SUBJECT TO THE PLAN 
 3.1 Number of Shares. 

(a) Subject to Sections 3.1(c) and 13.2 hereof, the maximum aggregate number of (i) Shares available for issuance under the Plan (the
“Share Limit”) shall be the sum of (1)              and (2) the number of shares which are added back to the Plan pursuant to the terms of the Plan, with such maximum
number of Shares not to exceed                  Shares; and (ii) LTIP Units available for issuance under the Plan (the “LTIP Limit”) shall be the sum of
(1)          and (2) the number of LTIP Units which are added back to the Plan pursuant to the terms of the Plan, which such maximum number of LTIP Units not to exceed
         LTIP Units. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, subject to Sections 3.1(c) and 13.2 hereof, the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan with respect to Incentive
Stock Options shall be                 . 
 (b) For purposes
of this Section 3.1, if an Award entitled the holder thereof to receive or purchase Shares or LTIP Units, the number of Shares or LTIP Units covered by such Award or to which such Award relates shall be counted on the date of grant of such
Award against the aggregate number of Shares or LTIP Units available for granting Awards under the Plan. Shares or LTIP Units that are subject to or underlie Awards which expire or for any reason are cancelled, terminated, forfeited, fail to vest,
or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under the Plan shall again be available for issuance in connection with future Awards granted under the Plan. To the extent Shares or LTIP Units are not delivered because they are used to satisfy the
applicable tax withholding obligation, such Shares or LTIP Units will be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares or LTIP Units available for delivery under the Plan and will not be available for future
issuance under the Plan. Moreover, Shares purchased on the open market with cash proceeds generated by the exercise of an Option will not increase or replenish the number of Shares available for grant. In the event that Shares or LTIP Units are
delivered in respect of an Award, all of the Shares or LTIP Units subject to the Award (and not only the actual number of Shares or LTIP Units actually issued to Participants) shall be considered in calculating the maximum number of Shares or LTIP
Units available for delivery under the Plan. Shares or LTIP Units surrendered or withheld as payment of either the exercise price of an Award and/or withholding taxes in respect of such an Award shall be counted against the share limits of this Plan
and shall not again be available for issuance in connection with future Awards. If any Shares have been pledged as collateral for indebtedness incurred by a Participant in connection with the exercise of an Award


  
 10 








 
and such Shares are returned to the Company in satisfaction of such indebtedness, such Shares shall not again be available for issuance. The foregoing adjustments to the Share and LTIP Unit
limits are subject to any applicable limitations under Section 162(m) with respect to Awards intended as performance-based compensation thereunder. 

(c) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares or LTIP Units authorized for grant under the Plan. Additionally, in the event that a company
acquired by the Company or any Affiliate, or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines, has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its shareholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the
shares or units available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to
determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan in the Board’s discretion at the time of such acquisition or combination, as
applicable, and shall not reduce the Shares or LTIP Units authorized for grant under the Plan; provided, however, that Awards using such available shares or units shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms
of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Affiliates immediately prior to such acquisition or combination. 

3.2 Stock Distributed. Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Common
Stock, treasury Common Stock or Common Stock purchased on the open market.

incorporated by reference into such Award to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 4.4 At-Will Service. Nothing in the Plan or
in any Program or Award Agreement hereunder shall confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an Employee, Director or Consultant of the Company or any Affiliate, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company or
any Affiliate, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge any Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, and with or without notice, or to terminate or change all other terms and conditions of any
Participant’s employment or engagement, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate. 

4.5 Foreign Participants. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other
countries in which the Company and its Affiliates operate or have Employees, Non-Employee Directors or Consultants, or in order to comply with the requirements of any foreign securities exchange, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have
the power and authority to: (a) determine which Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan; (b) determine which Eligible Individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (c) modify the terms and conditions
of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any such foreign securities exchange; (d) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms
and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (and any such subplans and/or modifications shall be attached to the Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the Share
Limit, LTIP Limit or Individual Award Limits contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 hereof, respectively; and (e) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local
governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements of any such foreign securities exchange. Notwithstanding the 

  
 12 








 
foregoing, the Administrator may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Code, the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, the rules of the securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded or any other applicable law. 
 4.6 Stand-Alone
and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, be granted either alone, in addition to or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in
tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards. 
 ARTICLE
V  
 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS INTENDED TO QUALIFY AS PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION 

5.1 Purpose. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine whether any Award is intended to qualify as Performance-Based
Compensation. If the Committee, in its sole discretion, decides to grant an Award to an Eligible Individual that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, then the provisions of this Article V shall control over any contrary
provision contained in the Plan. The Administrator may in its sole discretion grant Awards to Eligible Individuals that are based on Performance Criteria or Performance Goals but that do not satisfy the requirements of this Article V and that are
not intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee at the time of grant, the Performance Criteria with respect to an Award intended to be Performance-Based Compensation payable to a Covered
Employee shall be determined on the basis of Applicable Accounting Standards. 
 5.2 Applicability. The grant of an Award to an
Eligible Individual for a particular Performance Period shall not require the grant of an Award to such Eligible Individual in any subsequent Performance Period and the grant of an Award to any one Eligible Individual shall not require the grant of
an Award to any other Eligible Individual in such period or in any other period. 
 5.3 Procedures with Respect to Performance-Based
Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award which is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, no later than ninety (90) days following the
commencement of any Performance Period or any designated fiscal period or period of service (or such earlier time as may be required under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (a) designate one or more Eligible
Individuals, (b) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (c) establish the Performance Goals and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period based on the Performance
Goals, and (d) specify the relationship between the Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of
each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether and the extent to which the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance 

  
 13 








 
Period. In determining the amount earned under such Awards, unless otherwise provided in an applicable Program or Award Agreement, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but
not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant, including the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period. 

5.4 Payment of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Program or Award Agreement (and only to the extent
otherwise permitted by Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code), the holder of an Award that is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation must be employed by the Company or an Affiliate throughout the applicable Performance Period.
Performance Awards shall be paid, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, no later than 2  1⁄2 months after the tax year in which the Performance Award
vests, consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Performance Goals, Program or Award Agreement, a Participant shall be eligible to receive payment pursuant to such Awards for a
Performance Period only if and to the extent the Performance Goals for such applicable Performance Period are achieved. 
 5.5 Additional
Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, any Award which is granted to an Eligible Individual and is intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be
subject to any additional limitations imposed under Section 162(m) of the Code that are requirements for qualification as Performance-Based Compensation, and the Plan, the Program and the Award Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent
necessary to conform to such requirements. 
 ARTICLE VI 

GRANTING OF OPTIONS 

6.1 Granting of Options to Eligible Individuals. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Eligible Individuals from time to
time, in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as it may determine which shall not be inconsistent with the Plan. 
 6.2
Qualification of Incentive Stock Options. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any person who is not an Employee of the Company or any “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Company (as defined in
Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively). No person who qualifies as a Greater Than 10% Shareholder may be granted an Incentive Stock Option unless such Incentive Stock Option conforms to the applicable provisions of Section 422 of
the Code. Any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan may be modified by the Administrator, with the consent of the Participant, to disqualify such Option from treatment as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the
Code. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of stock with respect to which “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but without regard to Section 422(d) of the Code) are exercisable
for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under the Plan and all other plans of the Company and any Affiliate corporation thereof exceeds $100,000, the Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent required
by Section 422 of the Code. The rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options and other 

  
 14 








 
“incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted and the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the respective options were granted.
In addition, to the extent that any Options otherwise fail to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, such Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. 

6.3 Option Exercise Price. Except as provided in Section 6.6 hereof, the exercise price per Share subject to each Option shall be
set by the Administrator, but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (or, as to Incentive Stock Options, on the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed
for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). In addition, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to a Greater Than 10% Shareholder, such price shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date the Option is granted (or the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). 

6.4 Option Term. The term of each Option shall be set by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the term shall
not be more than ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted, or five (5) years from the date an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Shareholder. The Administrator shall determine the time period, including the
time period following a Termination of Service, during which the Participant has the right to exercise the vested Options, which time period may not extend beyond the stated term of the Option. Except as limited by the requirements of
Section 409A or Section 422 of the Code, the Committee may extend the term of any outstanding Option, and may extend the time period during which vested Options may be exercised, in connection with any Termination of Service of the
Participant, and, subject to Section 13.1 hereof, may amend any other term or condition of such Option relating to such a Termination of Service. 

6.5 Option Vesting. 
 (a)
The terms and conditions pursuant to which an Option vests in the Participant and becomes exercisable shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Such vesting may be based on service with the Company or any
Affiliate, any of the Performance Criteria, or any other criteria selected by the Committee. At any time after the grant of an Option, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects, accelerate the
vesting of the Option, including following a Termination of Service; provided, that in no event shall an Option become exercisable following its expiration, termination or forfeiture. 

(b) No portion of an Option which is unexercisable at a Participant’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become exercisable, except
as may be otherwise provided by the Committee either in an applicable Program, the applicable Award Agreement or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Option. 

6.6 Substitute Awards. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VI to the contrary, in the case of an Option that is a
Substitute Award, the price per Share of the Shares subject to such Option may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant, provided, however, that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance
with the applicable requirements of Sections 424 and 409A of the Code. 

  
 15 








 6.7 Substitution of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may, in its sole discretion,
substitute an Award of Stock Appreciation Rights for an outstanding Option at any time prior to or upon exercise of such Option; provided, however, that such Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable with respect to the same number of Shares
for which such substituted Option would have been exercisable, and shall also have the same exercise price and remaining term as the substituted Option. 

ARTICLE VII 

EXERCISE OF OPTIONS 

7.1 Partial Exercise. An exercisable Option may be exercised in whole or in part. However, an Option shall not be exercisable with
respect to fractional shares and the Administrator may require that, by the terms of the Option, a partial exercise must be with respect to a minimum number of Shares. 

7.2 Manner of Exercise. All or a portion of an exercisable Option shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the following to
the Secretary of the Company, or such other person or entity designated by the Administrator, or his, her or its office, as applicable: 

(a) A written or electronic notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option, or a portion
thereof, is exercised. The notice shall be signed by the Participant or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option; 

(b) Such representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with
all applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any other federal, state or foreign securities laws or regulations, the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or
traded or any other applicable law. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, also take such additional actions as it deems appropriate to effect such compliance including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates and issuing
stop-transfer notices to agents and registrars; 
 (c) In the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 11.3 hereof
by any person or persons other than the Participant, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator; and 

(d) Full payment of the exercise price and applicable withholding taxes to the stock administrator of the Company for the Shares with respect
to which the Option, or portion thereof, is exercised, in a manner permitted by the Administrator in accordance with Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof. 

  
 16 








 7.3 Notification Regarding Disposition. The Participant shall give the Company prompt
written or electronic notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option which occurs within (a) two (2) years from the date of granting (including the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for
purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code) such Option to such Participant, or (b) one (1) year after the transfer of such Shares to such Participant. 

ARTICLE VIII 

RESTRICTED STOCK 

8.1 Award of Restricted Stock. 

(a) The Administrator is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to Eligible Individuals, and shall determine the terms and conditions, including
the restrictions, applicable to each award of Restricted Stock, which terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the Plan, and may impose such conditions on the issuance of such Restricted Stock as it deems appropriate. 

(b) The Administrator shall establish the purchase price, if any, and form of payment for Restricted Stock; provided, however, that if a
purchase price is charged, such purchase price shall be no less than the par value of the Shares to be purchased, unless otherwise permitted by applicable law. In all cases, legal consideration shall be required for each issuance of Restricted Stock
to the extent required by applicable law. 
 8.2 Rights as Shareholders. Subject to Section 8.4 hereof, upon issuance of
Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, all the rights of a shareholder with respect to said shares, subject to the restrictions in an applicable Program or in the applicable Award Agreement.
This includes, but is not limited to, the right to vote shares of Restricted Stock as the record owner thereof, and, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the right to receive dividends and other distributions payable to an Eligible
Individual during the Restriction Period if and when the restrictions imposed on the applicable Restricted Stock lapse. Provided, however, that, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, any extraordinary distributions with respect to the shares
shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 8.3 hereof. 
 8.3 Restrictions. All shares of Restricted Stock
(including any shares received by Participants thereof with respect to shares of Restricted Stock as a result of stock dividends, stock splits or any other form of recapitalization) shall, in the terms of an applicable Program or the applicable
Award Agreement, be subject to such restrictions and vesting requirements as the Administrator shall provide. Such restrictions may include, without limitation, restrictions concerning voting rights and transferability and such restrictions may
lapse separately or in combination at such times and pursuant to such circumstances or based on such criteria as selected by the Administrator, including, without limitation, criteria based on the Participant’s duration of employment,
directorship or consultancy with the Company, the Performance Criteria, Company or Affiliate performance, individual performance or other criteria selected by the Administrator. Restricted Stock may not be sold or encumbered until all restrictions
are terminated or expire. 

  
 17 








 8.4 Repurchase or Forfeiture of Restricted Stock. If no price was paid by the Participant
for the Restricted Stock, upon a Termination of Service, the Participant’s rights in unvested Restricted Stock then subject to restrictions shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled without
consideration. If a price was paid by the Participant for the Restricted Stock, upon a Termination of Service, the Company shall have the right to repurchase from the Participant the unvested Restricted Stock then-subject to restrictions at a cash
price per share equal to the price paid by the Participant for such Restricted Stock or such other amount as may be specified in an applicable Program or the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator in its sole discretion may provide that, upon
certain events, including, without limitation, a Change in Control, the Participant’s death, retirement or disability, any other specified Termination of Service or any other event, the Participant’s rights in unvested Restricted Stock
shall not lapse, such Restricted Stock shall vest and cease to be forfeitable and, if applicable, the Company shall cease to have a right of repurchase. 

8.5 Certificates for Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the
Administrator shall determine. Certificates or book entries evidencing shares of Restricted Stock must include an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, and the Company may, in
its sole discretion, retain physical possession of any stock certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse. 
 8.6
Section 83(b) Election. If a Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Restricted Stock as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon
which the Participant would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Participant shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service. 

ARTICLE IX

INCENTIVE AWARDS 
 9.1 Performance Awards. 

(a) The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Individual and to determine whether such Performance Awards
shall be Performance-Based Compensation per Article V of this Plan. The value of Performance Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria determined by the Administrator, in each case on a specified
date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator. Performance Awards may be paid in cash, Shares or a combination of both, as determined by the Administrator. 

  
 18 








 (b) Without limiting Section 9.1(a) hereof, the Administrator may grant Performance Awards
to any Eligible Individual in the form of a cash bonus payable upon the attainment of objective Performance Goals, or such other criteria, whether or not objective, which are established by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or

with the provisions of Article V hereof. 
 9.2 Dividend Equivalents. 

(a) Subject to Section 9.2(b) hereof, Dividend Equivalents may be granted by the Administrator, either alone or in tandem with another
Award, based on dividends declared on the Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date the Dividend Equivalents are granted to a Participant and the date such Dividend Equivalents terminate or expire,
as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula, at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Administrator. In addition, the Administrator may
provide that Dividend Equivalents with respect to Shares covered by an Award shall only be paid out to the Participant at the same time or times and to the same extent that the vesting conditions, if any, are subsequently satisfied and the Award
vests with respect to such Shares. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Dividend Equivalents shall be payable with respect to Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. 
 9.3 Stock Payments. The Administrator is authorized
to make one or more Stock Payments to any Eligible Individual. The number or value of Shares of any Stock Payment shall be determined by the Administrator and may be based upon one or more Performance Criteria or any other specific criteria,

date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption therefrom. Shares underlying a Deferred Stock Award which is subject to a vesting schedule or other
conditions or criteria set by the Administrator will not be issued until such vesting requirements or other conditions or criteria, as applicable, have been satisfied. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, a holder of Deferred Stock shall
have no rights as a Company shareholder with respect to such Deferred Stock until such time as the Award has vested and the Shares underlying the Award have been issued to the Participant.

specified date or dates or over any period or periods, as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator shall specify, or permit the Participant to elect, the conditions and dates upon which the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units
shall be issued, which dates shall not be earlier than the date as of which the Restricted Stock Units vest and become nonforfeitable and which conditions and dates shall be set in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 409A of
the Code or an exemption therefrom. On the distribution dates, the Company shall issue to the Participant one unrestricted, fully transferable Share (or the Fair Market Value of one such Share in cash) for each vested and nonforfeitable Restricted
Stock Unit. 
 9.6 Performance Share Awards. Any Eligible Individual selected by the Administrator may be granted one or more
Performance Share Awards which shall be denominated in a number of Shares and the vesting of which may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria, other specific performance criteria (in each case on a specified date or dates or over
any period or periods determined by the Administrator) and/or time-vesting or other criteria, as determined by the Administrator. 
 9.7
Other Incentive Awards. The Administrator is authorized to grant Other Incentive Awards to any Eligible Individual, which Awards may cover Shares or the right to purchase Shares or have a value derived from the value of, or an exercise or
conversion privilege at a price related to, or that are otherwise payable in or based on, Shares, shareholder value or shareholder return, in each case, on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator.
Other Incentive Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Administrator and may be payable in cash or shares. In addition, and without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is also authorized to grant LTIP Units in such amount and subject to such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Administrator; provided, however, that LTIP Units may only be issued to an
Eligible Individual for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Partnership (i) in the Eligible Individual’s capacity as a partner of the Partnership, (ii) in anticipation of the Eligible Individual becoming a partner
of the Partnership, or (iii) as otherwise determined by the Administrator, provided that the LTIP Units are intended to constitute “profits interests” within the meaning of the Code, including, to the extent applicable, Revenue
Procedure 93-27, 1993-2 C.B. 343 and Revenue Procedure 2001-43, 2001-2 C.B. 191. The Administrator shall specify the conditions and dates upon which the LTIP Units shall vest and become nonforfeitable. LTIP Units shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of the Partnership Agreement and such other restrictions, including restrictions on transferability, as the Administrator may impose. These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, pursuant to such circumstances,
in such installments, or otherwise, as the Administrator determines at the time of the grant of the award or thereafter. 

  
 20 








 9.8 Other Terms and Conditions. All applicable terms and conditions of each Award
described in this Article IX, including without limitation, as applicable, the term, vesting conditions and exercise/purchase price applicable to the Award, shall be set by the Administrator in its sole discretion, provided, however, that the value
of the consideration paid by a Participant for an Award shall not be less than the par value of a Share, unless otherwise permitted by applicable law. 

9.9 Exercise upon Termination of Service. Awards described in this Article IX are exercisable or distributable, as applicable, only
while the Participant is an Employee, Director or Consultant, as applicable. The Administrator, however, in its sole discretion, may provide that such an Award may be exercised or distributed subsequent to a Termination of Service as provided under
an applicable Program, Award Agreement, payment deferral election and/or upon certain events, including, without limitation, a Change in Control, the Participant’s death, retirement or disability or any other specified Termination of Service.

exercise of the Award) held for such period of time as may be required by the Administrator in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences, in each case, having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate payments required,
(c) delivery of a written or electronic notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then-issuable upon exercise or vesting of an Award, and that the broker has been directed to pay a
sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate payments required; provided, however, that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale or (d) other form of
legal consideration acceptable to the Administrator. The Administrator shall also determine the methods by which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no

withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising in connection with any Award. The Administrator may in its sole discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company
or an Affiliate withhold Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the surrender of Shares). Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, the number of Shares which may be so withheld or surrendered shall be limited to the number of

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 11.3(b) or (c) hereof: 

(i) No Award under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have
lapsed; 
 (ii) No Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the
Participant or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by
operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy) unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions
applicable to such Shares have lapsed, and any attempted disposition of an Award prior to the satisfaction of these conditions shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by clause (i) of
this provision; and 
 (iii) During the lifetime of the Participant, only the Participant may exercise an Award (or any
portion thereof) granted to him or her under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a DRO; after the death of the Participant, any exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the
Plan or the applicable Program or Award Agreement, be exercised by his personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then-applicable laws of descent and distribution. 

(b) Notwithstanding Section 11.3(a) hereof, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Participant or a
Permitted Transferee of such Participant to transfer an Award other than an Incentive Stock Option (unless such Incentive Stock Option is to become a Non-Qualified Stock Option) to any one or more Permitted Transferees of such Participant, subject
to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee (other than to another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Participant) other than
by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Participant (other than the ability to
further transfer the Award); and (iii) the Participant (or transferring Permitted Transferee) and the Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including without limitation, documents to
(A) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws and (C) evidence the transfer. 

  
 24 








 (c) Notwithstanding Section 11.3(a) hereof, a Participant may, in the manner determined by
the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person
claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Program or Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan, the Program and the Award Agreement otherwise provide, and
to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator. If the Participant is married or a domestic partner in a domestic partnership qualified under applicable law and resides in a “community property” state,
a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner, as applicable, as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s interest in the Award shall not be
effective without the prior written or electronic consent of the Participant’s spouse or domestic partner. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the
Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is delivered to the Administrator prior to
the Participant’s death. 
 11.4 Conditions to Issuance of Shares. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor its Affiliates shall be required to issue or deliver any
certificates or make any book entries evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Administrator has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance of such Shares is in compliance with all applicable laws,
regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded, and the Shares are covered by an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration. In
addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Administrator may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Administrator, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with
any such laws, regulations, or requirements. 
 (b) All Share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan and all Shares issued pursuant to
book entry procedures are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or foreign securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any
securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Administrator may place legends on any Share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares. 

(c) The Administrator shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the
settlement, distribution or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the sole discretion of the Administrator. 

  
 25 








 (d) No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator shall determine, in its sole
discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down. 

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by any applicable law, rule
or regulation, the Company and/or its Affiliates may, in lieu of delivering to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award, record the issuance of Shares in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its
transfer agent or stock plan administrator). 
 11.5 Forfeiture Provisions. Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms
and conditions applicable to Awards under the Plan, the Administrator shall have the right to provide, in the terms of Awards made under the Plan, or to require a Participant to agree by separate written or electronic instrument, that: (a)(i) any
proceeds, gains or other economic benefit actually or constructively received by the Participant upon any receipt or exercise of the Award, or upon the receipt or resale of any Shares underlying the Award, must be paid to the Company, and
(ii) the Award shall terminate and any unexercised portion of the Award (whether or not vested) shall be forfeited, if (b)(i) a Termination of Service occurs prior to a specified date, or within a specified time period following receipt or
exercise of the Award, or (ii) the Participant at any time, or during a specified time period, engages in any activity in competition with the Company, or which is inimical, contrary or harmful to the interests of the Company, as further
defined by the Administrator or (iii) the Participant incurs a Termination of Service for Cause. 
 11.6 Prohibition on
Repricing. Subject to limitations imposed by Section 409A of the Code or other applicable law and the limitations contained in Section 13.1 below, the Administrator shall have the authority, but only with the approval of the
shareholders of the Company, to amend any outstanding Award, in whole or in part, to increase or reduce the price per Share or to cancel and replace an Award, in whole or in part, with cash and/or another Award, including without limitation, another
Option or Stock Appreciation Right having a price per Share that is less than, greater than or equal to the price per Share of the original Award. 

11.7 Cash Settlement. Without limiting the generality of any other provision of the Plan, the Administrator may provide, in an Award
Agreement or subsequent to the grant of an Award, in its discretion, that any Award may be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof. 

11.8 Leave of Absence. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Awards granted hereunder shall be suspended during any
unpaid leave of absence. A Participant shall not cease to be considered an Employee, Non-Employee Director or Consultant, as applicable, in the case of any (a) leave of absence approved by the Company, or (b) transfer between locations of
the Company or between the Company and any of its Affiliates or any successor thereof; or (c) change in status (Employee to Director, Employee to Consultant, etc.), provided that such change does not affect the specific terms applying to the
Participant’s Award. 
 11.9 Terms May Vary Between Awards. The terms and conditions of each Award shall be determined by the
Administrator in its sole discretion and the Administrator shall 

  
 26 








 
have complete flexibility to provide for varied terms and conditions as between any Awards, whether of the same or different Award type and/or whether granted to the same or different
Participants (in all cases, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan). discretion. 
 ARTICLE XII 

ADMINISTRATION 

12.1 Administrator. The Committee (or another committee or a subcommittee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under
the Plan) shall administer the Plan (except as otherwise permitted herein) and, unless otherwise determined by the Board, shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors appointed by and holding office at the pleasure of the Board, each
of whom is intended to qualify as a “non-employee director” as defined by Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, an “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code and an “independent director” under the
rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, in each case, to the extent required under such provision; provided, however, that any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and
effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 13.l or otherwise provided in any charter of the Committee.
Except as may otherwise be provided in any charter of the Committee, appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written or electronic notice to the

granted to Non-Employee Directors and (b) the Board or Committee may delegate its authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 12.6 hereof. 

12.2 Duties and Powers of Administrator. It shall be the duty of the Administrator to conduct the general administration of the Plan in

inconsistent with the Plan, to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules and to amend any Program or Award Agreement, provided that the rights or obligations of the holder of the Award that is the subject of any such Program or Award Agreement are
not affected adversely by such amendment unless the consent of the Participant is obtained or such amendment is otherwise permitted under Section 13.1 hereof. Any such grant or award under the Plan need not be the same with respect to each
Participant. Any such interpretations and rules with respect to Incentive Stock Options shall be consistent with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and
all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, Section 162(m) of the Code, or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the
Shares are listed, quoted or traded are required to be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee. 
 12.3 Action by the
Committee. Unless otherwise established by the Board or in any charter of the Committee, a majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum and the acts 

  
 27 








 
of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by all members of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of
the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the Company’s independent
certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan. 

12.4 Authority of Administrator. Subject to any specific designation in the Plan, the Administrator has the exclusive power, authority
and sole discretion to: 
 (a) Designate Eligible Individuals to receive Awards; 

(b) Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Eligible Individual; 

(c) Determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate; 

(d) Determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, but not limited to, the exercise price, grant
price, or purchase price, any performance criteria, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for vesting, lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, and
any provisions related to non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Administrator in its sole discretion determines; 

(e) Determine whether, to what extent, and pursuant to what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be
paid in cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be canceled, forfeited, or surrendered; 
 (f) Prescribe the form of
each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant;

connection with an Award; 
 (h) Establish, adopt, or revise any rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer
the Plan;

to administer the Plan. 
 12.5 Decisions Binding. The Administrator’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant
to the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement and all decisions and determinations by the Administrator with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties. 

  
 28 








 12.6 Delegation of Authority. To the extent permitted by applicable law or the rules of
any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded, the Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board or, with respect to Options or other
rights with respect to Shares (but not Shares themselves), one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take other administrative actions pursuant to this Article XIII; provided, however, that in no event shall an
officer of the Company be delegated the authority to grant Awards to, or amend Awards held by, the following individuals: (a) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, (b) Covered Employees with respect to Awards
intended to constitute Performance-Based Compensation, or (c) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided further, that any delegation of administrative authority
shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under Section 162(m) of the Code and applicable securities laws or the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded. Any
delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Board may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the
delegatee appointed under this Section 12.6 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board and the Committee. 
 ARTICLE
XIII 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 

13.1 Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 13.1, the Plan may be wholly
or partially amended or otherwise modified, suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by the Board. However, without approval of the Company’s shareholders given within twelve (12) months before or after the action by the
Administrator, no action of the Administrator may, except as provided in Section 13.2 hereof, increase the Share Limit. Except as provided in Section 13.10 hereof, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the
consent of the Participant, impair any rights or obligations under any Award theretofore granted or awarded, unless the Award itself otherwise expressly so provides. No Awards may be granted or awarded during any period of suspension or after
termination of the Plan. 
 13.2 Adjustments to Awards. 

(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other
than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting the shares of the Company’s stock or the share price of the Company’s stock other than an Equity Restructuring, the Administrator shall make
equitable adjustments, if any, to reflect such change with respect to (i) the aggregate number and kind of shares and other property that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the Share Limit, the LTIP
Limit and Individual Award Limits); (ii) the number and kind of Shares and LTIP Units (or other securities or 

  
 29 








 
property) subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect
thereto); and/or (iv) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan. Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. 
 (b) In the event of any transaction or event described
in Section 13.2(a) hereof or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting
principles, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or
upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential
benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles: 

(i) to provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount
that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 13.2, the
Administrator determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the
replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion having an aggregate value not exceeding the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the
Participant’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested; 
 (ii) to provide that such
Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary
thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; 
 (iii) to make adjustments in the
number and type of securities subject to outstanding Awards and Awards which may be granted in the future and/or in the terms, conditions and criteria included in such Awards (including the grant or exercise price, as applicable); 

(iv) to provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all securities covered thereby,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or an applicable Program or Award Agreement; and 
 (v) to provide that
the Award cannot be exercised after such event. 

  
 30 








 (c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in Sections 13.2(a) and 13.2(b) hereof: 
 (i) The number and type of securities subject to each outstanding
Award and/or the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, shall be equitably adjusted. The adjustment provided under this Section 13.2(c)(i) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and
the Company. 
 (ii) The Administrator shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Administrator in its discretion
may deem appropriate to reflect such Equity Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments to the Share Limit, LTIP Limit and the Individual Award
Limits). The adjustments provided under this Section 13.2(c) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company. 

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan to the contrary, effective as of the occurrence of a Change in Control: 

(i) all outstanding and unvested Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the plan shall immediately vest and become
exercisable, and all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding under the Plan shall remain outstanding in accordance with their terms; 

(ii) all Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and other Awards (other than Awards referenced in subsections (i) above
and (iii) below) shall immediately vest and be distributed to Participants, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, if applicable; and 

(iii) each Performance Award shall immediately vest and the holder of such Performance Award shall be entitled to an immediate
lump sum cash payment equal to the amount of such Performance Award otherwise payable at the end of the Performance Period as if 100% of the Performance Goals have been achieved. 

Any amount required to be paid pursuant to this Section 13.2 shall be paid as soon as practical after the date such amount becomes payable (but in no
event later than 2  1⁄2 months following the year in which such amount becomes payable), subject to Section 409A where applicable. 

  
 31 








 (e) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, include such further provisions and
limitations in any Award, agreement or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan. 

(f) With respect to Awards which are granted to Covered Employees and are intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, no adjustment
or action described in this Section 13.2 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause such Award to fail to so qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, unless the
Administrator determines that the Award should not so qualify. No adjustment or action described in this Section 13.2 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to
violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code. Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be authorized with respect to any Award to the extent such adjustment or action would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the
Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act unless the Administrator determines that the Award is not to comply with such exemptive conditions. 

(g) The existence of the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement and/or any Award granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the
right or power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the
Company, any issue of stock or units or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are
convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or
otherwise. 
 (h) No action shall be taken under this Section 13.2 which shall cause an Award to fail to comply with Section 409A
of the Code or an exemption therefrom, in either case, to the extent applicable to such Award, unless the Administrator determines any such adjustments to be appropriate. 

13.3 Approval of Plan by Shareholders. The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company’s shareholders within twelve
(12) months following the date of the Board’s initial adoption of the Plan. Awards may be granted or awarded prior to such shareholder approval; provided, that such Awards shall not be exercisable, shall not vest and the restrictions
thereon shall not lapse and no Shares shall be issued pursuant thereto, prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the Company’s shareholders; provided further that if such approval has not been obtained at the end of such twelve (12)-month
period, all Awards previously granted or awarded under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void. 
 13.4 No
Shareholders Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein or in an applicable Program or Award Agreement, a Participant shall have none of the rights of a shareholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award until the Participant becomes the
record owner of such Shares. 

  
 32 








 13.5 Paperless Administration. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or
using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless documentation, granting or exercise of
Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system. 
 13.6 Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation
Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Affiliate. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Affiliate: (a) to
establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Employees, Directors or Consultants of the Company or any Affiliate or (b) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any
proper corporate purpose, including, without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of the business, stock, or assets of any corporation,
partnership, limited liability company, firm, or association. 
 13.7 Compliance with Laws. The Plan, the granting and vesting of
Awards under the Plan and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded hereunder are subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules, and
regulations (including but not limited to state, federal and foreign securities law and margin requirements) and the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded, and to such
approvals by any listing, regulatory, or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions and
the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. 

13.8 Titles and Headings, References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act. The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are
for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.

 13.9 Governing Law. The Plan and any programs and agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the
internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its principles regarding conflicts of laws. 
 13.10 Section 409A. To
the extent that the Administrator determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Plan, any applicable Program and the Award Agreement covering such Award shall be interpreted in accordance with
Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that, following the Effective Date, the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Administrator
may adopt such amendments to the Plan, 

  
 33 








 
any applicable Program and the Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the
Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes on the Award under Section 409A of the Code, either through compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or with an available exemption
therefrom. 
 13.11 No Rights to Awards. No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant
to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Administrator is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Participants or any other persons uniformly. 

13.12 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to
any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate.

 13.13 Indemnification. To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable law, each member of the Board and any officer or other
employee to whom authority to administer any component of the Plan is delegated shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in
connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts
paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided, however, that he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes
to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 
 13.14
Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or
any Affiliate except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder. 
 13.15
Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates. 
 13.16 REIT Status. The
Plan shall be interpreted and construed in a manner consistent with the Company’s status as a REIT. No award shall be granted or awarded, and with respect to any award granted under the Plan, such award shall not vest, be exercisable or be
settled: (a) to the extent that the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of such award could cause the Participant or any other person to be in violation of any provision of the Company’s charter; or (b) if, in the discretion of the
Committee, the grant, vesting, exercise or settlement of such award could impair the Company’s status as a REIT.
