in 2006 and ending after the 2008 annual increase equal to the least of (i) 3% of the outstanding Shares on such date or (ii) an amount determined by the Board. The Shares may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock.

 -6- 








 
lower than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant shall be counted against the numerical limits of this Section 3 as two Shares for every one
Share subject thereto. To the extent that a Share that was subject to an Award that counted as two Shares against the Plan reserve pursuant to the preceding sentence is recycled back into the Plan under the next paragraph of this Section 3, the
Plan shall be credited with two Shares. 
 If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full or is
surrendered pursuant to an Exchange Program, or, with respect to Options, Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Restricted Stock Units, is forfeited to or repurchased by the Company, the unpurchased Shares (or for Awards other than Options and
SARs, the forfeited or repurchased shares) which were subject thereto shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). With respect to SARs, Shares actually issued pursuant to an SAR as well as the
Shares withheld to pay the exercise price shall cease to be available under the Plan. Shares that have actually been issued under the Plan under any Award shall not be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future distribution under
the Plan; provided, however, that if Shares of Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Restricted Stock Units are repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price or are forfeited to the Company, such Shares shall become available for
future grant under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an Option or the purchase price of Restricted Stock shall not become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. Shares used to satisfy tax withholding obligations shall
not become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than stock, such cash payment shall not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Any payout of
Dividend Equivalents, because they are payable only in cash, shall not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. Conversely, any forfeiture of Dividend Equivalents shall not increase the number of Shares available for
issuance under the Plan. 
 4. Administration of the Plan. 
 (a) Procedure. 
 (i) Multiple
Administrative Bodies. The Board or different Committees with respect to different groups of Service Providers may administer the Plan. 
 (ii) Section 162(m). To the extent that the Administrator determines it to be desirable to qualify Awards granted hereunder as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the
Plan shall be administered by a Committee of two or more “outside directors” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. 
 (iii) Rule 16b-3. To the extent desirable to qualify transactions hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption under Rule 16b-3.

 (iv) Other Administration. Other than as provided above, the Plan shall be administered by (a) the Board or (b) a
Committee, which committee shall be constituted to satisfy Applicable Laws. 
  

 -7- 








 (b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, and in the case of a
Committee, subject to the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion: 
 (i) to determine the Fair Market Value; 
 (ii) to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be granted hereunder;

 (iii) to determine the number of shares of Common Stock or equivalent units to be covered by each Award granted hereunder; 
 (iv) to approve forms of Award Agreement for use under the Plan; 
 (v) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the date of grant,
the time or times when Awards may be exercised (or are earned) (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the Shares relating
thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine; 
 (vi) to institute an Exchange
Program; however, the Administrator may not institute an Exchange Program without shareholder approval. 
 (vii) to construe and interpret
the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan; 
 (viii) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of satisfying applicable foreign laws and/or qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws; 
 (ix) to modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan), including the discretionary authority to extend the post-termination
exercisability period of Options and SARs longer than is otherwise provided for in the Plan; 
 (x) to allow Participants to satisfy
withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares or cash to be issued upon exercise of an Option, SAR or right to purchase Restricted Stock or upon vesting or payout of another Award, that number of Shares or cash
having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by a
Participant to have Shares or cash withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable; 
 (xi) to determine whether Awards will be adjusted for Dividend Equivalents; 
  

 -8- 








 (xii) to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the
grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator; and 
 (xiii) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for
administering the Plan. 
 (c) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions, determinations and
interpretations shall be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards. 
 5. Eligibility. Awards may be
granted to Service Providers; provided, however, that Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. 
 6. No Employment
Rights. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant’s relationship as an Employee or other Service Provider with the Company or its Subsidiaries, nor shall they
interfere in any way with the Participant’s right or the Company’s or Subsidiary’s right, as the case may be, to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause. 
 7. Code Section 162(m) Provisions. 
 (a) Option and SAR Annual Share Limit. No Participant shall be granted, in any Fiscal Year, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights to purchase more than 500,000 Shares; provided, however, that such limit shall be 250,000 Shares in the
Participant’s first Fiscal Year of Company service. 
 (b) Restricted Stock, Performance Share and Restricted Stock Unit Annual
Limit. No Participant shall be granted, in any Fiscal Year, more than 250,000 Shares in the aggregate of the following: (i) Restricted Stock, (ii) Performance Shares, or (iii) Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that such
limit shall be 125,000 Shares in the Participant’s first Fiscal Year of Company service. 
 (c) Section 162(m) Performance
Restrictions. For purposes of qualifying grants of Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Restricted Stock Units as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator, in its discretion, may set
restrictions based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Administrator on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Restricted Stock Units to qualify as
“performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Restricted Stock, Performance Shares or Restricted Stock Units which are intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Administrator shall
follow any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the Award under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals). 
 (d) Changes in Capitalization. The numerical limitations in Sections 7(a) and (b) shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with
any change in the Company’s capitalization as described in Section 17(a). 
  

 -9- 








 (e) If an Award is cancelled in the same Fiscal Year in which it was granted (other than in connection
with a transaction described in Section 17 of the Plan), the cancelled Award will be counted against the limits set forth in subsections (a) and (b) above. For this purpose, if the exercise price of an Option is reduced, the
transaction will be treated as a cancellation of the Option and the grant of a new Option. 
 8. Term of Plan. Subject to
Section 23 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It will continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless terminated earlier under Section 19 of the Plan. 
 9. Stock Options. 
 (a) Type of
Option. Each Option shall be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, not withstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with
respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory
Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 9(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to
such Shares is granted. 
 (b) Term. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock
Option, the term shall be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock
Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years
from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. 
 (c) Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

 (i) Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option will be determined
by the Administrator, subject to the following: 
 (1) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Employee who, at the time the
Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 
 (2) In the case of all other Options, the per Share exercise price will be no less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 
  

 -10- 








 (3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than
100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction. 
 (ii) Waiting Period
and Exercise Dates. At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator shall fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and shall determine any conditions which must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. 
 (iii) Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the
method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Subject to Applicable Laws, such consideration may consist entirely of: 
 (1) cash; 
 (2) check; 
 (3) promissory note; 
 (4) other Shares
which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised and which meet the conditions established by the Administrator to avoid adverse accounting
consequences (as determined by the Administrator); 
 (5) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise program
implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; 
 (6) a reduction in the amount of any Company liability to the Participant,
including any liability attributable to the Participant’s participation in any Company-sponsored deferred compensation program or arrangement; 
 (7) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment; 
 (8) such other consideration and method of
payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws; or 
 (9) any combination of the foregoing methods of
payment. 
 10. Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 (a) Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a SAR may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole
discretion. 
  

 -11- 








 (b) Number of Shares. The Administrator will have complete discretion to determine the number of
SARs granted to any Service Provider, subject to the limits set forth in Section 7. 
 (c) Exercise Price and Other Terms. The
Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, will have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of SARs granted under the Plan. 
 (d) Exercise of SARs. SARs will be exercisable on such terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. 
 (e) SAR Agreement. Each SAR grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the exercise price, the term of the SAR, the
conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. 
 (f)
Expiration of SARs. An SAR granted under the Plan will expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that no SAR will have a term of more than ten
(10) years from the date of grant. 
 (g) Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant will be entitled to
receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying: 
 (i) The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on
the date of exercise over the exercise price; times 
 (ii) The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. 
 (h) Form of Payment. The Company’s obligation arising upon the exercise of a SAR may be paid in Common Stock or in cash, or in any
combination of Common Stock and cash, as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine. Shares issued upon the exercise of a SAR shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise. 
 11. Exercise of Option or SAR. 
 (a)
Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option or SAR granted hereunder shall be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the
Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 An Option or SAR shall be deemed exercised when the Company
receives: (i) written or electronic notice of exercise (in accordance with the terms of the Option or SAR) from the person entitled to exercise the Option or SAR, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is
exercised. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option or SAR shall be issued in the name of the
Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer 

  

 -12- 








 
agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with respect to the Awarded Stock,
notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue or cause to be issued (and which issuance may be in electronic entry form) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other
right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 17 of the Plan. 
 Exercising
an Option in any manner shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. Exercise of a SAR in any manner shall, to the
extent the SAR is exercised, result in a decrease in the number of Shares which thereafter shall be available for purposes of the Plan, and the SAR shall cease to be exercisable to the extent it has been exercised. 
 (b) Termination of Continuous Status as a Service Provider. Upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous Status as a Service Provider
(other than termination by reason of the Participant’s death or Disability), the Participant may exercise his or her Option or SAR within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Award is vested on the
date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Award as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months
following the Participant’s termination. If the Option or SAR is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option or SAR shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option or SAR shall revert to the Plan. Unless otherwise
provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option or SAR, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option or SAR will revert to the Plan on the date one (1) month
following the Participant’s termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall an Option or SAR be exercisable after the expiration of the term of the Award as provided in the Award Agreement. 
 (c) Disability of Participant. If a Participant terminates his or her Continuous Status as a Service Provider as a result of his or her
Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option or SAR within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option or SAR is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of
the term of such Option or SAR as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option or SAR shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Participant’s termination. If,
after termination, the Participant does not exercise his or her Option or SAR within the time specified herein, the Option or SAR shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option or SAR shall revert to the Plan. Unless otherwise provided by
the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option or SAR, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option or SAR will revert to the Plan on the date one (1) month following
the Participant’s termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall an Option or SAR be exercisable after the expiration of the term of the Award as provided in the Award Agreement. 
 (d) Death of Participant. If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the Option or SAR may be exercised following the Participant’s
death within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event may the option be exercised later than the expiration of the 

  

 -13- 








 
term of such Option or SAR as set forth in the Award Agreement), by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been
designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate
or by the person(s) to whom the Option or SAR is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option or SAR shall
remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following Participant’s death. If the Option or SAR is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option or SAR shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option or SAR shall
revert to the Plan. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option or SAR, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option or SAR will revert to the
Plan on the date one (1) month following the Participant’s termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall an Option or SAR be exercisable after the expiration of the term of the Award as provided in the Award Agreement.

 12. Restricted Stock. 
 (a) Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including the limits set forth in Section 7), the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service
Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. 
 (b) Restricted Stock Agreement. Each Award
of Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the Period of Restriction, the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. Unless the
Administrator determines otherwise, Shares of Restricted Stock will be held by the Company as escrow agent until the restrictions on such Shares have lapsed. 
 (c) Transferability. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will
or by the laws of descent or distribution until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction. 
 (d) Other Restrictions. The
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may impose such other restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock as it may deem advisable or appropriate. 
 (i) General Restrictions. The Administrator may set restrictions based upon the achievement of Company-wide, departmental, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service),
applicable federal or state securities laws, or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its discretion. 
 (ii)
Section 162(m) Performance Restrictions. For purposes of qualifying grants of Restricted Stock as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee, in its discretion, may set restrictions
based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Committee on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Restricted Stock to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under 

  

 -14- 








 
Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Restricted Stock which is intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall follow
any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the Restricted Stock under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals). 
 (e) Removal of Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 12, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock
grant made under the Plan will be released from escrow as soon as practicable after the last day of the Period of Restriction. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed.

 (f) Voting Rights. During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may
exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise. 
 (g) Dividends and Other
Distributions. During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares unless otherwise provided in the Award
Agreement. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. 
 (h) Return of Restricted Stock to Company. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock for which restrictions have not
lapsed will revert to the Company and again will become available for grant under the Plan. 
 13. Restricted Stock Units. 

(a) Grant. Restricted Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time as determined by the Administrator. Each Restricted Stock
Unit grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine, including all terms, conditions, and restrictions related to the grant, the number
of Restricted Stock Units (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7) and the form of payout, which, subject to Section 13(d), may be left to the discretion of the Administrator. 
 (b) Vesting Criteria and Other Terms. The Administrator shall set vesting criteria in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which the
criteria are met, will determine the number of Restricted Stock Units that will be paid out to the Participant. 
 (i) General
Restrictions. The Administrator may set vesting criteria based upon the achievement of Company-wide, departmental, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service), applicable federal or state
securities laws, or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its discretion. 
 (ii) Section 162(m) Performance
Restrictions. For purposes of qualifying grants of Restricted Stock Units as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee, in its discretion, may set performance objectives based upon the
achievement 

  

 -15- 








 
of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Committee on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Restricted Stock Units to
qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Restricted Stock Units that are intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall follow any procedures determined
by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the Restricted Stock Units under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals). 
 (c) Earning Restricted Stock Units. Upon meeting the applicable vesting criteria, the Participant shall be entitled to receive a payout as
specified in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any vesting criteria that must be met to receive a payout.

 (d) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned Restricted Stock Units shall be made as soon as practicable after the date(s) set
forth in the Award Agreement. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination thereof. Shares represented by Restricted Stock Units that are fully paid in cash again shall be
available for grant under the Plan. 
 (e) Cancellation. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned Restricted Stock
Units shall be forfeited to the Company. 
 14. Performance Shares. 
 (a) Grant of Performance Shares. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Performance Shares may be granted to Service Providers at any
time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. Subject to Section 7 hereof, the Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the number of Shares subject to a Performance Share Award granted to any
Service Provider. 
 (b) Value of Performance Shares. Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value
of a Share on the date of grant. 
 (c) Performance Objectives and Other Terms. The Administrator will set performance objectives in
its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number or value of Performance Shares that will be paid out to the Service Providers. Each Award of Performance Shares will be evidenced by an Award Agreement
that will specify the performance period during which the applicable objectives must be met, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. 
 (i) General Restrictions. The Administrator may set performance objective based upon the achievement of Company-wide, departmental, business
unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment or service), applicable federal or state securities laws, or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its discretion. 
  

 -16- 








 (ii) Section 162(m) Performance Restrictions. For purposes of qualifying grants of
Performance Shares as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee, in its discretion, may set performance objectives based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be
set by the Committee on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Performance Shares to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Performance Shares that are intended to
qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall follow any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure qualification of the Performance Shares under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g.,
in determining the Performance Goals). 
 (d) Earning of Performance Shares. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the
holder of Performance Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance
objectives have been achieved. After the grant of a Performance Share, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any performance objectives for such Performance Share. 
 (e) Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Shares. Payment of earned Performance Shares will be made as soon as practicable after the
expiration of the applicable Performance Period. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance
Shares at the close of the applicable performance period) or in a combination thereof. 
 (f) Cancellation of Performance Shares. On
the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned or unvested Performance Shares will be forfeited to the Company, and again will be available for grant under the Plan. 
 15. Leaves of Absence. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise or except as otherwise required by Applicable Laws, vesting of Awards granted
hereunder shall cease commencing on the first day of any unpaid leave of absence and shall only recommence upon return to active service. 
 16. Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator or as otherwise provided in the Plan, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution, and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award shall contain such additional terms and conditions as
the Administrator deems appropriate. 
 17. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Change in Control.

 (a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common
Stock covered by each outstanding Award and the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but 

  

 -17- 








 
as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award, as well as the price per
share, if any, of Common Stock covered by each such outstanding Award and the 162(m) fiscal year share issuance limits under Sections 7(a) and (b) hereof shall, shall be proportionately adjusted for any dividend or other distribution
(whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares or other
securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares should the Committee (in its sole discretion) determine such an adjustment to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the
benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. Such adjustment shall be made by the Board or the Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided
herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common
Stock subject to an Award. 
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company,
all outstanding Awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise his
or her Option, SAR or right to purchase Restricted Stock until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Awarded Stock covered thereby, including Shares as to which the Award would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the
Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option or forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall lapse 100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%, provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time
and in the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised (with respect to Options, SARs and right to purchase Restricted Stock) or vested (with respect to other Awards), an Award will terminate immediately prior to the
consummation of such proposed action. 
 (c) Merger or Change in Control. In the event of a merger or Change in Control, each
outstanding Award shall be assumed or an equivalent award substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Award, the
Participant shall (i) fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option, SAR or right to purchase Restricted Stock as to all of the Awarded Stock, including Shares as to which it would not otherwise be vested or exercisable, and
(ii) fully earn and receive a payout with respect to other Awards. If an Award is not assumed or substituted for in the event of a merger or Change in Control, the Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing or electronically that
(i) the Option, SAR or right to purchase Restricted Stock shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and (ii) all outstanding Options, SARs and rights to purchase Restricted
Stock shall terminate upon the expiration of such period and (iii) all other outstanding Awards shall be paid out immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Award shall be considered assumed
if, following the merger or Change in Control, the assumed Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Award immediately prior to the merger or Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock,
cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or Change in Control by holders of Common Stock for each 

  

 -18- 








 
Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders
of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the
successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise (or payout or vesting, as applicable) of the Award, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or
its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or Change in Control. 
 18. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of
the determination shall be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 
 19. Amendment and
Termination of the Plan. 
 (a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

 (b) Shareholder Approval. The Plan will be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months
after the date the Plan is adopted. Such shareholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws. The Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable
to comply with Applicable Laws. 
 (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the
Plan shall impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing (or electronic format) and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of
the Plan shall not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 
 20. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 
 (a) Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise or payout, as applicable, of an Award unless the exercise or payout, as applicable, of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply
with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. 
 (b)
Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or payout, as applicable, of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Option, SAR or right to purchase Restricted Stock, or in the case of another Award, the
person receiving the payout, to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the
Company, such a representation is required. 
  

 -19- 








 21. Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any
regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or
sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 
 22. Severability. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision of the Plan or an Award to the contrary, if any one or more of the provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan or the Awards shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be modified so as to make
it valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) of the Plan or Award, as applicable, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 23. Shareholder Approval. Subject to Section 19 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It will continue
in effect for a term of five (5) years from the date of approval by the shareholders of the Company unless terminated earlier under Section 19 of the Plan. 
 24. Non-U.S. Employees. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, with respect to any employee who is resident outside of the United States, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, amend the
terms of the Plan in order to conform such terms to the requirements of local law or to meet the objectives of the Plan. The Administrator may, where appropriate, establish one or more sub-plans for this purpose.

 EXHIBIT A 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK OPTION GRANT 
 1. Grant of Option. The Administrator hereby
grants to the Participant named in the Notice of Grant (the “Participant”) an option (the “Option”) to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of
Grant (the “Exercise Price”), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the
terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 
 If designated in the Notice
of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code. Further, if for any reason this Option (or portion thereof) shall not qualify as an
ISO, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a NSO granted under the Plan. In no event shall the Administrator, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or any of their respective employees
or directors have any liability to Participant (or any other person) due to the failure of the Option to qualify for any reason as an ISO. 
 2. Exercise of Option. 
 (a) Right to Exercise. This Option will be exercisable during its term in accordance with the
Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement. 
 (b)
Administrator Discretion to Accelerate. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Shares subject to the Option at any time, subject to the terms of
the Plan. If so accelerated, such Shares subject to the Option will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator. 
 (c) Method of Exercise. This Option will be exercisable in a manner and pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may determine, which will reflect the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares with respect to
which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company. The Exercise Notice will be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all
Exercised Shares (as such Exercise Price may be adjusted in accordance with the terms of Section 17 of the Plan), together with any applicable tax withholding. This Option will be deemed to be exercised upon the procedures designated by the
Administrator and upon receipt by the Company of the aggregate Exercise Price, together with any applicable tax withholding. 
 No Shares
will be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless such issuance and such exercise comply with Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares will be considered transferred to the Participant on the date on
which the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares. 
  

 - 1 - 








 3. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price will be by any of the following, or
a combination thereof, at the election of Participant: 
 (a) cash; 
 (b) check; 
 (c) consideration received by
the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by the Company in connection with the Plan; or 
 (d) surrender of other Shares
which (i) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised Shares, and (ii) must be owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, if accepting such
Shares, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, shall not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company. 
 4. Grant
is Not Transferable. This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Participant only by Participant. The terms of the Plan and this
Option Agreement will be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Participant. 
 5. Term of
Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant, and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement. 
 6. Tax Obligations. 
 (a)
Withholding of Taxes. The Company will assess its requirements regarding tax, social insurance and any other payroll tax withholding and reporting in connection with this Option, including the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option or sale
of Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of this option (“tax-related items”). These requirements may change from time to time as laws or interpretations change. 
 In the event the Company determines that it and/or a Parent or Subsidiary must withhold any tax-related items as a result of Participant’s
participation in the Plan, the Participant agrees as a condition of the grant of this Option to make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy all withholding requirements. The Company and/or a Parent or Subsidiary may, in its
discretion, withhold all applicable tax-related items from any wages or cash compensation due to Participant. The Company (or the employing Parent or Subsidiary) may instead, in its discretion, withhold a portion of the Shares that have an aggregate
market value sufficient to pay the minimum tax-related items required to be withheld by the Company or the employing Parent or Subsidiary with respect to the Shares. No fractional Shares will be withheld or issued pursuant to the issuance of Shares;
any additional withholding necessary for this reason will be done by the Company through Participant’s paycheck. 
  

 - 2 - 








 In the event the withholding requirements are not satisfied through the withholding of Shares or, through
Participant’s paycheck, as indicated above), no Shares will be issued to Participant (or his or her estate) unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) have been made by Participant with respect to the
payment of any income and other tax-related items which the Company determines must be withheld or collected with respect to the exercise of the option. Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse
to deliver the Shares if such withholding amounts are not delivered at the time of exercise. All income and other tax-related items related to the Option and any Shares delivered in connection with the exercise of the Option are the sole
responsibility of the Participant. 
 (b) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option granted to Participant
herein is an ISO, and if Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (i) the date two (2) years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one (1) year after
the date of exercise, Participant will immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition. Participant agrees that Participant may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Participant.

 (c) Code Section 409A. Under Code Section 409A, an Option that vests after December 31, 2004 that was granted with a
per Share exercise price that is determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant (a “Discount Option”) may be considered “deferred
compensation.” A Discount Option may result in (i) income recognition by Participant prior to the exercise of the Option, (ii) an additional twenty percent (20%) tax, and (iii) potential penalty and interest charges.
Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot and has not guaranteed that the IRS will agree that the per Share exercise price of this Option equals or exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant in a later examination.
Participant agrees that if the IRS determines that the Option was granted with a per Share exercise price that was less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, Participant will be solely responsible for Participant’s costs
related to such a determination. 
 7. Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Option
Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator or, if no such
beneficiary has been designated or survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such beneficiary, administrator or executor must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as
transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer. 
 8. Rights as Stockholder. Until the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly
authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Optioned Stock. 
 9. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Option Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, this Option Agreement will continue in
full force and effect. 
  

 - 3 - 








 10. Administrator Authority. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this
Option Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any
Shares have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon the Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator

 EXHIBIT A 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 
 1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the
Participant named in the Notice of Grant (the “Participant”) under the Plan the number of Restricted Stock Units indicated in the Notice of Grant, subject to all of the terms and conditions in this Agreement and the Plan, which is
incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 19(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.

 2. Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the date it vests (or at
such later time indicated in this Agreement). Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Sections 3,4 or Section 17 of the Plan, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted
Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Any Restricted Stock Units
that vest in accordance with this Agreement will be paid to Participant (or in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her properly designated beneficiary or estate) in whole Shares, subject to Participant satisfying any applicable tax
withholding obligations as set forth in Section 6. Subject to the provisions of Section 4, such vested Restricted Stock Units shall be paid in Shares as soon as practicable after vesting, but in each such case no later than the date that
is two-and-one-half months from the end of the Company’s tax year that includes the vesting date. 
 3. Vesting Schedule. Except
as provided in Sections 4 and 11 and Section 17 of the Plan, and subject to Section 5, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Restricted
Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in Participant in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider
from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. 
 4. Administrator Discretion. The Administrator, in its discretion, may
accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as
of the date specified by the Administrator. 
 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the
balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a 

  

 - 3 - 








 
“separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if
(x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition
of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made
until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted
Stock Units will be paid in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death. It is the intent of this Agreement to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units
provided under this Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 409A”
means Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any proposed, temporary or final Treasury Regulations and Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time. 
 5. Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the balance of the
Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of the time of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider for any or no reason will be forfeited and automatically transferred to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company and
Participant’s right to acquire any Shares hereunder will immediately terminate. 
 6. Death of Participant. Any distribution or
delivery to be made to Participant under this Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable
to the Administrator or, if no such beneficiary has been designated or survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status
as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer. 
 7. Withholding of Taxes. When Shares are issued as payment for vested Restricted Stock Units, the Company (or the employing Parent or Subsidiary)
will withhold a portion of the Shares that have an aggregate market value sufficient to pay the minimum federal, state and local income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company (or the employing Parent or
Subsidiary) with respect to the Shares, unless the Company, in its sole discretion, requires the Participant to make alternate arrangements satisfactory to the Company for such withholdings in advance of the arising of any withholding obligations.
The number of Shares withheld pursuant to the prior sentence will be rounded up to the nearest whole Share, with no refund provided for any value of the Shares withheld in excess of the tax obligation as a result of such rounding, all pursuant to
such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time. 
  

 - 4 - 








 Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no Shares will be issued unless and until all
income, employment and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld or collected with respect to such Shares have been withheld. In addition and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company (or the employing Parent or Subsidiary)
has the right to retain without notice from salary or other amounts payable to the Participant, cash having a sufficient value to satisfy any tax withholding obligations that the Company determines cannot be satisfied through the withholding of
otherwise deliverable Shares. All income and other taxes related to the Restricted Stock Units and any Shares delivered in payment thereof are the sole responsibility of the Participant. 
 8. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a
stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents
or registrars, and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting
such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. 
 9. No Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT
ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING
PARTICIPANT) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE
VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE
RIGHT OF THE COMPANY (OR THE PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY EMPLOYING OR RETAINING PARTICIPANT) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 
 10. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be addressed to the Company, in care of its
Secretary, at 1550 Buckeye Drive, Milpitas, CA 95035 USA, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.

 11. Changes in Restricted Stock Units. In the event that as a result of a stock or extraordinary
cash dividend, stock split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization, combination of Shares or the adjustment in capital stock of the Company or otherwise, or as a result of a merger, consolidation, spin-off or other corporate transaction or
event, the Restricted Stock Units will be increased, reduced or otherwise affected, and by virtue of any such event the Participant will in his or her capacity as owner of unvested Restricted Stock Units which have been awarded to him or her (the
“Prior Restricted Stock Units”) be entitled to new or additional or different shares of stock, cash or other securities or property (other than rights or warrants to purchase securities); such new or additional or different shares, cash or
securities or property will thereupon be considered to be unvested Restricted Stock Units and will be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions that were applicable to the Prior Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan.
If the Participant receives rights or warrants with respect to any Prior Restricted Stock Units, such rights or warrants may be held or exercised by the Participant, provided that until such exercise any such rights or warrants and after such
exercise any shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants will be considered to be unvested Restricted Stock Units and will be subject to all of the conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Prior
Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the Plan and this Agreement. The Administrator in its absolute discretion at any time may accelerate the vesting of all or any portion of such new or additional shares of stock, cash or securities, rights or
warrants to purchase securities or shares or other securities acquired by the exercise of such rights or warrants; provided, however, that the payment of such new or additional awards shall be made at the same time or times as if such awards had
vested in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth on the first page of this Agreement (whether or not the Participant remains employed by the Company or by one of its Affiliates as of such date(s)). 
 12. Grant is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in Section 6, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby
will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge,
hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will
become null and void. 
 13. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this
Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto. 
 14. Restrictions on Sale of Securities. The Shares issued as payment for vested Restricted Stock Units under this Agreement will be registered under U.S. federal securities laws and will be freely tradable upon
receipt. However, Participant’s subsequent sale of the Shares may be subject to any market blackout-period that may be imposed by the Company and must comply with the Company’s insider trading policies, and any other applicable securities
laws.

certificate or certificates for Shares hereunder prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions: (a) the admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; (b) the completion of

absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; (c) the obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any U.S. state or federal governmental agency, which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable; and (d) the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of vesting of the Restricted Stock Units as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience. 
 15. Plan Governs. This Agreement is subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one or more provisions of
this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern. Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning set forth in the Plan. 
 16. Administrator Authority. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt such rules for the
administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Restricted Stock Units have vested). All actions
taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any
action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement. 
 17. Electronic Delivery. The
Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Restricted Stock Units awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or request Participant’s
consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the
