RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
CONN’S, INC.
2016 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made by and between CONN’S, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [______________] (“Recipient”) as of [_______________] pursuant to the Company’s 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. 
RECITALS
The Committee, acting on behalf of the Company, wishes to grant Recipient Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below and in the Plan.
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined in this Agreement will have the meaning assigned to them in the Plan.
AGREEMENT
It is hereby agreed as follows:
1.    Award of Restricted Stock Units.  The Company hereby grants to Recipient, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement, [__________] RSUs, effective as of [_________________] (the “Date of Grant”).  Each RSU represents the unfunded, unsecured right to receive one share of the Company’s $0.01 par value common stock, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement.  The shares of stock that are issuable upon vesting of the RSUs granted to Recipient pursuant to this Agreement are referred to in this Agreement as the “Shares”.
2.    Vesting.
2.1    Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in Section 2.2, the RSUs will vest ratably in [____] equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the Date of Grant.

3.    Delivery upon Vesting.  
3.1    Subject to Section 3.3, within thirty (30) days following vesting of an RSU, the Company or, at the Company’s instruction, its authorized representative, will deliver to Recipient the underlying Share.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, delivery of Shares pursuant to this Agreement may be accomplished in any manner that the Company or its authorized representatives deem appropriate including, without limitation, electronic registration, book-entry registration or issuance of a stock certificate or certificates in the name of Recipient.  
3.2    The delivery of Shares is conditioned on Recipient’s satisfaction of any applicable withholding taxes in accordance with Section 12 of the Plan.
3.3    This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and shall be interpreted and construed consistently with such intent.  In the event the terms of this Agreement would subject Recipient to taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code (“409A Penalties”), the Company and Recipient shall cooperate diligently to amend the terms of the Agreement to avoid such 409A Penalties, to the extent possible; provided that in no event shall the Company be responsible for any 409A Penalties that arise in connection with any amounts payable under this Agreement.  To the extent any amounts under this Agreement are payable by reference to Recipient’s “termination of employment,” such term shall be deemed to refer to Recipient’s “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if Recipient is a “specified employee,” as defined in Section 409A of the Code, as of the date of Recipient’s separation from service, then to the extent any amount payable under this Agreement (i) constitutes the payment of nonqualified deferred compensation, within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) is payable upon Recipient’s separation from service and (iii) under the terms of this Agreement would be payable prior to the six-month anniversary of Recipient’s separation from service, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier to occur of (a) the six-month anniversary of the separation from service or (b) the date of Recipient’s death.  
4.    Effect of Termination of Employment or Other Service.  If Recipient’s employment or other service with the Company terminates, the effect of the termination on Recipient’s RSUs under this Agreement will be as set forth in Section 11 of the Plan.  
5.    Restrictions on Transfer of RSUs.  The RSUs will not be transferable, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except as provided in Section 14.3 of the Plan.
6.    Rights as a Stockholder.  Except as set forth in the Plan, neither Recipient nor any person claiming under or through Recipient shall be, or have any of the rights or privileges of, a 

stockholder of the Company in respect of a Share issuable pursuant to this Award unless and until such Share shall have been delivered.  
7.    No Right to Employment.  Nothing contained in this Agreement obligates the Company to employ or have another relationship with Recipient for any period or interfere in any way with the right of the Company to reduce Recipient’s compensation or to terminate the employment of or relationship with Recipient at any time.
8.    Clawback.  The RSUs and any cash payment or Shares delivered pursuant to this Agreement are subject to forfeiture, recovery by the Company or other action pursuant to any clawback or recoupment policy which the Company may adopt from time to time, including without limitation any such policy which the Company may be required to adopt under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and implementing rules and regulations thereunder, or as otherwise required by law.
9.    Miscellaneous.

9.4    Choice of Law and Severability.  This Agreement shall be construed, enforced and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.  The invalidity of any provision of this Agreement will not affect any other provision of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect.

AMENDMENT NO. 8

TO

SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED

CINEDIGM CORP. 2000 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

AMENDMENT NO. 8, dated as of September 8, 2016 (this "Amendment"), to the Second Amended and Restated 2000 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the "Plan") of Cinedigm Corp. (f/k/a Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. and f/k/a Access Integrated Technologies, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the "Corporation").

WHEREAS, the Corporation maintains the Plan, effective as of June 1, 2000; and

WHEREAS, the Corporation deems it to be in the best interest of the Corporation and its stockholders to amend the Plan in order to specify the permitted uses, with respect to future grants, of shares subject to earlier grants that were terminated, forfeited, expired or cancelled and/or for which such shares were never issued.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED the Plan is hereby amended as follows:

1. Section 5.2 shall be revised and replaced in its entirety to read as follows:

"The total number of shares of Stock (including Restricted Stock, if any) optioned or granted under this Plan during the term of the Plan shall not exceed 1,430,000 shares. If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or, with respect to Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units or Performance Shares, is forfeited to, or repurchased by, the Company due to failure to vest, then the unpurchased Shares (or for Awards other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights the forfeited or repurchased Shares), which were subject thereto will become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). With respect to Stock Appreciation Rights, the gross Shares issued (i.e., Shares actually issued pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right, as well as the Shares that represent payment of the exercise price and any applicable tax withholdings) pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right will cease to be available under the Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an Award or to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an Award will not become available for future grant or sale under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. For purposes of clarification, no Shares purchased by the Company with proceeds received from the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will become available for issuance under this Plan."

2. This Amendment shall be effective as of the date first set forth above.

3. In all respects not amended, the Plan is hereby ratified and confirmed and remains in full force and effect.

CINEDIGM CORP.
