 Exhibit 10.1 

PICOR CORPORATION 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 2001 STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN 

SECTION 1. History; General Purpose of the Plan. 

(a)    History. The name of the plan is the Picor Corporation Amended and Restated 2001 Stock Option and
Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan was assumed and restated by Vicor Corporation on May 30, 2018 (the “Assumption Date”), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and between Picor Corporation and
Vicor Corporation, executed on May 25, 2018. As of the Assumption Date, only Non-Qualified Stock Options were outstanding under the Plan; no new awards of any type may be granted under the Plan after the
Assumption Date. 
 (b)    Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to encourage and enable the employees,
directors, consultants, and other key persons of the Company and its Affiliates upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts the Company largely depends for the successful conduct of its business to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. It
is anticipated that providing such persons with a direct stake in the Company’s welfare will assure a closer identification of their interests with those of the Company, thereby stimulating their efforts on the Company’s behalf and
strengthening their desire to remain with the Company.

 (i)    to select the
individuals to whom Awards may from time to time be granted;

determined by the Administrator) or dividends or deemed dividends on such deferrals; 
 (x)    at any
time to adopt, alter and repeal such rules, guidelines, and practices for administration of the Plan and for its own acts and proceedings as it shall deem advisable; to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Award (including related
written instruments); to make all determinations it deems advisable for the administration of the Plan; to decide all disputes arising in connection with the Plan; and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan; and 

(xi)    to amend or terminate the Plan. 

(c)    Indemnification. Neither the Board nor the Compensation Committee, nor any member of either, shall be
liable for any act, omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in good faith in connection with the Plan, and the members of the Board and the Compensation Committee shall be entitled in all cases to indemnification and
reimbursement by the Company in respect of any claim, loss, damage, judgment, settlement, or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising or resulting therefrom to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or under
any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage which may be in effect from time to time. 
 SECTION 4. Stock Issuable Under the
Plan; Changes in Stock; Mergers. 
 (a)    Stock Issuable. The maximum number of shares of Stock
reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be 511,915 shares, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3(b). For purposes of this limitation, the shares of Stock underlying any Awards which are forfeited, canceled, reacquired
by the Company, satisfied without the issuance of Stock, or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) shall be added back to the shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan. Subject to such overall limitation, shares of Stock may be
issued up to such maximum number pursuant to any type or types of Award; provided, however, no awards of any type may be made under the Plan after the Assumption Date. The shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan may be authorized but
unissued shares of Stock or shares of Stock reacquired by the Company and held in its treasury. 
 (b)    Changes
in Stock. Subject to Section 3(c) hereof, if, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock, the
outstanding shares of Stock are increased or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new or different shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares of Stock or other securities, or, if, as a result of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the
outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or any successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), the Administrator shall make an appropriate or proportionate
adjustment in (i) the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, (ii) the number of Stock Options that can be granted to any one individual participant, (iii) the number and kind of shares


  
 3 








 
or other securities subject to any then outstanding Awards under the Plan, and (v) the exercise price and/or exchange price for each share subject to any then outstanding Stock Options under
the Plan, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of Stock Options) as to which such Stock Options remain exercisable. The adjustment by the Administrator shall be final, binding, and
conclusive. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued under the Plan resulting from any such adjustment, but the Administrator in its discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares. 

The Administrator shall also make an appropriate or proportionate adjustment in the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards and the exercise price and
the terms of outstanding Awards to take into consideration material changes in accounting practices or principles, extraordinary dividends, acquisitions or dispositions of stock or property or any other event in order to avoid distortion in the
operation of the Plan, provided that no such adjustment shall be made in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, without the consent of the participant, if it would constitute a modification, extension, or renewal of the Stock Option within the
meaning of Section 424(h) of the Code. 
 (c)    Mergers and Other Transactions. In the case of and
subject to the consummation of (i) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company on a consolidated basis to an unrelated person or entity, (iii) a merger,
reorganization, or consolidation in which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting power immediately prior to such transaction do not own a majority of the outstanding voting power of the surviving or resulting entity immediately upon
completion of such transaction, (iv) the sale of all or a majority of the outstanding capital stock of the Company to an unrelated person or entity, or (v) any other transaction in which the owners of the Company’s outstanding voting
power prior to such transaction do not own at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the relevant entity immediately upon completion of the transaction (in each case, a “Transaction”), as of the effective date of such
Transaction, all Stock Options that are not exercisable shall become fully exercisable and all other Awards that are not vested shall become fully vested. Upon the effectiveness of the Transaction, the Plan and all outstanding Stock Options issued
hereunder shall terminate upon the effective time of any such Transaction, unless provision is made in connection with such Transaction in the sole discretion of the parties thereto for the assumption or continuation of Stock Options theretofore
granted (after taking into account any acceleration hereunder) by the successor entity, or the substitution of such Stock Options with new Stock Options of the successor entity or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with such adjustment as to the number
and kind of shares and the per share exercise prices as such parties shall agree (after taking into account any acceleration if any, hereunder). In the event of such termination, each holder shall be permitted, within a specified period of time
prior to the consummation of the Transaction as determined by the Administrator, to exercise all outstanding Stock Options held by such holder that are then exercisable or will become exercisable as of the effective time of the Transaction;
provided, however, that the exercise of Stock Options not exercisable prior to the Transaction shall be subject to the consummation of the Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, a “Transaction” shall
not refer to any merger, reorganization, or consolidation of the Company in which the surviving or resulting entity is an Affiliate of the Company at the time of such transaction. 

SECTION 5. Eligibility.
 Participants in the Plan will be
such full or part-time officers, employees, directors, consultants, and other key persons (including prospective employees) of the Company and its Affiliates who are responsible for or contribute to the management, growth or profitability of the
Company and its Affiliates as are selected from time to time by the Administrator in its sole discretion. 
 SECTION 6. Stock Options.

(a)    General. Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Administrator may have
approved from time to time. Stock Options outstanding as of the Assumption Date are Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

  
 4 








 (b)    Terms of Stock Options. Stock Options granted under
the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable. If the Administrator so determines, Stock
Options may be granted in lieu of cash compensation at the participant’s election, subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator may establish, as well as in addition to other compensation. Terms of an individual Stock Option award
shall be set forth in a Stock Option Award Agreement executed at the time of the award between the participant (i.e., the recipient of the award) and the Company. 

(i)    Exercise Price. The exercise price per share for the Stock covered by a
Stock Option shall be determined by the Administrator at the time of grant but shall not be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant. If an employee of the Company or an Affiliate owns or is deemed to own (by reason
of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10 percent of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation and an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such
employee, the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 110 percent of the Fair Market Value on the grant date. 

(ii)    Term of Stock Option. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the
Administrator. 
 (iii)    Exercisability; Rights of a Stockholder. Stock
Options shall become exercisable at such time or times, whether or not in installments, as shall be determined by the Administrator at or after the grant date; provided, however, that Stock Options granted in lieu of compensation shall be
exercisable in full as of the grant date. The Administrator may at any time accelerate the exercisability of all or any portion of any Stock Option. A holder shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to shares of Stock acquired upon the
exercise of a Stock Option and not as to unexercised Stock Options. 
 (iv)    Method of
Exercise. Stock Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company, specifying the number of shares to be purchased. Payment of the purchase price may be made by one or more of the
following methods to the extent provided in the Stock Option Award agreement or as otherwise provided by the Administrator: 

(A)    In cash, by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to the Administrator; 

(B)    If approved by the Administrator, through the delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares
of Stock that are not then subject to restrictions under any Company plan and that have been beneficially owned by the holder for such period as may be required by the Administrator or have been purchased by the participant on the open market. Such
surrendered shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date; 
 (C)    If approved by
the Administrator, through full or partial “net settlement,” whereby the holder instructs the Administrator to utilize some portion of the gain realized on exercise (i.e., the excess of the Fair Value of the share(s) of Stock purchased
over the aggregate Exercise Price) to fund (1) the purchase of the share(s) of Stock (i.e., the Exercise Price per share multiplied by the number of shares to be purchased), (2) the taxes due on the exercise, if any, or (3) a combination
of (1) and (2), resulting in settlement by issuance of that number of shares of Stock representing the net value of the exercise after deduction of the value of (1) and/or (2); or 

(D)    If approved by the Administrator, by the holder delivering to the Company a properly executed
exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company cash or a check payable and acceptable to the Company for the purchase price; provided that in the event the holder chooses to pay the purchase
price as so provided, the holder and the broker shall comply with such procedures and enter into such agreements of indemnity and other agreements as the Administrator shall prescribe as a condition of such payment procedure. 

  
 5 








 The delivery of certificates representing the shares of Stock to be purchased pursuant to the
exercise of a Stock Option will be contingent upon receipt from the holder (or a purchaser acting in his or her stead in accordance with the provisions of the Stock Option) by the Company of the full purchase price for such shares, payment of all
withholding taxes due as a result of the exercise of the Stock Option, and the fulfillment of any other requirements contained in the Stock Option Award Agreement or applicable provisions of laws. In the event a holder chooses to pay the purchase
price by previously-owned shares of Stock through the attestation method, the shares of Stock transferred to the holder upon the exercise of the Stock Option shall be net of the number of shares to which the holder has attested ownership. 

(c)    Non-transferability of Stock Options. No Stock Option shall
be transferable by the holder otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the holder’s lifetime, only by the holder or by the holder’s legal representative or
guardian in the event of the holder’s incapacity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide in the Award agreement regarding a given Stock Option that the holder may transfer, without consideration
for the transfer, his or her Non-Qualified Stock Options to members of his or her immediate family, to trusts for the benefit of such family members, or to partnerships in which such family members are the
only partners, provided that the transferee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable Stock Option. 

(d)     Termination. Except as may otherwise be provided in this Section 6(d) or by the
Administrator either in the Award agreement, or subject to Section 11 below, in writing after the Award agreement is issued, a participant’s rights in all Stock Options shall automatically terminate upon the participant’s termination
of employment with the Company and its Affiliates for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the period within which to exercise the Stock Option shall be modified as set forth below: 

(i)    Termination Due to Death. If the participant’s employment terminates
by reason of death, (A) any Stock Option held by the participant, which, but for such participant’s death, would have vested and become exercisable on or prior to the first anniversary of such termination, shall become fully exercisable
and (B) any Stock Option exercisable at the time of such termination may thereafter be exercised by the participant’s legal representative or legatee for a period of 12 months from the date of death or until the Expiration Date, if
earlier. 
 (ii)    Termination Due to Disability. If the participant’s
employment terminates by reason of Disability (as defined in Section 22(c)(3) of the Code), (A) any Stock Option held by the participant, which, but for such participant’s Disability, would have vested and become exercisable on or prior to
the first anniversary of such termination, shall become fully exercisable and (B) any Stock Option exercisable at the time of such termination may thereafter be exercised by the participant for a period of 12 months from the date of termination
or until the Expiration Date, if earlier. The death of the participant during the 12-month period provided in this Section 6(d)(ii) shall extend such period for another 12 months from the date of death or
until the Expiration Date, if earlier. 
 (iii)    Determination of Reason. The
Administrator’s determination of the reason for termination of the participant’s employment shall be conclusive and binding on the participant and his or her representatives or legatees. 

SECTION 7. Restricted Stock Awards.

(a)    Nature of Restricted Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock Award is an Award pursuant to which the
Company may, in its sole discretion, grant or sell, at such purchase price as determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shares of Stock subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Administrator may determine at the time of
grant (“Restricted Stock”), which purchase price shall be payable in cash or other form of consideration acceptable to the Administrator. Conditions may be based on continuing employment (or other service relationship) and/or achievement
of pre-established performance goals and objectives. The terms and 

  
 6 








 
conditions of each such agreement shall be determined by the Administrator, and such terms and conditions may differ among individual Awards and recipients. As of the Assumption Date, no
Restricted Stock Awards were outstanding under the Plan. 
 (b)    Rights as a Stockholder. Upon execution
of a written instrument setting forth the Restricted Stock Award and payment of any applicable purchase price, a holder shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the voting of the Restricted Stock, subject to such conditions contained
in the written instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock Award. Unless the Administrator shall otherwise determine, certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock shall remain in the possession of the Company until such Restricted Stock is vested as
provided in Section 7(d) below, and the holder shall be required, as a condition of the grant, to deliver to the Company a stock power endorsed in blank. 

(c)     Restrictions. Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise
encumbered or disposed of except as specifically provided herein or in the Restricted Stock Award agreement. Except as may otherwise be provided by the Administrator either in the Award agreement or, subject to Section 11 below, in writing
after the Award agreement is issued, if any, if a holder’s employment (or other service relationship) with the Company and its Affiliates terminates for any reason, any Restricted Stock that has not vested at the time of termination shall
automatically and without any requirement of notice to such holder from or other action by or on behalf of, the Company be deemed to have been reacquired by the Company at the lesser of its original purchase price or Fair Market Value (determined at
the time of termination) from such holder or such holder’s legal representative simultaneously with such termination of employment (or other service relationship), and thereafter shall cease to represent any ownership of the Company by the
holder or rights of the holder as a stockholder. Following such deemed reacquisition of unvested Restricted Stock that are represented by physical certificates, a holder shall surrender such certificates to the Company upon request without
consideration. 
 (d)    Vesting of Restricted Stock. The Administrator at the time of grant shall specify
the date or dates and/or the attainment of predetermined performance goals, objectives and other conditions on which Restricted Stock shall become vested, subject to such further rights of the Company or its assigns as may be specified in the
instrument evidencing the Restricted Stock Award. 
 (e)    Waiver, Deferral, and Reinvestment of
Dividends. The Restricted Stock Award agreement may require or permit the immediate payment, waiver, deferral, or investment of dividends paid on the Restricted Stock. 

SECTION 8. Unrestricted Stock Awards.

(a)    The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, grant (or sell at such purchase price determined by the
Administrator) an Unrestricted Stock Award to any recipient pursuant to which such recipient may receive shares of Stock free of any vesting restrictions (“Unrestricted Stock”) under the Plan. Unrestricted Stock Awards may be granted or
sold as described in the preceding sentence in respect of past services or other valid consideration, or in lieu of cash compensation due to such recipient. As of the Assumption Date, no Unrestricted Stock Awards were outstanding under the Plan.

 SECTION 9. Tax Withholding.

(a)    Payment by Participant. Each holder shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award or
of any Stock or other amounts received thereunder first becomes includable in the gross income of the holder for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any
Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. The Company and its Affiliates shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind
otherwise due to the holder. The Company’s obligation to deliver share certificates is subject to and conditioned on tax obligations being satisfied by the recipient. 

  
 7 








 (b)    Payment in Stock. Subject to approval by the
Administrator, a recipient may elect to have the minimum required tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) authorizing the Company to withhold from shares of Stock to be issued pursuant to any Award a number of shares
with an aggregate Fair Market Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the withholding amount due, or (ii) transferring to the Company shares of Stock owned by the participant with a minimum aggregate Fair Market
Value (as of the date the withholding is effected) that would satisfy the minimum withholding amount due.
 SECTION 10. Transfer; Leave of
Absence.
 For purposes of the Plan, the following events shall not be deemed a termination of employment: 

(a)     a transfer to the employment of the Company from an Affiliate or from the Company to an Affiliate, or from
one Affiliate to another; or 
 (b)    an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness, or for any other
purpose approved by the Company, if the employee’s right to re-employment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which the leave of absence was granted or if the
Administrator otherwise so provides in writing. 
 SECTION 11. Amendments and Termination.

The Board may, at any time, amend or discontinue the Plan and the Administrator may, at any time, amend or cancel any outstanding Award for the
purpose of satisfying changes in law or for any other lawful purpose, but no such action shall adversely affect rights under any outstanding Award without the holder’s consent. The Administrator may provide substitute Awards at the same or
reduced exercise or purchase price or with no exercise or purchase price in a manner not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, but such price, if any, must satisfy the requirements which would apply to the substitute or amended Award if it were
then initially granted under this Plan and satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, if applicable, but no such action shall adversely affect rights under any outstanding Award without the holder’s consent. If and to the extent
determined by the Administrator to be required by the Code to ensure that Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan are qualified under Section 422 of the Code or to ensure that compensation earned under Stock Options qualifies as
performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, if and to the extent intended to so qualify, Plan amendments shall be subject to approval by the Company or an Affiliate’s stockholders, as applicable, entitled to vote at a
meeting of stockholders. Payment of amounts intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be contingent on applicable stockholder approval. Nothing in this Section 11 shall limit the
Board’s authority to take any action permitted pursuant to Section 3. 
 SECTION 12. Status of Plan.

With respect to the portion of any Award that has not been exercised and any payments in cash, Stock or other consideration not received, a
recipient shall have no rights greater than those of a general creditor of the Company unless the Administrator shall otherwise expressly determine in connection with any Award or Awards. In its sole discretion, the Administrator may authorize the
creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the Company’s obligations to deliver Stock or make payments with respect to Awards hereunder, provided that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the foregoing
sentence. 
 SECTION 13. General Provisions.

(a)    Compliance with Legal Requirements. No shares of Stock shall be issued pursuant to an Award
until all applicable securities law and other legal and stock exchange or similar requirements have been satisfied. The Administrator may require the placing of such stop orders and restrictive legends on certificates for Stock and Awards as it
deems appropriate. 

  
 8 








 (b)    Trading Policy Restrictions. Stock Option
exercises and other transactions associated with Awards under the Plan shall be subject to Company policies associated with insider trading and trading restrictions, as well as terms and conditions established by the Administrator from time to time.

 (c)    Delivery of Stock Certificates. Stock issued under this Plan shall be deemed delivered for all
purposes when the Company or a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have mailed such certificates in the United States mail, addressed to the recipient, at the recipient’s last known address on file with the Company, or have delivered
through any other electronic means as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, including by making book-entry notations in the Company’s book-entry stock ledgers. 

(d)    Other Compensation Arrangements; No Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent
the Board from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements, including trusts, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. The adoption of this Plan and the grant of Awards do not confer
upon any employee any right to continued employment with the Company or any Affiliate. 
 (e)    Designation of
Beneficiary. Each recipient to whom an Award has been made under the Plan may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to exercise any Award or receive any payment under any Award payable on or after the recipient’s death. Any such
designation shall be on a form provided for that purpose by the Administrator and shall not be effective until received by the Administrator. If no beneficiary has been designated by a deceased recipient, or if the designated beneficiaries have
predeceased the recipient, the beneficiary shall be the recipient’s estate. 
 (f)    Code
Section 409A. The Company intends to administer the Plan in order to comply with Code Section 409A, or an exemption to Code Section 409A, with regard to Awards that constitute nonqualified deferred
compensation within the meaning of Code Section 409A. The provisions of Code Section 409A are incorporated by reference herein and in each Award to the extent necessary for any Award that is subject to Code Section 409A to comply
therewith. To the extent that the Company determines that an award recipient would be subject to the additional tax imposed pursuant to Code Section 409A as a result of any provision of any Award granted under the Plan, such provision shall be
interpreted, or deemed amended, to the minimum extent necessary to avoid application of such additional tax. The nature of such amendment shall be determined by the Committee. 

SECTION 14. Effective Date of Plan.
 This
Plan shall become effective upon approval by the stockholders in accordance with applicable law. Subject to such approval by the stockholders and to the requirement that no Stock may be issued hereunder prior to such approval, Stock Options and
other Awards may be granted hereunder on and after adoption of this Plan by the Board. 
 SECTION 15. Governing Law.

This Plan and all Awards and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Delaware, applied without regard to conflict of law principles.
