the Exchange Act or (ii) who are, or who are reasonably expected to be, “covered employees” for purposes of Code Section 162(m). 
 (d) Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Award or any documents evidencing Awards granted
pursuant to the Plan shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons or entities, including, without limitation, the Company, any Affiliate, any Participant,
any holder or beneficiary of any Award, and any shareholder of the Company. 
 (e) No member of the Board, the Committee or any employee or
agent of the Company (each such person, an “Indemnifiable Person”) shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken or any determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award hereunder. Each
Indemnifiable Person shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense (including attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or incurred by such Indemnifiable Person in connection with
or resulting from any action, suit or proceeding to which such Indemnifiable Person may be a party or in which such Indemnifiable Person may be involved by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Plan or any Award agreement and
against and from any and all amounts paid by such Indemnifiable Person with the Company’s approval, in settlement thereof, or paid by such Indemnifiable Person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding 

 

 6 

 against such Indemnifiable Person, provided that the Company shall have the right, at its own expense, to assume and
defend any such action, suit or proceeding and once the Company gives notice of its intent to assume the defense, the Company shall have sole control over such defense with counsel of the Company’s choice. The foregoing right of indemnification
shall not be available to an Indemnifiable Person to the extent that a final judgment or other final adjudication (in either case not subject to further appeal) binding upon such Indemnifiable Person determines that the acts or omissions of such
Indemnifiable Person giving rise to the indemnification claim resulted from such Indemnifiable Person’s bad faith, fraud or willful criminal act or omission or that such right of indemnification is otherwise prohibited by law or by the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such Indemnifiable Persons may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any other power that the Company may have to indemnify such Indemnifiable Persons or hold them harmless. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards and administer the Plan with respect to such Awards. In any
such case, the Board shall have all the authority granted to the Committee under the Plan. 
 5. Grant of Awards; Shares Subject to the Plan;
Limitations. (a) The Committee may, from time to time, grant Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Bonus Awards and/or Performance Compensation Awards to one or more Eligible Persons. 
 (b) Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than 4,266
shares of Common Stock may be delivered in the aggregate pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan; provided that on each of January 1, 2008, January 1, 2009, January 1, 2010, January 1, 2011 and January 1,
2012, the maximum number of shares deliverable under this clause (i) as in effect on the immediately preceding December 31 shall be increased by a number of shares of Common Stock equal to two percent (2%) of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock (on a fully-diluted basis) on such date (such maximum number of shares, as in effect at any time hereunder, the “Share Limit”); (ii) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than the lesser of (A) the
Share Limit and (B) 7,110 shares of Common Stock may be subject to grants of Options or SARs under the Plan to any single Participant during any calendar year; (iii) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than the lesser of
(A) the Share Limit and (B) 7,110 shares of Common Stock may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan; (iv) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than the lesser of (A) the
Share Limit and (B) 7,110 shares of Common Stock may be delivered in respect of Performance Compensation Awards granted pursuant to Section 11 of the Plan to any single Participant for a single Performance Period, or in the event such
Performance Compensation Award is paid in cash, other securities, other Awards or other property, no more than the Fair Market Value of the lesser of (A) the Share Limit and (B) 7,110 shares of Common Stock on the last day of the
Performance Period to which such Award relates; and (v) the maximum amount that can be paid to any single Participant for a single Performance Period pursuant to a cash bonus Award described in Section 11(a) of the Plan shall be
$3,000,000. 
 (c) Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been used in settlement of Awards whether or not they are actually
delivered or the Fair Market Value equivalent of such shares is paid in cash; provided, however, that if shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise, 
  

 7 

 vesting or settlement of an Award, or shares of Common Stock owned by a Participant are surrendered or tendered to the
Company (either directly or by means of attestation) in payment of the Exercise Price of an Award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an Award, in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan and any applicable
Award agreement, such surrendered or tendered shares shall again become available for other Awards under the Plan; provided, further, that in no event shall such shares increase the number of shares of Common Stock that may be
delivered pursuant to Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan. In accordance with (and without limitation upon) the preceding sentence, if and to the extent an Award under the Plan expires, terminates or is canceled or forfeited for any
reason whatsoever without the Participant having received any benefit therefrom, the shares covered by such Award shall again become available for other Awards under the Plan. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, a Participant shall not be deemed
to have received any “benefit” (i) in the case of forfeited Restricted Stock by reason of having enjoyed voting rights and dividend rights prior to the date of forfeiture or (ii) in the case of an Award canceled by reason of a
new Award being granted in substitution therefor. 
 (d) Shares of Common Stock delivered by the Company in settlement of Awards may be
authorized and unissued shares, shares held in the treasury of the Company, shares purchased on the open market or by private purchase, or a combination of the foregoing. 
 (e) Awards may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be granted under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or any Affiliate or an entity acquired
by the Company or with which the Company combines (“Substitute Awards”). The number of shares of Common Stock underlying any Substitute Awards shall be counted against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for
Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or the substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity that is acquired by the Company or any Affiliate
through a merger or acquisition shall not be counted against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards under the Plan; provided, further, that Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or
in substitution for, outstanding options intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code that were previously granted by an entity that is acquired by the Company or any Affiliate through
a merger or acquisition shall be counted against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan. 
 6. Eligibility. Participation shall be limited to Eligible Persons who have entered into an Award agreement or who have received written notification from the Committee, or from a person designated by the Committee, that they have
been selected to participate in the Plan. 
 7. Options. (a) Generally. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award
agreement. Each Option so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 7, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award agreement. All Options granted under the
Plan shall be Nonqualified Stock Options unless the applicable Award agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Eligible Persons who are employees of the
Company and its Affiliates, and no Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any Eligible Person who is ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option under the Code. No Option shall be treated as an Incentive Stock Option unless the Plan has been
approved by the shareholders of the Company in a manner intended to comply with the shareholder approval requirements of Section 422(b)(1) of the Code, provided that any Option intended to be an 
  

 8 

 Incentive Stock Option shall not fail to be effective solely on account of a failure to obtain such approval, but rather
such Option shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option unless and until such approval is obtained. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the terms and conditions of such grant shall be subject to and comply with such rules as may be
prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. If for any reason an Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option or
portion thereof shall be regarded as a Nonqualified Stock Option appropriately granted under the Plan. 
 (b) Exercise Price.
Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the case of Substitute Awards, the exercise price (“Exercise Price”) per share of Common Stock for each Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such share
(determined as of the Date of Grant); provided, however, that (i) except as otherwise provided by the Committee at the time an Option is granted and set forth in the applicable Award agreement, the Exercise Price of each share of Common Stock
covered by an Option that is granted effective as of the Company’s IPO shall be the IPO price per share of Common Stock and (ii) in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant of such Option,
owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the Exercise Price per share shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per share on the Date of Grant. 
 (c) Vesting and Expiration. Options shall vest and become exercisable in such manner
and on such date or dates determined by the Committee and shall expire after such period, not to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the Committee (the “Option Period”); provided, however, that the Option Period
shall not exceed five years from the Date of Grant in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who on the Date of Grant owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any
Affiliate; provided, further, that notwithstanding any vesting dates set by the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the exercisability of any Option, which acceleration shall not affect the terms and
conditions of such Option other than with respect to exercisability. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award agreement: (i) an Option shall vest and become exercisable with respect to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares
of Common Stock subject to such Option on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date and with respect to an additional six and one-quarter percent (6 1/4%) on the last day of each three-month period following thereafter; (ii) the unvested portion of an Option shall expire upon termination of employment or service of the
Participant granted the Option with the Company and its Affiliates, and the vested portion of such Option shall remain exercisable for (A) one year following termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates by reason of
such Participant’s death or disability (as determined by the Committee), but not later than the expiration of the Option Period or (B) 90 days following termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates for any
reason other than such Participant’s death or disability, and other than such Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates for Cause, but not later than the expiration of the Option Period; and
(iii) both the unvested and the vested portion of an Option shall expire upon the termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates by the Company for Cause. 
 (d) Method of Exercise and Form of Payment. No shares of Common Stock shall be delivered pursuant to any exercise of an Option until payment in
full of the Exercise Price therefor is received by the Company and the Participant has paid to the Company an amount equal to any Federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and employment taxes required to be 
  

 9 

 withheld. Options which have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written or electronic notice of exercise
to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be payable (i) in cash, check, cash equivalent and/or shares of Common Stock valued at the Fair Market Value at the
time the Option is exercised (including, pursuant to procedures approved by the Committee, by means of attestation of ownership of a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock in lieu of actual delivery of such shares to the Company);
provided, that such shares of Common Stock are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and are Mature Shares; (ii) by such other method as the Committee may permit in its sole discretion, including without limitation:
(A) in other property having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the Exercise Price or (B) if there is a public market for the shares of Common Stock at such time, by means of a broker-assisted “cashless
exercise” pursuant to which the Company is delivered a copy of irrevocable instructions to a stockbroker to sell the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount
equal to the Exercise Price or (C) by means of a “net exercise” procedure approved by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the last day of the Option Period, the Fair Market Value exceeds the Exercise Price, the
Participant has not exercised the Option, and the Option has not expired, such Option shall be deemed to have been exercised by the Participant on such last day by means of a net exercise and the Company shall deliver to the Participant the number
of shares of Common Stock for which the Option was deemed exercised less such number of shares of Common Stock required to be withheld to cover the payment of the Exercise Price and all minimum statutory withholding taxes. Any fractional shares of
Common Stock shall be settled in cash. 
 (e) Notification upon Disqualifying Disposition of an Incentive Stock Option. Each
Participant awarded an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the date he makes a disqualifying disposition of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option. A
disqualifying disposition is any disposition (including, without limitation, any sale) of such Common Stock before the later of (A) two years after the Date of Grant of the Incentive Stock Option or (B) one year after the date of exercise
of the Incentive Stock Option. The Company may, if determined by the Committee and in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, retain possession of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option as
agent for the applicable Participant until the end of the period described in the preceding sentence. 
 (f) Buyout. The Committee
may, in its sole discretion, at any time buy out for a payment in cash or the delivery of shares of Common Stock or other property (including, without limitation, another Award), an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as
the Committee shall establish and communicate to the Participant at the time such offer is made. If the Committee so determines, the consent of the affected Participant shall not be required to effect such buyout. 
 (g) Compliance With Laws, etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to exercise an Option in a manner which
the Committee determines would violate the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or any other applicable law or the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or the applicable rules and regulations of any securities exchange
or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or traded. 
 8. Stock Appreciation Rights. (a) Generally.
Each SAR granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award agreement. Each SAR so granted shall be subject to the conditions set

 forth in this Section 8, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the
applicable Award agreement. Any Option granted under the Plan may include tandem SARs. The Committee also may award SARs to Eligible Persons independent of any Option. 
 (b) Strike Price. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the case of Substitute Awards, the strike price (“Strike Price”) per share of Common Stock for each SAR shall not be
less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of such share (determined as of the Date of Grant); provided, however, that except as otherwise provided by the Committee at the time an Option is granted and set forth in the applicable Award agreement, the
Strike Price of each share of Common Stock covered by a SAR that is granted effective as of the Company’s IPO shall be the IPO price per share of Common Stock. 
 (c) Vesting and Expiration. A SAR granted in connection with an Option shall become
exercisable and shall expire according to the same vesting schedule and expiration provisions as the corresponding Option. A SAR granted independent of an Option shall vest and become exercisable and shall expire in such manner and on such date or
dates determined by the Committee and shall expire after such period, not to exceed ten years, as may be determined by the Committee (the “SAR Period”); provided, however, that notwithstanding any vesting dates set by
the Committee, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the exercisability of any SAR, which acceleration shall not affect the terms and conditions of such SAR other than with respect to exercisability. Unless otherwise provided by the
Committee in an Award agreement: (i) a SAR shall vest and become exercisable with respect to twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares of Common Stock subject to such SAR on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date and with
respect to an additional six and one-quarter percent (6 1/4%) on the last day of each three-month period
following thereafter; (ii) the unvested portion of a SAR shall expire upon termination of employment or service of the Participant granted the SAR with the Company and its Affiliates, and the vested portion of such SAR shall remain exercisable
for (A) one year following termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates by reason of such Participant’s death or disability (as determined by the Committee), but not later than the expiration of the SAR Period
or (B) 90 days following termination of employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates for any reason other than such Participant’s death or disability, and other than such Participant’s termination of employment or service
with the Company and its Affiliates for Cause, but not later than the expiration of the SAR Period; and (iii) both the unvested and the vested portion of a SAR shall expire upon the termination of the Participant’s employment or service
with the Company and its Affiliates by the Company for Cause. 
 (d) Method of Exercise. SARs which have become
exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Award, specifying the number of SARs to be exercised and the date on which such SARs were awarded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the last day of the Option Period (or in the case of a SAR independent of an option, the SAR Period), the Fair Market Value exceeds the Strike Price, the Participant has not exercised the SAR or the corresponding
Option (if applicable), and neither the SAR nor the corresponding Option (if applicable) has expired, such SAR shall be deemed to have been exercised by the Participant on such last day and the Company shall make the appropriate payment therefor.

 (e) Payment. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the number of shares
subject to the SAR that are being exercised multiplied by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the exercise 
  

 11 

 date over the Strike Price, less an amount equal to any Federal, state, local and non-U.S. income and employment taxes
required to be withheld. The Company shall pay such amount in cash, in shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. Any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be settled in cash.

 (f) Substitution of SARs for Nonqualified Stock Options. The Committee shall have the authority in its sole discretion to
substitute, without the consent of the affected Participant or any holder or beneficiary of SARs, SARs settled in shares of Common Stock (or settled in shares or cash in the sole discretion of the Committee) for outstanding Nonqualified Stock
Options, provided that (i) the substitution shall not otherwise result in a modification of the terms of any such Nonqualified Stock Option, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the substituted SARs shall be the same as the
number of shares of Common Stock underlying such Nonqualified Stock Options and (iii) the Strike Price of the substituted SARs shall be equal to the Exercise Price of such Nonqualified Stock Options; provided, however, that if, in
the opinion of the Company’s independent public auditors, the foregoing provision creates adverse accounting consequences for the Company, such provision shall be considered null and void. 
 9. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. (a) Generally. Each grant of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award
agreement. Each such grant shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award agreement. 
 (b) Stock Certificates; Escrow or Similar Arrangement. Upon the grant of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall cause a stock certificate
registered in the name of the Participant to be issued and, if the Committee determines that the Restricted Stock shall be held by the Company or in escrow rather than delivered to the Participant pending the release of the applicable restrictions,
the Committee may require the Participant to additionally execute and deliver to the Company (i) an escrow agreement satisfactory to the Committee, if applicable, and (ii) the appropriate stock power (endorsed in blank) with respect to the
Restricted Stock covered by such agreement. If a Participant shall fail to execute an agreement evidencing an Award of Restricted Stock and, if applicable, an escrow agreement and blank stock power within the amount of time specified by the
Committee, the Award shall be null and void. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 9 and the applicable Award agreement, the Participant generally shall have the rights and privileges of a shareholder as to such Restricted
Stock, including without limitation the right to vote such Restricted Stock. To the extent shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited, any stock certificates issued to the Participant evidencing such shares shall be returned to the Company, and all
rights of the Participant to such shares and as a shareholder with respect thereto shall terminate without further obligation on the part of the Company. 
 (c) Vesting; Acceleration of Lapse of Restrictions. Unless otherwise provided by the
Committee in an Award agreement: (i) the Restricted Period shall lapse with respect to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units on the first anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date and with respect
to an additional six and one-quarter percent (6 1/4%) on the last day of each three-month period thereafter;
and (ii) the unvested portion of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall terminate and be forfeited upon termination of employment or service of the Participant granted the applicable Award. The Committee may in its sole discretion
accelerate the lapse of any or all of the restrictions on the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units which acceleration shall not affect any other terms and conditions of such Awards. 
  

 12 

 (d) Delivery of Restricted Stock and Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. (i) Upon the
expiration of the Restricted Period with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock, the restrictions set forth in the applicable Award agreement shall be of no further force or effect with respect to such shares, except as set forth in the
applicable Award agreement. If an escrow arrangement is used, upon such expiration, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, or his beneficiary, without charge, the stock certificate evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock which have not then
been forfeited and with respect to which the Restricted Period has expired (rounded down to the nearest full share). Dividends, if any, that may have been withheld by the Committee and attributable to any particular share of Restricted Stock shall
be distributed to the Participant in cash or, at the sole discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount of such dividends, upon the release of restrictions on such share and, if such share is
forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such dividends. 
 (ii) Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an
Award agreement, upon the expiration of the Restricted Period with respect to any outstanding Restricted Stock Units, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, or his beneficiary, without charge, one share of Common Stock for each such
outstanding Restricted Stock Unit; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to (i) pay cash or part cash and part Common Stock in lieu of delivering only shares of Common Stock in respect of such
Restricted Stock Units or (ii) defer the delivery of Common Stock (or cash or part Common Stock and part cash, as the case may be) beyond the expiration of the Restricted Period. If a cash payment is made in lieu of delivering shares of Common
Stock, the amount of such payment shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock as of the date on which the Restricted Period lapsed with respect to such Restricted Stock Units, less an amount equal to any Federal, state, local and
non-U.S. income and employment taxes required to be withheld. 
 (e) Legends on Restricted Stock. Each certificate representing
Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan shall bear a legend substantially in the form of the following in addition to any other information the Company deems appropriate until the lapse of all restrictions with respect to such Common Stock:

 TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS RESTRICTED PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE DICE HOLDINGS, INC. 2007 EQUITY
AWARD PLAN AND A RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF                     , BETWEEN DICE HOLDINGS, INC. AND
                    . A COPY OF SUCH PLAN AND AWARD AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF DICE HOLDINGS, INC. 

10. Stock Bonus Awards. The Committee may issue unrestricted Common Stock, or other Awards denominated in Common Stock, under the Plan to Eligible Persons,
alone or in tandem with other Awards, in such amounts as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole discretion determine. Each Stock Bonus Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award agreement. Each Stock Bonus Award so
granted shall be subject to such conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award agreement. 
 11. Performance
Compensation Awards. (a) Generally. The Committee shall have the authority, at the time of grant of any Award described in Sections 7 through 10 of the Plan, to designate such Award as a Performance Compensation Award intended to
qualify as 
  

 13 

 “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee shall have the authority
to grant cash bonuses under the Plan with the intent that such bonuses shall qualify for the exemption from Section 162(m) of the Code provided pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f)(1), for the reliance period described in
Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f)(2). In addition, the Committee shall have the authority to make an award of a cash bonus to any Participant and designate such Award as a Performance Compensation Award intended to qualify as
“performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. 
 (b) Discretion of Committee with Respect to
Performance Compensation Awards. With regard to a particular Performance Period, the Committee shall have sole discretion to select the length of such Performance Period, the type(s) of Performance Compensation Awards to be issued, the
Performance Criteria that will be used to establish the Performance Goal(s), the kind(s) and/or level(s) of the Performance Goal(s) that is (are) to apply and the Performance Formula. Within the first 90 days of a Performance Period (or, if longer
or shorter, within the maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, with regard to the Performance Compensation Awards to be issued for such Performance Period, exercise its discretion with respect to each of
the matters enumerated in the immediately preceding sentence and record the same in writing. 
 (c) Performance Criteria. The
Performance Criteria that will be used to establish the Performance Goal(s) shall be based on the attainment of specific levels of performance of the Company (and/or one or more Affiliates, divisions or operational units, or any combination of the
foregoing) and shall be limited to the following: (i) net earnings or net income (before or after taxes); (ii) basic or diluted earnings per share (before or after taxes); (iii) net revenue or net revenue growth; (iv) gross
profit or gross profit growth; (v) net operating profit (before or after taxes); (vi) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on assets, capital, invested capital, equity, or sales); (vii) cash flow (including, but not
limited to, operating cash flow, free cash flow, and cash flow return on capital); (viii) earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation and/or amortization; (ix) gross or operating margins; (x) productivity ratios;
(xi) share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total shareholder return); (xii) expense targets; (xiii) margins; (xiv) operating efficiency; (xv) objective measures of customer satisfaction;
(xvi) working capital targets; (xvii) measures of economic value added; and (xviii) enterprise value. Any one or more of the Performance Criteria may be used on an absolute or relative basis to measure the performance of the Company
and/or one or more Affiliates as a whole or any business unit(s) of the Company and/or one or more Affiliates or any combination thereof, as the Committee may deem appropriate, or any of the above Performance Criteria may be compared to the
performance of a group of comparator companies, or a published or special index that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate, or as compared to various stock market indices. The Committee also has the authority to provide for
accelerated vesting of any Award based on the achievement of Performance Goals pursuant to the Performance Criteria specified in this paragraph. To the extent required under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall, within the first 90
days of a Performance Period (or, if longer or shorter, within the maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), define in an objective fashion the manner of calculating the Performance Criteria it selects to use for such
Performance Period. 
 (d) Modification of Performance Goal(s). In the event that applicable tax and/or securities laws change to
permit Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance Criteria without obtaining shareholder approval of such alterations, the Committee shall have sole discretion to make such alterations without obtaining shareholder approval. The
Committee is authorized at any time during the first 90 days of a Performance Period (or, if longer or shorter, within the maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), or at any time thereafter 
  

 14 

 to the extent the exercise of such authority at such time would not cause the Performance Compensation Awards granted to
any Participant for such Performance Period to fail to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, in its sole discretion, to adjust or modify the calculation of a Performance Goal for such
Performance Period, based on and in order to appropriately reflect the following events: (i) asset write-downs; (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements; (iii) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles, or
other laws or regulatory rules affecting reported results; (iv) any reorganization and restructuring programs; (v) extraordinary nonrecurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 (or any successor
pronouncement thereto) and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to shareholders for the applicable year; (vi) acquisitions or
divestitures; (vii) any other specific unusual or nonrecurring events, or objectively determinable category thereof; (viii) foreign exchange gains and losses; and (ix) a change in the Company’s fiscal year. 
 (e) Payment of Performance Compensation Awards. (i) Condition to Receipt of Payment. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award
agreement, a Participant must be employed by the Company on the last day of a Performance Period to be eligible for payment in respect of a Performance Compensation Award for such Performance Period. 
 (ii) Limitation. A Participant shall be eligible to receive payment in respect of a Performance Compensation Award only to the
extent that: (A) the Performance Goals for such period are achieved; and (B) all or some of the portion of such Participant’s Performance Compensation Award has been earned for the Performance Period based on the application of the
Performance Formula to such achieved Performance Goals. 
 (iii) Certification. Following the completion of a
Performance Period, the Committee shall review and certify in writing whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance Period have been achieved and, if so, calculate and certify in writing that amount of the Performance
Compensation Awards earned for the period based upon the Performance Formula. The Committee shall then determine the amount of each Participant’s Performance Compensation Award actually payable for the Performance Period and, in so doing, may
apply Negative Discretion. 
 (iv) Use of Negative Discretion. In determining the actual amount of an individual
Participant’s Performance Compensation Award for a Performance Period, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Performance Compensation Award earned under the Performance Formula in the Performance Period through the use of
Negative Discretion if, in its sole judgment, such reduction or elimination is appropriate. The Committee shall not have the discretion to (A) grant or provide payment in respect of Performance Compensation Awards for a Performance Period if
the Performance Goals for such Performance Period have not been attained; or (B) increase a Performance Compensation Award above the applicable limitations set forth in Section 5 of the Plan. 
 (f) Timing of Award Payments. Performance Compensation Awards granted for a Performance Period shall be paid to Participants as soon as
administratively practicable following completion of the certifications required by this Section 11. Any Performance Compensation Award that has been deferred shall not (between the date as of which the Award is deferred and the payment date)
increase (i) with respect to a Performance Compensation Award that is payable in cash, by a measuring factor for each fiscal year greater than a reasonable rate of interest set by 
  

 15 

 the Committee or (ii) with respect to a Performance Compensation Award that is payable in shares of Common Stock, by
an amount greater than the appreciation of a share of Common Stock from the date such Award is deferred to the payment date. 
 12. Changes in Capital
Structure and Similar Events. (a) Awards granted under the Plan and any agreements evidencing such Awards, (b) any or all of the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other
securities or other property) which may be delivered in respect of Awards or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan (including, without limitation, any or all of the limitations under Section 5 of the Plan) and (c) the
terms of any outstanding Award, including, without limitation, (i) the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) subject to outstanding Awards or to which
outstanding Awards relate, (ii) the Exercise Price or Strike Price with respect to any Award or (iii) any applicable performance measures (including, without limitation, Performance Criteria and Performance Goals) shall be adjusted or
substituted, in such manner as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as to the number, price or kind of share of Common Stock or other consideration subject to such Awards or as otherwise determined by the Committee to be equitable, to
preserve the economic value of such Awards (i.e., such that such value shall be neither increased nor decreased on account of such transaction or event) (A) in the event of changes in the outstanding Common Stock or in the capital structure of
the Company by reason of stock or extraordinary cash dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalization, reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, separations, combinations, exchanges, spin-offs, liquidations, other substantial
distributions of the assets of the Company, or other relevant corporate transactions or changes in capitalization occurring after the Date of Grant of any such Award or (B) in the event of any change in applicable laws or any change in
circumstances which results in or would result in any substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants, or which otherwise warrants equitable adjustment because it interferes with the intended operation of
the Plan. Any adjustment in Incentive Stock Options under this Section 12 shall be made only to the extent not constituting a “modification” within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code, and any adjustments under this
Section 12 shall be made in a manner which does not adversely affect the exemption provided pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. Further, with respect to Awards granted on and after the 162(m) Effective Date which are intended to
qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, such adjustments or substitutions shall be made only to the extent that the Committee determines that such adjustments or substitutions may be made without
causing the Company to be denied a tax deduction on account of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Company shall give each Participant notice of an adjustment hereunder and, upon notice, such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes. 
 Notwithstanding the above, in the event of any of the following: 
 A. The Company is merged or consolidated with another corporation or entity and, in connection therewith, consideration is received by shareholders of the
Company in a form other than stock or other equity interests of the surviving entity; 
 B. All or substantially all of the assets of the
Company are acquired by another person; 
 C. The reorganization or liquidation of the Company; or 
  

 16 

 D. The Company shall enter into a written agreement to undergo an event described in clauses A, B or C
above, 
 then the Committee may, in its discretion and upon at least 10 days advance notice to the affected persons, cancel any outstanding Awards and cause
to be paid to the holders thereof, in cash or stock, or any combination thereof, the value of such Awards (whether or not vested or exercisable) based upon the price per share of Common Stock received or to be received by other shareholders of the
Company in the event. The terms of this Section 12 may be varied by the Committee in any particular Award agreement. 
 13. Effect of Change in
Control. Except to the extent otherwise provided in an Award agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may in its sole discretion provide that, with respect to any
particular outstanding Award or Awards: 
 (a) all then-outstanding Options and SARs shall become immediately exercisable as of immediately
prior to the Change in Control with respect to up to 100 percent of the shares subject to such Option or SAR; 
 (b) the Restricted Period
shall expire as of immediately prior to the Change in Control with respect to up to 100 percent of then-outstanding shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units (including without limitation a waiver of any applicable Performance Goals);

 (c) all incomplete Performance Periods in effect on the date the Change in Control occurs shall end on such date, and the Committee may
(i) determine the extent to which Performance Goals with respect to each such Performance Period have been met based upon such audited or unaudited financial information or other information then available as it deems relevant and
(ii) cause the Participant to receive partial or full payment of Awards for each such Performance Period based upon the Committee’s determination of the degree of attainment of Performance Goals, or assuming that the applicable
“target” levels of performance have been attained or on such other basis determined by the Committee; and 
 (d) cause Awards
previously deferred to be settled in full as soon as practicable. 
 To the extent practicable, any actions taken by the Committee under the
immediately preceding clauses (a) through (d) shall occur in a manner and at a time which allows affected Participants the ability to participate in the Change in Control transaction with respect to the Common Stock subject to their
Awards. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, except to the extent otherwise provided in an Award agreement, if a Participant’s employment
with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated without Cause within one year following a Change in Control, all then-outstanding Awards held by the Participant shall vest, and all Options and SARS held by the Participant shall become exercisable,
and any applicable Performance Goals shall be waived. 
 14. Amendments and Termination. (a) Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board
may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without shareholder approval if such approval is
necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement applicable to the Plan (including, without limitation, as necessary to 
  

 17 

 comply with any rules or requirements of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the shares of
Common Stock may be listed or quoted or to prevent the Company from being denied a tax deduction under Section 162(m) of the Code); provided, further, that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination
that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary.

 (b) Amendment of Award Agreements. The Committee may, to the extent consistent with the terms of any applicable Award agreement,
waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted or the associated Award agreement, prospectively or retroactively; provided that any such waiver,
amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant with respect to any Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the
consent of the affected Participant; provided, further, that without shareholder approval, except as otherwise permitted under Section 12 of the Plan, (i) no amendment or modification may reduce the Exercise Price of any
Option or the Strike Price of any SAR, (ii) the Committee may not cancel any outstanding Option or SAR and replace it with a new Option or SAR (with a lower Exercise Price or Strike Price, as the case may be) in a manner which would either
(A) be reportable on the Company’s proxy statement as Options which have been “repriced” (as such term is used in Item 402 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Exchange Act), or (B) result in any
“repricing” for financial statement reporting purposes (or otherwise cause the Award to fail to qualify for equity accounting treatment) and (iii) the Committee may not take any other action which is considered a “repricing”
for purposes of the shareholder approval rules of the applicable securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted. 
 15. General. (a) Award Agreements. Each Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant and shall specify the terms and conditions of the Award
any rules applicable thereto, including without limitation, the effect on such Award of the death, disability or termination of employment or service of a Participant, or of such other events as may be determined by the Committee. 
 (b) Nontransferability. (i) Each Award shall be exercisable only by a Participant during the Participant’s lifetime, or, if permissible under
applicable law, by the Participant’s legal guardian or representative. No Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or an Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an
assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) to be transferred by a Participant, without consideration, subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt consistent with any applicable Award agreement to
preserve the purposes of the Plan, to: (A) any person who is a “family member” of the Participant, as such term is used in the instructions to Form S-8 under the Securities Act (collectively, the “Immediate Family
Members”); (B) a trust solely for the benefit of the Participant and his or her Immediate Family Members; (C) a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or shareholders are the Participant and his or her
Immediate Family Members; or (D) any other transferee as may be approved either (I) by the Board or the Committee in its sole discretion, or (II) as provided in the applicable Award agreement; 
  

 18 

 (each transferee described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above is hereinafter referred to as
a “Permitted Transferee”); provided that the Participant gives the Committee advance written notice describing the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer and the Committee notifies the Participant in writing that such
a transfer would comply with the requirements of the Plan. 
 (iii) The terms of any Award transferred in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence shall apply to the Permitted Transferee and any reference in the Plan, or in any applicable Award agreement, to a Participant shall be deemed to refer to the Permitted Transferee, except that (A) Permitted
Transferees shall not be entitled to transfer any Award, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (B) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to exercise any transferred Option unless there shall be in effect a
registration statement on an appropriate form covering the shares of Common Stock to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option if the Committee determines, consistent with any applicable Award agreement, that such a registration statement
is necessary or appropriate; (C) the Committee or the Company shall not be required to provide any notice to a Permitted Transferee, whether or not such notice is or would otherwise have been required to be given to the Participant under the
Plan or otherwise; and (D) the consequences of the termination of the Participant’s employment by, or services to, the Company or an Affiliate under the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award agreement shall continue to be applied with
respect to the Participant, including, without limitation, that an Option shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee only to the extent, and for the periods, specified in the Plan and the applicable Award agreement. 
 (c) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. In the sole discretion of the Committee, an Award may provide a Participant with dividends or dividend
equivalents, payable in cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities, other Awards or other property, on a current or deferred basis, on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, including without
limitation, payment directly to the Participant, withholding of such amounts by the Company subject to vesting of the Award or reinvestment in additional shares of Common Stock, Restricted Stock or other Awards. 
 (d) Clawback/Forfeiture. In the sole discretion of the Committee, an Award may provide that if a Participant breaches a noncompetition agreement,
a nonsolicitation agreement or a similar restrictive covenant with the Company or an Affiliate, or a Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause, the Participant shall be required to promptly repay any gains associated
with exercises of Options, SARs or vesting of other Awards during the 12-month period preceding such breach (or termination of employment, as applicable). 
 (e) Tax Withholding. (i) A Participant shall be required to pay to the Company or any Affiliate, and the Company or any Affiliate shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, from any cash,
shares of Common Stock, other securities or other property deliverable under any Award or from any compensation or other amounts owing to a Participant, the amount (in cash, Common Stock, other securities or other property) of any required
withholding taxes in respect of an Award, its exercise, or any payment or transfer under an Award or under the Plan and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee or the Company to satisfy all obligations for the
payment of such withholding and taxes. 
  

 19 

 (ii) Without limiting the generality of clause (i) above, the Committee may, in
its sole discretion, permit a Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability by (A) the delivery of shares of Common Stock (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and are Mature Shares)
owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability or (B) having the Company withhold from the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable pursuant to the exercise or settlement of the
Award a number of shares with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability (but no more than the minimum required statutory withholding liability). 
 (f) No Claim to Awards; No Rights to Continued Employment; Waiver. No employee of the Company or an Affiliate, or other person, shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan or,
having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for a grant of any other Award. There is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards and the
Committee’s determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant and may be made selectively among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. Neither the Plan
nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate, nor shall it be construed as giving any Participant any rights to continued service on the
Board. The Company or any of its Affiliates may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or any
Award agreement. By accepting an Award under the Plan, a Participant shall thereby be deemed to have waived any claim to continued exercise or vesting of an Award or to damages or severance entitlement related to non-continuation of the Award beyond
the period provided under the Plan or any Award agreement, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any written employment contract or other agreement between the Company and its Affiliates and the Participant, whether any such agreement is
executed before, on or after the Date of Grant. 
 (g) International Participants. With respect to Participants who reside or
work outside of the United States of America and who are not (and who are not expect to be) “covered employees” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may in its sole discretion amend the terms of the Plan or
outstanding Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the requirements of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for a Participant, the Company or its Affiliates. 
 (h) Designation and Change of Beneficiary. Each Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of one or more persons as the
beneficiary(ies) who shall be entitled to receive the amounts payable with respect to an Award, if any, due under the Plan upon his death. A Participant may, from time to time, revoke or change his beneficiary designation without the consent of any
prior beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Committee. The last such designation received by the Committee shall be controlling; provided, however, that no designation, or change or revocation thereof, shall be effective
unless received by the Committee prior to the Participant’s death, and in no event shall it be effective as of a date prior to such receipt. If no beneficiary designation is filed by a Participant, the beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or
her spouse or, if the Participant is unmarried at the time of death, his or her estate. 
 (i) Termination of Employment.
Unless determined otherwise by the Committee: (i) neither a temporary absence from employment or service due to illness, vacation or leave of absence nor a transfer from employment or service with the Company to employment or service

  

 20 

 with an Affiliate (or vice-versa) shall be considered a termination of employment or service with the Company or an
Affiliate; and (ii) if a Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates, but such Participant continues to provide services to the Company and its Affiliates in a non-employee capacity (or vice-versa), such change
in status shall not be considered a termination of employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate. 
 (j) No Rights as a
Shareholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or any Award agreement, no person shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership in respect of shares of Common Stock which are subject to Awards hereunder until such
shares have been issued or delivered to that person. 
 (k) Government and Other Regulations. (i) The obligation of the Company to
settle Awards in Common Stock or other consideration shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any Award to the
contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited from offering to sell or selling, any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award unless such shares have been properly registered for sale
pursuant to the Securities Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel, satisfactory to the Company, that such shares may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an
available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale under the Securities Act any of the shares of Common Stock to be offered or
sold under the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to provide that all certificates for shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or any Affiliate delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and
other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, the applicable Award agreement, the Federal securities laws, or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange
or inter-dealer quotation system upon which such shares or other securities are then listed or quoted and any other applicable Federal, state, local or non-U.S. laws, and, without limiting the generality of Section 9 of the Plan, the Committee
may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee reserves the right to add any additional terms or
provisions to any Award granted under the Plan that it in its sole discretion deems necessary or advisable in order that such Award complies with the legal requirements of any governmental entity to whose jurisdiction the Award is subject.

 (ii) The Committee may cancel an Award or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or
contractual restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of shares of Common Stock from the public markets, the Company’s issuance of Common Stock to the Participant, the
Participant’s acquisition of Common Stock from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of Common Stock to the public markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable. If the Committee determines to cancel all or any portion of an Award in
accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Award or portion thereof canceled (determined as of the
applicable exercise date, or the date that the shares would have been vested or delivered, as applicable), over (B) the aggregate Exercise Price or Strike Price (in the case of an Option or SAR, respectively) or any amount payable as a
condition of delivery of shares of Common Stock (in the case of any other Award). Such amount shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the cancellation of such Award or portion thereof. 
  

 21 

 (l) No Section 83(b) Elections Without Consent of Company. No election under
Section 83(b) of the Code or under a similar provision of law may be made unless expressly permitted by the terms of the applicable Award agreement or by action of the Committee in writing prior to the making of such election. If a Participant,
in connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan or otherwise, is expressly permitted to make such election and the Participant makes the election, the Participant shall notify the Company of such election within ten days
of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service or other governmental authority, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code or other applicable provision. 
 (m) Payments to Persons Other Than Participants. If the Committee shall find that any person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan
is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such person or his estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may, if the
Committee so directs the Company, be paid to his spouse, child, relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such person, or any other person deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such person otherwise entitled
to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Company therefor. 
 (n)
Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board nor the submission of this Plan to the shareholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such
other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases. 
 (o) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliate, on the one hand, and a Participant or other person or entity, on the other hand. No provision of the Plan or any Award shall require the Company, for the purpose of satisfying any
obligations under the Plan, to purchase assets or place any assets in a trust or other entity to which contributions are made or otherwise to segregate any assets, nor shall the Company maintain separate bank accounts, books, records or other
evidence of the existence of a segregated or separately maintained or administered fund for such purposes. Participants shall have no rights under the Plan other than as unsecured general creditors of the Company, except that insofar as they may
have become entitled to payment of additional compensation by performance of services, they shall have the same rights as other employees under general law. 
 (p) Reliance on Reports. Each member of the Committee and each member of the Board shall be fully justified in acting or failing to act, as the case may be, and shall not be liable for having so acted or
failed to act in good faith, in reliance upon any report made by the independent public accountant of the Company and its Affiliates and/or any other information furnished in connection with the Plan by any agent of the Company or the Committee or
the Board, other than himself. 
 (q) Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment under the Plan shall be taken into account in
determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit sharing, group insurance or other benefit plan of the Company except as otherwise specifically provided in such other plan. 
  

 22 

 (r) Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
internal laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and performed wholly within the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. 
 (s) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award or Award agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction or as to any person or entity or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it
cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be construed or deemed stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or entity or Award
and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 
 (t) Obligations Binding on Successors. The
obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding
to substantially all of the assets and business of the Company. 
 (u) Code Section 162(m) Re-approval. If so determined
by the Committee, (i) the Plan shall be submitted for re-approval by the shareholders of the Company no later than the first meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year
following the calendar year in which the IPO is consummated, and (ii) the provisions of the Plan regarding Performance Compensation Awards shall be submitted for re-approval by the shareholders of the Company no later than the first shareholder
meeting that occurs in the fifth year following the year that shareholders previously approved such provisions following the IPO, in each case for purposes of exempting certain Awards granted after such time from the deduction limitations of
Section 162(m) of the Code. Nothing in this subsection, however, shall affect the validity of Awards granted after such time if such shareholder approval has not been obtained. 
 (v) Expenses; Gender; Titles and Headings. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates.
Masculine pronouns and other words of masculine gender shall refer to both men and women. The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than
such titles or headings shall control.

 SUBLEASE AGREEMENT 
 THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (this “Sublease”) dated as of May 14,

 RECITALS: 
 A. Pursuant to the lease dated November 30, 1999 (together with all amendments,
modifications and exhibits thereto, the “Master Lease”) between Park View Waterside LLC, a Washington limited liability company, successor in interest to The Quadrant Corporation, a Washington corporation, as landlord
(“Landlord”), and Sublandlord, as tenant, Sublandlord is leasing approximately 62,518 rentable square feet of space (the “Premises”) in the Waterside Building located at 651 Canal Drive, Seattle, Washington (the
“Building”) and approximately 117,743 rentable square feet of space in the Park View Building located at 601 N. 34st Street, Seattle, Washington (the “Park View Building”) in the Quadrant Lake Union Center (the “Business
Park”). A copy of the Master Lease is attached hereto as EXHIBIT A. 
 B. Subtenant wishes to sublease from Sublandlord, and
Sublandlord wishes to sublease to Subtenant, approximately 60,071 rentable square feet of space, located on the first, second and third floors of the Building. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties, Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree as
follows: 
  

	1.	Subleased Premises 

 Upon the Commencement Date, as
defined below, Sublandlord hereby subleases to Subtenant and Subtenant hereby subleases from Sublandlord approximately 55,800 rentable square feet of space, located on the first, second and third floors of the Building (the “Subleased
Premises”), as depicted on the site plan attached hereto as EXHIBIT B, upon all of the terms and conditions set forth herein. From and after December 1, 2007, the Subleased Premises shall be expanded to include the additional portion
of the first floor of the Building depicted on Exhibit B-1 attached hereto, consisting of approximately 4,271 rentable square feet thereby increasing the size of the Subleased Premises to 60,071 rentable square feet. The Parties may agree at any
time under this Sublease to measure the rentable square feet of the Subleased Premises in accordance with standards set forth in the Master Lease. If such measurement results in a different sum for the total rentable square feet of the Subleased
Premises, and upon agreement of the Parties on any corrected measurement of rentable square feet, all provisions herein that refer to “rentable square feet” shall be modified to reflect such corrected rentable square feet and any related
calculations based upon rentable square feet shall be redone to reflect the corrected rentable square feet. All provisons of this 

 
Sublease, other than the Term and payment of rent, shall be in effect from the date of mutual execution of this Sublease and Subtenant shall provide to
Sublandlord and Landlord evidence of the insurance required hereunder prior to commencement of any construction or other activity in the Subleased Premises by or on behalf of Subtenant. 
  

	2.	Term 

 The term of this Sublease (the
“Term”) shall commence on the earlier of (a) two weeks from the date of Substantial Completion, as defined below, of the Subleased Premises pursuant to Section 3 or (b) June 1, 2007 (the earlier of such dates, the
“Commencement Date”), provided in each instance that Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease has first been obtained, and shall expire on August 11, 2013 the “Expiration Date,” unless sooner terminated as provided
in this Sublease. Sublandlord hereby agrees with Subtenant that Subtenant shall be entitled to negotiate a lease of the Subleased Premises directly with Landlord, to commence at the expiration of the Master Lease, provided that Landlord and
Sublandlord have then amended the Master Lease to delete the area contained in the Waterside Building from the Premises leased by Sublandlord. 
  

	3.	Improvements to Subleased Premises 

  

	 	3.1	Sublandlord’s Work 

 Sublandlord shall, at its
sole cost and expense, and subject to Landlord’s prior approval pursuant to Section 13.1 of the Master Lease and using union contractors, demise the first floor premises (the “Sublandlord’s Work”) to ensure that first floor
tenants other than Subtenant shall have access to their premises solely through the first floor lobby area. 
  

	 	3.2	Space Planning 

 Upon mutual execution of this
Sublease, Subtenant shall have the right to engage an architect/space planner to develop the preliminary drawings, plans and specifications (the “Design Documents”) for the design and construction of new carpet and paint, and any
additional improvements Subtenant desires to make to the interior of the Subleased Premises (collectively, the “Subtenant Alterations”). Following Sublandlord’s and Landlord’s rights of approval and acceptance of the Design
Documents, as provided for in Section 13.1 of the Master Lease, Subtenant’s architect shall develop detailed construction drawings, plans and specifications substantially in conformance with the Design Documents (the “Construction
Documents”) for approval by Sublandlord and Landlord. 
  

	 	3.3	Construction of Improvements 

 Subtenant shall construct the
Subtenant Alterations in accordance with the Construction Documents. “Substantial Completion” of the Subtenant Alterations shall occur when (a) the City of Seattle has issued a certificate of occupancy for the Subleased Premises, and
(b) the construction of the Subtenant Alterations has reached a stage of completion at which the Subleased Premises may be or becomes occupied by Subtenant and used for their 
  

 PAGE 2 

 
intended purpose. The fact that minor details of construction, mechanical adjustments or decorations, which do not materially interfere with Subtenant’s
use and enjoyment of the Subleased Premises, remain to be performed shall not delay Substantial Completion from having occurred. Subtenant’s selection of contractors and subcontractors shall be subject to Sublandlord’s and Landlord’s
reasonable approval. In selecting its contractors and subcontractors, Subtenant shall only be permitted to use Titan Electric for electrical work, and McKinstry Co. for HVAC and plumbing work to be performed, provided that each such contractor
offers competitive pricing for the work, unless otherwise approved by Sublandlord. All work shall be done by union contractors and subcontractors. 
  

	 	3.4	Improvement Allowance 

 Sublandlord shall provide to
Subtenant an “Improvement Allowance” of up to $837,000 ($15 per rentable square foot for each of the approximately 55,800 rentable square feet) for the Subtenant Alterations, which shall include up to $8,370 ($0.15 per rentable square
foot for each of the approximately 55,800 rentable square feet) toward the cost of inital space plans, (the “Design Costs”). The Design Costs, construction and installation of the Improvements pursuant to the Construction Documents,
including without limitation the cost of engineering and construction drawings, architectural fees and permits, shall be charged against the Improvement Allowance until the Improvement Allowance is exhausted. In the event that the cost of the
Subtenant Alterations exceeds the Improvement Allowance, the excess shall be the sole responsibility of and be paid by Subtenant. Furthermore, in that event that the Design Costs exceed $8,370, the excess Design Costs shall be the sole
responsibility of and be paid by Subtenant. 
  

	 	3.5	Restoration 

 If required by Landlord at the time
Landlord and Sublandlord provides its consent to any alterations or improvements, Subtenant shall, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, at the expiration or termination of this Sublease, remove any alterations or improvements designated by
Landlord, repair any damage caused by removal, and restore the Subleased Premises to the substantially the same condition prior to the Subtenant’s installation of the alterations or improvements.

	 Months 73-end:

 If the Commencement Date falls on other than the first day of a calendar month, rent for the first month of the
term shall be prorated by dividing the number of days remaining in the month by the total number of days included in the month. 
 If the Expiration Date
falls on other than the last day of a calendar month, rent for said month shall be pro rated by dividing the number of days remaining in the Term by the number of days included in the month. 
  

	 	4.2	Additional Rent 

 For purposes of this Sublease,
“Subtenant’s Share” shall be the percentage that the approximate rentable area of the Subleased Premises as stated in this Sublease bears to the approximate rentable area of the Premises as stated in this Sublease. On the Commencement
Date and on the first day of each month thereafter during the Term, in addition to the Base Monthly Rent payable pursuant to Section 4.1, Subtenant shall pay Subtenant’s Share of the amount of Operating Expenses (as defined in the Master
Lease) with respect to the Premises payable by Sublandlord to Landlord pursuant to the Master Lease (“Additional Rent”). Sublandlord shall give Subtenant written notice of Sublandlord’s estimate of the amount of Additional Rent per
month payable pursuant to this Section for each calendar year promptly following Sublandlord’s receipt of Landlord’s estimate of the Operating Costs payable by Sublandlord for the Premises under the Master Lease. Subtenant shall also pay
to Sublandlord as Additional Rent hereunder Subtenant’s Share of any and all sums which Sublandlord may be required to pay Landlord under the terms of the Master Lease other than amounts resulting solely from Sublandlord’s default under
the Master Lease. 
  

	 	4.3	Payment of Rent 

 Base Monthly Rent, Additional Rent
and all other sums payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord under this Sublease, whether or not expressly designated as “rent” (collectively, “Rent”) shall be paid without prior notice, demand, set off, counterclaim, deduction or
defense and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Sublease, without abatement or suspension. All Rent shall be paid to Sublandlord at the address for notices set forth in Section 19, in lawful money of the United States of America, or
to such other person or at such other place as Sublandlord may from time to time designate in writing. Rent for any period during the Term that is for less than one month shall be prorated for the actual number of days in such period. If any
installment of Rent due from Subtenant hereunder is not received by Sublandlord within five (5) business days of the date it becomes due, Subtenant 

  

 PAGE 4 

 
shall pay to Sublandlord on demand an additional sum equal to five percent (5%) of the overdue amount as a late charge; provided, that, prior to the
imposition of such late charge, Subtenant will be entitled to a grace period of five (5) days following notice from Sublandlord with respect to the first (1st) occurrence in any calendar year when any sum is not paid as of the date due. 
  

	5.	Right of First Opportunity 

 If, during the Term
hereof, additional space of Sublandlord on the first floor of the Building becomes available and Sublandlord determines to re-sublease all or part of same, or Sublandlord determines to sublease all or part of Sublandlord’s space in the Park
View Building (collectively, the “Right of First Opportunity Space”), Sublandlord shall notify Subtenant of the Base Monthly Rent at which Sublandlord is willing to lease the offered Right of First Opportunity Space. If Subtenant elects,
by written notice to Sublandlord within five (5) business days after receipt of Sublandlord’s notice, to lease the offered Right of First Opportunity Space for such Base Monthly Rent, such Right of First Opportunity Space shall be leased
to Subtenant pursuant to this Sublease at the specified Base Monthly Rent commencing at such date as the parties shall mutually agree and in no event later than the date which is thirty (30) days from the date of Subtenant’s notice of
exercise hereunder, subject to Landlord’s approval. Sublandlord and Subtenant shall promptly execute an amendment to this Sublease reflecting the addition of such Right of First Opportunity Space to the Premises (and redefining the Building to
include the Park View Building, if applicable) and the Base Monthly Rent applicable thereto. If Subtenant does not timely exercise its rights hereunder, Sublandlord may lease the Right of First Opportunity Space to third parties for an amount equal
to or greater than the Base Monthly Rent specified in Sublandlord’s notice. In no event shall Subtenant have the right to lease less than all of the Right of First Opportunity Space offered by Sublandlord.

fittings, and equipment and all improvements to the Subleased Premises installed by Subtenant, or Sublandlord or Landlord in an amount not less than 90% of the full replacement cost thereof. Such policy shall also include business interruption
coverage, covering direct and indirect loss of Subtenant’s earnings attributable to Subtenant’s inability to use fully or obtain access to the Subleased Premises, in an amount as will properly reimburse Subtenant. Such policy shall name
Sublandlord, Landlord and any mortgagees of Landlord as insured parties, as their respective interests may appear. 
 (c) Workman’s
compensation and employer’s liability insurance (as required by state law). 
 (d) Pollution Liability Coverage Insurance in the amount

reducible in coverage except after 30 days’ prior written notice to Sublandlord and Landlord. Subtenant shall, within five (5) days after mutual execution of this Sublease and prior to any activity in the Sublease Premises by or on behalf

maintained by or for the benefit of Sublandlord and/or Landlord shall belong to and be paid over to Sublandlord and/or Landlord as appropriate. Any interest or right of Subtenant in any such proceeds shall be subject to Sublandlord’s and/or

 Subtenant agrees that
Sublandlord shall not be required to perform any of the covenants, agreements and/or obligations of Landlord under the Master Lease and, insofar as any of the covenants, agreements and obligations of Sublandlord hereunder are required to be

reason whatsoever, of the services or facilities that may be appurtenant to or supplied at the Building by Landlord or otherwise, including, without limitation, heat, air conditioning, ventilation, life-safety, water, electricity, elevator service
and cleaning service, if any; and no failure to furnish, or interruption of, any such services or facilities shall give rise to any (a) abatement, diminution or reduction of Subtenant’s obligations under this Sublease, or
(b) liability on the part of Sublandlord, except to the extent caused by Sublandlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord shall promptly take such action as 

  

 PAGE 12 

 
may reasonably be indicated, under the circumstances, to secure such performance upon Subtenant’s written request to Sublandlord to do so and shall
thereafter diligently prosecute such performance on the part of Landlord.

 (c) Subject to the limitations on
Sublandlord’s obligations set forth in Section 14.2 above, the terms, conditions and respective obligations of Sublandlord and Subtenant to each other under this Sublease shall be the terms and conditions of the Master Lease except for
those provisions of the Master Lease which are directly contradicted by this Sublease in which event the terms of this Sublease shall control over the Master Lease. Therefore, for the purposes of this Sublease, wherever in the Master Lease the word
“Landlord” is used it shall be deemed to mean Sublandlord and wherever in the Master Lease the word “Tenant” is used it shall be deemed to mean Subtenant. 
 (d) The time limits contained in the Master Lease for the giving of notices, making of demands or performing of any act, condition or covenant on the
part of the tenant thereunder, or for the exercise by the tenant thereunder of any right, remedy or option, are changed for the purposes of incorporation herein by reference by shortening the same in each instance by three (3) days, so that in
each instance Subtenant shall have three (3) days less time to observe or perform hereunder than Sublandlord has as the tenant under the Master Lease. The time limits contained in the Master Lease for the giving of notices, making of demands or
performing of any act, condition or covenant on the part of Landlord, or for the exercise by Landlord of any right, remedy or option, are changed for the purposes of incorporation herein by reference by lengthening the same in each instance by three
(3) days, so that in each instance Sublandlord shall have three (3) days more time to observe or perform hereunder than Landlord has under the Master Lease. 
 (e) Any non-liability, release, indemnity or hold harmless provision in the Master Lease for the benefit of Landlord, that is incorporated herein by reference, shall be deemed to inure to the benefit of Sublandlord,
Landlord, and any other person intended to be benefited by said provision, for the purpose of incorporation by reference in this Sublease. 
 (f) Any right of Landlord under the Master Lease of access or inspection and any right of Landlord under the Master Lease to do work in the Premises or in the Building and any right of Landlord under the Master Lease in respect of rules and
regulations, which is incorporated herein by reference, shall be deemed to inure to the benefit of Sublandlord, Landlord and any other person intended to be benefited by said provision, for the purpose of incorporation by reference in this Sublease.

 (h) In all provisions of the Master Lease requiring the tenant thereunder to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide Landlord with evidence, certificates,
or any other matter or thing, Subtenant shall be required to submit, exhibit to, supply or provide, as the case may be, the same to both Landlord and Sublandlord. 
 (i) Sublandlord shall have no obligation to restore or rebuild any portion of the Subleased Premises after any destruction or taking by eminent domain. 
 (j) Notwithstanding the terms this Section, Subtenant shall have no rights nor obligations under Sections 1, 1A, 2 through 6, the first sentence of
Section 13.1, Sections 14.4 and 36 and the Exhibits (other than Exhibit D) of the Master Lease. 
  

	 	14.4	Termination of Master Lease 

 If for any reason the
term of the Master Lease shall terminate prior to the scheduled expiration of the Term, this Sublease shall thereupon be terminated and Sublandlord shall not be liable to Subtenant by reason thereof unless (a) Subtenant shall not then be in
default hereunder beyond any applicable notice and cure period and (b) such termination shall have been effected because of the breach or default of Sublandlord under the Master Lease or by reason of the voluntary termination or surrender of
the Master Lease by Sublandlord. 
  

	15.	Assignment and Subletting 

 Subtenant shall not
assign this Sublease, or sublet the Subleased Premises or any part thereof, either by operation of law or otherwise, or permit any other party to occupy all or any part of the Subleased Premises, without first obtaining the written consent of
Sublandlord, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and the written consent of Landlord pursuant to the terms of the Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subtenant may assign this Sublease or sublet the Subleased
Premises to those entities described in Section 1A.5.1 of the Master Lease, in accordance with the terms of that Section 1A.5.1, provided, that, subject to Landlord’s prior written consent, Subtenant may satisfy the net worth
requirements stated in Section 1A.5.1 by providing a parental guaranty of the assignee’s obligations.

 Any commissions payable to Colliers

Corporate Real Estate as a result of execution of this Sublease: $174,096.00 due and payable upon mutual execution of this Sublease and $174,096.00 due and
payable on the Commencement Date. Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has not had dealings with any other real estate broker, agent or salesperson with respect to this Sublease that would cause the other party to have any
liability for any commissions or other compensation to such broker, agent or salesperson, and that no such broker, agent or salesperson has asserted any claim or right to any such commission or other compensation. Such representing party shall
defend and indemnify the other party and hold the other party harmless from and against any and all loss, cost, liability, damage and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) whatsoever that may arise out of the breach of such
representation and warranty. 
  

	17.	Indemnity 

  

	 	17.1	Indemnification 

 Subtenant shall indemnify, defend
and hold harmless (using legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Sublandlord) Sublandlord from and against all losses, costs, damages, expenses and liabilities, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, which
the Sublandlord may incur or pay out (including, without limitation, to Landlord) by reason of or in connection with (a) Subtenant’s occupation, use or improvement of the Premises, or that of its employees, contractors or agents; or
(b) any accidents, damages or injuries to persons or property occurring in, on or about the Subleased Premises (unless and to the extent that the same shall have been caused by Sublandlord’s gross negligence or wrongful act or the gross
negligence or wrongful act of Landlord), (c) any liabilities to or claims by third parties resulting from any breach or default hereunder by Subtenant, (d) the successful enforcement of the Sublandlord’s rights under this Section or
any other Section of this Sublease, or (e) any act, omission or negligence on the part of Subtenant and/or its officers, partners, employees, agents, customers and/or invitees, or any person claiming through or under Subtenant. Solely to give
full force and effect to Subtenant’s indemnity and not for the benefit of Subtenant’s employees or third parties, agents or contractors, Subtenant waives its immunity under Washington Industrial Insurance Act, RCW Title 51. This indemnity
shall survive the expiration or termination of the Term. 
  

	 	17.2	Limitation of Sublandlord’s Liability 

 Sublandlord shall not be liable for personal injury or property damage to Subtenant, its officers, agents, employees, invitees, guests, licensees or any other person in the Subleased Premises, except to the extent caused by
Sublandlord’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any property of Subtenant kept or stored in the Subleased Premises shall be kept or stored at the sole risk of Subtenant. 
  

 PAGE 15 

	 	17.3	Waiver of Subrogation 

 Anything in this Sublease
to the contrary notwithstanding, Subtenant and Sublandlord each waives its entire right of recovery, claims, actions, or causes of action against the other (and against Landlord, pursuant to the Master Lease) for loss or damage to the Subleased
Premises, Building(s) or surrounding property, or any personal property of such party therein that is caused by or incident to the perils covered by normal extended coverage clauses of standard fire insurance policies carried by the waiving party
and in force at the time of damage or loss. Subtenant and Sublandlord each waives any right of subrogation it may have against the other party to the extent of recovery under any such insurance, and shall cause each insurance policy obtained by it
to provide that the insurance company waives all right to recovery by way of subrogation against the other party in connection with any such loss or damage. If either Sublandlord or Subtenant is unable to obtain its insurer’s permission to
waive any claim against the other party, such party shall promptly notify the other party of such inability.

contingent upon Landlord, Sublandlord and Subtenant executing a consent substantially in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT C (“Landlord’s Consent”). Sublandlord shall solicit Landlord’s consent to this Sublease promptly
following the execution and delivery of this Sublease by Sublandlord and Subtenant. In the event Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease has not been obtained within ninety (90) days after mutual execution of this Sublease, then this
Sublease may be terminated by either party immediately upon written notice to the other delivered prior to Sublandlord obtaining Landlord’s Consent, and upon such termination neither party hereto shall have any further rights against or
obligations to the other party hereto. To the extent the terms of this Sublease conflict with the terms of the Landlord’s Consent, the Landlord’s Consent shall govern.
