shall also set forth whether the Restricted Stock Units shall be settled (i) within the time period specified for “short term deferrals” under Section 409A or (ii) otherwise within the requirements of Section 409A, in
which case the Award Agreement shall specify upon which events such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled. 
 10.4.2. Voting and
Dividend Rights. 
 Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 17.12,
holders of Restricted Stock Units shall not have rights as stockholders of the Company, including no voting or dividend or dividend equivalents rights. 

  
 12 













 10.4.3. Creditor’s Rights. 

A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent
an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement. 
 10.5.
Purchase of Restricted Stock. 
 The Grantee shall be required, to the extent required by applicable law, to purchase the Restricted
Stock from the Company at a Purchase Price equal to the greater of (i) the aggregate par value of the shares of Stock represented by such Restricted Stock or (ii) the Purchase Price, if any, specified in the related Award Agreement. If
specified in the Award Agreement, the Purchase Price may be deemed paid by Services already rendered. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 11 or, in the discretion of the Board, in
consideration for past Services rendered. 
 10.6. Delivery of Stock. 

Upon the expiration or termination of any Restricted Period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Board, the
restrictions applicable to shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units settled in Stock shall lapse, and, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, a stock certificate for such shares shall be delivered, free of all such
restrictions, to the Grantee or the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be. 
 11. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK

 11.1. General Rule. 

Payment of the Option Price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock shall be
made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to the Company, except as provided in this Section 11. 
 11.2.
Surrender of Stock. 
 To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the
exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made all or in part through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shares shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price or
Purchase Price for Restricted Stock has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise or surrender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the right to make payment in the form of already
owned shares of Stock may be authorized only at the time of grant. 
 11.3. Cashless Exercise. 

With respect to an Option only (and not with respect to Restricted Stock), to the extent permitted by law and to the extent the Award Agreement
so provides, payment of the Option Price may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form acceptable to the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or
part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 17.3. 

  
 13 













 11.4. Other Forms of Payment. 

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made in any other
form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules, including, but not limited to, the Company’s withholding of shares of Stock otherwise due to the exercising Grantee. 

12. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE AWARDS 

12.1. Performance Conditions. 

The right of a Grantee to exercise or receive a grant or settlement of any Award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such performance
conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Such Awards are referred to as “Performance
Awards.” 
 12.2. Performance Goals Generally. 

The performance goals for Performance Awards shall consist of one or more business or other criteria and a targeted level or levels of
performance with respect to each of such criteria, as specified by the Committee consistent with this Section 12.2. The Committee may determine that such Performance Awards shall be granted, exercised and/or settled upon
achievement of any one performance goal or that two or more of the performance goals must be achieved as a condition to grant, exercise and/or settlement of such Performance Awards. Performance goals may, in the discretion of the Committee, be
established on a Company-wide basis, or with respect to one or more business units, divisions, subsidiaries or business segments, as applicable. Performance goals may be absolute or relative (to the performance of one or more comparable companies or
indices). The Committee may determine the extent to which measurement of performance goals may exclude the impact of charges for restructuring, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, debt redemption or retirement, asset write downs,
litigation or claim judgments or settlements, acquisitions or divestitures, foreign exchange gains and losses, and other unusual non-recurring items, and the cumulative effects of tax or accounting changes
(each as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and as identified in the Company’s financial statements or other SEC filings). Performance goals may differ for Performance Awards granted to any one Grantee or to different Grantees.

 12.3. Business Criteria. 

For purposes of Performance Awards, the Committee may select any business criteria for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and/or specified
subsidiaries or business units of the Company (except with respect to the total stockholder return and earnings per share criteria), including any of the following: (i) cash flow; (ii) earnings per share, as adjusted for any stock split,
stock dividend or other recapitalization; (iii) earnings measures (including EBIT and EBITDA)); (iv) return on equity; (v) total stockholder return; (vi) share price performance, as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend or
other recapitalization; (vii) return on capital; (viii) revenue; (ix) income; (x) profit margin; (xi) return on operating revenue; (xii) brand recognition/acceptance; (xiii) customer metrics (including customer
satisfaction, customer retention, customer profitability, or customer contract terms); (xiv) productivity; (xv) expense targets; (xvi) market share; (xvii) cost control measures; (xviii) balance sheet metrics;
(xix) strategic initiatives; (xx) implementation, completion or attainment of measurable objectives with 

  
 14 













 
respect to recruitment or retention of personnel or employee satisfaction; (xxi) return on assets; (xxii) growth in net sales; (xxiii) the ratio of net sales to net working
capital; (xxiv) improvement in management of working capital items (inventory, accounts receivable or accounts payable); (xxv) sales from newly-introduced products; (xxvi) successful completion of, or achievement of milestones or
objectives related to, financing or capital raising transactions, strategic acquisitions or divestitures, joint ventures, partnerships, collaborations, or other transactions; (xxvii) product quality, safety, productivity, yield or reliability
(on time and complete orders); (xxviii) funds from operations; (xxix) regulatory body approval for commercialization of a product; (xxx) debt levels or reduction or debt ratios; (xxxi) economic value; (xxxii) operating
efficiency; (xxxiii) research and development achievements; or (xxxiv) any combination of the forgoing business criteria; provided, however, that such business criteria shall include any derivations of business criteria
listed above (e.g., income shall include pre-tax income, net income, operating income, etc.). 
 13. OTHER
STOCK-BASED AWARDS 
 13.1. Grant of Other Stock-based Awards. 

Other Stock-based Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other Awards under the Plan. Other Stock-based
Awards may be granted in lieu of other cash or other compensation to which a Service Provider is entitled from the Company or may be used in the settlement of amounts payable in shares of Common Stock under any other compensation plan or arrangement
of the Company. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the sole and complete authority to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, the number of shares of Common Stock to be
granted pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of such Awards. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, any such Award shall be confirmed by an Award Agreement, which shall contain such provisions as the Committee determines to be
necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of this Plan with respect to such Award. 
 13.2. Terms of Other Stock-based Awards.

 Any Common Stock subject to Awards made under this Section 13 may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses. 

14. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW 
 14.1.
General. 
 The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such shares
would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising an Option, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or
regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to an Award upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or
desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Award unless such listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay 

  
 15 













 
caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Award. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any Option or the delivery of any shares of
Stock underlying an Award, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Award, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence
satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding,
and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an
Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be exercisable until the shares
of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or
the availability of such an exemption. 
 14.2. Rule 16b-3. 

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the
Company that Awards and the exercise of Options granted to officers and directors hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the
Plan or action by the Board or Committee 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 Board, and shall not
affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Board may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to
take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement. 
 15. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION 

15.1. Changes in Stock. 

If (i) the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a
different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in
capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date or (ii) there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by the Company, the number and kinds of shares for which grants of Awards may be made under the Plan (including the per-Grantee maximums set forth in Section 4) shall be equitably adjusted by the Company; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A. In addition, in the event of
any such increase or decrease in the number of outstanding shares or other transaction described in clause (ii) above, the number and kind of shares for which Awards are outstanding and the Option Price per share of outstanding Options and SAR
Exercise Price per share of outstanding SARs shall be equitably adjusted; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A. 

  
 16 













 15.2. Effect of Certain Transactions. 

Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement and subject to the provisions of Section 16.3, in the event of a
Corporate Transaction, the Plan and the Awards issued hereunder shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms, except that following a Corporate Transaction either (i) each outstanding Award shall be treated as provided for
in the agreement entered into in connection with the Corporate Transaction or (ii) if not so provided in such agreement, each Grantee shall be entitled to receive in respect of each share of Common Stock subject to any outstanding Awards, upon
exercise or payment or transfer in respect of any Award, the same number and kind of stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration that each holder of a share of Common Stock was entitled to receive in the Corporate Transaction in respect
of a share of Common stock; provided, however, that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, such stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration shall remain subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and
performance criteria which were applicable to the Awards prior to such Corporate Transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the treatment of outstanding Options and SARs pursuant to this Section 16.2 in
connection with a Corporate Transaction in which the consideration paid or distributed to the Company’s stockholders is not entirely shares of common stock of the acquiring or resulting corporation may include the cancellation of outstanding
Options and SARs upon consummation of the Corporate Transaction as long as, at the election of the Committee, (i) the holders of affected Options and SARs have been given a period of at least fifteen days prior to the date of the consummation
of the Corporate Transaction to exercise the Options or SARs (to the extent otherwise exercisable) or (ii) the holders of the affected Options and SARs are paid (in cash or cash equivalents) in respect of each Share covered by the Option or SAR
being canceled an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the per share price paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction (the value of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the
Committee in its sole discretion) over the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt, (1) the cancellation of Options and SARs pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence may be effected
notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan or any Award Agreement and (2) if the amount determined pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is zero or less, the affected Option or SAR may be cancelled without
any payment therefore. The treatment of any Award as provided in this Section 16.2 shall be conclusively presumed to be appropriate for purposes of Section 16.1. 

15.3. Change in Control 

15.3.1. Consequences of a Change in Control. 

For Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors, upon a Change in Control all outstanding Awards that may
be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to outstanding Awards shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and any specified performance goals with respect to
outstanding Awards shall be deemed to be satisfied at target. 
 For Awards granted to any other Service Providers, either of the following
provisions shall apply, depending on whether, and the extent to which, Awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in a Change in Control, provided that the Earnout RSUs shall vest in a Change in Control only to the extent
provided by the Merger Agreement: 

  
 17 














	 	(i)	 To the extent such Awards are not assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the Change in
Control, then upon the Change in Control such outstanding Awards that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding Awards, other than for Performance Awards, shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding Performance Awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the Change in Control based upon the greater
of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of the Company’s fiscal quarter end preceding
the Change in Control and the Award shall become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the Change in Control. 



 

	 	(ii)	 To the extent such Awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the Change in Control,
if, within two years after the date of the Change in Control, the Service Provider has a Separation from Service either (1) by the Company other than for “cause” or (2) by the Service Provider for “good reason” (each as
defined in the applicable Award Agreement), then such outstanding Awards that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding Awards, other than for Performance Awards, shall lapse and become vested
and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding Performance Awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the Separation from Service based
upon the greater of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of the Company’s fiscal
quarter end preceding the Change in Control and the Award shall become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the Separation from Service. 



15.3.2. Change in Control Defined. 

Except as may otherwise be defined in an Award Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the
following events: 
 (a) Any Person becomes the beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of more than 50% of Outstanding Voting Securities; provided, however, that, for purposes of this definition, the following acquisitions shall not
constitute a Change in Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company, (ii) any acquisition by the Company, (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any
Subsidiary, or (iv) any acquisition pursuant to a Corporate Transaction that complies with subsections (c)(i), (c)(ii) and (c)(iii) of this definition; 

(b) Continuing Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; 

(c) Consummation of a Corporate Transaction unless, following such Corporate Transaction, (i) all or substantially all of
the individuals and entities that were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Voting Securities immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the then-outstanding combined voting power
of the then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or, for a non-corporate entity, equivalent governing body) of the entity resulting from such Corporate
Transaction (including, without limitation, an entity that, as a result of such 

  
 18 













 
transaction, owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of the Outstanding Voting Securities immediately prior to such Corporate Transaction, (ii) no Person (excluding any corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction or any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company
or such corporation resulting from such Corporate Transaction) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then-outstanding voting securities of such entity, except to the extent that such ownership
existed prior to the Corporate Transaction, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or, for a non-corporate entity, equivalent governing body) of the entity resulting from
such Corporate Transaction were Continuing Directors at the time of the execution of the initial agreement or of the action of the Board providing for such Corporate Transaction; or 

(d) The stockholders of the Company give approval of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that an Award hereunder is subject to the requirements of Section 409A and payable
upon a Change in Control, the Company will not be deemed to have undergone a Change in Control unless the Company is deemed to have undergone a “change in control event” pursuant to the definition of such term in Section 409A. In
addition, in no event shall the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement constitute a Change in Control. 

15.4. Adjustments. 

Adjustments under this Section 16 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Board,
whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each
case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share. 
 16. NO LIMITATIONS ON COMPANY 

The making of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments,
reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 

17. TERMS APPLICABLE GENERALLY TO AWARDS GRANTED UNDER THE PLAN 

17.1. Disclaimer of Rights. 

No provision in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or
service of the Company or any Affiliate, or to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any
employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, no


  
 19 













 
Award granted under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Grantee, so long as such Grantee continues to be a Service Provider. The obligation of the Company to pay
any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company
to transfer any amounts to a third party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any Grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan. 

17.2. Nonexclusivity of the Plan. 

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating
any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual
or particular individuals), including, without limitation, the granting of stock options as the Board in its discretion determines desirable. 

17.3. Withholding Taxes. 

The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any
federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld (i) with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award, (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an
Option or SAR, or (iii) otherwise due in connection with an Award. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or the Affiliate may
reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the
Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, or the Company may require such obligations (up to maximum statutory rates) to be satisfied, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Affiliate to withhold the number of shares of
Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee as may be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld
shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations (up to maximum statutory rates). The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or the
Affiliate as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 18.3 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock
that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements. 
 17.4. Captions. 

The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any
provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement. 
 17.5. Other Provisions. 

Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board, in its sole
discretion. In the event of any conflict between the terms of an employment agreement and the Plan, the terms of the employment agreement govern. 

  
 20 













 17.6. Number and Gender. 

With respect to words used in this Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine
gender, etc., as the context requires. 
 17.7. Severability. 

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction,
the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction. 

17.8. Governing Law. 
 The
Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law, and applicable Federal law. 

17.9. Section 409A. 

The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the
Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation
unless applicable laws require otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that
would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six (6) month period immediately following the Grantee’s Separation from Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the
six-month anniversary of the Grantee’s Separation from Service (or the Grantee’s death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to
take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on any Grantee under Section 409A and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any Grantee for such tax or penalty. 

17.10. Separation from Service. 

The Board shall determine the effect of a Separation from Service upon Awards, and such effect shall be set forth in the appropriate Award
Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board may provide in the Award Agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, the actions that will be taken upon the occurrence of a Separation from Service,
including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination, depending upon the circumstances surrounding the Separation from Service. 

17.11. Transferability of Awards. 

17.11.1. Transfers in General. 

Except as provided in Section 18.11.2, no Award shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is
granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only the Grantee personally (or the Grantee’s personal representative) may exercise rights under the Plan. 

  
 21 













 17.11.2. Family Transfers. 

If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Award (other than Incentive Stock
Options) to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 18.11.2, a “not for value” transfer is a transfer which is (i) a gift, (ii) a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of
marital property rights; or (iii) a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty percent of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in that entity. Following a transfer under this
Section 18.11.2, any such Award shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred Awards are prohibited except to Family
Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 18.11.2 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 

17.12. Dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights. 

If specified in the Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award (other than Options or SARs) may be entitled to receive dividends or dividend
equivalents with respect to the Common Stock or other securities covered by an Award. The terms and conditions of a dividend equivalent right may be set forth in the Award Agreement. Dividend equivalents credited to a Grantee may be reinvested in
additional shares of Stock or other securities of the Company at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date that such dividend was paid to stockholders, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in no event will dividends or dividend equivalents vest or otherwise be paid out prior to the time that the underlying Award (or portion thereof) has vested and, accordingly, will be subject to
cancellation and forfeiture if such Award does not vest (including both time-based and performance-based Awards). 
 The Plan was adopted
by the Board of Directors on September 2, 2021 and was approved by the stockholders of the Company on September 1, 2021. 

  
 22
