 3. Administration. 

The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have the authority in its discretion, subject to and not inconsistent
with the express provisions of the Plan, to administer the Plan and to exercise all the powers and authorities either specifically granted to it under the Plan or necessary or advisable in the administration of the Plan, including, without
limitation, the authority to grant Awards; to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which Awards shall be granted; to determine the type and number of Awards to be granted, the number of shares of Stock to which an Award may relate
and the terms, conditions, restrictions and Performance Goals relating to any Award; to determine Performance Goals; to determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances an Award may be settled, cancelled, forfeited, exchanged, or
surrendered; to make adjustments in the terms and conditions (including Performance Goals) applicable to Awards; to designate Affiliates; to construe and interpret the Plan and any Award; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations
relating to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the Award Agreements (which need not be identical for each Grantee); and to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. 

The Committee may appoint a chairperson and a secretary and may make such rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it
shall deem advisable, and shall keep minutes of its meetings. All determinations of the Committee shall be made by a majority of its members either present in person or participating by conference telephone at a meeting or by written consent. The
Committee may delegate to one or more of its members or to one or more agents such administrative duties as it may deem advisable, and the Committee or any person to whom it has delegated duties as aforesaid may employ one or more persons to render
advice with respect to 

 
any responsibility the Committee or such person may have under the Plan. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final and binding on all persons, including
the Company, and any Affiliate or Grantee (or any person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through any Grantee) and any stockholder. 

No member of the Board or Committee shall be liable for any action taken or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or
any Award granted hereunder. 
 4. Eligibility. 

Except as provided below, all Awards may be granted to selected employees and independent contractors of the Company or of any of its
Affiliates. In determining the persons to whom Awards shall be granted and the type of Award (including the number of shares to be covered by such Award), the Committee shall take into account such factors as the Committee shall deem relevant in
connection with accomplishing the purposes of the Plan. 
 ISOs shall be granted only to employees (including officers and
directors who are also employees) of the Company, its Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. No ISO shall be granted to any employee of the Company, its Parent or any of its Subsidiaries if such employee owns, immediately prior to the grant of the ISO,
stock representing more than 10% of the voting power or more than 10% of the value of all classes of stock of the Company or a Parent or a Subsidiary, unless the purchase price for the stock under such ISO shall be at least 110% of its Fair Market
Value at the time such ISO is granted and the ISO, by its terms, shall not be exercisable more than five years from the date it is granted. In determining the stock ownership under this paragraph, the provisions of Section 424(d) of the Code
shall be controlling. 
 5. Stock Subject to the Plan. 

Subject to adjustment as provided herein, 27,000,000 shares of Stock shall be reserved for the grant or settlement of Awards under the
Plan. No more than 4,000,000 shares of Stock may be covered by stock-based awards (including Options, SARs, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units) made to a single individual during any Plan Year, which number shall be subject to adjustment as
provided herein. Shares of Stock issued hereunder may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued shares or shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise. If any shares
of Stock subject to an Award are forfeited, cancelled, exchanged or surrendered or if an Award otherwise terminates or expires without a distribution of shares to the Grantee, the shares of Stock with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of
any such forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration, again be available for Awards under the Plan. 

In the event that the Committee shall determine that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Stock, or other
property), recapitalization, Stock split, reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or share exchange, or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Stock such that an adjustment is
appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Grantees under the Plan, then the Committee shall make such equitable changes or adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate to any or all of (i) the number and kind
of shares of Stock or other property (including cash) that may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards, (ii) the number and kind of shares of Stock or other property (including cash) issued or issuable in respect of outstanding Awards,
(iii) the exercise price, grant price, or purchase price relating to any Award; provided that, with respect to ISOs, such adjustment shall be made in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code, (iv) the Performance Goals and
(v) the individual limitations applicable to Awards. 

 6. Terms of Awards. 

(a) General Terms of Awards. The term of each Award shall be for such period as may be determined by the Committee. Subject to the
terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, payments to be made by the Company or Affiliate upon the grant, maturation, or exercise of an Award may be made in such forms as the Committee shall determine at the date of grant or thereafter,
including, without limitation, cash, Stock, or other property, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis. The Committee may make rules relating to installment or deferred payments with respect to
Awards, including the rate of interest to be credited with respect to such payments. In addition to the foregoing, the Committee may impose on any Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter, such additional terms and
conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine. 
 (b) Specific Terms of
Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant to Participants the following Awards, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards at the date of
grant or thereafter. 
 (i) Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the
following terms and conditions: 
 (A) Type of Award. The Award Agreement evidencing the grant of an
Option under the Plan shall designate the Option as an ISO or an NQSO. 
 (B) Exercise Price. The exercise
price per share of Stock purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Committee; provided that, such exercise price shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant. The exercise price for Stock
subject to an Option may be paid in cash or by an exchange of Stock previously owned by the Grantee (provided, that such Stock shall have been owned without any restrictions by the Grantee for at least six months prior to the date of exercise of the
Option), or a combination of both, in an amount having a combined value equal to such exercise price. An Award Agreement may provide that a Grantee may elect to pay all or a portion of the aggregate exercise price by having shares of Stock with a
Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price or sold by a broker-dealer. 

(C) Term and Exercisability of Options. Options shall be exercisable over the exercise period (which shall not
exceed ten years from the date of grant), at such times and upon such conditions as the Committee may determine, as reflected in the Award Agreement; provided that, the Committee shall have the authority to accelerate the exercisability of any
outstanding Option at such time and under such circumstances as it, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. An Option may be exercised to the extent of any or all full shares of Stock as to which the Option has become exercisable, by giving
written notice of such exercise to the Committee or its designated agent. 
 (D) Termination of Employment,
etc. An Option may not be exercised unless the Grantee is then in the employ of, or maintains a independent contractor relationship with, the Company or an Affiliate (or a company or a parent or subsidiary company of such company issuing or
assuming the Option in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies), and unless the Grantee has remained continuously so employed, or continuously maintained such relationship, since the date of grant of the Option; provided that,
the Award Agreement may contain provisions extending the exercisability of Options, in the event of specified terminations, to a date not later than the expiration date of such Option. 

 (E) Other Provisions. Options may be subject to such other conditions
including, but not limited to, restrictions on transferability of the shares acquired upon exercise of such Options, as the Committee may prescribe in its discretion or as may be required by applicable law. 

(ii) SARs. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Participants on the following terms and conditions:

 (A) In General. Unless the Committee determines other wise, an SAR (1) granted in tandem with an
NQSO may be granted at the time of grant of the related NQSO or at any time thereafter or (2) granted in tandem with an ISO may only be granted at the time of grant of the related ISO. An SAR granted in tandem with an Option shall be
exercisable only to the extent the underlying Option is exercisable. 
 (B) Settlement of SARs. An SAR
shall confer on the Grantee a right to receive an amount in cash or shares of Stock (at the sole discretion of the Committee) with respect to each share subject thereto, upon exercise thereof, equal to the excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of
one share of Stock on the date of exercise over (2) the grant price of the SAR (which in the case of an SAR granted in tandem with an Option shall be equal to the exercise price of the underlying Option, and which in the case of any other SAR
shall be such price as the Committee may determine). 
 (iii) Restricted Stock. The Committee is
authorized to grant Restricted Stock to Participants on the following terms and conditions: 
 (A) Issuance
and Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose at the date of grant or thereafter, which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination
at such times, under such circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise, as the Committee may determine. The Committee may place restrictions on Restricted Stock that shall lapse, in whole or in part, upon the attainment of Performance Goals.
Except to the extent restricted under the Award Agreement relating to the Restricted Stock, a Grantee granted Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights of a stockholder including, without limitation, the right to vote Restricted Stock and the
right to receive dividends thereon. 
 (B) Forfeiture. Upon termination of employment with or service to
the Company or Affiliate, or upon termination of the independent contractor relationship, as the case may be, during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock and any accrued but unpaid dividends or Dividend Equivalents that are at that
time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited; provided that, the Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted
Stock will be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of Restricted Stock. 

(C) Certificates for Stock. Restricted Stock granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the
Committee shall determine. If certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Grantee, such certificates shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted
Stock, and the Company shall retain physical possession of the certificate. 

 (D) Dividends. Dividends paid on Restricted Stock shall be either
paid at the dividend payment date, or deferred for payment to such date as determined by the Committee, in cash or in shares of unrestricted Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends. Stock distributed in connection with
a stock split or stock dividend, and other property distributed as a dividend, shall be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Stock or other property has been
distributed. 
 (iv) Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units
to Participants, subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (A) Award and Restrictions. Delivery of
Stock or cash, as determined by the Committee, will occur upon expiration of the deferral period specified for Restricted Stock Units by the Committee or, if permitted by the Committee, upon expiration of such deferral period as may have been
elected by the Grantee. The Committee may condition the vesting and/or payment of Restricted Stock Units, in whole or in part, upon the attainment of Performance Goals. 

(B) Forfeiture. Upon termination of employment or termination of the independent contractor relationship during the
applicable deferral period or portion thereof to which forfeiture conditions apply, or upon failure to satisfy any other conditions precedent to the delivery of Stock or cash to which such Restricted Stock Units relate, all Restricted Stock Units
that are then subject to deferral or restriction shall be forfeited; provided that, the Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that restrictions or forfeiture conditions
relating to Restricted Stock Units will be waived in whole or in part in the event of termination resulting from specified causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of Restricted Stock Units. 

(v) Dividend Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to Participants. The Committee
may provide, at the date of grant or thereafter, that Dividend Equivalents shall be paid or distributed when accrued or shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Stock, or other investment vehicles as the Committee may specify, provided
that Dividend Equivalents (other than freestanding Dividend Equivalents) shall be subject to all conditions and restrictions of the underlying Awards to which they relate. 

(vi) Other Stock- or Cash-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Awards to Participants in the form of
Other Stock-Based Awards or Cash-Based Awards, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. Awards granted pursuant to this paragraph may be granted with value and payment contingent upon the attainment of certain
Performance Goals, so long as such goals relate to periods of performance in excess of one calendar year. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards at the date of grant or thereafter. The maximum payment that any Grantee
may receive pursuant to a Cash-Based Award granted under this paragraph in respect of any single fiscal year during a performance period shall be $1,000,000. Payments earned hereunder may be decreased or increased in the sole discretion of the
Committee based on such factors as it deems appropriate. 
 7. General Provisions. 

(a) Nontransferability. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, Awards shall not be transferable by a Grantee except by
will or the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of a Grantee only by such Grantee or his guardian or legal representative. 

 (b) No Right to Continued Employment. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award granted
under the Plan or in any Award Agreement or other agreement entered into pursuant hereto shall confer upon any Grantee or Participant the right to continue in the employ of or to continue as an independent contractor of the Company or any Affiliate
or to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in the Plan or such Award Agreement or other agreement or to interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any such Affiliate to terminate such Grantee’s
employment or independent contractor relationship. 
 (c) Withholding and Other Taxes. The Company or any applicable
Affiliate is authorized to withhold from any Award granted, any payment relating to an Award under the Plan (including from a distribution of Stock) or any other payment to a Grantee, amounts of withholding and other taxes due in connection with any
transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company and Grantees to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. This
authority shall include authority to withhold or receive Stock or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a Grantee’s tax obligations. If Stock is withheld to satisfy withholding and other taxes due in
connection with an exercise of an Option, the Company shall not withhold more Stock than is necessary to satisfy the minimum withholding obligation in respect of such exercise. 

(d) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan in
whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall affect adversely any of the rights of any Grantee, without such Grantee’s consent, under any Award theretofore granted under the Plan and any amendment shall be approved by
shareholders, unless otherwise determined by the Board, if necessary to comply with state law, stock listing requirements or other applicable law. Unless earlier terminated by the Board pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the Plan shall
terminate on March 27, 2016. No Awards shall be granted under the Plan after such termination date. 
 (e) No Rights to
Awards; No Stockholder Rights. No Grantee or Participant shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Grantees. Except as provided specifically herein, a Grantee or a
transferee of an Award shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Award until the date of the issuance of a stock certificate to him for such shares. 

(f) Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred
compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Grantee pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award shall give any such Grantee any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company.

 (g) No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any
Award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, other Awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

 (h) Regulations and Other Approvals. 

(i) The obligation of the Company to sell or deliver Stock with respect to any Award granted under the Plan shall be
subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.

 (ii) Each Award is subject to the requirement that, if at any time the
Committee determines, in its absolute discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of Stock issuable pursuant to the Plan is required by any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any
governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the grant of an Award or the issuance of Stock, no such Award shall be granted or payment made or Stock issued, in whole or in part, unless listing,
registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Committee. 

(iii) In the event that the disposition of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan is not covered by a then current
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and is not otherwise exempt from such registration, such Stock shall be restricted against transfer to the extent required by the Securities Act or
regulations thereunder, and the Committee may require a Grantee receiving Stock pursuant to the Plan, as a condition precedent to receipt of such Stock, to represent to the Company in writing that the Stock acquired by such Grantee is acquired for
investment only and not with a view to distribution. 
 (i) Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and
actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
