thereby strengthening their concern for the Company and the Affiliates. Accordingly, the Plan provides for the grant of Options,

of additional taxes under such rules, the transaction or event described in subsection (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) with respect to
such Award (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the payment timing of such Award if such
transaction also constitutes a “change in control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5).


 


The Board shall have
full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its sole discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change in Control
has occurred pursuant to the above definition, the date of the occurrence of such Change in Control and any incidental matters
relating thereto; provided that any exercise of authority in conjunction with a determination of whether a Change in Control is

regulation.

or any of its parents or subsidiaries within the meaning of General Instruction A.1(a) to Form S-8 if such individual is granted
an Award that may be settled in Stock. An employee on leave of absence may be an Eligible Person.

this definition of Fair Market Value, with respect to one or more Award types, or for any other purpose for which the Committee
must determine the Fair Market Value under the Plan, the Committee may elect to choose a different measurement date or methodology

Authority of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee except to the extent the Board elects
to administer the Plan, in which case references herein to the “Committee” shall be deemed to include references to
the “Board.” Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, Rule 16b-3 and other applicable laws, the Committee shall
have the authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to:


 


(i)            designate Eligible Persons as Participants;

be vested, settled, exercised, cancelled or forfeited (including conditions based on continued employment or service requirements
or the achievement of one or more performance goals);

The express grant of
any specific power to the Committee, and the taking of any action by the Committee, shall not be construed as limiting any power
or authority of the Committee. Any action of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the
Company, Affiliates, stockholders, Participants, beneficiaries, and permitted transferees under Section 7(a) or other persons
claiming rights from or through a Participant.


 






    6


     


    

 


(b)              
 Exercise of Committee Authority. At any time that a member of the Committee is not a Qualified Member, any action
of the Committee relating to an Award granted or to be granted to an Eligible Person who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange
Act in respect of the Company where such action is not taken by the full Board may be taken either (i) by a subcommittee, designated
by the Committee, composed solely of two or more Qualified Members, or (ii) by the Committee but with each such member who is not
a Qualified Member abstaining or recusing himself or herself from such action; provided, however, that upon such
abstention or recusal, the Committee remains composed solely of two or more Qualified Members. Such action, authorized by such
a subcommittee or by the Committee upon the abstention or recusal of such non-Qualified Member(s), shall be the action of the Committee
for purposes of the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, the full Board may take any action relating to an Award granted or to be
granted to an Eligible Person who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company.


 


(c)              
Delegation of Authority. The Committee may delegate any or all of its powers and duties under the Plan to a subcommittee
of directors or to any officer of the Company, including the power to perform administrative functions and grant Awards; provided,
that such delegation does not (i) violate state or corporate law, or (ii) result in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d)(1)
for Awards granted to Participants subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company. Upon any such delegation,
all references in the Plan to the “Committee,” other than in Section 8, shall be deemed to include any subcommittee
or officer of the Company to whom such powers have been delegated by the Committee. Any such delegation shall not limit the right
of such subcommittee members or such an officer to receive Awards; provided, however, that such subcommittee members
and any such officer may not grant Awards to himself or herself, a member of the Board, or any executive officer of the Company
or an Affiliate, or take any action with respect to any Award previously granted to himself or herself, a member of the Board,
or any executive officer of the Company or an Affiliate. The Committee may also appoint agents who are not executive officers of
the Company or members of the Board to assist in administering the Plan, provided, however, that such individuals
may not be delegated the authority to grant or modify any Awards that will, or may, be settled in Stock.


 


(d)              
Limitation of Liability. The Committee and each member thereof shall be entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon
any report or other information furnished to him or her by any officer or employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the Company’s
legal counsel, independent auditors, consultants or any other agents assisting in the administration of the Plan. Members of the
Committee and any officer or employee of the Company or any Affiliate acting at the direction or on behalf of the Committee shall
not be personally liable for any action or determination taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company with respect to any such action or determination.


 


(e)              
Participants in Non-U.S. Jurisdictions. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to comply with
applicable laws in countries other than the United States in which the Company or any Affiliate operates or has employees, directors
or other service providers from time to time, or to ensure that the Company complies with any applicable requirements of foreign
securities exchanges, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (i) determine which of the
Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan; (ii) determine which Eligible Persons outside the United States are eligible to participate
in the Plan; (iii) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Persons outside the United States to comply
with applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any foreign exchange; (iv) establish sub-plans and modify exercise procedures
and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (any such sub-plans and/or modifications
shall be attached to the Plan as appendices), provided, however, that no such sub-plans and/or modifications shall
increase the share limitations contained in Section 4(a); and (v) take any action, before or after an Award is granted,
that it deems advisable to comply with any applicable governmental regulatory exemptions or approval or listing requirements of
any such foreign securities exchange. For purposes of the Plan, all references to foreign laws, rules, regulations or taxes shall
be references to the laws, rules, regulations and taxes of any applicable jurisdiction other than the United States or a political
subdivision thereof.


 






    7


     


    

 


4.                 
Stock Subject to the Plan.


 


(a)              
Number of Shares Available for Delivery. Subject to adjustment in a manner consistent with Section 8, (i)
4,650,000 shares of Stock are reserved and available for delivery with respect to Awards, and such total shall be available for
the issuance of shares upon the exercise of ISOs, plus (ii) the number of shares of Stock that become available for Awards
under this Plan pursuant to Section 4(d) below.


 


(b)              
Application of Limitation to Grants of Awards. Subject to Section 4(c), no Award may be granted if the
number of shares of Stock that may be delivered in connection with such Award exceeds the number of shares of Stock remaining available
under the Plan minus the number of shares of Stock issuable in settlement of or relating to then-outstanding Awards. The Committee
may adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting (as, for example, in the case of
tandem or Substitute Awards) and make adjustments if the number of shares of Stock actually delivered differs from the number of
shares previously counted in connection with an Award.


 


(c)              
Availability of Shares Not Delivered under Awards. Shares of Stock subject to an Award under the Plan that expires
or is cancelled, forfeited, exchanged, settled in cash or otherwise terminated without the actual delivery of shares will again
be available for Awards. For the avoidance of doubt, Awards of Restricted Stock shall not be considered “delivered shares”
for this purpose until vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the number of shares tendered or withheld in payment of any
exercise or purchase price of an Option or an SAR or taxes relating to an Option or an SAR, including shares that were subject
to an Option or an SAR but were not issued or delivered as a result of the net settlement or net exercise of such Option or SAR
and (ii) shares repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of an Option’s exercise price, will be considered “delivered
shares” and will not, in each case, be again available for Awards. The number of shares of Stock withheld in payment of the
tax withholding obligation related an Award other than an Option or an SAR will be again available for Awards under the Plan. For
the avoidance of doubt, if an Award may be settled only in cash, such Award need not ever be counted against any share limit under
this Section 4.


 


(d)              
Shares Available Under the Prior Plan. In addition, shares of Stock subject to an award granted under the Prior
Plan and outstanding as of the Effective Date (a “Prior Award”) that are forfeited or expire, are converted
to shares of another Person in connection with a spin-off or other similar event, or if such Prior Award is settled for cash (in
whole or in part) (including shares repurchased by the Company under Section 8.4 of the Prior Plan at the same price paid by the
holder of such Prior Award), the shares of Stock subject to such Prior Award shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration,
conversion or cash settlement, become available for future grants of Awards under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, a number
of shares of Stock equal to the difference between (i) the maximum number of shares of Stock that could have been settled pursuant
to performance-based Prior Awards, and (ii) the actual number of shares of Stock delivered upon settlement of performance-based
Prior Awards, shall become available for future grants of Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the following shares of Stock subject to Prior Awards shall not be added to the shares
of Stock authorized for grant under Section 4(a) and shall not be available for future grants of Awards: (i) shares tendered
by a Holder (as such term is defined in the Prior Plan) or withheld by the Company in payment of the exercise price of a stock
option; (ii) shares of Stock tendered by the Holder or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with
respect to a Prior Award; (iii) shares of Stock subject to a stock appreciation right that are not issued in connection with the
stock settlement of the stock appreciation right on exercise thereof; and (iv) shares of Stock purchased on the open market by
the Company with the cash proceeds received from the exercise of stock options. For the avoidance of doubt, no awards will be
granted under the Prior Plan on or following the Effective Date.


 






    8


     


    

 


(e)              
Shares Available Following Certain Transactions. Substitute Awards granted in accordance with applicable stock exchange
requirements and in substitution or exchange for awards previously granted by a company acquired by the Company or any Subsidiary
or with which the Company or any Subsidiary combines shall not reduce the shares authorized for issuance under the Plan or the
limitations on grants to non-employee members of the Board under Section 5(b), nor shall shares subject to such Substitute
Awards be added to the shares available for issuance under the Plan as provided above (whether or not such Substitute Awards are
later cancelled, forfeited or otherwise terminated).


 


(f)               
Stock Offered. The shares of Stock to be delivered under the Plan shall be made available from (i) authorized
but unissued shares of Stock, (ii) Stock held in the treasury of the Company, or (iii) previously issued shares of Stock reacquired
by the Company, including shares purchased on the open market.


 


5.                 
Eligibility; Award Limitations for Non-Employee Members of the Board.


 


(a)              
Awards may be granted under the Plan only to Eligible Persons.


 


(b)              
In each calendar year during any part of which the Plan is in effect, a non-employee member of the Board may not be paid
compensation, whether denominated in cash or Awards, for such individual’s service on the Board in excess of $500,000; provided,
however, that for any calendar year in which a member of the Board (i) first commences service on the Board, (ii) serves on a
special committee of the Board, (iii) serves as lead director, or (iv) serves as non-executive Chairman of the Board, additional
compensation, whether denominated in cash or Awards may be paid. For purposes of this Section 5(b), the value of Awards
shall be determined, if applicable, pursuant to ASC Topic 718 on the date of grant and attributed to the compensation limit for
the year in which the Award is granted. For the avoidance of doubt, the limits set forth in this Section 5(b) shall be without
regard to grants of Awards or other payments, if any, made to a non-employee member of the Board during any period in which such
individual was an employee of the Company or of any of its Affiliates or was otherwise providing services to the Company or to
any of its Affiliates other than in the capacity as a director of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any cash compensation
that is deferred shall be counted toward this limit for the year in which it was first earned, and not when paid or settled, if
later.

6.

Committee may impose on any Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter (subject to Section 10), such
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine, including
subjecting such awards to service- or performance-based vesting conditions. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement,
the Committee may exercise its discretion to reduce or increase the amounts payable under any Award.


 


(ii)             
Without limiting the scope of Section 6(a)(i), with respect to any performance-based conditions, (i) the Committee may use
one or more business criteria or other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance goals
applicable to an Award, (ii) any such performance goals may relate to the performance of the Participant, the Company (on a consolidated
basis), or to specified Subsidiaries, business or geographical units or operating areas of the Company, (iii) the performance period
or periods over which performance goals will be measured shall be established by the Committee, and (iv) any such performance goals
and performance periods may differ among Awards granted to any one Participant or to different Participants. 


 


(iii)           
Subject to Section 8(e) of the Plan, any Award (or portion thereof) granted
under the Plan shall vest no earlier than the first anniversary of the date the Award is granted; provided, however,
that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of the shares of Stock available
pursuant to Section 4 may be granted to any one or more Eligible Persons without respect to and/or administered without regard
for this minimum vesting provision. For the avoidance of doubt, the grant of Stock Awards will count against the 5% limit described
in the immediately preceding sentence. No Award Agreement shall be permitted to reduce or eliminate the requirements of this Section
6(a)(iii). Nothing in this Section 6(a)(iii) shall preclude the Committee from taking action, in its sole discretion, to accelerate
the vesting of any Award for any reason. 


 


(b)              
Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options, which may be designated as either ISOs or Nonstatutory Options,
to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:


 






    10


     


    

 


(i)                
 Exercise Price. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Option shall state the exercise price per share of Stock (the
 “Exercise Price”) established by the Committee; provided, however, that except as provided
in Section 6(j) or in Section 8, the Exercise Price of an Option shall not be less than the greater of (A) the par
value per share of the Stock or (B) 100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock as of the date of grant of the Option
(or in the case of an ISO granted to an individual who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or any of its Subsidiaries, 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock
on the date of grant).


 


(ii)             
Time and Method of Exercise; Other Terms. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the Exercise Price may
be paid or deemed to be paid, the form of such payment, including cash or cash equivalents, Stock (including previously owned shares
or through a cashless exercise, i.e., “net settlement”, a broker-assisted exercise, or other reduction of the amount
of shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the Option), other Awards or awards granted under other plans of the Company or any Affiliate,
other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate, the methods by or forms in which Stock will be
delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, including the delivery of Restricted Stock subject to Section 6(d),
and any other terms and conditions of any Option. In the case of an exercise whereby the Exercise Price is paid with Stock, such
Stock shall be valued based on the Stock’s Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise. No Option may be exercisable for
a period of more than ten years following the date of grant of the Option (or in the case of an ISO granted to an individual who
owns stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or
any of its Subsidiaries, for a period of more than five years following the date of grant of the ISO).


 


(iii)           
ISOs. The terms of any ISO granted under the Plan shall comply in all respects with the provisions of Section 422
of the Code. ISOs may only be granted to Eligible Persons who are employees of the Company or employees of a parent or any Subsidiary
corporation of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8, no term of the Plan relating to ISOs (including any
SAR in tandem therewith) shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan
be exercised, so as to disqualify either the Plan or any ISO under Section 422 of the Code, unless notice has been provided to
the Participant that such change will result in such disqualification. ISOs shall not be granted more than ten years after the
earlier of the adoption of the Plan or the approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of Stock subject to an ISO and the aggregate Fair Market Value of
shares of stock of any parent or Subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) subject to
any other incentive stock options of the Company or a parent or Subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of Sections 424(e) and
(f) of the Code) that are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, or such other
amount as may be prescribed under Section 422 of the Code, such excess shall be treated as Nonstatutory Options in accordance with
the Code. As used in the previous sentence, Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date the ISO is granted. If a Participant
shall make any disposition of shares of Stock issued pursuant to an ISO under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of
the Code (relating to disqualifying dispositions), the Participant shall notify the Company of such disposition within the time
provided to do so in the applicable award agreement.


 






    11


     


    

 


(c)              
 SARs. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:


 


(i)                
Right to Payment. An SAR is a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of
one share of Stock on the date of exercise over (B) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Committee.


 


(ii)             
Grant Price. Each Award Agreement evidencing an SAR shall state the grant price per share of Stock established by
the Committee; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 6(j) or in Section 8, the grant
price per share of Stock subject to an SAR shall not be less than the greater of (A) the par value per share of the Stock or (B)
100% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock as of the date of grant of the SAR.


 


(iii)           
Method of Exercise and Settlement; Other Terms. The Committee shall determine the form of consideration payable upon
settlement, the method by or forms in which Stock (if any) will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, and any
other terms and conditions of any SAR. SARs may be either free-standing or granted in tandem with other Awards. No SAR may be exercisable
for a period of more than ten years following the date of grant of the SAR.


 


(iv)            
Rights Related to Options. An SAR granted in connection with an Option shall entitle a Participant, upon exercise,
to surrender that Option or any portion thereof, to the extent unexercised, and to receive payment of an amount determined by multiplying
(A) the difference obtained by subtracting the Exercise Price with respect to a share of Stock specified in the related Option
from the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise of the SAR, by (B) the number of shares as to which that
SAR has been exercised. The Option shall then cease to be exercisable to the extent surrendered. SARs granted in connection with
an Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Award Agreement governing the Option, which shall provide that the
SAR is exercisable only at such time or times and only to the extent that the related Option is exercisable and shall not be transferable
except to the extent that the related Option is transferrable.


 


(d)              
Restricted Stock. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to Eligible Persons on the following terms
and conditions:


 


(i)                
Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other
restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose. Except as provided in Section 7(a)(iii) and Section 7(a)(iv),
during the restricted period applicable to the Restricted Stock, the Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hedged,
hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the Participant. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement
and this Section 6(d), the holder of a Restricted Stock Award will generally have the same rights as a stockholder,
including the right to vote the Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award and to receive dividends on the Stock subject to the
Restricted Stock Award during the restriction period (subject, in all cases, to the limitations on payment of dividends on unvested
Awards, as described in Section 6(d)(ii) below).


 






    12


     


    

 


(ii)             
 Dividends and Splits. As a condition to the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock, the Committee may allow a Participant
to elect, or may require, that any cash dividends paid on a share of Restricted Stock be automatically reinvested in additional
shares of Restricted Stock, applied to the purchase of additional Awards or deferred without interest to the date of vesting of
the associated Award of Restricted Stock, provided that in all events such cash dividends shall be subject to restrictions and
a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such dividends were paid and shall not be
paid unless and until such Restricted Stock has vested and been earned. Stock distributed in connection with a Stock split or Stock
dividend, and other property (other than cash) distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture
to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Stock or other property has been distributed and shall not
be delivered unless and until such Restricted Stock has vested and been earned.


 


(e)              
Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Persons on the following
terms and conditions:


 


(i)                
Award and Restrictions. Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such restrictions (which may include a risk of
forfeiture) as the Committee may impose.


 


(ii)             
Settlement. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units shall occur upon vesting or upon expiration of the deferral
period specified for such Restricted Stock Units by the Committee (or, if permitted by the Committee, as elected by the Participant).
Restricted Stock Units shall be settled by delivery of (A) a number of shares of Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock
Units for which settlement is due, or (B) cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the specified number of shares of
Stock equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units for which settlement is due, or a combination thereof, as determined by the
Committee at the date of grant or thereafter.


 


(f)               
Stock Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Stock Awards to Eligible Persons as a bonus, as additional compensation,
or in lieu of cash compensation any such Eligible Person is otherwise entitled to receive, in such amounts and subject to such
other terms as the Committee in its discretion determines to be appropriate.


 


(g)              
Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Eligible Persons, entitling any
such Eligible Person to receive cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property equal in value to dividends or other distributions
paid with respect to a specified number of shares of Stock. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded in connection with another Award
(other than an Award of Restricted Stock or Stock Award). Dividend Equivalents shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture
to the same extent as the Award with respect to which such dividends accrue and shall not be paid unless and until such Award has
vested and been earned.


 






    13


     


    

 


(h)              
Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to
Eligible Persons such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise
based on, or related to, Stock, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan, including convertible
or exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Stock, purchase rights for Stock, Awards with value
and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or any other factors designated by the Committee, and Awards valued by
reference to the book value of Stock or the value of securities of, or the performance of, specified Affiliates. The Committee
shall determine the terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards. Stock delivered pursuant to an Other-Stock Based Award
in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 6(h) shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at
such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property, as the Committee shall
determine.


 


(i)                
Cash Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Cash Awards, on a free-standing basis or as an element of, a supplement
to, or in lieu of any other Award under the Plan to Eligible Persons in such amounts and subject to such other terms as the Committee
in its discretion determines to be appropriate, including for purposes of any annual or short-term incentive or other bonus program.


 


(j)                
Substitute Awards; No Repricing. Awards may be granted in substitution or exchange for any other Award granted under
the Plan or under another plan of the Company or an Affiliate or any other right of an Eligible Person to receive payment from
the Company or an Affiliate. Awards may also be granted under the Plan in substitution for awards held by individuals who become
Eligible Persons as a result of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of another entity or the assets of another entity by or
with the Company or an Affiliate. Such Substitute Awards referred to in the immediately preceding sentence that are Options or
SARs may have an exercise price that is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of the substitution if
such substitution complies with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules and other applicable laws and exchange rules. Except
as provided in this Section 6(j) or in Section 8, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, the terms
of outstanding Awards may not be amended to (i) reduce the Exercise Price or grant price of an outstanding Option or SAR, (ii)
grant a new Option, SAR or other Award in substitution for, or upon the cancellation of, any previously granted Option or SAR that
has the effect of reducing the Exercise Price or grant price thereof, (iii) exchange any Option or SAR for Stock, cash or other
consideration when the Exercise Price or grant price per share of Stock under such Option or SAR exceeds the Fair Market Value
of a share of Stock or (iv) take any other action that would be considered a “repricing” of an Option or SAR under
the applicable listing standards of the national securities exchange on which the Stock is listed (if any).


 


7.                 
Certain Provisions Applicable to Awards.


 


(a)              
Limit on Transfer of Awards.


 


(i)                
Except as provided in Sections 7(a)(iii) and (iv), each Option and SAR shall be exercisable only by the Participant
during the Participant’s lifetime, or by the person to whom the Participant’s rights shall pass by will or the laws
of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7(a), an ISO shall not be transferable
other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.


 






    14


     


    

 


(ii)             
Except as provided in Sections 7(a)(i), (iii) and (iv), no Award, other than a Stock Award, and no
right under any such Award, may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant
and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable
against the Company or any Affiliate.


 


(iii)           
To the extent specifically provided by the Committee and permitted pursuant to Form S-8 and the instructions thereto, an
Award may be transferred by a Participant on such terms and conditions as the Committee may from time to time establish; provided,
however, that no Award (other than a Stock Award) may be transferred to a third-party financial institution for value.


 


(iv)            
An Award may be transferred pursuant to a domestic relations order entered or approved by a court of competent jurisdiction
upon delivery to the Company of a written request for such transfer and a certified copy of such order.


 


(b)              
Form and Timing of Payment under Awards; Deferrals. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement,
payments to be made by the Company or any Affiliates upon the exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in such forms as the
Committee shall determine in its discretion, including cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, and may be made in a single
payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis (which may be required by the Committee or permitted at the election
of the Participant on terms and conditions established by the Committee); provided, however, that any such deferred
or installment payments will be set forth in the Award Agreement. Payments may include, without limitation, provisions for the
payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents
or other amounts in respect of installment or deferred payments denominated in Stock.


 


(c)              
Evidencing Stock. The Stock or other securities of the Company delivered pursuant to an Award may be evidenced in
any manner deemed appropriate by the Committee in its sole discretion, including in the form of a certificate issued in the name
of the Participant or by book entry, electronic or otherwise, and shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions
as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the SEC, any stock exchange
upon which such Stock or other securities are then listed, and any applicable federal, state or other laws, and the Committee may
cause a legend or legends to be inscribed on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. Further,
if certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, the Company may retain physical possession
of the certificates and may require that the Participant deliver a stock power to the Company, endorsed in blank, related to the
Restricted Stock.


 


(d)              
Consideration for Grants. Awards may be granted for such consideration, including services, as the Committee shall
determine, but shall not be granted for less than the minimum lawful consideration.


 






    15


     


    

 


(e)              
Additional Agreements. Each Eligible Person to whom an Award is granted under the Plan may be required to agree
in writing, as a condition to the grant of such Award or otherwise, to subject an Award that is exercised or settled following
such Eligible Person’s termination of employment or service to a general release of claims and/or a noncompetition or other
restricted covenant agreement in favor of the Company and the Affiliates, with the terms and conditions of such agreement(s) to
be determined in good faith by the Committee.


 


(f)               
Dividends and Dividend Equivalents Subject to Forfeiture. Any dividend or Dividend Equivalent credited with respect
to any Award (except for dividends paid following the grant of a Stock Award, which is an Award of unrestricted (i.e., fully vested)
shares of Stock) shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Award with respect to which
such Stock or other property has been distributed and shall not be delivered unless and until such Award has vested and been earned.


 


8.                 
Subdivision or Consolidation; Recapitalization; Change in Control; Reorganization.


 


(a)              
Existence of Plans and Awards. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any
way the right or power of the Company, the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization,
reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company,
any issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the
Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act
or proceeding.


 


(b)              
Additional Issuances. Except as expressly provided herein, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any
class, including upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, and
in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to,
the number of shares of Stock subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per share of Stock, if applicable.


 


(c)              
Subdivision or Consolidation of Shares. The terms of an Award and the share limitations under the Plan shall be subject
to adjustment by the Committee from time to time, in accordance with the following provisions:


 


(i)                
If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall subdivide as a whole (by reclassification, by a Stock split, by
the issuance of a distribution on Stock payable in Stock, or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then outstanding into a
greater number of shares of Stock or in the event the Company distributes an extraordinary cash dividend, then, as appropriate
(A) the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery with respect to Awards and applicable limitations with respect
to Awards provided in Section 4 and Section 5 (other than cash limits) shall be increased proportionately, and the
kind of shares or other securities available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or
other kind of shares or securities) that may be acquired under any then-outstanding Award shall be increased proportionately,
and (C) the price (including the Exercise Price or grant price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities)
subject to then-outstanding Awards shall be reduced proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as
to which outstanding Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions; provided, however, that in the case of
an extraordinary cash dividend that is not an Adjustment Event, the adjustment to the number of shares of Stock and the Exercise
Price or grant price, as applicable, with respect to an outstanding Option or SAR may be made in such other manner as the Committee
may determine that is permitted pursuant to applicable tax and other laws, rules and regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Awards that already have a right to receive extraordinary cash dividends as a result of Dividend Equivalents or other dividend
rights will not be adjusted as a result of an extraordinary cash dividend.


 






    16


     


    

 


(ii)             
If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall consolidate as a whole (by reclassification, by reverse Stock split,
or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then outstanding into a lesser number of shares of Stock, then, as appropriate (A)
the maximum number of shares of Stock available for delivery with respect to Awards and applicable limitations with respect to
Awards provided in Section 4 and Section 5 (other than cash limits) shall be decreased proportionately, and the kind
of shares or other securities available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or other
kind of shares or securities) that may be acquired under any then-outstanding Award shall be decreased proportionately, and (C)
the price (including the Exercise Price or grant price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) subject
to then-outstanding Awards shall be increased proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which
outstanding Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions.


 


(d)              
Recapitalization. In the event of any change in the capital structure or business of the Company or other corporate
transaction or event that would be considered an “equity restructuring” within the meaning of ASC Topic 718 and, in
each case, that would result in an additional compensation expense to the Company pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 718,
if adjustments to Awards with respect to such event were discretionary or otherwise not required (each such an event, an “Adjustment
Event”), then the Committee shall equitably adjust (i) the aggregate number or kind of shares that thereafter may
be delivered under the Plan, (ii) the number or kind of shares or other property (including cash) subject to an Award, (iii) the
terms and conditions of Awards, including the purchase price or Exercise Price of Awards and performance goals, as applicable,
and (iv) the applicable limitations with respect to Awards provided in Section 4 and Section 5 (other than cash limits)
to equitably reflect such Adjustment Event (“Equitable Adjustments”). In the event of any change in the
capital structure or business of the Company or other corporate transaction or event that would not be considered an Adjustment
Event, and is not otherwise addressed in this Section 8, the Committee shall have complete discretion to make Equitable
Adjustments (if any) in such manner as it deems appropriate with respect to such other event.


 


(e)              
Change in Control and Other Events.


 


(i)                
Treatment of Awards Assumed or Substituted by a Successor Entity.


 


(A)            
Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, in which any successor entity assumes
outstanding Awards or substitutes similar awards under the successor entity’s equity compensation plan for outstanding Awards
on the same terms and conditions as the original Awards, such Awards that are assumed or substituted shall not vest solely with
respect to the occurrence of the Change in Control.


 






    17


     


    

 


(B)             
 Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, if, in connection with or within twelve (12) months following a Change
in Control, a Participant’s service, consulting relationship, or employment with the Company, an Affiliate, and the Successor
Entity and its affiliates is terminated without cause (as defined in the Award Agreement evidencing such Award or substitute award),
the vesting and exercisability of all Awards, including substitute awards, then held by such Participant will be accelerated in
full and be settled, as applicable, no later than sixty (60) days following the conclusion
of the service or employment relationship (unless the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules would prohibit such acceleration
of settlement, in which case such Awards shall vest but will be settled at date(s) of settlement specified in the applicable Award
Agreement) and the expiration date of any Options shall be the day three months following the date the Participant ceases to be
an employee or service provider to the Company, an Affiliate of the Company and the Successor Entity and its affiliates. For
Awards that vest based on performance, the number of performance Awards that shall vest and be settled in accordance with this Section
8(e)(i)(B), notwithstanding the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, shall be calculated assuming the attainment of the
target level of performance as set forth in a performance Award.


 


(ii)             
Treatment of Awards not Assumed or Substituted. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, if, upon a Change
in Control, the successor entity does not assume outstanding Awards or substitute similar awards under the successor entity’s
equity compensation plan for outstanding Awards on the same terms and conditions as the original Awards, then the vesting of all
outstanding Awards will be accelerated in full with effect immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control and
shall be settled, as applicable, no later than sixty (60) days following the Change in Control (unless the Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation Rules would prohibit such acceleration of settlement, in which case such Awards will be settled at the originally
specified date(s) of settlement). The Participant shall be permitted to conditionally redeem or exercise any or all Options,
as applicable, effective immediately prior to the completion of any such transaction for the sole purpose of participating in such
transaction. For Awards that vest based on performance, for the purpose of determining the achievement performance criteria, as
set forth in the particular Award Agreement,  and calculating the number of performance Awards that shall vest in accordance
with this Section 8(e)(ii), notwithstanding the terms of the Award Agreement, and unless otherwise provided by the
Committee, such performance Awards shall be settled at the greater of (A) the target level of performance as set forth in the performance
Award, and (B) the actual performance achieved, measured and calculated as of the date of the Change in Control pursuant to shortened
performance period ending on the occurrence of the Change in Control.


 


If an Adjustment Event
occurs, this Section 8(e) shall only apply to the extent it is not in conflict with Section 8(d).


 


9.                 
General Provisions.


 


(a)              
Tax Withholding. The Company and any Affiliate are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, or any payment
relating to an Award, including from a distribution of Stock, taxes due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction
involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company, the Affiliates and
Participants to satisfy the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award in such amounts as may
be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the form of payment acceptable for such
tax withholding obligations, including the delivery of cash or cash equivalents, Stock (including through delivery of previously
owned shares, net settlement, a broker-assisted sale, or other cashless withholding or reduction of the amount of shares otherwise
issuable or delivered pursuant to the Award), other property, or any other legal consideration the Committee deems appropriate.
Any determination made by the Committee to allow a Participant who is subject to Rule 16b-3 to pay taxes with shares of Stock
through net settlement or previously owned shares shall be approved by either a committee made up of solely two or more Qualified
Members or the full Board. If such tax withholding amounts are satisfied through net settlement or previously owned shares, the
maximum number of shares of Stock that may be so withheld or surrendered shall be the number of shares of Stock that have an aggregate
Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or surrender equal to the aggregate amount of such tax liabilities determined based
on the greatest withholding rates for federal, state, foreign and/or local tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that may be
utilized without creating adverse accounting treatment for the Company with respect to such Award, as determined by the Committee.


 






    18


     


    

 


(b)              
Limitation on Rights Conferred under Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as
(i) giving any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Person or Participant or in the employ or service
of the Company or any Affiliate, (ii) interfering in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate any Eligible
Person’s or Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Person or Participant
any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan or to be treated uniformly with other Participants and/or employees and/or other
service providers, or (iv) conferring on a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until
the Participant is duly issued or transferred shares of Stock in accordance with the terms of an Award.


 


(c)              
Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. All questions arising with respect to the provisions of the Plan and Awards
shall be determined by application of the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions
thereof, except to the extent Delaware law is preempted by federal law. The obligation of the Company to sell and deliver Stock
hereunder is subject to applicable federal and state laws and to the approval of any governmental authority required in connection
with the authorization, issuance, sale, or delivery of such Stock. With respect to any claim or dispute related to or arising under
the Plan, the Company and each Participant who accepts an Award hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction, forum and venue of
the state and federal courts located in Houston, Texas.


 


(d)              
Severability and Reformation. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any
law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable law or,
if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of
the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award and the remainder of the Plan
and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. If any of the terms or provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement
conflict with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (as those terms or provisions are applied to Eligible Persons who are subject to
Section 16 of the Exchange Act) or Section 422 of the Code (with respect to ISOs), then those conflicting terms or provisions
shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (unless the Board or the Committee,
as appropriate, has expressly determined that the Plan or such Award should not comply with Rule 16b-3) or Section 422 of the
Code, in each case, only to the extent Rule 16b-3 and Section 422 of the Code are applicable. With respect to ISOs, if the Plan
does not contain any provision required to be included herein under Section 422 of the Code, that provision shall be deemed to
be incorporated herein with the same force and effect as if that provision had been set out at length herein; provided,
further, that, to the extent any Option that is intended to qualify as an ISO cannot so qualify, that Option (to that extent)
shall be deemed a Nonstatutory Option for all purposes of the Plan.

(e)              
Unfunded Status of Awards; No Trust or Fund Created. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded”
plan for certain incentive awards. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund
of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and a Participant or any other person. To the extent
that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be
no greater than the right of any general unsecured creditor of the Company or such Affiliate.


 


(f)               
Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor its submission to the stockholders
of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or a committee thereof to
adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the
Company or any Affiliate from taking any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or
in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No
employee, beneficiary or other person shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action.


 


(g)              
Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award,
and the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion whether cash, other securities, or other property shall be paid or transferred
in lieu of any fractional shares of Stock or whether such fractional shares of Stock or any rights thereto shall be cancelled,
terminated, or otherwise eliminated with or without consideration.


 


(h)              
Interpretation. Headings are given to the 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. Words in the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, and, where appropriate, the plural
shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions
of an Award Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. The use herein of the word “including”
following any general statement, term or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific
items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language
(such as “without limitation”, “but not limited to”, or words of similar import) is used with reference
thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible
scope of such general statement, term or matter. References herein to any agreement, instrument or other document means such agreement,
instrument or other document as amended, supplemented and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions
thereof and not prohibited by the Plan.


 






    20


     


    

 


(i)                
Facility of Payment. Any amounts payable hereunder to any individual under legal disability or who, in the judgment
of the Committee, is unable to manage properly his financial affairs, may be paid to the legal representative of such individual,
or may be applied for the benefit of such individual in any manner that the Committee may select, and the Company shall be relieved
of any further liability for payment of such amounts.


 


(j)                
Conditions to Delivery of Stock. Nothing herein or in any Award Agreement shall require the Company to issue any
shares with respect to any Award if that issuance would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the
Securities Act, any other applicable statute or regulation, or the rules of any applicable securities exchange or securities association,
as then in effect. In addition, each Participant who receives an Award under the Plan shall not sell or otherwise dispose of Stock
that is acquired upon grant, exercise or vesting of an Award in any manner that would constitute a violation of any applicable
federal or state securities laws, the Plan or the rules, regulations or other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange upon
which the Stock is then listed. At the time of any exercise of an Option or SAR, or at the time of any grant of any other Award,
the Company may, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such Option or SAR or settlement of any other Award, require from
the Participant (or in the event of his or her death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) such
written representations, if any, concerning the holder’s intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the shares
of Stock being acquired pursuant to the Award and such written covenants and agreements, if any, as to the manner of disposal of
such shares as, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, may be necessary to ensure that any disposition by that holder (or in
the event of the holder’s death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) will not involve a violation
of the Securities Act, any other applicable state or federal statute or regulation, or any rule of any applicable securities exchange
or securities association, as then in effect. Stock or other securities shall not be delivered pursuant to any Award until payment
in full of any amount required to be paid pursuant to the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement (including any Exercise Price,
grant price, or tax withholding) is received by the Company.


 


(k)              
Section 409A of the Code. It is the general intention, but not the obligation, of the Committee to design Awards
to comply with or to be exempt from the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, and Awards will be operated and construed accordingly.
Neither this Section 9(k) nor any other provision of the Plan is or contains a representation to any Participant regarding
the tax consequences of the grant, vesting, exercise, settlement, or sale of any Award (or the Stock underlying such Award) granted
hereunder, and should not be interpreted as such. In no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes,
penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by the Participant on account of non-compliance with the Nonqualified
Deferred Compensation Rules. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, in the event that
a “specified employee” (as defined under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules) becomes entitled to a payment
under an Award that would be subject to additional taxes and interest under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules if the
Participant’s receipt of such payment or benefits is not delayed until the earlier of (i) the date of the Participant’s
death, or (ii) the date that is six months after the Participant’s “separation from service,” as defined under
the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules (such date, the “Section 409A Payment Date”), then such
payment or benefit shall not be provided to the Participant until the Section 409A Payment Date. Any amounts subject to the preceding
sentence that would otherwise be payable prior to the Section 409A Payment Date will be aggregated and paid in a lump sum without
interest on the Section 409A Payment Date. The applicable provisions of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules are hereby
incorporated by reference and shall control over any Plan or Award Agreement provision in conflict therewith.


 






    21


     


    

 


(l)                
Clawback. The Plan and all Awards granted hereunder are subject to any written clawback policies that the Company,
with the approval of the Board or an authorized committee thereof, may adopt either prior to or following the Effective Date, including
any policy adopted to conform to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and rules promulgated thereunder
by the SEC and that the Company determines should apply to Awards. Any such policy may subject a Participant’s Awards and
amounts paid or realized with respect to Awards to reduction, cancelation, forfeiture or recoupment if certain specified events
or wrongful conduct occur, including an accounting restatement due to the Company’s material noncompliance with financial
reporting regulations or other events or wrongful conduct specified in any such clawback policy.


 


(m)            
Status under ERISA. The Plan shall not constitute an “employee benefit plan” for purposes of Section
3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.


 


(n)              
Plan Effective Date and Term. The Plan was adopted by the Board to be effective on the Effective Date. No Awards
may be granted under the Plan on and after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, which is October 22, 2030. However, any
Award granted prior to such termination (or any earlier termination pursuant to Section 10), and the authority of the Board
or Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue, or terminate any such Award or to waive any conditions or rights under
such Award in accordance with the terms of the Plan, shall extend beyond such termination until the final disposition of such Award.


 


10.             
Amendments to the Plan and Awards. The Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award or
Award Agreement, the Plan or the Committee’s authority to grant Awards without the consent of stockholders or Participants,
except that any amendment or alteration to the Plan, including any increase in any share limitation, shall be subject to the approval
of the Company’s stockholders not later than the annual meeting next following such Committee action if such stockholder
approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system
on which the Stock may then be listed or quoted, and the Committee may otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit other
changes to the Plan to stockholders for approval; provided, that, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such
Committee action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any previously granted and outstanding
Award. For purposes of clarity, any adjustments made to Awards pursuant to Section 8 will be deemed not to materially and
adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any previously granted and outstanding Award and therefore may be made without
the consent of affected Participants.
