ADMINISTRATION 
 5.1 Administration by Committee. Subject to the further provisions of this Section 5, this Plan
shall be administered by a Committee consisting solely of not less than two (2) Non Employee Directors. All references to the Committee hereinafter shall mean the Board if no such Committee has been appointed. 

5.2 Powers of Committee. The Committee shall have the power to (i) approve the selection of Participants, (ii) determine
the type of Awards to be made to Participants, (iii) determine the number of shares of Stock subject to Awards, (iv) determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder (including, but not limited to, any restriction and
forfeiture conditions on such Award) and (v) have the authority to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend, and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to determine the terms and provisions of any agreements entered into
hereunder, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the
extent it shall deem desirable to carry it into effect. 
 5.3 Committee Action Binding. Any action of the Committee
shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company and its Subsidiaries and shareholders, Participants and persons claiming rights from or through a Participant. 






 5.4 Delegation. The Committee may delegate to officers or employees of the Company or
any Subsidiary, and to service providers, the authority, subject to such terms as the Committee shall determine, to perform administrative functions with respect to the Plan and Award agreements. 

5.5 Indemnification. Members of the Committee and any officer or employee of the Company or any Subsidiary acting at the direction
of, 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 extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified by the Company with respect to
any such action or determination. 
 Section 6. ELIGIBILITY 

Individuals eligible to receive Awards under the Plan shall be the officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its
Subsidiaries selected by the Committee; provided, that, only employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries may be granted Incentive Stock Options. 

Section 7. AWARDS 

Awards under the Plan may consist of Options, restricted Stock, restricted Stock Units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares,
performance share units and cash bonuses. Awards shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and shall be evidenced by an agreement containing such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as
the Committee shall deem desirable. 
 Section 8. OPTIONS 

8.1 Grant of Options. The Committee acting in its absolute discretion may grant Options to eligible individuals under this Plan
from time to time to purchase shares of Stock. Each grant of an Option shall be evidenced by an Award agreement, and each Award agreement shall state whether or not the Option will be treated as an Incentive Stock Option or Nonqualified Stock Option
and shall incorporate such terms and conditions as the Committee acting in its absolute discretion deems appropriate and consistent with the terms of this Plan. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the Stock for which Incentive Stock Options granted
to any one employee under this Plan or any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries may by their terms first become exercisable during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000, determining Fair Market Value
as of the date each respective Option is granted. In the event such threshold is exceeded in any calendar year, such excess Options shall be automatically deemed to be Nonqualified Stock Options. To the extent that any Option granted under this Plan
which is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option fails for any reason to qualify as such at any time, such Option shall be a Nonqualified Stock Option. 

8.2 Option Price. The Option Price for each share of Stock subject to an Option shall be determined by the Committee and shall not
be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date the Option is granted; provided, however, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to an employee owning stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined
voting power of all classes of shares of the Company and its subsidiaries (a “10% shareholder”) the price per share specified in the Award agreement shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the date of
grant. 
 8.3 Option Period. The term of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Option shall be exercisable
after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; provided, that, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to 10% Shareholders, the term of such Option shall not exceed five (5) years from the
date of grant. 
 8.4 Exercisability. Each Option shall vest and become exercisable at a rate determined by the Committee
on the date of grant. 
 8.5 Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving written notice
of exercise to the Company in a form approved by the Company specifying the number shares of Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by the payment in full of the Option Price. The exercise price of the Option may be paid by
(i) cash or certified or bank check, (ii) surrender of Stock held by the Optionee for at least six (6) months prior to exercise (or such longer or shorter period as may be required to avoid a charge to earnings for financial
accounting purposes) or the attestation of ownership of such shares, in either case, if so permitted by the Company, (iii) if established by the Company, through a “same day sale” commitment from the optionee and a broker-dealer
selected by the Company that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (an “NASD Dealer”) whereby the optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell a portion of the shares so purchased sufficient to pay
for the total exercise price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the total exercise price directly to the Company, (iv) through additional methods prescribed by the Committee, or (v) by
any combination of the foregoing, and, in all instances, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Options may not be exercised for fractional shares of Stock. A Participant’s subsequent transfer or disposition of any Stock acquired upon
exercise of an Option shall be subject to any Federal and state laws then applicable, specifically securities law, and the terms and conditions of this Plan. 






 8.6 Prohibition on Repricing. No Option granted hereunder shall be amended to reduce
the Option Price under such Option, or surrendered in exchange for a replacement Option having a lower purchase price per share; provided, that, this Section 8.6 shall not restrict or prohibit any adjustment or other action taken
pursuant to Section 12 below. 
 Section 9. RESTRICTED STOCK 

The Committee may from time to time award restricted Stock under the Plan to eligible Participants. Shares of restricted Stock may not be
sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or pledged or hypothecated as collateral for a loan or as security for the performance of any obligation or for any other purpose, for such period (the “Restricted Period”) as the
Committee shall determine. The Committee may define the Restricted Period in terms of the passage of time or in any other manner it deems appropriate. The Committee may alter or waive at any time any term or condition of restricted Stock that is not
mandatory under the Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous Service with the Company for any reason prior to the end of the Restricted Period, the restricted Stock shall be forfeited
and the Participant shall have no right with respect to the Award. Except as restricted under the terms of the Plan and any Award agreement, any Participant awarded restricted Stock shall have all the rights of a shareholder including, without
limitation, the right to vote restricted Stock. If a share certificate is issued in respect of restricted Stock, the certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant, but shall be held by the Company for the account of the Participant
until the end of the Restricted Period. The Committee may also award restricted Stock in the form of restricted Stock units having a value equal to an identical number of shares of Stock. Payment of restricted Stock units shall be made in Stock or
in cash or in a combination thereof (based upon the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the day the Restricted Period expires), all as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 

Section 10. PERFORMANCE SHARES AND PERFORMANCE CASH BONUSES 

10.1 Performance Shares. Performance shares may be granted in the form of actual shares of Stock or Stock units having a value
equal to an identical number of shares of Stock. In the event that a share certificate is issued in respect of performance shares, such certificate shall be registered in the name of the Participant, but shall be held by the Company until the time
the performance shares are earned. In addition, the Committee may make cash bonuses to Participants based on the Performance Objectives described herein (performance shares and performance cash bonuses to be collectively referred to as
“Performance Awards”). The Performance Objectives and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall determine in its sole discretion whether Performance Awards granted in the form of Stock
units shall be paid in cash, Stock, or a combination of cash and Stock. 
 10.2 Performance Objectives. The Committee
shall establish the Performance Objective for each Performance Award, consisting of one or more business criteria permitted as Performance Goals hereunder, one or more levels of performance with respect to each such criteria, and the amount or
amounts payable or other rights that the Participant will be entitled to upon achievement of such levels of performance. The Performance Objective shall be established by the Committee prior to, or reasonably promptly following the inception of, a
Performance Period but, to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, by no later than the earlier of the date that is ninety (90) days after the commencement of the Performance Period or the day prior to the date on which
twenty-five percent of the Performance Period has elapsed. More than one Performance Goal may be incorporated in a Performance Objective, in which case achievement with respect to each Performance Goal may be assessed individually or in combination
with each other. The Committee may, in connection with the establishment of Performance Objectives for a Performance Period, establish a matrix setting forth the relationship between performance of two or more Performance Goals and the amount of the
Performance Award payable for that Performance Period. The level or levels of performance specified with respect to a Performance Goal may be established in absolute terms, as objectives relative to performance in prior periods, as an objective
compared to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies, or otherwise as the Committee may determine. Performance Objectives shall be objective and shall otherwise meet the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code. Performance Objectives may differ for Performance Awards granted to any one Participant or to different Participants. A Performance Award to a Participant who is a Covered Employee shall (unless the Committee
determines otherwise) provide that in the event of the Participant’s termination of Continuous Service prior to the end of the Performance Period for any reason, such Performance Award will be payable only (i) if the applicable Performance
Objectives are achieved and (ii) to the extent, if any, as the Committee shall determine. 
 10.3 Certification.
Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing, in accordance with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, whether the Performance Objectives and other material terms of the Performance Award
have been achieved or met. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, Performance Awards shall not be settled until the Committee has made the certification specified under this Section 10.3. 






 10.4 Adjustment. The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce or eliminate the amount
of payment with respect to the Performance Award to a Covered Employee, notwithstanding the achievement of specified Performance Objectives; provided, that, no such adjustment shall be made which would adversely impact a Participant
following a Change of Control. 
 10.5 Maximum Amount Payable. Subject to Section 12, the maximum number of
performance shares subject to any Performance Award to a Covered Employee is 17,500,000 for each 12 months during the Performance Period (or, to the extent the performance share units are paid in cash, the maximum dollar amount of any such Award is
the equivalent cash value, based on the Fair Market Value of the Stock, of such number of shares of Stock on the last day of the Performance Period). If the Performance Award is a performance cash bonus, a Participant shall not be granted
performance cash bonuses for all of the Performance Periods commencing in a calendar year that permit the Participant, in the aggregate, to earn a cash payment in excess of $3,000,000 per calendar year. 

Section 11. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 

11.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may, in its discretion, either alone or in connection with the grant of
another Award, grant stock appreciation rights in accordance with the Plan, the terms and conditions of which shall be set forth in an Award agreement. If granted in connection with an Option, a stock appreciation right shall cover the same number
of shares of Stock covered by the Option (or such lesser number of shares as the Committee may determine) and shall, except as provided in this Section 11, be subject to the same terms and conditions as the related Option. 

11.2 Time of Grant. A stock appreciation right may be granted (i) at any time if unrelated to an Option, or (ii) if
related to an Option, either at the time of grant, or in the case of Nonqualified Stock Options, at any time thereafter during the term of such Option. 

11.3 Stock Appreciation Right Related to an Option. 

(a) A stock appreciation right granted in connection with an Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and only to the extent that
the related Options are exercisable, and will not be transferable except to the extent the related Option may be transferable. A stock appreciation right granted in connection with an Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable only if the Fair
Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise exceeds the Option Price specified in the related Incentive Stock Option Award agreement. 

(b) Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right related to an Option, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount
determined by multiplying (A) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date preceding the date of exercise of such stock appreciation right over the per share Option Price under the related Option, by (B) the number
of shares of Stock as to which such stock appreciation right is being exercised. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee
may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any stock appreciation right by including such a limit in the agreement evidencing the stock appreciation right at the time it is granted. 

(c) Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right granted in connection with an Option, the Option shall be canceled to the extent of
the number of shares as to which the stock appreciation right is exercised, and upon the exercise of an Option granted in connection with a stock appreciation right, the stock appreciation right shall be canceled to the extent of the number of
shares of Stock as to which the Option is exercised or surrendered. 
 11.4 Stock Appreciation Right Unrelated to an
Option. The Committee may grant to a Participant stock appreciation rights unrelated to Options. Stock appreciation rights unrelated to Options shall contain such terms and conditions as to exercisability, vesting and duration as the Committee
shall determine, but in no event shall they have a term of greater than ten (10) years. Upon exercise of a stock appreciation right unrelated to an Option, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying
(i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share on the date preceding the date of exercise of such stock appreciation right over the per share exercise price of the stock appreciation right, by (ii) the number of shares of Stock as to
which the stock appreciation right is being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable with respect to any stock appreciation right by including such a limit in the Award agreement evidencing
the stock appreciation right at the time it is granted. 
 11.5 Method of Exercise. Stock appreciation rights shall be
exercised by a Participant only by a written notice delivered in person or by mail to the Company at the Company’s principal executive office, specifying the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the stock appreciation right is being
exercised. If requested by the Committee, the Participant shall deliver the Award agreement evidencing the stock appreciation right being exercised and the Award agreement evidencing any related Option to the Company who shall endorse thereon a
notation of such exercise and return such Award agreement to the Participant. 






 11.6 Form of Payment. Payment of the amount determined under this Section 11 may
be made in the discretion of the Committee solely in whole shares of Stock in a number determined at their Fair Market Value on the date preceding the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right, or solely in cash, or in a combination of cash
and shares. If the Committee decides to make full payment in shares of Stock and the amount payable results in a fractional share, payment for the fractional share will be made in cash. 

Section 12. ADJUSTMENT 

12.1 Corporate Transaction or Event. In the event of any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Stock, other
securities, or other property), recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or exchange of Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate
transaction or event (an “Event”), and in the Committee’s opinion, such Event affects the Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to an Award, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, including, without limitation, adjust any or all of the following: (i) the number
and kind of shares of Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted or awarded; (ii) the number and kind of shares of Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; and
(iii) the grant or exercise price with respect to any Award. The Committee determination under this Section 12.1 shall be final, binding and conclusive. Any such adjustment made to an Incentive Stock Option shall be made in accordance with
Section 424(a) of the Code unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 
 12.2 Termination;
Cash-Out. Upon the occurrence of an Event in which outstanding Awards are not to be assumed or otherwise continued following such an Event, the Committee may, in its discretion, terminate any outstanding Award without a Participant’s
consent and (i) provide for either the purchase of any such Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights had such Award been
currently exercisable or payable or fully vested or the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion and/or (ii) provide that such Award shall be exercisable (whether or not vested) as
to all shares covered thereby for at least ten (10) days prior to such Event. 
 12.3 No Restrictions on
Adjustments. The existence of the Plan, the Award agreement and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the shareholders 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 stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures,
preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or
any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 

Section 13. AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time, provided, that, (a) no amendment
shall be made without shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule and (b) except as provided in Section 12, no amendment shall be made that would adversely affect
the rights of a Participant under an Award theretofore granted, without such Participant’s written consent. 
 Section 14. SPECIAL
PROVISIONS 
 14.1 Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided in an Award agreement, upon a Change of Control in
which outstanding Awards are not terminated in accordance with Section 12 of the Plan, all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, granted under this Plan prior to such Change of Control shall immediately become vested and exercisable to the
full extent of the original grant and all restrictions or performance conditions, if any, on any other Awards shall automatically lapse. The Committee may, in its discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any agreement
documenting such Awards as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company. 






 14.2 Forfeiture. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary and unless
otherwise specifically provided in an Award agreement, in the event of a serious breach of conduct by a Participant or former Participant (including, without limitation, any conduct prejudicial to or in conflict with the Company or any Subsidiary)
the Committee may (i) cancel any outstanding Award granted to such Participant or former Participant, in whole or in part, whether or not vested, and/or (ii) if such conduct or activity occurs within 1 year following the exercise or
payment of an Award, require such Participant or former Participant to repay to the Company any gain realized or payment received upon the exercise or payment of such Award (with such gain or payment valued as of the date of exercise or payment).
Such cancellation or repayment obligation shall be effective as of the date specified by the Committee. Any repayment obligation shall be satisfied in cash or, if permitted in the sole discretion of the Committee, it may be satisfied in shares of
Stock (based upon the Fair Market Value of the share of Stock on the date of payment), and the Committee may provide for an offset to any future payments owed by the Company or any Subsidiary to the Participant or former Participant if necessary to
satisfy the repayment obligation. The determination of whether a Participant or former Participant has engaged in a serious breach of conduct or any activity in competition with any of the businesses of the Company or any Subsidiary shall be
determined by the Committee in good faith and in its sole discretion. 
 Section 15. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

15.1 Representations. The Committee may require each Participant purchasing or acquiring shares pursuant to an Award under the Plan
to represent to and agree with the Company in writing that such Participant is acquiring the shares for investment and without a view to distribution thereof. 

15.2 Restrictions. All certificates for Stock delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award shall be subject to such
stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the SEC, any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any applicable Federal or state securities
law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. If the Committee determines that the issuance of Stock hereunder is not in compliance with, or subject to an
exemption from, any applicable Federal or state securities laws, such shares shall not be issued until such time as the Committee determines that the issuance is permissible. 

15.3 Section 16. It is the intent of the Company that the Plan satisfy, and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies, the
applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3 as promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act so that Participants will be entitled to the benefit of Rule 16b-3, or any other rule promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and will not
be subject to short-swing liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, if the operation of any provision of the Plan would conflict with the intent expressed in this Section 15.3, such provision to the extent possible shall
be interpreted and/or deemed amended so as to avoid such conflict. 
 15.4 Section 162(m). To the extent the
Committee issues any Award which is intended to be exempt from the application of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may, without stockholder or grantee approval, amend the Plan or the relevant Award agreement retroactively or
prospectively to the extent it determines necessary in order to comply with any subsequent clarification of Section 162(m) of the Code required to preserve the Company’s Federal income tax deduction for compensation paid pursuant to any
such Award. 
 15.5 No Rights as Shareholder. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the applicable grant or
Award agreement, a Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Stock subject to an Award until a certificate or certificates evidencing shares of Stock shall have been issued to the Participant and, subject to
Section 12, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of any share for which the record date is prior to the date on which Participant shall become the holder of record thereof. 

15.6 Gender. Where the context requires, words in any gender shall include any other gender. 

15.7 Headings. Headings of Sections are inserted for convenience and reference; they do not constitute any part of this Plan.

 15.8 Expiration of the Plan. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 13, no Award may be granted
following the ten (10) year anniversary of the Effective Date and except with respect to outstanding Awards, this Plan shall terminate. 

15.9 No Right to Continuous Service. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award under the Plan shall confer upon any
Participant any right with respect to the continuation of service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate his or her Continuous Service at any time. Nothing
contained in the Plan shall confer upon any Participant or other person any claim or right to any Award under the Plan. 






 15.10 Withholding. Upon (a) disposition of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to
the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan within two (2) years of the grant of the Incentive Stock Option or within one (1) year after exercise of the Incentive Stock Option, or (b) exercise of a
Nonqualified Stock Option (or an Incentive Stock Option treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option), or the vesting or payment of any other Award under the Plan, or (c) under any other circumstances determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, the Company shall have the right to require any Participant, and such Participant by accepting the Awards granted under the Plan agrees, to pay to the Company the amount of any taxes which the Company shall be required to withhold with
respect thereto. In the event of clauses (a), (b) or (c), with the consent of the Committee, at its sole discretion, such Participant may elect to have the Company withhold shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of the
withholding tax obligation as determined by the Company; provided, however, that no shares of Stock are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law. Such shares so delivered to satisfy the
minimum withholding obligation may be either shares withheld by the Company upon the exercise of the Option or other shares. At the Committee’s sole discretion, a Participant may elect to have additional taxes withheld and satisfy such
withholding with cash or shares of Stock if, in the opinion of the Company’s outside accountants, doing so would not result in a charge against earnings. 

15.11 Nontransferability, Beneficiaries. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee with respect to the transferability of
Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) by a Participant to his Immediate Family Members (or to trusts or partnerships or limited liability companies established for such family members), no Award shall be assignable or transferable by the
Participant, otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a beneficiary designation, and Options shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant (or by the Participant’s
legal representatives in the event of the Participant’s incapacity). Each Participant may designate a beneficiary to exercise any Option held by the Participant at the time of the Participant’s death or to be assigned any other Award
outstanding at the time of the Participant’s death. If no beneficiary has been named by a deceased Participant, any Award held by the Participant at the time of death shall be transferred as provided in his will or by the laws of descent and
distribution. Except in the case of the holder’s incapacity, an Option may only be exercised by the holder thereof. 

15.12 Governing Law. The law of the State of California shall apply to all Awards and interpretations under the Plan regardless of
the effect of such state’s conflict of laws principles. 
 15.13 Unfunded Status. The Plan is intended to constitute
an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation and nothing contained in the Plan shall give any Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. To the extent applicable, this Plan is
intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the Committee shall interpret and administer the Plan in accordance therewith. In addition, any provision in this Plan document that is determined to violate the requirements of
Section 409A shall be void and without effect. In addition, any provision that is required to appear in this Plan document that is not expressly set forth shall be deemed to be set forth herein, and such Plan shall be administered in all
respects as if such provisions were expressly set forth.
