have no right to receive any Shares under this Agreement unless and until both of the following performance conditions shall have
been attained:


 


(a) First Performance Condition.

For the avoidance of doubt, the time-based
vesting percentages will be cumulative prior to the attainment of both performance conditions, such that, if the performance conditions
are attained and the Grantee is then still in the continuous employ or service of the Company, then, upon the attainment of both
performance conditions, the Grantee's vested percentage in the Shares covered by the award will be equal to the vested percentage
that would have been earned as of the date the performance conditions are attained if vesting had been determined as of that date
solely in accordance with the above time-based vesting schedule.


 


3.       Capital Changes.
In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, spin off or other recapitalization with respect to the outstanding shares of the
Company’s common stock, the Company will make such adjustments to the number of Shares covered by this Agreement and the
performance vesting conditions as it deems equitable under the circumstances. The Grantee shall not be credited with or entitled
to receive any cash dividends declared prior to the vesting of Shares.


 


4.       Termination
of Employment or Service. Upon the termination of the Grantee’s employment or other service with the Company, the Grantee’s
right to receive Shares covered by this Agreement, to the extent not previously vested, will thereupon terminate and be canceled.


 


5.       Issuance of
Shares; Rights as a Shareholder.


 


(a)     General.
If and as soon as practicable after the Grantee’s right to receive any Shares becomes vested in accordance with the provisions
hereof, the Company will cause such Shares to be issued and delivered
in certificated or electronic form to the Grantee, subject to the satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements.

(b)     Tax Withholding.
The Company shall require as a condition of the issuance of vested Shares under this Agreement that the Grantee remit to the Company
an amount sufficient in the opinion of the Company to satisfy any federal, state and other governmental tax withholding requirements
attributable to the vesting or issuance and delivery of the Shares. In addition, or in the alternative, the Company may satisfy
such tax withholding obligation in whole or in part (up to the minimum required amount) by withholding Shares that would otherwise
be delivered to the Grantee based upon the fair market value of the Shares on the applicable date.


 


(c)     Rights as
a Shareholder. The Grantee shall have no voting or other rights of a shareholder with respect to the Shares unless and until
such Shares are issued to the Grantee in accordance with the provisions hereof.


 


6.       Restrictions
on Transfer. The Grantee’s right to receive Shares under this Agreement may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged
or otherwise alienated or disposed of (except by will or the laws of descent and distribution), and may not become subject to attachment,
garnishment, execution or other legal or equitable process, and any attempt to do so shall be null and void.

Conferred. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to give the Grantee a right to be retained in the employ of the Company
