may be issued under the Plan shall be six million (6,000,000) shares. Upon approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s 2006 Performance-Based Stock Incentive Plan will be terminated for purposes of future grants,
and the Company will only have the 6,000,000 shares authorized for issuance pursuant to this Section 4.1 available for future grants.

and seven tenths (1.7) shares for each share of Common Stock subject to such award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, subject to adjustment as to the number and kind of shares pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof. 

(b) For purposes of the share limit set forth in Section 4.1 above, upon the exercise or settlement of an Option or a Stock
Appreciation Right, or the issuance or vesting of Restricted Stock or a Restricted Stock Unit, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan will be reduced by the gross number of shares that had been counted against the share limit for
the award subject to such exercise, settlement, issuance or vesting, and not by the net amount of shares actually issued to the Participant. Such gross amount shall include, in addition to the number of shares issued to the Participant, any shares
subject to the award which are surrendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise, settlement, issuance or vesting of the Option, Stock Appreciation Right or

Participant pursuant to an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement (excluding any shares subject to an award which are surrendered by a Participant or withheld by the Company in satisfaction of tax
withholding obligations in connection with the exercise, settlement, issuance or vesting of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Restricted Stock Award), the number of shares of Common Stock that had been counted against the share limit allocable
to the unexercised or unsettled portion of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the shares so reacquired or forfeited shall again be available for grant or issuance under the Plan. 

4.4 Changes in Capital Structure. In the event that the outstanding shares of Common Stock are hereafter increased or
decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reclassification, stock dividend, or other change in the capital
structure of the Company, then appropriate adjustments shall be made by the Administrator to the aggregate number and kind of shares subject to this Plan, the number and kind of shares and the price per share subject to outstanding Option
Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements and the limits on the number of shares under Sections 3.3, 4.2 and 4.3 all in order to preserve, as nearly as practical, but not to increase, the benefits to
Participants. 
 ARTICLE 5. 

OPTIONS 
 5.1
Grant of Stock Options. The Administrator shall have the right to grant pursuant to this Plan Options subject to such terms, restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may determine at the time of grant. Such conditions may

specify the number of shares subject thereto, vesting provisions relating to such Option, the Exercise Price per share, and whether the Option is an Incentive Option or Nonqualified Option. As soon as is practical following the grant of an Option,
an Option Agreement shall be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Optionee to whom such Option was granted. Each Option Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent
with the provisions of this Plan, as the Administrator shall, from time to time, deem desirable. 
 5.3 Exercise
Price. The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock covered by each Option shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following: (a) the Exercise Price of an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market
Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted, (b) the Exercise Price of a Nonqualified Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date the Nonqualified Option is granted, and (c) if the person to whom an Incentive
Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder on the date of grant, the Exercise Price shall not be less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted. However, an Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that
set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424 of the Code. 

5.4 Payment of Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon exercise of an Option and may be made, in
the discretion of the Administrator, subject to any legal restrictions, by: (a) cash; (b) check; (c) the surrender of shares of Common Stock owned by the Optionee, which surrendered shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value as of
the date of such exercise; (d) the cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee; (e) the waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Optionee for services rendered; (f) provided that a public market for the Common
Stock exists, a “same day sale” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to sell a portion of the shares so 







 
purchased to pay for the Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; (g) provided that a
public market for the Common Stock exists, a “margin” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to pledge the shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin
account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or (h) any combination
of the foregoing methods of payment or any other consideration or method of payment as shall be permitted by applicable law. 
 5.5
Term and Termination of Options. Except for issuances of Incentive Options to 10% Stockholders, the term and provisions for termination of each Option shall be as fixed by the Administrator, but no Option may be exercisable more than
seven (7) years after the date it is granted. With respect to the issuance of Incentive Options to 10% Stockholders, the term and provisions for termination of each such Incentive Option shall not exceed five (5) years after the date it is
granted. 
 5.6 Vesting and Exercise of Options. Each Option shall vest and become exercisable in one or more
installments, at such time or times and subject to such conditions, including without limitation continued employment or the achievement of specified performance goals or objectives established with respect to one or more Performance Criteria, as
shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 5.7 Annual Limit on Incentive Options. To the extent required for
“incentive stock option” treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Options granted under this Plan and any other
plan of the Company or any Affiliated Company become exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. 

5.8 Nontransferability of Options. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.8, Options shall not be
assignable or transferable except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a DRO entered by a court in settlement of marital property rights, and during the life of the Optionee, Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee.
At the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with rules it establishes from time to time, Optionees may be permitted to transfer some or all of their Nonqualified Options to one or more “family members,” which is not a
“prohibited transfer for value,” provided that (i) the Optionee (or such Optionee’s estate or representative) shall remain obligated to satisfy all income or other tax withholding obligations associated with the exercise of such
Nonqualified Option; (ii) the Optionee shall notify the Company in writing that such transfer has occurred and disclose to the Company the name and address of the “family member” or “family members” and their relationship to
the Optionee, and (iii) such transfer shall be effected pursuant to transfer documents in a form approved by the Committee. For purposes of the foregoing, the terms “family members” and “prohibited transfer for value”
have the meaning ascribed to them in the General Instructions to Form S-8 (or any successor form) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 

5.9 Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee or permitted transferee of an Option shall have no rights or privileges as a
stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Option until such Option has been duly exercised and certificates or book entries representing shares purchased upon such exercise have been issued or registered to such person. 

5.10 Repricing Prohibited. Except in connection with a change in the capital structure of the Company as described in
Section 4.4 hereof, the terms of any outstanding Options may not be amended to reduce the exercise price of any outstanding Options or to cancel any outstanding Options in exchange for cash, other awards or Options or Stock Appreciation Rights
with an exercise price or base value that is less than the exercise price of the original Options, and no other modification that would be treated as a “repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements
adopted by the Nasdaq Stock Market may be made to any Options, without the prior approval of the Company’s stockholders. 
 5.11
Compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 5 to the contrary, all Option Agreements must be structured to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, as determined
by the Committee.

Appreciation Rights, subject to such terms, restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may determine at the time of grant. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, continued employment or the achievement of specified performance
goals or objectives established by the Committee with respect to one or more Performance Criteria. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted on a basis that allows for the exercise of the right by the Participant or that provides for the automatic
settlement of the right upon a specified date or event. 
 8.2 Stock Appreciation Right Agreements. Each Stock
Appreciation Right granted pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, which shall specify the number of shares subject thereto, vesting provisions relating to such Stock Appreciation Right and the Base Value
per share. As soon as is practicable following the grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Stock Appreciation Right Holder to whom such
Stock Appreciation Right was granted. Each Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Administrator shall, from time to time,
deem desirable. 
 8.3 Base Value. The Base Value per share of Common Stock covered by each Stock Appreciation Right
shall be determined by the Administrator, except that the Base Value of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is granted. 

8.4 Term and Termination of Stock Appreciation Rights. The term and provisions for termination of each Stock
Appreciation Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Stock Appreciation Right may be exercisable or subject to settlement more than seven (7) years after the date it is granted. 

8.5 Vesting of Stock Appreciation Rights. Each Stock Appreciation Right shall vest and become exercisable in one or more
installments at such time or times and subject to such conditions, including without limitation continued employment or the achievement of specified performance goals or objectives established with respect to one or more Performance Criteria, as
shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 8.6 Exercise or Settlement of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock
Appreciation Right will entitle the holder, upon exercise or other settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, to receive an amount determined by multiplying: (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on
the date of exercise or settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right over the Base Value of such Stock Appreciation Right, by (ii) the number of shares as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is exercised or settled. Upon such exercise or
settlement, the Company shall issue to the Stock Appreciation Right Holder a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the amount determined under the preceding sentence by the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date of exercise
or settlement, subject to applicable tax withholding requirements and to such conditions, as are set forth in this Plan and the applicable Stock Appreciation Rights Award Agreement. 







 8.7 Repricing Prohibited. Except in connection with a change in the capital
structure of the Company as described in Section 4.4 hereof, the terms of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights may not be amended to reduce the base value of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights or to cancel any outstanding Stock
Appreciation Rights in exchange for cash, other awards or Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise price or base value that is less than the base value of the original Stock Appreciation Rights, and no other modification that would be
treated as a “repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements adopted by the Nasdaq Stock Market may be made to any Stock Appreciation Rights, without the prior approval of the Company’s stockholders.

 8.8 Nontransferability of Stock Appreciation Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.8,
Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be assignable or transferable except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a DRO entered by a court in settlement of marital property rights, and during the life of the Stock Appreciation
Rights Holder, Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable only by the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder. At the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with rules it establishes from time to time, Stock Appreciation Rights Holders may be
permitted to transfer some or all of their Stock Appreciation Rights to one or more “family members,” which is not a “prohibited transfer for value,” provided that (i) the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder (or such
holder’s estate or representative) shall remain obligated to satisfy all income or other tax withholding obligations associated with the exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right; (ii) the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder shall notify the
Company in writing that such transfer has occurred and disclose to the Company the name and address of the “family member” or “family members” and their relationship to the holder, and (iii) such transfer shall be effected
pursuant to transfer documents in a form approved by the Committee. For purposes of the foregoing, the terms “family members” and “prohibited transfer for value” have the meaning ascribed to them in the General Instructions
to Form S-8 (or any successor form) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
 8.9 Rights as a
Stockholder. A Stock Appreciation Rights Holder or permitted transferee of a Stock Appreciation Rights Holder shall have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by a Stock Appreciation Right until
such Stock Appreciation Right has been duly exercised or settled and certificates or book entries representing shares issued upon such exercise or settlement have been issued or registered to such person. 

8.10 Compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the
contrary, all Stock Appreciation Right Agreements must be structured to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Committee. 

ARTICLE 9. 

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 

9.1 Administrator. Authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan shall be vested in the
Board, which may delegate such responsibilities in whole or in part to a committee consisting of two (2) or more members of the Board (the “Committee”). Members of the Committee may be appointed from time to time by, and shall serve
at the pleasure of, the Board. The Board may limit the composition of the Committee to those persons necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As used herein, the term
“Administrator” means the Board or, with respect to any matter as to which responsibility has been delegated to the Committee, the term Administrator shall mean the Committee. 

9.2 Powers of the Administrator. In addition to any other powers or authority conferred upon the Administrator elsewhere in
the Plan or by law, the Administrator shall have full power and authority: (a) to determine the persons to whom, and the time or times at which, Incentive Options, Nonqualified Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards shall
be granted, the number of shares to be represented by each Option or Stock Appreciation Right and the number of shares of Common Stock to be subject to Restricted Stock Awards, and the consideration to be received by the Company upon the exercise of
such Options or sale of the Restricted Stock or the Restricted Stock Units governed by such Restricted Stock Awards; (b) to interpret the Plan; (c) to create, amend or rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (d) to
determine the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in, and the form of, Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements; (e) to determine the identity or capacity of any persons who may be
entitled to exercise a 







 
Participant’s rights under any Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement under the Plan; (f) to correct any defect or supply any omission
or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement; (g) to accelerate the vesting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or waive any repurchase
rights of the Company with respect to Restricted Stock Awards; (h) to extend the expiration date of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right (subject to the maximum term permitted for any award as stated in the Plan); (i) to amend
outstanding Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements to provide for, among other things, any change or modification which the Administrator could have included in the original Agreement or in
furtherance of the powers provided for herein; and (j) to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, but only to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan. Any action, decision,
interpretation or determination made in good faith by the Administrator in the exercise of its authority conferred upon it under the Plan shall be final and binding on the Company and all Participants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall the Administrator have the power or authority to take any action that would require the consent of the Company’s stockholders under the terms of the Plan unless such consent has been obtained. 

9.3 Limitation on Liability. No employee of the Company or member of the Board or Committee shall be subject to any
liability with respect to duties under the Plan unless the person acts fraudulently or in bad faith. To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each member of the Board or Committee, and any employee of the Company with duties under
the Plan, who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of such person’s conduct in the performance of duties
under the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 10. 

CHANGE IN CONTROL 

10.1 Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights with respect to any
outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
 (a) Vesting of all
outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall accelerate automatically effective as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control unless the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights are to be assumed by the
acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or new options or new stock appreciation rights under a new stock incentive program (“New Incentives”) are to be issued in exchange therefor, as provided in subsection (b) below. 

(b) Vesting of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Right Agreements shall not accelerate if and to the extent that:
(i) the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (including the unvested portion thereof) are to be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or new options and stock appreciation rights of comparable value are to be issued
in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction, or (ii) the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (including the unvested portions thereof) are to be replaced by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent
thereof) with New Incentives containing such terms and provisions as the Administrator in its discretion may consider equitable. If outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are assumed, or if New Incentives of comparable value are issued in
exchange therefor, then each such Option and Stock Appreciation Right or new stock option or new stock appreciation right shall be appropriately adjusted, concurrently with the Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities or
other property that the Optionee or Stock Appreciation Rights Holder would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right had the Option or
Stock Appreciation Right been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and appropriate adjustment also shall be made to the Exercise Price such that the aggregate Exercise Price of each such Option or new option and the aggregate Base
Value of each such Stock Appreciation Right or new stock appreciation right shall remain the same as nearly as practicable. 
 (c) If
any Option or Stock Appreciation Right is assumed by an acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or a New Incentive is issued in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of a Change in Control transaction, then if so provided in an Option
Agreement or a Stock Appreciation Right Award Agreement, the vesting of the Option, the Stock Appreciation Right or the New Incentive shall accelerate if and at such time as the Optionee’s or Stock Appreciation Rights Holder’s service as
an employee, director, officer, consultant or other 







 
service provider to the acquiring or successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) is terminated involuntarily or voluntarily under certain circumstances within a specified period
following consummation of the Change in Control, pursuant to such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Option Agreement or Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, as the case may be. 

(d) If vesting of outstanding Options will accelerate pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Administrator in its discretion may
provide, in connection with the Change in Control transaction, for the purchase or exchange of each Option for an amount of cash or other property having a value equal to the difference (or “spread”) between: (x) the value of the cash
or other property that the Optionee would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option had the Option been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and
(y) the Exercise Price of the Option. 
 (e) The Administrator shall have the discretion to provide in each Option Agreement and
Stock Appreciation Right Agreement other terms and conditions that relate to (i) vesting of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right in the event of a Change in Control, and (ii) assumption of such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights or
issuance of comparable securities or New Incentives in the event of a Change in Control. The aforementioned terms and conditions may vary in each Option Agreement and Stock Appreciation Agreement, and may be different from and have precedence over
the provisions set forth in Sections 10.1(a) - 10.1(d) above. 
 (f) Outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall
terminate and cease to be exercisable upon consummation of a Change in Control except to the extent that the Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are assumed by the successor entity (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control
transaction. 
 (g) If outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights will not be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or
parent thereof), the Administrator shall cause written notice of a proposed Change in Control transaction to be given to Optionees and Stock Appreciation Rights Holders not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effective date of
the proposed transaction. 
 10.2 Restricted Stock Awards. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights with respect to
any outstanding Restricted Stock Awards in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
 (a) All Repurchase Rights shall
automatically terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such Change in Control and any shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units subject to such terminated Repurchase Rights, or Restricted Stock Units, whether or not subject to
such terminated Repurchase Rights shall immediately vest in full, except to the extent that in connection with such Change in Control, the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) provides for the continuance or assumption of
Restricted Stock Award Agreements or the substitution of new agreements of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and purchase price. 

(b) The Administrator in its discretion may provide in any Restricted Stock Award Agreement that if, upon a Change in Control, the
acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) assumes such Restricted Stock Award Agreement or substitutes new agreements of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation (with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of
shares and purchase price), then any Repurchase Right provided for in such Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall terminate, and the shares of Common Stock subject to the terminated Repurchase Right or any substituted shares shall immediately vest
in full, if the Participant’s service as an employee, director, officer, consultant or other service provider to the acquiring or successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) is terminated involuntarily or voluntarily under certain
circumstances within a specified period following consummation of a Change in Control, pursuant to such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement. 







 ARTICLE 11. 

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 

11.1 Amendments. The Board may from time to time alter or amend in such respects as the Board may deem advisable, subject
to compliance with applicable laws and the rules of the stock exchange or market system on which the Company’s Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading, and may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that the
Board may not alter or amend the Plan to modify or remove Section 5.10 or Section 8.7 of the Plan without the approval of the Company’s stockholders. No such alteration, amendment, suspension or termination shall be made which shall
substantially affect or impair the rights of any Participant under an outstanding Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement without such Participant’s consent. The Board may alter or amend the Plan to comply with requirements under
the Code relating to Incentive Options or other types of options which give Optionees more favorable tax treatment than that applicable to Options granted under this Plan as of the date of its adoption. Upon any such alteration or amendment, any
outstanding Option granted hereunder may, if the Administrator so determines and if permitted by applicable law, be subject to the more favorable tax treatment afforded to an Optionee pursuant to such terms and conditions. 

11.2 Plan Termination. Unless the Plan shall theretofore have been terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the Effective Date and no Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan thereafter, but Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award
Agreements then outstanding shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms. 
 ARTICLE 12. 

CANCELLATION AND RECISSION 

12.1 Adverse Acts. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or
Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the Administrator may cancel, terminate, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict any unexpired, unpaid, or deferred Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards at any time if the
Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of the Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, and the Plan, or if the Participant engages in any “Adverse Act.” For purposes
of this Section 12, an “Adverse Act” shall include: (i) the rendering of services for any organization or engaging directly or indirectly in any business which is or becomes competitive with the Company, or which organization or
business, or the rendering of services to such organization or business, is or becomes otherwise prejudicial to or in conflict with the interests of the Company; (ii) the disclosure to anyone outside the Company, or the use in other than the
Company’s business, without prior written authorization from the Company, of any confidential information or material relating to the business of the Company, acquired by the Participant either during or after employment with the Company;
(iii) the failure or refusal to disclose promptly and to assign to the Company in accordance with the Company’s policies and any agreement in effect between the Company and the Participant pertaining to confidentiality and/or ownership of
intellectual property all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived by the Participant during employment by the Company, relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or
development work of the Company; (iv) acts that result in termination of the Participant’s employment for cause; (v) a material violation of any rules, policies, procedures or guidelines of the Company; or (vi) any attempt
directly or indirectly to induce any employee of the Company to be employed or perform services elsewhere or any attempt directly or indirectly to solicit the trade or business of any current or prospective customer, supplier or partner of the
Company. 
 12.2 Agreement Upon Exercise or Settlement. Upon exercise, settlement, payment or delivery pursuant to
an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the Participant shall certify in a manner acceptable to the Company that he or she is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event
a Participant fails to comply with the provisions of paragraphs (i)-(vi) of Section 12.1 prior to, or during the six (6) months after, any exercise, settlement, payment or delivery pursuant to an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation
Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, such exercise, settlement, payment or delivery may be rescinded within two (2) years thereafter. In the event of any such rescission, the Participant shall pay to the Company the amount of
any gain realized or payment received as a result of the exercise, payment or delivery, in such manner and on such terms and conditions as may be required, and the Company shall be entitled to set off against the amount of any such gain any amount
owed to the Participant by the Company. 







 ARTICLE 13. 

TAX WITHHOLDING 

13.1 Withholding. The Company shall have the power to withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount
sufficient to satisfy any applicable Federal, state, and local tax withholding requirements at such times as required pursuant to such applicable Federal, state, and local tax withholding requirements, including but not limited to: (i) with
respect to any Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, the date on which the same is exercised or settled, (ii) with respect to any Restricted Stock Units, the date on which the applicable restrictions set forth in the Restricted Stock Award
Agreement and the Plan lapse and/or the date on which the Restricted Stock Units are settled, and (iii) with respect to the issuance of Restricted Stock, the date on which the shares are issued, if the Purchaser makes the election set forth in
Code Section 83(b), or, if the Purchaser does not make such election, then, the date on which that the applicable restrictions set forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement and the Plan lapse. To the extent permissible under applicable tax,
securities and other laws, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, permit a Participant to satisfy his or her obligation to pay any such tax, in whole or in part, up to an amount
determined on the basis of the highest marginal tax rate applicable to such Participant, by (a) directing the Company to apply shares of Common Stock to which the Participant is entitled as a result of the exercise or settlement of an Option or
a Stock Appreciation Right or as a result of the purchase of or lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock Awards or (b) delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant. The shares of Common Stock so applied or
delivered in satisfaction of the Participant’s tax withholding obligation shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date of measurement of the amount of income subject to withholding.

the Company and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Company and any Participant to be consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Participant. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed to
give the right to any Participant to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Affiliated Company or to interfere with the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company to discharge any Participant at any time.
