		3.	Administration



 


(a)          Administration
of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Board or by such committee or committees as may be appointed by the Board
from time to time. To the extent allowed by applicable laws, the Board by resolution may authorize an officer or officers to grant
Awards (other than stock Awards) to other officers and employees of the Company and its Affiliates, and, to the extent of such
authorization, such officer or officers shall be the Administrator.


 


(b)          Powers
of the Administrator. The Administrator shall have all the powers vested in it by the terms of the Plan and the resolution
of the Board, such powers to include authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to grant Awards under the Plan, prescribe
Grant Agreements evidencing such Awards and establish programs for granting Awards.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


The Administrator
shall have full power and authority to take all other actions necessary to carry out the purpose and intent of the Plan, including,
but not limited to, the authority to: (i) determine the eligible persons to whom, and the time or times at which Awards shall
be granted; (ii) determine the types of Awards to be granted; (iii) determine the number of shares to be covered by or
used for reference purposes for each Award; (iv) impose such terms, limitations, restrictions and conditions upon any such
Award as the Administrator shall deem appropriate; (v) modify, amend, extend or renew outstanding Awards, or accept the surrender
of outstanding Awards and substitute new Awards (provided however, that, except as provided in Section 7 of the Plan, any
modification that would materially adversely affect any outstanding Award shall not be made without the consent of the holder and
no such modification, amendment or substitution that results in repricing the Award shall be made without prior stockholder approval);
(vi) accelerate or otherwise change the time in which an Award may be exercised or becomes payable and to waive or accelerate
the lapse, in whole or in part, of any restriction or condition with respect to such Award, including, but not limited to, any
restriction or condition with respect to the vesting or exercisability of an Award following termination of any grantee’s
employment or other relationship with the Company; provided, however, that no such waiver or acceleration
of lapse restrictions shall be made with respect to a performance-based stock award granted to an executive officer of the Company
if such waiver or acceleration is inconsistent with Code section 162(m); (vii) establish objectives and conditions, if any,
for earning Awards and determining whether Awards will be paid with respect to a performance period; and (viii) for any purpose,
including but not limited to, qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws or otherwise complying with the regulatory
requirements of local or foreign jurisdictions, to establish, amend, modify, administer or terminate sub-plans, and prescribe,
amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to such sub-plans.


 


The Administrator
shall have full power and authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to administer, construe and interpret the Plan, Grant
Agreements and all other documents relevant to the Plan and Awards issued thereunder, to establish, amend, rescind and interpret
such rules, regulations, agreements, guidelines and instruments for the administration of the Plan and for the conduct of its business
as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable, and to correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency
in the Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the extent the Administrator shall deem it desirable to carry it into effect.


 


(c)          Non-Uniform
Determinations. The Administrator’s determinations under the Plan (including without limitation, determinations of the
persons to receive Awards, the form, amount and timing of such Awards, the terms and provisions of such Awards and the Grant Agreements
evidencing such Awards, and the ramifications of a Change in Control upon outstanding Awards) need not be uniform and may be made
by the Administrator selectively among Awards or persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan, whether
or not such persons are similarly situated.


 


(d)          Limited
Liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no member of the Administrator shall be liable for any action taken or decision
made in good faith relating to the Plan or any Award thereunder.


 


(e)          Indemnification.
To the maximum extent permitted by law and by the Company’s articles of association, the members of the Administrator shall
be indemnified by the Company in respect of all their activities under the Plan except in the case of gross negligence or willful
misconduct.


 


(f)          Effect
of Administrator’s Decision. All actions taken and decisions and determinations made by the Administrator on all matters
relating to the Plan pursuant to the powers vested in it hereunder shall be in the Administrator’s sole and absolute discretion
and shall be conclusive and binding on all parties concerned, including the Company, its stockholders, any participants in the
Plan and any other employee, consultant, or director of the Company, and their respective successors in interest.


 


		4.	Shares Available for the Plan



 


Subject to adjustments
as provided in Section 7(d) of the Plan, the Common Shares that may be issued with respect to Awards granted under
the Plan shall not exceed an aggregate of 40,000,000 shares, and of those the maximum number of shares that may be issued under
this Plan pursuant to incentive stock options intended to qualify under Code section 422 is 40,000,000. Subject to the provisions
of the law, the Company shall maintain an authorized capital comprising such number of shares for Awards under the Plan, subject
to adjustments as provided in Section 7(d) of the Plan. If any Award, or portion of an Award, under the Plan expires
or terminates unexercised, becomes unexercisable, is settled in cash without delivery of Common Shares, or is forfeited or otherwise
terminated or canceled as to any shares, the shares subject to such Award shall thereafter be available for further Awards under
the Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, shares used to pay the exercise price of an Award or tax obligations
shall not be available again for other Awards under the Plan.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


Subject to adjustments
as provided in Section 7(d) of the Plan, the maximum number of Common Shares subject to Awards of any combination that may be granted
during any one fiscal year of the Company to any one individual under this Plan shall be limited to 4,000,000 shares. Such per-individual
limit shall not be adjusted to effect a restoration of Common Shares with respect to which the related Award is terminated, surrendered
or canceled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restriction contained in this paragraph shall not apply until the earliest of:
(1) the first material modification of the Plan (including any increase in the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance hereunder);
(2) the issuance of all of the Common Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan; (3) the expiration of the Plan; (4) the first
meeting of stockholders at which directors are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third (3rd) calendar year following
the calendar year in which occurred the first registration of an equity security by the Company under Section 12 of the Securities
Act of 1934, as amended; or (5) such other date required by Section 162(m) of the Code.


 


		5.	Participation



 


Participation in the
Plan shall be open to all employees, officers, and directors of, and other individuals providing bona fide services to or for,
the Company, or of any Affiliate of the Company, as may be selected by the Administrator from time to time. The Administrator may
also grant Awards to individuals in connection with hiring, recruiting or otherwise, prior to the date the individual first performs
services for the Company or an Affiliate, provided that such Awards shall not become vested or exercisable, and no shares shall
be issued to such individual, prior to the date the individual first commences performance of such services.


 


		6.	Awards



 


The Administrator,
in its sole discretion, establishes the terms of all Awards granted under the Plan. Awards may be granted individually or in tandem
with other types of Awards, concurrently with or with respect to outstanding Awards. All Awards are subject to the terms and conditions
provided in the Grant Agreement.


 


(a)          Stock
Options. The Administrator may from time to time grant to eligible participants Awards of incentive stock options as that term
is defined in Code section 422 or nonstatutory stock options; provided, however, that Awards of incentive stock
options shall be limited to employees of the Company or of any current or hereafter existing “parent corporation”
or “subsidiary corporation,” as defined in Code sections 424(e) and (f), respectively, of the Company and any
other individuals who are eligible to receive incentive stock options under the provisions of Code section 422. Options must
have an exercise price at least equal to Fair Market Value as of the date of grant and not lower than Par Value and may not have
a term in excess of ten years’ duration. No stock option shall be an incentive stock option unless so designated by the Administrator
at the time of grant or in the Grant Agreement evidencing such stock option.


 


(b)          Stock
Appreciation Rights. The Administrator may from time to time grant to eligible participants Awards of Stock Appreciation Rights
(“SAR”). An SAR entitles the grantee to receive, subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Grant Agreement,
a payment having an aggregate value equal to the product of (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value on the exercise date of
one Common Share over (B) the base price per share specified in the Grant Agreement, times (ii) the number of shares specified
by the SAR, or portion thereof, which is exercised. The base price per share specified in the Grant Agreement shall not be less
than the lower of the Fair Market Value on the grant date (but in no case lower than Par Value) or the exercise price of any tandem
stock option Award to which the SAR is related. No SAR shall have a term longer than ten years’ duration. Payment by the
Company of the amount receivable upon any exercise of an SAR may be made by the delivery of Common Shares or cash, or any combination
of Common Shares and cash, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator. If upon settlement of the exercise of an
SAR a grantee is to receive a portion of such payment in Common Shares, the number of shares shall be determined by dividing such
portion by the Fair Market Value of a Common Share on the exercise date, it being understood that no Common Shares shall be issued
below Par Value. No fractional shares shall be used for such payment and the Administrator shall determine whether cash shall be
given in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated. The Administrator shall obtain a
report from an independent auditor (réviseur d’entreprises agréé) confirming that the in-kind
consideration upon exercise of a SAR has a value at least equivalent to the number and value of Shares issued in counterpart.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


		(c)	Stock Awards. 



 


(i)          The
Administrator may from time to time grant stock awards to eligible participants in such amounts, on such terms and conditions,
and for such consideration, including no consideration or such minimum consideration as may be required by law, as it shall determine.
A stock award may be denominated in Common Shares or other securities, stock-equivalent units or restricted stock units, securities
or debentures convertible into Common Shares, or any combination of the foregoing and may be paid in Common Shares or other securities,
in cash, or in a combination of Common Shares or other securities and cash, all as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.


 


(ii)         The
Administrator may grant stock awards in a manner constituting “qualified performance-based compensation” within the
meaning of Code section 162(m). The grant of, or lapse of restrictions with respect to, such performance-based stock awards shall
be based upon one or more Performance Measures and objective performance targets to be attained relative to those Performance Measures,
all as determined by the Administrator. Performance targets may include minimum, maximum, intermediate and target levels of performance,
with the size of the performance-based stock award or the lapse of restrictions with respect thereto based on the level attained.
A performance target may be stated as an absolute value or as a value determined relative to prior performance, one or more indices,
budget, one or more peer group companies, any other standard selected by the Administrator, or any combination thereof. The Administrator
shall be authorized to make adjustments in the method of calculating attainment of Performance Measures and performance targets
in recognition of: (A) extraordinary or non-recurring items; (B) changes in tax laws; (C) changes in generally accepted accounting
principles or changes in accounting policies; (D) charges related to restructured or discontinued operations; (E) restatement of
prior period financial results; and (F) any other unusual, non-recurring gain or loss that is separately identified and quantified
in the Company’s financial statements; provided that the Administrator’s decision as to whether such adjustments will
be made with respect to any “covered employee,” within the meaning of Code section 162(m), is determined when the performance
targets are established for the applicable performance period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may, at its sole
discretion, modify the performance results upon which Awards are based under the Plan to offset any unintended results arising
from events not anticipated when the Performance Measures and performance targets were established; provided, that such modifications
may be made with respect to an Award granted to any “covered employee,” within the meaning of Code section 162(m),
only to the extent permitted by Code section 162(m) if the Award was intended to constitute “qualified performance-based
compensation” within the meaning of Code section 162(m). Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Administrator
is not authorized to waive or accelerate the lapse of restrictions on a performance-based stock award granted to any “covered
employee,” within the meaning of Code section 162(m), except upon death, disability or a change of ownership or control of
the Company. In the event that a Change in Control occurs after a performance-based stock award has been granted but before completion
of the applicable performance period, a pro rata portion of such Award shall become payable (or a pro rata portion of the lapse
restrictions shall lapse, as applicable) as of the date of the Change in Control to the extent otherwise earned on the basis of
achievement of the pro rata portion of the Performance Measures and performance targets relating to the portion of the performance
period completed as of the date of the Change in Control.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


		7.	Miscellaneous



 


(a)          Withholding
of Taxes. Grantees and holders of Awards shall pay to the Company or its Affiliate, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator
for payment of, any taxes required to be withheld in respect of Awards under the Plan no later than the date of the event creating
the tax liability. The Company or its Affiliate may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment
of any kind otherwise due to the grantee or holder of an Award. In the event that payment to the Company or its Affiliate of such
tax obligations is made in Common Shares, such shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value on the applicable date for such purposes
and shall not exceed in amount the minimum statutory tax withholding obligation.


 


(b)          Loans.
To the extent otherwise permitted by law, the Company or its Affiliate may make or guarantee loans to grantees to assist grantees
in exercising Awards and satisfying any withholding tax obligations.


 


(c)          Transferability.
Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, and in any event in the case of an incentive stock option or a stock appreciation
right granted with respect to an incentive stock option, no Award granted under the Plan shall be transferable by a grantee otherwise
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in accord with the provisions
of the immediately preceding sentence, an Award may be exercised during the lifetime of the grantee, only by the grantee or, during
the period the grantee is under a legal disability, by the grantee’s guardian or legal representative.


 


(d)          Adjustments
for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.


 


		(i)	Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. In the event of a stock dividend of,
or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Common Shares, (A) the maximum number of shares of such Common Shares as to
which Awards may be granted under this Plan and the maximum number of shares with respect to which Awards may be granted during
any one fiscal year of the Company to any individual, as provided in Section 4 of the Plan, and (B) the number of shares
covered by and the exercise price and other terms of outstanding Awards, shall, without further action of the Board, be adjusted
to reflect such event. The Administrator may make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares
and fractional cents that arise with respect to outstanding Awards as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock
split.



 


		(ii)	Non-Change in Control Transactions. Except
with respect to the transactions set forth in Section 7(d)(i), in the event of any change affecting the Common Shares, the
Company or its capitalization, by reason of a spin-off, split-up, dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or share exchange,
other than any such change that is part of a transaction resulting in a Change in Control of the Company, the Administrator, in
its discretion and without the consent of the holders of the Awards, may make (A) appropriate adjustments to the maximum number
and kind of shares reserved for issuance or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan, in the aggregate and with
respect to any individual during any one fiscal year of the Company, as provided in Section 4 of the Plan; and (B) any
adjustments in outstanding Awards, including but not limited to modifying the number, kind and price of securities subject to Awards
as the Administrator determines to be appropriate and equitable.



 




    	 



    	 



    

 


		(iii)	Change in Control Transactions. In the event of any transaction resulting in a Change in
Control of the Company, outstanding stock options and other Awards that are payable in or convertible into Common Shares under
this Plan will terminate upon the effective time of such Change in Control unless provision is made in connection with the transaction
for the continuation or assumption of such Awards by, or for the substitution of the equivalent awards, as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrator, of, the surviving or successor entity or a parent thereof. In the event of such termination, the
holders of stock options and other Awards under the Plan will be permitted, immediately before the Change in Control, to exercise
or convert all portions of such stock options or other Awards under the Plan that are then exercisable or convertible or which
become exercisable or convertible upon or prior to the effective time of the Change in Control.



 


		(iv)	Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Administrator is authorized to make, in its discretion
and without the consent of holders of Awards, adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards
in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any Affiliate,
or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Administrator determines that such adjustments
are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available
under the Plan. 



 


(e)          Substitution
of Awards in Mergers and Acquisitions. Awards may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for awards held
by employees, officers, consultants or directors of entities who become or are about to become employees, officers, consultants
or directors of the Company or an Affiliate as the result of a merger or consolidation of the employing entity with the Company
or an Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of the assets or stock of the employing entity. The terms and
conditions of any substitute Awards so granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth herein to the extent that the Administrator
deems appropriate at the time of grant to conform the substitute Awards to the provisions of the awards for which they are substituted.


 


(f)          Other
Agreements. As a condition precedent to the grant of any Award under the Plan, the exercise pursuant to such an Award, or to
the delivery of certificates for shares issued pursuant to any Award, the Administrator may require the grantee or the grantee’s
successor or permitted transferee, as the case may be, to become a party to a stock restriction agreement, shareholders’
agreement, voting trust agreement or other agreements regarding the Common Shares of the Company in such form(s) as the Administrator
may determine from time to time.


 


(g)          Termination,
Amendment and Modification of the Plan. The Board may terminate, amend or modify the Plan or any portion thereof at any time.
Except as otherwise determined by the Board, 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.


 


(h)          Non-Guarantee
of Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan or in any Grant Agreement thereunder shall confer any right on an individual
to continue in the service of the Company or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate such service
at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such termination results in (i) the failure of any Award to
vest; (ii) the forfeiture of any unvested or vested portion of any Award; and/or (iii) any other adverse effect on the
individual’s interests under the Plan.


 


(i)          Compliance
with Securities Laws; Listing and Registration. If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Common Shares
under the Plan is or may be unlawful under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or Federal, state or foreign securities laws,
the right to exercise an Award or receive Common Shares pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator determines
that such delivery is lawful. If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Common Shares under the Plan is
or may violate the rules of the national exchange on which the shares are then listed for trade, the right to exercise an Award
or receive Common Shares pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator determines that such delivery would not
violate such rules. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Common Shares under
Federal, state or foreign laws.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


The Company
may require that a grantee, as a condition to exercise of an Award, and as a condition to the delivery of any share certificate,
make such written representations (including representations to the effect that such person will not dispose of the Common Shares
so acquired in violation of Federal, state or foreign securities laws) and furnish such information as may, in the opinion of counsel
for the Company, be appropriate to permit the Company to issue the Common Shares in compliance with applicable Federal, state or
foreign securities laws. The stock certificates for any Common Shares issued pursuant to this Plan may bear a legend restricting
transferability of the Common Shares unless such shares are registered or an exemption from registration is available under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state or foreign securities laws.


 


(j)          No
Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any
kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a grantee or any other person. To the extent that any grantee or other
person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right
of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.


 


(k)          Governing
Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan, of Grant Agreements entered into pursuant to the Plan, and of any rules,
regulations, determinations or decisions made by the Administrator relating to the Plan or such Grant Agreements, and the rights
of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest therein or thereunder, shall be determined exclusively in accordance
with applicable United States federal laws and the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
Any dispute arising from the interpretation, validity or performance of this Plan or any Grant Agreement or any of their terms
and provisions shall be submitted to the courts of the State of Delaware in the United States.


 


(l)          Section
409A. The Plan and all Awards granted hereunder are intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Code section 409A.
The Plan and all Awards granted under the Plan shall be administered, interpreted, and construed in a manner consistent with Code
section 409A to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Code section 409A(a)(1)(B). Should any provision
of the Plan, any Award Agreement, or any other agreement or arrangement contemplated by the Plan be found not to comply with, or
otherwise be exempt from, the provisions of Code section 409A, such provision shall be modified and given effect (retroactively
if necessary), in the sole discretion of the Administrator, and without the consent of the holder of the Award, in such manner
as the Administrator determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with, or to effectuate an exemption from, Code section
409A. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in no event shall the Administrator exercise its discretion to accelerate
the payment or settlement of an Award where such payment or settlement constitutes deferred compensation within the meaning of
Code section 409A unless, and solely to the extent that, such accelerated payment or settlement is permissible under Treasury Regulation
section 1.409A-3(j)(4) or any successor provision.


 


(m)          Effective
Date; Termination Date. The Plan is effective as of the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board, subject to approval
of the stockholders within twelve months before or after such date. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the close of
business on the day immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the Plan, or if earlier, the tenth anniversary
of the date this Plan is approved by the stockholders. Subject to other applicable provisions of the Plan, all Awards made under
the Plan prior to such termination of the Plan shall remain in effect until such Awards have been satisfied or terminated in accordance

APPENDIX A


PROVISIONS FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS


 


With respect to Awards
granted to California residents prior to a public offering of capital stock of the Company that is effected pursuant to a registration
statement filed with, and declared effective by, the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
and only to the extent required by applicable law, the following provisions shall apply notwithstanding anything in the Plan or
a Grant Agreement to the contrary:


 


1.           With
respect to any Award granted in the form of a stock option pursuant to Section 6(a) of the Plan:


 


(a)          The
exercise period shall be no more than 120 months from the date the option is granted.


 


(b)          The
options shall be non-transferable other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if and to the extent permitted
under the Grant Agreement, to a revocable trust or as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (17 C.F.R. 230.701).


 


(c)          Unless
employment is terminated for “cause” as defined by applicable law, the terms of the Plan or Grant Agreement, or a contract
of employment, the right to exercise the option in the event of termination of employment, to the extent that the Award recipient
is entitled to exercise on the date employment terminates, will continue until the earlier of the option expiration date, or:


 


(1) At least 6 months from the
date of termination if termination was caused by death or disability.


 


(2) At least 30 days from the date
of termination if termination was caused by other than death or disability.


 


2.           With
respect to an Award, granted pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Plan, that provides the Award recipient the right to purchase
stock, the Award shall be non-transferable other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if and to the extent
permitted under the Grant Agreement, to a revocable trust or as permitted by Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(17 C.F.R. 230.701).


 


3.           The
Plan shall have a termination date of not more than 10 years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or the date the Plan
is approved by the security holders, whichever is earlier.


 


4.           Security
holders representing a majority of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote must approve the Plan by the later
of (a) 12 months after the date the Plan is adopted or (b) 12 months after the granting of any Award to a resident of California.
Any option exercised or any securities purchased before security holder approval is obtained must be rescinded if security holder
approval is not obtained within the period described in the preceding sentence. Such securities shall not be counted in determining
whether such approval is obtained.


 


5.           The
Company will provide financial statements to each Award recipient annually during the period such individual has Awards outstanding,
or as otherwise required under Section 260.140.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Company will not be required to provide such financial statements to Award recipients when the Plan complies with all conditions
of Rule 701 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (17 C.F.R. 230.701); provided that for purposes of determining
such compliance, any registered domestic partner shall be considered a “family member” as that term is defined in Rule
701.


 


6.           The
Plan is intended to comply with Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations Code. Any provision of this Plan which is inconsistent
with Section 25102(o), including without limitation any provision of this Plan that is more restrictive than would be permitted
by Section 25102(o) as amended from time to time, shall, without further act or amendment by the Board, be reformed to comply with
the provisions of Section 25102(o). If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Common Shares under the
Plan is or may be unlawful under the laws of any applicable jurisdiction, or federal or state securities laws, the right to exercise
an Award or receive shares of Common Shares pursuant to an Award shall be suspended until the Administrator determines that such
delivery is lawful. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the Common Shares under
federal or state laws.
