Board
of Directors Services Agreement


 


This
Board of Directors Services Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated July 25, 2018 (the “Effective Date”),
is entered into between Hyrecar Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Brooke Skinner Ricketts, an individual
(“Director”).


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS,
the Company desires to retain the services of Director for the benefit of the Company and its stockholders; and


 


WHEREAS,
Director desires to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors for the period of time and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein.


 


NOW,
THEREFORE, for consideration and as set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


AGREEMENT


 


1. Board
Duties.


 


(a) Director
agrees to provide services to the Company as a member of the Board of Directors as of the Effective Date. Director shall, for
so long as he remains a member of the Board of Directors, meet with the other members of the Board of Directors and/or the Company’s
executive officers upon request (including, at least quarterly meetings to take place either in-person at the Company’s
corporate offices or telephonically), at dates and times mutually agreeable to the parties, to discuss any matter involving the
Company (including any subsidiary). Director acknowledges and agrees that the Company may rely upon Director’s expertise
in business disciplines where Director has significant experience with respect to the Company’s business operations and
that such requests may require substantial additional time and efforts in addition to Director’s customary service as a
member of the Board of Directors.


 


(b) Director
understands that as a member of the Board of Directors he is bound by the duties of care, loyalty and good faith. As such, Director
may not use Director’s position of trust and confidence to further Director’s private interests, Director must inform
himself of all material information reasonably available before voting on a transaction and Director may act as a member of the
Board of Directors only for the purpose of advancing the best interests of the Company and all of its stockholders, may not intentionally
violate the law and may not consciously disregard Director’s duties to the Company (including any subsidiary) and its stockholders.
Membership on the Board of Directors shall require adherence to board member conduct policies adopted by the Board of Directors
and enforced equally upon all directors.


 


2. Compensation.
As compensation for the services provided herein, subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Director
shall receive non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 72,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustment
for any reverse or forward stock split), issued under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”),
in accordance with the terms of a Stock Option Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Subject
to the terms of forfeiture, termination and acceleration provided for in the Plan, each such Option shall vest over 24 months
in equal installments of 8 quarters, with an exercise price of $4.61 per share.


 






    1


     


    

 





3. Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company will reimburse Director for qualified business expenses incurred on behalf of
the Company in discharging Director’s duties as member of the Board of Directors, provided that any such expense in excess
of $100 is approved in advance by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and provided further
that Director shall provide the Chief Financial Officer with reasonable substantiating documentation relating to such expenses
prior to reimbursement. Upon the conclusion of Director’s service hereunder, any property of the Company, including, without
limitation, laptops, personal computers and related equipment, used by Director may (if the Company agrees) be purchased by Director
from the Company at its then current fair market value, to be determined in good faith by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company,
or returned to the Company.


 


4. Non-Disparagement.
Director agrees to forbear from making, causing to be made, publishing, ratifying or endorsing any and all disparaging remarks,
derogatory statements or comments to any third party with respect to the Company and its affiliates, including, without limitation,
the Company’s parent, subsidiaries, officers, directors and employees (collectively, “Company Parties”) . Further,
Director hereby agrees to forbear from making any public or non-confidential statement with respect to any of the Company Parties.
The duties and obligations of this paragraph 4 shall continue following the termination of this Agreement.


 


5. Confidentiality. Director
agrees that Director will have access to and become acquainted with confidential proprietary information of the Company and
its subsidiaries (“Confidential Information”) which is owned by the Company and its subsidiaries and is
regularly used in the operation of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ businesses. As used in this Agreement, the
term “Confidential Information” shall mean proprietary and non-public information that is not disclosed by the
Company in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Director agrees that the term “Confidential
Information” as used in this Agreement is to be broadly interpreted and includes (i) information that has, or could
have, commercial value for the business in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is engaged, or in which the Company
or its subsidiaries may engage at a later time, and (ii) information that, if disclosed without authorization, could be
detrimental to the economic interests of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. Director agrees that the term
“Confidential Information” includes, without limitation, any patent, patent application, copyright, trademark,
trade name, service mark, service name, “know-how,” negative “know-how,” trade secrets, customer and
supplier identities, characteristics and terms of agreement, details of customer or consultant contracts, pricing policies,
operational methods, marketing plans or strategies, product development techniques or plans, business acquisitions plans,
science or technical information, ideas, discoveries, designs, computer programs (including source codes), financial
forecasts, unpublished financial information, budgets, processes, procedures, formulae, improvements or other proprietary or
intellectual property of the Company, whether or not in written or tangible form, and whether or not registered, and
including all memoranda, notes, summaries, plans, reports, records, documents and other evidence thereof. Director
acknowledges that all Confidential Information, whether prepared by Director or otherwise acquired by Director in any other
way, shall remain the exclusive property of the Company. Director promises and agrees that Director shall not misuse,
misappropriate, or disclose in any way to any person or entity any of the Company’s Confidential Information, either
directly or indirectly, nor will Director use the Confidential Information in any way or at any time except as required in
the course of Director’s business relationship with the Company. Director agrees that the sale or unauthorized use or
disclosure of any of the Company’s Confidential Information constitutes unfair competition. Director promises and
agrees not to engage in any unfair competition with the Company and will take measures that are appropriate to prevent its
employees or contractors from engaging in unfair competition with the Company. Director further agrees that, at any time,
upon the request of the Company and without further compensation, but at no expense to Director, Director shall perform any
lawful acts, including the execution of papers and oaths and the giving of testimony, that in the opinion of the Company, its
successors or assigns, may be necessary or desirable in order to obtain, sustain, reissue and renew, and in order to
enforce, perfect, record and maintain, patent applications and United States and foreign patents on the Company’s or
its subsidiaries’ inventions, and copyright registrations on the Company’s and its subsidiaries’
inventions. The duties and obligations of this paragraph 5 shall continue, even after the termination of this Agreement.


 






    2


     


    

 


6. Term.
Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of this Agreement and the duties and obligations of Director and the Company
under it shall continue until the earlier of (i) the date that the Company’s stockholders fail to re-elect Director as a
member of the Company’s Board of Directors, including as a result of the failure by the Company to nominate Director as
a candidate for election or (ii) the date that Director ceases to be a member of the Company’s Board of Directors for any
reason. Director may voluntarily resign Director’s position on the Board of Directors at any time and such resignation shall
not be considered a breach of this Agreement.


 


7. Cooperation.
Director will notify the Company promptly if Director is subpoenaed or otherwise served with legal process in any matter involving
the Company or any subsidiary and will cooperate in the review, defense or prosecution of any such matter. Director will notify
the Company if any attorney who is not representing the Company contacts or attempts to contact Director (other than Director’s
own legal counsel) to obtain information that in any way relates to the Company or any subsidiary, and Director will not discuss
any of these matters with any such attorney without first so notifying the Company and providing the Company with an opportunity
to have its attorney present during any meeting or conversation with any such attorney. In the event of any claim or litigation
against the Company or Director based upon any alleged conduct, acts or omissions of Director during Director’s tenure as
a director of the Company, Director will provide to the Company such information and documents as are necessary and reasonably
requested by the Company or its counsel, subject to restrictions imposed by federal or state securities laws or court order or
injunction. The foregoing shall be subject to the terms and conditions of any indemnification agreement entered into between the
Company and Director, the terms and conditions of which shall govern and shall supersede this paragraph 7 in the event of any
conflict between this paragraph 7 and such indemnification agreement.


 


8. Entire
Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter herein.


 


9. Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the law of the State of Delaware. Any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to this Agreement shall be filed in and heard and litigated solely before the federal courts of California located within Los
Angeles County. Each party generally and unconditionally accepts the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and venue therein.


 


10. Injunctive
Relief. It is agreed that the rights and benefits of the Company pursuant to Sections 1, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement are
unique and that no adequate remedy exists at law if Director shall fail to perform, or breaches, any of Director’s obligations
thereunder, that it would be difficult to determine the amount of damages resulting therefrom, and that any such breach would
cause irreparable injury to the Company. Therefore, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent or restrain
any such breach of this Agreement by Director.


 


11. Insurance.
The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance throughout the
term of Director’s service to the Company as a director, in amounts and with such carrier(s) and on such terms as determined by
the Board of Directors, or any committee of the Board of Directors empowered for such purpose.

This
Option shall become vested and exercisable, in whole or in part, according to the following vesting schedule: 


 


Termination
Period:


 


This
Option shall be exercisable for three months after Participant ceases to be a service provider, unless such termination is due

II. AGREEMENT


 


1.
Grant of Option. In consideration of the services to be rendered by Participant to the Company or any Affiliate
and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the Administrator hereby grants to Participant an option
(this “Option”) to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant in Part
I of this Agreement, at the Exercise Price per Share set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant in Part I of this Agreement
(the “Exercise Price”).


 






    1


     


    

 








If designated as an ISO in the Notice of
Stock Option Grant in Part I of this Agreement, this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option; provided,
however, that, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of the Shares with respect
to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of
the Company and any Affiliate) exceeds $100,000, such Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order
in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. Further, if for any reason this Option (or portion
thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, this Option (or portion
thereof) shall be regarded as a Nonstatutory Stock Option. In no event shall the Administrator, the Company or any Affiliate,
or any of their respective employees or directors, have any liability to Participant (or any other Person) due to the failure
of this Option (or portion thereof) to qualify for any reason as an Incentive Stock Option.


 


2.
Exercise of Option.


 


(a)
Right to Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with (i) the Vesting Schedule
set out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant in Part I of this Agreement and (ii) the applicable provisions of the Plan and this
Agreement. This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.


 


(b)
Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by delivery of an option exercise notice in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Option Exercise Notice”) or in a manner and pursuant
to such procedures as the Administrator may determine, which shall state the election to exercise this Option, the whole number
of Shares with respect to which this Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as may be required
by the Company. If someone other than Participant exercises this Option, as permitted by the Plan, then such Person must submit
documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company verifying that such Person has the legal right to exercise this Option. The
Option Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all exercised Shares, together with
any applicable tax withholding. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed
Option Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise Price, together with any applicable tax withholding.


 


3.
Participant’s Representations. If the Common Stock has not been registered under the Securities Act at the
time this Option is exercised, Participant shall concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Option, if required
by the Company, deliver to the Company Participant’s Investment Representation Statement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit C.


 


4. Lock-Up
Period. Participant will not, during the period commencing on the date of the final prospectus relating to the
registration by the Company for its own behalf of shares of its Common Stock or any other equity securities under the
Securities Act on a Form S-1 (excluding a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1) or Form S-3 and
ending on the date specified by the Company and the underwriter(s) (such period not to exceed 180 days in the case of the
Company’s IPO or 90 days in the case of any registration other than the Company’s
IPO, or such other period as may be requested by the Company or the underwriters to accommodate regulatory restrictions on
(i) the publication or other distribution of research reports and (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including the
restrictions contained in NASD Rule 2711(f)(4) or NYSE Rule 472(f)(4) (or any successor provisions or amendments thereto), as
applicable), (A) sell, dispose of, make any short sale of, offer, hypothecate, pledge, contract to sell, grant any option or
contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise
transfer or encumber, directly or indirectly, any Shares or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable
(directly or indirectly) for shares of Common Stock (whether such Shares or other securities are then held by Participant or
thereafter acquired) (such Shares and other securities, the “Lock-Up Shares”) or (B) enter into any
swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of
ownership of any Lock-Up Shares. The foregoing provisions of this Section II.4 shall not prevent the exercise of any
repurchase option in favor of the Company or apply to the sale of any Lock-Up Shares to an underwriter pursuant to an
underwriting agreement or to the Transfer (as defined in Section II.7) of any Lock-Up Shares by Participant to any trust for
the direct or indirect benefit of Participant or an Immediate Family Member (as defined in the Option Exercise Notice)
of Participant (provided that the trustee of the trust agrees, in writing, to be bound by the restrictions set forth
herein and provided further that any such Transfer (as defined in Section II.7) does not involve a disposition for
value). Participant shall execute such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the underwriters in
connection with any registered offering described in this Section II.4 and that are consistent with this Section II.4 or
necessary to give further effect thereto.


 



    2


     


    

 


5.
Method of Payment. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as
to all exercised Shares shall be by any of the following methods, or a combination thereof, at Participant’s
election:


 


(a) cash;


 


(b) check;


 


(c) surrender
of other Shares which (i) shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise and (ii) must be owned by Participant
free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, if accepting such Shares, in the Administrator’s
sole discretion, will not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company; or


 


(d) consideration
received by the Company under a cashless exercise program (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in
connection with the Plan.


 


Any
fraction of a Share which would be required to pay such aggregate Exercise Price shall be disregarded, and the remaining amount
due shall be paid in cash by Participant.


 


6.
Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised unless the issuance of Shares upon such exercise,
or the method of payment of consideration for such Shares, complies with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, Shares shall
be considered transferred to Participant, for income tax purposes, on the date on which this Option is exercised with respect
to such Shares.


 


7.
Non-Transferability of Option. This Option (or, prior to exercise, the Shares subject to this Option) may
not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner, including by entering into any short position,
any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” (as defined
in Rule 16a-1(h) and Rule 16a-1(b), respectively, of the Exchange Act), whether by operation of law or otherwise (“Transfer”),
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of Participant, only
by Participant. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns of Participant.


 


8.
Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only (i) within the term set out in the Notice of Stock Option
Grant in Part I of this Agreement and (ii) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.


 


9.
Tax Obligations.


 


(a)
Tax Withholding. Participant agrees to make appropriate arrangements satisfactory to the Company to pay or
provide for the satisfaction of all federal, state, local, foreign and other taxes (including Participant’s
FICA obligation) required to be withheld with respect to the exercise of this Option. Participant acknowledges and agrees that
the Company may refuse to honor the exercise of this Option, and refuse to deliver the Shares, if such withholding amounts are
not delivered by Participant at the time of exercise.


 


(b)
Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If this Option is an Incentive Stock Option, and if Participant
makes a “disposition” (as defined in Section 424 of the Code) of all or any portion of
the Shares acquired upon exercise of this Option within two years from the Grant Date set out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant
in Part I of this Agreement or within one year after issuance of the Shares acquired upon exercise of this Option, then Participant
shall immediately notify the Company in writing as to the occurrence of, and the price realized upon, such disposition. Participant
agrees that Participant may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Participant.


 






    3


     


    

 


(c)
Section 409A of the Code. Under Section 409A of the Code, an Option that was granted with a per Share exercise
price that is determined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date of grant (a “discount option”) may be considered “deferred
compensation.” An Option that is a “discount option” may result in (i) income
recognition by Participant prior to the exercise of this Option, (ii) an additional 20% federal income tax, (iii) potential penalty
and interest charges, and (iv) additional state income, penalty and interest tax to Participant (collectively, “409A
Penalties”). Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot guarantee, and has not guaranteed, that the IRS will
agree, in a later examination, that the per Share exercise price of this Option equals or exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share
on the date of grant. Participant agrees that, if the IRS determines that this Option is a “discount option,”
Participant shall be solely responsible for Participant’s costs related to such a determination, including
any 409A Penalties.


 


10.
General Provisions.


 


(a)
Power and Authority. Participant hereby represents to the Company that


 


(i)
Participant has full power and authority and legal capacity to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform fully
Participant’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Participant
does not conflict with, constitute a breach of or violate any arrangement, understanding or agreement to which Participant is
a party or by which Participant is bound, and (iii) this Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Participant
and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Participant, enforceable against Participant in accordance with its
terms.


 


(b) Survival.
The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made in or pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution
and delivery hereof and shall not be affected by any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto.


 


(c)
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of California without regard to conflict-of-law principles.


 


(d) Entire
Agreement. This Agreement, together with the attached Exhibits, sets forth the entire agreement
and understanding between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and
contemporaneous understandings, agreements, discussions, representations and warranties, both written and oral, between the
parties hereto, including any representations made during any interviews or relocation negotiations, with respect to such
subject matter. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement, the terms and
conditions of the Plan shall prevail.


 


(e)

be deemed given or delivered (i) when delivered personally, (ii) one business day after being deposited with an overnight courier

may designate by a notice delivered to the other party hereto.


 


(f)
Successors and Assigns; Transfers. The Company may assign this Agreement, and its rights and obligations
hereunder, in whole or in part, to any successor or assign (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, sale
of assets or stock or otherwise). Except as set forth herein, (x) neither this Agreement nor any rights, duties and obligations
hereunder shall be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by Participant without the Company’s prior
written consent and (y) any attempt by Participant to assign, transfer, delegate or sublicense this Agreement or any rights, duties
or obligations hereunder, without the Company’s prior written consent, shall be void. Subject to any restrictions
on transfer set forth herein, this Agreement shall be binding upon, and enforceable against, (i) the Company and its successors
and assigns and (ii) Participant and his or her heirs, executors, successors, assigns, administrators and other legal representatives.
Except as set forth herein, any transfer in violation of any restriction upon transfer contained in any provision hereof shall
be void, unless such restriction is waived in accordance with the terms hereof.


 






    4


     


    

 


(g)
Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented except by a written
instrument signed by an authorized representative of each party hereto. Any term or provision hereof may be waived, or the time
for its performance may be extended, by the party or parties entitled to the benefit thereof. Any such waiver or extension shall
be validly and sufficiently authorized for the purposes hereof if, as to any party, it is authorized in writing by an authorized
representative of such party. The failure or delay of any party to enforce at any time any provision hereof shall not be construed
to be a waiver of such provision, nor in any way to affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof or the right of any
party thereafter to enforce each and every such provision. No waiver of any breach hereof shall be held to constitute a waiver
of any other or subsequent breach.


 


(h)
Further Assurances. Participant shall execute and deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances
and assurances and take such further actions as may reasonably be necessary or desirable in the view of the Company to carry out
the purposes or intent hereof, including the applicable Exhibits attached hereto.


 


(i)
Severability. Should any provision contained herein be held as invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
such holding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding
upon the parties with any such modification to become a part hereof and treated as though originally set forth herein.


 


(j)
Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the words “include,” “includes”
and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” (ii) the word “or”
is not exclusive, (iii) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto,” “hereunder”
and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole, and (iv) with respect to the determination of any period of time,
“from” means “from and including” and “to” means “to but excluding.” Unless the
context otherwise requires, references herein: (A) to a Section or an Exhibit mean a Section or an Exhibit of, or attached to,
this Agreement; (B) to agreements, instruments and other documents shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, supplements
and other modifications thereto; (C) to statutes or regulations are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory
provisions consolidating, amending or replacing the statute or regulation referred to; (D) to any Person includes such Person’s
successors and assigns, but, if applicable, only if such successors and assigns are not prohibited by this Agreement; and (E)
to any gender includes each other gender. The Exhibits attached hereto shall be construed with, and as an integral part of, this
Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein. The titles, captions and headings herein are for convenience
of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation hereof. This Agreement shall be construed without regard
to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument
to be drafted.


 


(k)
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original,
but all of which, when taken together, shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become binding when one or more
counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other party hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of a signature page to this Agreement shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
The exchange of copies of this Agreement and of signature pages hereto by facsimile transmission or e-mail shall constitute effective
execution and delivery of this Agreement and may be used in lieu of the original Agreement for all purposes. Signatures transmitted
by facsimile or e-mail shall be deemed to be original signatures for all purposes.


 


(l)
Service Relationship At Will. Participant acknowledges and agrees that the vesting of this Option
pursuant hereto is earned only by his or her continuing service as a service provider at will (and not through the act of being
hired, being granted this Option or acquiring Shares hereunder). Participant further acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement,
the transactions contemplated hereby and the vesting schedule set forth herein do not constitute an express or implied promise
of continued engagement as a service provider for the vesting period, or for any period at all, and shall not interfere with the
right of either the Company or Participant to terminate Participant’s relationship as a service provider at any time, with
or without cause or notice.


 


(m)
Third Party Beneficiary Rights. No provisions hereof are intended, nor shall be interpreted, to provide or
create any third party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any client, customer, affiliate, stockholder, partner
or employee of any party hereto or any other Person, unless specifically provided otherwise herein; provided, however,
that Section II.4 is intended to benefit the underwriters for any registered offering described in Section II.4, and such
underwriters shall have the right, power and authority to enforce the provisions of Section II.4 as though they were parties hereto.


 






    5


     


    

 


(n)
Adjustments. In the event of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares,
other securities or other property), recapitalization, reincorporation, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, reclassification, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities of the
Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, the Administrator will appropriately
adjust the number, class and price of Shares subject to this Option, with such adjustment to be made in accordance with Section
409A of the Code.


 


(o)
No Impact on Other Benefits. The value of this Option is not part of Participant’s normal or
