	1.	Purpose 

 The purpose of
this Plan is to advance the interests of Citrix Systems, Inc. and its Affiliates, by encouraging ownership of Stock by employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors of the Company and its Affiliates, stimulating the efforts of employees
who are selected to be participants on behalf of the Company, aligning the long-term interests of participants with those of stockholders, heightening the desire of participants to continue in working toward and contributing to the success of the
Company, assisting the Company in competing effectively with other enterprises for the services of new employees who will advance the success of the Company, and attracting and retaining the best available individuals for service as directors of the
Company, and generally providing additional incentive for them to promote the success of the Company’s business through the grant of Awards of or pertaining to shares of the Company’s Stock. The Plan is intended to be an incentive stock
option plan within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but not all Awards are required to be Incentive Options.

	3.	Term of the Plan 


Unless the Plan shall have been earlier terminated by the Board, Awards may be granted under this Plan at any time in
the period commencing on March 24, 2005 (the date of approval of the Plan by the Board) and ending on March 24, 2015 (the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the adoption of the Plan by the

approval, but in the event of the failure of the stockholders to approve the Plan shall thereafter and for all purposes be deemed to constitute Nonstatutory Options. 
  

	4.	Stock Subject to the Plan 


At no time shall the number of shares of Stock issued pursuant to or subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan (including
pursuant to Incentive Options), nor the number of shares of Stock issued pursuant to Incentive Options, exceed 32,100,000 shares of Stock; subject, however, to the provisions of Section 8 of the Plan. In addition to the foregoing, at no time
shall the number of shares of Stock issued pursuant to Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units or Stock Grants exceed 4,000,000 shares of Stock; subject, however, to the provisions of Section 8 of the Plan. 

 

 4 








 For purposes of applying the foregoing limitation if any Option or Stock Appreciation Right
expires, terminates, or is cancelled for any reason without having been exercised in full, or if any other Award is forfeited by the recipient, the shares not purchased by the Optionee or which are forfeited by the recipient shall again be available
for Awards to be granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) shares of Stock that are exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in connection with any Award under the Plan, as well as any
shares of Stock exchanged by a Participant or withheld by the Company to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any Award under the Plan, shall not be available for subsequent Awards under the Plan and (b) shares of Stock not issued
or delivered as a result of the net settlement of an outstanding Stock Appreciation Right or Option may not again be made available for issuance as Awards under the Plan. In addition, settlement of any Award shall not count against the foregoing
limitations except to the extent settled in the form of Stock. Shares of Stock issued pursuant to the Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares or shares held by the Company in its treasury. 

 

	5.	Administration 

 The Plan
shall be administered by the Committee; provided, however, that at any time and on any one or more occasions the Board may itself exercise any of the powers and responsibilities assigned the Committee under the Plan and when so acting shall
have the benefit of all of the provisions of the Plan pertaining to the Committee’s exercise of its authorities hereunder; and provided further, however, that the Committee may delegate to an executive officer or officers the authority
to grant Awards hereunder to employees who are not officers, and to consultants or advisors, in accordance with such guidelines as the Committee shall set forth at any time or from time to time. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee
shall have complete authority, in its discretion, to make or to select the manner of making all determinations with respect to each Award to be granted by the Company under the Plan including the employee, director, officer, consultant or advisor to
receive the Award and the form of Award. In making such determinations, the Committee may take into account the nature of the services rendered by the respective employees, directors, officers, consultants, and advisors, their present and potential
contributions to the success of the Company and its Affiliates, and such other factors as the Committee in its discretion shall deem relevant. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall also have complete authority to interpret the
Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to it, to determine the terms and provisions of the respective Award Agreements (which need not be identical), and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan. The Committee’s determinations made in good faith on matters referred to in the Plan shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons having or claiming any interest under the Plan or an Award made pursuant
hereto. 
  

	6.	Authorization of Grants 


6.1. Eligibility. 

(a) Persons Eligible. The Committee may grant from time to time and at any time prior to the termination
of the Plan one or more Awards, either alone or in combination with any other Awards, to any employee of, officer of, consultant to or advisor to one or more of the Company and its Affiliates or to non-employee member of the Board or of any board of
directors (or similar governing authority) of any Affiliate. However, only employees of the Company, and of any parent or subsidiary corporations of the Company, as defined in Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Code, shall be eligible for
the grant of an Incentive Option. 
  

 5 








 (b) Per-Participant Limit. Further, and subject to adjustment
under Section 8.1, in no event shall the number of shares of Stock covered by Options or other Awards granted to any one person in any one calendar year exceed 1,000,000 shares of Stock. 

6.2. General Terms of Awards. Each grant of an Award shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan
(including but not limited to any specific terms and conditions applicable to that type of Award set out in the following Section), and such other terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee may prescribe. Any
additional terms of an Award shall be set forth in an agreement evidencing the Award by and between the Company and the Participant. 

6.3. Effect of Termination of Employment, Etc. Unless the Committee, in its sole discretion shall at any time determine
otherwise with respect to any Award, if the Participant’s employment or other association with the Company and its Affiliates ends for any reason, including because of the Participant’s employer ceasing to be an Affiliate, (a) any
outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right of the Participant shall cease to be exercisable in any respect not later than 90 days following that event and, for the period it remains exercisable following that event, shall be exercisable only to
the extent exercisable at the date of that event, and (b) any other outstanding Award of the Participant shall be forfeited or otherwise subject to return to or repurchase by the Company on the terms specified in the applicable Award Agreement.
Military or sick leave or other bona fide leave shall not be deemed a termination of employment or other association, provided that it does not exceed the longer of ninety (90) days or the period during which the absent
Participant’s reemployment rights, if any, are guaranteed by statute or by contract. 
 6.4. Non-Transferability of
Awards. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.4, Awards shall not be transferable, and no Award or interest therein may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution. All of a Participant’s rights in any Award may be exercised during the life of the Participant only by the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative. However, the Committee may, at or after
the grant of an Award of a Nonstatutory Option, or shares of Restricted Stock, provide that such Award may be transferred by the recipient to a family member; provided, however, that any such transfer is without payment of any consideration
whatsoever and that no transfer shall be valid unless first approved by the Committee, acting in its sole discretion. For this purpose, “family member” means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, former spouse,
sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the employee’s household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in
which the foregoing persons have more than fifty (50) percent of the beneficial interests, a foundation in which the foregoing persons (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the
Participant) own more than fifty (50) percent of the voting interests. 
  

	7.	Specific Terms of Awards 


7.1. Prohibition on Repricing and Reload Grants. 

(a) No Repricing. Other than in connection with a change in the Company’s capitalization (as
described in Section 8 of the Plan), without stockholder approval (i) the exercise price of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may not be reduced, and (ii) no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be amended or cancelled for the
purpose of repricing, replacing or regranting such Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price that is less than the original exercise price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right. 

 

 6 








 (b) No Reload Grants. Options shall not be granted under
the Plan in consideration for and shall not be conditioned upon the delivery of Stock to the Company in payment of the exercise price and/or tax withholding obligation under any Option. 

7.2. Options. 

(a) Date of Grant. The granting of an Option shall take place at the time specified in the Award
Agreement. Only if expressly so provided in the applicable Award Agreement shall the Grant Date be the date on which the Award Agreement shall have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the Optionee. 

(b) Pricing. 

(i) Exercise Price of Incentive Options. The price at which shares of Stock may be acquired under each
Incentive Option shall be not less than 100% of the Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date, or not less than 110% of the Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date if the Optionee is a Ten Percent Owner. 

(ii) Exercise Price of Nonstatutory Options. The price at which shares of Stock may be acquired under
each Nonstatutory Option shall not be less than 100% of the Market Value of Stock on the Grant Date. 

(c) Option Period. No Option may be exercised on or after the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, or,
with respect to Incentive Options, on or after the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date if the Optionee is a Ten Percent Owner.

(d) Exercisability. An Option may be immediately exercisable or become exercisable in such installments,
cumulative or non-cumulative, as the Committee may determine. In the case of an Option not otherwise immediately exercisable in full, the Committee may Accelerate such Option in whole or in part at any time; provided, however, that in the
case of an Incentive Option, any such Acceleration of the Option would not cause the Option to fail to comply with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code or the Optionee consents to the Acceleration. 

(e) Method of Exercise. An Option may be exercised by the Optionee giving written notice, in the manner
provided in Section 16, specifying the number of shares with respect to which the Option is then being exercised. The notice shall be accompanied by payment in the form of cash or check payable to the order of the Company in an amount equal to
the exercise price of the shares to be purchased or, subject in each instance to the Committee’s approval, acting in its sole discretion, and to such conditions, if any, as the Committee may deem necessary to avoid adverse accounting effects to
the Company, by delivery to the Company of shares of Stock having a Market Value equal to the exercise price of the shares to be purchased. 

If the Stock is traded on an established market, payment of any exercise price may also be made through and under the
terms and conditions of any formal cashless exercise program authorized by the Company entailing the sale of the Stock subject to an Option in a brokered transaction (other than to the Company). Receipt by the Company of such notice and payment in
any authorized or combination of authorized means shall constitute the exercise of the Option. Within thirty (30) days thereafter but subject to the remaining provisions of the Plan, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Optionee or his agent a certificate or certificates for the number of shares then being purchased. Such shares shall be fully paid and nonassessable. 
  

 7 








 (f) Limit on Incentive Option Characterization. An
Incentive Option shall be considered to be an Incentive Option only to the extent that the number of shares of Stock for which the Option first becomes exercisable in a calendar year do not have an aggregate Market Value (as of the date of the grant
of the Option) in excess of the “current limit”. The current limit for any Optionee for any calendar year shall be $100,000 minus the aggregate Market Value at the date of grant of the number of shares of Stock available for
purchase for the first time in the same year under each other Incentive Option previously granted to the Optionee under the Plan, and under each other incentive stock option previously granted to the Optionee under any other incentive stock option
plan of the Company and its Affiliates, after December 31, 1986. Any shares of Stock which would cause the foregoing limit to be violated shall be deemed to have been granted under a separate Nonstatutory Option, otherwise identical in its
terms to those of the Incentive Option. 
 (g) Notification of Disposition. Each person
exercising any Incentive Option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to have covenanted with the Company to report to the Company any disposition of such shares prior to the expiration of the holding periods specified by Section 422(a)(1) of
the Code and, if and to the extent that the realization of income in such a disposition imposes upon the Company federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements, or any such withholding is required to secure for the Company an otherwise
available tax deduction, to remit to the Company an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy those requirements. 

7.3. Stock Appreciation Rights. 

(a) Tandem or Stand-Alone. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in tandem with an Option (at or, in
the case of a Nonstatutory Option, after, the award of the Option), or alone and unrelated to an Option. Stock Appreciation Rights in tandem with an Option shall terminate to the extent that the related Option is exercised, and the related Option
shall terminate to the extent that the tandem Stock Appreciation Rights are exercised. 
 (b) Exercise
Price. Stock Appreciation Rights shall have an exercise price of not less than the Market Value of the Stock on the date of award, or in the case of Stock Appreciation Rights in tandem with Options, the exercise price of the related Option.

 (c) Other Terms. Except as the Committee may deem inappropriate or inapplicable in the
circumstances, Stock Appreciation Rights shall be subject to terms and conditions substantially similar to those applicable to a Nonstatutory Option. In addition, a Stock Appreciation Right related to an Option which can only be exercised during
limited periods following an Acquisition may entitle the Participant to receive an amount based upon the highest price paid or offered for Stock in any transaction relating to the Acquisition or paid during the thirty (30) day period
immediately preceding the occurrence of the Acquisition in any transaction reported in the stock market in which the Stock is normally traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised on or after the tenth
anniversary of the Grant Date. 
 7.4. Restricted Stock. 

(a) Purchase Price. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be issued under the Plan for such consideration, in
cash, other property or services, or any combination thereof, as is determined by the Committee. 

(b) Issuance of Certificates. Each Participant receiving a Restricted Stock Award, subject to subsection
(c) below, shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock. Such certificate shall be registered in the name of such Participant, and, if applicable, shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms,
conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award substantially in the following form: 
 The transferability of this
certificate and the shares represented by this certificate are subject to the terms and conditions of Citrix Systems, Inc.’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan and an Award Agreement entered into by the registered owner and Citrix Systems, Inc. Copies
of such Plan and Agreement are on file in the offices of Citrix Systems, Inc. 
  

 8 








 (c) Escrow of Shares. The Committee may require that the
stock certificates evidencing shares of Restricted Stock be held in custody by a designated escrow agent (which may but need not be the Company) until the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed, and that the Participant deliver a stock power,
endorsed in blank, relating to the Stock covered by such Award. 
 (d) Restrictions and Restriction
Period. During the Restriction Period applicable to shares of Restricted Stock, such shares shall be subject to limitations on transferability and a Risk of Forfeiture arising on the basis of such conditions related to the performance of
services, Company or Affiliate performance or otherwise as the Committee may determine and provide for in the applicable Award Agreement. Any such Risk of Forfeiture may be waived or terminated, or the Restriction Period shortened, at any time by
the Committee on such basis as it deems appropriate. Except as provided in Section 7.10, the Restriction Period applicable to any Award of Restricted Stock shall be at least one (1) year if the Award has a performance-based Risk of
Forfeiture and at least three (3) years if the Award has a time-based Risk of Forfeiture; provided, however, that such a time-based Risk of Forfeiture may lapse incrementally over such three-year period. 

(e) Rights Pending Lapse of Risk of Forfeiture or Forfeiture of Award. Except as otherwise provided in
the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, at all times prior to lapse of any Risk of Forfeiture applicable to, or forfeiture of, an Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including
the right to vote, and the right to receive any dividends with respect to, the shares of Restricted Stock. The Committee, as determined at the time of Award, may permit or require the payment of cash dividends to be deferred and, if the Committee so
determines, reinvested in additional Restricted Stock to the extent shares are available under Section 4. 

(f) Lapse of Restrictions. If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the
Restricted Stock, the certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the Participant promptly if not theretofore so delivered. 

7.5. Restricted Stock Units. 

(a) Character. Each Restricted Stock Unit shall entitle the recipient to a share of Stock at a close of
such Restriction Period as the Committee may establish and subject to a Risk of Forfeiture arising on the basis of such conditions relating to the performance of services, Company or Affiliate performance or otherwise as the Committee may determine
and provide for in the applicable Award Agreement. Any such Risk of Forfeiture may be waived or terminated, or the Restriction Period shortened, at any time by the Committee on such basis as it deems appropriate. Except as provided in
Section 7.10, the Restriction Period applicable to any Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be at least one (1) year if the Award has a performance-based Risk of Forfeiture and at least three (3) years if the Award has a time-based
Risk of Forfeiture; provided, however, that such a time-based Risk of Forfeiture may lapse incrementally over such three-year period. 
  

 9 








 (b) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned
Restricted Stock Units shall be made in a single lump sum following the close of the applicable Restriction Period. At the discretion of the Committee, Participants may be entitled to receive payments equivalent to any dividends declared with
respect to Stock referenced in grants of Restricted Stock Units but only following the close of the applicable Restriction Period and then only if the underlying Stock shall have been earned. Unless the Committee shall provide otherwise, any such
dividend equivalents shall be paid, if at all, without interest or other earnings. The Committee may permit or, if it so provides at grant require, a Participant to defer such Participant’s receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of
Stock that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the satisfaction of any requirements or goals with respect to Restricted Stock Units. If any such deferral election is required or permitted, the Committee shall establish rules and
procedures for such payment deferrals. 
 7.6. Performance Units. 

(a) Character. Each Performance Unit shall entitle the recipient to the value of a specified number of
shares of Stock, over the initial value for such number of shares, if any, established by the Committee at the time of grant, at the close of a specified Performance Period to the extent specified Performance Goals shall have been achieved. Subject
to Section 7.10, the Performance Period applicable to any Award of Performance Units shall be at least one (1) year. 

(b) Earning of Performance Units. The Committee shall set Performance Goals in its discretion which,
depending on the extent to which they are met within the applicable Performance Period, will determine the number and value of Performance Units that will be paid out to the Participant. After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder
of Performance Units shall be entitled to receive payout on the number and value of Performance Units earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Goals
have been achieved. 
 (c) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned Performance Units shall
be made in a single lump sum following the close of the applicable Performance Period. At the discretion of the Committee, Participants may be entitled to receive any dividends declared with respect to Stock which have been earned in connection with
grants of Performance Units which have been earned, but not yet distributed to Participants. The Committee may permit or, if it so provides at grant require, a Participant to defer such Participant’s receipt of the payment of cash or the
delivery of Stock that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the satisfaction of any requirements or goals with respect to Performance Units. If any such deferral election is required or permitted, the Committee shall establish
rules and procedures for such payment deferrals. 
 7.7. Stock Grants. Stock Grants shall be awarded solely in
recognition of significant contributions to the success of the Company or its Affiliates, in lieu of compensation otherwise already due and in such other limited circumstances as the Committee deems appropriate. Stock Grants shall be made without
forfeiture conditions of any kind. 
 7.8. Qualified Performance-Based Awards. 

(a) Purpose. The purpose of this Section 7.8 is to provide the Committee the ability to qualify
Awards as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. If the Committee, in its discretion, decides to grant an Award as a Qualified Performance-Based Award, the provisions of this Section 7.8 will control
over any contrary provision contained in the Plan. In the course of granting any Award, the Committee may specifically designate the Award as intended to qualify as a Qualified Performance-Based Award. However, no Award shall be considered to

  

 10 








 
have failed to qualify as a Qualified Performance-Based Award solely because the Award is not expressly designated as a Qualified Performance-Based Award, if the Award otherwise satisfies the
provisions of this Section 7.8 and the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder applicable to “performance-based compensation.” 

(b) Authority. All grants of Awards intended to qualify as Qualified Performance-Based Awards and
determination of terms applicable thereto shall be made by the Committee or, if not all of the members thereof qualify as “outside directors” within the meaning of applicable IRS regulations under Section 162 of the Code, a
subcommittee of the Committee consisting of such of the members of the Committee as do so qualify. Any action by such a subcommittee shall be considered the action of the Committee for purposes of the Plan. 

(b) Applicability. This Section 7.8 will apply only to those Covered Employees, or to those persons
who the Committee determines are reasonably likely to become Covered Employees in the period covered by an Award, selected by the Committee to receive Qualified Performance-Based Awards. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Awards to Covered
Employees that do not satisfy the requirements of this Section 7.8. 
 (c) Discretion of Committee
with Respect to Qualified Performance-Based Awards. Options may be granted as Qualified Performance-Based Awards in accordance with Section 7.2, except that the exercise price of any Option intended to qualify as a Qualified
Performance-Based Award shall in no event be less that the Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant. With regard to other Awards intended to qualify as Qualified Performance-Based Awards, such as Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, or
Performance Units, the Committee will have full discretion to select the length of any applicable Restriction Period or Performance Period, the kind and/or level of the applicable Performance Goal, and whether the Performance Goal is to apply to the
Company, a Subsidiary or any division or business unit or to the individual. Any Performance Goal or Goals applicable to Qualified Performance-Based Awards shall be objective, shall be established not later than ninety (90) days after the
beginning of any applicable Performance Period (or at such other date as may be required or permitted for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code) and shall otherwise meet the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code, including the requirement that the outcome of the Performance Goal or Goals be substantially uncertain (as defined in the regulations under Section 162(m) of the Code) at the time established. 

(d) Payment of Qualified Performance-Based Awards. A Participant will be eligible to receive payment
under a Qualified Performance-Based Award which is subject to achievement of a Performance Goal or Goals only if the applicable Performance Goal or Goals are achieved within the applicable Performance Period, as determined by the Committee. In
determining the actual size of an individual Qualified Performance-Based Award, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Qualified Performance-Based Award earned for the Performance Period, if in its sole and absolute discretion, such
reduction or elimination is appropriate. 
 (e) Maximum Award Payable. The maximum Qualified
Performance-Based Award payment to any one Participant under the Plan for a Performance Period is the number of shares of Stock set forth in Section 6.1(b) above, or if the Qualified Performance-Based Award is paid in cash, that number of
shares multiplied by the Market Value of the Stock as of the date the Qualified Performance-Based Award is granted. 

(f) Limitation on Adjustments for Certain Events. No adjustment of any Qualified Performance-Based Award
pursuant to Section 8 shall be made except on such basis, if any, as will not cause such Award to provide other than “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code. 

 

 11 








 7.9. Awards to Participants Outside the United States. The Committee may
modify the terms of any Award under the Plan granted to a Participant who is, at the time of grant or during the term of the Award, resident or primarily employed outside of the United States in any manner deemed by the Committee to be necessary or
appropriate in order that the Award shall conform to laws, regulations, and customs of the country in which the Participant is then resident or primarily employed, or so that the value and other benefits of the Award to the Participant, as affected
by foreign tax laws and other restrictions applicable as a result of the Participant’s residence or employment abroad, shall be comparable to the value of such an Award to a Participant who is resident or primarily employed in the United
States. The Committee may establish supplements to, or amendments, restatements, or alternative versions of the Plan for the purpose of granting and administrating any such modified Award. No such modification, supplement, amendment, restatement or
alternative version may increase the share limit of Section 4. 
 7.10. Exceptions to Restriction Period and Performance
Period Limitations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Units and Performance Units which have a time-based Risk of Forfeiture may be subject to Restriction Periods of less than three
(3) years and such Awards with a performance-based Risk of Forfeiture may be subject to Restriction Periods or Performance Periods of less than one (1) year; provided that the aggregate number of shares of Stock issued pursuant to
or subject to such Awards plus the aggregate number of shares of Stock issued as Stock Awards shall not exceed five (5%) of the aggregate number of shares of Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan. 

 

	8.	Adjustment Provisions 


8.1. Adjustment for Corporate Actions. All of the share numbers set forth in the Plan reflect the capital structure of
the Company as of April 1, 2010. Subject to Section 9, if subsequent to that date the outstanding shares of Stock (or any other securities covered by the Plan by reason of the prior application of this Section) are increased, decreased, or
exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities, or if additional shares or new or different shares or other securities are distributed with respect to shares of Stock, through merger, consolidation, sale of all or
substantially all the property of the Company, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, or other similar distribution with respect to such shares of Stock, an appropriate and proportionate
adjustment will be made in (i) the maximum numbers and kinds of shares provided in Section 4, (ii) the per-Participant limit in Section 6.1, (iii) the numbers and kinds of shares or other securities subject to the then
outstanding Awards, (iv) the exercise price for each share or other unit of any other securities subject to then outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (without change in the aggregate purchase price as to which such Options or
Rights remain exercisable), and (v) the repurchase price of each share of Restricted Stock then subject to a Risk of Forfeiture in the form of a Company repurchase right. 

8.2. Dissolution or Liquidation. Upon dissolution or liquidation of the Company, other than as part of an Acquisition or
similar transaction, each outstanding Option and Stock Appreciation Right shall terminate, but the Optionee or Stock Appreciation Right holder shall have the right, immediately prior to the dissolution or liquidation, to exercise the Option or Stock
Appreciation Right to the extent exercisable on the date of dissolution or liquidation. 
 8.3. Adjustment of Awards
Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. In the event of any corporate action not specifically covered by the preceding Sections, including but not limited to an extraordinary cash distribution on Stock, a corporate
separation or other reorganization or 
  

 12 








 
liquidation, the Committee may make such adjustment of outstanding Awards and their terms, if any, as it, in its sole discretion, may deem equitable and appropriate in the circumstances. The
Committee may make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, the events described in this Section) affecting the Company or the
financial statements of the Company or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan. 
 8.4. Related Matters. Any adjustment in
Awards made pursuant to this Section 8 shall be determined and made, if at all, by the Committee and shall include any correlative modification of terms, including of Option exercise prices, rates of vesting or exercisability, Risks of
Forfeiture, applicable repurchase prices for Restricted Stock, and Performance Goals and other financial objectives which the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate so as to ensure the rights of the Participants in their respective Awards are
not substantially diminished nor enlarged as a result of the adjustment and corporate action other than as expressly contemplated in this Section 8. No fraction of a share shall be purchasable or deliverable upon exercise, but in the event any
adjustment hereunder of the number of shares covered by an Award shall cause such number to include a fraction of a share, such number of shares shall be adjusted to the nearest smaller whole number of shares. No adjustment of an Option exercise
price per share pursuant to this Section 8 shall result in an exercise price which is less than the par value of the Stock. 
  

	9.	Acquisition 


9.1. Consequences of an Acquisition. 

(a) Effective upon the consummation of an Acquisition, the Committee or the board of directors of the surviving or
acquiring entity (as used in this Section 9.1, also the “Committee”), shall, as to outstanding Awards (on the same basis or on different bases as the Committee shall specify), make appropriate provision for the continuation of such
Awards by the Company or the assumption of such Awards by the surviving or acquiring entity and by substituting on an equitable basis for the shares then subject to such Awards either (i) the consideration payable with respect to the
outstanding shares of Common Stock in connection with the Acquisition (net of any exercise price of such Awards), (ii) shares of stock of the surviving or acquiring entity or (iii) such other securities or other consideration as the
Committee deems appropriate, the fair market value of which (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) shall not materially differ from the fair market value of the shares of Stock subject to such Awards immediately preceding the
Acquisition. In the event such surviving or acquiring entity (if any) does not assume or substitute Awards as provided herein, such Awards shall become exercisable in full prior to the consummation of the Acquisition at such time and on such
conditions as the Committee determines, and if such Awards are not exercised prior to the consummation of the Acquisition, they shall terminate at such time as determined by the Committee. 

(b) In addition to or in lieu of the foregoing, with respect to outstanding Options, the Committee may, on the same basis
or on different bases as the Committee shall specify, upon written notice to the affected Optionees, provide that one or more Options then outstanding must be exercised, in whole or in part, within a specified number of days of the date of such
notice, at the end of which period such Options shall terminate, or provide that one or more Options then outstanding, in whole or in part, shall be terminated in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the fair market value (as
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) for the shares subject to such Options over the exercise price thereof. Unless otherwise determined by the 

 

 13 








 
Committee (on the same basis or on different bases as the Committee shall specify), and assuming there is no Acceleration of vesting as provided in subsection (a) herein, any repurchase
rights or other rights of the Company that relate to an Option or other Award shall continue to apply to consideration, including cash, that has been substituted, assumed or amended for an Option or other Award pursuant to this Section 9.1. The
Company may hold in escrow all or any portion of any such consideration in order to effectuate any continuing restrictions. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that the vesting
of any or all Awards shall Accelerate upon an Acquisition. In such case, such Awards shall become exercisable in full prior to the consummation of the Acquisition at such time and on such conditions as the Committee determines, and if such Awards
are not exercised prior to the consummation of the Acquisition, they shall terminate at such time as determined by the Committee. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of an involuntary termination of services for any reason
other than death, disability or Cause within 6 months following the consummation of an Acquisition, any Awards assumed or substituted in an Acquisition which are subject to vesting conditions and/or a right of repurchase in favor of the Company or a
successor entity, shall Accelerate in full. All such Accelerated Awards shall be exercisable for a period of one (1) year following termination, but in no event after expiration date of such Award. As used in this subsection (d) only,
“Cause” shall mean the commission of any act of fraud, embezzlement or dishonesty by the Participant, any unauthorized use or disclosure by such person of confidential information or trade secrets of the Company, or any other intentional
misconduct by such person adversely affecting the business or affairs of the Company in a material manner. The foregoing definition shall not be deemed to be inclusive of all the acts or omissions which the Company may consider as grounds for the
dismissal or discharge of any Participant or other person in the service of the Company. 
 (e) In the event of
an Acquisition while a Participant is an Outside Director, the vesting of any and all Awards shall become exercisable in full prior to the consummation of the Acquisition at such time and on such conditions as the Committee determines, and if such
Awards are not exercised prior to the consummation of the Acquisition, they shall terminate at such time as determined by the Committee. 

9.2. Assumption of Options upon Certain Events. In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with the
Company or a subsidiary of the Company or the acquisition by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company of property or stock of an entity, the Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock, and stock-based and performance-based
awards issued by such entity or an Affiliate thereof to its employees, directors or other key persons of such entity (herein referred to as “Substitute Awards”). The Substitute Awards shall be granted on such terms and conditions as the
Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. Any Substitute Awards granted under the Plan shall not count against the share limitation set forth in Section 4. 

 

	10.	Settlement of Awards 


10.1. In General. Options and Restricted Stock shall be settled in accordance with their terms. All other Awards may be
settled in cash, Stock, or other Awards, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee at or after grant and subject to any contrary Award Agreement. The Committee may not require settlement of any Award in Stock pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence to the extent issuance of such Stock would be prohibited or unreasonably delayed by reason of any other provision of the Plan. 
  

 14 








 10.2. Violation of Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or
the relevant Award Agreement, if, at any time, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, the issuance of shares of Stock covered by an Award may constitute a violation of law, then the Company may delay such issuance and the delivery of a
certificate for such shares until (i) approval shall have been obtained from such governmental agencies, other than the Securities and Exchange Commission, as may be required under any applicable law, rule, or regulation and (ii) in the
case where such issuance would constitute a violation of a law administered by or a regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission, one of the following conditions shall have been satisfied: 

(a) the shares are at the time of the issue of such shares effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933; or

 (b) the Company shall have determined, on such basis as it deems appropriate (including an opinion of counsel
in form and substance satisfactory to the Company) that the sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other disposition of such shares or such beneficial interest, as the case may be, does not require registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended or any applicable State securities laws. 
 The Company shall make all reasonable efforts to bring about the
occurrence of said events. 
 10.3. Corporate Restrictions on Rights in Stock. Any Stock to be issued pursuant
to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all restrictions upon the transfer thereof which may be now or hereafter imposed by the charter, certificate or articles, and by-laws, of the Company. In addition, either at the time an Award is
granted or by subsequent action, the Committee may, but need not, impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by a Participant or other subsequent transfers by a
Participant of any Stock issued under an Award, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by the Participant or
Participants, and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers. 

10.4. Investment Representations. The Company shall be under no obligation to issue any shares covered by any Award
unless the shares to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan have been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Participant shall have made such written representations to the Company (upon which the
Company believes it may reasonably rely) as the Company may deem necessary or appropriate for purposes of confirming that the issuance of such shares will be exempt from the registration requirements of that Act and any applicable state securities
laws and otherwise in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to that the Participant is acquiring the shares for his or her own account for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale
in connection with, the distribution of any such shares. 
 10.5. Registration. If the Company shall deem it
necessary or desirable to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or other applicable statutes any shares of Stock issued or to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, or to qualify any such shares of Stock for exemption
from the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or other applicable statutes, then the Company shall take such action at its own expense. The Company may require from each recipient of an Award, or each holder of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the
Plan, such information in writing for use in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus or offering circular as is reasonably necessary for that purpose and may require reasonable indemnity to the Company and its officers and
directors from that holder against 
  

 15 








 
all losses, claims, damage and liabilities arising from use of the information so furnished and caused by any untrue statement of any material fact therein or caused by the omission to state a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances under which they were made. In addition, the Company may require of any such person that he or she agree that,
without the prior written consent of the Company or the managing underwriter in any public offering of shares of Stock, he or she will not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, pledge or otherwise encumber, or
otherwise dispose of, any shares of Stock during the 180 day period commencing on the effective date of the registration statement relating to the underwritten public offering of securities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
provisions of this Section 10.5, if in connection with any underwritten public offering of securities of the Company the managing underwriter of such offering requires that the Company’s directors and officers enter into a lock-up
agreement containing provisions that are more restrictive than the provisions set forth in the preceding sentence, then (a) each holder of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan (regardless of whether such person has complied or complies
with the provisions of clause (b) below) shall be bound by, and shall be deemed to have agreed to, the same lock-up terms as those to which the Company’s directors and officers are required to adhere; and (b) at the request of the
Company or such managing underwriter, each such person shall execute and deliver a lock-up agreement in form and substance equivalent to that which is required to be executed by the Company’s directors and officers. 

10.6. Placement of Legends; Stop Orders; etc. Each share of Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan
may bear a reference to the investment representation made in accordance with Section 10.4 in addition to any other applicable restriction under the Plan, the terms of the Award and to the fact that no registration statement has been filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission in respect to such shares of Stock. All certificates for shares of Stock or other securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stock transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may
deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such
certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 10.7. Tax Withholding. Whenever shares of
Stock are issued or to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan, the Company shall have the right to require the recipient to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local or other withholding tax requirements
if, when, and to the extent required by law (whether so required to secure for the Company an otherwise available tax deduction or otherwise) prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such shares. The obligations of the Company
under the Plan shall be conditional on satisfaction of all such withholding obligations and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the recipient of an
Award. However, in such cases Participants may elect, subject to the approval of the Committee, acting in its sole discretion, to satisfy an applicable withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold shares to satisfy
their tax obligations. Participants may only elect to have Shares withheld having a Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction. All elections shall be
irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee deems appropriate. 
  

	11.	Reservation of Stock 

 The
Company shall at all times during the term of the Plan and any outstanding Awards granted hereunder reserve or otherwise keep available such number of shares of Stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan (if then in effect)
and the Awards and shall pay all fees and expenses necessarily incurred by the Company in connection therewith. 
  

 16 









	12.	Limitation of Rights in Stock; No Special Service Rights 


A Participant shall not be deemed for any purpose to be a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares of Stock subject to
an Award, unless and until a certificate shall have been issued therefor and delivered to the Participant or his agent. Any Stock to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to all restrictions upon the transfer thereof
which may be now or hereafter imposed by the Certificate of Incorporation and the By-laws of the Company. Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any recipient of an Award any right with respect to the continuation
of his or her employment or other association with the Company (or any Affiliate), or interfere in any way with the right of the Company (or any Affiliate), subject to the terms of any separate employment, advisory or consulting agreement or
provision of law or corporate articles or by-laws to the contrary, at any time to terminate such employment, advisory or consulting agreement or to increase or decrease, or otherwise adjust, the other terms and conditions of the recipient’s
employment or other association with the Company and its Affiliates. 
  

	13.	Unfunded Status of Plan 


The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation, and the Plan is not intended to constitute a
plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. With respect to any payments not yet made to a 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. In its sole discretion, the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Stock or payments with respect to
Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and other Awards hereunder, provided, however, that the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with the unfunded status of the Plan. 

 

	14.	Nonexclusivity of the Plan 


Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company shall be construed as
creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of stock options and restricted stock other than under the Plan, and such arrangements
may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases. 
  

	15.	Termination and Amendment of the Plan 


The Board may at any time terminate the Plan or make such modifications or amendments of the Plan as it shall deem advisable; provided
that the Board will not modify or amend the Plan if such amendment or modification would require stockholder approval under the Code or the rules of Nasdaq or the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless the Board otherwise expressly provides,
no amendment of the Plan shall affect the terms of any Award outstanding on the date of such amendment. In any case, no termination or amendment of the Plan may, without the consent of any recipient of an Award granted hereunder, adversely affect
the rights of the recipient under such Award. In addition, the Board may not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company obtained within twelve (12) months before or after the Board adopts a resolution authorizing any of the
following actions, amend the Plan to modify the provisions of Section 7.1 regarding the prohibitions on repricing and reload grants. 

The Committee may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, provided that the Award as amended is
consistent with the terms of the Plan, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of the recipient of such Award without his or her consent. 
  

 17 









	16.	Notices and Other Communications 


Any notice, demand, request or other communication hereunder to any party shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written
instrument delivered in person or duly sent by first class registered, certified or overnight mail, postage prepaid, or telecopied with a confirmation copy by regular, certified or overnight mail, addressed or telecopied, as the case may be,
(i) if to the recipient of an Award, at his or her residence address last filed with the Company and (ii) if to the Company, at its principal place of business, addressed to the attention of its Chief Financial Officer (and with a copy
sent contemporaneously to the General Counsel), or to such other address or telecopier number, as the case may be, as the addressee may have designated by notice to the addressor. All such notices, requests, demands and other communications shall be
deemed to have been received: (i) in the case of personal delivery, on the date of such delivery; (ii) in the case of mailing, when received by the addressee; and (iii) in the case of facsimile transmission, when confirmed by
facsimile machine report. 
  

	17.	Governing Law 

 The Plan
and all Award Agreements and actions taken thereunder shall be governed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof. 

 

 18
