Subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 15.1, the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) 4,055,655 shares; plus

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) (i) any authorized shares reserved and available for
issuance, and not issued or subject to outstanding awards, under the Company's 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the "  ***Prior Plan***") on the Effective Date shall cease to be set aside and reserved for issuance pursuant to the Prior Plan, effective
on the Effective Date, and shall instead be set aside and reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan and (ii) any shares subject
to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan on the Effective Date that cease to be subject to such awards following the Effective Date
(other than by reason of exercise or settlement of the awards to the extent they are exercised for or settled in vested or nonforfeitable
shares) shall cease to be set aside or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Prior Plan, effective on the date upon which they cease
to be so subject to such awards, and shall instead be set aside and reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan, up to an aggregate maximum
