SECTION 4. Termination of Employment
at Any Time Other Than During the Protection Period by the Company Without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason. Subject
to Section 6, if a Participant’s employment is terminated either (x) by the Company or any of its Affiliates without
Cause (other than by reason of death or Disability) or (y) by reason of resignation of the Participant with Good Reason, in
each case, at any time other than during the Protection Period, then the Participant shall be entitled to the following payments
and benefits, subject to Section 9(c):


 


		(a)	Severance Pay. The Company shall pay the Participant an aggregate amount equal to the product

Multiple”), payable in equal monthly installments over a number of years (or partial years, if applicable) equal to the
Severance Multiple, beginning on the first regular payroll date that is on or following the 61st day following the Participant’s
Termination Date.



 


		(b)	Prorated Annual Bonus. The Company shall pay the Participant an amount equal to the product
of (i) the annual cash bonus the Participant would have received under the annual incentive plan in which the Participant
participates immediately prior to the Participant’s Termination Date with respect to the calendar year in which such Termination
Date occurs had he or she been actively employed throughout the entire such calendar year and (ii) a fraction, the numerator
of which is the number of days that the Participant was actively employed by the Company in such calendar year, and the denominator

payments under such plan are made with respect to such calendar year to participants who remain actively employed by the Company
or any of its Affiliates throughout the remainder of such calendar year (the “Prorated Bonus”).



 


		(c)	Continued Welfare Benefits. Commencing on the Participant’s Termination Date and continuing
for the number of years thereafter equal to the Severance Multiple (the “Benefits Continuation Period”), the
Company shall provide, or reimburse the Participant for, medical benefits coverage for the Participant and the Participant’s
spouse and dependents through the Company’s group medical plans (in each case, as provided in the applicable plan) at least
equal to the levels of benefits provided by the Company and its Affiliates to the Participant immediately prior to such Termination
Date, subject to the Participant’s timely election under COBRA and such Participant continuing to make all premium payments
required under the terms of such plan (which employee cost-sharing may be deducted from the cash payments made under Section 4(a) or
(b) above); provided, however that if the Participant becomes reemployed with another employer and is eligible
to receive medical and welfare benefits under such employer’s plans, the benefits described herein shall cease (the continued
benefits described in this Section 4(c), the “Welfare Benefits Continuation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) if any plan pursuant to which such benefits are provided is not, or ceases prior to the expiration of the Benefits Continuation
Period to be, exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(a)(5),
or (ii) the Company is otherwise unable to continue to cover such Participant under its group health plans without penalty
under applicable law (including without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then, in either case,
an amount equal to each remaining Company subsidy shall thereafter be paid to such Participant in substantially equal monthly installments
over the Benefits Continuation Period (or the remaining portion thereof). The Company may modify the Welfare Benefits Continuation
to the extent reasonably necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise taxes for failure to comply with the nondiscrimination
requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, as amended, and/or the Health Care and Education Reconciliation
Act of 2010, as amended (to the extent applicable).

applicable health, welfare, retirement, or other similar fringe benefit programs as required by their terms or by applicable law
(the rights to such payments, the “Accrued Rights”). The Accrued Rights shall be payable on their respective
scheduled payment dates.



 


SECTION 5. Termination of Employment During the Protection
Period by the Company Without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason. Subject to Section 6, if a Participant’s
employment is terminated either (x) by the Company or any of its Affiliates without Cause (other than by reason of death or
Disability) or (y) by reason of resignation of the Participant with Good Reason, in each case, during the Protection Period,
then the Participant shall be entitled to the following payments and benefits, subject to Section 9(c):


 


		(a)	Severance Pay. The Company shall pay the Participant (i) the Salary Multiple, and (ii) an
amount equal to the product of (A) the Participant’s Severance Multiple and (B) the Participant’s Severance
Bonus Value, in each case payable in a lump-sum payment on the first regular payroll date that is on or following the 61st day
following such Termination Date.

on the terms set forth in Section 4(b).

metrics deemed achieved at the “target” level.

on or as soon as reasonably practicable following such Participant’s Termination Date) and (ii) such Release shall have
become effective and irrevocable in accordance with its terms, (A) no payments shall be paid or made available to the Participant

any of his or her obligations under this Section 7 (or any similar confidentiality, return of property, non-competition, non-solicitation,
non-disparagement, or intellectual property covenant that runs in favor of the Company or any of its Affiliates and by which such
Participant is bound, including any provision of the Company’s Employee Confidentiality Agreement executed by the Company

all obligations to provide or make available any further payments or benefits to the Participant pursuant to this Plan, and the
Company may require the Participant to repay or forfeit to the Company (on a pre-tax basis) any such payments or benefits that

shall, during the term of the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates and at all times thereafter,
hold in confidence, and not use or disclose to any Person (except for the benefit of the Company and its Affiliates), without written
authorization from the Company, any Confidential Information that the Participant obtains or creates. The foregoing will not prohibit
any Participant from disclosing any Confidential Information that such Participant is required to disclose to, or by, any governmental
or judicial authority; provided, that in such event, such Participant gives the Company prompt written notice thereof so
that the Company or any of its Affiliates may seek an appropriate protective order.



 


In addition, notwithstanding

violations of federal law or regulation to or otherwise cooperating with or providing information requested by any governmental
agency or entity, including, but not limited to, the Department of Justice, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Congress,
and any agency Inspector General, or making other disclosures or receiving an award for information provided to any governmental
agency or entity, in each case that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal law or regulation. No Participant

the Participant has made any such reports or disclosures.


 


		(b)	Return of Property. Each Participant agrees that, at the time of his or her termination

any and all (i) Confidential Information, (ii) all other property developed by the Participant pursuant to his or her
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates, and (iii) all other property of the Company or any of its Affiliates,
including, without limitation, documents, materials, information, keys, key cards, access cards, identification cards, security

		(c)	Assignment of Intellectual Property. Each Participant agrees that he or she shall, without
additional compensation, promptly make full written disclosure to the Company, and hold in trust for the sole right and benefit
of the Company and its Affiliates, all developments, original works of authorship, inventions, concepts, know-how, improvements,
trade secrets, and similar proprietary rights, whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws, which
such Participant may (or has previously) solely or jointly conceive, develop, or reduce to practice, or cause to be conceived,
developed, or reduced to practice, at any time during the Participant’s employment or engagement by the Company or any of
its Affiliates, whether or not during regular working hours, provided they either (i) relate at the time of conception or
reduction to practice of the invention to the business of the Company or any of its Affiliates, or actual or demonstrably anticipated
research or development of the Company or any of its Affiliates; (ii) result from or relate to any work performed for the
Company or any of its Affiliates; or (iii) are developed through the use of equipment, supplies, or facilities of the Company
or any of its Affiliates, or any Confidential Information, or in consultations with personnel of the Company or any of its Affiliates
(collectively, “Developments”). Each Participant acknowledges that all Developments made by the Participant
(solely or jointly with others) within the scope of and during the Participant’s employment or engagement by the Company
or any of its Affiliates are “works made for hire” (to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law) for which the
Participant is, in part, compensated by his or her salary, unless regulated otherwise by law, but that, in the event any such Development
is deemed not to be a work made for hire, such Participant hereby assigns to the Company, or its designee, all of the Participant’s
right, title, and interest throughout the world in and to any such Development.



 



    7


     


    




 


		(d)	Intellectual Property Assistance. Each Participant agrees to assist the Company, or its
designee, at the Company’s expense, in every way to secure the rights of the Company or any of its Affiliates in the Developments
and any copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks, database rights, domain names, mask work rights, moral rights, and other
intellectual property rights relating thereto in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent
information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments, recordations,
and all other instruments that the Company shall deem necessary in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, and transfer such rights
and in order to assign and convey to the Company and its Affiliates the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to
such Developments, and any intellectual property and other proprietary rights relating thereto. Each Participant further agrees
that his or her obligation to execute or cause to be executed any such instrument or papers shall continue after the termination
of such Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates until the expiration of the last such intellectual
property right to expire in any country of the world; provided, that the Company shall reimburse a Participant for any reasonable
expenses incurred in connection with carrying out the foregoing obligation in accordance with the Company’s policies. If
the Company is unable to secure a Participant’s signature to apply for or pursue any application for any United States or
foreign patents or copyright registrations covering Developments or original works of authorship assigned to the Company as above,
then such Participant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as the
Participant’s agent and attorney-in-fact to act for and in the Participant’s behalf and stead to execute and file any
such applications or records and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the application for, prosecution, issuance,
maintenance, and transfer of letters patent or registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if originally executed
by the Participant. Each Participant hereby waives and quitclaims to the Company and its Affiliates any and all claims, of any
nature whatsoever, that the Participant now or hereafter has for past, present, or future infringement of any and all proprietary
rights assigned to the Company or any of its Affiliates.



 


		(e)	Notice of Immunity under the Defend Trade Secrets Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

secret law for any disclosure of a trade secret that is made: (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official
or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) is made in a
complaint or other document that is filed under seal in a lawsuit or other proceeding. If a Participant files a lawsuit for retaliation
by the Company for reporting a suspected violation of law, such Participant may disclose the Company’s trade secrets to his
or her attorney and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding if such Participant (A) files any document containing
the trade secret under seal, and (B) does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order.

		(f)	Non-Competition. No Participant shall, at any time during the Participant’s employment

with such termination under this Plan), directly or indirectly, (i) engage in, or render services to or assist any person
or entity that engages in (either directly or through any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof) any business or activity within the

Company or any of its subsidiaries, or (C) that the Company or any of its subsidiaries has taken active steps to engage in
or acquire (a “Competitive Business”), or (ii) own, finance or invest in any Competitive Business (except
as the passive holder of less than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of capital stock of any public corporation), whether
as an individual, partner, shareholder, director, officer, principal, agent, employee, trustee, consultant, or in any other relationship
or capacity. As used in this Section 7(f), “Restricted Territory” means the United States, Singapore, Ireland,
the United Kingdom and any other city, county, state, territory and country in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is
engaged in or has plans to engage in a Competitive Business as of the termination of such Participant’s employment or engagement
with the Company or any of its Affiliates.



 


		(g)	Non-Solicitation. No Participant shall, at any time during the Participant’s employment
with the Company or any of its Affiliates and for a period of two years following the termination of such Participant’s employment
for any reason (whether or not any payments or benefits are paid or provided in connection with such termination under this Plan),
directly or indirectly (i) solicit (or attempt to solicit) the employment or services of, or hire, any person who, upon the
termination of the Participant’s employment, or within twelve (12) months prior thereto, is or was employed by the Company
or any of its Affiliates, or (ii) encourage, solicit, or induce (or attempt to encourage, solicit, or induce) any current
or prospective client, customer, supplier, consultant, or other business relation of the Company or any of its Affiliates to cease
doing business with, or reduce the amount of business conducted with, the Company or any of its Affiliates or interfere in any
way with any business relationship between the Company or any of its Affiliates and any of the foregoing.



 


		(h)	Non-Disparagement. No Participant shall, during his or her employment with the Company or
any of its Affiliates or at any time thereafter, directly or indirectly, make any disparaging or defamatory comments regarding
the Company or any of its Affiliates or their respective current or former directors, officers, or employees in any respect or
make any comments concerning any aspect of the Participant’s relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates or any
conduct or events which precipitates any termination of a Participant’s employment from the Company or any of its Affiliates.
Subject to Section 7(a), the foregoing shall not apply to truthful disclosures required by applicable law, regulation, or
order of a court or governmental agency.



 


		(i)	Cooperation. Each Participant agrees that, following any termination of his or her employment
with the Company or any of its Affiliates, such Participant will continue to provide reasonable cooperation to the Company and
its Affiliates and its or their respective counsel in connection with any investigation, administrative proceeding, or litigation
relating to any matter that occurred during the Participant’s employment in which the Participant was involved or of which
the Participant has knowledge. The Company shall reimburse a Participant for any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred at the
request of the Company with respect to such Participant’s compliance with this paragraph. Each Participant also agrees that,
in the event the Participant is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including, but not limited to, any government agency) to give
testimony or provide documents (in a deposition, court proceeding, or otherwise), that in any way relates to the Participant’s
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates, the Participant will (subject to applicable law) give prompt notice of such
request to the Company and will make no disclosure until the Company or one of its Affiliates has had a reasonable opportunity
to contest the right of the requesting person or entity to such disclosure.

		(j)	Enforcement. Each of the covenants in this Section 7 shall be independent of the others
and shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company or any of its Affiliates
at law or in equity. Without limitation of the second sentence of this Section 7, (i) if any of the covenants contained
herein are held to be invalid or unenforceable because of the duration of such provisions or the area or scope covered thereby,
each Participant agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the duration, scope, and/or area
of such provision to the maximum and/or broadest duration, scope, and/or area permissible by law, and in its reduced form said
provision shall then be enforceable, and (ii) each Participant expressly acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach
of any of the terms or conditions set forth in this Section 7 may result in substantial, continuing, and irreparable injury
to the Company and its Affiliates, and therefore, in addition to any other remedies that may be available under this Plan, the
Company or any of its Affiliates shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable relief by
a court of appropriate jurisdiction (without posting a bond) in the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Section 7
without the necessity of proving irreparable harm or injury as a result of such breach or threatened breach. Any period of restriction
described in this Section 7 shall be tolled during any period of violation of any of the covenants in this Section 7
and during any other period required for litigation during which the Company or any of its Affiliates seeks to enforce such covenants
against a Participant if it is ultimately determined that the Participant was in breach of such covenants.



 


		(k)	Notice to New Employers. Each Participant agrees to provide any employer by whom such Participant
is employed, or any other Person who engages a Participant as a service provider (in each case, other than the Company or any of
its Affiliates) with written notice of the existence and nature of the covenants contained in this Section 7, along with a
copy of such covenants.



 


		(l)	Covenants Not Exclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, the covenants in this Section 7
are in addition to, and not in lieu of, and do not amend, modify, or supersede, any Similar Covenants.



 


SECTION 8. Other Termination.
If a Participant’s employment is terminated in any circumstance not described in Section 4 or 5 (including as a result
of death, Disability, or retirement), the Participant shall not be entitled to any compensation or benefits from the Company under
this Plan.


 


SECTION 9. Tax Matters.


 


		(a)	Withholding. The Company (or an applicable Affiliate) shall have the right to deduct and
withhold from any amounts payable under this Plan such federal, state, local, foreign, or other taxes or amounts as are required
to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.



 


		(b)	Effect of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. Anything in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding,
in the event it shall be determined that any Payment to or in respect of a Participant would be subject to the Excise Tax, then
the Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Payments is subject to the
Excise Tax, but only if such reduction in the Payments would result in the Participant retaining a larger amount, on an after-tax
basis (including all federal, state, local, and other income taxes and the Excise Tax), than if the Participant received the entire
amount of such Payments without such reduction. The Company (or its applicable Affiliate) shall reduce or eliminate the Payments
in the following order: (1) the portion of the Payments that is attributable to any accelerated vesting of options to purchase
Shares with a per Share exercise price greater than the Fair Market Value per Share on the Change in Control Date (“Underwater
Options”), (2) cash payments that do not constitute deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A),
(3) equity-based awards other than Underwater Options, (4) welfare or in-kind benefits, and (5) cash payments that
do constitute deferred compensation, in each case in reverse order beginning with payments or benefits that are to be paid the
farthest in time from the Determination (as defined below). The determination of whether the Payments shall be reduced as provided
in this Section 9(b) and the amount of such reduction shall be made at the Company’s expense by the Company’s
accounting firm or tax firm (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall provide its determination (the “Determination”),
together with detailed supporting calculations and documentation, to the Company and the Participant within 30 business days after
the Participant’s Termination Date. Absent manifest error, such Determination shall be binding, final, and conclusive upon
the Company and the Participant.



 






    10


     


    

 


 


		(c)	Section 409A of the Code.



 


		(i)	It is intended that the provisions of this Plan comply with Section 409A, or an exemption
thereunder, and all provisions of this Plan shall be construed and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with
the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A.



 


		(ii)	No Participant nor any creditors or beneficiaries of any Participant shall have the right to subject
any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Plan or under any other plan, policy, arrangement,
or agreement of or with the Company or any of its Affiliates (this Plan and such other plans, policies, arrangements, and agreements,
the “Company Plans”) to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment,
or garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A)
payable to a Participant or for a Participant’s benefit under any Company Plan may not be reduced by, or offset against,
any amount owing by the Participant to the Company or any of its Affiliates.



 


		(iii)	For purposes of applying the provisions of Section 409A to the Plan, each separately identified
amount to which a Participant is entitled under the Plan shall be treated as a separate payment. Each installment payment payable
to a Participant under the Plan shall be deemed to be a “separate payment” and the right to a series of installment
payments under the Plan is to be treated as a right to a series of “separate payments,” to the extent possible under
and within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-2(b)(iii) or any successor thereto.



 


		(iv)	To the extent required by Section 409A, any amount payable under the Plan that constitutes
 “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A) subject to, and not exempt from, Section 409A,
payable or provided to a Participant upon a termination of employment shall only be paid or provided to the Participant if such
termination of employment is also a “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), and, for purposes
of the Plan, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation
from service.” If, at the time of a Participant’s separation from service, the Participant is a “specified employee”
(within the meaning of Section 409A, and it is necessary to postpone the commencement of any Payments otherwise payable pursuant
to this Plan as a result of such separation from service to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A,
then the Company will postpone the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction
in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Participant) that are not otherwise exempt from Section 409A
until the first payroll date that occurs after the date that is six (6) months following the Participant’s separation
from service with the Company (as determined under Section 409A). If a Participant dies during the postponement period prior
to the payment of any postponed amount, such amount shall be paid to the personal representative of such Participant’s estate
within sixty (60) days after the date of such Participant’s death.



 






    11


     


    

 


		(v)	All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Plan shall be made or provided in accordance
with the requirements of Section 409A, including, where applicable, the requirements that: (i) any reimbursement is for
expenses incurred during a Participant’s lifetime (or during a shorter period of time specified in this Plan); (ii) the
amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses
eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; and (iii) the right to such in-kind
benefits and reimbursements cannot be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit. Further, in the case of reimbursement payments,
such payments shall be made to the Participant on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which
the underlying fee, cost, or expense is incurred. The Participant shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of
all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on the Participant or for the Participant’s account in connection with any Company
Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have
any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold the Participant harmless from any or all such taxes or penalties. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, the Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Plan are
exempt from or comply with Section 409A.



 


SECTION 10. Miscellaneous.


 


		(a)	Duration; Termination; Amendment; Modification. This Plan shall become effective upon the
closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Effective Date”). The Board may amend
or modify this Plan (including Exhibits A and B) at any time and for any reason. Notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 7,
following its effectiveness this Plan may not be (i) amended or modified in any manner that decreases the payments or benefits
payable to any Participant or otherwise adversely affects any Participant’s economic rights, or (ii) terminated, in
each case, without such Participant’s prior written consent; provided, however, that Section 5 of this
Plan shall only be effective with respect to the first Change in Control that occurs following the Effective Date and the Participants
shall not be entitled to any payments or benefits pursuant to Section 5 of this Plan with respect to any subsequent Change
in Control.



 


		(b)	No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Plan
on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to
insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Plan. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right
or power hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment of any steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power.



 






    12


     


    

 


		(c)	Severability. If any term or provision of this Plan is invalid, illegal, or incapable of
being enforced by any applicable law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Plan shall nonetheless remain
in full force and effect.



 


		(d)	Survival. The provisions of this Plan shall survive and remain binding and enforceable,
notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Protection Period or this Plan, the termination of a Participant’s employment
with the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason or any settlement of the financial rights and obligations arising from
a Participant’s participation hereunder, to the extent necessary to preserve the intended benefits of such provisions.



 


		(e)	Automatic Resignation from Positions Upon Termination. Upon any termination of a Participant’s
employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates for any reason, except as may otherwise be requested by the Company in writing,
such Participant shall be deemed to have resigned from any and all directorships, committee memberships, and any other positions
the Participant holds with the Company or any of its Affiliates (whether or not any payments or benefits are paid or provided in
connection with such termination under this Plan), and such Participant shall promptly execute any documentation evidencing such
resignation requested by the Company.



 


		(f)	Disputes.



 


		(i)	Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, and subject to a Participant’s exhaustion
of remedies as described in Section 10(m) below, all disputes, controversies, and claims arising between the Company
or any of its Affiliates and any Participant concerning the subject matter of this Plan shall be settled by arbitration in accordance
with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time that the arbitration begins, to
the extent not inconsistent with this Plan. The location of the arbitration will be in Miami-Dade County, Florida, or such other
place as the parties to the dispute may mutually agree. In rendering any award or ruling, the arbitrator or arbitrators shall determine
the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive and procedural laws of the State of Delaware to the extent
not pre-empted by federal law. The arbitration shall be conducted by an arbitrator selected in accordance with the aforesaid arbitration
procedures. Any arbitration pursuant to this Section 10(f) shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment upon
any award rendered in such arbitration may be entered in any court, federal or state, having jurisdiction. The parties to any dispute
shall each pay their own costs and expenses (including arbitration fees and attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with
arbitration proceedings and the fees of the arbitrator shall be paid in equal amounts by the parties. Nothing in this Section 10(f) shall
preclude the Company or any of its Affiliates or any Participant from seeking temporary injunctive relief from any federal or state
court located within Miami-Dade County, Florida in connection with or as a supplement to an arbitration hereunder.



 


		(ii)	Without limiting the generality of Section 10(f)(i), to the extent permitted by applicable
law, by participating in this Plan, each Participant irrevocably waives any and all rights to trial by jury in any legal proceeding
arising out of or relating to this Plan.



 






    13


     


    

 


		(g)	No Mitigation or Offset; Enforcement of this Plan. The Company’s obligation to make
the payments provided for in this Plan and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not be affected by any set-off,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense, or other claim, right, or action that the Company may have against any Participant or others.
In no event shall any Participant be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts
payable to the Participant under any of the provisions of this Plan and, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Plan,
such amounts shall not be reduced whether or not the Participant obtains other employment.



 


		(h)	Relation to Other Plans. Nothing in this Plan shall prevent or limit a Participant’s
continuing or future participation in any plan, practice, policy, or program provided by the Company or any of its Affiliates for
which the Participant may qualify, nor shall anything in this Plan limit or otherwise affect any rights the Participant may have
under any contract or agreement with the Company or any of its Affiliates. Vested benefits and other amounts a Participant is otherwise
entitled to receive under any incentive compensation (including any equity award agreement), deferred compensation, retirement,
pension or other plan, practice, policy, or program of, or any contract or agreement with, the Company or any of its Affiliates
shall be payable in accordance with the terms of each such plan, practice, policy, program, contract, or agreement, as the case
may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10(h), the amounts payable under this Plan shall be paid
in lieu of, and by participating in this Plan the Participant waives the right to receive, any cash severance payment or other
payment or benefit payable in connection with a termination of employment similar to or duplicative of any payment or benefit described
in this Plan that the Participant is otherwise eligible to receive upon termination of employment under any other severance plan,
practice, policy, or program of the Company or any of its Affiliates.



 


		(i)	Successors. This Plan shall bind any successor (a “Successor”) to all
or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation,
or otherwise), in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would have been obligated under this Plan if no such
succession had taken place. In the case of any transaction in which a Successor would not, pursuant to the foregoing provision
or by operation of law, be bound by this Plan, the Company shall require such Successor expressly and unconditionally to assume
and agree to perform the Company’s obligations under this Plan, in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company
would have been required to perform such obligations if no such succession had taken place. The term “Company”,
as used in this Plan, shall mean the Company as hereinbefore defined and any Successor and any assignee to such business or assets
that by reason hereof becomes bound by this Plan.



 


		(j)	Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, Participants
will be subject to recoupment policies adopted by the Company, including any policy adopted pursuant to the requirements of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other law or the listing requirements of any national securities exchange
on which the Shares may be listed.



 


		(k)	No Right to Continued Service. Nothing contained in the Plan shall (i) confer upon
any Participant any right to continue as an employee of the Company or any of its Affiliates, (ii) constitute any contract
of employment or agreement to continue employment for any particular period, or (iii) interfere in any way with the right
of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate a service relationship with any Participant, with or without cause.



 






    14


     


    

 


		(l)	Interpretation; Administration. Subject to Section 10(a) hereof, the Plan shall
be interpreted, administered and operated by the Board, provided that the Board may delegate any of its duties hereunder to a subcommittee
of the Board, or to one or more officers of the Company from time to time as it may designate, other than to any Participant in
the Plan and subject to applicable law (the “Administrator”). The Administrator shall have complete authority,
subject to the terms of the Plan, to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to
the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. All decisions, interpretations
and other actions of the Administrator (including with respect to whether a severance-qualifying termination has occurred under
the Plan) shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Plan.



 


		(m)	Claims Procedures.



 


		(i)	Any Participant who does not receive a benefit under this Plan that he or she feels entitled to
receive may file a written claim with the Administrator, explaining the reasons for such claim (such Participant, a “claimant”).
The claimant will be informed of the Administrator’s decision with respect to the claim within ninety (90) days after it
is filed. Under special circumstances, the Administrator may require an additional period of not more than ninety (90) days to
review the claim. In such event, the claimant will receive a written notice of that fact, which will also indicate the special
circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Administrator expects to make a determination with respect
to the claim. If the extension is required due to the claimant’s failure to submit information necessary to decide the claim,
the period for making the determination will be tolled from the date on which the extension notice is sent to the claimant until
the date on which the claimant responds to the Administrator’s request for information. If the claimant is not notified within
the ninety (90) day (or, if applicable, extended) period, the claim shall be deemed denied. The Administrator shall have full discretion
to deny or grant a claim in whole or in part.



 


		(ii)	If a claim is denied (or deemed to be denied) in whole or in part, or any adverse benefit determination
is made with respect to the claim, the claimant will be provided with a written notice setting forth the reason for the determination,
along with specific references to Plan provisions on which the determination is based. This notice will also provide an explanation
of what, if any, additional information is needed to evaluate the claim (and why such information is necessary), together with
an explanation of the Plan’s claims review procedure for the appeal of such denial and the time limits applicable to such
procedure, as well as a statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA
following an adverse benefit determination on review.



 


		(iii)	If the claim has been denied, or an adverse benefit determination has been made, the claimant may
request that the Administrator review the denial. The request must be in writing, must be made within sixty (60) days after written
notification of denial, and should explain the claimant’s disagreement with the denial or adverse benefit determination.
In connection with this request, the claimant (or the claimant’s duly authorized representative) may (A) be provided,
upon written request to the Administrator and free of charge, with reasonable access to (and copies of) all documents, records,
and other information relevant to the claim, and (B) submit to the Administrator written comments, documents, records, and
other information related to the claim.



 


		(iv)	The Administrator will make a final written decision on a claim review within sixty (60) days after
receipt of a request for a review. Under special circumstances, the claim may take more time to review, and an additional processing
period of up to sixty (60) days may be required. If that happens, the claimant will receive a written notice of that fact, which
will also indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and the date by which the Administrator expects to
make a determination with respect to the claim. If the extension is required due to the claimant’s failure to submit information
necessary to decide the claim, the period for making the determination will be tolled from the date on which the extension notice
is sent to the claimant until the date on which the claimant responds to the Administrator’s request for information.



 






    15


     


    

 


		(v)	The Administrator’s decision on the claim for review will be communicated to the claimant
in writing. If an adverse benefit determination is made with respect to the claim, the notice will include (A) the specific
reason(s) for any adverse benefit determination, with references to the specific Plan provisions on which the determination
is based, (B) a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon written request to the Administrator and free of
charge, reasonable access to (and copies of) all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim and (C) a
statement of the claimant’s right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following an adverse benefit
determination on review. If the claimant is not notified within the sixty (60) day (or, if applicable, extended) period, the claim
review shall be deemed denied. The decision of the Administrator is final and binding on all parties.



 


		(vi)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, no legal action for benefits under this
Plan (including under Section 10(f)) may be brought until the claims procedures described in this Section 10(m) have
been exhausted. Any such legal action for benefits under this Plan must be brought within twelve (12) months following the date
that a claim review is denied by the Administrator (or deemed denied in accordance with the preceding paragraph).



 


		(n)	Governing Law. This Plan shall be deemed to be made in the State of Florida, and, to the
extent not preempted by ERISA, the validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Plan in all respects shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to its principles of conflicts of law.



 


		(o)	Headings and References. The headings of this Plan are inserted for convenience only and
neither constitute a part of this Plan nor affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Plan. When a reference in this
Plan is made to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Plan unless otherwise indicated.



 


		(p)	Construction. For purposes of this Plan, the words “include” and “including”,
and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without
limitation”. The term “or” is not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent”
shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”.



 


		(q)	Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted by this Plan will be
made in writing and all such notices or communications will be deemed to have been duly given when delivered or (unless otherwise
specified) mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

under this Plan.
