period mandated under applicable employment laws or the terms of the Participant’s employment or service contract, if any. The Company determines which leaves shall count toward Service and when Service terminates for all purposes under the
Plan. Further, unless otherwise determined by the Company, a Participant’s Service shall not be deemed to have terminated merely because of a change in the capacity in which the Participant provides Services to the Company or an Affiliate, or a

Awards under the Plan shall be 2,000,000 Shares. All of the Shares reserved for issuance hereunder may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. 

(a) Shares Reissuable Under Plan. To the extent that an Award terminates, expires, lapses for any reason, or if a Full Value Award is
settled in cash, any Shares subject to such Award shall again be available for the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.1, no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action
would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. 
 (b) Shares Not Reissuable under Plan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Shares shall be counted against the maximum number of Shares available for issuance pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof and shall not be returned to the Plan: (i) Shares covered by an Option or Stock
Appreciation Right which are surrendered in payment of the Award exercise or purchase price or in satisfaction of obligations for Tax-Related Items incident to the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right; (ii) Shares that are not
issued or delivered as a result of the net-settlement of an outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right; or (iii) Shares that are repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of the exercise of an Option. 

(c) Shares Not Counted Against Share Pool Reserve. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Shares issued in assumption of, or in
substitution for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form of combination by the Company or an Affiliate shall not be counted against Shares available for grant pursuant to this Plan. Additionally, to the extent permitted by
Applicable Law, in the event that a company acquired by (or combined with) the Company or an Affiliate has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination,
the shares 

  
 7 

 
available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in
such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the stockholders of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may, at the discretion of the Committee, be used for Awards under the Plan in lieu of awards under
the applicable pre-existing plan of the other company and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan; provided that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made
under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employees or directors of the Company or any Affiliate in existence prior to such acquisition or combination. The
payment of Dividend Equivalent Rights in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards shall not be counted against the Shares available for issuance under the Plan. 

3.2 Shares Distributed. Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued
Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased on the open market, subject to Section 3.1(b)(iii) hereof. 
 3.3 Limitation on Number
of Shares Subject to and Amounts payable under Awards. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, and subject to Article 12, where it is intended to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code, the maximum number of Shares with
respect to one or more Awards that may be granted to any one Participant during any calendar year shall be 350,000 Shares and the maximum amount that may be paid in cash during any calendar year with respect to any Award (including, without
limitation, any Performance Bonus Award) shall be $1,500,000. To the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code or the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, in applying the foregoing limitations with respect to a
Participant, if any Option or SAR is cancelled, the cancelled Option or SAR shall continue to count against the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs may be granted to the Participant. For this purpose, the repricing of an
Option (or in the case of a SAR, the reduction of the base amount on which the stock appreciation is calculated in order to reflect a reduction in the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock) shall be treated as the cancellation of the existing Option
or SAR and the grant of a new Option or SAR. 
 ARTICLE 4. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

4.1 Eligibility. Each Eligible Individual shall be eligible to be granted one or more Awards pursuant to the Plan. An Eligible
Individual who is subject to taxation in the U.S. and who is providing Service to an Affiliate may be granted Options or SARs under this Plan only if the Affiliate qualifies as an “eligible issuer of service recipient stock” within the
meaning of the U.S. Department of Treasury regulations promulgated under Section 409A of the Code. 
 4.2 Participation. Subject
to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee, from time to time, may select from among all Eligible Individuals, those to whom Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award. No Eligible Individual shall have any
right to be granted an Award pursuant to this Plan and the grant of an Award to an Eligible Individual shall not imply any entitlement to receive future Awards. 

  
 8 

 ARTICLE 5. STOCK OPTIONS 

5.1 General. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Eligible Individuals on the following terms and conditions and such
additional terms and conditions as may be specified by the Committee: 
 (a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per Share subject to
an Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided that, subject to Section 5.2(c) hereof, the per-Share exercise price for any Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date of grant. 
 (b) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an
Option may be exercised in whole or in part; provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten (10) years. Subject to Section 11.3, the Committee also shall determine the performance or other
conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised. 
 (c) Payment. The Committee shall
determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, including the following methods: (i) cash or check; (ii) surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form of attestation of ownership of Shares as the
Committee may require (including withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the Award) which have a Fair Market Value on the date or surrender of attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which the Award
is to be exercised; (iii) promissory note from a Participant to the Company or a third-party loan guaranteed by the Company (in either case, with such loan bearing interest at no less than such rate as shall then preclude the imputation of
interest under the Code); (iv) through the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a
sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price, provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale; (v) other property
acceptable to the Committee; or (vi) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. The Award Agreement will specify the methods of paying the exercise price available to Participants. The Committee also shall determine the methods by
which Shares shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a Director or an “executive officer” of the Company within the meaning of
Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option, or continue any extension of credit with respect to the exercise price of an Option with a loan from the Company or a loan arranged by the Company in
violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act. 
 (d) Exercise of Option. 

(i) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. An
Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Committee may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with
respect to which the Option is exercised (together with applicable 

  
 9 

 
withholding taxes). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon
exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Participant. 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 Shares subject to an Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is
exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 12.1 of the Plan. 

(ii) Termination of Participant’s Service. If a Participant ceases to provide Services to the Company or any
Affiliate, including, as a result of the Participant’s termination of Service as the result of the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award
Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, if on the date of
termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the unvested portion of the Option shall be forfeited and the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. If after termination of Service
the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Committee, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. To the extent the Option is exercisable following a
Participant’s death, the Option may be exercised by such persons as may be specified in the Award Agreement, which may include any of the following: (i) the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided that such designation
is permitted under Applicable Laws and that such beneficiary has been designated before the Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Company; (ii) the Participant’s legal representative or representatives; (iii) the person
or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the Participant’s last will and testament; or (iv) if the Participant fails to make testamentary disposition of the Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to receive the Option
pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution. 
 5.2 Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted
only to Employees of the Company or any “subsidiary corporation,” as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code and any applicable U.S. Department of Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, of the Company, and the terms of any
Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan, in addition to the requirements of Section 5.1 hereof, must comply with the provisions of this Section 5.2. 

(a) Expiration. Subject to Section 5.2(c) hereof, an Incentive Stock Option shall expire and may not be exercised to any extent by
anyone after the first to occur of the following events: 
 (i) Ten (10) years from the date of grant, unless an earlier time is set
in the Award Agreement; 

  
 10 

 (ii) Three (3) months after the Participant’s termination of Service; and 

(iii) One (1) year after the date of the Participant’s termination of Service on account of death or Disability (within the meaning
of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code). 
 (b) Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the
Option is granted) of all Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any
successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

(c) Ten Percent Owners. An Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any individual who, at the date of grant, owns stock possessing
more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of Shares of the Company only if such Option is granted at a price that is not less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant and the Option is exercisable
for no more than five (5) years from the date of grant. 
 (d) Notice of Disposition. The Participant shall give the Company
prompt notice of any disposition of Shares acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within (i) two (2) years from the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option or (ii) one (1) year after the transfer of such Shares to
the Participant. 
 (e) Right to Exercise. During a Participant’s lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only by
the Participant. 
 (f) Failure to Meet Requirements. Any Option (or portion thereof) purported to be an Incentive Stock Option,
which, for any reason, fails to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code shall be considered a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

Eligible Individuals selected by the Committee in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall impose.

value of a Share (or such higher amount required by Applicable Law). The purchase price of Shares acquired pursuant to the Award of Restricted Stock shall be paid either: (i) in cash at the time of purchase; (ii) at the sole discretion of
the Committee, by Service rendered or to be rendered to the Company or an Affiliate; or (iii) in any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee in its sole discretion and in compliance with Applicable Law.

Stock). These restrictions, if any, may lapse separately or in combination at such times, pursuant to such circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise, as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. 

6.4 Dividends. Any dividends that are distributed with respect to Shares of Restricted Stock shall be paid in accordance with the
applicable Award Agreement which may, without limitation, provide that payment of dividends will be (i) made currently, (ii) withheld by the Company and paid when the Restricted Stock vests, (iii) reinvested in additional Shares of
Restricted Stock or (iv) a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided that, for Shares of Restricted Stock that are subject to vesting upon the attainment of performance conditions shall be
accumulated and subject to any restrictions and risk of forfeiture to which the underlying Restricted Stock is subject. 
 6.5
Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of Service during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to
restrictions shall be forfeited. 
 6.6 Certificates for Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be
evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, certificates shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and
restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, and the Company may, at its discretion, retain physical possession of the certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse. 

ARTICLE 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 

7.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Eligible Individuals on the following terms and
conditions and such additional terms and conditions as may be specified by the Committee: 
 (a) Exercise Price. The exercise price
per Share subject to a SAR shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided that the exercise price per Share for any SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant.

 (b) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which a SAR may be exercised in whole or
in part; provided that the term of any SAR granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years. Subject to Section 11.3, the Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or
part of a SAR may be exercised. A SAR may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. A SAR shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Committee may specify from time to time) from the
person entitled to exercise the SAR. 

  
 12 

 7.2 Payment and Limitations on Exercise. 

(a) A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the SAR pursuant to the Plan) to exercise
all or a specified portion of the SAR (to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company an amount equal to the excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date the SAR is exercised over the
aggregate exercise price of the SAR, less applicable Tax-Related Items (as further set forth in Section 16.3 hereof), subject to any limitations the Committee may impose. 

(b) Payment of the amounts determined under Section 7.2(a) hereof shall be in cash, in Shares (based on the Fair Market Value of the
Shares as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised) or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee in the Award Agreement. To the extent Shares are issued upon exercise of a SAR, the Shares shall be issued in the name of the
Participant. 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 Shares subject to a SAR, notwithstanding the exercise of the SAR. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the SAR is exercised. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right
for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 12.1 of the Plan. The provisions of Section 5.1(d)(ii) regarding the treatment of a termination of the Participant’s Service shall
also apply to Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 ARTICLE 8. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS 

8.1 Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Individuals in such amounts and
subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall impose. 
 8.2 Vesting Conditions. Subject
to Section 11.3, the Committee shall specify the date or dates on which the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions to vesting, if any, as it deems appropriate. The vesting
conditions, if any, may be based on the passage of time or the attainment of performance-based conditions. 
 8.3 Form and Timing of
Payment. The Committee shall specify the settlement date applicable to each grant of Restricted Stock Units, which date shall not be earlier than the date or dates on which the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable,
or such settlement date may be deferred to any later date, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code, as applicable. On the settlement date, the Company shall, subject to Section 11.5(a) hereof and satisfaction of applicable
Tax-Related Items (as further set forth in Section 16.3 hereof), transfer to the Participant one Share for each Restricted Stock Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously forfeited. Alternatively, settlement of a Restricted
Stock Unit may be made in cash (in an amount reflecting the Fair Market Value of the Shares that otherwise would have been issued) or any combination of cash and Shares, as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, in either case, less
applicable Tax-Related Items (as further set forth in Section 16.3 hereof). Until a Restricted Stock Unit is settled, the number of Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Article 12 hereof. 

  
 13 

 8.4 Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant
of the Award or thereafter, any Restricted Stock Units that are not vested as of the date of the Participant’s termination of Service shall be forfeited. 

8.5 General Creditors. A Participant who has been granted Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general
creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement evidencing the grant of the Restricted Stock Units. 

ARTICLE 9. OTHER SHARE-BASED AWARDS 
 9.1
Grants of Other Share-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized under the Plan to make Awards (other than Options, Restricted Stock, SARs and Restricted Stock Units) to Eligible Individuals subject to the terms and conditions set forth in
this Article 9 and such other terms and conditions as may be specified by the Committee that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that, by their terms, involve or might involve the issuance of, consist of, or are denominated in,
payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise relate to, Shares. These Awards may include, among other forms, Dividend Equivalent Rights and Share Payments. The Committee may establish one or more separate programs under the
Plan for the purpose of issuing particular forms of Awards to one or more classes of Participants on such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee from time to time. 

(a) Dividend Equivalent Rights. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted Dividend Equivalent Rights based on the
dividends declared on the Shares that are subject to any Restricted Stock Unit or an Other Share-Based Award that is a Full Value Award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the Award is granted and the
date the Award is vests or is settled, as determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Such Dividend Equivalent Rights shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to
such limitations as may be determined by the Committee; provided that, to the extent Shares subject to an Award are subject to performance-based vesting conditions, any Dividend Equivalent Rights relating to such Shares shall either
(i) not be paid or credited or (ii) be accumulated and subject to restrictions and risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying Award with respect to which such cash, stock or other property has been distributed. 

(b) Share Payments. Any Eligible Individual selected by the Committee may receive Share Payments in the manner determined from time to
time by the Committee. The number of Shares shall be determined by the Committee. 
 (c) Exercise Price. The Committee may establish
the exercise price, if any, of any Other Share-Based Award granted pursuant to this Article 9; provided that such exercise price shall not be less than the higher of (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant for an Award
that is intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code or (ii) the par value of a Share on the date of grant, unless otherwise permitted by Applicable Law. 

  
 14 

 (d) Form of Payment. Payments with respect to any Awards granted under this
Section 9.1 shall be made in cash or cash equivalent, in Shares or any combination of the foregoing, as determined by the Committee. 

9.2 Vesting Conditions. Subject to Section 11.3, the Committee shall specify the date or dates on which the Awards granted
pursuant to this Article 9 shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions to vesting as it deems appropriate. The vesting conditions may be based on the passage of time or the attainment of performance-based
conditions. 
 9.3 Term. Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of any Award granted pursuant to this Article 9 shall be set
by the Committee in its discretion. 
 ARTICLE 10. PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS FOR COVERED EMPLOYEES 

10.1 Purpose. The purpose of this Article 10 is to provide the Committee the ability to qualify Awards other than Options and
SARs and that are granted pursuant to Articles 6, 8 or 9 as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. If the Committee, in its discretion, decides to grant a Performance-Based Award to a Covered Employee, the provisions of this Article 10 shall
control over any contrary provision contained in Articles 6, 8 or 9; provided that the Committee may in its discretion grant Awards to Covered Employees that are based on Performance Criteria or Performance Goals but that do not satisfy the
requirements of this Article 10.  
 10.2 Applicability. This Article 10 shall apply only to those Covered Employees selected
by the Committee to receive Performance-Based Awards that are intended to qualify as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. The designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a Performance Period shall not entitle the Participant, in any
manner, to receive an Award for the period. Moreover, the designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as a Participant in any subsequent Performance
Period and designation of one Covered Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any other Covered Employees as a Participant in such period or in any other Performance Period. 

10.3 Procedures with Respect to Performance-Based Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the Qualified Performance-Based
Compensation requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award granted under Articles 6, 8 or 9 which may be granted to one or more Covered Employees, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of
any fiscal year in question or any other designated fiscal period or period of Service (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee, in writing (a) shall designate one or more Covered
Employees as eligible for an Award, (b) shall designate the Performance Period over which the Performance Goals shall be measured; (c) shall select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (d) shall establish the
Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which 

  
 15 

 
may be earned for such Performance Period, and (e) shall specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be
earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance Period. In
determining the amount earned by a Covered Employee, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may
deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period. 
 10.4 Performance Bonus Awards.
The Committee is authorized under the Plan to grant Performance Bonus Awards, which are Performance-Based Awards payable in the form of cash, that shall vest upon the attainment of Performance Goals that are established by the Committee and relate
to one or more of the Performance Criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. 

10.5 Payment of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant must provide
Services to the Company or an Affiliate on the day a Performance-Based Award for the appropriate Performance Period is paid to the Participant. Furthermore, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall be eligible
to receive payment pursuant to a Performance-Based Award for a Performance Period only if the Performance Goals for such period are achieved. 

10.6 Additional Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Award which is granted to a Covered Employee shall be
subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or any U.S. Department of Treasury regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for
qualification as qualified performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, and the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements. 

ARTICLE 11. PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 

11.1 Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either
alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other
Awards. 
 11.2 Award Agreement. Awards under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements that set forth the terms, conditions
and limitations for each Award, not inconsistent with the Plan, which may include, without limitation, the term of an Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant’s Service terminates, and the Company’s authority to
unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind an Award. 
 11.3 Minimum Vesting Requirements. Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Plan, no portion of Award shall vest before the first anniversary of the date of grant, subject to 

  
 16 

 
earlier vesting in whole or in part as contemplated in Section 12.2 hereof or in connection with the death, disability or involuntary termination of the Participant’s employment;
provided that the minimum vesting period set forth in this sentence shall not apply to Awards relating to Shares in the Unrestricted Pool, which shall be subject to vesting over such period as the Committee shall specify. 

11.4 Limits on Transfer. No right or interest of a Participant in any Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor
of any party other than the Company or an Affiliate, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company or an Affiliate. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, no Award
shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. To the extent and under such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee and provided such transfer is
consistent with securities offerings registered on a Form S-8, a Participant may assign or transfer an Award (other than an Incentive Stock Option) without consideration to any of the following Permitted Assignees: (i) to the Participant’s
spouse, children or grandchildren (including any adopted and step children or grandchildren), parents, grandparents or siblings, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of one or more of the Participant or the persons referred to in clause (i),
(iii) to a partnership, limited liability company or corporation in which the Participant or the persons referred to in clause (i) are the only partners, members or stockholders or (iv) for charitable donations; provided that such
Permitted Assignee shall be bound by and subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan and the Award Agreement relating to the transferred Award and shall execute an agreement satisfactory to the Company evidencing such obligations; and
provided further that such Participant shall remain bound by the terms and conditions of the Plan. 
 11.5 Stock Certificates; Book Entry
Procedures. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any
certificates evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise or vesting, as applicable, of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all
Applicable Laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded. All certificates evidencing Shares delivered pursuant to the Plan are subject to any
stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or local securities or other laws, including laws of jurisdictions outside of the United States, rules and regulations and the
rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any certificate evidencing Shares to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares. In
addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws,
regulations, or requirements. The Committee shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including, without limitation, a window-period
limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee. 

  
 17 

 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Committee
or required by any Applicable Law, rule or regulation, the Company shall not deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares shall be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as
applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator). 
 11.6 Paperless Administration. In the event that the Company
establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the documentation, granting or exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website, intranet or interactive voice response, then the paperless
documentation, granting or exercise of Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system. 
 ARTICLE 12. CHANGES IN
CAPITAL STRUCTURE 
 12.1 Adjustments. 

(a) In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other
than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the price of the Shares other than an Equity Restructuring, the Committee shall make such adjustments, if any, as the Committee in its
discretion may deem appropriate to reflect such change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, without limitation, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 hereof);
(b) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance goals or criteria with respect thereto); and (c) the grant or exercise price per Share for any outstanding Awards under the
Plan. Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. 

(b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 12.1(a) hereof or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events
affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in Applicable Laws, regulations or accounting principles, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, and on such
terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any
one or more of the following actions whenever the Committee determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to
any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles: 

(i) To provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would
have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 12.1 the Committee
determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may be 

  
 18 

 
terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion; 

(ii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be
substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; 

(iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and/or in the
terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding options, rights and awards; 

(iv) To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement; and 
 (v) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or
become payable after such event. 
 (c) In connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Sections 12.1(a) and 12.1(b) hereof: 
 (i) The number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and the
exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, shall be equitably adjusted. The adjustments provided under this Section 12.1(c)(i) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company. 

(ii) The Committee shall make such equitable adjustments, if any, as the Committee in its discretion may deem appropriate to reflect such
Equity Restructuring with respect to the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, without limitation, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 hereof). 

12.2 Change in Control. 

(a) Notwithstanding Section 12.1 hereof, and except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable Award Agreement or other written
agreement entered into between the Company and a Participant, if a Change in Control occurs and a Participant’s Awards are not converted, assumed, substituted or replaced by a successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary
thereof, then immediately prior to the Change in Control such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse and, following the consummation of such Change in Control, all such Awards shall terminate
and cease to be outstanding. In the event that the terms of any agreement (other than the Award Agreement) between the Company or any Affiliate and a Participant contains provisions that conflict with and are more restrictive than the provisions of
this Section 12.2(a), this Section 12.2(a) shall prevail and control and the more restrictive terms of such agreement (and only such terms) shall be of no force or effect. 

  
 19 

 (b) The Committee may at any time provide that one or more Awards will automatically accelerate
in connection with a Change in Control, whether or not those Awards are assumed or otherwise continue in full force and effect. In addition, where Awards are assumed or continued after a Change in Control, the Committee may provide that one or more
Awards will automatically accelerate upon an involuntary termination of the Participant’s employment or service within a designated period following the effective date of such Change in Control. Any such Award shall accordingly, immediately
prior to the effective date of such Change in Control or upon an involuntary termination of the Participant’s employment or service following a Change in Control, become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Award shall
lapse. 
 (c) Upon a Change in Control, the Committee may cause any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in
the future, including, without limitation, the date of such Change in Control, and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine. 

(d) The portion of any Incentive Stock Option accelerated in connection with a Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive
Stock Option only to the extent the applicable $100,000 limitation is not exceeded. To the extent such U.S. dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such Option shall be exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the U.S. federal
tax laws. 
 12.3 No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any
subdivision or consolidation of Shares of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of Shares of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except
as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall
be made with respect to, the number of Shares subject to an Award or the grant or the exercise price of any Award. 
 ARTICLE 13. ADMINISTRATION 

13.1 Committee. The Board, at its discretion or as otherwise necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the
Code, Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act or to the extent required by any other Applicable Law or regulation, may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee consisting of two or more members of the Board. Unless otherwise
determined by the Board, the Committee shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors, each of whom is an “outside director,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, a “non-employee director” within the
meaning of Rule 16b-3(b)(3) under the Exchange Act, or any successor rule, and an “independent director” under the applicable NASDAQ rules (or other principal securities market on which Shares are traded). Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(a) the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to all Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors and for purposes of such Awards the term “Committee”
as used in this Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board and (b) the Committee may delegate its 

  
 20 

 
authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 13.5 hereof. Unless and until the Board delegates administration of the Plan to a Committee as set forth below, the Plan shall be
administered by the full Board, and for such purposes the term “Committee” as used in this Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and
duties of the Committee under the Plan, except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code, or any regulations or rules issued thereunder, are required to be determined in the sole
discretion of the Committee. 
 13.2 Action by the Committee. Unless otherwise established by the Board or in any charter of the
Committee, a majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum and the acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall
be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any officer or other employee of the Company or any Affiliate, the
Company’s independent certified public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company to assist in the administration of the Plan. 

13.3 Authority of Committee. Subject to any specific designation in the Plan, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority and
discretion to: 
 (a) Designate Participants to receive Awards; 

(b) Determine the type or types of Awards to be granted to each Participant; 

(c) Determine the number of Awards to be granted and the number of Shares to which an Award will relate; 

(d) Determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, including, without limitation, the exercise price, grant
price, or purchase price, any restrictions or limitations on the Award, any schedule for lapse of forfeiture restrictions or restrictions on the exercisability of an Award, and accelerations or waivers thereof, any provisions related to
non-competition and recapture of gain on an Award, based in each case on such considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion determines; provided, however, that the Committee shall not have the authority to accelerate the vesting or
waive the forfeiture of any Performance-Based Awards intended to qualify as Qualified Performance Based-Compensation, except as permitted under Section 162(m) of the Code; 

(e) Determine whether, to what extent, and pursuant to what circumstances an Award may be settled in, or the exercise price of an Award may be
paid in, cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property, or an Award may be cancelled, forfeited, or surrendered; 
 (f) Prescribe the form
of each Award Agreement, which need not be identical for each Participant and may vary for Participants within and outside of the United States; 

(g) Decide all other matters that must be determined in connection with an Award; 

  
 21 

 (h) Establish, adopt, or revise any rules and regulations including adopting sub-plans to the
Plan for the purposes of complying with foreign laws and/or taking advantage of tax-favorable treatment for Awards granted to Participants outside the United States, as it may deem necessary or advisable to administer the Plan; 

(i) To suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to Article 15; 

(j) To amend or modify the terms of an Award, provided that except with respect to amendments made or other actions taken pursuant to
Section 16.14 hereof or any amendment or other action with respect to an outstanding Award that may be required or desirable to facilitate compliance with Applicable Law, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, no amendment or
modification of an outstanding Award shall affect adversely, in any material way, any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant; provided, however, that an amendment or
modification that may cause an Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-Qualified Stock Option shall not be treated as adversely affecting the rights of the Participant. 

(k) Interpret the terms of, and any matter arising pursuant to, the Plan or any Award Agreement; and 

(l) Make all other decisions and determinations that may be required pursuant to the Plan or as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to
administer the Plan. 
 13.4 Decisions Binding. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the
Plan, any Award Agreement and all decisions and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties. 

13.5 Delegation of Authority. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Board, from time to time, may delegate to a Committee of
one or more members of the Board or one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant Awards to Participants other than (a) Employees who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, (b) Covered Employees, or
(c) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder. Furthermore, if the authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated to the Committee pursuant and subject to the preceding
sentence, such authority may be further delegated by the Committee to one or more officers of the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, provided it meets the limitations of this Section 13.5, any delegation hereunder shall include the right to
modify Awards as necessary to accommodate changes in Applicable Laws or regulations, including in jurisdictions outside the United States. Furthermore, any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limitations that the Board (or,
as applicable, the Committee) specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Board (or, as applicable, the Committee) may rescind at any time the authority so delegated and/or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under
this Section 13.5 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board (or, as applicable, Committee). 

  
 22 

 ARTICLE 14. EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATE 

14.1 Plan Effective Date. The Plan was approved by the Board on April 27, 2015, subject to approval of the stockholders of the
Company, and became effective on the Effective Date. 
 14.2 Expiration Date. The Plan will continue in effect until it is terminated
by the Board pursuant to Section 15.1 hereof, except that no Incentive Stock Options may be granted under the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of April 27, 2015. Any Awards that are outstanding on the date the Plan terminates
shall remain in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 15. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND TERMINATION

 15.1 Amendment, Modification, and Termination. Subject to Section 16.14 hereof, with the approval of the Board, at any
time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided, however, that (a) to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with any Applicable Law, the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any
Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required, and (b) stockholder approval shall be required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) increases the number of shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment as
provided by Article 12), or (ii) permits the Committee to extend the exercise period for an Option or SAR beyond ten years from the date of grant. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, absent approval of the stockholders
of the Company, no Option or SAR may be amended to reduce the per-Share exercise price of the Shares subject to such Option or SAR below the per-Share exercise price as of the date the Option or SAR is granted and, except as permitted by Article 12,
(a) no Option or SAR may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation, surrender or substitution of an Option or SAR having a higher per-Share exercise price and (b) no Option or SAR may be cancelled in exchange for,
or in connection with, the payment of a cash amount or another Award at a time when the Option or SAR has a per-Share exercise price that is higher than the Fair Market Value of a Share. 

15.2 Awards Previously Granted. Except with respect to amendments made or other actions taken pursuant to Section 16.14 hereof or
any amendment or other action with respect to an outstanding Award that may be required or desirable to facilitate compliance with Applicable Law, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, no termination, amendment, or modification of
the Plan shall affect adversely, in any material way, any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant; provided, however, that an amendment or modification that may cause an
Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-Qualified Stock Option shall not be treated as adversely affecting the rights of the Participant. 
 ARTICLE 16.
GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 16.1 No Rights to Awards. No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any
Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Participants or any other persons uniformly. 

  
 23 

 16.2 No Stockholders Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Participant shall have
none of the rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares covered by any Award, including the right to vote or receive dividends, until the Participant becomes the record owner of such Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of an Option or SAR or
vesting of another Award. 
 16.3 Tax-Related Items. The Company or any Affiliate, as applicable, shall have the authority and the
right to deduct or withhold, or to require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy the obligation for Tax-Related Items with respect to any taxable or tax withholding event concerning a Participant arising as a result
of the Participant’s participation in the Plan or to take such other action as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the Company or an Affiliate, as applicable, to satisfy withholding obligations for the payment of Tax-Related Items
by one or a combination of the following: (a) withholding from the Participant’s wages or other cash compensation; (b) withholding from the proceeds of sale of Shares underlying an Award, either through a voluntary sale or a mandatory
sale arranged by the Company on the Participant’s behalf, without need of further authorization; or (c) in the Committee’s sole discretion, by withholding Shares otherwise issuable under an Award (or allowing the return of Shares)
sufficient, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, to satisfy such Tax-Related Items. No Shares shall be delivered pursuant to an Award to any Participant or other person until the Participant or such other person has made
arrangements acceptable to the Committee to satisfy the obligations for Tax-Related Items with respect to any taxable or tax withholding event concerning the Participant or such other person arising as a result of an Award. 

16.4 No Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right
of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate any Participant’s Service at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the Service of the Company or any Affiliate. 

16.5 Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any
payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. 

16.6 Indemnification. To the extent allowable pursuant to Applicable Law, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may
be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him
or her; provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be
exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them
or hold them harmless. 

  
 24 

 16.7 Relationship to other Benefits. No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into
account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, termination programs and/or indemnities or severance payments, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate, except
to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder. 
 16.8 Expenses. The expenses
of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and/or its Subsidiaries and/or Affiliates. 
 16.9 Titles and Headings. The
titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 

16.10 Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall
be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate. 
 16.11
Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to
any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the
extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. 

16.12 Government and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment of awards in Shares or otherwise shall be subject
to all Applicable Laws of the United States and jurisdictions outside the United States, and to such approvals by government agencies, including government agencies in jurisdictions outside of the United States, in each case as may be required or as
the Company deems necessary or advisable. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver evidence of title for Shares subject to Awards granted hereunder prior to: (i) obtaining any approvals from
governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable, and (ii) completion of any registration or other qualification with respect to the Shares under any Applicable Law in the United States or in a jurisdiction outside
of the United States or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable or at a time when any such registration or qualification is not current, has been suspended or otherwise has ceased to be effective. The
inability or impracticability of the Company to obtain or maintain 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, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained and shall constitute circumstances in which the Committee may determine to
amend or cancel Awards pertaining to such Shares, with or without consideration to the affected Participant. The Company shall be under no obligation to register pursuant to the Securities Act any of the Shares paid pursuant to the Plan. If the
Shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act, the Company may restrict the transfer of such Shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any
such exemption. 

  
 25 

 16.13 Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be construed in accordance
with and governed by the laws of the State of Nevada. 
 16.14 Section 409A. Except as provided in Section 16.15 hereof, to
the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the
Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without
limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the date the Plan became effective. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that following the date an Award is granted the Committee
determines that the Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the date the Plan became effective), the Committee may adopt
such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, including amendments or actions that would
result in a reduction to the benefits payable under an Award, in each case, without the consent of the Participant, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or
preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the application of any
penalty taxes under such Section or mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A of the Code if compliance is not practical. 

16.15 No Representations or Covenants with respect to Tax Qualification. Although the Company may endeavor to (1) qualify an Award
for favorable or specific tax treatment under the laws of the United States or jurisdictions outside of the United States (e.g., incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code or French-qualified stock options) or (2) avoid
adverse tax treatment (e.g., under Section 409A of the Code), the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain favorable or avoid unfavorable tax treatment, anything to the contrary in
this Plan, including Section 16.14 hereof, notwithstanding. The Company shall be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative tax impact on holders of Awards under the Plan. Nothing in this Plan or in an
Award Agreement shall provide a basis for any person to take any action against the Company or any Affiliate based on matters covered by Section 409A of the Code, including the tax treatment of any Awards, and neither the Company nor any
Affiliate will have any liability under any circumstances to the Participant or any other party if the Award that is intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Code, is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken
by the Committee with respect thereto. 
 16.16 Clawback/Recovery. All Awards granted under the Plan will be subject to recoupment in
accordance with any clawback policy that the Company is required to adopt 

  
 26 

 
pursuant to the listing standards of any national securities exchange or association on which the Company’s securities are listed or as is otherwise required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other Applicable Laws. In addition, the Committee may impose such other clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions on an Award as the Committee determines necessary or appropriate, including, without
limitation, a reacquisition right in respect of previously-acquired Shares or other cash or property upon the occurrence of cause (as determined by the Committee). 

16.17 Severability. If any provision of the Plan or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Plan and the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance shall not be affected, and the provisions so held to be unenforceable shall be reformed to the extent (and only to the
extent) necessary to make it enforceable and valid.
