2016 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN: 

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 

 

			
	Payment for Units	  	No payment is required for the units that you are receiving.
		
	Vesting	  	The units vest in installments, as shown in the Notice of Stock Unit Award. No additional units vest after your Service has terminated for any reason.
		
	Forfeiture	  	 If your Service terminates for any reason, then your units will be forfeited to the extent that they have not vested before the
termination date. This means that any units that have not vested under this Agreement will be cancelled immediately. You receive no payment for units that are forfeited.
  

The Company determines when your Service terminates for this purpose.

		
	Settlement of Units	  	 Each unit will be settled on the first Permissible Trading Day that occurs on or after the day when the unit vests. However, each unit
must be settled not later than the March 15 of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the unit vests.
  

At the time of settlement, you will receive one share of the Company’s Common Stock for each vested unit.

		
	“Permissible Trading Day”	  	 “Permissible Trading Day” means a day that satisfies each of the following requirements:

 

•       The Nasdaq Global Market is open for trading on that day,

 

•       You are permitted to sell shares of the Company’s Common Stock on
that day without incurring liability under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
  

•       Either (a) you are not in possession of material non-public
information that would make it illegal for you to sell shares of the Company’s Common Stock on that day under Rule 10b-5 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (b) Rule 10b5 1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission is
applicable,



  
 2 









			
		  	 •       Under the Company’s Policy Memorandum
Concerning Securities Trading, you are permitted to sell shares of the Company’s Common Stock on that day, and
  

•       You are not prohibited from selling shares of the Company’s
Common Stock on that day by a written agreement between you and the Company or a third party.

		
	Section 409A	  	This paragraph applies only if the Company determines that you are a “specified employee,” as defined in the regulations under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
at the time of your “separation from service,” as defined in those regulations. If this paragraph applies, then any units that otherwise would have been settled during the first six months following your separation from service will
instead be settled during the seventh month following your separation from service, unless the settlement of those units is exempt from Section 409A of the Code.
		
	Nature of Units	  	Your units are mere bookkeeping entries. They represent only the Company’s unfunded and unsecured promise to issue shares of Common Stock on a future date. As a holder of units, you have no rights other than the rights of a
general creditor of the Company.
		
	No Voting Rights or Dividends	  	Your units carry neither voting rights nor rights to cash dividends. You have no rights as a stockholder of the Company unless and until your units are settled by issuing shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
		
	Units Nontransferable	  	You may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of any units. For instance, you may not use your units as security for a loan.
		
	Withholding Taxes	  	In the event that the Company determines that it or any Subsidiary is required to account to HM Revenue & Customs for the Award Tax Liability and any Secondary NIC Liability or to withhold any other tax as a result of the
settlement of this Award you, as a condition to the settlement of this Award, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it or any Subsidiary to satisfy all withholding liabilities. You shall also make arrangements satisfactory to
the Company to enable it to satisfy any withholding requirements that may arise in connection with the vesting or disposition of Shares purchased by settling this Award.

	Tax Consultation	  	You understand that you may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of your purchase or disposition of the Shares. You represent that you will consult with any tax advisors you deem appropriate in connection with the purchase
or disposition of the Shares and that you are not relying on the Company or any Affiliate for any tax advice.
		
	Section 431 Election	  	As a further condition of the settlement of this Award, you shall have signed a Section 431 Election in the form set out in Appendix A or in such other form as may be determined by HM Revenue & Customs from time to
time.
		
	Employer’s National Insurance Charges	  	As a further condition of the settlement of this Award you shall join with the Company or any other company or person who is or becomes a Secondary Contributor in making a Joint Election which has been approved by HM Revenue
& Customs, for the transfer of the whole of any Secondary NIC Liability.
		
	Your Tax Indemnity	  	 •       To the extent permitted by law, you hereby agree
to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company, and the Company as trustee for and on behalf of any related corporation, for any Award Tax Liability and Secondary NIC Liability.
  

•       The Company shall not be obliged to allot and issue any Shares or any
interest in Shares pursuant to the settlement of this Award unless and until you have paid to the Company such sum as is, in the opinion of the Company, sufficient to indemnify the Company in full against the Award Tax Liability and the Secondary
NIC Liability, or you have made such other arrangement as in the opinion of the Company will ensure that the full amount of any Award Tax Liability and any Secondary NIC Liability will be recovered from you within such period as the Company may then
determine.
  

•       In the absence of any such other arrangement being made, the Company
shall have the right to retain out of the aggregate number of shares to which you would have otherwise been entitled upon the settlement of this Award, such number of Shares as, in the opinion of the Company, will enable the Company to sell as agent
for you (at the best price which can reasonably expect to be obtained at the time of the sale) and to pay over to the Company sufficient monies out of the net proceeds of sale, after deduction of all fees, commissions and expenses incurred in
relation to such sale, to satisfy your liability under such indemnity.

transfer of personal data as described in this paragraph to the full extent permitted by and in full compliance with applicable laws.

themselves as necessary for the purposes of implementation, administration, and management of your participation in the Plan, and that the Company and/or its Subsidiary may each further transfer Data to any Data Recipients.

including any transfer of such Data, as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on your behalf, to a broker or third party with whom the Shares acquired on exercise may be deposited. Where the

 You understand that you may, at any time, review the Data, request that any necessary
amendments be made to it, or withdraw your consent herein in writing by contacting the Company. You further understand that withdrawing consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan.

		
	Restrictions on Resale	  	You agree not to sell any shares at a time when applicable laws, Company policies or an agreement between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for
such period of time after the termination of your Service as the Company may specify.
		
	Employment	  	Your award or this Agreement does not give you the right to be retained by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company in any capacity. The Company and its subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate your Service at any
time.
		
	Adjustments	  	In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Company stock, the number of your units will be adjusted accordingly, as the Company may determine pursuant to the
Plan.

units from Section 409A of the Code or (b) comply with Section 409A of the Code.
		
	Additional Terms	  	 You have no right to compensation or damages for any loss in respect of this Award where such loss arises (or is claimed to arise), in
whole or in part, from the termination of your employment; or notice to terminate employment given by or to you. This exclusion of liability shall apply however termination of employment, or the giving of notice, is caused other than in a case where
a competent tribunal or court, from which there can be no appeal (or which the relevant employing company has decided not to appeal), has found that the cessation of your employment amounted to unfair or constructive dismissal of you and however
compensation or damages may be claimed.
  
 You have no right to compensation or damages
for any loss in respect of this Award where such loss arises (or is claimed to arise), in whole or in part, from any company ceasing to be a Subsidiary of the Company; or the transfer of any business from a Subsidiary of the Company to any person
which is not a Subsidiary of the Company. This exclusion of liability shall apply however the change of status of the relevant company, or the transfer of the relevant business, is caused, and however compensation or damages may be
claimed.
