Plan shall be 10% of our Common Stock outstanding immediately following consummation of the Business Combination shares (subject
to adjustment as provided by Section 3(b)); provided that no more than 66,860 shares of Company Stock may be granted as

counted against this limit as one share of Company Stock for every one Option or Stock Appreciation Right awarded. Such shares
of Company Stock may be authorized but unissued shares of Company Stock or authorized and issued shares of Company Stock held in
the Company’s treasury.


 


(b)       Adjustment
for Change in Capitalization.


 


(i)       
In the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares, stock rights offering, liquidation, or similar event
affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries (each, a “Corporate Event”) or a stock dividend, stock
split, reverse stock split, separation, spinoff, reorganization, extraordinary dividend of cash or other property, share combination,
or recapitalization or similar event affecting the capital structure of the Company (each, a “Share Change”),
the Committee or the Board shall make such equitable and appropriate substitutions or adjustments to (A) the aggregate number and
kind of shares of Company Stock or other securities reserved for issuance and delivery under the Plan, (B) the various maximum
limitations set forth in Section 3(a) upon certain types of Awards and upon the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards,
(C) the number and kind of shares of Company Stock or other securities subject to outstanding Awards and (D) the Exercise Price
or Base Price of outstanding Awards.


 


(ii)       In
the case of Corporate Events, such adjustments may include, without limitation, (A) the cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange
for payments of cash, securities or other property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such
Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board, in its discretion (it being understood that in the case of a Corporate Event
with respect to which stockholders receive consideration other than publicly-traded equity securities of the ultimate surviving
entity, any such determination by the Committee that the value of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall for this purpose
be deemed to equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each share of Company Stock pursuant to
such Corporate Event over the Exercise Price of such Option or the Base Price of such Stock Appreciation Right shall conclusively
be deemed valid), (B) the substitution of securities or other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities
of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for the shares of Company Stock subject to outstanding Awards
and (C) in connection with a sale of a subsidiary, Affiliate, or division, arranging for the assumption of Awards, or replacement
of Awards with new awards based on securities or other property (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company
and securities of entities other than the Company), by the affected subsidiary, Affiliate, or division or by the entity that controls
such subsidiary, Affiliate, or division following such Corporate Event (as well as any corresponding adjustments to Awards that
remain based upon Company Stock).


 






    4 


     


    




 


(iii)      The
Committee may, in its discretion, adjust any performance-based vesting conditions applicable to any Awards to reflect any unusual
or non-recurring events and other extraordinary items, impact of charges for restructurings, discontinued operations and the cumulative
effects of accounting or tax changes, each as defined by generally accepted accounting principles or as identified in the Company’s
financial statements, notes to the financial statements, management’s discussion and analysis or other Company filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure
or capital structure of the Company or the applicable subsidiary, division or other operational unit of, or the manner in which
any of the foregoing conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render any performance-based vesting conditions to
be unsuitable, the Committee may modify such conditions or the related minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in
part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable.


 


(c)       Reuse
of Shares. If any shares of Company Stock subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged or surrendered, or if an
Award otherwise terminates or expires without the issuance or distribution of shares of Company Stock to the Participant, the shares
of Company Stock with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination
or expiration, again be available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares of Company Stock that are exchanged
by a Participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in connection with any Award under the Plan, as well as
any shares of Company Stock exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company or any Affiliate to satisfy the tax withholding
obligations related to any Award under the Plan, shall be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan, and notwithstanding that
a Stock Appreciation Right is settled by the delivery of a net number of shares of Company Stock, the full number of shares of
Company Stock underlying such Stock Appreciation Right shall not be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan. To the extent
an Award is paid or settled in cash, the number of shares of Company Stock with respect to which such payment or settlement is
made shall again be available for grants of Awards pursuant to the Plan. Shares of Company Stock underlying Awards that can only
be settled in cash shall not be counted against the aggregate number of shares of Company Stock available for Awards under the
Plan.


 


		4.	Administration of the Plan.



 


(a)       The
Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the following authority, to exercise in its discretion, subject
to and not inconsistent with the express provisions of the Plan: to administer the Plan and to exercise all the powers and authorities
either specifically granted to it under the Plan or necessary or advisable in the administration of the Plan, including, without
limitation: the authority to grant Awards; to select the Eligible Individuals to whom Awards may from time to time be granted and
the time or times at which Awards shall be granted; to determine the type and number of Awards to be granted, the number of shares
of Company Stock or cash or other property to which an Award may relate and the terms, conditions, restrictions and performance
criteria relating to any Award; to determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled, cancelled,
forfeited, exchanged, or surrendered; to determine whether an Award may be settled in cash and/or shares of the Company; to waive
any of the terms, conditions, restrictions and performance criteria of any Award, including to accelerate the vesting or lapse
of restrictions of any outstanding Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee, in its discretion, determines;
to construe and interpret the Plan and any Award; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to
determine the terms and provisions of Award Agreements; and to make all other determinations that it deems necessary or advisable
for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may, in its discretion, without amendment to the Plan, (i) accelerate the date
on which any Option or Stock Appreciation Right becomes exercisable, (ii) waive or amend the operation of Plan provisions respecting
exercise after Termination of Service; provided that the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may not be extended
beyond ten years from the date of grant or the original term of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, if less. Notwithstanding
anything in the Plan to the contrary, the powers and authority of the Committee shall be exercised by the Board in the case of
Awards made to non-employee Directors.


 






    5 


     


    

 


(b)       The
Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan or any Award Agreement and all decisions
and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan shall be final, binding, and conclusive on all persons, including
the Company, its stockholders, Eligible Individuals and Participants, and their estates and beneficiaries. Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, any discretionary authority provided or invested in the Committee
or the Company (or to Persons who are delegated such authority pursuant to Section 4(c)) is intended to be, and shall be deemed
to be, exercised in the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee or the Company (or to Persons who are delegated such authority
pursuant to Section 4(c)), respectively.


 


(c)       To
the extent permitted by applicable law or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the shares
of Company Stock are listed, quoted or traded, the Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee of one or
more members of the Board, or to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take
other administrative actions pursuant to this Section 4; provided that, in no event shall such individuals be delegated
the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, (i) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act,
or (ii) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided further, that any delegation of administrative authority shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under
applicable securities laws or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the shares of Company
Stock are listed, quoted or traded. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or
Committee specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Board or Committee, as the case may be, may at any time rescind the
authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee.


 


		5.	Eligibility.



 


Eligible Individuals
that the Committee (or, in the case of non-employee Directors, the Board) shall select, from time to time, shall be eligible to
receive Awards pursuant to the Plan.


 


		6.	Awards Under the Plan; Award Agreement.



 


The Committee may grant
Awards in such amounts and with such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan.
Each Award granted under the Plan (except an unconditional Stock Bonus) shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement which shall contain
such provisions as the Committee may in its discretion deem necessary or desirable and which are not in conflict with the terms
of the Plan. By accepting an Award, a Participant shall be deemed to agree that the Award shall be subject to all of the terms
and provisions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.


 


		7.	Options.



 


(a)       Identification
of Options. Unless an Option is identified in the applicable Award Agreement as an Incentive Stock Option, the Option shall
be a Nonqualified Stock Option. All Options shall be non-transferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or
except as otherwise determined by the Committee for estate planning purposes with respect to a Nonqualified Stock Option.


 


(b)       Exercise
Price. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Option shall set forth the amount per share (the “Exercise Price”)
to be paid by the Participant to the Company to exercise such Option. The Exercise Price shall be equal to or greater than the
Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock on the date of the grant of the Option. Except in connection with an adjustment described
in Section 3(b), in no event shall the Exercise Price of an Option be reduced following the grant of the Option, nor shall the
Option be cancelled in exchange for a replacement Option with a lower Exercise Price or in exchange for another type of Award or
cash payment, in each case without stockholder approval. In addition, the Committee shall not have the authority to grant an Option
which provides that the Participant will be granted a new Option (commonly referred to as a “reload option”) for a
number of shares of Company Stock equal to the number of shares of Company Stock surrendered by the Participant upon exercise of
all or a part of the original Option.


 






    6 


     


    




 


(c)
       Term and Exercise of Options.


 


		(i)	Each Option shall become exercisable at the time or times specified by the Committee and set forth
in the applicable Award Agreement. At the time of grant of an Option, the Committee may impose such restrictions or conditions
to the exercisability of the Option as it, in its discretion, deems appropriate. Subject to Section 7(d) hereof, the Committee
shall determine and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the expiration date of each Option, which shall be no later than
the 10-year anniversary of the date of grant of the Option (or 5-year anniversary in the case of a an Incentive Stock Option granted
to an individual who owns (or is deemed to own under the Code) Company Stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company), provided that, if the term of a Nonqualified Stock Option would expire at
a time when trading in the shares of Company Stock is prohibited by the Company’s insider trading policy, the term of the
Option shall be extended automatically until the 30th day following the expiration of such prohibition (as long as such extension
shall not violate Section 409A of the Code).



 


		(ii)	An Option shall be exercised by delivering the form of notice of exercise provided by the Company.
Payment of the Exercise Price for shares of Company Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall be made on the effective
date of such exercise by one or a combination of the following means: (A) in cash or by personal check, certified check, bank cashier’s
check or wire transfer; (B) in shares of Company Stock owned by the Participant and valued at their Fair Market Value on the effective
date of such exercise; (C) by withholding shares of Company Stock otherwise deliverable upon exercise of an Option; or (D) by any
such other methods (including broker-assisted cashless exercise) as the Committee may from time to time authorize; provided
that, in the case of a Participant who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the method of making such payment shall be
in compliance with applicable law. Except as authorized by the Committee, any payment in shares of Company Stock shall be effected
by the delivery of such shares of Company Stock to the Secretary of the Company, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by stock
powers duly executed in blank, together with any other documents and evidences as the Secretary of the Company shall require. If
the Committee decides that payment will be made in shares of Company Stock, and the amount payable results in a fractional share
of Company Stock, payment for the fractional share of Company Stock will be made in cash.



 


		(iii)	Certificates for shares of Company Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall be issued
in the name of or for the account of the Participant or other person entitled to receive such shares of Company Stock, and delivered
to the Participant or such other person as soon as practicable following the effective date on which the Option is exercised or
the Participant’s ownership of the Company Stock shall be registered by the Company in book entry form.



 


(d)       Provisions
Relating to Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to Employees of the Company and any “subsidiary
corporation” (within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code) of the Company. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
Value of shares of Company Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant
during any calendar year under the Plan and any other stock option plan of the Company and any “subsidiary corporation”
(within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code) shall exceed $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options.
For purposes of this Section 7(d), Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date on which the Incentive Stock Option is
granted. Each Award Agreement with respect to an Incentive Stock Option shall require the Participant to notify the Company of
any disposition of shares of Company Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option under the circumstances
described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), within 10 days of such disposition. No
Incentive Stock Option may be granted to an individual if, at the time of the proposed grant, such individual owns (or is deemed
to own under the Code) stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company
unless (A) the Exercise Price of such Incentive Stock Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock
at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted and (B) such Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration
of 5 years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.


 






    7 


     


    




 


(e)       Effect
of Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant and set forth in the applicable
Award Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than (i) Cause or (ii) death,
each Option granted to such Participant, to the extent that it is exercisable at the time of such Termination of Service, shall
remain exercisable for the 90-day period following such Termination of Service, but in no event following the expiration of its
term. Except as may be otherwise determined by the Committee, each Option that remains unexercisable as of the date of such a Termination
of Service shall be terminated at the time of such Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the
time of grant as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service on account
of the death of the Participant, each Option granted to such Participant that is outstanding as of the date of death shall become
fully exercisable and shall remain exercisable by the Participant’s legal representatives, heirs or legatees for the 1-year
period following such Termination of Service, but in no event following the expiration of its term. In the event of a Participant’s
Termination of Service for Cause, each outstanding Option granted to such Participant shall terminate immediately upon such Termination
of Service.


 


		8.	Stock Appreciation Rights.



 


(a)       At
the time of grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee may impose such restrictions or conditions to the exercisability
of the Stock Appreciation Right as it, in its discretion, deems appropriate. The term of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not exceed
ten years from the date of grant. In addition, the base price per share (the “Base Price”) of a Stock
Appreciation Right shall be equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock on the date of grant.


 


(b)       All
Stock Appreciation Rights shall be non-transferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or except as otherwise
determined by the Committee for estate planning purposes.


 


(c)       Upon
the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the holder will be entitled to receive payment of an amount determined by multiplying:


 


		(i)	the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Company Stock on the date of exercise of such
Stock Appreciation Right over the Base Price of the Stock Appreciation Right, by



 


		(ii)	the number of shares of Company Stock as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.



 


(d)       Notwithstanding
subsection (c) above, the Committee may impose a limitation on the amount payable upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right.
Any such limitation shall be determined as of the date of grant and indicated in the applicable Award Agreement.


 


(e)       Payment
of the amount determined under subsection (c) above may be made solely in whole shares of Company Stock valued at their Fair Market
Value on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right or alternatively, in the discretion of the Committee, solely in cash
or a combination of cash and shares of Company Stock. Except as authorized by the Committee, any payment in shares of Company Stock
shall be effected by the delivery of such shares of Company Stock to the Secretary of the Company, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied
by stock powers duly executed in blank, together with any other documents and evidences as the Secretary of the Company shall require.
If the Committee decides that payment will be made in shares of Company Stock, and the amount payable results in a fractional share
of Company Stock, payment for the fractional share of Company Stock will be made in cash.

(f)        Other
than with respect to an adjustment described in Section 3(b), in no event shall the Base Price with respect to a Stock Appreciation
Right be reduced following the grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, nor shall a Stock Appreciation Right be cancelled in exchange
for a replacement Stock Appreciation Right with a lower Base Price or in exchange for another type of Award or cash payment without
stockholder approval.


 


(g)       Unless
otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s
Termination of Service for any reason other than (i) Cause or (ii) death, each Stock Appreciation Right granted to such Participant,
to the extent that it is exercisable at the time of such Termination of Service, shall remain exercisable for the 90-day period
following such Termination of Service, but in no event following the expiration of its term. Except as may be otherwise determined
by the Committee, any Stock Appreciation Right that is not exercisable as of the date of such a Termination of Service shall be
terminated at the time of such Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant as set
forth in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Service on account of the death of
the Participant, each Stock Appreciation Right granted to such Participant that is outstanding as of the date of death shall become
fully exercisable and shall remain exercisable by the Participant’s legal representatives, heirs or legatees for the one-year
period following such Termination of Service, but in no event following the expiration of its term. In the event of a Participant’s
Termination of Service for Cause, each outstanding Stock Appreciation Right granted to such Participant shall terminate immediately
upon such Termination of Service.


 


		9.	Restricted Stock.



 


(a)       Price.
At the time of the grant of an Award of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall determine the price, if any, to be paid
by the Participant for each share of Restricted Stock subject to the Award.


 


(b)       Vesting
Date. At the time of the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall establish a vesting date or vesting dates
with respect to such Award. The Committee may divide the shares of Restricted Stock constituting the Award into classes and assign
a different vesting date for each class. If all conditions to the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock are satisfied, subject
to Section 9(h), upon the occurrence of the vesting date such share of Restricted Stock shall vest and the restrictions of Section
9(d) with respect thereto shall lapse.


 


(c)       Conditions
to Vesting. At the time of the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock, the Committee in its discretion, may impose such restrictions
or conditions to the vesting of such Award as it, deems appropriate. The Committee may also provide that the vesting or forfeiture
of shares of Restricted Stock may be based upon the achievement of, or failure to achieve, certain levels of performance and may
provide for partial vesting of Restricted Stock in the event that the maximum level of performance is not met if the minimum level
of performance has been equaled or exceeded. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9(c) to the contrary, unless otherwise provided
by the Committee pursuant to Section 9(h) or Section 13, Restricted Stock that vests based on achievement of performance goals
or levels of performance may not become fully vested prior to the first anniversary of the date upon which such Restricted Stock
is granted.


 


(d)       Restrictions
on Transfer Prior to Vesting. Prior to the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock, such Restricted Stock may not be transferred,
assigned or otherwise disposed of, and no transfer of a Participant’s rights with respect to such Restricted Stock, whether
voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be permitted. Immediately upon any attempt to transfer such rights,
such shares of Restricted Stock, and all of the rights related thereto, shall be forfeited by the Participant.


 


(e)       Dividends
on Restricted Stock. The Committee, in its discretion, may require that any dividends paid on shares of Restricted Stock be
held in escrow until all restrictions on such shares of Restricted Stock have lapsed.


 


(f)       Issuance
of Certificates. The Committee may provide, upon such terms and conditions as it determines, that (i) a certificate or certificates
representing the shares of Company Stock underlying a Restricted Stock Award shall be registered in the Participant’s name
and bear an appropriate legend specifying that such shares of Company Stock are not transferable and are subject to the provisions
of the Plan and the restrictions, terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, (ii) such certificate or certificates
shall be held in escrow by the Company on behalf of the Participant until such shares of Restricted Stock become vested or are
forfeited or (iii) the Participant’s ownership of the Restricted Stock shall be registered by the Company in book entry form.


 






    9 


     


    




 


(g)       Consequences
of Vesting. Upon the vesting of a share of Restricted Stock, the restrictions of Section 9(d) shall lapse with respect to such
share of Restricted Stock. As determined by the Committee, following the date on which a share of Restricted Stock vests, the Company
shall, make a book entry record of such share of Restricted Stock or cause to be delivered to the Participant to whom such shares
of Restricted Stock were granted, a certificate evidencing such share of Restricted Stock, which may bear a restrictive legend,
if the Committee determines such a legend to be appropriate.


 


(h)       Effect
of Termination of Service. Except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Award Agreement, and subject to the Committee’s
authority under Section 4 hereof, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason, any and all shares of Restricted
Stock to which restrictions on transferability apply shall be immediately forfeited by the Participant and transferred to, and
reacquired by, the Company. In the event of a forfeiture of shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this section, the Company shall
repay to the Participant (or the Participant’s estate) any amount paid by the Participant for such shares of Restricted Stock.
In the event that a Participant forfeits any shares of Restricted Stock and the Company requires that the Participant to return
shares of Restricted Stock, it shall also have the right to require the return of all dividends paid on such shares of Restricted
Stock, whether by termination of any escrow arrangement under which such dividends are held or otherwise.


 


		10.	Restricted Stock Units.



 


(a)       Vesting
Date. At the time of the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock Units, the Committee shall establish a vesting date or vesting
dates with respect to such Award. The Committee may divide such Restricted Stock Units into classes and assign a different vesting
date for each class. If all conditions to the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit are satisfied, subject to Section 10(d), upon
the occurrence of the vesting date such Restricted Stock Unit shall vest.


 


(b)       Benefit
Upon Vesting. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, upon the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit, the Participant
shall be paid, within 30 days of the date on which such Restricted Stock Unit vests, an amount, in cash and/or shares of Company
Stock, as determined by the Committee. The amount per Restricted Stock Unit shall be equal to the sum of (i) the Fair Market Value
of a share of Company Stock on the date on which such Restricted Stock Units vest and (ii) the aggregate amount of cash dividends
paid with respect to a share of Company Stock during the period commencing on the date on which the Restricted Stock Units were
granted and terminating on the date on which such Restricted Stock Units vest.


 


(c)       Conditions
to Vesting. At the time of the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Committee in its discretion, may impose such restrictions
or vesting conditions to the vesting of such Restricted Stock Units as it deems appropriate.


 


(d)       Effect
of Termination of Service. Except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Award Agreement or determined by the Committee
in its discretion, Restricted Stock Units that have not vested, together with any dividend equivalents deemed to have been credited
with respect to such unvested Restricted Stock Units, shall be forfeited upon the Participant’s Termination of Service for
any reason.


 


		11.	Stock Bonuses.



 


In the event that the
Committee grants an Award of a Stock Bonus to a Participant, a certificate for the shares of Company Stock constituting such Stock
Bonus shall be issued in the name of the Participant to whom such grant was made and delivered to such Participant as soon as practicable
after the date on which such Stock Bonus is payable, or, as determined by the Committee, the Company shall make a book entry record
of such share of Company Stock.


 






    10 


     


    




 


		12.	Other Stock-Based Awards.



 


Other Stock-Based Awards
may be granted either alone or in addition to Other Stock-Based Awards (other than in connection with Options or Stock Appreciation
Rights) under the Plan. Any dividend or dividend equivalent awarded under the Plan shall be subject to the same restrictions, conditions
and risks of forfeiture as the underlying Award. Cash incentive awards may be denominated in units that have a dollar value established
by the Committee as of the date of grant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the discretion to determine
the persons to whom, and the time or times at which, such Other Stock-Based Awards discretion shall be granted, the number of shares
of Company Stock to be granted pursuant to such Other Stock-Based Awards, and the manner in which such Other Stock-Based Awards
shall be settled (for example, in shares of Company Stock or cash), or the conditions to the vesting and/or payment or settlement
of such Other Stock-Based Awards (which may include, but not be limited to, achievement of performance goals) and all other terms
and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards.


 


		13.	Change in Control Provisions.



 


(a)       Unless
otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the applicable Award Agreement, and subject to Section 3(b), in the event
of a Change in Control, the Committee, in its discretion, may take such actions with respect to outstanding Awards as determines
to be appropriate, including without limitation:


 


		(i)	provide that any outstanding Award that is not assumed or substituted in connection with a Change
in Control, immediately upon the occurrence of the Change in Control, such Award shall become fully vested and exercisable and
the restrictions, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any such Award granted shall lapse, and



 


		(ii)	provide that each Award shall, immediately upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, be cancelled
in exchange for a payment in cash or securities in an amount equal to (A) the excess of the consideration paid per share of Company
Stock in the Change in Control over the exercise or purchase price (if any) per share of Company Stock subject to the Award multiplied
by (B) the number of shares of Company Stock granted under the Award. If the amount determined pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence is zero, such Award may be cancelled pursuant to this Section 13(a) without payment of any consideration to the affected
Participant. The Committee shall not be required to treat all Awards similarly for purposes of this Section 13(a).



 


(b)       Notwithstanding
the foregoing, for each Award that constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Code, if required to
avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred
for purposes of vesting or the lapse of restrictions, but not purposes of the payment or settlement of such Award under the Plan
unless such Change in Control constitutes a “change in the ownership of the corporation,” a “change in effective
control of the corporation” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the corporation,”
within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code.


 


(c)       The
obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially
all of the assets and business of the Company.


 


		14.	Rights as a Stockholder.



 


No person shall have
any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Company Stock covered by or relating to any Award until the date of record
issuance of such shares of Company Stock in the books of the Company or the issuance of a stock certificate with respect to such
shares of Company Stock. Except for adjustments provided in Section 3(b), no adjustment to any Award shall be made for dividends
or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to the date such book entry is made or stock certificate is issued.


 






    11 


     


    




 


		15.	No Employment Rights; No Right to Award.



 


Nothing contained in
the Plan or any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Participant any right with respect to the continuation of employment by or
provision of services to the Company and its Affiliates or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates,
subject to the terms of any separate agreement to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment or service or to increase
or decrease the compensation of the Participant. No person shall have any claim or right to receive an Award hereunder. The Committee’s
granting of an Award to a Participant at any time shall neither require the Committee to grant any other Award to such Participant
or other person at any time nor preclude the Committee from making subsequent grants to such Participant or any other person.


 


		16.	Securities Matters and Regulations.



 


(a)       Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Company Stock with respect to any Award granted
under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities
laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.
The Committee may require, as a condition of the issuance and delivery of certificates evidencing shares of Company Stock pursuant
to the terms hereof, that the recipient of such shares of Company Stock make such agreements and representations, and that such
certificates bear such legends, as the Committee, in its discretion, deems necessary or advisable.


 


(b)       Each
Award is subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Committee determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration
or qualification of Company Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan is required by any securities exchange or under any state or federal
law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection
with, the grant of an Award or the issuance of Company Stock, no such Award shall be granted or payment made or Company Stock issued,
in whole or in part, unless listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any
conditions not acceptable to the Committee.


 


(c)       In
the event that the disposition of Company Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then-current registration statement
under the Securities Act and is not otherwise exempt from such registration, such Company Stock shall be restricted against transfer
to the extent required by the Securities Act, and the Committee may require a Participant receiving Company Stock pursuant to the
Plan, as a condition precedent to receipt of such Company Stock, to represent to the Company in writing that the Company Stock
acquired by such Participant is acquired for investment only and not with a view to distribution.


 


(d)       The
intent of the Plan is to qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of
the Plan or any Award Agreement does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent
permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3
is revised or replaced, the Committee, acting on behalf of the Board, may exercise discretion to modify the Plan in any respect
necessary to satisfy the requirements of the revised exemption or its replacement.


 


		17.	Withholding Taxes.



 


Whenever cash is to
be paid pursuant to an Award, the Company or any of its Affiliates shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient
to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever shares of Company Stock are to be
delivered pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an
amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. With the approval of the
Committee, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery shares of
Company Stock having a value equal to the amount of tax required to be withheld. Such shares of Company Stock shall be valued at
their Fair Market Value on the date of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined. Amounts with respect to fractional
shares of Company Stock shall be settled in cash. Such a withholding election may be made with respect to all or any portion of
the shares of Company Stock to be delivered pursuant to an Award.


 






    12 


     


    




 


		18.	Notification of Election Under Section 83(b) of the Code.



 


If any Participant
shall, in connection with the acquisition of shares of Company Stock under the Plan, make the election permitted under Section
83(b) of the Code, such Participant shall notify the Company of such election within 10 days of filing notice of the election with
the Internal Revenue Service.


 


		19.	Amendment or Termination of the Plan.



 


The Board may, at any
time, suspend or terminate the Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever; provided, however, that stockholder
approval shall be required for any such amendment if and to the extent such approval is required in order to comply with applicable
law or stock exchange listing requirement. Nothing herein shall restrict the Committee’s ability to exercise its discretionary
authority pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, which discretion may be exercised without amendment to the Plan. No
amendment, suspension or termination will materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant under an Award or the Plan
without the consent of the Participant.


 


		20.	Transfers Upon Death.



 


Upon the death of a
Participant, outstanding Awards granted to such Participant may be exercised only by the executor or administrator of the Participant’s
estate or by a person who shall have acquired the right to such exercise by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. No
transfer of an Award by will or the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Committee
shall have been furnished with (a) written notice thereof and with a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Committee may
deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and (b) an agreement by the transferee to comply with all the terms and
conditions of the Award that are or would have been applicable to the Participant and to be bound by the acknowledgments made by
the Participant in connection with the grant of the Award.


 


		21.	Expenses and Receipts.



 


The expenses of the
Plan shall be paid by the Company. Any proceeds received by the Company in connection with any Award may be used for general corporate
purposes.


 


		22.	Effective Date and Term of Plan.



 


The Plan was
adopted and approved by the Board on July 28, 2018 and approved by the stockholders of the Company on July 19, 2018 (the
“Effective Date”).


 


		23.	Participant Rights.



 


No Participant shall
have any claim to be granted any award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment for Participants.


 


		24.	Unfunded Status of Awards.



 


The Plan is intended
to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made
to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give any such Participant any
rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.


 






    13 


     


    




 


		25.	Foreign Employees and Foreign Law Considerations.



 


The Committee may grant
Awards to Eligible Individuals who are foreign nationals, who are located outside the United States or who are not compensated
from a payroll maintained in the United States, or who are otherwise subject to (or could cause the Company to be subject to) tax,
legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States, on such terms and conditions different
from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement
of the purposes of the Plan, and, in furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications, amendments, procedures,
or subplans as may be necessary or advisable to comply with such tax, legal or regulatory provisions.


 


		26.	No Fractional Shares.



 


No fractional shares
of Company Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. Unless otherwise provided herein, the Committee shall determine
whether cash, Other Stock-Based Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares of Company
Stock or whether such fractional shares of Company Stock or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.


 


		27.	Beneficiary.



 


A Participant may file
with the Committee a written designation of a beneficiary on such form as may be prescribed by the Committee and may, from time
to time, amend or revoke such designation. If no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, the executor or administrator
of the Participant’s estate shall be deemed to be the Participant’s beneficiary.


 


		28.	Paperless Administration.



 


In the event that the
Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third-party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or
exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation,
granting or exercise of Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system.


 


		29.	Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation Plans.



 


The adoption of the
Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any of its Affiliates. Nothing in
the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to establish any other forms of incentives
or compensation for Employees, Directors or Consultants.


 


		30.	Gender and Number; Captions.



 


Except where otherwise
indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; any feminine term used herein also shall
include the masculine; and the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. Captions and headings
are given to the articles, sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings
shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof.


 


		31.	Severability.



 


If any provision of
the Plan or any Award Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed modified to the
extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the other provisions of the Plan or Award
Agreement shall not be affected but shall be applied as if the invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included in the
Plan.


 






    14 


     


    




 


		32.	Applicable Law.



 


Except to the extent
preempted by any applicable federal law, the Plan shall be construed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State
of Delaware without reference to its principles of conflicts of law.


 


		33.	Clawback.



 


The Awards granted
under the Plan are subject to the terms of the Company’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as it may be in effect from
time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, as well as any other policy of the Company that applies to Awards,
such as anti-hedging or pledging policies, as they may be in effect from time to time.


 


		34.	Section 409A Compliance.



 


The Plan as well as
payments and benefits under the Plan are intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly,
to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered to be in compliance therewith. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid taxation and/or tax penalties under Section
409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of the Plan
and no payment shall be due to the Participant under the Plan or any Award until the Participant would be considered to have incurred
a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described
in the Plan that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be
treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan,
to the extent that any Awards are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any
individual tax and penalty interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the settlement and payment of such Awards shall
instead be made on the first business day after the date that is 6 months following such separation from service (or death, if
earlier). Whenever a payment under an Award specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days, the actual date of payment
within the specified period shall be within the discretion of the Company. If under an Award an amount is to be paid in two or
more installments, for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each installment shall be treated as a separate payment.


 


		35.	Forfeiture and Compensation Recovery.



 


(a)       The
Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award
will be subject to reduction, cancellation or forfeiture or recovery by the Company upon the occurrence of certain specified events,
in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of the Award. Such events may include a Termination of
Service for Cause, violation of material Company policies, breach of noncompetition or other restrictive covenants that apply to
the Participant, a determination that the payment of the Award was based on an incorrect determination that financial or other
criteria were met or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company or its Affiliates.


 


(b)       Awards
and any payments or compensation associated therewith may be made subject to forfeiture or recovery by the Company or other action
pursuant to any compensation recovery policy adopted by the Board or the Committee at any time, including in response to requirements
of Section 10D of the Exchange Act and any implementing rules and regulations thereunder, or as otherwise required by law. Any
Award Agreement may be unilaterally amended by the Committee to comply with such compensation or recovery policy.
