	7.	Transfer and Vesting of Options 

  

	7.1	Except as provided for under the Option Plan, the Options may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, mortgaged or otherwise disposed of, unless otherwise agreed by the Supervisory Board. The aforementioned
prohibition does not apply to the transmission of vested Options to the heirs of an Optionee, subject to the terms of the relevant Option Agreement. 

  

	7.2	The Option Agreement shall contain a vesting schedule relating to each Option. Unless otherwise determined by the Supervisory Board at the time the Option is granted, each Option will vest (i.e., such Option will
actually become exercisable) over a period of 4 years, whereby 25% of the Options will vest on the first anniversary of the Start Date and the remaining 75% of the Options will thereafter vest quarterly, in equal portions during the following 12
quarters. No Options may be exercised more than 10 years from the Start Date, unless the vesting is postponed pursuant to the terms of the relevant Option Agreement. If the vesting of Options for any year is postponed, the 10-year exercise period
shall be extended once by a maximum period of one year. 

  

	7.3	The exercisability of Options may in the sole discretion of the Supervisory Board be made subject to satisfaction of financial performance criteria relating to the earnings, revenues, profits or other results of the

or all Options thereunder. 

  

	7.4	The Options that have not vested in accordance with the vesting scheme as laid down in the Option Agreement are, unless otherwise agreed by the Supervisory Board, forfeited upon: 


 

	 	(i)	a moratorium of payments, bankruptcy, debt restructuring (schuldsanering) or similar proceedings being imposed on an Optionee; or the appointment of a guardian by a court (onder curatelestelling) or
curator in bankruptcy over an Optionee; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the occurrence of a Termination of Employment Event with respect to such Optionee. 


  

					
	AVG Option Plan 7 May 2013	  	7	  	 AVG Confidential











	7.5	Upon the occurrence of a Termination of Employment Event with respect to an Optionee the Optionee’s vested Options shall terminate or continue to be exercisable as set forth below: 


 

	 	(i)	In case of Termination for Cause of an Optionee’s employment, management, consultancy or other relevant business relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary, both the Options of such Optionee that have vested (to
the extent not exercised) and the Options of such Optionee that have not vested shall be forfeited at the moment of Termination for Cause, unless agreed otherwise by the Supervisory Board. 


 

	 	(ii)	In the case of a Termination Without Cause of an Optionee’s employment, management, consultancy or other business relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary, such Optionee may continue to exercise such
Optionee’s vested Options for a period of 90 days after the date of such Termination Without Cause, unless the Supervisory Board otherwise agrees. If such Options are not exercised within such 90-day period, such Options will, unless the
Supervisory Board otherwise agrees, be forfeited. 

  

	7.6	An Optionee incurs no right whatsoever to damages in respect of the lapse, annulment or the forfeiture of any Option pursuant to this Option Plan.

100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the Date of Grant with respect to Options granted to Optionees who are subject to taxation in the United States. 

  

	8.	Exercise of Options 

  

	8.1	All Options that have been granted under the Option Plan can be exercised, provided that they have vested in accordance with the relevant Option Agreement, and have not been forfeited. 


 

	8.2	An Optionee is required to notify the Administrator in writing of the exercise of Options. Options to the extent vested and exercisable can be exercised partially or all at once. An Optionee shall not be entitled to any
fractional Shares upon exercise of an Option. If any exercise of an Option would but for the provisions of the preceding sentence result in the issuance of fractional Shares, the number of Shares issued upon such exercise shall be rounded down to
the nearest whole number. 


  

					
	AVG Option Plan 7 May 2013	  	8	  	 AVG Confidential











	8.3	Within one (1) month after written notice by an Optionee of his exercise of Options the Shares in respect of which the Option has been exercised will be issued or transferred to the Optionee, against prior payment
of the Option Price in cash or in such other manner as is agreed by the Administrator or as is set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of Articles 8.4, 8.7 and 9.2, no Shares will be issued or transferred to the Optionee as long as the Optionee
has not paid the Option Price and taxes and any costs in connection with the exercise of the Option to the Company in full by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account of the Company designated by the Company. 


 

	8.4	At the sole discretion of the Administrator, the Company may settle its obligation to deliver Shares to an Optionee pursuant to this Option Plan or an Option Agreement by paying to the Optionee cash equal to the Fair
Market Value of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Options less the applicable Option Price for such Shares. 

  

	8.5	All the provisions in this Option Plan relating to exercise of Options are subject to restrictions regarding the exercise of options laid down in any applicable law. 


 

	8.6	Except as provided below, the Option Price in respect of any Options granted hereunder shall upon exercise of such Options be reduced by the hypothetical amount of dividends (including ordinary dividends) or other
distributions that would have been payable on the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised if such Shares had been issued to the relevant Optionee immediately after the Options with respect to such Shares first vested. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in respect of any Option granted to an Optionee who is subject to taxation in the United States, the Option Price shall not be reduced by the hypothetical amount of ordinary dividends and any adjustment with respect to extraordinary
dividends or other distributions shall not be made contingent on the exercise of the Option. The Option Price shall not in any event be reduced below €0.01 per Share as a result of the operation of this Article 8.6. 


 

	8.7	Provided there is a public market for the Shares at the time of exercise and pursuant to rules and procedures established by the Administrator from time to time, the Optionee may exercise Options through the delivery of
irrevocable instruments to a broker to sell: 

  

	 	(i)	all Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised; or 

  

	 	(ii)	a portion of Shares in respect of which the Option is exercised which shall at least cover an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased and any taxes due by the Company and/or its
affiliates in connection with the exercise of the Option. 


  

					
	AVG Option Plan 7 May 2013	  	9	  	 AVG Confidential










 If the Optionee chooses to exercise Options in accordance with this Article 8.7 (i) or (ii),
any taxes and any costs in connection with the exercise of the Option, including commissions and other brokerage fees, shall be deducted and any proceeds remaining are paid over to the Optionee. 

 

	9.	Acceleration of Options upon Liquidity Event 

  

	9.1	Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, the Supervisory Board may in its sole discretion declare that (i) the Options of one or more Optionees vest immediately and are therefore immediately exercisable and the
vesting schedule as set forth in the relevant Option Agreements shall not be applicable and/or (ii) Options that have not vested as of the date of the relevant Liquidity Event shall cease to be exercisable after the occurrence of the relevant
Liquidity Event and are thus forfeited. 

  

	9.2	In the case of a transfer of Shares in connection with a Liquidity Event the price payable for the Shares shall be equal to the price paid by the purchaser in the Liquidity Event for the other shares of the Company
(other than unvested shares issued pursuant to subscription agreements providing for forfeiture of unvested shares) or the substantial economic equivalent thereof as determined by the Supervisory Board acting in good faith. 


 

	10.	Taxes 

  

	10.1	The Company and/or its Subsidiaries shall have the right to withhold from any salary, severance or other amounts payable by the Company or a Subsidiary to an Optionee, or to otherwise require payment by the Optionee of,
any taxes and/or social security contributions payable by the Optionee in connection with his participation in the Option Plan as well as any taxes and/or social security contributions payable by the Optionee in connection with any exercise of
Options. 

  

	10.2	An Optionee is and remains at all times fully responsible for the payment of any taxes and/or social security contributions payable by the Optionee in connection with his or her participation in the Option Plan.



  

					
	AVG Option Plan 7 May 2013	  	10	  	 AVG Confidential











	11.	No employment condition 

 The participation of an Optionee in the Option Plan does not
constitute remuneration for any employment activity. The Options are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, and/or service payments,
bonuses, long service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments. 
  

	12.	Anti-dilution adjustment 

 Subject to any required action by the General Meeting of
Shareholders and other corporate bodies of the Company, the number and type of Shares corresponding with and covered by each outstanding Option, as well as the price per Share corresponding with and covered by each such outstanding Option, and the
total number and type of Shares issuable under this Option Plan, shall be proportionally adjusted in such manner as the Supervisory Board acting in good faith shall deem appropriate for (a) any increase or decrease in the number of issued
shares of the Company resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, or reclassification of shares, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of the Company effected without receipt of cash
consideration by the Company (including proportionate issuances of shares to all holders of shares of the Company by way of conversion of share premium) or (b) the occurrence of any other event which in the good faith judgment of the
Supervisory Board has substantially the same economic effect as any of the events described in clause (a) of this sentence. Such adjustment shall be made by the Supervisory Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding, and
conclusive. Except as expressly provided in this Article 12, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the
number or price of Shares subject to an Option, unless otherwise determined by the Supervisory Board. 
  

	13.	Confidentiality 

 By executing an Option Agreement, the Optionee accepts an obligation
not to disclose any information regarding the Option Plan, or any information in connection therewith, unless such Optionee is legally obliged to disclose such information by law or stock exchange regulations.

	15.	Amendment and Revocation

affect the rights relating to any Options granted or Shares acquired upon exercise of Options prior to that time, unless required pursuant to Article 15.2 and further provided that any increase in the number of Shares issuable hereunder shall
require the approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders or other body then authorized to issue Shares pursuant to the Articles of Association of the Company. 

  


	15.2	The Supervisory Board has the authority to take any action consistent with the terms of the Option Plan, which it deems necessary or advisable to comply with any laws or regulatory requirements, including but not
limited to, modifying or amending the terms and conditions governing Option Agreements, or establishing any local country plans as sub-plans to this Option Plan.
