		3.	STOCK
OPTIONS


 


		3.1	Participation


 


The Company may from time to time grant Options
to Participants pursuant to this Plan.


 


		3.2	Price


 


The exercise price per Share of any Option shall
be not less than 100% of the Market Price on the date of grant, provided that with respect to an Option granted to a U.S. Taxpayer, the
exercise price per Share shall not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Company may designate and exercise price less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant if the Option: (i) is granted in substitution
of a stock option previously granted by an entity acquired that is acquired by or merged with the Company or an Affiliate, or (ii) otherwise
is structured to be exempt from, or to comply with, Section 409A of the Code, in the case of Options awarded to U.S. Taxpayers. In addition,
in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an Eligible Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns
shares representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of shares of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share
exercise price will be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
of this Section 3.2, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the
date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code.


 


		3.3	Grant
of Options


 


Each Option will be designated in the Award agreement
as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the
aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant
during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000 (U.S.), such Options will be treated
as Non-qualified Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 3.3, Incentive Stock Options will be taken into account in the order in which
they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted.


 


The Board, on the recommendation of the Committee,
may at any time authorize the granting of Options to such Participants as it may select for the number of Shares that it shall designate,
subject to the provisions of this Plan. The date of grant of an Option shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board, be (i) the date
such grant was approved by the Committee for recommendation to the Board, provided the Board approves such grant; or (ii) for a grant
of an Option not approved by the Committee for recommendation to the Board, the date such grant was approved by the Board.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


Each Option granted to a Participant shall be
evidenced by a stock option agreement with terms and conditions consistent with this Plan and as approved by the Board on the recommendation
of the Committee (which terms and conditions need not be the same in each case and may be changed from time to time, subject to Section
6.8 of this Plan, and the approval of any material changes by the Exchange).


 


In respect of Options granted to Participants
pursuant to this Plan, the Company is representing herein and in the applicable stock option agreement that the Participant is a bona
fide Eligible Person of the Company or a Designated Affiliate.


 


		3.4	Terms
of Options


 


The Option Period shall be ten years from the
date such Option is granted or such greater or lesser duration as the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, may determine at
the date of grant, and may thereafter be reduced with respect to any such Option as provided in Section 3.6 hereof covering termination
of employment or engagement of the Optionee or death or Disability of the Optionee; provided, however, that at any time the expiry date
of the Option Period in respect of any outstanding Option under this Plan should be determined to occur either during a Blackout Period
imposed by the Company or within two business days following the expiry of the Blackout Period, the expiry date of such Option Period
shall be deemed to be the date that is the tenth business day following the expiry of the Blackout Period. Moreover, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns Shares representing more
than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Incentive
Stock Option will be five years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award agreement.


 


Unless otherwise determined from time to time
by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, Options shall vest and may be exercised (in each case to the nearest full Share)
during the Option Period annually over a two-year period, with one-eighth of the Options vesting on the date of grant, and an additional
one-eighth of the Options vesting on the date which is each three months thereafter.


 


Except as set forth in Section 3.6, no Option
may be exercised unless the Optionee is at the time of such exercise:


 


	 	(a)	in the case of an Eligible Employee, in the employ of the Company or a Designated Affiliate and shall have been continuously so employed or retained since the grant of the Option;


 


	 	(b)	in the case of an Eligible Consultant, a Consultant of the Company or a Designated Affiliate and shall have been such a Consultant continuously since the grant of the Option; or


 


	 	(c)	in the case of an Eligible Director, a director of the Company or a Designated Affiliate and shall have been such a director continuously since the grant of the Option.


 


The exercise of any Option will be contingent
upon the Optionee having entered into a stock option agreement with the Company on such terms and conditions as have been approved by
the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, and which incorporates by reference the terms of this Plan. The exercise of any Option
will, subject to Section 3.5, also be contingent upon receipt by the Company of cash payment of the full purchase price of the Shares
being purchased.


 


Shares issuable upon exercise of the Options may
be subject to a hold period or trading restrictions. In addition, no Optionee who is resident in the U.S. may exercise Options unless
the Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options are registered under the U.S. Securities Act or are issued in compliance with an
available exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act.


 


To the extent that the Committee determines it
to be desirable to qualify Awards granted hereunder as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m)
of the Code, the Plan will be administered by a Committee of two (2) or more “outside directors” within the meaning of Section
162(m) of the Code.


 


To the extent desirable to qualify transactions
hereunder as exempt under Rule 16b-3, the transactions contemplated hereunder will be structured to satisfy the requirements for exemption
under Rule 16b-3. 


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


		3.5	Cashless
Exercise Right


 


Unless prohibited by the Exchange, and except
with respect to Incentive Stock Options awarded to U.S. Taxpayers, Participants have the right (the “Cashless Exercise Right”),
in lieu of the right to exercise an Option, to terminate such Option in whole or in part by notice in writing delivered by the Participant
to the Company electing to exercise the Cashless Exercise Right and, in lieu of receiving the Shares (the “Option Shares”)
to which such terminated Option relates, to receive the number of Shares, disregarding fractions, which is equal to the quotient obtained
by:


 


	 	(a)	subtracting the applicable Option exercise price per Share from the Market Price per Share on the business day immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right and multiplying the remainder by the number of Option Shares;


 


	 	(b)	subtracting from the amount obtained under subsection 3.5(a) that amount of Tax Obligations applicable to the Option Shares; and


 


	 	(c)	dividing the net amount obtained under subsection 3.5(b) by the Market Price per Share on the business day immediately prior to the exercise of the Cashless Exercise Right.


 


If a Participant exercises a Cashless Exercise
Right in connection with an Option, it is exercisable only to the extent and on the same conditions that the related Option is exercisable
under this Plan.


 


		3.6	Effect
of Termination of Employment or Death or Disability


 


If an Optionee:


 


	 	(a)	dies or becomes disabled while employed by, a Consultant to or while a director of the Company or a Designated Affiliate, any Option that had vested and was held by him or her at the date of death or Disability shall become exercisable in whole or in part, but only by the person or persons to whom the Optionee’s rights under the Option shall pass by the Optionee’s will or applicable laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, all such Options shall be exercisable only to the extent that the Optionee was entitled to exercise the Option at the date of his or her death or Disability and only for 12 months after the date of death or Disability or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect thereof, whichever is sooner;


 


	 	(b)	ceases to be employed by, or to act as a director of, or to be engaged as a Consultant of, the Company or a Designated Affiliate for cause, no Option held by such Optionee will, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, be exercisable following the date on which such Optionee ceases to be so employed or engaged; and


 


	 	(c)	ceases to be employed by, or to or act as a director of, or to be engaged as a Consultant of, the Company or a Designated Affiliate for any reason other than cause then, unless otherwise determined by the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, any Option that had vested and is held by such Optionee at the effective date thereof shall become exercisable for a period of up to 30 days thereafter or prior to the expiration of the Option Period in respect thereof, whichever is sooner.


 


		3.7	Reduction
in Exercise Price


 


Any change to the exercise price of any Option
shall be subject to the approval of the Board.


 


Stockholder Approval (as required by the Exchange)
shall be obtained for any reduction in the exercise price of any Option granted under this Plan if the holder thereof is an Insider of
the Company at the time of the proposed amendment.

In the event of a Change of Control, all Options
outstanding shall vest immediately and be settled by the issuance of Shares or cash, or a combination of both Shares and cash, at the
discretion of the Committee.

	 	(b)	Designation of Options. Each stock option agreement with respect to an Option granted to a U.S. Taxpayer shall specify whether the related Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-qualified Stock Option. If no such specification is made in the stock option agreement or in the resolutions authorizing the grant of the Option, the related Option will be a Non- qualified Stock Option.


 


	 	(c)	Special Requirements for Incentive Stock Options. In addition to the other terms and conditions of this Plan (and notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Plan to the contrary), the following limitations and requirements will apply to an Incentive Stock Option:

To the extent that an Option that is designated as an Incentive Stock Option becomes exercisable for the first time during any calendar year for Shares having a Fair Market Value greater than US$100,000, the portion that exceeds such amount will be treated as a Non-qualified Stock Option.


 


	 	(iii)	The exercise price per Share payable upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option will be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the applicable grant date; provided, however, that the exercise price per Share payable upon exercise of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a U.S. Taxpayer who is a 10% Stockholder (within the meaning of Sections 422 and 424 of the Code) on the applicable grant date will be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the applicable grant date.

The limitations below are not intended to, and will not, extend the time during which an Option may be exercised pursuant to the terms of such Option.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


	 	(A)	For Incentive Stock Option treatment, if a U.S. Taxpayer who has been granted an Incentive Stock Option ceases to be an employee due to the Disability of such U.S. Taxpayer (within the meaning of Section 22(e) of the Code), such Incentive Stock Option must be exercised (to the extent such Incentive Stock Option is exercisable pursuant to its terms) by the date that is one year following the date of such Disability (but in no event beyond the term of such Incentive Stock Option).


 


	 	(B)	For Incentive Stock Option treatment, if a U.S. Taxpayer who has been granted an Incentive Stock Option ceases to be an employee for any reason other than the death or Disability of such U.S. Taxpayer, such Incentive Stock Option must be exercised (to the extent such Incentive Stock Option otherwise is exercisable pursuant to its terms) by such U.S. Taxpayer within three months following the date of termination (but in no event beyond the term of such Incentive Stock Option).


 


	 	(C)	For purposes of this Section 3.9(c)(vi), the employment of a U.S. Taxpayer who has been granted an Incentive Stock Option will not be considered interrupted or terminated upon (a) sick leave, military leave or any other leave of absence approved by the Company that does not exceed three months; provided, however, that if reemployment upon the expiration of any such leave is guaranteed by contract or applicable law, such three month limitation will not apply, or (b) a transfer from one office of the Company (or of any Designated Affiliate) to another office of the Company (or of any Designated Affiliate) or a transfer between the Company and any Designated Affiliate.


 


	 	(vii)	An Incentive Stock Option granted to a U.S. Taxpayer may be exercised during such U.S. Taxpayer’s lifetime only by such U.S. Taxpayer.


 


	 	(viii)	An Incentive Stock Option granted to a U.S. Taxpayer may not be transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise disposed of by such U.S. Taxpayer, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.


 


	 	(ix)	In the event the Plan is not approved by the stockholders of the Company in accordance with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code within 12 months of the date of adoption of the Plan, Options otherwise designated as Incentive Stock Options will be Non-qualified Stock Options.


 


	 	(x)	The Company shall have no liability to a U.S. Taxpayer or any other party if any Option (or any part thereof) intended to be an Incentive Stock Option is not an Incentive Stock Option.


 


		4.	RESTRICTED
STOCK UNITS


 


		4.1	Participants


 


The Board, on the recommendation of the Committee,
may grant, in its sole and absolute discretion, to any Participant, rights to receive any number of Restricted Stock Units as a discretionary
payment in consideration of past services to the Company or as an incentive for future services, subject to this Plan and with such additional
provisions and restrictions as the Board may determine. 


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


		4.2	Maximum
Number of Shares


 


The aggregate maximum number of Shares available
for issuance from treasury underlying Restricted Shares Units under this Plan, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 6.3, shall not
exceed the maximum number of Shares issuable under this Plan at the applicable time. Any Shares subject to a Restricted Stock Unit which
has been granted under the Plan and which has been cancelled or terminated in accordance with the terms of the Plan without the applicable
Restricted Period having expired will again be available under the Plan.


 


Such aggregate maximum number of Shares subject
to Restricted Stock Units which have been granted under this Plan shall be subject to, applicable, any stock exchange or regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over the securities of the Company.


 


		4.3	Restricted
Stock Unit Grant Letter


 


Each grant of a Restricted Stock Unit under this
Plan shall be evidenced by a grant letter (a “Restricted Stock Unit Grant Letter”) issued to the Participant by the
Company. Such Restricted Stock Unit Grant Letter shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of this Plan and may be subject
to any other terms and conditions (including without limitation any recoupment, reimbursement or clawback compensation policy as may be
adopted by the Board from time to time) which are not inconsistent with this Plan and which the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee,
deems appropriate for inclusion in a Restricted Stock Unit Grant Letter. The provisions of the various Restricted Stock Unit Grant Letters
issued under this Plan need not be identical.


 


For purposes of qualifying grants of Restricted
Stock Units as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee, in its discretion, may set
restrictions based upon the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals will be set by the Committee on or before the Determination
Date. In granting Restricted Stock Units that are intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee will follow any
procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate to ensure the qualification of the Award under Section 162(m)
of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals).


 


		4.4	Restricted
Period


 


Concurrent with the determination to grant Restricted
Stock Units to a Participant, the Board, on the recommendation of the Committee, shall determine the Restricted Period applicable to such
Restricted Stock Units. In addition, at the sole discretion of the Board, at the time of grant, the Restricted Stock Units may be subject
to performance conditions to be achieved by the Company or a class of Participants or by a particular Participant on an individual basis,
within a Restricted Period, for such Restricted Stock Units to entitle the holder thereof to receive the underlying Shares or cash in
lieu thereof.


 


		4.5	Deferred
Payment Date


 


Any Participant who is not a U.S. Taxpayer may
elect to defer to receive all or any part of the Shares, or cash in lieu thereof, underlying Restricted Stock Units until one or more
Deferred Payment Dates. Any other Participants may not elect a Deferred Payment Date. 


 


		4.6	Prior
Notice of Deferred Payment Date


 


Participants who elect to set a Deferred Payment
Date must give the Company written notice of the Deferred Payment Date(s) not later than 30 days prior to the expiration of the Restricted
Period. For certainty, Participants shall not be permitted to give any such notice after the day which is 30 days prior to the expiration
of the Restricted Period and a notice once given may not be changed or revoked.


 


		4.7	Retirement
or Termination during Restricted Period


 


In the event and to the extent of the Retirement
or Termination and/or, as applicable, the Director Retirement or Director Termination of a Participant from all such roles with the Company
during the Restricted Period, any Restricted Stock Units held by the Participant shall immediately terminate and be of no further force
or effect; provided, however, that the Board shall have the absolute discretion to modify the grant of the Restricted Stock Units to provide
that the Restricted Period shall terminate immediately prior to the date of such occurrence.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


		4.8	Retirement
or Termination after Restricted Period


 


In the event and to the extent of the Retirement
or Termination and/or, as applicable, the Director Retirement or Director Termination of the Participant from all such roles with the
Company following the Restricted Period and prior to a Deferred Payment Date (as elected by a Participant who is not a U.S. Taxpayer),
the Participant shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall issue forthwith, Shares or cash in lieu thereof in satisfaction of
the Restricted Stock Units then held by the Participant. The provisions of this Section 4.8 shall not apply to Participants who are Israeli
taxpayers.


 


		4.9	Death
or Disability of Participant


 


In the event of the death or Disability of a Participant,
any Shares or cash in lieu thereof represented by Restricted Stock Units held by the Participant shall be immediately issued or paid by
the Company to the Participant or legal representative of the Participant.


 


		4.10	Payment
of Dividends


 


Subject to the absolute discretion of the Board,
in the event that a dividend (other than a dividend payable in shares) is declared and paid by the Company on the Shares, a Participant
may be credited with additional Restricted Stock Units. The number of such additional Restricted Stock Units, if any, will be calculated
by dividing (a) the total amount of the dividends that would have been paid to the Participant if the Restricted Stock Units (including
Restricted Stock Units in which the Restricted Period has expired but the Shares have not been issued due to a Deferred Payment Date)
in the Participant’s account on the dividend record date had been outstanding Shares (and the Participant held no other Shares)
by (b) the Market Price of the Shares on the date on which such dividends were paid. Additional Restricted Stock Units awarded pursuant
to this Section 4.10 shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the underlying Restricted Stock Units to which they relate.


 


		4.11	Change
of Control


 


In the event of a Change of Control, all Restricted
Stock Units outstanding shall vest immediately and be settled by the issuance of Shares or cash, or a combination of both Shares and cash,
in each case in the discretion of the Committee, notwithstanding the Restricted Period and any Deferred Payment Date.


 


		4.12	Redemption
of Restricted Stock Units


 


Except to the extent prohibited by the Exchange,
upon expiry of the applicable Restricted Period (or on the Deferred Payment Date, as applicable), the Company shall redeem Restricted
Stock Units in accordance with the election made in a Redemption Notice given by the Participant to the Company by:


 


	 	(a)	issuing to the Participant one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit redeemed provided the Participant makes payment to the Company of an amount equal to the Tax Obligation required to be remitted by the Company to the taxation authorities as a result of the redemption of the Restricted Stock Units;


 


	 	(b)	issuing to the Participant one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit redeemed and either (i) selling, or arranging to be sold, on behalf of the Participant, such number of Shares issued to the Participant as to produce net proceeds available to the Company equal to the applicable Tax Obligation so that the Company may remit to the taxation authorities an amount equal to the Tax Obligation; or (ii) receiving from the Participant at the time of issuance of the Shares an amount equal to the applicable Tax Obligation;


 


	 	(c)	subject to the discretion of the Company, paying in cash to, or for the benefit of, the Participant, the value of any Restricted Stock Units being redeemed, less any applicable Tax Obligation; or


 


	 	(d)	a combination of any of the Shares or cash in Section 4.12(a), Section 4.12(b), or Section 4.12(c) above.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


The Shares shall be issued and the cash, if any,
shall be paid as a lump sum by the Company within ten business days of the date the Restricted Stock Units are redeemed pursuant to this
Part 4. Restricted Stock Units of U.S. Taxpayers will be redeemed as soon as possible following the end of the Restricted Period (as set
forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Grant Letter or such earlier date on which the Restricted Period is terminated pursuant to this Part
4), and in all cases by the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Period ends, or if later, by the date that is 75 days following
the end of the Restricted Period. A Participant shall have no further rights respecting any Restricted Stock Unit which has been redeemed
in accordance with this Plan.


 


No Participant who is resident in the U.S. may
receive Shares for redeemed Restricted Stock Units unless the Shares to be issued upon redemption of the Restricted Stock Units are registered
under the U.S. Securities Act or are issued in compliance with an available exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities
Act.


 


		4.13	Rights
as a Stockholder


 


A Participant receiving Restricted Stock Units
shall have the rights of a stockholder only as to Shares, if any, actually issued to such Participant upon expiration of the applicable
Restricted Period and satisfaction or achievement of the terms and conditions of the Award, and in accordance with the provisions of the
Plan and the applicable Award agreement, and not with respect to Shares to which such Award relates but which are not actually issued
to such Participant.


 


		5.	WITHHOLDING
TAXES


 


		5.1	Withholding
Taxes


 


The Company or any Designated Affiliate may take
such steps as are considered necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes or other amounts which the Company or any Designated
Affiliate is required by any law or regulation of any governmental authority whatsoever to withhold in connection with any Award including,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the withholding of all or any portion of any payment or the withholding of the issue
of any Shares to be issued under this Plan, until such time as the Participant has paid the Company or any Designated Affiliate for any
amount which the Company or Designated Affiliate is required to withhold by law with respect to such taxes or other amounts. Without limitation
to the foregoing, the Board may adopt administrative rules under this Plan, which provide for the automatic sale of Shares (or a portion
thereof) in the market upon the issuance of such Shares under this Plan on behalf of the Participant to satisfy withholding obligations
under an Award.


 


		6.	GENERAL


 


		6.1	Number
of Shares


 


The total number of shares of Common Stock
reserved and available for issuance under the Plan shall be 1,350,000 shares of Common Stock. Shares of Common Stock under the Plan may
consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares. The number of shares of Common Stock available for
issuance under the Plan shall automatically increase on the first trading day of January each calendar year during the term of the Plan,
beginning with the calendar year 2023, resulting in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available under this Plan is equal
to fifteen percent (15%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last trading day in December of the immediately
preceding calendar year. If any shares of Common Stock that have been granted pursuant to an Award cease to be subject to such Award or
are forfeited or if any Award otherwise terminates without a payment being made to the Holder in the form of Common Stock, such shares
shall again be available for distribution in connection with future grants and Awards under the Plan.


 


		6.2	Lapsed
Awards


 


If Awards are surrendered, terminated, or expire
without being exercised in whole or in part, new Awards may be granted covering the Shares not issued under such lapsed Awards, subject
to any restrictions that may be imposed by the Code.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

 


		6.3	Adjustment
in Shares Subject to this Plan


 


If the outstanding Shares shall at any time be
changed or exchanged by the declaration of a stock dividend (bonus shares), stock split, combination or exchange of Shares, recapitalization,
or any other like event by or of the Company, and as often as the same shall occur, then the number, class, and kind of the Shares subject
to the Plan or subject to any Options therefore granted, and the exercise price, shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to
maintain the proportionate number of Shares, without changing the aggregate exercise price; provided, however, that no adjustment shall
be made by reason of the distribution of subscription rights or a rights offering on outstanding Shares. Upon the occurrence of any of
the foregoing, the class and the aggregate number of Shares issuable pursuant to the Plan (as set forth in Section 5 hereof), in respect
of which Options have not yet been exercised, shall be appropriately adjusted. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the
Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof
shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Option.


 


		6.4	Non-Transferability


 


Any Awards accruing to any Participant in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Plan shall not be transferable or assignable to anyone unless specifically provided herein. During
the lifetime of a Participant all Awards may only be exercised by the Participant. Awards are non-transferable and non- assignable except
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.


 


		6.5	Employment


 


Nothing contained in this Plan shall confer upon
any Participant any right with respect to employment or continuance of employment with the Company or any Affiliate or interfere in any
way with the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time. Participation in this
Plan by a Participant is voluntary.


 


		6.6	Record
Keeping


 


The Company shall maintain a register in which
shall be recorded:


 


	 	(a)	the name and address of each Participant;


 


	 	(b)	the number of Awards granted to each Participant and relevant details regarding such Awards; and


 


	 	(c)	such other information as the Board may determine.


 


		6.7	Necessary
Approvals


 


The issue of Shares under this Plan is prohibited
until the date that the Company obtains approval of this Plan by Stockholder Approval (the “Effective Date”). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Board may issue Awards prior to the Effective Date, with all such Awards subject to the following additional restrictions
unless and until the occurrence of the Effective Date: (x) all Awards will be prohibited from being converted or exchanged for Shares;
and (y) all Awards will terminate upon a Change of Control or upon either the stockholders of the Company or the Exchange failing to approve
this Plan.


 


		6.8	Amendments
to Plan


 


The Board shall have the power to, at any time
and from time to time, either prospectively or retrospectively, amend, suspend, or terminate this Plan or any Award granted under this
Plan without stockholder approval, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing: changes of a clerical or grammatical nature,
changes regarding the persons eligible to participate in this Plan, changes to the exercise price, vesting, term, and termination provisions
of the Award, changes to the Cashless Exercise Right provisions, changes to the authority and role of the Board under this Plan, and any
other matter relating to this Plan and the Awards that may be granted hereunder, provided however that:


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


	 	(a)	such amendment, suspension, or termination is in accordance with applicable laws and the rules of the Exchange, and any such amendment has been approved by the Exchange;


 


	 	(b)	no amendment to this Plan or to an Award granted hereunder will have the effect of impairing, derogating from or otherwise adversely affecting the terms of an Award which is outstanding at the time of such amendment without the written consent of the holder of such Award;


 


	 	(c)	the expiry date of an Option Period in respect of an Option shall not be more than ten years from the date of grant of an Option except as expressly provided in Section 3.4;


 


	 	(d)	the Directors shall obtain Stockholder Approval of:


 


	 	(i)	any amendment to the number of Shares specified in Section 6.1;


 


	 	(ii)	any amendment to the limitations on Shares that may be reserved for issuance, or issued, to Insiders; or


 


	 	(iii)	any amendment that would reduce the exercise price of an outstanding Option other than pursuant to Section 6.3;


 


	 	(iv)	any amendment that would extend the expiry date of the Option Period in respect of any Option granted under this Plan except as expressly contemplated in Section 3.4; and,


 


	 	(v)	to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with applicable law or the rules of the Exchange.


 


If this Plan is terminated, the provisions of
this Plan and any administrative guidelines and other rules and regulations adopted by the Board and in force on the date of termination
will continue in effect as long as any Award or any rights pursuant thereto remain outstanding and, notwithstanding the termination of
this Plan, the Board shall remain able to make such amendments to this Plan or the Award as they would have been entitled to make if this
Plan were still in effect.


 


		6.9	No
Representation or Warranty


 


The Company makes no representation or warranty
as to the future market value of any Shares issued in accordance with the provisions of this Plan.


 


		6.10	Section
409A


 


It is intended that any payments under the Plan
to U.S. Taxpayers shall be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed and
interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Amendment, substitution,
or termination, as permitted under the Plan, of Awards of U.S. Taxpayers will be undertaken in a manner to avoid adverse tax consequences
under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no assurance that Awards will satisfy the requirements
of Section 409A of the Code. Participants remain solely liable for all taxes, penalties and interest that may arise as a result of the
grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of Awards under the Plan.


 


		6.11	Compliance
with U.S. Securities Laws


 


The Board shall not grant any Awards that may
be denominated or redeemed in Shares to residents of the U.S. unless such Awards and the Shares issuable upon exercise or redemption thereof
are registered under the U.S. Securities Act or are issued in compliance with an available exemption from the registration requirements
of the U.S. Securities Act.


 




    	 	 	 



     


    

  


		6.12	Compliance
with Applicable Law, etc.


 


If any provision of this Plan or any agreement
entered into pursuant to this Plan contravenes any legal or regulatory requirements relating to the administration of equity-based awards,
including but not limited to any order, policy, by-law, or regulation of any regulatory body, any stock exchange or quotation system on
which securities of the Company are listed or quoted, or the applicable laws of any country or jurisdiction where Awards are, or will
be, granted under the Plan, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to bring such provision into compliance
therewith.


 


		6.13	[INTENTIONALLY
OMITTED.]


 


		6.14	Term
of the Plan


 


This Plan shall be in effect upon the adoption
by the Board of Directors and remain in effect until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date the Board approves and adopts
this Plan, unless terminated earlier by the Board. This Plan and all Awards issued hereunder will terminate immediately without any further
action if the stockholder resolution required to trigger the Effective Date is not approved by the stockholders or if the Exchange determines
not to approve this Plan.
