of the events in subsections (i) through (iv) below. For purposes of this definition, a person, entity or group shall be deemed
to “Own,” to have “Owned,” to be the “Owner” of, or to have acquired “Ownership”

person, entity or group becomes the Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent
(50%) of the combined Voting Power of the Company’s then outstanding securities other than by virtue of a merger, consolidation,
exchange, reorganization or similar transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control shall not be deemed to occur
(A) on account of the acquisition of securities of the Company by an investor, any affiliate thereof or any other person, entity
or group from the Company in a transaction or series of related transactions the primary purpose of which is to obtain financing
for the Company through the issuance of equity securities or (B) solely because the level of Ownership held by any person, entity
or group (the “Subject Person”) exceeds the designated percentage threshold of the Voting Power as a result of a repurchase
or other acquisition of voting securities by the Company reducing the number of shares outstanding, provided that if a Change of
Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of voting securities by the Company,
and after such share acquisition, the Subject Person becomes the Owner of any additional voting securities that, assuming the repurchase
or other acquisition had not occurred, increases the percentage of the then outstanding voting securities Owned by the Subject
Person over the designated percentage threshold, then a Change of Control shall be deemed to occur;

representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding Voting Power of the surviving entity in such merger, consolidation
or similar transaction or (B) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding Voting Power of the parent of the surviving
entity in such merger, consolidation, exchange, reorganization or similar transaction, in each case in substantially the same proportions
as their Ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction;

consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, other than a sale, lease, license or other disposition of all or substantially
all of the total gross value of the consolidated assets of the Company and its subsidiaries to an entity, more than fifty percent
(50%) of the combined Voting Power of the voting securities of which are Owned by shareholders of the Company in substantially
the same proportions as their Ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such sale, lease,
license or other disposition (for purposes of this Section 1(f)(iii), “gross value” means the value of the assets of
the Company or the value of the assets being disposed of, as the case may be, determined without regard to any liabilities associated
with such assets); or

for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board at any time during that consecutive twelve-month period;
provided, however, that if the appointment or election (or nomination for election) of any new Board member was approved or recommended
by a majority vote of the members of the Incumbent Board then still in office, such new member shall, for purposes of the Plan,
be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board.


 


For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Change
of Control” shall not include a sale of assets, merger or other transaction effected exclusively for the purpose of changing
the domicile of the Company. To the extent required, the determination of whether a Change of Control has occurred shall be made

The Plan shall be effective
on the Effective Date; provided, however, that adoption of the Plan shall be and is expressly subject to the condition of approval
by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the Effective Date. Although Awards may be granted
prior to the date the amendment and restatement of the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company, any Incentive Stock
Options granted after the Effective Date shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options if shareholder approval is not obtained

by Administrator. The Administrator may delegate to one or more Committees and/or sub-Committees, or to one or more officers
of the Company and/or its Affiliates, or to one or more agents and/or advisors, such administrative duties or powers as it may
deem advisable. The Administrator or any Committees or individuals to whom it has delegated duties or powers as aforesaid may employ
one or more individuals to render advice with respect to any responsibility of the Administrator or such Committees or individuals
may have under the Plan. The Administrator may, by resolution, authorize one or more officers of the Company to do one or both
of the following on the same basis as can the Administrator: (i) designate Employees to be recipients of Awards and (ii) determine
the size of any such Awards; provided, however, (x) the Committee shall not delegate such responsibilities to any such officer
for Awards granted to an Employee who is considered an Insider; (y) the resolution providing such authorization sets forth the
total number of Awards such officer(s) may grant; and (z) the officer(s) shall report periodically to the Administrator regarding
the nature and scope of the Awards granted pursuant to the authority delegated.

(c)          Powers
of Administrator. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Administrator shall have all of the powers vested in it under the

shall be granted; the individuals to whom, and the time or times at which, Awards shall be granted; the number of shares subject
to each Award; the exercise price of Options granted hereunder; and the performance criteria, if any, and any other terms and conditions
of each Award. The Administrator shall have full power and authority to administer and interpret the Plan, to make and amend rules,
regulations and guidelines for administering the Plan, to prescribe the form and conditions of the respective Agreements evidencing
each Award (which may vary from Participant to Participant), to amend or revise Agreements evidencing any Award (to the extent
the amended terms would be permitted by the Plan and provided that no such revision or amendment, except as is authorized in Section
15, shall impair the terms and conditions of any Award which is outstanding on the date of such revision or amendment to the material
detriment of the Participant in the absence of the consent of the Participant), and to make all other determinations necessary
or advisable for the administration of the Plan (including to correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or any
Agreement, to the extent permitted by law and the Plan). The Administrator’s interpretation of the Plan, and all actions
taken and determinations made by the Administrator pursuant to the power vested in it hereunder, shall be conclusive and binding
on all parties concerned.


 


(d)          Limitation
on Liability; Actions of Committees. No member of the Board or a Committee shall be liable for any action taken or determination
made in good faith in connection with the administration of the Plan. In the event the Board appoints a Committee as provided hereunder,

to the administration of the Plan shall be taken pursuant to a majority vote of the Committee members or pursuant to the written
resolution of all Committee members.


 


SECTION 5.


PARTICIPANTS


 


The Administrator may
grant Awards under the Plan to any Employee, Director, or Consultant; provided, however, that only Employees are eligible to receive

to be optioned or awarded to each such Participant and any Performance Objectives applicable to Awards. The Administrator may from
time to time designate individuals as being ineligible to participate in the Plan. The power of the Administrator under this Section

SECTION 6.


STOCK


 


(a)        Number of
Shares Reserved. The stock to be awarded or optioned under the Plan (the “Share Authorization”) shall consist of
authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Common Stock. Subject to Section 15 of the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock reserved and available for Awards under the Plan is reserved and available for Awards under the Plan is
One Million Five Hundred Thousand (1,500,000) shares, provided that all shares of Stock reserved and available under the Plan shall
constitute the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued through Incentive Stock Options.


 


(b)         Fungible
Share Reserve. To the extent that a share of Common Stock is granted pursuant to a Full Value Award, it shall reduce the Share
Authorization by one and one half (1.5) shares of Common Stock; and, to the extent that a share of Common Stock is granted pursuant
to an Award other than a Full Value Award, it shall reduce the Share Authorization by one (1) share of Common Stock.


 


(c)        Share Usage.
The following shares of Common Stock shall not reduce the Share Authorization and shall continue to be reserved and available for
Awards granted pursuant to the Plan: (i) all or any portion of any outstanding Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit
that expires or is forfeited for any reason, or that is terminated prior to the vesting or lapsing of the risks of forfeiture on
such Award, and (ii) shares of Common Stock covered by an Award to the extent the Award is settled in cash; provided, however,
that the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to a Stock Appreciation Right shall reduce the Share Authorization, whether
such Stock Appreciation Right is settled in cash or shares of Common Stock. Any shares of Common Stock withheld to satisfy tax
withholding obligations on an Award, shares of Common Stock withheld to pay the exercise price of an Option, and shares of Common
Stock subject to a broker-assisted cashless exercise of an Option shall reduce the Share Authorization.


 


(d)          Annual
Award Limits. Unless and until the Administrator determines that an Award to a Covered Employee shall not be Performance-Based
Compensation, the following limits (each, an “Annual Award Limit,” and collectively, “Annual Award Limits”)
shall apply to grants of such Awards under the Plan:


 


(i)          Options
and Stock Appreciation Rights. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to Options granted and shares of Common
Stock subject to Stock Appreciation Rights granted in any one calendar year to any one Participant shall be, in the aggregate,
Three Hundred Thousand (300,000) shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 15.


 


(ii)         Restricted
Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units. The maximum grant with respect Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units
in any one calendar year to any one Participant shall be, in the aggregate, Three Hundred Thousand (300,000) shares, subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 15.


 


(iii)        Performance
Awards. To the extent payable in or measured by the value of shares of Stock, in no event shall a Participant be granted Performance

SECTION 7.


PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES


 


(a)          Performance
Objectives. For any Awards to Covered Employees that are intended to qualify as “Performance-Based Compensation”
under Code Section 162(m), the Performance Objectives shall be limited to any one, or a combination of, (i) revenue or net sales,
(ii) operating income, (iii) net income (before or after taxes), (iv) earnings per share, (v) earnings before or after taxes, interest,
depreciation and/or amortization, (vi) gross profit margin, (vii) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on invested
capital, assets, capital, equity, sales), (viii) increase in revenue or net sales, (ix) operating expense ratios, (x) operating
expense targets, (xi) productivity ratios, (xii) gross or operating margins, (xiii) cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating
cash flow, free cash flow, cash flow return on equity and cash flow return on investment), (xiv) working capital targets, (xv)
capital expenditures, (xvi) share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total shareholder return), (xvii) appreciation
in the fair market value or book value of the Common Stock, (xviii) debt to equity ratio or debt levels, and (xix) market share,
in all cases including, if selected by the Administrator, threshold, target and maximum levels.


 


Any Performance Objective
may be used to measure the performance of the Company and/or Affiliate, as a whole or with respect to any business unit, or any
combination thereof as the Administrator may deem appropriate, or any of the specified Performance Objectives as compared to the
performance of a group of competitor companies, or published or special index that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate. The Administrator also has the authority to provide for accelerated vesting of any Award based on the achievement
of performance goals pursuant to the Performance Objectives; provided, however, that such authority shall be subject to Code Section
162(m) with respect to Awards intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation.


 


(b)          Evaluation
of Performance Objectives. The Administrator may provide in any Award based on Performance Objectives that any evaluation of
performance may include or exclude any of the following events that occurs during a Performance Period: (i) asset write-downs,
(ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or other laws
or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) any reorganization and restructuring programs, (v) extraordinary nonrecurring items
as described in FASB Accounting Standards Codification 225-20—Extraordinary and Unusual Items and/or in Management's Discussion
and Analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company's annual report to shareholders for the
applicable year, (vi) acquisitions or divestitures, and (vii) foreign exchange gains and losses. To the extent such inclusions
or exclusions affect Awards to Covered Employees, they shall be prescribed in a form that meets the requirements of Code Section
162(m) for deductibility.


 




    	9



    	 



    

 


(c)          Adjustment
of Performance-Based Compensation. Awards that are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation may not be adjusted
upward. The Administrator shall retain the discretion to adjust such Awards downward, either on a formula or discretionary basis
or any combination, as the Administrator determines.


 


(d)          Administrator
Discretion. In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to permit Administrator discretion to alter the
governing Performance Objectives without obtaining shareholder approval of such changes, the Administrator shall have sole discretion
to make such changes without obtaining shareholder approval. In addition, in the event that the Administrator determines that it
is advisable to grant Awards that shall not qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the Administrator may make such grants without
satisfying the requirements of Code Section 162(m) and, in such case, may apply performance objectives other than those set forth
in this Section 7.


 


SECTION 8.


PAYMENT OF OPTION EXERCISE PRICE


 


Upon the exercise of
an Option, Participants may pay the exercise price of an Option (i) in cash, or with a personal check, certified check, or other
cash equivalent, (ii) by the surrender by the Participant to the Company of previously acquired unencumbered shares of Common Stock
(through physical delivery or attestation), (iii) through the withholding of shares of Common Stock from the number of shares otherwise
issuable upon the exercise of the Option (e.g., a net share settlement), (iv) through broker-assisted cashless exercise
if such exercise complies with applicable securities laws and any insider trading policy of the Company, (v) such other form of
payment as may be authorized by the Administrator, or (vi) by a combination thereof. In the event the Participant elects to pay
the exercise price, in whole or in part, with previously acquired shares of Common Stock or through a net share settlement, the
then-current Fair Market Value of the stock delivered or withheld shall equal the total exercise price for the shares being purchased
in such manner.


 


The Administrator may,
in its sole discretion, limit the forms of payment available to the Participant and may exercise such discretion any time prior
to the termination of the Option granted to the Participant or upon any exercise of the Option by the Participant. “Previously
acquired shares of Common Stock” means shares of Common Stock which the Participant owns on the date of exercise (or for
the period of time, if any, as may be required by generally accepted accounting principles or any successor principles applicable
to the Company).


 


With respect to payment
in the form of Common Stock, the Administrator may require advance approval or adopt such rules as it deems necessary to assure
compliance with Rule 16b-3, if applicable.


 


SECTION 9.


TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF INCENTIVE
STOCK OPTIONS


 


Each Incentive Stock
Option shall be evidenced by an Incentive Stock Option Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms
and conditions:


 




    	10



    	 



    

 


(a)          Number
of Shares and Exercise Price. The Incentive Stock Option Agreement shall state the total number of shares covered by the
Incentive Stock Option. Except as permitted by Code Section 424(a), or any successor provision, the exercise price per share
shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the per share Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the
Administrator grants the Incentive Stock Option; provided, however, that if a Participant owns stock possessing more than ten
percent (10%) of the total combined Voting Power of all classes of stock of the Company or of its Parent or any Subsidiary,
the exercise price per share of an Incentive Stock Option granted to such Participant shall not be less than one hundred ten
percent (110%) of the per share Fair Market Value of Common Stock on the date of the grant of the Incentive Stock Option. The
Administrator shall have full authority and discretion in establishing the exercise price and shall be fully protected in so
doing.


 


(b)          Exercisability
and Term. The Incentive Stock Option Agreement shall state when the Incentive Stock Option becomes exercisable (i.e.
“vests”), and, if applicable in the Administrator’s discretion, shall describe the Performance Objectives and
Performance Period upon which vesting is based, the manner in which performance shall be measured and the extent to which partial
achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in vesting of the Option. The Participant may exercise the Incentive Stock
Option, in full or in part, upon or after the vesting date of such Option (or portion thereof). Notwithstanding anything in the
Plan or the Agreement to the contrary, the Participant may not exercise an Incentive Stock Option after the maximum term of such
Option, as such term is specified in the Incentive Stock Option Agreement. Except as permitted by Code Section 424(a), in no event
shall any Incentive Stock Option be exercisable during a term of more than ten (10) years after the date on which it is granted;
provided, however, that if a Participant owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined Voting Power of
all classes of stock of the Company or of its Parent or any Subsidiary, the Incentive Stock Option granted to such Participant
shall be exercisable during a term of not more than five (5) years after the date on which it is granted. The Administrator may
accelerate the exercisability of any Incentive Stock Option granted hereunder which is not immediately exercisable as of the date
of grant.


 


(c)          No
Rights as Shareholder. A Participant (or the Participant’s successors) shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect
to any shares covered by an Incentive Stock Option until the date of the issuance of the Common Stock subject to such Award upon
exercise, as evidenced by a stock certificate or as reflected in the books and records of the Company or its designated agent (i.e.,
a “book entry”). No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities
or other property), distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are actually issued
(as evidenced in either certificated or book entry form).


 




    	11



    	 



    

 


(d)          Withholding.
The Company or its Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any future payments to the Participant all legally required
amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s exercise
of an Incentive Stock Option or a “disqualifying disposition” of shares acquired through the exercise of an Incentive
Stock Option as defined in Code Section 421(b), to require the Participant to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding
requirements, or to require any combination thereof. In the event the Participant is required under the Incentive Stock Option
Agreement to pay the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company respecting payment of, such withholding and employment-related
taxes, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part,
by delivering shares of Common Stock or by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to the
Participant as a result of the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. Such shares shall have a Fair Market Value equal to the
minimum required tax withholding, based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including
payroll taxes, that are applicable to the supplemental income resulting from such exercise or disqualifying disposition. In no
event may the Participant deliver shares, nor may the Company or any Affiliate withhold shares, having a Fair Market Value in excess
of such statutory minimum required tax withholding. The Participant’s delivery of shares or the withholding of shares for
this purpose shall occur on or before the later of (i) the date the Incentive Stock Option is exercised or the date of the disqualifying
disposition, as the case may be, or (ii) the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined under applicable tax law.


 


(e)          Vesting
Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date an
Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable
for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under the Plan and any other “incentive stock option”
plans of the Company or any Affiliate shall not exceed $100,000 (or such other amount as may be prescribed by the Code from time
to time); provided, however, that if the exercisability or vesting of an Incentive Stock Option is accelerated as permitted under
the provisions of the Plan and such acceleration would result in a violation of the limit imposed by this Section 9(e), such acceleration
shall be of full force and effect but the number of shares of Common Stock that exceed such limit shall be treated as having been
granted pursuant to a Nonqualified Stock Option; and provided, further, that the limits imposed by this Section 9(e) shall be applied
to all outstanding Incentive Stock Options under the Plan and any other “incentive stock option” plans of the Company
or any Affiliate in chronological order according to the dates of grant.


 


(f)          Other
Provisions. The Incentive Stock Option Agreement authorized under this Section 9 shall contain such other provisions as the
Administrator shall deem advisable. Any such Incentive Stock Option Agreement shall contain such limitations and restrictions upon
the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option as shall be necessary to ensure that such Incentive Stock Option will be considered
an “incentive stock option” as defined in Code Section 422 or to conform to any change therein.


 


SECTION 10.


TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF NONQUALIFIED
STOCK OPTIONS


 


Each Nonqualified Stock
Option shall be evidenced by a Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms
and conditions:


 


(a)          Number
of Shares and Exercise Price. The Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement shall state the total number of shares covered by the
Nonqualified Stock Option. The exercise price per share shall be equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the per share Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant of the Nonqualified Stock Option, or such higher price as the Administrator determines.


 




    	12



    	 



    

 


(b)          Exercisability
and Term. The Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement shall state when the Nonqualified Stock Option becomes exercisable (i.e.
“vests”) and, if applicable in the Administrator’s discretion, shall describe the Performance Objectives and
Performance Period upon which vesting is based, the manner in which performance shall be measured and the extent to which partial
achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in vesting of the Option. The Participant may exercise the Nonqualified Stock
Option, in full or in part, upon or after the vesting date of such Option (or portion thereof); provided, however, that the Participant
may not exercise a Nonqualified Stock Option after the maximum term of such Option, as such term is specified in the Nonqualified
Stock Option Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator and specified in the Agreement governing the Award, no
Nonqualified Stock Option shall be exercisable during a term of more than ten (10) years after the date on which it is granted.
The Administrator may accelerate the exercisability of any Nonqualified Stock Option granted hereunder which is not immediately
exercisable as of the date of grant.


 


(c)          No
Rights as Shareholder. A Participant (or the Participant’s successors) shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect
to any shares covered by a Nonqualified Stock Option until the date of the issuance of the Common Stock subject to such Award upon
exercise, as evidenced by a stock certificate or as reflected in the books and records of the Company or its designated agent (i.e.,
a “book entry”). No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities
or other property), distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are actually issued
(as evidenced in either certificated or book entry form).


 


(d)          Withholding.
The Company or its Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any future payments to the Participant all legally required
amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s exercise
of a Nonqualified Stock Option, to require the Participant to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements,
or to require any combination thereof. In the event the Participant is required under the Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement to
pay the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company respecting payment of, such withholding and employment-related
taxes, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part,
by delivering shares of Common Stock or by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to the
Participant as a result of the exercise of the Nonqualified Stock Option. Such shares shall have a Fair Market Value equal to the
minimum required tax withholding, based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including
payroll taxes, that are applicable to the supplemental income resulting from such exercise. In no event may the Participant deliver
shares, nor may the Company or any Affiliate withhold shares, having a Fair Market Value in excess of such statutory minimum required
tax withholding. The Participant’s delivery of shares or the withholding of shares for this purpose shall occur on or before
the later of (i) the date the Nonqualified Stock Option is exercised, or (ii) the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is
determined under applicable tax law.


 




    	13



    	 



    

 


(e)          Other
Provisions. The Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement authorized under this Section 10 shall contain such other provisions as
the Administrator shall deem advisable.


 


SECTION 11.


RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS


 


Each Restricted Stock
Award shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Award Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and
conditions:


 


(a)          Number
of Shares. The Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall state the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Restricted
Stock Award.


 


(b)          Risks
of Forfeiture. The Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall set forth the risks of forfeiture, if any, which shall apply to the
shares of Common Stock covered by the Restricted Stock Award and the manner in which such risks of forfeiture shall lapse, including,
if applicable in the Administrator’s discretion, a description of the Performance Objectives and Performance Period upon
which the lapse of risks of forfeiture is based, the manner in which performance shall be measured and the extent to which partial
achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in lapse of risks of forfeiture. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion,
modify the manner in which such risks of forfeiture shall lapse but only with respect to those shares of Common Stock which are
restricted as of the effective date of the modification.


 


(c)          Issuance
of Shares; Rights as Shareholder. Except as provided below, the Company shall cause a stock certificate to be issued and shall
deliver such certificate to the Participant or hold such certificate in a manner determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion;
provided, however, that in lieu of a stock certificate, the Company may evidence the issuance of shares by a book entry in the
records of the Company or its designated agent (if permitted by the Company’s designated agent and applicable law, as determined
by the Administrator in its sole discretion). The Company shall cause a legend or notation to be placed on such certificate or
book entry describing the risks of forfeiture and other transfer restrictions set forth in the Participant’s Restricted Stock
Award Agreement and providing for the cancellation and, if applicable, return of such certificate or book entry if the shares of
Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award are forfeited. Until the risks of forfeiture have lapsed or the shares subject
to such Restricted Stock Award have been forfeited, the Participant shall be entitled to vote the shares of Common Stock represented
by such stock certificates and shall receive all dividends attributable to such shares, but the Participant shall not have any
other rights as a shareholder with respect to such shares.


 




    	14



    	 



    

 


(d)          Withholding
Taxes. The Company or its Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any future payments to the Participant all
legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s
Restricted Stock Award, to require the Participant to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements, or to
require any combination thereof. In the event the Participant is required under the Restricted Stock Award Agreement to pay the
Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company respecting payment of, such withholding and employment-related taxes,
the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, by delivering
shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the Restricted Stock Award on which the risks of
forfeiture have lapsed. Such shares shall have a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum required tax withholding, based on the
minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to the supplemental
income resulting from the lapsing of the risks of forfeiture on such Restricted Stock Award. In no event may the Participant deliver
shares having a Fair Market Value in excess of such statutory minimum required tax withholding. The Participant’s delivery
of shares shall occur on or before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined under applicable tax law.


 


(e)          Other
Provisions. The Restricted Stock Award Agreement authorized under this Section 11 shall contain such other provisions as the
Administrator shall deem advisable.


 


SECTION 12.


RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS


 


Each Restricted Stock
Unit shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and
conditions:


 


(a)          Number
of Shares. The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall state the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Restricted
Stock Unit.


 


(b)          Vesting.
The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall set forth the vesting conditions, if any, which shall apply to the Restricted Stock Unit
and the manner in which such vesting may occur, including, if applicable in the Administrator’s discretion, a description
of the Performance Objectives and Performance Period upon which vesting is based, the manner in which performance shall be measured
and the extent to which partial achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in vesting of the Restricted Stock Unit. The
Administrator may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any Restricted Stock Unit.


 


(c)          Issuance
of Shares; Rights as Shareholder. The Participant shall be entitled to payment of the Restricted Stock Unit as the units subject
to such Award vest. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, pay Restricted Stock Units in shares of Common Stock, cash in
an amount equal to the Fair Market Value, on the date of payment, of the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Award
that have vested on the applicable payment date, or any combination thereof, as specified in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
If payment is made in shares of Common Stock, the Administrator shall cause to be issued one or more stock certificates in the
Participant’s name and shall deliver such certificates to the Participant in satisfaction of such units; provided, however,
that in lieu of stock certificates, the Company may evidence such shares by a book entry in the records of the Company or its designated
agent (if permitted by the Company’s designated agent and applicable law, as determined by the Administrator in its sole
discretion). Until the units subject to the Restricted Stock Unit have vested, the Participant shall not be entitled to vote any
shares of Common Stock which may be acquired through the Award, shall not receive any dividends attributable to such shares, and
shall not have any other rights as a shareholder with respect to such shares.


 




    	15



    	 



    

 


(d)          Withholding
Taxes. The Company or its Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any future payments to the Participant all
legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s
Restricted Stock Unit, to require the Participant to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements, or to
require any combination thereof. In the event the Participant is required under the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement to pay the
Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company respecting payment of, such withholding and employment-related taxes,
the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, by delivering
shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the Restricted Stock Unit. Such shares shall have
a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum required tax withholding, based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal
and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to the supplemental income resulting from the payment of such
Restricted Stock Unit. In no event may the Participant deliver shares having a Fair Market Value in excess of such statutory minimum
required tax withholding. The Participant’s delivery of shares for this purpose shall occur on or before the date that the
amount of tax to be withheld is determined under applicable tax law.


 


(e)          Other
Provisions. The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement authorized under this Section 12 shall contain such other provisions as the
Administrator shall deem advisable.


 


SECTION 13.


PERFORMANCE AWARDS


 


Each Performance Award
granted pursuant to this Section 13 shall be evidenced by a written performance award agreement (the “Performance Award Agreement”).
The Performance Award Agreement shall be in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Administrator and may vary from
Participant to Participant; provided, however, that each Participant and each Performance Award Agreement shall comply with and
be subject to the following terms and conditions:


 


(a)          Awards.
Performance Awards in the form of Performance Units or Performance Shares may be granted to any Participant in the Plan. Performance
Units shall consist of monetary awards which may be earned or become vested in whole or in part if the Company or the Participant
achieves certain Performance Objectives established by the Administrator over a specified Performance Period. Performance Shares
shall consist of shares of Stock or other Awards denominated in shares of Stock that may be earned or become vested in whole or
in part if the Company or the Participant achieves certain Performance Objectives established by the Administrator over a specified
Performance Period.


 


(b)          Performance
Objectives, Performance Period and Payment. The Performance Award Agreement shall set forth:


 


(i)          the
number of Performance Units or Performance Shares subject to the Performance Award, and the dollar value of each Performance Unit;


 




    	16



    	 



    

 


(ii)        one or more
Performance Objectives established by the Administrator;


 


(iii)        the
Performance Period over which Performance Units or Performance Shares may be earned or may become vested;


 


(iv)        the
extent to which partial achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in a payment or vesting of the Performance Award,
as determined by the Administrator; and


 


(v)         the
date upon which payment of Performance Units will be made or Performance Shares will be issued, as the case may be, and the extent
to which such payment or the receipt of such Performance Shares or Performance Units may be deferred.


 


(c)          Withholding
Taxes. The Company or its Affiliates shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from future wages of the Participant all legally
required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s
Performance Award. In the event the Participant is required under the Performance Award Agreement to pay the Company or its Affiliates,
or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company or its Affiliates respecting payment of, such withholding and employment-related
taxes, the Administrator may, in its discretion and pursuant to such rules as it may adopt, permit the Participant to satisfy such
obligations, in whole or in part, by delivering shares of Common Stock, including shares of Stock received pursuant to the Performance
Award. Such shares shall have a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum required tax withholding, based on the minimum statutory
withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes. In no event may the Participant deliver shares having
a Fair Market Value in excess of such statutory minimum required tax withholding. The Participant’s election to deliver shares
of Common Stock for this purpose shall be made on or before the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is determined under
applicable tax law. Such election shall be approved by the Administrator and otherwise comply with such rules as the Administrator
may adopt to assure compliance with Rule 16b-3, or any successor provision, as then in effect, of the General Rules and Regulations
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, if applicable.


 


(d)          Nontransferability.
No Performance Award shall be transferable, in whole or in part, by the Participant, other than by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution. If the Participant shall attempt any transfer of any Performance Award granted under the Plan, such transfer
shall be void and the Performance Award shall terminate.


 


(e)          No
Rights as Shareholder. A Participant (or the Participant’s successor or successors) shall have no rights as a shareholder
with respect to any shares covered by a Performance Award until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate evidencing such
shares. No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other property), distributions
or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is actually issued (except as otherwise provided
in Section 14 of the Plan).


 




    	17



    	 



    

 


(f)          Other
Provisions. The Performance Award Agreement authorized under this Section 12 shall contain such other provisions as the Administrator
shall deem advisable.


 


SECTION 14.


STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS


 


Each Stock Appreciation
Right shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, which shall comply with and be subject to the following terms
and conditions:


 


(a)          Awards.
A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant to receive, upon exercise, cash, shares of Common Stock, or any combination
thereof, having a value equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Common Stock on the
date of such exercise, over (ii) a specified exercise price. The number of shares and the exercise price of the Stock Appreciation
Right shall be determined by the Administrator on the date of grant. The specified exercise price shall be equal to 100% of the
Fair Market Value of such shares of Common Stock on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right, or such higher price as
the Administrator determines. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted independent of or in tandem with a previously or contemporaneously
granted Option.


 


(b)          Exercisability
and Term. The Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall state when the Stock Appreciation Right becomes exercisable (i.e.,
“vests”) and, if applicable in the Administrator’s discretion, shall describe the Performance Objectives
and Performance Period upon which vesting is based, the manner in which performance shall be measured and the extent to which partial
achievement of the Performance Objectives may result in vesting of the Stock Appreciation Right. The Participant may exercise the
Stock Appreciation Right, in full or in part, upon or after the vesting date of such Stock Appreciation Right (or portion thereof);
provided, however, that the Participant may not exercise a Stock Appreciation Right after the maximum term of such Stock Appreciation
Right, as such term is specified in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator and
specified in the Agreement governing the Award, no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable during a term of more than ten
(10) years after the date on which it is granted.


 


The Administrator may
accelerate the exercisability of any Stock Appreciation Right granted hereunder which is not immediately exercisable as of the
date of grant. If a Stock Appreciation Right is granted in tandem with an Option, the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall
set forth the extent to which the exercise of all or a portion of the Stock Appreciation Right shall cancel a corresponding portion
of the Option, and the extent to which the exercise of all or a portion of the Option shall cancel a corresponding portion of the
Stock Appreciation Right.


 




    	18



    	 



    

 


(c)          Withholding
Taxes. The Company or its Affiliate shall be entitled to withhold and deduct from any future payments to the Participant all
legally required amounts necessary to satisfy any and all withholding and employment-related taxes attributable to the Participant’s
Stock Appreciation Right, to require the Participant to remit an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements, or
to require any combination thereof. In the event the Participant is required under the Stock Appreciation Right to pay the Company
or its Affiliate, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company or its Affiliate respecting payment of, such withholding and
employment-related taxes, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to satisfy such obligation, in
whole or in part, by delivering shares of Common Stock or by electing to have the Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise
issuable to the Participant as a result of the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right. Such shares shall have a Fair Market Value
equal to the minimum required tax withholding, based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes,
including payroll taxes, that are applicable to the supplemental income resulting from such exercise. In no event may the Participant
deliver shares, nor may the Company or any Affiliate withhold shares, having a Fair Market Value in excess of such statutory minimum
required tax withholding. The Participant’s delivery of shares or the withholding of shares for this purpose shall occur
on or before the later of (i) the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, or (ii) the date that the amount of tax to be
withheld is determined under applicable tax law.


 


(d)          No
Rights as Shareholder. A Participant (or the Participant’s successors) shall have no rights as a shareholder with respect
to any shares covered by a Stock Appreciation Right until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate evidencing such shares;
provided, however, that in lieu of stock certificates, the Company may evidence such shares by a book entry in the records of the
Company or its designated agent (if permitted by the Company’s designated agent and applicable law, as determined by the
Administrator in its sole discretion). No adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities
or other property), distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate is actually
issued or such book entry is made.


 


(e)          Other
Provisions. The Stock Appreciation Right Agreement authorized under this Section 14 shall contain such other provisions as
the Administrator shall deem advisable, including but not limited to any restrictions on the exercise of the Stock Appreciation
Right which may be necessary to comply with Rule 16b-3.


 


SECTION 15.


RECAPITALIZATION, EXCHANGE, 


LIQUIDATION, OR CHANGE OF CONTROL


 


(a)          In
General. In the event of an increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock dividend, stock
split, reverse split, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued
shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, other than due to conversion of the convertible
securities of the Company, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, adjust the value determinations applicable to outstanding
Awards and the Plan in order to reflect such change, including adjustment of the class and number of shares of stock reserved under
Section 6 of the Plan, the class and number of shares of stock covered by each outstanding Award, and, if and as applicable, the
exercise price per share of each outstanding Award and the Annual Award Limits. Additional shares which may become covered by the
Award pursuant to such adjustment shall be subject to the same restrictions as are applicable to the shares with respect to which
the adjustment relates.


 




    	19



    	 



    

 


(b)          Liquidation.
Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement evidencing an Award, in the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the
Administrator may provide for one or both of the following:


 


(i)          the
acceleration of the exercisability of any or all outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, the vesting and payment of any
or all Performance Awards, or Restricted Stock Units, or the lapsing of the risks of forfeiture on any or all Restricted Stock
Awards; provided, however, that no such acceleration, vesting or payment shall occur if the acceleration, vesting or payment would
violate the requirements of Code Section 409A; or


 


(ii)         the
complete termination of the Plan and the cancellation of any or all Awards (or portions thereof) which have not been exercised,
have not vested, or remain subject to risks of forfeiture, as applicable, in each case immediately prior to the completion of such
a dissolution or liquidation.


 


(c)          Change
of Control. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement evidencing an Award, in the event of a Change of Control, the Administrator
may provide for one or more of the following:


 


(i)          the
acceleration of the exercisability, vesting, or lapse of the risks of forfeiture of any or all Awards (or portions thereof);


 


(ii)         the
complete termination of the Plan and the cancellation of any or all Awards (or portions thereof) which have not been exercised,
have not vested, or remain subject to risks of forfeiture, as applicable, in each case as of the effective date of the Change of
Control;


 


(iii)        that
the entity succeeding the Company by reason of such Change of Control, or the parent of such entity, shall assume or continue any
or all Awards (or portions thereof) outstanding immediately prior to the Change of Control or substitute for any or all such Awards
(or portions thereof) a substantially equivalent award with respect to the securities of such successor entity, as determined in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations;


 


(iv)        that
Participants holding outstanding Awards shall become entitled to receive, with respect to each share of Common Stock subject to
such Award (whether vested or unvested, as determined by the Administrator pursuant to subsection (c)(i) hereof) as of the effective
date of any such Change of Control, cash in an amount equal to (1) for Participants holding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights,
the excess of the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock on the date immediately preceding the effective date of such Change of
Control over the exercise price per share of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, or (2) for Participants holding Awards other
than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock on the date immediately preceding the effective
date of such Change of Control.


 




    	20



    	 



    

 


The Administrator need not take the same
action with respect to all Awards (or portions thereof) or with respect to all Participants. In addition, the Administrator may
restrict the rights of or the applicability of this Section 15 to the extent necessary to comply with Section 16(b) of the Exchange
Act, the Internal Revenue Code or any other applicable law or regulation. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not
limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital
or business structure or to merge, exchange or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business
or assets.


 


SECTION 16.


NONTRANSFERABILITY


 


(a)          
In General. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or an Agreement, no Award shall be transferable by the Participant,
in whole or in part, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. If the Participant shall attempt any transfer
of any Award, such transfer shall be void and the Award shall terminate.


 


(b)          Nonqualified
Stock Options. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 16 to the contrary, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion,
permit the Participant to transfer any or all Nonqualified Stock Option to any member of the Participant’s “immediate
family” as such term is defined in Rule 16a-1(e) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision, or to one or more trusts
whose beneficiaries are members of such Participant’s “immediate family” or partnerships in which such family
members are the only partners; provided, however, that the Participant cannot receive any consideration for the transfer and such
transferred Nonqualified Stock Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such
Nonqualified Stock Option immediately prior to its transfer.


 


(c)          Beneficiary
Designation. Each Participant may, from time to time, name any beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be named contingently
or successively) to whom any benefit under the Plan is to be paid in case of such Participant’s death before receipt of any
or all of such benefit. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed
by the Administrator, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s
lifetime. In the absence of any such designation, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the
Participant’s estate.


 


SECTION 17.


INVESTMENT PURPOSE AND SECURITIES
COMPLIANCE


 


No shares of Common
Stock shall be issued pursuant to the Plan unless and until there has been compliance, in the opinion of Company’s counsel,
with all applicable legal requirements, including without limitation, those relating to securities laws and stock exchange listing
requirements. As a condition to the issuance of Common Stock to Participant, the Administrator may require Participant to (a) represent
that the shares of Common Stock are being acquired for investment and not resale and to make such other representations as the
Administrator shall deem necessary or appropriate to qualify the issuance of the shares as exempt from the Securities Act of 1933
and any other applicable securities laws, and (b) represent that Participant shall not dispose of the shares of Common Stock in
violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable securities laws.


 




    	21



    	 



    

 


As a further condition
to the grant of any Option or the issuance of Common Stock to a Participant, the Participant agrees to the following:


 


(a)          In
the event the Company advises the Participant that it plans an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock in compliance with
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Participant will execute any lock-up agreement the Company and the underwriter(s) deem
necessary or appropriate, in their sole discretion, in connection with such public offering.


 


(b)          In
the event the Company makes any public offering of its securities and determines in its sole discretion that it is necessary to
reduce the number of outstanding Awards so as to comply with any state’s securities or Blue Sky law limitations with respect
thereto, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the right (i) to accelerate the exercisability of any Award and the date
on which such Award must be exercised or remove the risks of forfeiture to which the Award is subject, provided that the Company
gives Participant prior written notice of such acceleration or removal, and (ii) to cancel any outstanding Awards (or portions
thereof) which Participant does not exercise prior to or contemporaneously with such public offering.


 


(c)          In
the event of a Change of Control, Participant will comply with Rule 145 of the Securities Act of 1933 and any other restrictions
imposed under other applicable legal or accounting principles if Participant is an “affiliate” (as defined in such
applicable legal and accounting principles) at the time of the Change of Control, and Participant will execute any documents necessary
to ensure compliance with such rules.


 


The Company reserves
the right to place a legend on any stock certificate (or a notation on any book entry shares permitted by the Administrator) issued
in connection with an Award pursuant to the Plan to assure compliance with this Section 17.


 


The Company shall not
be required to register or maintain the registration of the Plan, any Award, or any Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to
the Plan under the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable securities laws. If the Company is unable to obtain the authority
that the Company or its counsel deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall
not be liable for the failure to issue and sell Common Stock upon the exercise, vesting, or lapse of restrictions of forfeiture
of an Award unless and until such authority is obtained. A Participant shall not be eligible for the grant of an Award or the issuance
of Common Stock pursuant to an Award if such grant or issuance would violate any applicable securities law.

SECTION 18.


AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN


 


The Board may from
time to time, insofar as permitted by law, suspend or discontinue the Plan or revise or amend it in any respect; provided, however,
that no such suspension, termination, revision, or amendment, except as is authorized in Section 15, shall impair the terms and
conditions of any Award which is outstanding on the date of such suspension, termination, revision, or amendment to the material
detriment of the Participant without the consent of the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Section
15 of the Plan or to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the Board may not, without shareholder approval, revise
or amend the Plan to (i) materially increase the number of shares subject to the Plan, (ii) change the designation of Participants,
including the class of Employees, eligible to receive Awards, (iii) decrease the price at which Options or Stock Appreciation Rights
may be granted, (iv) cancel, regrant, repurchase for cash, or replace Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that have an exercise
price in excess of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, or amend the terms of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights
to reduce their exercise price, (v) materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan, or (vi) make any
modification that will cause Incentive Stock Options to fail to meet the requirements of Code Section 422.


 


To the extent applicable,
the Plan and all Agreements shall be interpreted to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and, if
applicable, to comply with Code Section 422, in each case including the regulations, notices, and other guidance of general applicability
issued thereunder. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Agreement to the contrary, the Board may amend the
Plan or Agreement to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with such requirements without the consent of the Participant.


 


SECTION 19.


RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS ASSOCIATED
WITH AWARDS 


 


(a)          No
Obligation to Exercise. The granting of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall impose no obligation upon the Participant
to exercise such Option or Stock Appreciation Right.


 


(b)          No
Employment or Other Service Rights. The granting of an Award hereunder shall not impose upon the Company or any Affiliate any
obligation to retain the Participant in its employ or service for any period.


 


(c)          Unfunded
Plan. Participants shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any particular assets of the Company or any
of its Affiliates by reason of the right to receive a benefit under the terms of the Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no
action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship
between the Company and any Participant, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other person. To the extent that any person
acquires a right to receive shares of Common Stock or payments from the Company or any of its Affiliates under the Plan, such right
shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be. All payments
to be made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be. In its sole discretion,
the Administrator may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to
deliver the shares of Common Stock or make payments in lieu of or with respect to Awards hereunder; provided, however, that the
existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the unfunded status of the Plan.

(d)          Arrangements
Upon Termination of Employment or Competitive Employment. At the time of grant, the Administrator may provide in connection
with any Award granted to a Participant under this Plan that the Common Stock received as a result of such grant shall be subject
to a repurchase right in favor of the Company, pursuant to which the Participant shall be required to offer to the Company upon
termination of employment for any reason any Common Stock that the Participant acquired under the Plan, with the price being the
then Fair Market Value of the Common Stock or, in the case of a termination for Cause (as defined in the applicable Award agreement),
an amount equal to the cash consideration paid for the Common Stock if lower than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, subject
to such other terms and conditions as the Administrator may specify at the time of grant. The Administrator may, at the time of
the grant of an Award under the Plan, provide the Company with the right to repurchase, or require the forfeiture of, Common Stock
acquired pursuant to the Plan by any Participant who, at any time within two years after termination of employment with the Company,
directly or indirectly competes with, or is employed by a competitor of, the Company.


 


SECTION 20.


MISCELLANEOUS


 


(a)          Issuance
of Shares. The Company is not required to issue or remove restrictions on shares of Common Stock granted pursuant to the Plan
until the Administrator determines that: (i) all conditions of the Award have been satisfied, (ii) all legal matters in connection
with the issuance have been satisfied, and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations
or agreements as the Administrator may consider appropriate, in its sole discretion, to satisfy the requirements of any applicable
law or regulation.


 


(b)          Choice
of Law. The law of the state of Delaware shall govern all questions concerning the construction, validity, and interpretation
of the Plan, without regard to that state’s conflict of laws rules.


 


(c)          Severability.
In the event that any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, such illegality or invalidity shall
not affect the remaining provisions of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision
had not been included.


 


(d)          No
Duty to Notify. The Company shall have no duty or obligation to any Participant to advise such Participant as to the time and
manner of exercising an Award or as to the pending termination or expiration of such Award. In addition, the Company has no duty
or obligation to minimize the tax consequences of an Award to the Participant.

SECTION 21.


AUTOMATIC GRANTS TO NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS


 


Under the Plan, each
Non-employee Director shall automatically be granted a Nonqualified Stock Option to purchase shares of Common Stock (a “Director
Option”) according to the following terms and conditions:


 


(a)          Initial
Grants of Director Options. Each person who is first elected or appointed to serve as a Non-employee Director after the effective
date of the Plan shall automatically be granted a Director Option on the date of his or her initial election or appointment to
the Board to purchase fifteen thousand (15,000) shares of Common Stock. All Director Options granted under this Section 11(a) shall
vest and become exercisable with respect to one-third (1/3) of the shares subject to such Director Option on the first, second
and third anniversary of the date of the grant of such Director Option, but only if the holder of the Director Option is then a
member of the Board.


 


(b)          Additional
Grants of Director Options. On the first business day following the annual meeting on which the national securities exchanges
are open, each Non-employee Director will automatically be granted an additional Director Option to purchase ten thousand (10,000)
shares of Common Stock, but only if such person is a Non-employee Director on such date and did not receive an initial grant pursuant
to Section 21(a) at such annual meeting. If no annual meeting is held in a given year, such Director Option shall be automatically
granted on August 1 of that year (or, if the national securities exchanges are not open on August 1, on the first business day
following August 1 on which the national securities exchanges are open). Such grant will satisfy the obligation to make an automatic
grant under this Section 21(b) for the year, even if an annual meeting is subsequently held between August 1 and the end of the
calendar year. All Director Options granted under this Section 21(b) shall vest and become exercisable as to the shares subject
to the Director Option ratably over eleven months from the date of grant of the Director Option, but only if the holder of the
Director Option is then a member of the Board.


 


(c)          Termination
of Director Options. All Director Options granted under this Section 21 shall expire ten (10) years after the date of grant.


 


(d)          Exercise
Price. The option price per share of Director Options granted under this
Section 21 shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the per share Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant of the
Director Option.


 


(e)          Terms
of Construction. Expect as otherwise set forth in this Section 21, all Director Options granted under this Section 21 shall
be governed by Section 10 hereof. For purposes of this Section 21 only, the term “Non-employee Director” shall mean
any Director who is not also an Employee of the Company.
