this Agreement (the “Optionee”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase the number of Shares, as set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Exercise Price”),
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of
the Plan shall prevail. If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. However, if this Option is intended to
be an Incentive Stock Option, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it shall be treated as a Nonstatutory Stock Option (“NSO”). 
 2. Exercise of Option. 







 2.1. Right to Exercise. 
 2.1.1. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and the applicable provisions of
the Plan and this Option Agreement. In the event of Optionee’s death, Disability or other termination of Optionee’s employment or consulting relationship, the exercisability of the Option is governed by the applicable provisions of the
Plan and this Option Agreement. 
 2.1.2. Should (i) Optionee’s Continuous Status as an Employee be terminated for misconduct
(which includes, but is not limited to, any act of dishonesty, moral turpitude, fraud or embezzlement); (ii) Optionee make any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company or any Subsidiary; or
(iii) Optionee otherwise act in such a manner not in the best interests of the Company (as reasonably determined by the Company’s Board of Directors), then, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary,
in any such event this Option shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding. 
 2.2. Method of
Exercise.  
 2.2.1. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice, in the form attached as
Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and
agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be signed by the Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by certified mail to the Secretary of the Company. The Exercise Notice shall
be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised Shares. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate Exercise Price.

 2.2.2. No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of this Option unless such issuance and exercise complies with all relevant
provisions of law and the requirements of any stock exchange or quotation service upon which the Shares are then listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Exercised Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the
date the Option is exercised with respect to such Exercised Shares. 
 3. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee: 
 3.1. cash; 
 3.2. check; or 
 3.3. delivery of a properly
executed exercise notice together with such other documentation as the Administrator and the broker, if applicable, shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company of the sale or loan proceeds required to pay the
exercise price. 
 4. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or
by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised 

  

 -2- 








 
during the lifetime of Optionee only by the Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators,
heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee. 
 5. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out
in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement. 
 6.
Registration under the Securities Act of 1933. 
 6.1. Registration and Legends. The
Optionee understands that (i) the Company has not registered the Option or the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or the applicable securities laws of any state in reliance on exemptions from registration
and (ii) such exemptions depend upon the Optionee’s investment intent at the time the Optionee acquires the Option or the Shares. The Optionee therefore represents and warrants that Optionee is acquiring the Option, and will acquire the
Shares, for the Optionee’s own account for investment and not with a view to distribution, assignment, resale or other transfer of the Option or the Shares. Because the Option and the Shares are not registered, the Optionee is aware that the
Optionee must hold them indefinitely unless they are registered under the Act and any applicable securities laws or the Optionee must obtain exemptions from such registration. Upon exercise, in part or in whole, of this Option, the Shares shall bear
the following legend: 
 The shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, or any applicable state securities laws, and they may not be offered for sale, sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated without an effective registration statement under the Act and under any applicable state securities laws, or an
opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that an exemption from such registration is available. 
 6.2. No-Action
Letter. The Company agrees that it will be satisfied that no post-effective amendment or new registration is required for the public sale of the Shares if it shall be presented with a letter from the Staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), stating in effect that, based upon stated facts which the Company shall have no reason to believe are not true in any material respect, the Staff will not recommend any action to the
Commission if such Shares are offered and sold without delivery of a prospectus, and that, therefore, no Registration Statement under which such Shares are to be registered is required to be filed. 
 7. Entire Agreement; Governing Law. The Plan is incorporated herein by reference. The Plan and this Option Agreement constitute the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified adversely to the
Optionee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the Company and Optionee. This Option Agreement is governed by Nevada law except for that body of law pertaining to conflict of laws.

 8. No Guarantee of Employment. Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the vesting of shares
pursuant to the vesting schedule hereof is earned only by continuing service as an employee at the will of the Company (and not through the act of being hired, being granted an option or purchasing shares hereunder. Optionee further acknowledges and
agrees that this agreement, the transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein do not constitute an express or implied promise of continued engagement as an employee for the vesting period, for any period, or at all,
and shall not interfere with optionee’s right or the Company’s right to terminate optionee’s employment at any time, with or without cause.
