this Plan that are subject solely to a future service requirement shall vest in four equal annual increments of 25%, with one increment vesting on each anniversary date of the Grant.

Option and specifying the number of shares of Spirit Airlines Stock which are to be purchased pursuant to the Option, and such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price of the shares for which the Option is being
exercised, by one or more of the methods provided for in the Plan. An attempt to exercise any Option granted hereunder other than as set forth in the Plan shall be invalid and of no force and effect.

financial reporting purposes. Such shares shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Exercise Price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise; or 

  
 A-4









 (iii) by any other method which the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law, may permit, including, but not limited to, any of the following: (A) through a “cashless exercise sale and remittance procedure” pursuant to which the Participant shall

sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable federal, state and local income, employment, excise, foreign and other taxes required to be withheld by the Company by reason of such
exercise and (2) to Spirit Airlines to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale; or (B) by any other method as may be permitted by the Committee.

provided in an Award Agreement, the terms and conditions (including, without limitation, the terms related to the Exercise Price, exercise period, repricing, vesting and termination) of the Stock Appreciation Right shall be substantially identical
(to the extent possible taking into account the differences related to the character of the Stock Appreciation Right) to the terms and conditions that would have been applicable under Section 6 above were the grant of the Stock Appreciation
Rights a grant of an Option.

by a Participant only by written notice delivered to Spirit Airlines pursuant to Section 15 (w), specifying the number of shares of Spirit Airlines Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised.

Right, the Participant or Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is applicable) shall be entitled to receive payment, in cash, in shares of Spirit Airlines Stock, or in a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in
its sole and absolute discretion. The amount of such payment shall be determined by multiplying the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of a share of Spirit Airlines Stock on the date of exercise over the Fair Market Value of a share of Spirit
Airlines Stock on the Grant Date, by the number of shares of Spirit Airlines Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Rights are then being exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may limit in any manner the amount payable
with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right by including such limitation in the Award Agreement.

requirement shall vest over the four-year period immediately following the Grant Date in equal annual increments of 25%, with one increment vesting on each anniversary date of the Grant Date. Shares of Restricted Stock subject to the attainment of
performance goals will be released from restrictions only after the attainment of such performance goals has been determined by the Committee. 
 (c) Certificates. Spirit Airlines shall issue and hold such shares of Restricted Stock for the benefit of the Participant. When shares of Restricted Stock vested, such shares shall no longer be
forfeitable and Spirit Airlines shall deliver the certificate evidencing such shares to the Participant and pay or distribute to the Participant all Dividend Equivalents and distributions held in escrow by Spirit Airlines with respect to such shares
of Restricted Stock. 
 (d) Shareholder Rights. Unless otherwise provided in the Plan or an Award Agreement, until the
expiration of all applicable restrictions: (i) the Restricted Stock shall be treated as outstanding; (ii) except as provided in Section 15(d), the Participant holding shares of Restricted Stock shall have all rights of a shareholder

outstanding Awards (whether vested or unvested) shall be subject to the rules of this Section. 
 (b) Termination for Reason
Other Than Cause, Disability or Death. If a Participant’s termination of employment or other service is for any reason other than death, Disability, Cause or a voluntary termination within ninety (90) days after occurrence of an event
which would be grounds for termination of employment or other service by the Company for Cause, all unvested Awards shall expire and all unvested shares of Restricted Stock held by the Participant and any dividends or distributions held in escrow by
the Company with respect to such unvested Restricted Stock shall be forfeited immediately and returned to the Company. Any Option held by Participant, to the extent exercisable at termination, may be exercised by the Participant at any time within
sixty (60) days after the date of such termination, but in no event after the termination of the Option pursuant to its terms. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, temporary absence from employment because of illness, vacation,
approved leaves of absence or military service shall not constitute a termination of employment or other service. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, the Committee may provide, in its sole and absolute discretion, that following
the termination of employment or other service of a Participant with the Company for any reason (i) any unvested Award held by the Participant shall vest in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or other
service, and/ or (ii) a Participant or the Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is applicable), may exercise an Option, in whole or in part, at any time subsequent to such termination of employment or other service and
prior to the termination of the Option pursuant to its terms. 
 (c) Termination by the Company without Cause prior to a
Change in Control. In the event a Participant’s employment or other service is terminated by the Company without Cause less than ninety (90) days prior to a Change in Control, such Participant shall be retroactively considered fully
vested as of the time of such termination in all Awards held at the time of such termination (“Post Termination Vested Awards”). Subject to the provisions of Section 11 of the Plan, Post Termination Vested Awards which are Options
shall be exercisable by the Participant at any time within sixty days (60) after the date such Options vest, but in no event after the termination of an Option pursuant to its terms. Post Termination Vested Awards shall not be subject to Spirit
Airlines’ right to repurchase Award Stock pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Plan but are subject to the Change in Control provisions in Section 11 of the Plan. 
 (d) Death or Disability. If a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company is by reason of death or Disability of such Participant, all unvested Awards shall
immediately vest. All Options held by such Participant shall be exercisable by the Participant’s estate, devisee or heir at law (whichever is applicable) for a period not to exceed one (1) year after the Participant’s death or
Disability, but in no event after the termination of the Option pursuant to its terms. 

  
 A-7









 (e) Termination for Cause. If a Participant’s termination of employment or other
service with the Company is for Cause or is a voluntary termination within ninety (90) days after occurrence of an event which would be grounds for termination of employment or other service by the Company for Cause (without regard to any
notice or cure period requirement), all vested and unvested Awards shall be forfeited and deemed and expired upon the date of such termination. 
  

	 	11.	CHANGE IN CONTROL OR INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING 

 (a) General. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control of Spirit Airlines, all Awards shall fully vest and any restrictions upon the transfer of
Spirit Airlines Stock contained in this Plan or any Award Agreement shall lapse. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, provide on a case by case basis (i) that all
Awards that can be exercised shall terminate, provided that Participants shall have the right, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control and during such reasonable period as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine
and designate, to exercise any Award, (ii) that Awards shall terminate, provided that Participants shall be entitled to a cash payment equal to the Change in Control Price with respect to shares subject to the Award net of the Exercise Price
thereof (if applicable), (iii) that, if a liquidation or dissolution of Spirit Airlines occurs in connection with a Change in Control, the Awards shall convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds net of the Exercise Price (if
applicable) and (iv) any combination of the foregoing. In the event that the Committee does not terminate or convert an Award upon a Change in Control, then the Company shall cause the Award to be assumed, or substantially equivalent Awards be
substituted, by the acquiring, or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof). Furthermore, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or an Initial Public Offering, all restrictions referred to in Sections 11(b) and 11(c) shall lapse with
respect to all Award Stock. 
 (b) Voting of Award Stock Upon Change in Control. If the Change in Control is structured
as (A) a merger or consolidation, each Participant (and each other holder of Award Stock) shall vote its Award Stock to approve such merger or consolidation, whether by written consent or at a stockholders meeting (as requested by the Required
Sponsors), and waive all dissenter’s rights, appraisal rights and similar rights in connection with such merger or consolidation, (B) a sale of stock, each Participant (and any other holders of Award Stock) shall agree to sell, and shall
sell, all of its Award Stock on the terms and conditions approved by the Required Sponsors, or (C) a sale of assets, each Participant (and any other holders of Award Stock) shall vote its Award Stock to approve such sale and any subsequent
liquidation of Spirit Airlines or other distribution of the proceeds therefrom, whether by written consent or at a stockholders meeting (as requested by the Required Sponsors). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Participant (and each other holder
of Award Stock) will (A) take all necessary or desirable actions reasonably requested by the Required Sponsors in connection with the consummation of Change in Control and (B) make the same representations and warranties, and enter into
such indemnities and agreements, as required by the Required Sponsors (subject to the limitations below), including without limitation, execution of the applicable purchase agreement and other agreements, and voting all Award Stock to approve such
transaction. In any Change in Control, (i) each Participant (and each other holder of Award Stock) shall be obligated to make representations and warranties as to such holder’s title to and ownership of Award Stock,


  
 A-8









 
authorization, execution and delivery of relevant documents by such holder, enforceability of relevant agreements against such holder and other matters relating to such holder, to agree to
transfer such holder’s Award Stock in connection with such Change in Control and to enter into indemnification obligations with respect to the foregoing, in each case to the extent that each of the Required Sponsors is similarly obligated;
provided that in no event shall any holder of Award Stock be liable in respect of any indemnity obligations pursuant to any Change in Control in an aggregate amount in excess of the total consideration payable to such holder in such Change in
Control. 
 (c) Initial Public Offering. In the event that the Board and the Required Sponsors approve an Initial Public
Offering, each Participant shall use reasonable efforts to take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of such Initial Public Offering (including the execution of a lock-up agreement), but only to the extent such
efforts and actions are customary for employees who are shareholders of a company undergoing a public offering. In the event that such Initial Public Offering is an underwritten offering and the managing underwriters advise Spirit Airlines in
writing that in their opinion the existing capital structure of Spirit Airlines will adversely affect the marketability of the offering, each Participant will consent to and vote for a recapitalization, reorganization and/or exchange of the Award
Stock into securities that the managing underwriters, the Board and the Required Sponsors find acceptable and will take all other necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the recapitalization, reorganization and/or
exchange; provided that the resulting securities reflect and are consistent with the rights and preferences among the outstanding classes of securities set forth in the certificate of incorporation of Spirit Airlines as in effect immediately prior
to such recapitalization, reorganization or exchange; provided further that all holders of Award Stock are treated similarly in proportion to their holdings of Award Stock. 
 (d) Conversion Upon Initial Public Offering. The Company will procure that, on or prior to the date of an Initial Public Offering, all stock underlying an Award and all Award Stock that is not of
the class of stock that is the subject of the Initial Public Offering shall convert to the class of stock that is the subject of the Initial Public Offering, pursuant to the Conversion Formula. 

 

	 	12.	CHANGE IN STATUS OF PARENT OR SUBSIDIARY 

 Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event that an entity or business unit which was previously a part of the Company is no longer a part of the
Company, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion: (i) provide on a case by case basis that some or all outstanding Awards held by a Participant employed by or performing service for such entity or business unit may become
immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any limitation imposed pursuant to this Plan; (ii) provide on a case by case basis that some or all outstanding Awards held by a Participant employed by or performing service for such entity
or business unit may remain outstanding, may continue to vest, and/or may remain exercisable for a period exceeding the existing term of such Awards, subject to the terms of the Award Agreement and this Plan; and/or (iii) treat the employment
or other services of a Participant employed by such entity or business unit as terminated if such Participant is not employed by Spirit Airlines or any entity that is a part of the Company immediately after such event.

 13.    SPIRIT AIRLINES’ RIGHT TO PURCHASE AWARD STOCK;
RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF AWARD STOCK; FORFEITABILITY OF AWARD STOCK UPON TERMINATION FOR CAUSE 
 (a) Spirit
Airlines’ Right to Purchase Award Stock. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, Spirit Airlines shall have the right to repurchase the Award Stock issued with respect to any Participant, following such Participant’s
termination of employment or service with the Company for any reason; provided, however, in the event the terms of this Section 13 are inconsistent with the terms of any stockholders’ agreement entered into by Spirit Airlines and the
Participant, the terms of the stockholders’ agreement shall govern. Unless the Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated by the Company for Cause, the price for repurchasing the Award Stock shall be equal to the
Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, as determined on the day of such termination. Should Spirit Airlines fail to exercise such repurchase right within sixty (60) days following the later of (i) the date of such Participant’s
termination of employment or service; (ii) if applicable, the date Participant exercises the Option; or (iii) if applicable, the date Restricted Stock is released from restrictions described in Section 8(b), Spirit Airlines shall be
deemed to have waived such right. Spirit Airlines shall deliver the applicable amount of the repurchase price to the Participant no later than five (5) days following the date Spirit Airlines provides the Participant with written notice of its
intent to exercise its right of repurchase pursuant to this Section 13(a). If an Initial Public Offering occurs, or Change in Control of Spirit Airlines or any parent of Spirit Airlines occurs, the repurchase provisions of this
Section 13(a) shall cease to be effective. To the extent Award Stock is purchased by Spirit Airlines pursuant to this Section 13(a) from a Participant who is terminated from employment or service by the Company without Cause less than
ninety (90) days prior to a Change in Control, then an adjustment to the purchase price of such Award Stock shall be made so that the repurchase price shall be equal to the Change in Control Price of such Award Stock. 

(b) Forfeitability of Award Stock Upon Termination for Cause. In the event the Participant’s employment or service with the
Company is terminated by the Company for Cause, all the Award Stock issued with respect to such Participant shall be forfeited. 

(c) Assignability of the Right to Purchase Award Stock. Spirit Airlines shall have full and unfettered right to assign its right
to purchase the Award Stock pursuant to this Section 13 to any of the Sponsors. 
  

	 	14.	REQUIREMENTS OF LAW 

 (a)
Violations of Law. The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Spirit Airlines Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the individual exercising the Award, the
Participant or the Company of any provisions of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and any other federal or state securities laws or regulations. Any good faith
determination in this connection by the Committee shall be 

  
 A-10









 
final, binding, and conclusive. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercisability or vesting of an Award, to cause the exercise of an Award or
the issuance of shares pursuant thereto, or to cause the grant of Award to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. 
 (b) Registration. At the time of any exercise or receipt of any Award, the Company may, if it shall determine it necessary or desirable for any reason, require the Participant (or
Participant’s heirs, legatees or legal representative, as the case may be), as a condition to the exercise or grant thereof, to deliver to the Company a written representation of present intention to hold the shares for their own account as an
investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of such shares, except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws with respect thereto. In the event such representation is required to be
delivered, an appropriate legend may be placed upon each certificate delivered to the Participant (or Participant’s heirs, legatees or legal representative, as the case may be) upon the Participant’s exercise of part or all of the Award or
receipt of an Award and a stop transfer order may be placed with the transfer agent. Each Award shall also be subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification
of the shares subject to the Award upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in connection with, the issuance or
purchase of the shares thereunder, the Award may not be exercised in whole or in part and the restrictions on an Award may not be removed unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free
of any conditions not acceptable to the Company in its sole discretion. The Participant shall provide the Company with any certificates, representations and information that the Company requests and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company in
obtaining any listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval that the Company deems necessary or appropriate. 
 (c)
Withholding. The Committee may make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Company is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether
federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with the grant or exercise of an Award, or the removal of restrictions on an Award including, but not limited to: (i) the withholding of delivery of shares of Spirit
Airlines Stock until the holder reimburses the Company for the amount the Company is required to withhold with respect to such taxes; (ii) the canceling of any number of shares of Spirit Airlines Stock issuable in an amount sufficient to
reimburse the Company for the amount it is required to so withhold; (iii) withholding the amount due from any such person’s wages or compensation due to such person; or (iv) requiring the Participant to pay the Company cash in the
amount the Company is required to withhold with respect to such taxes. 
 (d) Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed
by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. 
  

	 	15.	GENERAL PROVISIONS

Committee deems appropriate, provisions relating to confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and similar matters). The terms of each Award Agreement need not be identical for Eligible Individuals provided that all Award Agreements comply

Amended and Restated Spirit Airlines, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and in an Agreement entered into by and between the registered owner of such shares and the Spirit Airlines, Inc., (the “Company”), dated
                     (the “Award Agreement”). A copy of the Plan and the Award Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of the
Company.” 
 (c) Purchase Price. To the extent the purchase price of any Award granted hereunder is less than par
value of a share of Spirit Airlines Stock and such purchase price is not permitted by applicable law, the per share purchase price shall be deemed to be equal to the par value of a share of Spirit Airlines Stock. 

(d) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. Except as provided below with respect to Dividend Equivalents credited on Restricted
Stock, a Participant shall not be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred basis, cash or stock dividends, or cash payments in amounts equivalent to cash or stock dividends on shares of Spirit Airlines Stock covered by any Award until such
stock has been issued to the Participant and is fully vested. All cash or stock dividends which would otherwise be paid with respect to Restricted Stock shall be designated as Dividend Equivalents and held in escrow by Spirit Airlines (subject to
the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the underlying Award). Dividend Equivalents shall be distributed to the Participant when the underlying stock is distributed. No interest shall be paid on Dividend Equivalents.

 (e) Deferral of Awards. The Committee may from time to time establish procedures pursuant to which a Participant may
elect to defer, until a time or times later than the vesting of an Award, receipt of all or a portion of the shares of Spirit Airlines Stock or cash subject to such Award and to receive Spirit Airlines Stock or cash at such later time or times, all
on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine. The Committee shall not permit the deferral of an Award unless counsel for Spirit Airlines determines that such action will not result in adverse tax consequences to a Participant under
Section 409A of the Code. If any such deferrals are permitted, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Participant who elects to defer receipt of Spirit Airlines Stock shall not have any rights as a shareholder with respect to
deferred shares of Spirit Airlines Stock unless and until shares of Spirit Airlines Stock are actually delivered to the Participant with respect thereto, except to the extent otherwise determined by the Committee. 

  
 A-12









 (f) Prospective Employees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any Award
granted to a Prospective Employee shall not become vested prior to the date the Prospective Employee first becomes an employee of the Company. 
 (g) Issuance of Certificates; Shareholder Rights. Spirit Airlines shall deliver to the Participant a certificate evidencing the Participant’s ownership of shares of Spirit Airlines Stock
issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award as soon as administratively practicable after satisfaction of all conditions relating to the issuance of such shares. A Participant shall not have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to such
Spirit Airlines Stock prior to satisfaction of all conditions relating to the issuance of such Spirit Airlines Stock, and, except as expressly provided in the Plan, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights of any kind
for which the record date is prior to the date on which all such conditions have been satisfied. 
 (h) Transferability of
Awards and Award Stock. Unless otherwise provided in this Section 15(h), a Participant may not Transfer an Award or Award Stock other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Awards may be exercised during the
Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant. No Award shall be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, or liabilities of any Participant, nor shall any Award be subject to legal process or attachment for or against such person. Upon
written consent of the Committee (or its designee), the Participant may Transfer an Award or Award Stock to a Participant’s Family Group. Such members of the Family Group shall agree, in a written instrument delivered to the Company prior to
such transfer, to be bound by the provisions of the Plan, any applicable Award Agreement and any applicable shareholder agreement. Any purported Transfer of an Award or Award Stock in contravention of the provisions of the Plan shall have no force
or effect and shall be null and void, and the purported transferee of such Award shall not acquire any rights with respect to such Award. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit transfers of Awards or Award Stock under circumstances other
than those described in this Section 15(h). 
 (i) Buyout and Settlement Provisions. The Committee may at any time
on behalf of Spirit Airlines offer to buy out any Awards previously granted based on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine which shall be communicated to the Participants at the time such offer is made. The Participant shall be
under no obligation to accept such an offer. 
 (j) Use of Proceeds. The proceeds received by Spirit Airlines from the
sale of Spirit Airlines Stock pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall constitute general funds of Spirit Airlines. 

(k) Modification or Substitution of an Award. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee may modify
outstanding Awards. Notwithstanding the following, no modification of an Award shall adversely affect any rights or obligations of the Participant under the applicable Award Agreement without the Participant’s consent. 

  
 A-13









 (l) Amendment and Termination of Plan. The Board may, at any time and from time to
time, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan as to any shares of Spirit Airlines Stock as to which Awards have not been granted; provided, however, that the approval of the shareholders of Spirit Airlines in accordance with applicable law and the
Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of Spirit Airlines shall be required for any amendment which the approval is necessary to comply with federal or state law (including without limitation Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) or with the rules of any
stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Spirit Airlines Stock may be listed or traded. Except as permitted under Section 5 or Section 11 hereof, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the
consent of the holder of an Award, alter or impair rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan. Awards granted prior to the termination of the Plan may extend beyond the date the Plan is terminated and shall continue
subject to the terms of the Plan as in effect on the date the Plan is terminated. 
 (m) Section 409A of the Code.
The Plan is intended not to provide for deferral of compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The provisions of the Plan shall be interpreted in such a manner so as not to provide for deferral of compensation for purposes of
Section 409A of the Code and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted
and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. 
 In the event that following the application of the immediately preceding
paragraph, any Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder are incorporated herein by reference to the extent necessary for any Award that is subject to
Section 409A of the Code to comply therewith. In such event, the provisions of the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the related regulations, and the Plan shall be
operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict.

 Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the Company does not guarantee to any Participant or any other person that
any Award intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code shall be so exempt, nor that any Award intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code shall so comply, nor will the Company indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual
with respect to the tax consequences of any such failure. 
 (n) Notification of 83(b) Election. If in connection with
the grant of any Award, any Participant makes an election permitted under Code Section 83(b), such Participant must notify the Company in writing of such election within ten (10) days of filing such election with the Internal Revenue
Service. 
 (o) Disclaimer of Rights. No provision in the Plan, any Award granted hereunder, or any Award Agreement
entered into pursuant to the Plan shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ of or other service with the Company or to interfere in any way with the right and authority of the Company either to


  
 A-14









 
increase or decrease the compensation of any individual, including any holder of an Award, at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the
Company. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets. 
 (p) Unfunded Status
of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but which are not yet made to such
Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. 
 (q) Nonexclusivity of Plan. The adoption of the Plan shall not be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation
arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or individuals) as the Board in its sole and absolute discretion determines desirable. 

(r) Other Benefits. No Award payment under the Plan shall be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits under any
retirement plan of the Company or any agreement between a Participant and the Company, nor affect any benefits under any other benefit plan of the Company now or subsequently in effect under which benefits are based upon a Participant’s level
of compensation. 
 (s) Headings. The section headings in the Plan are for convenience only; they form no part of this
Agreement and shall not affect its interpretation. 
 (t) Pronouns. The use of any gender in the Plan shall be deemed to
include all genders, and the use of the singular shall be deemed to include the plural and vice versa, wherever it appears appropriate from the context. 
 (u) Successors and Assigns. The Plan shall be binding on all successors of the Company and all successors and permitted assigns of a Participant, including, but not limited to, a Participant’s
estate, devisee, or heir at law. 
 (v) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be
determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any
other jurisdiction. 
 (w) Notices. Any communication or notice required or permitted to be given under the Plan shall be
in writing, and mailed by registered or certified mail or delivered by hand, to Spirit Airlines, to its principal place of business, attention: Corporate Secretary, Spirit Airlines, Inc., 2800 Executive Way, Miramar, FL 33025 and if to the holder of

	II.	AGREEMENT 

 1.
Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants to Participant an Option to purchase the number of shares of Stock (the “Shares”) set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant
(the “Exercise Price”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Option shall be subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. 

2. Exercise of Option. The Option is exercisable as follows: 

(a) Right to Exercise. 
 (i) The Option shall be exercisable cumulatively according to the vesting schedule set out in the Notice of Grant. For purposes of this Option Agreement, Shares subject to the Option shall vest based on
Participant’s continued status as an Eligible Individual, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 
 (ii) The Option
may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
 (iii) In the event of Participant’s death, Disability or other
termination of Participant’s status as an Eligible Individual, the exercisability of the Option shall be governed by Sections 6, 7 and 8 hereof. 
 (iv) In the event the exercise of the Option following the termination of Participant’s status as an Eligible Individual would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of shares would
violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the Term/Expiration Date of the Option as set forth in the Notice
of Grant or (ii) the expiration of a period of sixty (60) days after the termination of Participant’s status as an Eligible Individual during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration
requirements. 
 (v) The Committee may in its discretion, at any time prior to the expiration or
termination of the Option, extend the term of the Option for such additional period as it may determine, but in no event beyond the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Grant Date. Without such prior extension by the Committee, the Option may not be exercised
after the Term/Expiration Date as set forth in the Notice of Grant. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. The Option shall be
exercisable by written notice to the Company (substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A) (the “Exercise Notice”). The Exercise Notice shall state the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised, and such
other representations and agreements with respect to such Shares of Stock as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be signed by Participant and shall be delivered in person or by certified
mail or reputable overnight courier to the Secretary of the Company or such other authorized representative of the Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price, including payment of any applicable withholding
tax. 

  
 2 








 No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of the Option unless such issuance and
such exercise comply with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to Participant
on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares. 
 3. Lock-Up Period. Participant hereby agrees
that if so requested by the Company or any representative of the underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act,
Participant shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such longer period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company) (the
“Market Standoff Period”) following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act; provided, however, that such restriction shall apply only to the first registration
statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer
instructions or take similar actions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period and these restrictions shall be binding on any transferee of such Shares. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the 180-day period may be extended for up to such number of additional days as is deemed necessary by the Company or the Managing Underwriter to continue coverage by research analysts in accordance with FINRA Rule 2711 or any successor
rule. 
 4. Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof,
at the election of Participant: 
 (a) by cash, certified or cashier’s check, bank draft or money order; 

(b) through the delivery to the Company of shares of Stock which have been previously owned by Participant for the requisite period
necessary, if any, to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes. Such shares shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Exercise Price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value
on the date of exercise; or 
 (c) by any other method which the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion and to the
extent permitted by applicable law, may permit, including any of the following: (A) through a “cashless exercise sale and remittance procedure” pursuant to which Participant shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions
(1) to a brokerage firm approved by the Committee to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price
payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable federal, state and local income, employment, excise, foreign and other taxes required to be withheld by the Company by reason of such exercise and (2) to the Company to deliver the
certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale; (B) the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise; and (C) by any other method as may be permitted by the Committee.


  
 3 








 5. Restrictions on Exercise. If the issuance of Shares upon the exercise of the
Option or if the method of payment for Shares upon exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable securities laws or any other law or regulation, then the Option may not be exercised. The Company may require Participant to make any
representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by or deemed advisable by the Company under any applicable law or regulation before allowing the Option to be exercised, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Company of the
Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. 
 6. Termination of
Relationship. If Participant ceases to be an Eligible Individual (other than by reason of Participant’s death or Disability), Participant may exercise the Option during the Termination Period set out in the Notice of Grant, to the extent
the Option was vested on the date on which Participant ceases to be an Eligible Individual. Except as otherwise provided under Section 10(c) of the Plan, to the extent that the Option is not vested on the date on which Participant ceases to be
an Eligible Individual, or if Participant does not exercise the Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company
is for Cause or is a voluntary termination within ninety (90) days after occurrence of an event which, based on a finding by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), would be grounds for termination of employment or
other service by the Company for Cause (without regard to any notice or cure period requirement), all vested and unvested Options shall be forfeited and deemed expired upon the date of such termination. 

7. Disability of Participant. If Participant ceases to be an Eligible Individual as a result of his or her Disability, all
unvested Options shall immediately vest. The Option may be exercised at any time within one (1) year from the date Participant ceases to be an Eligible Individual (but in no event later than the Term/Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of
Grant). To the extent that Participant does not exercise the Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate. 
 8. Death of Participant. If Participant ceases to be an Eligible Individual as a result of the death of Participant, all unvested Options shall immediately vest. The Option may be exercised at any
time within one (1) year following the date of death (but in no event later than the Term/Expiration Date set forth in the Notice of Grant) by Participant’s estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or
inheritance. To the extent that the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate. 
 9.
Non-Transferability of Option. Except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 15(h) of the Plan, the Option (i) may not be transferred in any manner except by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and (ii) may be
exercised during the lifetime of Participant only by Participant. The terms of the Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Participant. 

10. Term of Option. The Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant.

 11. Restrictions on Shares. Participant hereby agrees that Shares purchased upon the
exercise of the Option shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion prior to a sale of Stock to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (an “Initial Public Offering”) and to such terms and conditions the Committee reasonably determines are necessary under applicable law on or following an Initial Public
Offering. Such terms and conditions may include, without limitation, restrictions on the transferability of Shares, and a right of first refusal in favor of the Company with respect to permitted transfers of Shares, provided, that any such
terms and conditions not required by applicable law shall lapse upon an Initial Public Offering and any such terms and conditions required by applicable law shall expire on the date such restrictions are no longer required by applicable law. Any
such terms and conditions may, in the Committee’s sole discretion, be contained in the Exercise Notice with respect to the Option or in such other agreement as the Committee shall determine and which Participant hereby agrees to enter into at
the request of the Company. 
 12. Repurchase Option. Participant acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date of this
Agreement, his or her job responsibilities primarily involve oversight of the Company’s business and execution of its strategic plan (a “Management Position”). In the event that, at any time in the future Participant ceases to
hold a Management Position (as conclusively determined by the Board in good faith), then, except as otherwise provided by the Committee, all Options outstanding hereunder shall be forfeited and immediately terminate and any Shares issued to the
Participant upon the exercise of the Option, whether held by the Participant or one or more transferees of the Participant, will be subject to repurchase by the Company (solely at its option) for a per share repurchase price equal to the per share
exercise price paid by the Participant and by delivery of one or more Repurchase Notices (as defined below) (the “Repurchase Option”). Pursuant to the Repurchase Option, the Company may elect to exercise the right to purchase all or
any portion of the Shares issued to the Participant by delivering written notice or notices (each, a “Repurchase Notice”) to the holder or holders of the Shares at any time and from time to time provided that the
Company shall in no event deliver a Repurchase Notice until 181 days after such Shares have been issued to the Participant. Each Repurchase Notice will specifically identify the Shares to be acquired from such holder(s), the repurchase price of such
shares, the aggregate consideration to be paid for such shares and the time and place for the closing of the transaction (each, a “Repurchase Closing”). In the event that the Company elects to purchase a portion of such Shares
pursuant to the terms of this Section 12, if any Shares are held by transferees of the Participant, the Company shall purchase the shares elected to be purchased first from the Participant to the extent of the Shares then held by the
Participant and second purchase any remaining shares elected to be purchased from such other holder(s) of Shares pro rata according to the number of Shares held by such other holder(s) at the time of delivery of such Repurchase Notice (determined as
nearly as practicable to the nearest share). The Repurchase Option shall terminate as to all Shares upon an Initial Public Offering. 
 13. Covenant Regarding 83(b) Election. If the Option is exercised prior to an Initial Public Offering, Participant shall execute and deliver to the Company a copy of the Acknowledgment and
Statement Regarding Election Pursuant to Section 83(b) (the “Acknowledgment”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C. Except as the Company may otherwise agree in writing, Participant agrees that
Participant will make an 

  
 5 








 
election provided pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.83-2 with respect to the Shares to be acquired upon each exercise of any portion of the Option, substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit D, and that Participant will furnish the Company with copies of the forms of election Participant files within thirty (30) days after each exercise of any portion of the Option and with evidence that each such election has been
filed in a timely manner.

15. Representations of Participant. Participant acknowledges that Participant has received, read and understood the Plan and the
Option Agreement. Participant agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions, including, without limitation, Section 12 of the Option Agreement. 
 16. Rights as Stockholder. Until the stock certificate evidencing Shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option is issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the
Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to Shares subject to the Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The
Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued.








 Participant shall enjoy rights as a stockholder until such time as Participant disposes of
the Shares or the Company and/or its assignee(s) exercises the Right of First Refusal (as defined below) hereunder. Upon such exercise, Participant shall have no further rights as a holder of the Shares so purchased except the right to receive
payment for the Shares so purchased in accordance with the provisions of this Exercise Notice, and Participant shall forthwith cause the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares so purchased to be surrendered to the Company for transfer or cancellation.

 17. Participant’s Rights to Transfer Shares. In addition to the Repurchase Option provided under Section 12
of the Option Agreement, any Shares purchased hereunder shall be subject to the Right of First Refusal set forth in this Section 4. 
 (a) Company’s Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Participant or any permitted transferee (each, a “Holder”) may be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or otherwise disposed of (each, a “Transfer”), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares proposed to be Transferred on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 4 (the “Right of First Refusal”). 
 (i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. In the event any
Holder desires to Transfer any Shares, the Holder shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (w) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise Transfer such Shares; (x) the name of
each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (y) the number of Shares to be Transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (z) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Holder
proposes to Transfer the Shares (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder shall offer such Shares at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s). 
 (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may elect in writing to purchase all, but not less than all, of
the Shares proposed to be Transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees. The purchase price shall be determined in accordance with Section 4(a)(iii) hereof. 
 (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares repurchased under this Section 4 shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes
consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board in good faith. 
 (iv) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness
of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times mutually agreed to by the Company
and the Holder. 
 (v) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be Transferred
are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 4, then the Holder may sell or otherwise Transfer such Shares to that Proposed 

  
 2 








 
Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price; provided that such sale or other Transfer is consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Notice; and
provided, further, that any such sale or other Transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section 4 shall continue to apply to the Shares
in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not Transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such 120-day period, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again
be offered the Right of First Refusal as provided herein before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise Transferred. 
 (b) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4 notwithstanding, the Transfer of any or all of the Shares during Participant’s lifetime or
upon Participant’s death by will or intestacy to Participant’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of Participant’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the Right of First Refusal. As used herein, “Immediate
Family” shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister or stepchild (whether or not adopted). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so Transferred subject to
the provisions of this Section 4 (including the Right of First Refusal) and there shall be no further Transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 4. 

(c) Termination of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to all Shares upon a sale of Stock to the
general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (a “Public Offering”). 

18. Transfer Restrictions. Any transfer or sale of the Shares is subject to restrictions on transfer imposed by any applicable
state and federal securities laws. Any Transfer or attempted Transfer of any of the Shares not in accordance with the terms of this Exercise Notice, including the Right of First Refusal provided in this Exercise Notice, shall be void and the Company
may enforce the terms of this Exercise Notice by stop transfer instructions or similar actions by the Company and its agents or designees. 
 19. Tax Consultation. Participant understands that Participant may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Participant’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Participant represents
that Participant has consulted with any tax consultants Participant deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Participant is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. 

20. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders. 
 (a) Legends. Participant understands and agrees that the Company shall cause the legends set forth below or legends substantially equivalent thereto, to be placed upon any certificate(s) evidencing
ownership of the Shares together with any other legends that may be required by state or federal securities laws for so long as such legend(s) are required by applicable law: 
 THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE “ACT”) AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED
UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER THE ACT OR, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES, SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION IS IN COMPLIANCE THEREWITH.

 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER,
A REPURCHASE OPTION AND A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL OPTIONS HELD BY THE ISSUER OR ITS ASSIGNEE(S) AS SET FORTH IN THE EXERCISE NOTICE AND THE OPTION AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE ISSUER AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SHARES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED
AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS, REPURCHASE OPTION AND RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL ARE BINDING ON TRANSFEREES OF THESE SHARES. 
 (b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Participant agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions
to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records. 
 (c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this
Exercise Notice or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred. 

21. Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Exercise Notice to single or multiple assignees,
and this Exercise Notice shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Exercise Notice shall be binding upon Participant and his or her heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns. 
 22. Governing Law; Severability. This Exercise Notice shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware excluding that body of law pertaining to conflicts of law. Should any provision of this Exercise Notice be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the other
provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable. 
 23. Notices. Any notice required or
permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit in the United States mail by certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the other party at its address as
shown below beneath its signature, or to such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the other party.

 24. Further Instruments. Participant hereby agrees to execute such further
instruments and to take such further action as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes and intent of this Exercise Notice including, without limitation, the Investment Representation Statement in the form attached to the Option
Agreement as Exhibit B. 
 25. Delivery of Payment. Participant herewith delivers to the Company the full Exercise
Price for the Shares, as well as any applicable withholding tax. 
 26. Entire Agreement. The Plan and Option Agreement
are incorporated herein by reference. Should any provision contained within this Exercise Notice or the Option Agreement conflict with a provision in the Plan, the Plan shall control. This Exercise Notice, the Plan, the Option Agreement and the
Investment Representation Statement constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

	 	:	  	

 In connection with the purchase of the above-listed shares of Class B Common Stock (the
“Securities”) of Spirit Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the undersigned (“Participant”) represents to the Company the following: 

(a) Participant is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the
Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Participant is acquiring these Securities for investment for Participant’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any
“distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). 
 (b) Prior to the first registration statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public, Participant
acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends
upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Participant’s investment intent as expressed herein. Participant understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for such exemption may be
unavailable if Participant’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in
the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. Participant further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act
or an exemption from such registration is available. Participant further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities. Participant understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be
imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and any other legend required under applicable securities
laws or agreements. 
 (c) Participant is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated
under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of 







 
“restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that
if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701 at the time of the grant of the Option to Participant, the exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities exempt under
Rule 701 may under present law be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or
in transactions directly with a market maker (as this term is defined under the Exchange Act); and, in the case of a resale by an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3) the amount of
Securities being sold during any three (3) month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable. 

In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold
in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less than six months, or, in the event the Company is not subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, not less than one year, after the later of the date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the
case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph immediately above or, in the case of a non-affiliate who subsequently holds the
Securities less than one year, the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in section (2) of the paragraph immediately above. 
 (d) Participant further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or
some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private
placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such
persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. Participant understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.
