  The Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corporation 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is designed to
      provide certain Key Persons (as defined below), whose initiative and efforts are deemed to be important to the successful conduct of the business of Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corporation (the "Company"), with incentives to (a) enter into and remain
      in the service of the Company or its Affiliates (as defined below), (b) acquire a proprietary interest in the success of the Company, (c) maximize their performance and (d) enhance the long-term performance of the Company.

  
    
      	1.2	
              Administration

            


    

  

  (a) Administration.  The Plan shall be administered by the
      Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") or such other committee of the Board as may be designated by the Board to administer the Plan (the "Administrator"); provided that (i) in the event the Company is subject to Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the Administrator shall be composed of two or more directors, each of
      whom is a "Non-Employee Director" (a "Non-Employee Director") under Rule 16b-3 (as promulgated and interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the 1934 Act, or any successor rule or regulation thereto as in effect from
      time to time ("Rule 16b-3")), and (ii) the Administrator shall be composed solely of two or more directors who are "independent directors" under the rules of any stock exchange on which the Company's Common Stock (as defined below) is traded; provided further, however, that, (A) the requirement in the preceding clause (i) shall apply only when required to exempt an Award intended to qualify for an exemption under the applicable provisions referenced therein, (B)
      the requirement in the preceding clause (ii) shall apply only when required pursuant to the applicable rules of the applicable stock exchange and (C) if at any time the Administrator is not so composed as required by the preceding provisions of this
      sentence, that fact will not invalidate any grant made, or action taken, by the Administrator hereunder that otherwise satisfies the terms of the Plan.  Subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law, and in addition to other express powers and
      authorizations conferred on the Administrator by the Plan, the Administrator shall have the full power and authority to: (1) designate the Persons (as defined below) to receive Awards (as defined below) under the Plan; (2) determine the types of
      Awards granted to a participant under the Plan; (3) determine the number of shares to be covered by, or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated with respect to, Awards; (4) determine the terms and conditions of
      any Awards; (5) determine whether, and to

  
    1

    
      


  

  

  

  what extent, and under what circumstances, Awards may be settled or exercised in cash, shares, other securities, other
      Awards or other property, or cancelled, forfeited or suspended, and the methods by which Awards may be settled, exercised, cancelled, forfeited or suspended; (6) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances cash, shares, other
      securities, other Awards, other property and other amounts payable with respect to an Award shall be deferred, either automatically or at the election of the holder thereof or the Administrator; (7) construe, interpret and implement the Plan and any
      Award Agreement (as defined below); (8) prescribe, amend, rescind or waive rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules governing its operation, and appoint such agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the
      Plan; (9)  correct any defect, supply any omission and reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award Agreement; and (10) make any other determination and take any other action that the Administrator deems necessary or desirable for the
      administration of the Plan.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations and other decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Award shall be within the sole discretion of the
      Administrator, may be made at any time and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all Persons.

  (b) General Right of Delegation.  Except to the extent prohibited
      by applicable law, the applicable rules of a stock exchange or any charter, by-laws or other agreement governing the Administrator, the Administrator may delegate all or any part of its responsibilities to any Person or Persons selected by it; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer of the Company be
      delegated the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, the following individuals: (i) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the 1934 Act, or (ii) officers of the Company (or directors of the Company) to whom authority to grant or
      amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided, further, that
      any delegation of administrative authority shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, Rule 16b-3, to the extent applicable) and the rules of any applicable stock exchange. 
      Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Administrator specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Administrator may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegate.  At all
      times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 1.2(b) shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Administrator.

  (c) Indemnification.  No member of the Board, the Administrator
      or any employee of the Company or an Affiliate (each such Person, a "Covered Person") shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken or any determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award hereunder.  Each Covered
      Person shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from (i) any loss, cost, liability or expense (including attorneys' fees) that may be imposed upon or incurred by such Covered Person in connection with or resulting from any
      action, suit or proceeding to which such Covered Person may be a party or in which such Covered Person may be involved by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Plan or any Award Agreement and (ii) any and all amounts paid by
      such Covered Person, with the Company's approval, in settlement thereof, or paid by such Covered Person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against such Covered Person; provided that the Company shall have the right, at its own expense, to assume

  
    2

    
      


  

  

  

  and defend any such action, suit or proceeding and, once the Company gives notice of its intent to assume the defense, the
      Company shall have sole control over such defense with counsel of the Company's choice.  The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be available to a Covered Person to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment or
      other final adjudication, in either case not subject to further appeal, determines that the acts or omissions of such Covered Person giving rise to the indemnification claim resulted from such Covered Person's bad faith, fraud or willful criminal act
      or omission or that such right of indemnification is otherwise prohibited by law or by the Company's articles of incorporation or by-laws (in each case, as amended and/or restated).  The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of
      any other rights of indemnification to which Covered Persons may be entitled under the Company's articles of incorporation or by-laws (in each case, as amended and/or restated), as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any other power that the Company
      may have to indemnify such Persons or hold them harmless.

  (d) Delegation of Authority to Senior Officers.  The
      Administrator may, in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 1.2(b), delegate, on such terms and conditions as it determines, to one or more senior officers of the Company the authority to make grants of Awards to employees of the
      Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined below) (including any such prospective employee) and consultants of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

  (e) Award Grants.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
      contained herein, the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards to Non-Employee Directors or administer the Plan with respect to such Awards, in which event the Board shall have all the authority and
      responsibility granted to the Administrator herein with respect to such Awards.  In determining Awards to be granted under the Plan, the Administrator shall take into account such factors as it deem advisable, which may include taking into account
      the Company's performance, the Award recipient's performance, and/or the satisfaction of any performance goals or targets as may established from time to time.

  
    
      	1.3	
              Persons Eligible for Awards

            


    

  

  The Persons eligible to receive Awards under the Plan are those directors, officers and employees
      (including any prospective officer or employee) of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and consultants and service providers (including individuals who are employed by or provide services to any entity that is itself such a consultant or
      service provider) to the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates (collectively, "Key Persons") as the Administrator shall select.

  
    
      	1.4	
              Types of Awards

            


    

  

  Awards may be made under the Plan in the form of (a) "incentive stock options" that are intended to
      qualify for special U.S. federal income tax treatment pursuant to Sections 421 and 422 of the Code (as defined below), as may be amended from time to time, or pursuant to a successor provision of the Code, and which is so designated in the applicable
      Award Agreement, (b) non-qualified stock options (i.e., any stock options granted under the Plan that are not "incentive stock options"), (c) stock appreciation

  
    3

    
      


  

  

  

  rights, (d) restricted stock, (e) restricted stock units and (f) unrestricted stock, all as more fully set forth in the
      Plan.  The term "Award" means any of the foregoing that are granted under the Plan. No incentive stock option (other than an incentive stock option that may be assumed or issued by the Company in connection with a transaction to which Section 424(a)
      of the Code applies) may be granted under the Plan to a Person who is not eligible to receive an incentive stock option under the Code.

  
    
      	1.5	
              Shares Available for Awards; Adjustments for Changes in Capitalization

            


    

  

  (a) Maximum Number.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section
      1.5(c), the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $.0001 ("Common Stock"), with respect to which Awards may at any time be granted under the Plan shall be 3,000,000.The following shares of Common Stock shall again
      become available for Awards under the Plan: (i) any shares that are subject to an Award under the Plan and that remain unissued upon the cancellation or termination of such Award for any reason whatsoever; (ii) any shares of restricted stock
      forfeited pursuant to the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement; provided that any dividend equivalent rights with respect to such shares that have not
      theretofore been directly remitted to the grantee are also forfeited; and (iii) any shares in respect of which an Award is settled for cash without the delivery of shares to the grantee.  Any shares tendered or withheld to satisfy the grant or
      exercise price or tax withholding obligation pursuant to any Award shall again become available to be delivered pursuant to Awards under the Plan.

  (b) Source of Shares.  Shares issued pursuant to the Plan may be
      authorized but unissued Common Stock or treasury shares.  The Administrator may direct that any stock certificate evidencing shares issued pursuant to the Plan shall bear a legend setting forth such restrictions on transferability as may apply to
      such shares.

  (c) Adjustments.  (i)  In the event that any dividend or other
      distribution (whether in the form of cash, Company shares, other securities or other property), stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, combination, repurchase or exchange of Company shares or other
      securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Company shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, other than an Equity Restructuring (as defined below), affects the Company
      shares such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to an Award, then the
      Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of the number of shares or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted under the
      Plan, including the maximum number of shares issuable to an individual as set forth in Section 1.5(d).

  (ii) The Administrator is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or
      nonrecurring events (including the events described in Section 1.5(c)(i) or the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined below), other than an Equity Restructuring) affecting the Company, any Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Company
      or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements of any

  
    4

    
      


  

  

  

  governmental body or securities exchange, accounting principles or law, whenever the Administrator determines that such
      adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to an Award, including providing for (A) adjustment to (1) the number of shares
      or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards or to which outstanding Awards relate and (2) the Exercise Price (as defined below) with respect to any Award and (B) a substitution
      or assumption of Awards, accelerating the exercisability or vesting of, or lapse of restrictions on, Awards, or accelerating the termination of Awards by providing for a period of time for exercise prior to the occurrence of such event, or, if deemed
      appropriate or desirable, providing for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award in consideration for the cancellation of such Award (it being understood that, in such event, any option or stock appreciation right having a per share
      Exercise Price equal to, or in excess of, the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of a share subject to such option or stock appreciation right may be cancelled and terminated without any payment or consideration therefor); provided, however, that with respect to options and stock appreciation rights, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, such adjustment shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 424(h) of the Code.

  (iii) In the event of (A) a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, (B) a sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets or (C) a merger,
      reorganization or consolidation involving the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (as defined below), the Administrator shall have the power to:

  (1)  provide that outstanding options, stock appreciation rights and/or restricted stock units
      (including any related dividend equivalent right) shall either continue in effect, be assumed or an equivalent award shall be substituted therefor by the successor corporation or a parent corporation or subsidiary corporation;

  (2)  cancel, effective immediately prior to the occurrence of such event, options, stock appreciation
      rights and/or restricted stock units (including each dividend equivalent right related thereto) outstanding immediately prior to such event (whether or not then exercisable) and, in full consideration of such cancellation, pay to the holder of such
      Award a cash payment in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value (as of a date specified by the Administrator) of the shares subject to such Award over the aggregate Exercise Price of such Award (it being understood that, in
      such event, any option or stock appreciation right having a per share Exercise Price equal to, or in excess of, the Fair Market Value of a share subject to such option or stock appreciation right may be cancelled and terminated without any payment or
      consideration therefor); or

  (3)  notify the holder of an option or stock appreciation right in writing or electronically that each
      option and stock appreciation right shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of 30 days from the date of such notice, or such shorter period as the Administrator may determine to be reasonable, and the option or stock appreciation right
      shall terminate upon the expiration of such period (which period shall expire no later than immediately prior to the consummation of the corporate transaction).

  
    5

    
      


  

  

  

  (iv) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.5(c):

  (A) The number and type of securities or other property subject to each outstanding Award and the Exercise Price or grant price
      thereof, if applicable, shall be equitably adjusted; and

  (B) The Administrator shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Administrator may deem appropriate to reflect such Equity
      Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations set forth in Sections 1.5(a) and 1.5(d)).  The adjustments provided under this
      Section 1.5(c)(iv) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected participant and the Company.

  (d) Individual Limit.  Except for the limits set forth in this
      Section 1.5, no provision of this Plan shall be deemed to limit the number or value of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Administrator may make Awards to any Key Person.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 1.5(c), the total
      number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which incentive stock options may be granted under the Plan to any one employee of the Company or a "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation" (as such terms are defined in Section 424 of the
      Code) of the Company during any one calendar year shall not exceed 3,125,000.  Incentive stock options granted and subsequently cancelled or deemed to be cancelled (e.g.,
      as a result of re-pricing) in a calendar year count against the limit in the preceding sentence even after their cancellation.

      dismissal from Board membership, for purposes of the Plan, the term "for Cause" shall be defined as follows:

  (i) if there is an employment, severance, consulting, service, change in control or other agreement governing the relationship between the grantee, on the

      Awards Under The Plan

  
    
      	2.1	
              Agreements Evidencing Awards

            


    

  

  Each Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written certificate ("Award Agreement"),
      which shall contain such provisions as the Administrator may deem necessary or desirable and which may, but need not, require execution or acknowledgment by a grantee.  The Award shall be subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan and the
      applicable Award Agreement.

  
    
      	2.2	
              Grant of Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

            


    

  

  (a) Stock Option Grants.  The Administrator may grant
      non-qualified stock options and/or incentive stock options (collectively, "options") to purchase shares of Common Stock from the Company to such Key Persons, and in such amounts and subject to such vesting and forfeiture provisions and other terms
      and conditions, as the Administrator shall determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan.  Except to the extent otherwise specifically provided in the applicable Award Agreement, no option will be treated as an "incentive stock option" for
      purposes of the Code.  Incentive stock options may be granted to employees of the Company and any "parent corporation" or "subsidiary corporation" (as such terms are defined in Section 424 of the Code) of the Company.  In the case of incentive stock
      options, the terms and conditions of such Awards shall be subject to such applicable rules as may be prescribed by Sections 421, 422 and 424 of the Code and any regulations related thereto, as may be amended from time to time.  If an option is
      intended to be an incentive stock option, and if for any reason such option (or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an incentive stock option for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, then, to the extent of such non-qualification, such option
      (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a non-qualified stock option appropriately granted under the Plan; provided that such option (or portion thereof)
      otherwise complies with the Plan's requirements relating to option Awards.  It shall be the intent of the Administrator to not grant an Award in the form of stock options to any

  
    9

    
      


  

  

  

  Key Person who is then subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to such Award if the Common
      Stock (as defined below) underlying such Award does not then qualify as "service recipient stock" for purposes of Section 409A.  Furthermore, it shall be the intent of the Administrator, in granting options to Key Persons who are subject to Section
      409A and/or 457 of the Code, to structure such options so as to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and/or 457 of the Code, as applicable.

  (b) Stock Appreciation Right Grants; Types of Stock Appreciation Rights. 
      The Administrator may grant stock appreciation rights to such Key Persons, and in such amounts and subject to such vesting and forfeiture provisions and other terms and conditions, as the Administrator shall determine, subject to the provisions of
      the Plan.  The terms of a stock appreciation right may provide that it shall be automatically exercised for a payment upon the happening of a specified event that is outside the control of the grantee and that it shall not be otherwise exercisable. 
      Stock appreciation rights may be granted in connection with all or any part of, or independently of, any option granted under the Plan.  It shall be the intent of the Administrator to not grant an Award in the form of stock appreciation rights to any
      Key Person (i) who is then subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to such Award if the Common Stock underlying such Award does not then qualify as "service recipient stock" for purposes of Section 409A or (ii) if such
      Award would create adverse tax consequences for such Key Person under Section 457A of the Code.

  (c) Nature of Stock Appreciation Rights.  The grantee of a stock
      appreciation right shall have the right, subject to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, to receive from the Company an amount equal to (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of
      the stock appreciation right over the Exercise Price of the stock appreciation right, multiplied by (ii) the number of shares with respect to which the stock appreciation right is exercised.  Each Award Agreement with respect to a stock appreciation
      right shall set forth the Exercise Price of such Award and, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Award Agreement, the Exercise Price of a stock appreciation right shall equal the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of
      grant; provided that in no event may such Exercise Price be less than the greater of (A) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant
      and (B) the par value of a share of Common Stock.  Payment upon exercise of a stock appreciation right shall be in cash or in shares of Common Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the stock appreciation right) or any
      combination of both, all as the Administrator shall determine.  Repricing of stock appreciation rights granted under the Plan shall not be permitted (1) to the extent such action could cause adverse tax consequences to the grantee under Sections 409A
      or 457A of the Code or (2) without prior shareholder approval, to the extent such approval would be required to be obtained by the Company pursuant to the applicable rules of any applicable stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, and
      any action that would be deemed to result in a Repricing of a stock appreciation right shall be deemed null and void if it would cause such adverse tax consequences or if any requisite shareholder approval related thereto is not obtained prior to the
      effective time of such action.  Upon the exercise of a stock appreciation right granted in connection with an option, the number of shares subject to the option shall be reduced by the number of shares with respect to which the stock appreciation
      right is

  
    10

    
      


  

  

  

  exercised.  Upon the exercise of an option in connection with which a stock appreciation right has been granted, the
      number of shares subject to the stock appreciation right shall be reduced by the number of shares with respect to which the option is exercised.

  (d) Option Exercise Price.  Each Award Agreement with respect to
      an option shall set forth the Exercise Price of such Award and, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Award Agreement, the Exercise Price of an option shall equal the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant; provided that in no event may such Exercise Price be less than the greater of (i) the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant and (ii)
      the par value of a share of Common Stock.  Repricing of options granted under the Plan shall not be permitted (1) to the extent such action could cause adverse tax consequences to the grantee under Sections 409A or 457A of the Code or (2) without
      prior shareholder approval, to the extent such approval would be required to be obtained by the Company pursuant to the applicable rules of any applicable stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed, and any action that would be deemed to
      result in a Repricing of an option shall be deemed null and void if it would cause such adverse tax consequences or if any requisite shareholder approval related thereto is not obtained prior to the effective time of such action.

  
    
      	2.3	
              Exercise of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

            


    

  

  Subject to the other provisions of this Article II and the Plan, each option and stock appreciation
      right granted under the Plan shall be exercisable as follows:

  (a) Timing and Extent of Exercise.  Options and stock
      appreciation rights shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the corresponding Award Agreement, but in no event shall any portion of such Award be exercisable subsequent to the
      tenth anniversary of the date on which such Award was granted.  Unless the applicable Award Agreement otherwise provides, an option or stock appreciation right may be exercised from time to time as to all or part of the shares as to which such Award
      is then exercisable.

  (b) Notice of Exercise.  An option or stock appreciation right
      shall be exercised by the filing of a written notice with the Company or the Company's designated exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent"), on such form and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe.

  (c) Payment of Exercise Price.  Any written notice of exercise of
      an option shall be accompanied by payment for the shares being purchased.  Such payment shall be made: (i) by certified or official bank check (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Company or its Exchange Agent) for the full option Exercise
      Price; (ii) with the consent of the Administrator, which consent shall be given or withheld in the sole discretion of the Administrator, by delivery of shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value (determined as of the exercise date) equal to
      all or part of the option Exercise Price and a certified or official bank check (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Company or its Exchange Agent) for any remaining portion of the full option Exercise Price; or (iii) at the sole discretion
      of the Administrator and to the extent permitted by law, by such other provision, consistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator may

  
    11

    
      


  

  

  

  from time to time prescribe (whether directly or indirectly through the Exchange Agent), or by any combination of the
      foregoing payment methods.

  (d) Delivery of Certificates Upon Exercise.  Subject to Sections
      3.2, 3.4 and 3.13, promptly after receiving payment of the full option Exercise Price, or after receiving notice of the exercise of a stock appreciation right for which the Administrator determines payment will be made partly or entirely in shares,
      the Company or its Exchange Agent shall (i) deliver to the grantee, or to such other Person as may then have the right to exercise the Award, a certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock for which the Award has been exercised or, in
      the case of stock appreciation rights, for which the Administrator determines will be made in shares or (ii) establish an account evidencing ownership of the stock in uncertificated form.  If the method of payment employed upon an option exercise so
      requires, and if applicable law permits, an optionee may direct the Company or its Exchange Agent, as the case may be, to deliver the stock certificate(s) to the optionee's stockbroker.

  (e) No Stockholder Rights.  No grantee of an option or stock
      appreciation right (or other Person having the right to exercise such Award) shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares subject to such Award until the issuance of a stock certificate to such Person for such
      shares.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.5(c), no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights (whether ordinary or extraordinary, and whether in cash, securities or other property) for which the record date is
      prior to the date such stock certificate is issued.

  
    
      	2.4	
              Termination of Employment; Death Subsequent to a Termination of Employment

            


    

  

  (a) General Rule.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in
      paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section 2.4 or Section 3.5(b)(iii), a grantee who incurs a termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board may exercise any outstanding option or stock
      appreciation right on the following terms and conditions: (i) exercise may be made only to the extent that the grantee was entitled to exercise the Award on the date of termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from
      the Board, as applicable; and (ii) exercise must occur within three months after termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board but in no event after the original expiration date of the Award.

  (b) Dismissal "for Cause".  If a grantee incurs a termination of
      employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board "for Cause", all options and stock appreciation rights not theretofore exercised shall immediately terminate upon the grantee's termination of employment or
      consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board.

  (c) Retirement.  If a grantee incurs a termination of employment
      or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board as the result of his or her Retirement, then any outstanding option or stock appreciation right shall, to the extent exercisable at the time of such Retirement, remain exercisable for a
      period of three years

  
    12

    
      


  

  

  

  after such Retirement; provided
      that in no event may such option or stock appreciation right be exercised following the original expiration date of the Award.

  (d) Disability.  If a grantee incurs a termination of employment
      or consultancy/service relationship or a dismissal from the Board by reason of a Disability, then any outstanding option or stock appreciation right shall, to the extent exercisable at the time of such termination or dismissal, remain exercisable for
      a period of one year after such termination or dismissal; provided that in no event may such option or stock appreciation right be exercised following the
      original expiration date of the Award.

  (e) Death.

  (i) Termination of Employment as a Result of Grantee's
        Death.  If a grantee incurs a termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or leaves the Board as the result of his or her death, then any outstanding option or stock appreciation right shall, to the extent exercisable at
      the time of such death, remain exercisable for a period of one year after such death; provided that in no event may such option or stock appreciation right be
      exercised following the original expiration date of the Award.

  (ii) Restrictions on Exercise Following Death.  Any
      such exercise of an Award following a grantee's death shall be made only by the grantee's executor or administrator or other duly appointed representative reasonably acceptable to the Administrator, unless the grantee's will specifically disposes of
      such Award, in which case such exercise shall be made only by the recipient of such specific disposition.  If a grantee's personal representative or the recipient of a specific disposition under the grantee's will shall be entitled to exercise any
      Award pursuant to the preceding sentence, such representative or recipient shall be bound by all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement which would have applied to the grantee.

  (f) Administrator Discretion.  The Administrator may, in writing,
      waive or modify the application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4.

  
    
      	2.5	
              Transferability of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

            


    

  

  Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement evidencing an
      option or stock appreciation right, during the lifetime of a grantee, each such Award granted to a grantee shall be exercisable only by the grantee, and no such Award may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of
      other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  The Administrator may, in any applicable Award Agreement evidencing an option or stock appreciation right, permit a grantee to transfer all or some of the options or stock appreciation
      rights to (a) the grantee's spouse, children or grandchildren ("Immediate Family Members"), (b) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of such Immediate Family Members or (c) other parties approved by the Administrator.  Following any such
      transfer, any transferred options and stock appreciation rights shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to the transfer.

  
    13

    
      


  

  

  

  
    
      	2.6	
              Grant of Restricted Stock

            


    

  

  (a) Restricted Stock Grants.  The Administrator may grant
      restricted shares of Common Stock to such Key Persons, in such amounts and subject to such vesting and forfeiture provisions and other terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan.  A grantee of a
      restricted stock Award shall have no rights with respect to such Award unless such grantee accepts the Award within such period as the Administrator shall specify by accepting delivery of a restricted stock Award Agreement in such form as the
      Administrator shall determine and, in the event the restricted shares are newly issued by the Company, makes payment to the Company or its Exchange Agent by certified or official bank check (or the equivalent thereof acceptable to the Administrator)
      in an amount at least equal to the par value of the shares covered by the Award (which payment may be waived at the time of grant of the restricted stock Award to the extent the restricted shares granted hereunder are otherwise deemed to be fully
      paid and non-assessable).

  (b) Issuance of Stock Certificate.  Promptly after a grantee
      accepts a restricted stock Award in accordance with Section 2.6(a), subject to Sections 3.2, 3.4 and 3.13, the Company or its Exchange Agent shall issue to the grantee a stock certificate or stock certificates for the shares of Common Stock covered
      by the Award or shall establish an account evidencing ownership of the stock in uncertificated form.  Upon the issuance of such stock certificates, or establishment of such account, the grantee shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to
      the restricted stock, subject to: (i) the nontransferability restrictions and forfeiture provisions described in the Plan (including paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.6); (ii) in the Administrator's sole discretion, a requirement, as set forth
      in the Award Agreement, that any dividends paid on such shares shall be held in escrow and, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, shall remain forfeitable until all restrictions on such shares have lapsed; and (iii) any other restrictions
      and conditions contained in the applicable Award Agreement.

  (c) Custody of Stock Certificate.  Unless the Administrator shall
      otherwise determine, any stock certificates issued evidencing shares of restricted stock shall remain in the possession of the Company until such shares are free of any restrictions specified in the applicable Award Agreement.  The Administrator may
      direct that such stock certificates bear a legend setting forth the applicable restrictions on transferability.

  (d) Nontransferability.  Except as otherwise specifically
      provided in this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement evidencing a restricted stock Award, shares of restricted stock granted under the Plan may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of prior to the lapsing
      of all restrictions thereon.  The Administrator at the time of grant shall specify the date or dates (which may depend upon or be related to the attainment of performance goals and other conditions) on which the nontransferability of the restricted
      stock shall lapse.  The Administrator may, in any applicable Award Agreement evidencing a restricted stock Award, permit a grantee to transfer all or some of the shares of restricted stock prior to the lapsing of all restrictions thereon to (i) the
      grantee's Immediate Family Members, (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of such Immediate Family Members or (iii) other parties approved by the Administrator.  Following any permitted transfer prior to the lapsing of all restrictions on
      the restricted stock, any transferred shares of restricted

  
    14

    
      


  

  

  

  stock shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to the transfer.

  (e) Consequence of Termination of Employment.  Unless otherwise
      set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, (i) a grantee's termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement shall cause the immediate forfeiture of
      all shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested as of the date of such termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board and (ii) if a grantee incurs a termination of employment or consultancy/service
      relationship or dismissal from the Board as the result of his or her death, Disability or Retirement, all shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested as of the date of such termination or departure from the Board shall immediately vest as of
      such date.  Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, all dividends paid on shares forfeited under this Section 2.6(e) that have not theretofore been directly remitted to the grantee shall also be forfeited, whether by termination of any
      escrow arrangement under which such dividends are held or otherwise.  The Administrator may, in writing, waive or modify the application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.6(e).

  
    
      	2.7	
              Grant of Restricted Stock Units

            


    

  

  (a) Restricted Stock Unit Grants.  The Administrator may grant
      restricted stock units to such Key Persons, and in such amounts and subject to such vesting and forfeiture provisions and other terms and conditions, as the Administrator shall determine, subject to the provisions of the Plan.  A restricted stock
      unit granted under the Plan shall confer upon the grantee a right to receive from the Company, conditioned upon the occurrence of such vesting event as shall be determined by the Administrator and specified in the Award Agreement, the number of such
      grantee's restricted stock units that vest upon the occurrence of such vesting event multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of vesting.  Payment upon vesting of a restricted stock unit shall be in cash or in shares
      of Common Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of vesting) or both, all as the Administrator shall determine, and such payments shall be made to the grantee at such time as provided in the Award Agreement, which the Administrator
      shall intend to be (i) if Section 409A of the Code is applicable to the grantee, within the period required by Section 409A such that it qualifies as a "short-term deferral" pursuant to Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder,
      unless the Administrator shall provide for deferral of the Award intended to comply with Section 409A, (ii) if Section 457A of the Code is applicable to the grantee, within the period required by Section 457A(d)(3)(B) such that it qualifies for the
      exemption thereunder, or (iii) if Sections 409A and 457A of the Code are not applicable to the grantee, at such time as determined by the Administrator.

  (b) Dividend Equivalents.  The Administrator may include in any
      Award Agreement with respect to a restricted stock unit a dividend equivalent right entitling the grantee to receive amounts equal to the ordinary dividends that would be paid, during the time such Award is outstanding and unvested, on the shares of
      Common Stock underlying such Award if such shares were then outstanding.  In the event such a provision is included in a Award Agreement, the Administrator shall determine whether such payments shall be (i) paid to the holder of the Award, as
      specified in the Award

  
    15

    
      


  

  

  

  Agreement, either (A) at the same time as the underlying dividends are paid, regardless of the fact that the restricted
      stock unit has not theretofore vested, or (B) at the time at which the Award's vesting event occurs, conditioned upon the occurrence of the vesting event, (ii) made in cash, shares of Common Stock or other property and (iii) subject to such other
      vesting and forfeiture provisions and other terms and conditions as the Administrator shall deem appropriate and as shall be set forth in the Award Agreement.

  (c) Consequence of Termination of Employment.  Unless otherwise
      set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, (i) a grantee's termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board for any reason other than death, Disability or Retirement shall cause the immediate forfeiture of
      all restricted stock units that have not yet vested as of the date of such termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board and (ii) if a grantee incurs a termination of employment or consultancy/service
      relationship or dismissal from the Board as the result of his or her death, Disability or Retirement, all restricted stock units that have not yet vested as of the date of such termination or departure from the Board shall immediately vest as of such
      date.  Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, any dividend equivalent rights on any restricted stock units forfeited under this Section 2.7(c) that have not theretofore been directly remitted to the grantee shall also be forfeited, whether
      by termination of any escrow arrangement under which such dividends are held or otherwise.  The Administrator may, in writing, waive or modify the application of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.7(c).

  (d) No Stockholder Rights.  No grantee of a restricted stock unit
      shall have any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such Award unless and until a stock certificate is issued with respect to such Award upon the vesting of such Award (it being understood that the Administrator shall
      determine whether to pay any vested restricted stock unit in the form of cash or Company shares or both), which issuance shall be subject to Sections 3.2, 3.4 and 3.13.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.5(c), no adjustment to any restricted
      stock unit shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights (whether ordinary or extraordinary, and whether in cash, securities or other property) for which the record date is prior to the date such stock certificate, if any, is issued.

  (e) Transferability of Restricted Stock Units.  Except as
      otherwise provided in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing a restricted stock unit, no restricted stock unit granted under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable.  The Administrator may, in any applicable Award Agreement evidencing a
      restricted stock unit, permit a grantee to transfer all or some of the restricted stock units to (i) the grantee's Immediate Family Members, (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of such Immediate Family Members or (iii) other parties
      approved by the Administrator.  Following any such transfer, any transferred restricted stock units shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to the transfer.

  
    
      	2.8	
              Grant of Unrestricted Stock

            


    

  

  The Administrator may grant (or sell at a purchase price at least equal to par value) shares of Common
      Stock free of restrictions under the Plan to such Key Persons

  
    16

    
      


  

  

  

  and in such amounts and subject to such forfeiture provisions as the Administrator shall determine.  Shares may be thus
      granted or sold in respect of past services or other valid consideration.

  ARTICLE III

      Miscellaneous

  
    
      	3.1	
              Amendment of the Plan; Modification of Awards

            


    

  

  (a) Amendment of the Plan.  The Board may from time to time
      suspend, discontinue, revise or amend the Plan in any respect whatsoever, except that no such amendment shall materially impair any rights or materially increase any obligations under any Award theretofore made under the Plan without the consent of
      the grantee (or, upon the grantee's death, the Person having the right to exercise the Award).  For purposes of this Section 3.1, any action of the Board or the Administrator that in any way alters or affects the tax treatment of any Award shall not
      be considered to materially impair any rights of any grantee.

  (b) Stockholder Approval Requirement.  If (1) required by
      applicable rules or regulations of a national securities exchange or the SEC, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval with respect to any amendment to the Plan that (i) expands the types of Awards available under the Plan, (ii) materially
      increases the aggregate number of shares which may be issued under the Plan, except as permitted pursuant to Section 1.5(c), (iii) materially increases the benefits to participants under the Plan, including any material change to (A) permit, or that
      has the effect of, a Repricing of any outstanding Award, (B) reduce the price at which shares or options to purchase shares may be offered or (C) extend the duration of the Plan, or (iv) materially expands the class of Persons eligible to receive
      Awards under the Plan, or (2) the Administrator determines that it desires to retain the ability to grant incentive stock options under the Plan thereafter, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval with respect to any amendment to the Plan that
      (i) increases the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan or the individual limit set forth under Section 1.5(d) of the Plan (except, in each case, as permitted pursuant to Section 1.5(c)) or (ii) expands the class of Persons eligible to
      receive incentive stock options under the Plan.

  (c) Modification of Awards.  The Administrator may cancel any
      Award under the Plan.  The Administrator also may amend any outstanding Award Agreement, including, without limitation, by amendment which would: (i) accelerate the time or times at which the Award becomes unrestricted, vested or may be exercised;
      (ii) waive or amend any goals, restrictions or conditions set forth in the Award Agreement; or (iii) waive or amend the operation of Sections 2.4, 2.6(e) or 2.7(c) with respect to the termination of the Award upon termination of employment or
      consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board; provided, however,
      that no such amendment shall be made without shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement applicable to the Award.  However, any such cancellation or amendment (other than an amendment pursuant
      to Section 1.5, 3.5 or 3.16) that materially impairs the rights or materially increases the obligations of a grantee under an outstanding Award shall be made only with the consent of the grantee

  
    17

    
      


  

  

  

  (or, upon the grantee's death, the Person having the right to exercise the Award).  In making any modification to an Award
      (e.g., an amendment resulting in a direct or indirect reduction in the Exercise Price or a waiver or modification under Section 2.4(f), 2.6(e) or 2.7(c)), the
      Administrator may consider the implications, if any, of such modification under the Code with respect to incentive stock options granted under the Plan and/or Sections 409A and 457A of the Code with respect to Awards granted under the Plan to
      individuals subject to such provisions of the Code.

  
    
      	3.2	
              Consent Requirement

            


    

  

  (a) No Plan Action Without Required Consent.  If the
      Administrator shall at any time determine that any Consent (as defined below) is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the granting of any Award under the Plan, the issuance or purchase of shares or other rights thereunder,
      or the taking of any other action thereunder (each such action being hereinafter referred to as a "Plan Action"), then such Plan Action shall not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such Consent shall have been effected or obtained to the
      full satisfaction of the Administrator.

  (b) Consent Defined.  The term "Consent" as used herein with
      respect to any Plan Action means (i) any and all listings, registrations or qualifications in respect thereof upon any securities exchange or under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation, (ii) any and all written agreements and
      representations by the grantee with respect to the disposition of shares, or with respect to any other matter, which the Administrator shall deem necessary or desirable to comply with the terms of any such listing, registration or qualification or to
      obtain an exemption from the requirement that any such listing, qualification or registration be made and (iii) any and all consents, clearances and approvals in respect of a Plan Action by any governmental or other regulatory bodies.

  
    
      	3.3	
              Nonassignability

            


    

  

  Except as provided in Sections 2.4(e), 2.5, 2.6(d) or 2.7(e), (a) no Award or right granted to any Person under the Plan or under any Award Agreement shall be assignable or transferable other than by will or by the laws of
      descent and distribution and (b) all rights granted under the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be exercisable during the life of the grantee only by the grantee or the grantee's legal representative or the grantee's permissible successors or assigns
      (as authorized and determined by the Administrator).  All terms and conditions of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreements will be binding upon any permitted successors or assigns.

  
    
      	3.4	
              Taxes

            


    

  

  (a) Withholding.  A grantee or other Award holder under the Plan
      shall be required to pay, in cash, to the Company, and the Company and its Affiliates shall have the right and are hereby authorized to withhold from any Award, from any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan or from any
      compensation or other amount owing to such grantee or other Award holder, the amount of any applicable withholding taxes in respect of an Award, its grant, its exercise, its vesting, or any payment or transfer under an Award or under the Plan, and to
      take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for payment of

  
    18

    
      


  

  

  

  such taxes.  Whenever shares of Common Stock are to be delivered pursuant to an Award under the Plan, with the approval of
      the Administrator, which the Administrator shall have sole discretion whether or not to give, the grantee may satisfy the foregoing condition by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery shares having a value equal to the amount of minimum
      tax required to be withheld.  Such shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date on which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined.  Fractional share amounts shall be settled in cash.  Such a withholding election may be made
      with respect to all or any portion of the shares to be delivered pursuant to an Award as may be approved by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

  (b) Liability for Taxes.  Grantees and holders of Awards are
      solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may arise in connection with Awards (including, without limitation, any taxes arising under Sections 409A and 457A of the Code) and the Company shall not have any
      obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any such Person harmless from any or all of such taxes.  The Administrator shall have the discretion to organize any deferral program, to require deferral election forms, and to grant or, notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement, to unilaterally modify any Award in a manner that (i) conforms with the requirements of Sections 409A and 457A of the Code (to the extent applicable), (ii) voids any participant election to
      the extent it would violate Sections 409A or 457A of the Code (to the extent applicable) and (iii) for any distribution event or election that could be expected to violate Section 409A of the Code, make the distribution only upon the earliest of the
      first to occur of a "permissible distribution event" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code or a distribution event that the participant elects in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.  The Administrator shall have the sole discretion to
      interpret the requirements of the Code, including, without limitation, Sections 409A and 457A, for purposes of the Plan and all Awards.

  (i) any "person" (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the 1934 Act), company or other entity (other than (A) the Company, (B) any trustee or other fiduciary
      holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or an Affiliate, (C) any company or other entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the holders of the voting stock of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their

      Shipholding Inc., or Claudia Restis directly or indirectly "controls" (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the 1934 Act)) acquires "beneficial ownership" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the
      aggregate voting power of the capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the Company;

  
    19

    
      


  

  

  

  (ii) the sale of all or substantially all the Company's assets in one or more related transactions to any "person" (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the
      1934 Act), company or other entity, other than such a sale (A) to a Subsidiary which does not involve a material change in the equity holdings of the Company, (B) to an entity which has acquired all or substantially all the Company's assets or (C)
      Jelco Delta Holding Corp., Comet Shipholding Inc., or Claudia Restis or any entity which Jelco Delta Holding Corp., Comet Shipholding Inc. or Claudia Restis directly or indirectly "controls" (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the 1934 Act) (any such
      entity described in clause (A), (B) or (C), the "Acquiring Entity") if, immediately following such sale, 50% or more of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the Acquiring Entity (or, if applicable,
      the ultimate parent entity that directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the Acquiring Entity) is beneficially owned by the holders
      of the voting stock of the Company, and such voting power among the persons who were holders of the voting stock of the Company immediately prior to such sale is, immediately following such sale, held in substantially the same proportions as the
      aggregate voting power of the capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the Company immediately prior to such sale;

  (iii) any merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event of the Company or any Subsidiary as a result of which the holders of the voting stock of the
      Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation, reorganization or similar event do not directly or indirectly hold 50% or more of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock of the surviving entity ordinarily entitled to elect directors
      of the surviving entity (or, if applicable, the ultimate parent entity that directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of the capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the surviving
      entity) and such voting power among the persons who were holders of the voting stock of the Company immediately prior to such sale is, immediately following such sale, held in substantially the same proportions as the aggregate voting power of the
      capital stock ordinarily entitled to elect directors of the Company immediately prior to such sale;

  (iv) the approval by the Company's stockholders of a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or

  (v) during any period of 12 consecutive calendar months, individuals:

            	(B)	
              whose election or nomination for election to the Board was recommended or approved by at least a majority of the directors then still in office who were
                  directors of the Company on the first day of such period, or whose election or nomination for election were so approved,

            


    

  

  shall cease to constitute a majority of the Board.

  
    20

    
      


  

  

  

  Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, for each Award subject to
      Section 409A of the Code, a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred under this Plan with respect to such Award only if a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of
      the assets of the Company shall also be deemed to have occurred under Section 409A of the Code, provided that such limitation shall apply to such Award only
      to the extent necessary to avoid adverse tax effects under Section 409A of the Code.

  (b) Effect of a Change in Control.  Unless the Administrator
      provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control:

  (i) notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, any Award then outstanding shall become fully vested and any restriction and forfeiture provisions
      thereon imposed pursuant to the Plan and the Award Agreement shall lapse and any Award in the form of an option or stock appreciation right shall be immediately exercisable;

  (ii) to the extent permitted by law and not otherwise limited by the terms of the Plan, the Administrator may amend any Award Agreement in such manner as it
      deems appropriate;

  (iii) a grantee who incurs a termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board for any reason, other than a
      termination or dismissal "for Cause", concurrent with or within one year following the Change in Control may exercise any outstanding option or stock appreciation right, but only to the extent that the grantee was entitled to exercise the Award on
      the date of his or her termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board, until the earlier of (A) the original expiration date of the Award and (B) the later of (x) the date provided for under the terms of
      Section 2.4 without reference to this Section 3.5(b)(iii) and (y) the first anniversary of the grantee's termination of employment or consultancy/service relationship or dismissal from the Board.

  (c) Miscellaneous.  Whenever deemed appropriate by the
      Administrator, any action referred to in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section 3.5 may be made conditional upon the consummation of the applicable Change in Control transaction.  For purposes of the Plan and any Award Agreement granted hereunder, the
      term "Company" shall include any successor to Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corporation.

  
    
      	3.6	
              Operation and Conduct of Business

            


    

  

  Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be construed as limiting or preventing the Company or
      any Affiliate from taking any action with respect to the operation and conduct of their business that they deem appropriate or in their best interests, including any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, exchanges or other changes
      in the capital structure of the Company or any Affiliate, any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Affiliate, any issuance of Company shares or other securities or subscription rights, any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior
      preference stock ahead of or affecting the Common Stock or other securities or rights

  thereof, any dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, any sale or transfer of all or any part of the
      assets or business of the Company or any Affiliate, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

  
    
      	3.7	
              No Rights to Awards

            


    

  

  No Key Person or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan.

  
    
      	3.8	
              Right of Discharge Reserved

            


    

  

  Nothing in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any grantee the right to continue his
      or her employment with the Company or any Affiliate, his or her consultancy/service relationship with the Company or any Affiliate, or his or her position as a director of the Company or any Affiliate, or affect any right that the Company or any
      Affiliate may have to terminate such employment or consultancy/service relationship or service as a director.

  
    
      	3.9	
              Non-Uniform Determinations

            


    

  

  The Administrator's determinations and the treatment of Key Persons and grantees and their
      beneficiaries under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made and determined by the Administrator selectively among Persons who receive, or who are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan (whether or not such Persons are similarly situated). 
      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator shall be entitled, among other things, to make non-uniform and selective determinations, and to enter into non-uniform and selective Award Agreements, as to (a) the Persons to
      receive Awards under the Plan, (b) the types of Awards granted under the Plan, (c) the number of shares to be covered by, or with respect to which payments, rights or other matters are to be calculated with respect to, Awards and (d) the terms and
      conditions of Awards.

  
    
      	3.10	
              Other Payments or Awards

            


    

  

  Nothing contained in the Plan shall be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Company from making
      any award or payment to any Person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect.

  
    
      	3.11	
              Headings

            


    

  

  Any section, subsection, paragraph or other subdivision headings contained herein are for the purpose
      of convenience only and are not intended to expand, limit or otherwise define the contents of such subdivisions.

  
    
      	3.12	
              Effective Date and Term of Plan

            


    

  

  (a) Adoption; Stockholder Approval.  The Plan was adopted by the
      Board on January 12, 2011.  The Board may, but need not, make the granting of any Awards under the Plan subject to the approval of the Company's stockholders.

  (b) Termination of Plan.  The Board may terminate the Plan at any
      time.  All Awards made under the Plan prior to its termination shall remain in effect until such Awards have been satisfied or terminated in accordance with the terms and provisions of

  
    21

    
      


  

  

  

  the Plan and the applicable Award Agreements.  No Awards may be granted under the Plan following the tenth anniversary of
      the date on which the Plan was adopted by the Board.

  
    
      	3.13	
              Restriction on Issuance of Stock Pursuant to Awards

            


    

  

  The Company shall not permit any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under
      the Plan unless such shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable under applicable law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement, at the time of the exercise of any Award, at the time of vesting of any
      Award, at the time of payment of shares of Common Stock in exchange for, or in cancellation of, any Award, or at the time of grant of any unrestricted shares under the Plan, the Company and the Administrator may, if either shall deem it necessary or
      advisable for any reason, require the holder of an Award (a) to represent in writing to the Company that it is the Award holder's then-intention to acquire the shares with respect to which the Award is granted for investment and not with a view to
      the distribution thereof or (b) to postpone the date of exercise until such time as the Company has available for delivery to the Award holder a prospectus meeting the requirements of all applicable securities laws; and no shares shall be issued or transferred in connection with any Award unless and until all legal requirements applicable to the issuance or
      transfer of such shares have been complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and the Administrator.  The Company and the Administrator shall have the right to condition any issuance of shares to any Award holder hereunder on such Person's
      undertaking in writing to comply with such restrictions on the subsequent transfer of such shares as the Company or the Administrator shall deem necessary or advisable as a result of any applicable law, regulation or official interpretation thereof,
      and all share certificates delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Company or the Administrator may deem advisable under the Plan, the applicable Award Agreement or the rules, regulations
      and other requirements of the SEC, any stock exchange upon which such shares are listed, and any applicable securities or other laws, and certificates representing such shares may contain a legend to reflect any such restrictions.  The Administrator
      may refuse to issue or transfer any shares or other consideration under an Award if it determines that the issuance or transfer of such shares or other consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation or entitle the Company to recover the
      same under Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act, and any payment tendered to the Company by a grantee or other Award holder in connection with the exercise of such Award shall be promptly refunded to the relevant grantee or other Award holder.  Without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Award granted under the Plan shall be construed as an offer to sell securities of the Company, and no such offer shall be outstanding, unless and until the Administrator has determined that any such offer,
      if made, would be in compliance with all applicable requirements of any applicable securities laws.

  3.14 Requirement of Notification of Election Under Section 83(b) of the Code or Upon Disqualifying Disposition Under Section 421(b) of the
      Code

  (a) Notification of Election Under Section 83(b) of the Code.  If
      an Award recipient, in connection with the acquisition of Company shares under the Plan, makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code (to include in gross income in the year of

  
    22

    
      


  

  

  

  transfer the amounts specified in Section 83(b) of the Code), the grantee shall notify the Administrator of such election
      within ten days of filing notice of the election with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to regulations issued under Section 83(b) of the Code.

  (b) Notification of Disqualifying Disposition of Incentive Stock Options. 
      If an Award recipient shall make any disposition of Company shares delivered pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option under the circumstances described in Section 421(b) of the Code (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions) or any
      successor provision of the Code, the grantee shall notify the Company of such disposition within ten days thereof.

  
    
      	3.15	
              Severability

            


    

  

  If any provision of the Plan or any Award is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or
      unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Administrator, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws or,
      if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Administrator, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of
      the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

  
    
      	3.16	
              Sections 409A and 457A

            


    

  

  To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with
      Sections 409A and 457A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or any applicable Award Agreement to the contrary, in the event that the
      Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A or 457A of the Code, the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments,
      policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to (i) exempt the Plan and Award from Sections 409A and 457A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax
      treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (ii) comply with the requirements of Sections 409A and 457A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the application of penalty taxes under Sections
      409A and 457A of the Code.

  
    
      	3.17	
              Forfeiture; Clawback

            


    

  

  The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement that any
      realized gain with respect to options or stock appreciation rights and any realized value with respect to other Awards shall be subject to forfeiture or clawback, in the event of (a) a grantee's breach of any non-competition, non-solicitation,
      confidentiality or other restrictive covenants with respect to the Company or any Affiliate or (ii) a financial restatement that reduces the amount of bonus or incentive compensation

  
    23

    
      


  

  

  

  previously awarded to a grantee that would have been earned had results been properly reported.

  
    
      	3.18	
              No Trust or Fund Created

            


    

  

  Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any
      kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate and an Award recipient or any other Person.  To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right
      shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or its Affiliate.

  
    
      	3.19	
              No Fractional Shares

            


    

  

  No fractional shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the
      Administrator shall determine whether cash, other securities, or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated, or otherwise
      eliminated.

  
    
      	3.20	
              Governing Law

            


    

  

  The Plan will be construed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to principles of
      conflict of laws.
