issuance under the Plan. In no event shall the total number of Shares issued (counting each reissuance of a Share that was previously issued and then forfeited or repurchased by the Company as a separate issuance) under the Plan upon exercise of
Awards exceed one hundred eighty (180) million Shares (adjusted in proportion to any adjustments under Section 15(a)) over the term of the Plan.

 (a) No Rights as a Service Provider. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing their
relationship as a Service Provider, nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Participant or the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause or to adjust the compensation of
any Participant.

and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Documentation and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Award shall be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of

 (ii) Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on
the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the Awarded Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Award. The

Award in any manner that results in the issuance of Shares shall decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for issuance under the Award, by the number of Shares as to which the Award is exercised.

  
 (c) Misconduct. If a Participant is determined by the
Administrator to have committed Misconduct then, unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as a Service Provider, neither the Participant, the Participant’s estate nor such other person who may then hold any Award

relating to the exercise of any Award, the Administrator may in its discretion require that such tax obligation be satisfied in a manner satisfactory to the Company. With respect to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the payment of
such taxes before Shares deliverable pursuant to such exercise are transferred to the holder of the Award. 
  

 9 








 (ii) With respect to the exercise of an Award, a Participant may elect (a “Withholding

an ISO granted to any Employee who, at the time the ISO is granted owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than
110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

 10 








 (c) Form of Consideration. The Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration
for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator shall determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration, to the extent permitted by
Applicable Laws, may consist entirely of:

 (ii) other Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired
upon exercise of an Option, have been owned by the Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option
shall be exercised;

or 
  
 (iv) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment;
or 
  
 (v) such other consideration and method of payment for the
issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws. 
  
 (d) Termination of Relationship as Service Provider. When a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates, other than from Misconduct, death or Disability, the Participant’s Option may be exercised within the period
of time specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination or such longer period of time determined by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of the termination but before expiration
of the Option) not to exceed five (5) years (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified period of time in the Plan or the Award Documentation, the Option
shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the date Participant ceased to be a Service Provider. If, on the date of termination, such Participant’s Option is not fully vested, then the unvested Shares shall revert to the Plan. If,
after termination, the Participant’s Option is not fully exercised within the time specified, then the unexercised Shares covered by such Option shall revert to the Plan and such Option shall terminate. 
  
 (e) Death or Disability of Participant. If a Participant’s status
as a Service Provider terminates from death or Disability, then the Participant or the Participant’s estate, or such other person as may hold the Option, as the case may be, shall have the right for a period of twelve (12) months following the
date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or for such other period as the Administrator may fix, to exercise the Option to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such Option on the date of death or
termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or to such extent as may otherwise be specified by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of death or Disability but before expiration of the Option), provided the actual
date of exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the Option. A Participant’s estate shall mean his legal representative or any person who acquires the right to exercise an Option by reason of the Participant’s death or
Disability.

return to providing services as a Director, Employee, or Consultant; (ii) sick leave; (iii) military leave; (iv) any other leave of absence approved by the Administrator, provided such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days, unless
reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by the Company and issued and promulgated to employees in writing; or (v) in the
case of transfer between locations of the Company or among the Company and its Affiliates. In the case of any Participant on an approved leave of absence, the Administrator may make such provisions respecting suspension of vesting of the Option
while on a leave described in subparts (i) through (v) above and/or resumption of vesting on return from such leave as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event shall an Option be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the
Option. 
  
 (g) ISO Rules. The Option Agreement for each
ISO shall contain a statement that the Option it documents is an ISO. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which all ISOs held by a Participant are exercisable
for the first time by such Participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such excess Shares shall be treated as Shares subject to an NSO. For purposes of this subsection 8(k), ISOs shall be taken into account in the order in which they were
granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an ISO shall be determined as of the time the ISO with respect to such Shares is granted. 
  
 (h) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted based on
such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time that such offer is made.

only be granted to Directors who are not also Employees (“Outside Director”). All grants of Options to Outside Directors pursuant to this Section 9 shall be made strictly in accordance with the following provisions:

Option to purchase 12,500 Shares under the Plan (the “First Option”) on April 30, July 31, October 31 and December 15 or the first business day following such date (the Grant Date), in the year that such Outside Director is first elected
or appointed as a member of the Board; provided that an Outside Director who has previously been elected as a member of the Board on the Effective Date set forth in Section 14 below shall not be granted a First Option under the Plan. Thereafter, on
April 30, July 31, October 31 and December 15 or the first business day following such date, each Outside Director reported as being elected at the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders shall be granted an additional Option to purchase
6,250 Shares under the Plan (the “Annual Option”). Further, subject to the right of any Outside Director who has not previously been elected as a member of the Board to receive a First Option, if there are insufficient Shares available
under the Plan for each Outside Director who is eligible to receive an Annual Option (as adjusted) in any year, the number of Shares subject to each Annual Option in such year shall equal the total number of available Shares then 

  

 12 








 
remaining under the Plan divided by the number of Outside Directors who are eligible to receive an Annual Option on such date, as rounded down to avoid
fractional Shares. All Options granted to Outside Directors shall be subject to the following terms and conditions of this Section 9. All Options granted to Outside Directors pursuant to the Plan shall be NSOs. 
  
 (b) Consideration. The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be
issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, may consist entirely of (i) check, (ii) other Shares which (x) either have been owned by the Participant for more than six months on the date of surrender or were not acquired,
directly or indirectly, from the Company, and (y) have a Fair Market Value per Share on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Option shall be exercised, (iii) delivery of a properly executed
exercise notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds required to pay the exercise price, or (iv) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. 
  
 (c) Term and Vesting. Each Option granted to an Outside Director shall
be for a term of ten years. Each First Option shall vest and become exercisable according to the following schedule: for Options first granted on April 30, one-third on April 30 of the calendar year following the date of grant; the remaining
two-thirds vest in monthly increments thereafter, through April 30 of the third calendar year following the date of grant. Options granted on any other Grant Date following appointment to the Board shall vest and become exercisable one-third on the
anniversary of the grant date and the remaining two thirds will vest in monthly increments thereafter for the next two years. Each Annual Option shall vest and become exercisable according to the following schedule: one-third on April 30 of the
calendar year following the date of grant; the remaining two-thirds vest in monthly increments thereafter, through April 30 of the third calendar year following the date of grant. Any Shares acquired by an Outside Director upon exercise of an Option
shall not be freely transferable until six months after the date stockholder approval referred to in Section 21 is obtained. 
  
 (d) Termination of Service as an Outside Director. If an Outside Director’s tenure on the Board is terminated for any reason other than
Misconduct, then the Outside Director or the Outside Director’s estate, as the case may be, shall have the right for a period of twenty-four (24) months following the date such tenure is terminated to exercise the Option to the extent the
Outside Director was entitled to exercise such Option on the date the Outside Director’s tenure terminated; provided the actual date of exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the Option. An Outside Director’s
“estate” shall mean the Outside Director’s legal representative or any person who acquires the right to exercise an Option by reason of the Outside Director’s death or disability. 
  
 (e) Effect of Change of Control. Upon a Change of Control, all Options
held by an Outside Director shall become fully vested and exercisable, irrespective of any other provisions of the Outside Director’s Option Agreement. 
  
 (f) Effect of Other Plan Provisions. The other provisions of this Plan shall apply to the Options granted automatically pursuant to this Section 9,
except to the extent such other provisions are inconsistent with this Section 9.

 10. Stock Appreciation Rights. 
  
 (a) Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, SARs may be granted to Service Providers at any
time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine the number of SARs granted to any Participant. 
  
 (b) Exercise Price and other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the
provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of SARs granted under the Plan; provided, however, that no SAR may have a term of more than ten (10) years from the date of grant. In the case of an SAR,
the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. The exercise price for the Shares or cash to be issued pursuant to an already granted SAR may not be changed without the consent of the
Company’s stockholders. This shall include, without limitation, a repricing of the SAR as well as an SAR exchange program whereby the Participant agrees to cancel an existing SAR in exchange for an Option, SAR or other Award. 
  
 (c) Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of an SAR, a Participant
shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying: 
  
 (i) The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times 
  
 (ii) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. 
  
 (d) Payment upon Exercise of SAR. At the discretion of the Administrator, payment for an SAR may be in cash, Shares
or a combination thereof. 
  
 (e) SAR Agreement. Each SAR
grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “SAR Agreement”) that shall specify the exercise price, the term of the SAR, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole
discretion, shall determine. 
  
 (f) Expiration of SARs. An
SAR granted under the Plan shall expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Documentation. 
  
 (g) Termination of Relationship as Service Provider. When a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates, other than from Misconduct,
death or Disability, the Participant’s Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised within the period of time specified in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement to the extent that the Stock Appreciation Right is vested on the date of termination
or such longer period of time determined by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of the termination but before expiration of the Stock Appreciation Right) not to exceed five (5) years (but in no event later than the expiration of
the term of such Stock Appreciation Right as set forth in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement). In the absence of a specified period of time in the Plan or the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, the Stock Appreciation Right shall remain
exercisable for three (3) months following the date Participant ceased to be a Service Provider. If, on the date of termination, such Participant’s Stock Appreciation Right is not fully vested, then the unvested 

  

 14 








 
Shares shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Participant’s Stock Appreciation Right is not fully exercised within the time specified,
then the unexercised Shares covered by such Stock Appreciation Right shall revert to the Plan and such Stock Appreciation Right shall terminate. 
  
 (h) Death or Disability of Participant. If a Participant’s status as a Service Provider terminates from death or Disability, then the
Participant or the Participant’s estate, or such other person as may hold the SAR, as the case may be, shall have the right for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for
Disability, or for such other period as the Administrator may fix, to exercise the SAR to the extent the Participant was entitled to exercise such SAR on the date of death or termination of status as a Service Provider for Disability, or to such
extent as may otherwise be specified by the Administrator (which may so specify after the date of death or Disability but before expiration of the SAR), provided the actual date of exercise is in no event after the expiration of the term of the SAR.
A Participant’s estate shall mean his legal representative or any person who acquires the right to exercise an SAR by reason of the Participant’s death or Disability. 
  
 (i) Events Not Deemed Terminations: Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as a
Service Provider, such Participant’s status as a Service Provider shall not be considered interrupted in the case of: (i) a leave of absence (approved by the Administrator) by a Participant who intends throughout such leave to return to
providing services as a Director, Employee, or Consultant; (ii) sick leave; (iii) military leave; (iv) any other leave of absence approved by the Administrator, provided such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days, unless
reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to formal policy adopted from time to time by the Company and issued and promulgated to employees in writing; or (v) in the
case of transfer between locations of the Company or among the Company and its Affiliates. In the case of any Participant on an approved leave of absence, the Administrator may make such provisions respecting suspension of vesting of the Stock
Appreciation Right while on a leave described in subparts (i) through (v) above and/or resumption of vesting on return from such leave as it may deem appropriate, except that in no event shall a Stock Appreciation Right be exercised after the
expiration of the term set forth in the Stock Appreciation Right. 
  
 (j) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an SAR previously granted based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the
Participant at the time that such offer is made. 
  
 11.
Restricted Stock. 
  
 (a) Grant of Restricted Stock.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Stock may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The Administrator shall have complete
discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to a Restricted Stock award granted to any Participant, and (ii) the conditions that must be satisfied, the vesting of which typically will be based on continued provision of services and/or
satisfaction of Performance Goals. Restricted Stock that is based only on continued service may not vest for at least three years from the date of grant. Restricted Stock that is based on satisfaction of Performance Goals may not vest for at least
one year 

  

 15 








 
from the date of grant. Once the Shares are issued, voting, dividend and other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to Restricted Stock.

  
 (b) Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the
provisions of the Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions, including the purchase price (provided it is at least $0.01 per Share of Restricted Stock to be issued), of Restricted Stock granted under the Plan.
Restricted Stock grants shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions determined by the Administrator at the time the Restricted Stock is granted. Any certificates representing the Restricted Stock shall bear such legends as shall be
determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (c) Restricted Stock Award
Documentation. Each Restricted Stock grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “Restricted Stock Award Documentation”) that shall specify the purchase price (if any) and such other terms conditions, and restrictions as
the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine. 
  
 12. Restricted Stock Units. 
  
 (a) Grant of
Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Stock Units may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. The
Administrator shall have complete discretion to determine (i) the number of Shares subject to each Restricted Stock Units award, and (ii) the conditions that must be satisfied, the vesting of which typically will be based on continued provision of
services and/or satisfaction of Performance Goals. Any Restricted Stock Units award that is based only on continued service may not vest for three years from the date of grant. Any Restricted Stock Units award that is based on satisfaction of
Performance Goals may not vest for one year from the date of grant. Until the Shares are issued, no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to Restricted Stock Units. 
  
 (b) Other Terms. The Administrator, subject to the provisions of the
Plan, shall have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions, including the purchase price (provided it is at least $0.01 per Share to be issued), of Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan. Restricted Stock Units awards shall be
subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions determined by the Administrator at the time the Restricted Stock Units award is granted. Restricted Stock Units shall be denominated in units with each unit equivalent to one Share for purposes of
determining the number of Shares subject to any Restricted Stock Units award. 
  
 (c) Restricted Stock Units Agreement. Each Restricted Stock Units grant shall be evidenced by Award Documentation (a “Restricted Stock Units Agreement”) that shall specify the purchase price
(at least $0.01 per Share to be issued) and such other terms conditions, and restrictions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Each Restricted Stock Units Agreement shall be subject to all applicable terms of the Plan and
may be subject to any other terms that are not inconsistent with the Plan. A Restricted Stock Units Agreement may provide for dividend equivalent units. 
  
 (d) Settlement. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units may be made in the form of: (i) cash, (ii) Shares or (iii) any combination, as
determined by the Administrator and may be 

  

 16 








 
settled in a lump sum or in installments. Distribution to a Participant of an amount (or amounts) from settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units may be
deferred to a date after settlement as determined by the Administrator. The amount of a deferred distribution may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents. Until an Award of Restricted Stock Units is settled, the number of such
Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to the Plan. 
  
 13. Non-Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by
the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the recipient, only by the recipient. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, the Award Documentation for such Award shall contain such additional terms and
conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate. 
  
 14.
Leaves of Absence. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise or as otherwise required by Applicable Laws, vesting of Awards granted hereunder shall cease commencing on the thirty-first day of any unpaid leave of absence and shall only
recommence upon return to active service. 
  
 15. Adjustments
Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Merger or Asset Sale. 
  
 (a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Award, the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized
for issuance under the Plan but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an Award, in each case as set forth in Section 3, as well as the price per share of Common Stock
covered by each such outstanding Award and the 162(m) annual share issuance limits under Section 6(d) shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse
stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that
conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.” Such adjustment shall be made by the Compensation Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be
final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be
made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award. 
  
 (b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator shall notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such
proposed transaction. The Administrator in its discretion may provide for a Participant to have the right to exercise his or her Award until ten (10) days prior to such transaction as to all of the Awarded Stock covered thereby, including Shares as
to which the Award would not otherwise be exercisable. In addition, the Administrator may provide that any Company repurchase option or forfeiture rights applicable to any Award shall lapse 100%, and that any Award vesting shall accelerate 100%,
provided the proposed dissolution or liquidation takes place at the time and in 

  

 17 








 
the manner contemplated. To the extent it has not been previously exercised or vested an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such
proposed action. 
  
 (c) Merger or Asset Sale. 

 
 (i) Stock Options and SARs. In the event of a merger of the
Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, each outstanding Option and SAR shall be assumed or an equivalent option or SAR substituted by the successor corporation or related corporation.
In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the Option or SAR, the Participant shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise the Option or SAR as to all of the Awarded Stock, including Shares as to which it
would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option or SAR becomes fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger or sale of assets, the Administrator shall notify the Participant in writing or
electronically that the Option or SAR shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and the Option or SAR shall terminate upon the expiration of such period. For the purposes of this
subsection, the Option or SAR shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, the Option or SAR confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the Option or SAR immediately prior to the
merger or sale of assets, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were
offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common stock of the
successor corporation or related corporation, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option or SAR, for each Share of Awarded Stock subject to the
Option or SAR, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or related corporation equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or sale of assets. 
  
 (ii) Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. In the event of a
merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company, repurchase rights on Shares of Restricted Stock, or any consideration into which such Shares of Restricted Stock are converted as
part of such merger or sale, may be assigned to the successor corporation or related corporation, and each outstanding RSU shall be assumed or an equivalent award substituted by the successor corporation or related corporation of the successor
corporation. If the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for such Awards, then Participants shall fully vest in such Awards. If RSUs become fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a merger
or sale of assets, the Administrator shall notify Participants in writing or electronically that their RSUs shall be fully vested and exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days from the date of such notice, and such RSUs shall terminate upon the
expiration of such period. RSUs shall be considered assumed if, following the merger or sale of assets, such RSUs confer the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to such RSUs immediately prior to the merger or sale of assets, the
consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the merger or sale of assets by holders of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a
choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the 

  

 18 








 
outstanding shares of Common Stock); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the merger or sale of assets is not solely common stock of the
successor corporation or related corporation, then the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received, for each Share subject to such RSUs, to be solely in the form of common stock of
the successor corporation or related corporation equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the merger or sale of assets. 
  
 (d) Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided in a Participant’s agreement for services as an employee of the
Company, if, within one year after a Change of Control has occurred, such Participant’s status as an employee of the Company is terminated by the Company (including for this purpose any successor to the Company due to such Change of Control and
any employer that is an Affiliate of such successor) for any reason other than for Misconduct or, if applicable, terminated by such Participant as a Constructive Termination, then all Awards held by such Participant shall become fully vested for
exercise upon the date of termination of such status, irrespective of the vesting provisions of such Participant’s Award Documentations. 
  
 16. Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Award shall be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting
such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be provided to each recipient within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 
  
 17. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 
  
 (a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time amend, alter,
suspend or terminate the Plan. 
  
 (b) Stockholder
Approval. The Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws and shall obtain stockholder approval for any amendment to the Plan to increase the number of
shares available under the Plan, to change the class of employees eligible to participate in the Plan or to provide for additional material benefits under the Plan. 
  
 (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair
the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the
Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 
  

18. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 
  
 (a) Legal Compliance. Shares shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of the Award or the issuance and delivery
of such Shares (or the cash equivalent thereof) shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company
will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to: (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and/or (b) completion of any registration or
other qualification of such Shares under Applicable Laws. The 

  

 19 








 
Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or to effect compliance with the
registration, qualification or listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure to do so. 
  
 (b) Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or
receipt of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising or receiving such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention
to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required. 
  
 19. Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority
is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder (or the cash equivalent thereof), shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares (or
the cash equivalent thereof) as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 
  
 20. Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall
be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 
  
 21.
Stockholder Approval. This Plan shall be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date of adoption by the Board. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained in the manner and to the degree
required under Applicable Laws.
