 2011 STOCK
INCENTIVE PLAN 
 (as amended and restated effective May 2017) 

1.    Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of this Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel, to
provide additional incentives to Employees, Directors and Consultants and to promote the success of the Company’s business. This Plan is intended to replace the Prior Plan, which Prior Plan was automatically terminated and replaced and
superseded by this Plan on the date on which this Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders. Any awards granted under the Prior Plan remain in effect pursuant to their terms. 

2.    Definitions. The following definitions shall apply as used herein and in the individual Award Agreements
except as defined otherwise in an individual Award Agreement. In the event a term is separately defined in an individual Award Agreement, such definition shall supersede the definition contained in this Section 2. 

(a)    “Administrator” means the Board or any of the Committees appointed to administer the Plan. 

(b)    “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such
terms in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act. 

(c)    “Applicable Laws” means the legal requirements relating to the Plan and the Awards, including
under applicable provisions of federal securities laws, state corporate and securities laws, the Code, the rules of any applicable stock exchange or national market system, and the rules of any non-U.S.
jurisdiction applicable to Awards granted to residents therein. 
 (d)    “Assumed” means that pursuant
to a Corporate Transaction either (i) the Award is expressly affirmed by the Company or (ii) the contractual obligations represented by the Award are expressly assumed (and not simply by operation of law) by the successor entity or its
Parent in connection with the Corporate Transaction with appropriate adjustments to the number and type of securities of the successor entity or its Parent subject to the Award and the exercise or purchase price thereof which at least preserves the
compensation element of the Award existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction as determined in accordance with the instruments evidencing the agreement to assume the Award. 

(e)    “Award” means the grant of an Option, SAR, Dividend Equivalent Right, Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Unit or other right or benefit under the Plan. 
 (f)    “Award Agreement” means the written
agreement evidencing the grant of an Award executed by the Company and the Grantee, including any amendments thereto. 

(g)    “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 

(h)    “Cause” means willful misconduct by the Grantee or willful failure by the Grantee to perform his
or her responsibilities to the Company (including, without limitation, 

  
 1 

 
breach by the Grantee of any provision of any employment, consulting, advisory, nondisclosure, non-competition or other similar agreement between the
Grantee and the Company), as determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. The Grantee shall be considered to have been discharged for Cause if the Company determines, within 30 days after the Grantee’s resignation, that
discharge for Cause was warranted. 
 (i)    “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 (j)    “Committee” means any
committee composed of members of the Board appointed by the Board to administer the Plan. 
 (k)    “Common
Stock” means the common stock of the Company. 
 (l)    “Company” means CEVA, Inc., a
Delaware corporation, or any successor entity that adopts the Plan in connection with a Corporate Transaction. 

(m)    “Consultant” means any person (other than an Employee or a Director, solely with respect to
rendering services in such person’s capacity as a Director) who is engaged by the Company or any Related Entity to render consulting or advisory services to the Company or such Related Entity. 

(n)    “Continuing Directors” means members of the Board who either (i) have been Board members
continuously for a period of at least twelve (12) months or (ii) have been Board members for less than twelve (12) months and were elected or nominated for election as Board members by at least a majority of the Board members
described in clause (i) who were still in office at the time such election or nomination was approved by the Board. 

(o)    “Continuous Service” means that the provision of services to the Company or a Related Entity in
any capacity of Employee, Director or Consultant is not interrupted or terminated. In jurisdictions requiring notice in advance of an effective termination as an Employee, Director or Consultant, Continuous Service shall be deemed terminated upon
the actual cessation of providing services to the Company or a Related Entity notwithstanding any required notice period that must be fulfilled before a termination as an Employee, Director or Consultant can be effective under Applicable Laws. A
Grantee’s Continuous Service shall be deemed to have terminated either upon an actual termination of Continuous Service or upon the entity for which the Grantee provides services ceasing to be a Related Entity. Continuous Service shall not be
considered interrupted in the case of (i) any approved leave of absence, (ii) transfers among the Company, any Related Entity, or any successor, in any capacity of Employee, Director or Consultant, or (iii) any change in status as
long as the individual remains in the service of the Company or a Related Entity in any capacity of Employee, Director or Consultant (except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise determined
by the Administrator, in the event of any spin-off of a Related Entity, service as an Employee, Director or Consultant for such Related Entity following such spin-off
shall be deemed to be Continuous Service for purposes of the Plan and any Award under the Plan. An approved leave of absence shall include sick leave, military leave, or any other authorized personal leave. For purposes of each Incentive Stock
Option granted under the 

  
 2 

 
Plan, if such leave exceeds three (3) months, and reemployment upon expiration of such leave is not guaranteed by statute or contract, then the Incentive Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option on the day three (3) months and one (1) day following the expiration of such three (3) month period.

purpose of which is to change the state in which the Company is incorporated; 
 (ii)    the sale, transfer or other
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; 
 (iii)    the complete liquidation or
dissolution of the Company; 
 (iv)    any reverse merger or series of related transactions culminating in a reverse
merger (including, but not limited to, a tender offer followed by a reverse merger) in which the Company is the surviving entity but (A) the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such merger are converted or exchanged by
virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, or (B) in which securities possessing more than forty percent (40%) of the total combined voting power of the Company’s outstanding securities
are transferred to a person or persons different from those who held such securities immediately prior to such merger or the initial transaction culminating in such merger; or

Entity to which the Grantee provides services regardless of whether the Grantee is covered by such policy. If the Company or the Related Entity to which the Grantee provides service does not have a long-term disability plan in place,
“Disability” means that a Grantee is unable to carry out the responsibilities and functions of the position held by the Grantee by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment for a period of not less than ninety
(90) consecutive days. A Grantee will not be considered to have incurred a Disability unless he or she furnishes proof of such impairment sufficient to satisfy the Administrator in its discretion.

entitling the Grantee to compensation measured by dividends paid with respect to Common Stock. 

(u)    “Employee” means any person, including an Officer or Director, who is in the employ of the Company
or any Related Entity, subject to the control and direction of the Company or any Related Entity as to both the work to be performed and the manner and method of performance. The payment of a director’s fee by the Company or a Related Entity
shall not be sufficient to constitute “employment” by the Company. 
 (v)    “Exchange Act”
means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. 

(w)    “Fair Market Value” means, as of any date, the value of Common Stock determined as follows: 

(i)    If the Common Stock is listed on one or more established stock exchanges or national market systems, including
without limitation The NASDAQ Global Select Market, The NASDAQ Global Market or The NASDAQ Capital Market of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, its Fair Market Value shall be the closing sales price for such stock (or the closing bid, if no sales were
reported) as quoted on the principal exchange or system on which the Common Stock is listed (as determined by the Administrator) on the date of determination (or, if no closing sales price or closing bid was reported on that date, as applicable, on
the last trading date such closing sales price or closing bid was reported), as reported in The Wall Street Journal or such other source as the Administrator deems reliable; 

(ii)    If the Common Stock is regularly quoted on an automated quotation system (including the OTC Bulletin Board) or by
a recognized securities dealer, its Fair Market Value shall be the closing sales price for such stock as quoted on such system or by such securities dealer on the date of determination, but if selling prices are not reported, the Fair Market Value
of a share of Common Stock shall be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for the Common Stock on the date of determination (or, if no such prices were reported on that date, on the last date such prices were reported), as reported in
The Wall Street Journal or such other source as the Administrator deems reliable; or 
 (iii)    In the absence of an
established market for the Common Stock of the type described in (i) and (ii), above, the Fair Market Value thereof shall be determined by the Administrator in good faith and in a manner consistent with Applicable Laws.

determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Subject to the Plan.

Shares which may be issued pursuant to all Awards is 2,350,000 Shares, plus any Shares that would otherwise return to the Prior Plan as a result of forfeiture, termination or expiration of awards previously granted under the Prior Plan (ignoring the
termination or expiration of the Prior Plan for the purpose of determining the number of Shares available for the Plan); provided, however, that the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options is
1,467,256 Shares. The Shares to be issued pursuant to Awards may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock. 

(b)    Any Shares covered by an Award (or portion of an Award) which is forfeited, canceled or expires (whether
voluntarily or involuntarily) shall be deemed not to have been issued for purposes of determining the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan. Shares that actually have been issued under the Plan pursuant to an Award
shall not be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future issuance under the Plan, except that if unvested Shares are forfeited, or repurchased by the Company at the lower of their original purchase price or their Fair Market Value
at the time of repurchase, such Shares shall become available for future grant under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) Shares tendered or withheld in payment of an Option exercise price shall not be
returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future issuance under the Plan; (ii) Shares withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation shall not be returned to the Plan and shall not become available for future
issuance under the Plan; and (iii) all Shares covered by the portion of an SAR that is exercised (whether or not Shares are actually issued to the Grantee upon exercise of the SAR) shall be considered issued pursuant to the Plan. 

4.    Administration of the Plan. 

(a)    Plan Administrator. 

(i)    Administration with Respect to Directors and Officers. With respect to grants of Awards to Directors or
Employees who are also Officers or Directors of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable
Laws and to permit such grants and related transactions under the Plan to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act in accordance with Rule 16b-3. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue
to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board. 
 (ii)    Administration With Respect to
Consultants and Other Employees. With respect to grants of Awards to Employees or Consultants who are neither Directors nor Officers of the Company, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) a Committee designated by the
Board, which Committee shall be constituted in such a manner as to satisfy the Applicable Laws. Once appointed, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board. The Board may authorize one or
more Officers to grant such Awards and may limit such authority as the Board determines from time to time. 

  
 6 

 (iii)    Administration With Respect to Covered Employees.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, grants of Awards to any Covered Employee intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation shall be made only by a Committee (or subcommittee of a Committee) which is comprised solely of two or more Directors
eligible to serve on a committee making Awards qualifying as Performance-Based Compensation. In the case of such Awards granted to Covered Employees, references to the “Administrator” or to a “Committee” shall be deemed to be
references to such Committee or subcommittee. 
 (iv)    Administration Errors. In the event an Award is granted
in a manner inconsistent with the provisions of this subsection (a), such Award shall be presumptively valid as of its grant date to the extent permitted by the Applicable Laws. 

(b)    Powers of the Administrator. Subject to Applicable Laws and the provisions of the Plan (including any other
powers given to the Administrator hereunder), and except as otherwise provided by the Board, the Administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion: 

(i)    to select the Employees, Directors and Consultants to whom Awards may be granted from time to time hereunder; 

(ii)    to determine whether and to what extent Awards are granted hereunder; 

(iii)    to determine the number of Shares or the amount of other consideration to be covered by each Award granted
hereunder; 
 (iv)    to approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan; 

(v)    to determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder; 

(vi)    to amend the terms of any outstanding Award granted under the Plan, provided that (A) any amendment that
would adversely affect the Grantee’s rights under an outstanding Award shall not be made without the Grantee’s written consent, 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 Grantee, (B) the reduction of the exercise price of any Option awarded under the Plan and the base appreciation amount of
any SAR awarded under the Plan shall be subject to stockholder approval and (C) canceling an Option or SAR at a time when its exercise price or base appreciation amount (as applicable) exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares, in
exchange for another Option, SAR, Restricted Stock, or other Award or for cash shall be subject to stockholder approval, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a Corporate Transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, canceling
an Option or SAR in exchange for another Option, SAR, Restricted Stock, or other Award with an exercise price, purchase price or base appreciation amount (as applicable) that is equal to or greater than the exercise price or base appreciation amount
(as applicable) of the original Option or SAR shall not be subject to stockholder approval; 

  
 7 

 (vii)    to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards,
including without limitation, any notice of award or Award Agreement, granted pursuant to the Plan; 

(viii)    to grant Awards to Employees, Directors and Consultants employed outside the United States on such terms and
conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Administrator, be necessary or desirable to further the purpose of the Plan, and to set forth such terms and conditions in Award Agreements, and to adopt related sub-plans under the Plan; and 
 (ix)    to take such other action, not inconsistent
with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator deems appropriate. 
 The express grant in the Plan of any specific power to the Administrator shall not be
construed as limiting any power or authority of the Administrator; provided that the Administrator may not exercise any right or power reserved to the Board. Any decision made, or action taken, by the Administrator or in connection with the
administration of this Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in the Plan. 

(c)    Indemnification. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the
Board or as Officers or Employees of the Company or a Related Entity, members of the Board and any Officers or Employees of the Company or a Related Entity to whom authority to act for the Board, the Administrator or the Company is delegated shall
be defended and indemnified by the Company to the extent permitted by law on an after-tax basis against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection
with the defense of any claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or
any Award granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding,
except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct; provided, however, that within thirty
(30) days after the institution of such claim, investigation, action, suit or proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at the Company’s expense to defend the same. 

5.    Eligibility. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to Employees, Directors and
Consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees of the Company or a Parent or a Subsidiary of the Company. An Employee, Director or Consultant who has been granted an Award may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional
Awards. Awards may be granted to such Employees, Directors or Consultants who are residing in non-U.S. jurisdictions as the Administrator may determine from time to time. 

  
 8 

 6.    Terms and Conditions of Awards. 

(a)    Types of Awards. The Administrator is authorized under the Plan to award any type of arrangement to an
Employee, Director or Consultant that is not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan and that by its terms involves or might involve the issuance of (i) Shares, (ii) cash or (iii) an Option, a SAR, or similar right with a fixed
or variable price related to the Fair Market Value of the Shares and with an exercise or conversion privilege related to the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions. Such
awards include, without limitation, Options, SARs, sales or bonuses of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Dividend Equivalent Rights, and an Award may consist of one such security or benefit, or two (2) or more of them in any
combination or alternative. 
 (b)    Designation of Award. Each Award shall be designated in the Award
Agreement. In the case of an Option, the Option shall be designated as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, an Option will qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option under the Code only to the extent the $100,000 dollar limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is not exceeded. The $100,000 limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is calculated based on the aggregate Fair Market
Value of the Shares subject to Options designated as Incentive Stock Options which become exercisable for the first time by a Grantee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company). For purposes
of this calculation, Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the grant date of the relevant Option. In the event that the Code or
the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the date the Plan becomes effective to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to Incentive Stock Options, then such different limit will be
automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 

(c)    Conditions of Award. Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the provisions,
terms, and conditions of each Award including, but not limited to, the Award vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of payment (cash, Shares, or other consideration) upon settlement of the
Award, payment contingencies, and satisfaction of any performance criteria. The performance criteria established by the Administrator may be based on any one of, or combination of, the following: (i) increase in share price, (ii) earnings
per share, (iii) total stockholder return, (iv) operating margin, (v) gross margin, (vi) return on equity, (vii) return on assets, (viii) return on investment, (ix) operating income, (x) net operating income, (xi) pre-tax profit, (xii) cash flow, (xiii) revenue, (xiv) expenses, (xv) earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation, (xvi) economic value added and (xvii) market share. The
performance criteria may be applicable to the Company, Related Entities and/or any individual business units of the Company or any Related Entity. Partial achievement of the specified criteria may result in a payment or vesting corresponding to the
degree of achievement as specified in the Award Agreement. In addition, the performance criteria shall be calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, but excluding the effect (whether positive or negative) of any change
in accounting standards and any extraordinary, unusual or nonrecurring item, as determined by the Administrator, occurring after the establishment of the performance criteria applicable to the Award intended to be

  
 9 

 
Performance-Based Compensation. Each such adjustment, if any, shall be made solely for the purpose of providing a consistent basis from period to period for the calculation of performance
criteria in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the Grantee’s rights with respect to an Award intended to be Performance-Based Compensation. 

(d)    Acquisitions and Other Transactions. The Administrator may issue Awards under the Plan in settlement,
assumption or substitution for, outstanding awards or obligations to grant future awards in connection with the Company or a Related Entity acquiring another entity, an interest in another entity or an additional interest in a Related Entity whether
by merger, stock purchase, asset purchase or other form of transaction. 
 (e)    Deferral of Award Payment. The
Administrator may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Grantees the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event that absent the
election would entitle the Grantee to payment or receipt of Shares or other consideration under an Award. The Administrator may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and accrual of interest
or other earnings, if any, on amounts, Shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules and procedures that the Administrator deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program. 

(f)    Separate Programs. The Administrator 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 Grantees on such terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator from time to time.  

(g)    Individual Limitations on Awards. 

(i)    Individual Limit for Options and SARs. The maximum number of Shares with respect to which Options and SARs
may be granted to any Grantee in any calendar year shall be 500,000 Shares. In connection with a Grantee’s commencement of Continuous Service, a Grantee may be granted Options and SARs for up to an additional 250,000 Shares which shall not
count against the limit set forth in the previous sentence. The foregoing limitations shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization pursuant to Section 10, below.    To
the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code or the regulations thereunder, in applying the foregoing limitations with respect to a Grantee, if any Option or SAR is canceled, the canceled 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 Grantee. For this purpose, the repricing of an Option (or in the case of a SAR, the base amount on which the stock appreciation is calculated is reduced 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. 

(ii)    Individual Limit for Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. For awards of Restricted Stock and
Restricted Stock Units that are intended to be Performance-Based Compensation, the maximum number of Shares with respect to which such Awards may be granted to any Grantee in any calendar year shall be 500,000. The foregoing limitation shall be
adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization pursuant to Section 10, below. 

  
 10 

 (h)    Deferral. If the vesting or receipt of Shares under an
Award is deferred to a later date, any amount (whether denominated in Shares or cash) paid in addition to the original number of Shares subject to such Award will not be treated as an increase in the number of Shares subject to the Award if the
additional amount is based either on a reasonable rate of interest or on one or more predetermined actual investments such that the amount payable by the Company at the later date will be based on the actual rate of return of a specific investment
(including any decrease as well as any increase in the value of an investment). 
 (i)    Early Exercise. The
Award Agreement may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Grantee may elect at any time while an Employee, Director or Consultant to exercise any part or all of the Award prior to full vesting of the Award. Any unvested Shares received
pursuant to such exercise may be subject to a repurchase right in favor of the Company or a Related Entity or to any other restriction the Administrator determines to be appropriate. 

(j)    Term of Award. The term of each Award shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant
thereof. However, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Grantee who, at the time the Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent
or Subsidiary of the Company, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the specified term of any
Award shall not include any period for which the Grantee has elected to defer the receipt of the Shares or cash issuable pursuant to the Award. 

(k)    Transferability of Awards. Incentive Stock Options may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated,
transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only by the Grantee. Other Awards shall be transferable (i) by will and by the laws
of descent and distribution and (ii) during the lifetime of the Grantee, to the extent and in the manner authorized by the Administrator but only to the extent such transfers are made to family members, to family trusts, to family controlled
entities, to charitable organizations, and pursuant to domestic relations orders or agreements, in all cases without payment for such transfers to the Grantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee may designate one or more beneficiaries of the
Grantee’s Award in the event of the Grantee’s death on a beneficiary designation form provided by the Administrator. 

(l)    Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall for all purposes be the date on which the
Administrator makes the determination to grant such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. 

  
 11 

 7.    Award Exercise or Purchase Price, Consideration and Taxes.

 (a)    Exercise or Purchase Price. The exercise or purchase price, if any, for an Award shall be as follows:

 (i)    In the case of an Incentive Stock Option: 

(A)    granted to an Employee who, at the time of the grant of such Incentive Stock Option owns stock representing more
than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company, the per Share exercise price shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on
the date of grant; or 
 (B)    granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in the preceding paragraph,
the per Share exercise price shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

(ii)    In the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option, the per Share exercise price
shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

(iii)    In the case of Awards intended to qualify as Performance-Based Compensation, the exercise or purchase price, if
any, shall be not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

(iv)    In the case of SARs, the base appreciation amount shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair
Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 
 (v)    In the case of other Awards, such price as is determined by the
Administrator. 
 (vi)    Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), in the case of an Award
issued pursuant to Section 6(d), above, the exercise or purchase price for the Award shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the relevant instrument evidencing the agreement to issue such Award. 

(b)    Consideration. Subject to Applicable Laws, the consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon
exercise or purchase of an Award including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. In addition to any other types of consideration the Administrator may determine, the Administrator is authorized to accept as consideration
for Shares issued under the Plan the following, provided that the portion of the consideration equal to the par value of the Shares must be paid in cash or other legal consideration permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law: 

(i)    cash; 

(ii)    check; 

  
 12 

 (iii)    surrender of Shares or delivery of a properly executed form of
attestation of ownership of Shares as the Administrator may require which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender or attestation equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which said Award shall be exercised; 

(iv)    with respect to Options, payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the
Grantee (A) shall provide written instructions to a Company designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased Shares and remit to the Company sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable
for the purchased Shares and (B) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; 

(v)    with respect to Options, payment through a “net exercise” such that, without the payment of any funds,
the Grantee may exercise the Option and receive the net number of Shares equal to (i) the number of Shares as to which the Option is being exercised, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Fair Market Value per Share
(on such date as is determined by the Administrator) less the exercise price per Share, and the denominator of which is such Fair Market Value per Share (the number of net Shares to be received shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number of
Shares); or 
 (vi)    any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. 

The Administrator may at any time or from time to time, by adoption of or by amendment to the standard forms of Award Agreement described in
Section 4(b)(iv), or by other means, grant Awards which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment for the Shares or which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration. 

(c)    Taxes. No Shares shall be delivered under the Plan to any Grantee or other person until such Grantee or
other person has made arrangements acceptable to the Administrator for the satisfaction of any non-U.S., federal, state, or local income and employment tax withholding obligations, including, without
limitation, obligations incident to the receipt of Shares. Upon exercise or vesting of an Award the Company shall withhold or collect from the Grantee an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations, including, but not limited to, by surrender
of the whole number of Shares covered by the Award sufficient to satisfy the minimum applicable tax withholding obligations incident to the exercise or vesting of an Award (reduced to the lowest whole number of Shares if such number of Shares
withheld would result in withholding a fractional Share with any remaining tax withholding settled in cash). 

8.    Exercise of Award. 

(a)    Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder. 

(i)    Any Award granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the
Administrator under the terms of the Plan and specified in the Award Agreement. 

  
 13 

 (ii)    An Award shall be deemed to be exercised when written notice of
such exercise has been given to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Award by the person entitled to exercise the Award and full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Award is exercised has been made, including, to the extent
selected, use of the broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure to pay the purchase price as provided in Section 7(b)(iv). 

(b)    Exercise of Award Following Termination of Continuous Service. 

(i)    An Award may not be exercised after the termination date of such Award set forth in the Award Agreement and may be
exercised following the termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service only to the extent provided in the Award Agreement. 

(ii)    Where the Award Agreement permits a Grantee to exercise an Award following the termination of the Grantee’s
Continuous Service for a specified period, the Award shall terminate to the extent not exercised on the last day of the specified period or the last day of the original term of the Award, whichever occurs first. 

(iii)    Any Award designated as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent not exercised within the time permitted by law
for the exercise of Incentive Stock Options following the termination of a Grantee’s Continuous Service shall convert automatically to a Non-Qualified Stock Option and thereafter shall be exercisable as
such to the extent exercisable by its terms for the period specified in the Award Agreement. 
 9.    Conditions Upon
Issuance of Shares. 
 (a)    If at any time the Administrator determines that the delivery of Shares pursuant to
the exercise, vesting or any other provision of an Award is or may be unlawful under Applicable Laws, the vesting or right to exercise an Award or to otherwise receive Shares pursuant to the terms of an Award shall be suspended until the
Administrator determines that such delivery is lawful and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. The Company shall have no obligation to effect any registration or qualification of the
Shares under federal or state laws. 
 (b)    As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the
person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the
Company, such a representation is required by any Applicable Laws. 
 10.    Adjustments Upon Changes in
Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and Section 11 hereof, the number of Shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the number of Shares which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan
but as to which no Awards have yet been granted or which have been returned to the Plan, the exercise or purchase price of each such outstanding Award, the maximum number of Shares with respect to which Awards may be granted to any Grantee in any
calendar year, as well as any other terms that the Administrator determines require adjustment shall be proportionately adjusted for (i) any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split,
stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Shares, or similar 

  
 14 

 
transaction affecting the Shares, (ii) any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, or (iii) any other
transaction with respect to Common Stock including a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation (including a spin-off or other distribution of stock or property),
reorganization, liquidation (whether partial or complete) or any similar transaction; provided, however that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of
consideration.” In the event of any distribution of cash or other assets to stockholders other than a normal cash dividend, the Administrator shall also make such adjustments as provided in this Section 10 or substitute, exchange or grant
Awards to effect such adjustments (collectively “adjustments”). Any such adjustments to outstanding Awards will be effected in a manner that precludes the enlargement of rights and benefits under such Awards. In connection with the
foregoing adjustments, the Administrator may, in its discretion, prohibit the exercise of Awards or other issuance of Shares, cash or other consideration pursuant to Awards during certain periods of time. Except as the Administrator determines, 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 hereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award. 

11.    Corporate Transactions. 

(a)    Termination of Award to Extent Not Assumed in Corporate Transaction. Effective upon the consummation of a
Corporate Transaction, all outstanding Awards under the Plan shall terminate. However, all such Awards shall not terminate to the extent they are Assumed in connection with the Corporate Transaction. 

(b)    Acceleration of Award Upon Corporate Transaction. Except as provided otherwise in an individual Award
Agreement, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, for the portion of each Award that is neither Assumed nor Replaced, such portion of the Award shall automatically become fully vested and exercisable and be released from any repurchase or
forfeiture rights (other than repurchase rights exercisable at Fair Market Value) for all of the Shares (or other consideration) at the time represented by such portion of the Award, immediately prior to the specified effective date of such
Corporate Transaction, provided that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has not terminated prior to such date. 

(c)    Effect of Acceleration on Incentive Stock Options. Any Incentive Stock Option the vesting of which is
accelerated under this Section 10 in connection with a Corporate Transaction shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Stock Option under the Code only to the extent the $100,000 dollar limitation of Section 422(d) of the Code is not
exceeded. 
 12.    Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon the earlier to occur of
its adoption by the Board or its approval by the stockholders of the Company. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated. Subject to Section 17, below, and Applicable Laws, Awards may be granted under
the Plan upon its becoming effective. 

  
 15 

 13.    Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan. 

(a)    The Board may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be
made without the approval of the Company’s stockholders to the extent such approval is required by Applicable Laws. 

(b)    No Award may be granted during any suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan. 

(c)    No suspension or termination of the Plan (including termination of the Plan under Section 10, above) shall
adversely affect any rights under Awards already granted to a Grantee. 
 14.    Reservation of Shares. 

(a)    The Company, during the term of the Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as
shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 
 (b)    The inability of the Company to obtain 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. 
 15.    No Effect on
Terms of Employment/Consulting Relationship. The Plan shall not confer upon any Grantee any right with respect to the Grantee’s Continuous Service, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the right of the Company or any
Related Entity to terminate the Grantee’s Continuous Service at any time, with or without cause, including, but not limited to, Cause, and with or without notice. The ability of the Company or any Related Entity to terminate the employment of a
Grantee who is employed at will is in no way affected by its determination that the Grantee’s Continuous Service has been terminated for Cause for the purposes of this Plan. 

16.    No Effect on Retirement and Other Benefit Plans. Except as specifically provided in a retirement or other
benefit plan of the Company or a Related Entity, Awards shall not be deemed compensation for purposes of computing benefits or contributions under any retirement plan of the Company or a Related Entity, and shall not affect any benefits under any
other benefit plan of any kind or any benefit plan subsequently instituted under which the availability or amount of benefits is related to level of compensation. The Plan is not a “Pension Plan” or “Welfare Plan” under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. 
 17.    Stockholder Approval. The grant of
Incentive Stock Options under the Plan shall be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted excluding Incentive Stock Options issued in substitution for
outstanding Incentive Stock Options pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code. Such stockholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws. The Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options under the Plan
prior to approval by the 

  
 16 

 
stockholders, but until such approval is obtained, no such Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable. In the event that stockholder approval is not obtained within the twelve (12) month
period provided above, all Incentive Stock Options previously granted under the Plan shall be exercisable as Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

18.    Unfunded Obligation. Grantees shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company. Any
amounts payable to Grantees pursuant to the Plan shall be unfunded and unsecured obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. Neither the Company nor
any Related Entity shall be required to segregate any monies from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall retain at all times beneficial ownership of any
investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Grantee account shall not create or constitute a trust or fiduciary
relationship between the Administrator, the Company or any Related Entity and a Grantee, or otherwise create any vested or beneficial interest in any Grantee or the Grantee’s creditors in any assets of the Company or a Related Entity. The
Grantees shall have no claim against the Company or any Related Entity for any changes in the value of any assets that may be invested or reinvested by the Company with respect to the Plan. 

19.    Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning
or interpretation of any provision of the Plan. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless
the context clearly requires otherwise. 
 20.    Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by
the Board, the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval, nor any provision of the Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may
deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of Awards otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

SEPARATION AGREEMENT

NOW THEREFORE, based upon the mutual promises and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration specified herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

		
	1.
	Termination.

The Company and the Executive mutually agree that the Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective as of the Termination Date and Executive hereby resigns, as of the Termination Date, from any and all positions, offices and titles that the Executive held at the Company immediately prior to the Termination Date. The parties agree that the termination shall be pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Employment Agreement.

		
	2.
	The Executive’s Entitlements.

In connection with the foregoing, the Executive shall be paid the amounts, and shall receive the benefits, set forth in this Section 2, subject to the terms and conditions specified herein.

(a) Accrued Benefits. The Company will pay to the Executive the amounts and provide the benefits set forth below:

(1)The Executive’s earned but unpaid Base Salary (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and earned and unused vacation for the portion of the 2018 calendar year to have elapsed prior to the Termination Date (if any), payable not later than the first complete payroll payment date following the Termination Date;

(2)The Executive’s unreimbursed business expenses incurred prior to the Termination Date, payable subject to and in accordance with the policies and procedures applicable under Section 3.7 of the Employment Agreement; and

(3)The Executive’s accrued and vested benefits under all tax-qualified employee benefit plans in which the Executive is a participant, payable in accordance with the terms of such plans.

(b) Contingent Payments and Benefits. Subject to the Release Effective Date (as defined in Section 2.2(d) below) occurring, the Company will pay to the Executive the amounts and provide the benefits specified in this Section 2(b) in consideration for, and contingent on, the Executive entering into this Agreement, specifically including the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of the Release (as described in Section 2.2(d) below and attached as Exhibit A hereto) and Executive’s strict compliance with all restrictive covenants (the “Restrictive Covenants”) identified herein or in the Employment Agreement:

(1)Severance. The Company shall pay, within 75 days following the Termination Date, $1,500,000; provided, that the Executive hereby acknowledges that the Executive is not entitled to (and hereby waives any rights under or with respect to) any other severance payments or benefits under any other severance, employment, or similar plans, programs or arrangements of the Company.

(2)Continued Benefits. The Company shall continue Executive’s automobile perquisite benefits under Section 3.5.1 of the Employment Agreement for a period of 30 days following the Termination Date and reimburse Executive for Executive’s life insurance premium benefit under Section 3.5.2 of the Employment Agreement on a pro-rated basis from the date of the annual renewal immediately preceding the Termination Date to that date that is 30 days following the Termination Date, each subject to tax withholding requirements.

(3)Bonuses. The Company shall pay Executive’s (A) annual bonus based on actual performance in respect of the 2017 calendar year under the Company’s 2017 Management Incentive Plan and (B) a pro-rated annual bonus based on actual performance in respect of the 2018 calendar year under the Company’s 2018 Management Incentive Plan, based on the ratio of the number of days employed during the 2018 calendar year to 365, and, in each of clauses (A) and (B), payable when annual bonuses for such calendar year are paid to other senior executives.

(4) Other Payments. The Company shall pay to Executive, on same date the severance payment is made, $39,364.56 in the aggregate, which amount approximates the cost of monthly continuation premiums for medical, dental and vision insurance under federal or state COBRA for a period of 24 months following the Termination Date (based on the cost of such COBRA payments at the Company from time to time during such period) and executive level services during such period. The foregoing payment shall not be contingent on Executive actually electing COBRA coverage.

(c) Equity. In accordance with the terms of the Company’s 2013 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended, all unvested equity awards of the Company held by Executive shall be canceled and forfeited on the Termination Date.

(d) Release. The Company’s obligations under Section 2(b) are conditioned on the Executive signing, and delivering to the Company, on the Effective Date, a release of claims in the form attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Release”) and not thereafter timely revoking it in

2

accordance with its terms (the date such Release becomes irrevocable in accordance with its terms being the “Release Effective Date”).

		
	3.
	Restrictive Covenants.

Each party acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants (including those set forth in Section 5 of the Employment Agreement) shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof.  Any breach of such covenants shall constitute a breach of this Agreement.  The Executive will not, for a period of one year following the Termination Date, make disparaging or defamatory comments, in any form or respect, with regard to the Company or its affiliates or subsidiaries or its or their respective officers, directors, agents, key employees, products, services, operations or prospects. The Company will instruct its directors and executive officers to not, for a period of one year following the Termination Date, make disparaging or defamatory comments, in any form or respect, with regard to the Executive. The parties’ respective communications related to Executive’s termination of employment shall be consistent with the draft press release and internal communications previously shared between the parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the foregoing three sentences shall prevent any such person from making truthful factual statements to the extent necessary with respect to any litigation, arbitration, legal process, or mediation or as required by law or by any court, arbitrator, mediator, or administrative or legislative body (or as reasonably appropriate in response to any breach by the other party of the foregoing two sentences). Executive also agrees, for a period of one year following the Termination Date, to not, directly or indirectly, for his own account or for the account of any other individual or entity, interfere with the operations, governance and business affairs of the Company (it being understood that the foregoing sentence shall not limit Executive’s ability to engage in competitive business activities not otherwise prohibited by the Restrictive Covenants).

		
	4.
	Miscellaneous.

(a) Indemnification. Nothing in this Agreement or elsewhere shall reduce or otherwise adversely affect any rights that the Executive may have to contribution, indemnification, or advancement of expenses (including, without limitation, advancement of attorney’s fees) whether under the Employment Agreement or otherwise.

(b) Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or question arising under, out of, or relating to this Agreement (or the breach thereof), or, Executive’s employment with the Company or termination thereof, other than those disputes relating to Executive’s alleged violations of any Restrictive Covenants shall be referred for dispute resolution and arbitration pursuant to
Section 11.13 of the Employment Agreement.

(c) Mitigation. The Executive shall be under no obligation to seek other employment or otherwise mitigate the obligations of the Company under this Agreement.

(d) Tax Withholding; Section 409A. The Company may withhold from any amount or benefit payable under this Agreement any taxes that it is required to withhold by applicable law or regulation. In addition, if the payment or provision of any amount or benefit hereunder at the time specified in this Agreement would subject such amount or benefit to any “additional tax”,

3

interest or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, then the payment or provision of such amount or benefit shall be postponed to the earliest commencement date on which the payment or the provision of such amount or benefit could be made without incurring such “additional tax”, interest or penalties. In addition, to the extent either Party hereto reasonably determines that any provision of this Agreement would subject the Executive to “additional tax”, interest and penalties under Section 409A, the parties agree in good faith to cooperate to reform this Agreement in a manner that would avoid the imposition of such “additional tax”, interest or penalties on the Executive while preserving any affected benefit or payment to the extent reasonably practicable without materially increasing the cost to the Company.

(e) Amendment or Modification; Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived unless such amendment, modification or waiver shall be agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and a duly authorized officer of the Company. No waiver by any party hereto of any failure of any other party to keep or perform any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same, or any other covenant or condition.

(f) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of (i) the Company and its successors and assigns and (ii) the Executive and the Executive’s heirs, executors, administrators and legal representatives. No rights or obligations of the Company under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Company except that such rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred upon the approval of the Executive which shall not be unreasonably withheld or pursuant to a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the continuing entity, or a sale or liquidation of all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Company, provided that the assignee or transferee is the successor to all or substantially all of the business and assets of the Company and that such assignee or transferee assumes the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company, as contained in this Agreement, either contractually or as a matter of law. In the event of any liquidation, or sale of business or assets, as described in the preceding sentence, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause such assignee or transferee to expressly assume the liabilities, obligations and duties of the Company hereunder. No rights or obligations of the Executive under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred by the Executive other than his rights to compensation and benefits, which may be transferred only by will or operation of law, except as provided in Section 4(g) below.

(g) Beneficiaries/References. The Executive shall be entitled, to the extent permitted under any applicable law, to select and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit hereunder following the Executive’s death by giving the Company written notice thereof. In the event of the Executive’s death or a judicial determination of his incompetence, reference in this Agreement to the Executive shall be deemed, where appropriate, to refer to his beneficiary, estate or other legal representative, as applicable.

(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with its Exhibits) constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between the parties concerning the specific subject matter hereof and supersedes in its entirety, as of the Effective Date, any prior agreement between the parties (including but not limited to the Employment Agreement, other than as expressly provided in this Section 4).

4

(i)Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia.

(j)Notices. All notices required or permitted to be given by either party hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently given if mailed by registered or certified mail, or personally delivered to the party entitled thereto at the address set forth in the Employment Agreement for such party.

(k) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts with the same effect as if the signatures to all such counterparts were upon the same instrument, and all such counterparts shall constitute but one instrument.

(l)Headings. The headings of sections and subsections are included solely for convenience of reference and shall not control the meaning or interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
