Exhibit 10.1


 





TRAVELCENTERS OF AMERICA INC.

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN


 


Effective May 21, 2020


 


	1.	PURPOSE



 


The purpose of this TravelCenters of America Inc. Second Amended
 & Restated 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is to encourage employees, officers, directors and other
individuals (whether or not employees) who render services to TravelCenters of America Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”),
or its affiliates to continue their efforts for and association with the Company or its affiliates by providing opportunities for
them to participate in the ownership of the Company and in its future growth through the granting of options to acquire shares
of the Company's common stock (“Options”), grants of shares of the Company’s common stock some of which may be
subject to restrictions (“Restricted Stock”) and other rights, (including stock appreciation rights (“SARs”))
to receive compensation in amounts determined by the value of the Company's common stock (“Other Rights”). The term
 “Subsidiary” as used in the Plan means a corporation or other business entity of which the Company owns, directly or
indirectly through an unbroken chain of ownership, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes
of stock, in the case of a corporation, or fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined interests by value, in the case of
any other type of business entity. The Plan is an amendment and restatement of the predecessor TravelCenters of America Inc. Amended
 & Restated 2016 Equity Compensation Plan, which predecessor amendment and restatement was effected in order to reflect the
conversion of TravelCenters of America LLC to TravelCenters of America Inc. under state law and the 1:5 reverse stock split effected
in connection with that conversion on August 1, 2019.


 


	2.	ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN



 


The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee
of the Company's Board of Directors or such other committee of the Board of Directors as the Board of Directors may designate (the
 “Independent Administrative Committee”) except in instances where it is necessary or advisable (including to comply
with applicable law or regulation) to provide for administration by the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”)
itself. The Independent Administrative Committee shall from time to time determine to whom awards shall be granted under the Plan,
whether Options granted shall be incentive stock options (“ISOs”) or nonqualified stock options (“NSOs”),
the terms of the Options (including vesting provisions) and the number of shares of Common Stock (as hereinafter defined) that
may be granted under Options, and the terms and number of Restricted Stock or Other Rights. The Independent Administrative Committee
shall report to the Board the names of individuals to whom Options, shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights are to be granted,
the number of shares of Common Stock covered and the terms and conditions of each grant. In instances where the Board is administering
the Plan, references in the Plan to the Independent Administrative Committee shall be deemed to refer to the Board.


 


The Independent Administrative Committee shall have the authority
to adopt, amend and rescind such rules and regulations as, in its opinion, may be advisable in the administration of the Plan,
which shall include, without limitation, the discretion to impose holding periods on shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to
awards granted hereunder. All questions of interpretation and application of the Plan or such rules and regulations and of awards
granted hereunder shall be subject to the discretionary determination of the Independent Administrative Committee, which shall
be final and binding. The Plan shall be administered in such a manner as to permit those Options granted hereunder and specially
designated under Section 5 hereof as ISOs to qualify as incentive stock options for purposes of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).


 


For so long as Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended from time to time (the “Exchange Act”), is applicable to the Company, each member of the
Independent Administrative Committee shall be a “non-employee director” or the equivalent within the meaning of Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act and shall meet such other requirements as the Board may determine to be necessary or appropriate.


 


With respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange
Act (“Insiders”), transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3
or its successor under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Independent Administrative Committee
fails to so comply, it shall be deemed to be modified so as to be in compliance with such Rule, or, if such modification is not
possible, it shall be deemed to be null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Independent Administrative
Committee.


 






     


     


    

 


	3.	STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN



 


The total number of shares of common stock of the Company that
may be subject to Options, Restricted Stock and Other Rights under the Plan shall be 1,285,000 shares of the Company's common stock,
par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), from authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock. The maximum number
of shares of Common Stock subject to Options that may be granted to any Optionee in the aggregate in any calendar year shall not
exceed 100,000 shares. The number of shares of Common Stock stated in this Section 3 shall be subject to adjustment in accordance
with the provisions of Section 11. Shares of Restricted Stock that fail to vest, shares of Common Stock subject to an Option that
is not fully exercised prior to its expiration or other termination and shares of Common Stock subject to Other Rights that are
not delivered pursuant to such award shall again become available for grant under the terms of the Plan. The shares of Common Stock
tendered for payment of the exercise price of an Option or satisfaction of tax withholding obligations and the shares of Common
Stock subject to a SAR which are not delivered upon the full exercise of the SAR will not again become available for grant under
the Plan. In the event that the Company uses the proceeds from exercises of Options under the Plan to repurchase shares of Common
Stock in the market, any such shares of Common Stock so repurchased shall not increase the number of shares of Common Stock available
for grant under the Plan.


 


	4.	ELIGIBILITY



 


The individuals who shall be eligible to receive grants of Options,
Restricted Stock and Other Rights under the Plan shall be employees, officers, directors and other individuals who render services
in connection with the management, operation or development of the Company or a Subsidiary and who have contributed or may be expected
to contribute to the success of the Company or a Subsidiary. ISOs shall not be granted to any individual who is not an employee
of the Company or a Subsidiary that is a corporation. The term “Optionee,” as used in the Plan, refers to any individual
to whom an Option has been granted.


 


	5.	TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS



 


Every Option shall be evidenced by a written
Stock Option Agreement in such form as the Independent Administrative Committee shall approve from time to time, specifying the
number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased pursuant to the Option, the time or times at which the Option shall become
exercisable in whole or in part, whether the Option is intended to be an ISO or an NSO and such other terms and conditions as the
Independent Administrative Committee shall approve, and containing or incorporating by reference the following terms and conditions.


 


		(a)	DURATION. Each Option shall expire no more than ten years from its date of grant; provided, however, that no
ISO granted to an employee who owns (directly or under the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) shares of the
Company’s stock possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company
or any Subsidiary shall expire not later than five years from its date of grant.



 


		(b)	EXERCISE PRICE. The exercise price of each Option shall be specified by the Independent Administrative Committee in its discretion;
provided, however, that the exercise price shall be at least 100 percent of the Fair Market Value (as hereinafter
defined) of the Common Stock on the date on which the Independent Administrative Committee awards the Option, which shall be considered
the date of grant of the Option for purposes of fixing the exercise price; and provided, further, that the exercise
price with respect to an ISO granted to an employee who at the time of grant owns (directly or under the attribution rules of Section 424(d)
of the Code) stock representing more than ten percent of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary
shall be at least 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of the stock on the date of grant of the ISO. For purposes of the Plan,
except as may be otherwise explicitly provided in the Plan or in any Stock Option Agreement, the “Fair Market Value”
of a share of Common Stock at any particular date shall be determined according to the following rules: (i) if the shares
of Common Stock are not at the time listed or admitted to trading on a stock exchange, the Fair Market Value shall be the closing
price of a share of Common Stock on the date in question in the over-the-counter market, as such price is reported in a publication
of general circulation selected by the Board and regularly reporting the price of the Common Stock in such market, including any
market that is outside of the United States; provided, however, that if the price of the Common Stock is not so reported,
the Fair Market Value shall be determined in good faith by the Board, which may take into consideration (1) the price paid
for Common Stock in the most recent trade of a substantial number of shares known to the Board to have occurred at arm's length
between willing and knowledgeable investors, (2) an appraisal by an independent party or (3) any other method of valuation
undertaken in good faith by the Board, or some or all of the above as the Board shall in its discretion
elect; or (ii) if the shares of Common Stock are at the time listed or admitted to trading on any stock exchange, including
any market that is outside of the United States, then the Fair Market Value shall be the closing sale price of the Common Stock
on the date in question on the principal exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are then listed or admitted to trading. If
no reported sale of Common Stock takes place on the date in question on the principal exchange, then the most recent previous reported
closing sale price (or, in the Board's discretion, the reported closing asked price) of the Common Stock on such date on the principal
exchange shall be determinative of Fair Market Value.



 






    2


     


    

 


		(c)	METHOD OF EXERCISE. To the extent that it has become exercisable under the terms of the Stock Option Agreement, an Option may
be exercised from time to time by notice acceptable to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or his delegate, stating the
number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised and accompanied by payment of the exercise
price in cash or check payable to the Company or, if the Stock Option Agreement so provides, other payment or deemed payment described
in this Section 5(c). Such notice shall be delivered in person to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or his delegate,
or shall be sent by registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, or his delegate,
in which case delivery shall be deemed made on the date such notice is deposited in the mail.



 


Alternatively, payment of the exercise price
may be made:


 


		(i)	In whole or in part in shares of Common Stock already owned by the Optionee or to be received upon exercise of the Option;
provided, however, that such shares of Common Stock are fully vested and free of all liens, claims and encumbrances
of any kind; and provided, further, that the Optionee may not make payment in shares of Common Stock that he acquired
upon the earlier exercise of any ISO (or other “incentive stock option”), unless he has held the shares of Common
Stock for at least two years after the date the ISO was granted and at least one year after the date the ISO was exercised. If
payment is made in whole or in part in shares of Common Stock, then the Optionee shall deliver to the Company stock certificates
or other evidence of legal and beneficial ownership registered in his name representing a number of shares of Common Stock legally
and beneficially owned by him, fully vested and free of all liens, claims and encumbrances of every kind and having a Fair Market
Value on the date of delivery that is not greater than the exercise price, such stock certificates or other evidence of legal and
beneficial ownership to be duly endorsed, or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed, by the record holder of the shares of Common
Stock being delivered. If the exercise price exceeds the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock so delivered, the Optionee
shall also deliver cash or a check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to the amount of that excess or, if the
Stock Option Agreement so provides, his promissory note as described in paragraph (2) of this Section 5(c); or



 


		(ii)	By payment of the exercise price in whole or in part by delivery of the Optionee's recourse promissory note, in a form specified
by the Company, secured by the shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Option and such other security as the Independent
Administrative Committee may require; provided that this method of payment of the exercise price shall not be available to the
extent that such method of exercise is prohibited by Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (generally prohibiting public
companies from making loans to or extending credit to directors and executive officers).



 


At the time specified in an Optionee's notice
of exercise, the Company shall, without issue or transfer tax to the Optionee, deliver to the Optionee at the main office of the
Company, or such other place as shall be mutually acceptable, a certificate for the shares of Common Stock or other evidence of
legal and beneficial ownership as to which such Optionee's Option is exercised. If the Optionee fails to pay for or to accept delivery
of all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock specified in the Optionee's notice upon tender of delivery thereof,
the Optionee's right to exercise the Option with respect to those shares of Common Stock shall be terminated, unless the Company
otherwise agrees.


 


		(d)	EXERCISABILITY. An Option may be exercised so long as it is outstanding from time to time in whole or in part, to the extent
and subject to the terms and conditions that the Independent Administrative Committee in its discretion may provide in the Stock
Option Agreement. Such terms and conditions shall include provisions for exercise within twelve (12) months
after the Optionee's death or disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), provided that no Option shall
be exercisable after the expiration of the period described in paragraph (a) above. Except as the Independent Administrative
Committee in its discretion may otherwise provide in the Stock Option Agreement, an Option shall cease to be exercisable upon the
expiration of ninety (90) days following the termination of the Optionee's employment with, or the Optionee's other provision
of services to, the Company or a Subsidiary (or such later date as may be established at grant or at a later date by the Independent
Administrative Committee), subject to paragraph (a) above and Section 11 hereof.



 






    3


     


    

 


		(e)	NOTICE OF ISO STOCK DISPOSITION. The Optionee must notify the Company promptly in the event that he sells, transfers, exchanges
or otherwise disposes of any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of an ISO before the later of (i) the second anniversary
of the date of grant of the ISO and (ii) the first anniversary of the date the shares of Common Stock were issued upon the
exercise of the ISO.



 


		(f)	NO RIGHTS AS STOCKHOLDER. An Optionee shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock covered
by an Option until the date of issuance of a stock certificate or other evidence of legal and beneficial ownership to him for the
shares of Common Stock. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or other rights for which the record date is earlier than the
date the stock certificate or other evidence of legal and beneficial ownership is issued, other than as required or permitted pursuant
to Section 11.



 


		(g)	TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. Options shall not be transferable by the Optionee otherwise than by will or under the laws of descent
and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee, except that the Independent Administrative
Committee may specify in a Stock Option Agreement that pertains to an NSO that the Optionee may transfer such NSO to a member of
the Immediate Family (as hereinafter defined) of the Optionee, to a trust solely for the benefit of the Optionee and the Optionee's
Immediate Family, or to a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or members are the Optionee and members
of the Optionee's Immediate Family. “Immediate Family” shall mean, with respect to any Optionee, such Optionee's
child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law,
brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and shall include adoptive relationships.



 


		(h)	NO OPTION OR STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT RE-PRICING. Without limitation of the authority set forth in Section 3 or Section 11
hereof, no Option (or SAR) shall have its exercise or strike price lowered nor shall any Option or SAR be settled, cancelled, forfeited,
exchanged or surrendered in exchange or otherwise in consideration for a new Option or SAR with an exercise or strike price that
is less than that of such settled, cancelled, forfeited, exchanged or surrendered Option or SAR (or in exchange for cash or another
type of award or consideration), unless the stockholders of the Company shall have approved of such transaction.



 


	6.	STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS



 


The Independent Administrative Committee
may grant SARs in respect of such number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Plan as it shall determine, in its discretion,
and may grant SARs either separately or in connection with Options, as described in the following sentence. SARs granted in connection
with an Option may be exercised only to the extent of the surrender of the related Option, and, to the extent of the exercise of
the related Option, the SAR shall terminate. Shares of Common Stock covered by an Option that terminates upon the exercise of a
related SAR shall cease to be available under the Plan. The terms and conditions of a SAR related to an Option shall be contained
in the Stock Option Agreement, and the terms of a SAR not related to any Option shall be contained in a SAR Agreement.


 


Upon exercise of a SAR, the Optionee shall
be entitled to receive from the Company an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value, on the exercise date, of the number
of shares of Common Stock as to which the SAR is exercised, over the exercise price for those shares under a related Option or,
if there is no related Option, over the base value stated in the SAR Agreement. Any amount payable by the Company upon exercise
of a SAR shall be paid in the form of cash or other property (including shares of Common Stock), as provided in the Stock Option
Agreement or SAR Agreement governing the SAR.


 






    4


     


    

 


	7.	RESTRICTED STOCK



 


The Independent Administrative Committee
may grant or award shares of Restricted Stock in respect of such number of shares of Common Stock, and subject to such terms or
conditions, as it shall determine and specify in a Restricted Stock Agreement, and may provide in a Stock Option Agreement for
an Option to be exercisable for shares of Restricted Stock.


 


A holder of Restricted Stock shall have
all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote the shares of stock and the right to receive any
cash dividends, unless the Independent Administrative Committee shall otherwise determine. Unless a grantee's Restricted Stock
Agreement provides to the contrary, unvested Restricted Stock granted under the Plan shall not be transferred without the written
consent of the Board. In addition, at the time of termination for any reason of a grantee's employment or other service relationship
with the Company or a Subsidiary, the Company shall have the right, in the case of unvested Restricted Stock, (1) to cause the
forfeiture of such shares of Restricted Stock for no consideration (2) to purchase all or any of such shares of Restricted Stock
at a price equal to the lower of (a) the price paid to the Company for such shares of Restricted Stock or (b) the Fair
Market Value of such shares of Restricted Stock at the time of repurchase, (3) to waive vesting requirements, (4) to permit continued
vesting based on such criteria as the Independent Administrative Committee shall determine or (5) to provide for such other treatment
as the Independent Administrative Committee shall determine and set forth in the applicable agreement. Nothing in the Plan shall
be construed to give any person the right to require the Company to purchase any shares of Common Stock granted as Restricted Stock.


 


Stock certificates, if any, representing
Restricted Stock shall be imprinted with a legend to the effect that the shares of Restricted Stock represented may not be sold,
exchanged, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of except in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Stock
Agreement and, if the Independent Administrative Committee so determines, the holder may be required to deposit the stock certificates
or other evidence of legal and beneficial ownership with the President, Treasurer, Secretary or other officer of the Company or
with an escrow agent designated by the Independent Administrative Committee, together with a stock power or other instrument of
transfer appropriately endorsed in blank. In the event that the shares of Restricted Stock are not represented by a stock certificate,
the Company shall direct the Company's registrar and transfer agent to make an appropriate notation of the restrictions on transfer
to which the shares of Restricted Stock are subject in the stock books and records of the Company.


 


	8.	OTHER RIGHTS



 


Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the
Independent Administrative Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the individuals to whom and the time or
times at which such Other Rights shall be granted. Each Participant who is granted an Other Right shall receive an award agreement,
containing such terms and conditions as the Independent Administrative Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, which
agreement shall set forth, among other things, the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to such Other Right,
or the manner in which such Other Right shall be settled (e.g., in shares of Common Stock, cash or other property), or the conditions,
if any, to the vesting and/or payment or settlement of such Other Right (which may include, but not be limited to, achievement
of performance criteria) and all other terms and conditions of such Other Right. The Independent Administrative Committee may make
awards of Other Rights consisting of unrestricted shares of Common Stock to such individuals and in such amounts as the Independent
Administrative Committee may determine (subject to Section 13(d)). To the extent that an Other Award is granted with a vesting
condition based upon the attainment of performance criteria, any dividends payable with respect to the Common Stock subject to
the award (or dividend equivalents awarded with respect to such award) shall be subject to the same performance criteria as are
applicable to the award to which the dividend or dividend equivalent relate and shall be paid or forfeited, as the case may be,
based on the attainment, or failure to attain, the applicable performance criteria.


 


	9.	METHOD OF GRANTING OPTIONS, RESTRICTED STOCK AND OTHER RIGHTS



 


The grant of Options, shares of Restricted
Stock and Other Rights shall be made by action of the Board or the Independent Administrative Committee, at a meeting at which
a quorum of its members is present, or by written consent of its members; provided, however, that if an individual
to whom a grant has been made fails to execute and deliver to the Independent Administrative Committee a Stock Option Agreement,
Restricted Stock Agreement or SAR Agreement (or an agreement evidencing an Other Right) within thirty (30) days after it is submitted
to him, the Option, shares of Restricted Stock, SAR or Other Rights granted under the applicable agreement shall be voidable by
the Company at its election, without further notice to the grantee. No agreement is required to be executed in respect of awards
of vested shares of Common Stock.


 






    5


     


    

 


	10.	REQUIREMENTS OF LAW



 


The Company shall not be required to transfer
shares of Restricted Stock or to sell or issue any shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of any Option or the exercise or vesting
of an award of Other Rights (as applicable) if the issuance of such shares of Restricted Stock or shares of Common Stock will result
in a violation by the recipient or the Company of any provisions of any law, statute or regulation of any governmental authority.
Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time (the “Securities Act”),
upon the transfer of shares of Restricted Stock or the exercise of any Option or the exercise or vesting of an award of Other Rights
(as applicable), the Company shall not be required to issue shares of Restricted Stock or shares of Common Stock, as the case may
be, unless the Independent Administrative Committee has received evidence satisfactory to it to the effect that the holder of the
shares of Restricted Stock or the Option will not transfer such shares of Restricted Stock or shares of Common Stock except pursuant
to a registration statement in effect under the Securities Act or unless an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company has
been received by the Company to the effect that registration is not required. Any determination in this connection by the Independent
Administrative Committee shall be conclusive. The Company shall not be obligated to take any other affirmative action in order
to cause the transfer of shares of Restricted Stock or the exercise of an Option or the delivery of shares of Common Stock with
respect to the exercise or vesting of an award of Other Rights (as applicable) to comply with any law or regulations of any governmental
authority, including, without limitation, the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws.


 


	11.	CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE



 


In the event that the outstanding shares
of Common Stock are hereafter changed for a different number or kind of stock or other securities of the Company, by reason of
a reorganization, recapitalization, exchange of stock, stock split, combination of stock or dividend payable in stock or other
securities or similar corporate event, the Independent Administrative Committee shall have the right and discretion to make a corresponding
adjustment in the number and kind of stock or other securities covered by outstanding Options and Other Rights and for which Options,
shares of Restricted Stock and Other Rights may be granted under the Plan. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options (and, if
applicable, Other Rights) shall be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the Option (or
Other Right, if applicable), but the price per share specified in the applicable award agreement shall be correspondingly adjusted;
provided, however, that no adjustment shall be made with respect to an ISO that would constitute a modification as
defined in Section 424 of the Code which would cause the Option to fail to constitute an ISO without the consent of the holder.
Any such adjustment made by the Independent Administrative Committee shall be conclusive and binding upon all affected persons,
including the Company and all Optionees and holders of Other Rights.


 


If while unexercised Options or Other Rights
remain outstanding under the Plan the Company merges or consolidates with a wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of re-incorporating
itself, including under the laws of another jurisdiction, the Optionees or holders of Other Rights will be entitled to acquire
shares of common stock of the re-incorporated company upon the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to
such re-incorporation (unless such re-incorporation involves a change in the number of shares of common stock or the capitalization
of the company, in which case proportional adjustments shall be made as provided above) and the Plan, unless otherwise rescinded
by the Board, will remain the Plan of the re-incorporated company.


 


Except as otherwise provided in the
preceding paragraph, if the Company or a Subsidiary is merged or consolidated with another corporation, whether or not the
Company is the surviving entity, or if the Company is liquidated or sells or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all
of its assets to another entity while unexercised or unvested Options, shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights remain
outstanding under the Plan, or if other circumstances occur in which the Independent Administrative Committee in its sole and
absolute discretion deems it appropriate for the provisions of this paragraph to apply (in each case, an “Applicable
Event”), then: (a) in the discretion of the Independent Administrative Committee, each holder of an
outstanding Option or Other Right shall be entitled, upon exercise of the Option (or exercise or vesting of the Other Right),
to receive in lieu of shares of Common Stock, such stock or other securities or property as he would have received had he
exercised or vested in the Option or Other Right immediately prior to the Applicable Event; or (b) the Independent
Administrative Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, cancel outstanding and unexercised Options and Other
Rights as of the effective date of any such Applicable Event; or (c) the Independent Administrative Committee may, in
its sole discretion, convert some or all Options or Other Rights into Options or Other Rights with respect to the stock or
other securities of the surviving corporation pursuant to an Applicable Event; or (d) the Independent Administrative
Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, assume the outstanding and unexercised options to purchase stock or other
securities of any corporation and convert such options into Options to purchase shares of Common Stock, whether pursuant to
this Plan or not, pursuant to an Applicable Event; provided, however, that notice of any cancellation pursuant
to clause (b) shall be given to each holder of an Option or exercisable Other Right not less than ten business days
preceding the effective date of such Applicable Event; and provided, further, that the Independent
Administrative Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion waive, generally or in one or more specific instances, any
limitations imposed on exercise (including a change in any existing exercise schedule) with respect to any Option or
exercisable Other Right so that such Option shall be exercisable in full or in part, as the Independent Administrative
Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine, during such ten business day period. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, immediately upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control” or “Termination
Event” (as each is defined on Exhibit A hereto) all awards issued and outstanding under the Plan shall become fully
vested and exercisable (as the case may be), whether or not the holder of the award experiences a termination of employment
or service in connection with the Change in Control.


 






    6


     


    

 


Except as expressly provided to the contrary
in this Section 11, the issuance by the Company of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of any class for cash
or property or for services, either upon direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants, or upon conversion of stock or
obligations of the Company convertible into such stock or other securities, shall not affect the number, class or price of the
shares of Common Stock then subject to outstanding Options or Other Rights.


 


	12.	FORFEITURE FOR DISHONESTY, VIOLATION OF AGREEMENTS OR TERMINATION FOR CAUSE



 


Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan
to the contrary (other than Section 13(c), which this Section 12 shall be subject to), if the Independent Administrative Committee
determines, after full consideration of the facts, that:


 


		(a)	the Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights) has been engaged in fraud, embezzlement or theft in
the course of his employment by or involvement with the Company or a Subsidiary, has made unauthorized disclosure of trade secrets
or other proprietary information of the Company or a Subsidiary or of a third party who has entrusted such information to the Company
or a Subsidiary, or has been convicted of a felony, or crime involving moral turpitude or any other crime which reflects negatively
upon the Company; or



 


		(b)	the Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights) has violated the terms of any employment, noncompetition,
nonsolicitation, confidentiality, nondisclosure or other similar agreement with the Company to which he is a party; or



 


		(c)	the employment or involvement with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock
                                                               or Other Rights) was terminated for “cause,” as defined in any employment agreement with the Optionee (or holder
                                                               of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights), if applicable, or if there is no such agreement, as determined by the
                                                               Independent Administrative Committee, which may determine that “cause” includes among other matters the willful
                                                               failure or refusal of the Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights) to perform and carry out his
                                                               assigned duties and responsibilities diligently and in a manner satisfactory to the Independent Administrative Committee;
                                                               then the Optionee's right to exercise an Option shall terminate as of the date of such act (in the case of (a) or (b))
                                                               or such termination (in the case of (c)), the Optionee shall forfeit all unexercised Options (or the holder shall forfeit all
                                                               unvested shares of Restricted Stock or unvested Other Rights) and the Company shall have the right to repurchase all or any
                                                               part of the shares of Common Stock acquired by the Optionee upon any previous exercise of any Option (or any previous
                                                               acquisition by the holder of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights, whether then vested or unvested), at a price equal
                                                               to the lower of (a) the amount paid to the Company upon such exercise or acquisition (or to cause such stock to be
                                                               forfeited without consideration if no amount was paid), or (b) the Fair Market Value of such stock at the time of
                                                               repurchase. If an Optionee whose behavior the Company asserts falls within the provisions of the clauses above has exercised
                                                               or attempts to exercise an Option prior to consideration of the application of this Section 12 or prior to a decision of
                                                               the Independent Administrative Committee, the Company shall not be required to recognize such exercise until the Independent
                                                               Administrative Committee has made its decision and, in the event any exercise shall have taken place, it shall be of no force
                                                               and effect (and shall be void AB INITIO) if the Independent Administrative Committee makes an adverse determination; provided, however,
                                                               that if the Independent Administrative Committee finds in favor of the Optionee then the Optionee will be deemed to have
                                                               exercised the Option retroactively as of the date he originally gave notice of his attempt to exercise or actual exercise, as
                                                               the case may be. The decision of the Independent Administrative Committee as to the cause of an Optionee's (or holder of
                                                               shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights) discharge and the damage done to the Company shall be final, binding and
                                                               conclusive. No decision of the Independent Administrative Committee, however, shall affect in any manner the finality of the
                                                               discharge of such Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock or
Other Rights) by the Company. For purposes of this Section 12, reference to the Company shall include any Subsidiary.

	13.	MISCELLANEOUS



 


		(a)	NO GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER SERVICE RELATIONSHIP. Neither the Plan nor any Stock Option Agreement, Restricted Stock
Agreement, SAR Agreement or other agreement hereunder shall give an employee the right to continue in the employment of the Company
or a Subsidiary or give the Company or a Subsidiary the right to require an employee to continue in employment. Neither the Plan
nor any Stock Option Agreement, Restricted Stock Agreement, SAR Agreement or other agreement hereunder shall give a director or
other service provider the right to continue to perform services for the Company or a Subsidiary or give the Company or a Subsidiary
the right to require the director or service provider to continue to perform services.



 


		(b)	TAX WITHHOLDING. To the extent required by law, the Company shall withhold or cause to be withheld income and other taxes with
respect to any income recognized by a grantee by reason of the exercise or vesting of an Option or shares of Restricted Stock,
or payments with respect to Other Rights, and as a condition to the receipt of any Option, shares of Restricted Stock or Other
Rights the grantee shall agree that if the amount payable to him by the Company and any Subsidiary in the ordinary course is insufficient
to pay such taxes, then he shall upon the request of the Company pay to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy its tax withholding
obligations.



 


Without limiting the foregoing, the
Independent Administrative Committee may in its discretion permit any grantee's withholding obligation to be paid in whole or in
part in the form of shares of Common Stock by withholding from the shares of Common Stock to be issued or by accepting delivery
from the grantee of shares of Common Stock already owned by him. The Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock for such purposes
shall be determined as set forth in Section 5(b). An Optionee may not make any such payment in the form of shares of Common
Stock acquired upon the exercise of an ISO until such shares have been held by him for at least two years after the date the ISO
was granted and at least one year after the date the ISO was exercised. If payment of withholding taxes is made in whole or in
part in shares of Common Stock, the grantee shall deliver to the Company stock certificates registered in his name or other evidence
of legal and beneficial ownership representing a number of shares of Common Stock owned by him, fully vested and free of all liens,
claims and encumbrances of every kind, duly endorsed or accompanied by stock powers duly endorsed by the record holder of the shares
of Common Stock represented by such stock certificates. The Compensation Committee may approve comparable procedures to those set
forth in the preceding sentence in the event of shares held in book-entry form. If the grantee is subject to Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act, his ability to pay his withholding obligation in the form of shares of Common Stock shall be subject to such
additional restrictions as may be necessary to avoid any transaction that might give rise to liability under Section 16(b)
of the Exchange Act.


 


		(c)	RECOUPMENT POLICY. If (1) the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material non-compliance of
the Company, as a result of misconduct, with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws and (2) a recipient
of an award under the Plan knowingly engaged in such misconduct then the Independent Administrative Committee may determine in
its discretion that absent such non-compliance a lesser award would have been awarded under the Plan or that a lesser amount would
have been realized with respect to an award or awards under the Plan. In the event that the Independent Administrative Committee
makes such a determination, the Independent Administrative Committee may cause, in its discretion, any such award granted under
the Plan to such a recipient which is unvested or unexercised to be reduced or eliminated and may require any such participant
who has exercised or become vested in such an award to repay all or a portion of such award to the Company. Any determination of
the Independent Administrative Committee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the applicable award recipient.
The determination of the Independent Administrative Committee need not be uniform with respect to award recipients. Each recipient
of an award under the Plan shall conclusively be deemed to have consented to the authority of the Independent Administrative Committee
hereunder. The provisions of this Section 13(c) and those of Section 12 shall be of no force or effect from and after the occurrence
of a Change in Control or a Termination Event or upon such additional events as the Independent Administrative Committee may specify.



 






    8


     


    

 


		(d)	CERTAIN VESTING RULES. Unless otherwise determined by the Independent Administrative Committee in its discretion, (1) if the
vesting condition for any award made to a participant who is an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary is based solely upon continued
employment for a period of time, such vesting period shall not be less than 36 months for the vesting of the entire Award (provided
that ratable portions of each such award may vest periodically during such 36 month period) and (2) if the vesting condition for
any award made to a participant who is not an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary is based solely upon continued service for
a period of time, such vesting period shall not be less than 12 months for the vesting of the entire award. The minimum vesting
requirement set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply to awards under the Plan to members of the Board in respect of
Board service. The provisions of this Section 13(d) shall not be construed to limit the provisions of Section 11 or to limit the
ability of the Independent Administrative Committee to accelerate awards upon a termination of a participant’s employment
(which the Independent Administrative Committee may do in its discretion); any such acceleration provisions may be (but are not
required to be) set forth in an award agreement (which may, without limitation, provide for accelerated vesting upon the death
of a participant or upon a change in control or similar event).



 


		(e)	USE OF PROCEEDS. The proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Options shall constitute general funds of
the Company.



 


		(f)	CONSTRUCTION. All masculine pronouns used in this Plan shall include both sexes; the singular shall include the plural and
the plural the singular unless the context otherwise requires. The titles of the sections of the Plan are included for convenience
only and shall not be construed as modifying or affecting their provisions. All other provisions of this Plan notwithstanding,
this Plan shall be administered and construed so as to avoid any person who receives an Option or Other Right incurring any adverse
tax consequences under Code Section 409A. The Independent Administrative Committee may suspend or amend the application of
any provision of the Plan which could, in the sole determination of the Board of Directors, result in an adverse tax consequence
to any person under Code Section 409A.



 


		(g)	GOVERNING LAW. This Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard
to the principles of conflict of laws.



 


	14.	EFFECTIVE DATE, DURATION, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN



 


The Plan shall be effective as of May 21,
2020 (the “Effective Date”), subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders. The Independent Administrative
Committee may grant Options, shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights under the Plan from time to time until the close of business
on May 21, 2030. The Board may at any time amend the Plan; provided, however, that without approval of the Company's
stockholders there shall be no: (a) change in the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan, except
by operation of the provisions of Section 11, either to any one grantee or in the aggregate; (b) change in the class
of persons eligible to receive Options, shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights; or (c) other change in the Plan that requires
stockholder approval under applicable law or regulation. No amendment shall adversely affect outstanding Options (or shares of
Restricted Stock or Other Rights) without the consent of the Optionee (or holder of shares of Restricted Stock or Other Rights).
The Plan may be terminated at any time by action of the Board, but any such termination will not terminate any Option, shares of
Restricted Stock or Other Rights then outstanding without the consent of the Optionee or the holder of such shares of Restricted
Stock or Other Rights.
