2014 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
  

	Section 1.	Purpose. 

 This plan shall be known as the “AAC Holdings, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive

employees, and directors of, and consultants to, the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates; (ii) motivating such individuals by means of performance-related incentives to achieve long-range performance goals; (iii) enabling such
individuals to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company; (iv) encouraging ownership of stock in the Company by such individuals; and (v) linking such individuals’ compensation to the long-term interests
of the Company and its stockholders. With respect to any awards granted under the Plan that are intended to comply with the requirements of “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Plan shall be
interpreted in a manner consistent with such requirements.

promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 30% or more of either the then outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors;

shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting securities immediately prior to such acquisition in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such acquisition, of
the Company’s then outstanding common stock and then outstanding voting securities, as the case may be;

Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose

(i) designate Participants; 

(ii) determine eligibility for participation in the Plan and decide all questions concerning eligibility for and the

connection with a Change in Control and whether a leave constitutes a termination of employment; 
 (xiii) interpret

 3.2 Committee
Discretion Binding. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Award 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, including the Company and any Affiliate, any Participant and any holder or beneficiary of any Award. A Participant or other holder of an Award may contest a decision
or action by the Committee with respect to such Person or Award only on the grounds that such decision or action was arbitrary or capricious or was unlawful, and any review of such decision or action shall be limited to determining whether the
Committee’s decision or action was arbitrary or capricious or was unlawful.

Committee shall determine, to grant Awards to or to cancel, modify or waive rights with respect to, or to alter, discontinue, suspend or terminate Awards held by Participants who are not officers
or directors of the Company for purposes of Section 16 or who are otherwise not subject to such Section. 
  

	Section 4.	Shares Available For Awards. 

 4.1 Shares Available.  

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, a total of 1,000,000 Shares shall be authorized for grant under the Plan. Of
such Shares authorized, a total of 1,000,000 Shares may be granted pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. 
 (b) If
any Shares subject to an Award are forfeited, an Award expires or an Award is settled for cash (in whole or in part), the Shares subject to such Award shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration or cash settlement, again be available for
Awards under the Plan. In the event that withholding tax liabilities arising from an Award other than an Option or Stock Appreciation Right are satisfied by the tendering of Shares (either actually or by attestation) or by the withholding of Shares
by the Company, the Shares so tendered or withheld shall be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the following Shares shall not be added to the Shares authorized for
grant under paragraph (a) of this Section: (i) Shares tendered by the Participant or withheld by the Company in payment of the Option Price or to satisfy any tax withholding obligation with respect to an Option or SAR, and (ii) Shares
subject to a SAR that are not issued in connection with the stock settlement of the SAR on exercise thereof, and (iii) Shares reacquired by the Company on the open market or otherwise using cash proceeds from the exercise of Options. 

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 hereof, no Participant may receive Options
or SARs under the Plan in any calendar year that, taken together, relate to more than 200,000 Shares. 
 4.2 Adjustments. In the
event that any dividend (other than a normal, recurring dividend) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger,
consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction
or event affects the Shares, then the Committee shall in an equitable and proportionate manner as deemed appropriate by the Committee (and, as applicable, in such manner as is consistent with Sections 162(m), 422 and 409A of the Code and the
regulations thereunder) either: (i) adjust any or all of (1) the aggregate number and class of Shares or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted under
the Plan; (2) the number and class of Shares or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other property) subject to outstanding Awards under the Plan, provided that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole
number; (3) the grant or exercise price with respect to any Award under the Plan; and (4) the limits on the number of Shares or Awards that may be granted to Participants under the Plan in any calendar year; (ii) provide for an
equivalent award in respect of securities of the surviving entity of any merger, consolidation or other transaction or event having a similar effect; or (iii) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award. 

4.3 Substitute Awards; Future Pre-Existing Plans. Any Shares issued by the Company as Substitute Awards in connection with the
assumption or substitution of outstanding grants from any acquired corporation shall not reduce the Shares available for Awards under the Plan or count against any limits set forth in the Plan. 

4.4 Sources of Shares Deliverable Under Awards. Any Shares delivered pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of
authorized and unissued Shares, treasury shares or of issued Shares which have been reacquired by the Company. 

  
 7 

	Section 5.	Eligibility. 

 Any Employee, Director or Consultant shall be eligible to be designated a
Participant; provided, however, that Non-Employee Directors shall only be eligible to receive Awards granted consistent with Section 10; provided further, that any award to an Employee who is a prospective employee or officer shall be
conditioned upon such individual becoming an employee or officer of the Company or its Affiliate. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant. 

 

	Section 6.	Stock Options; Stock Appreciation Rights. 

 6.1 Grant. Subject to the provisions
of the Plan and other applicable legal requirements, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Participants to whom Options and SARs shall be granted, the number of Shares subject to each Award, the exercise price and the
conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option and SAR. An Option may be granted with or without a related SAR. A SAR may be granted with or without a related Option. The grant of an Option shall take place when the Committee
by resolution, written consent or other appropriate action determines to grant such Option for a particular number of Shares to a particular Participant at a particular Option Price. The Committee shall have the authority to grant Incentive Stock
Options and to grant Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the case of Incentive Stock Options, the terms and conditions of such grants shall be subject to and comply with Section 422 of the Code, as from time to time amended, and any regulations
implementing such statute. 
 6.2 Price. The Committee in its sole discretion shall establish the Option Price at the time each
Option is granted and the Grant Price at the time each SAR is granted. Except in the case of Substitute Awards and subject to the provisions of Section 6.6, the Option Price of an Option, and the Grant Price of an SAR, may not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of such Option or SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing and except as permitted by the provisions of Section 4.2 hereof, the Committee shall not
have the power to (i) amend the terms of previously granted Options or SARs to reduce the Option Price of such Options or the Grant Price of such SARs, (ii) cancel previously granted Options or SARs and grant substitute Options or SARs
with a lower Option Price or Grant Price than the cancelled Options or SARs, or (iii) cancel previously granted Options or SARs in exchange for a cash payment when the Option Price or Grant Price exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying
Shares (other than in connection with a Change in Control), in each case without the approval of the Company’s stockholders. 
 6.3
Term. Subject to the Committee’s authority under Section 3.1 and the provisions of Section 6.6, each Option and SAR and all rights and obligations thereunder shall expire on the date determined by the Committee
and specified in the Award Agreement. The Committee shall be under no duty to provide terms of like duration for Options or SARs granted under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the last sentence of Section 6.4(a),
no Option or SAR shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date such Option or SAR was granted. 
 6.4
Exercise. 
 (a) Each Option and SAR shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee
may, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement or thereafter. The Committee shall have full and complete authority to determine whether an Option or SAR 

  
 8 

 
will be exercisable in full at any time or from time to time during the term of the Option or SAR, or to provide for the exercise thereof in such installments, upon the occurrence of such events
and at such times during the term of the Option or SAR as the Committee may determine. An Award Agreement may provide that the period of time over which an Option or SAR, other than an Incentive Stock Option, may be exercised shall be automatically
extended if on the scheduled expiration of such Award, the Participant’s exercise of such Award would violate applicable securities law; provided, however, that during the extended exercise period the Option or SAR may only be exercised to the
extent the Option or SAR was exercisable in accordance with its terms immediately prior to such scheduled expiration date; provided further, however, that such extended exercise period shall end not later than thirty (30) days after the
exercise of such Option or SAR first would no longer violate such laws. 
 (b) The Committee may impose such conditions with respect to the
exercise of Options, including without limitation, any relating to the application of federal, state or foreign securities laws or the Code, as it may deem necessary or advisable. 

(c) An Option or SAR may be exercised in whole or in part at any time, with respect to whole Shares only, within the period permitted
thereunder for the exercise thereof, and shall be exercised by (i) written notice of intent to exercise the Option or SAR, in such form as the Committee may prescribe, delivered to the Company at its principal office or such other office as the
Committee may from time to time direct, and (ii) payment in full to the Company at the direction of the Committee of the amount of the Option Price for the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is then being exercised. 

(d) Payment of the Option Price shall be made (i) in cash or cash equivalents, (ii) at the discretion of the Committee, by
transfer, either actually or by attestation, to the Company of unencumbered Shares previously acquired by the Participant, valued at the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of exercise (or next succeeding trading date, if the date of
exercise is not a trading date), together with any applicable withholding taxes, such transfer to be upon such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee, (iii) at the discretion of the Committee, by a cashless (broker-assisted)
exercise that complies with applicable laws, (iv) at the discretion of the Committee, by withholding Shares (net-exercise) otherwise deliverable to the Participant pursuant to the Option having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of
exercise equal to the total Option Price or (v) any combination of (i) through (iv). Until the optionee has been issued the Shares subject to such exercise, he or she shall possess no rights as a stockholder with respect to such Shares.

 (e) At the Committee’s discretion, the amount payable to the Participant as a result of the exercise of a SAR may be settled in
cash, Shares or other property, or any combination thereof. A fractional Share shall not be deliverable upon the exercise of a SAR but a cash payment will be made in lieu thereof. 

(f) An Award Agreement may provide, or be amended to provide, that if on the last day of the term of an Option or SAR, the Fair Market Value
of one Share exceeds the Option Price or Grant Price of such Award, the Participant has not exercised the Option or SAR and the Option or SAR has not expired, the Option or SAR shall be deemed to have been exercised by the Participant on such day
with payment made by withholding Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option or SAR. In such event, the Company shall deliver to the Participant the number of Shares for which the Award was deemed exercised, less the
number of Shares required to be withheld for the payment of the total purchase price (in the case of an Option) and required withholding taxes. 

6.5 Termination of Employment or Service. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, if a Participant’s
employment or service is terminated, the outstanding Options and SARs held by such Participant shall terminate on the date of such termination of employment or service and 

  
 9 

 
be forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.5 to the contrary, the Committee may determine in its discretion that an Option or SAR may be exercised
following any such termination of employment, whether or not exercisable at the time of such termination of employment; provided, however, that in no event may an Option or SAR be exercised after the expiration date of such Option or SAR specified
in the applicable Award Agreement, except as provided in the last sentence of Section 6.4(a). 
 6.6 Ten Percent Stock Rule.
Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan, if at the time an Option is otherwise to be granted pursuant to the Plan, the optionee or rights holder owns directly or indirectly (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) Shares
of the Company possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of Stock of the Company or its parent or Subsidiary corporations (within the meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Code), then any
Incentive Stock Option to be granted to such optionee or rights holder pursuant to the Plan shall satisfy the requirement of Section 422(c)(5) of the Code, and the Option Price shall be not less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the
Fair Market Value of the Shares of the Company, and such Option by its terms shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date such Option is granted. 

 

	Section 7.	Restricted Shares And Restricted Share Units. 

 7.1 Grant. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and other applicable legal requirements, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to
determine the Participants to whom Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall be granted, the number of Restricted Shares and/or the number of Restricted Share Units to be granted to each Participant, the duration of the period during which,
and the conditions under which, the Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units may be forfeited to the Company, and the other terms and conditions of such Awards. The Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Awards shall be evidenced by Award
Agreements in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve, which agreements shall comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions provided hereunder and any additional terms and conditions established by the Committee that are
consistent with the terms of the Plan. 
 (b) Each Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Award made under the Plan shall be for such
number of Shares as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement containing the terms of such Restricted Share or Restricted Share Unit Award. Such agreement shall set forth a period of time during which the grantee must
remain in the continuous employment of the Company in order for the forfeiture and transfer restrictions to lapse. If the Committee so determines, the restrictions may lapse during such restricted period in installments with respect to specified
portions of the Shares covered by the Restricted Share or Restricted Share Unit Award. The Award Agreement may also, in the discretion of the Committee, set forth performance or other conditions that will subject the Shares to forfeiture and
transfer restrictions. The Committee may, at its discretion, waive all or any part of the restrictions applicable to any or all outstanding Restricted Share and Restricted Share Unit Awards. 

7.2 Dividends and Other Distributions. 

(a) Prior to the lapse of any applicable transfer restrictions, Participants holding Restricted Shares shall be credited with any dividends
payable in cash, Shares or other property paid with respect to such Restricted Shares while they are so held, unless determined otherwise by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee may apply any restrictions to such
dividends that the Committee deems appropriate. Except as set forth in the Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event (a) of any adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, or (b) any cash, Shares or
other property is paid by the Company as a dividend on Restricted Shares, such cash, Shares or other property payable to a Participant on such Restricted Shares shall be subject to the same terms and conditions, including any transfer restrictions,
as relate to the original Restricted Shares and shall be paid to the Participant when and if the applicable Restricted Shares vest. 

  
 10 

 (b) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, Participants holding Restricted
Share Units shall not be credited with any dividends paid with respect to the underlying Shares of such Restricted Share Units. If the applicable Award Agreement specifies that a Participant will be entitled to receive dividend equivalent rights,
(i) the amount of any such dividend equivalent right shall equal the amount that would be payable to the Participant as a stockholder in respect of a number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Share Units then credited to the
Participant, (ii) any such dividend equivalent right shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s payment practices as may be established from time to time and as of the date on which such dividend would have been payable in respect of
outstanding Shares, and (iii) unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, dividend equivalents will not be paid in respect of Restricted Share Units that are not yet vested unless and until such Restricted Share Units vest.

 7.3 Transfer Restrictions on Restricted Shares. At the time of a Restricted Share Award, a certificate representing the number of
Shares awarded thereunder shall be registered in the name of the grantee. Such certificate shall be held by the Company or any custodian appointed by the Company for the account of the grantee subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, and
shall bear such a legend setting forth the restrictions imposed thereon as the Committee, in its discretion, may determine. Alternatively, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that a Participant’s ownership of Restricted Shares prior
to the lapse of any transfer restrictions or any other applicable restrictions shall, in lieu of such certificates, be evidenced by a “book entry” (i.e., a computerized or manual entry) in the records of the Company or its
designated agent in the name of the Participant who has received such Award, and confirmation and account statements sent to the Participant with respect to such book-entry Shares may bear the restrictive legend referenced in the preceding sentence.
Such records of the Company or such agent shall, absent manifest error, be binding on all Participants who receive Restricted Share Awards evidenced in such manner. The holding of Restricted Shares by the Company or such an escrow holder, or the use
of book entries to evidence the ownership of Restricted Shares, in accordance with this Section 7.3, shall not affect the rights of Participants as owners of the Restricted Shares awarded to them, nor affect the restrictions applicable
to such shares under the Award Agreement or the Plan, including the transfer restrictions. 
 7.4 Other Rights of Restricted
Stockholders. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, the grantee shall have all other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Restricted Shares, including the right to vote such Shares, subject to the following
restrictions: (i) the grantee shall not be entitled to delivery of the stock certificate until the expiration of the restricted period and the fulfillment of any other restrictive conditions set forth in the Award Agreement with respect to such
Shares; (ii) none of the Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during such restricted period or until after the fulfillment of any such other restrictive conditions; and
(iii) except as otherwise determined by the Committee at or after grant, all of the Shares (including any dividends accrued and held thereon) shall be forfeited and all rights of the grantee to such Shares shall terminate, without further
obligation on the part of the Company, unless the grantee remains in the continuous employment of the Company for the entire restricted period in relation to which such Shares were granted and unless any other restrictive conditions relating to the
Restricted Share Award are met. 
 7.5 Termination of Restrictions on Restricted Shares. At the end of the restricted period and
provided that any other restrictive conditions of the Restricted Share Award are met, or at such earlier time as otherwise determined by the Committee, all restrictions set forth in the Award Agreement relating to the Restricted Share Award or in
the Plan shall lapse as to the restricted Shares subject thereto, and a stock certificate for the appropriate number of Shares, free of the restrictions and restricted stock legend, shall be delivered to the Participant or the Participant’s
beneficiary or estate, as the case may be (or, 

  
 11 

 
in the case of book-entry Shares, such restrictions and restricted stock legend shall be removed from the confirmation and account statements delivered to the Participant or the
Participant’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be, in book-entry form) and any dividends or dividend equivalents accrued thereon shall be paid. 

7.6 Payment of Restricted Share Units. Each Restricted Share Unit shall have a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share.
Restricted Share Units shall be paid in cash, Shares, other securities or other property, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, upon the lapse of the restrictions applicable thereto, or otherwise in accordance with the applicable
Award Agreement. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at or after grant, Restricted Share Units may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of, and all Restricted Share Units (and any
dividend equivalents associated therewith) and all rights of the grantee thereto shall terminate, without further obligation on the part of the Company, unless the grantee remains in continuous employment of the Company for the entire restricted
period in relation to which such Restricted Share Units were granted and unless any other restrictive conditions relating to the Restricted Share Unit Award are met. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, a
Participant shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to Restricted Share Units. 
 7.7 Termination of Employment or Service.
Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment or service is terminated, the Participant’s rights in unvested Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units (and any accrued dividends or
dividend equivalent rights associated therewith) then subject to restrictive conditions shall lapse, and such Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall be forfeited and surrendered to the Company without consideration. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section 7.7 to the contrary, the Committee may provide in its discretion that a Participant’s rights in unvested Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall not lapse in the event of certain
terminations of employment or service, such as termination by the Company without cause, by a Participant voluntarily, or by reason or death, disability or retirement (each, as may be defined by the Committee from time to time or set forth in an
Award Agreement). 
  

	Section 8.	Performance Awards. 

 8.1 Grant. The Committee shall have sole and complete
authority to determine the Participants who shall receive a Performance Award, which shall consist of a right that is (i) denominated in cash, Shares or other property, (ii) valued, as determined by the Committee, in accordance with the
achievement of such performance goals during such performance periods as the Committee shall establish, and (iii) payable at such time and in such form as the Committee shall determine. 

8.2 Terms and Conditions. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the
performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any Performance Award and the amount and kind of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award, and, subject
to Section 11 of the Plan, may amend specific provisions of the Performance Award; provided, however, that such amendment may not adversely affect existing Performance Awards made within a performance period commencing prior to implementation
of the amendment. 
 8.3 Dividends and Other Distributions. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, dividends or
dividend equivalents on Performance Awards denominated in Shares may not be paid to a Participant (but they may be accumulated for eventual payment) until such time as the Committee determines that the performance criteria underlying such
Performance Awards have been satisfied. 

  
 12 

 8.4 Payment of Performance Awards. An Award Agreement may provide that Performance Awards
may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the close of the performance period or, in accordance with the procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis, subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and to the extent permissible under Section 162(m) (if applicable), the Committee may in its discretion, waive any performance goals and/or other terms and conditions relating to a Performance Award. A
Participant’s rights to any Performance Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered or disposed of in any manner, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and/or except as the
Committee may determine at or after grant. 
 8.5 Termination of Employment or Service. Except as otherwise provided in the
applicable Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment or service is terminated prior to the close of the applicable performance period, the Participant’s rights in unvested Performance Awards then subject to restrictive conditions
shall lapse, and such Performance Awards shall be forfeited and surrendered to the Company without consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.5 to the contrary, the Committee may provide in its discretion
that a Participant’s rights in unvested Performance Awards shall not lapse in the event of certain terminations of employment or service, such as termination by the Company without cause, by a Participant voluntarily, or by reason of death,
disability or retirement (each, as may be defined by the Committee from time to time or set forth in an Award Agreement). 
 8.6
Forfeiture/Recapture. The Committee may require, in an Award Agreement issued in respect of a Performance Award or as a condition to the payout of a Performance Award, that the Participant remain liable to forfeit some or all of the
Performance Award or to pay back some or all of any cash payment or the gains realized by the Participant in connection with his sale of Shares issued in respect of vesting of Performance Awards, if the Company or a Subsidiary subsequently corrects
or restates the results that formed the basis for the Performance Award to have been paid out or vested. The Committee shall have the authority in each instance to determine whether to impose such requirements, the parameters of any such
requirements and whether or not to require forfeiture or repayment by any particular Participant. 
  

	Section 9.	Other Stock-Based Awards. 

 The Committee shall have the authority to determine the
Participants who shall receive an Other Stock-Based Award, which shall consist of any right that is (i) not an Award described in Sections 6, 7, or 8 above and (ii) an Award of Shares or an Award denominated or
payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, Shares or other property (including, without limitation, securities convertible into Shares), as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes
of the Plan. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Other Stock-Based Award. 
  

	Section 10.	Non-Employee Director Awards. 

 The Board may provide that all or a portion of a
Non-Employee Director’s annual retainer, meeting fees and/or other awards or compensation as determined by the Board, be payable (either automatically or at the election of a Non-Employee Director) in the form of Non-Qualified Stock Options,
Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and/or Other Stock-Based Awards under the Plan, including unrestricted Shares. The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of any such Awards, including the terms and conditions which shall apply upon
a termination of the Non-Employee Director’s service as a member of the Board, and shall have full power and authority in its discretion to administer such Awards, subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law. Subject to applicable legal
requirements, the Board may also grant Awards to Non-Employee Directors pursuant to the terms of the Plan, including any Award described in Sections 6, 7 or 9 above. 

  
 13 

	Section 11.	Provisions Applicable To Covered Officers And Performance Awards. 

 11.1 Covered
Officers. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, unless the Committee determines that a Performance Award to be granted to a Covered Officer should not qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of
Section 162(m), Performance Awards granted to Covered Officers shall be subject to the terms and provisions of this Section 11. Accordingly, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if any provision of the Plan or any Award
Agreement relating to such an Award does not comply or is inconsistent with Section 162(m), such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements, and no provision shall be deemed to confer
upon the Committee discretion to increase the amount of compensation otherwise payable to a Covered Officer in connection with any such Award upon the attainment of the performance criteria established by the Committee. 

11.2 Performance Goals. The Committee may grant Performance Awards to Covered Officers based solely upon the attainment of performance
targets related to one or more performance goals selected by the Committee from among the goals specified below. For the purposes of this Section 11, performance goals shall be limited to one or more of the following Company, Subsidiary,
operating unit, business segment or division financial performance measures: 
  

	 	(a)	total sales or revenues; 

  

	 	(b)	sales or revenue per employee; 

  

	 	(c)	earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization;

	 	(e)	operating margins, gross margins or cash margin; 

  

	 	(f)	operating efficiencies; 

  

	 	(g)	return on equity, assets (or net assets), capital, capital employed or investment; 

  

	 	(h)	net income (before or after taxes);

	 	(j)	earnings (gross, net, pre-tax, after tax or per share); 

  

	 	(k)	utilization; 

  

	 	(l)	improvement in or attainment of expense levels or working capital levels, including cash, inventory and accounts receivable; 

  
 14 

	 	(m)	gross or net profit margins; 

  

	 	(n)	stock price or total stockholder return; 

  

	 	(o)	cash flow or cash flow per Share (before or after dividends); 

  

	 	(p)	appreciation in and/or maintenance of the price of Shares or other publicly-traded securities of the Company; 

  

	 	(q)	client growth or sales; 

  

	 	(r)	debt reduction;

	 	(u)	financing and other capital-raising transactions; 

  

	 	(v)	revenue; 

  

	 	(w)	market share; 

  

	 	(x)	strategic business objectives, consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified cost targets, business expansion goals or goals relating to acquisitions or divestitures; or 

 

	 	(y)	any combination thereof. 

 Each goal may be expressed on an absolute and/or relative basis, may be based on or
otherwise employ comparisons based on internal targets, the past performance of the Company or any Subsidiary, operating unit, business segment or division of the Company and/or the past or current performance of other companies, and in the case of
earnings-based measures, may use or employ comparisons relating to capital, stockholders’ equity and/or Shares outstanding, or to assets or net assets. The Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under criteria set
forth in this Section 11.2 to exclude any of the following events that occurs during a performance period: (i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in tax law,
accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs, (v) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company or not within the
reasonable control of the Company’s management and (vi) any extraordinary non-recurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results
of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to stockholders for the applicable year; provided, that the Committee must commit to make any such adjustments, and shall specify such adjustments, within the time for prescribing
performance targets generally as described in Section 11.5. 
 11.3 Maximum Limits. With respect to any Covered Officer,
the maximum annual number of Shares in respect of which all Performance Awards may be granted under Section 8 of the Plan is 150,000 (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2) and the maximum amount of all Performance
Awards that are settled in cash and that may be granted under Section 8 of the Plan in any year is $3,000,000. 

  
 15 

 11.4 Negative Discretion Allowed. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan (other than
Article 13), with respect to any Restricted Share Award, Restricted Share Unit Award, Performance Award or Other Share-Based Award that is subject to this Section 11, the Committee may adjust downwards, but not upwards, the amount
payable pursuant to such Award to a Covered Officer, and the Committee may not waive the achievement of the applicable performance goals, except in the case of the death or disability of the Participant. 

11.5 Section 162(m) Administration. To the extent necessary to comply with Section 162(m), with respect to grants of
Performance Awards to a Covered Officer, no later than 90 days following the commencement of each performance period (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing,
(1) select the performance goal or goals applicable to the performance period, (2) establish the various targets and bonus amounts which may be earned for such performance period, and (3) specify the relationship between performance
goals and targets and the amounts to be earned by each Covered Officer for such performance period. Following the completion of each performance period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable performance targets have been
achieved and the amounts, if any, payable to Covered Officers for such performance period. In determining the amount earned by a Covered Officer for a given performance period, subject to any applicable Award Agreement, the Committee shall have the
right to reduce (but not increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant in its sole discretion to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for
the performance period. 
  

	Section 12.	Termination of Employment or Service. 

 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein, the Committee shall have the full power and authority to determine the terms and conditions that shall apply to any Award upon a termination of employment or service with the Company or its Affiliates, including a termination by the Company
with or without cause, by a Participant voluntarily, or by reason of death, disability or retirement (each, as may be defined by the Committee from time to time or set forth in an Award Agreement), and may provide such terms and conditions in the
Award Agreement or in such rules and regulations as it may prescribe. 
  

	Section 13.	Change In Control. 

 13.1 Impact on Certain Awards. Unless otherwise provided in
an applicable Award Agreement or by the Committee at any time, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control shall be cancelled and terminated without
payment if the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the date of the Change in Control is less than the per Share Exercise Price of such Award. Award Agreements may provide (at or after grant) that, in the event of a Change in Control, all
Performance Awards shall be considered to be earned and payable (in full or pro rata based on the target value of the Award and the portion of Performance Period completed as of the date of the Change in Control), and any limitations or other
restrictions shall lapse and such Performance Awards shall be immediately settled or distributed. 
 13.2 Assumption or Substitution of
Certain Awards. (a) Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or by the Committee at any time, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company in which the successor company assumes or substitutes for an Option, SAR, Restricted
Share Award, Restricted Share Unit, Performance Award or Other Stock-Based Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and continues the Award), if a Participant’s employment with such successor company (or the Company) or
a subsidiary thereof terminates within 24 months following such Change in Control (or such other period set forth in the Award Agreement): (i) Options and SARs outstanding as of the date of such termination of employment will immediately vest,
become fully exercisable, and may thereafter be 

  
 16 

 
exercised for 24 months (or the period of time set forth in the Award Agreement), (ii) restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to Restricted Shares and Restricted Share
Units outstanding as of the date of such termination of employment shall lapse and the Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested, and (iii) the
restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to any Other Stock-Based Awards or any other Awards (including the settlement at target level of any Performance Awards) shall lapse, and such Awards shall become free of all restrictions,
limitations and conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant. For the purposes of this Section 13.2, an Option, SAR, Restricted Share Award, Restricted Share Unit, Performance Award or
Other Stock-Based Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if following the Change in Control the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Option, SAR, Restricted Share Award, Restricted Share Unit,
Performance Award or Other Stock-Based Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control by holders of Shares for
each Share held on the effective date of such transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration
received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor company, the Committee may, with the consent of the successor company, provide that the consideration to be received upon the exercise or
vesting of an Option, SAR, Restricted Share Award, Restricted Share Unit or Other Stock-Based Award, for each Share subject thereto, will be solely common stock of the successor company substantially equal in fair market value to the per Share
consideration received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting a Change in Control. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee in its discretion and its determination shall be
conclusive and binding. 
 (b) Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or by the Committee at any time, in the event of a Change in
Control of the Company to the extent the successor company does not assume or substitute for an Option, SAR, Restricted Share Award, Restricted Share Unit or Other Stock-Based Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and
does not continue the Award): (i) those Options and SARs outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control that are not assumed or substituted for (or continued) shall immediately vest and become fully exercisable, (ii) restrictions,
limitations and other conditions applicable to Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units that are not assumed or substituted for (or continued) shall lapse and the Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units shall become free of all
restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested, and (iii) the restrictions, other limitations and other conditions applicable to any Other Stock-Based Awards or any other Awards (including the settlement at target level of
Performance Awards) that are not assumed or substituted for (or continued) shall lapse, and such Other Stock-Based Awards or such other Awards shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested and transferable
to the full extent of the original grant. 
 (c) The Committee, in its discretion, may determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change in
Control of the Company, each Option and SAR outstanding shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the Participant, and/or that each Participant shall receive, with respect to each Share subject to such Option or SAR, an
amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such Share immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control over the Option Price or Grant Price of such Option and/or SAR; such amount to be payable in cash, in one or more kinds
of stock or property (including the stock or property, if any, payable in the transaction) or in a combination thereof, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine. The Committee, in its discretion, may determine that, upon the occurrence
of a Change in Control of the Company, any other outstanding Award may be settled in cash. 
 13.3 No Implied Rights; Other
Limitations. No Participant shall have any right to prevent the consummation of any Change in Control or any of the acts described in Section 4.2 affecting the number of Shares available to, or other entitlement of, such Participant
under the Plan or such Participant’s Award. Any actions or determinations of the Committee under this Section 13 need not be uniform as to all outstanding Awards, nor treat all Participants identically. 

  
 17 

	Section 14.	Amendment And Termination. 

 14.1 Amendments to the Plan. Except as otherwise
provided in 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
stockholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement for which or with which the Board deems it necessary or desirable to comply, including the rules and regulations of the principal securities exchange
on which Shares are traded. 
 14.2 Amendments to Awards. Subject to the restrictions and shareholder approval requirements set forth
in Section 6.2 and Section 14.1, the Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted, 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 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. 
 14.3 Adjustments of
Awards upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. Subject to Section 11.5, the Committee is hereby authorized to make equitable and proportionate adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria
included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (and shall make such adjustments for events described in Section 4.2 hereof) affecting the Company or any Affiliate, or the financial statements of the Company or any
Affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles. 
  

	Section 15.	General Provisions. 

 15.1 Limited Transferability of Awards. Subject to this
Section 15.1, 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 and its Affiliates; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. 

(a) 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: 

 

	 	(i)	any person who is a “family member” of the Participant, as such term is used in the instructions to Form S-8 (collectively, the “Immediate Family Members”); 

 

	 	(ii)	a trust solely for the benefit of the Participant and his or her Immediate Family Members; 

  

	 	(iii)	a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or shareholders are persons described in (i) or (ii) above; or 

 

	 	(iv)	any other transferee as may be approved by the Committee in its sole discretion or as provided in the applicable Award agreement; 

  
 18 

 (each transferee described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) 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 is permissible and would comply with the requirements of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement. 
 (b) The terms of any
Award transferred in accordance with the immediately preceding Section 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 (i) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to transfer any Award, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) 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 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, (iii) 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 (iv) 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.

 15.2 Dividend Equivalents. Subject to any limitations set forth in the Plan, in the sole and complete discretion of the Committee,
an Award may provide the Participant with dividends or dividend equivalents, payable in cash, Shares, other securities or other property on a current or deferred basis. All dividend or dividend equivalents which are not paid currently may, at the
Committee’s discretion, accrue interest, be reinvested into additional Shares, or, in the case of dividends or dividend equivalents credited in connection with Performance Awards, be credited as additional Performance Awards and paid to the
Participant if and when, and to the extent that, payment is made pursuant to such Award. The total number of Shares available for grant under Section 4 shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend equivalents that are
reinvested into additional Shares or credited as Performance Awards. 
 15.3 No Rights to Awards. No Person shall have any claim to
be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant. 

15.4 Share Certificates. All certificates for Shares or other securities of the Company or any Affiliate (or, if any such Shares or
securities are in book-entry form, such book-entry balances and confirmation and account statements with respect thereto) delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other
restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any state securities commission or regulatory authority, any stock exchange or other market upon which such Shares or
other securities are then listed, and any applicable Federal or state laws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates (or confirmation and account statements for book-entry Shares) to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions. 

  
 19 

 15.5 Tax Withholding. A Participant may 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 Award, from any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under the Plan, or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the
amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property) of any applicable withholding or other tax-related obligations in respect of an Award, its exercise or any other transaction involving an Award, 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 Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. 

15.6 Withholding or Tendering Shares. Without limiting the generality of Section 15.5, the Committee may in its discretion
permit a Participant to satisfy or arrange to satisfy, in whole or in part, the tax obligations incident to an Award by: (a) electing to have the Company withhold Shares or other property otherwise deliverable to such Participant pursuant to
his or her Award (provided, however, that the amount of any Shares so withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy required federal, state local and foreign withholding obligations using the minimum statutory withholding rates for
federal, state, local and/or foreign tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to supplemental taxable income) and/or (b) tendering to the Company Shares owned by such Participant (or by such Participant and his or her spouse
jointly) and purchased or held for the requisite period of time as may be required to avoid the Company’s or the Affiliates’ incurring an adverse accounting charge, based, in each case, on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the payment
date as determined by the Committee. All such elections shall be irrevocable, made in writing, signed by the Participant, and shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. 

15.7 Award Agreements. Each Award hereunder shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall be delivered to the Participant and may
specify the terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Plan and any Award Agreement, the terms of the Plan shall prevail. The Committee shall, subject to applicable law,
determine the date an Award is deemed to be granted. The Committee or, except to the extent prohibited under applicable law, its delegate(s) may establish the terms of agreements or other documents evidencing Awards under this Plan and may, but need
not, require as a condition to any such agreement’s or document’s effectiveness that such agreement or document be executed by the Participant, including by electronic signature or other electronic indication of acceptance, and that such
Participant agree to such further terms and conditions as specified in such agreement or document. The grant of an Award under this Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such
conditions, as are specified in this Plan as being applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly set forth in the agreement or other document evidencing such Award. 

15.8 No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or any Affiliate from
adopting or continuing in effect other compensation arrangements, which may, but need not, provide for the grant of Options, Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units, Other Stock-Based Awards or other types of Awards provided for hereunder. 

15.9 No Right to Employment; Claims to Awards. The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be
retained in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or an Affiliate may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or service, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly
provided in an Award Agreement. No Employee, Director or Consultant shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Employees, Directors or Consultants under the Plan. 

  
 20 

 15.10 No Rights as Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the applicable
Award Agreement, no Participant or holder or beneficiary of any Award shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under the Plan until such person has become a holder of such Shares. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in connection with each grant of Restricted Shares hereunder, the applicable Award Agreement shall specify if and to what extent the Participant shall not be entitled to the rights of a stockholder in respect of such Restricted Shares.

 15.11 Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreements
thereunder, it is intended that the provisions of the Plan and such Award Agreements comply with Section 409A of the Code, and that no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan, or any Award
Agreement interpreted, in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a Participant. Any provision of this Plan that would cause the grant of an Award or the payment, settlement or
deferral thereof to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall be amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code on a timely basis, which may be made on a retroactive basis, in accordance with regulations and other guidance issued
under Section 409A of the Code. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Board or Committee that, as a result of Section 409A of the Code, payments in respect of any Award under the Plan may not be made at the time contemplated
by the terms of the Plan or the relevant Award agreement, as the case may be, without causing the Participant holding such Award to be subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code, the Company will make such payment on the first day that
would not result in the Participant incurring any tax liability under Section 409A of the Code; which, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, shall be the first day following the
six-month period beginning on the date of Participant’s termination of employment. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or other document governing the issuance of such Award, payment of any Performance Award intended to qualify as a
“short term deferral” within the meaning of Section 1.409A-1(b)(4)(i) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations shall be made between the first day following the close of the applicable Performance Period and the last day of the
“applicable 2 1⁄2 month period” as defined therein. Although the Company intends to administer the Plan so that Awards will be exempt from, or will
comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Company does not warrant that any Award under the Plan will qualify for favorable tax treatment under Section 409A of the Code or any other provision of federal, state, local
or foreign law. The Company shall not be liable to any Participant for any tax, interest, or penalties that Participant might owe as a result of the grant, holding, vesting, exercise, or payment of any Award under the Plan. 

15.12 Cancellation of Award; Forfeiture of Gain. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Award Agreement may
provide that the Award shall be canceled if the Participant, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition,
non-solicitation, non-disclosure or similar covenant or agreement (including any such covenant in an Award Agreement) or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary (including
conduct contributing to any financial restatements or financial irregularities), as determined by the Committee in its discretion. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that if within the time period specified in the Agreement the
Participant engages in an activity referred to or prohibited in the preceding sentence, the Participant will forfeit all or any portion of any gain realized on the vesting or exercise of the Award and must repay such gain to the Company. 

15.13 Governing Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and any Award
Agreement shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles. 

  
 21 

 15.14 Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award is, or becomes, or is deemed
to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person 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 stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award
and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 
 15.15 Other Laws. The Committee may refuse
to issue or transfer any Shares or other consideration under an Award if, acting in its sole discretion, it determines that the issuance or transfer of such Shares or such other consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation (including
applicable non-U.S. laws or regulations) or entitle the Company to recover the same under Exchange Act Section 16(b), and any payment tendered to the Company by a Participant, other holder or beneficiary in connection with the exercise of such
Award shall be promptly refunded to the relevant Participant, holder or beneficiary. 
 15.16 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 and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to
receive payments from the Company or any Affiliate pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate. 

15.17 No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award, and the Committee
shall determine whether cash, other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. 

15.18 Headings. Headings are given to the sections and subsections of the Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such
headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of the Plan or any provision thereof. 
  

	Section 16.	Term Of The Plan. 

 16.1 Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective as of the
date adopted by the Board, provided that no Incentive Stock Options shall be granted hereunder unless the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders within twelve months of any such grant. 

16.2 Expiration Date. No new Awards shall be granted under the Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Unless otherwise
expressly provided in the Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award granted hereunder may, and the authority of the Board or the Committee to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award or to waive any conditions
or rights under any such Award shall, continue after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.

 Exhibit 10.5 

AMERICAN ADDICTION CENTERS, INC. 

2014 CASH INCENTIVE PLAN 

Section 1. Purpose and Administration. 

The American Addiction Centers, Inc. 2014 Cash Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to motivate eligible employees of
American Addiction Centers, Inc. and its subsidiaries (together, the “Company”) to achieve specified performance goals by means of cash-based awards. All designations, determinations, interpretations and other decisions under or
with respect to the Plan or any award thereunder (i) shall be within the sole discretion of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AAC Holdings, Inc., as successor with respect to the Plan as described below, (ii) may be
made at any time and (iii) shall be final, conclusive and binding upon all persons. Such decisions need not be uniform and may be made selectively among Plan participants, whether or not such participants are similarly situated. The material
terms of this Plan were previously approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, and as a result of the private share exchange between AAC Holdings, Inc. and certain stockholders of the Company in April 2014, the Board has assumed the
administration of this Plan. 
 Section 2. Eligibility. 

The participants of the Plan shall include only those employees of the Company or its subsidiaries who are listed on Schedule A hereto
(each, a “Participant”). Each of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; President and Chief Financial Officer is referred to herein as a “Senior Officer Participant.” Each of the Chief Operating Officer; General
Counsel and Secretary; Senior Vice President, Business Development; Vice President, Marketing and Chief Accounting Officer is referred to herein as an “Officer Participant.” 

Section 3. Bonus Award Calculation and Payment. 

Senior Officer Participants. Bonus awards payable pursuant to this Plan (each, an “Award”) with respect to each Senior
Officer Participant shall be calculated based on the Company’s achievement of adjusted EBITDA (“AEBITDA”) goals during each quarter of the 2014 fiscal year (each, a “Fiscal Quarter”) and the 2014 fiscal year as
a whole (the “Fiscal Year”, and each of the foregoing, a “Performance Period”). In order for a Senior Officer Participant to qualify for an Award with respect to any Fiscal Quarter, the Company must meet the AEBITDA
Target (each, a “Performance Goal”) for such Fiscal Quarter. If the Performance Goal for a Fiscal Quarter is met, the Senior Officer Participant will be entitled to an Award equal to 25% of the Target Bonus Amount set forth in
Schedule B for such Senior Officer Participant. If the Performance Goal for a Fiscal Quarter is not met, the Senior Officer Participant will not be entitled to an Award for such Fiscal Quarter (except to the extent the Performance Goal for
the Fiscal Year is subsequently met). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company would have achieved the Performance Goal for a Performance Period but for the expense of bonus amounts payable pursuant to the Plan, the Target Bonus
payable for such period shall be proportionately reduced to the level at which the AEBITDA for the Performance Period, including the reduced bonus amounts, equals the Performance Goal with respect to such period. 

For purposes of this Plan, “AEBITDA” means Consolidated Net Income, plus, without duplication, to the extent reducing Consolidated
Net Income, (i) interest expense, (ii) depreciation expense, (iii) amortization expense, (iv) tax expense, (v) non-cash stock compensation, (vi) one-time legal and restructuring costs incurred in 2014 connection with
the AAC Equity Transactions, the BHR Preferred Equity Transactions, the Initial Reorganization Transactions and the Holdings IPO in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000, (vii) one-time legal, accounting and other transaction costs incurred in
connection with a Permitted Acquisition in 2014 or in any subsequent fiscal year in an aggregate amount not to exceed 

 
$200,000 in any fiscal year, (viii) one-time settlement costs paid on or about April 9, 2014, in connection with certain wage and settlement charges in California in an amount not to
exceed $2,500,000 and (ix) to the extent approved by the Agent in writing , other one-time and non-recurring charges. Capitalized terms used in the preceding sentence but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Second
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among AAC Holdings, Inc., American Addiction Centers, Inc., the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and
collateral agent for the Lenders, dated as of April 15, 2014. 
 If the Company achieves the Performance Goal with respect to the 2014
Fiscal Year, a Senior Officer Participant shall be entitled to an Award with respect to such Fiscal Year according to the following formula: (a) the percentage of the AEBITDA Target that actual AEBITDA for the 2014 Fiscal Year represents,
multiplied by (b) the Senior Officer Participant’s Target Bonus Amount set forth in Schedule B, with the product of (a) and (b) reduced (but not below zero) by (c) payments made during the Fiscal Year
with respect to the achievement of the Performance Goal with respect to each Fiscal Quarter; provided, that the maximum Award with respect to the Fiscal Year that a Senior Officer Participant may receive shall be the “Maximum Bonus
Amount” set forth for the Senior Officer Participant on Schedule B. The Performance Goal for each Performance Period of the Company shall be as set by the Board. 

The amount payable under this Plan with respect to the Senior Officer Participants shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion
based on whether and to what extent the Performance Goals have been met. The Board in its sole discretion may also award the maximum bonus to any Senior Officer Participant as it determines appropriate, including as a result of the completion of an
underwritten initial public offering of its stock during the Fiscal Year. 
 Officer Participants. Awards with respect to each
Officer Participant shall be based on such Officer Participant’s achievement of individual goals during each Performance Period as established by the Chief Executive Officer in his sole discretion. In order for an Officer Participant to qualify
for an Award with respect to any Fiscal Quarter, the Officer Participant must meet his or her individual goals as established by the Chief Executive Officer for such Fiscal Quarter. If the individual goals of such Officer Participant for a Fiscal
Quarter are met, the Officer Participant will be entitled to an Award in an amount up to 25% of the target bonus amount as established by the Chief Executive Officer acting pursuant to delegated authority of the Board. 

Payment of Participant Awards. Awards pursuant to the Plan will be paid solely in cash, and such amounts (if any) shall be paid as soon
as practicable following the close of each Fiscal Quarter, and in all events by March 15, 2015. Except as the Board may otherwise determine in its sole and absolute discretion (i) termination of the Participant’s employment prior to
January 1, 2015 will result in the forfeiture of any further amounts that would otherwise have been payable to a Participant following the termination (inclusive of any quarterly payment not yet distributed to a Participant as of the date of
termination) and (ii) termination of the Participant’s employment on or after January 1, 2015 will not result in the forfeiture of any further amounts that would otherwise have been payable to a Participant following the termination
pursuant to the Plan. 
 This Program is not a “qualified” plan for federal income tax purposes, and any payments are subject to
applicable tax withholding requirements. 

  
 2 

 Section 4. Adjustments for Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. 

The Board may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under the Performance Goals to exclude any of the following events that occur
during 2014: (i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, including expenses related thereto, (iii) the effect of changes in tax law, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting
reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs, (v) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company or not within the reasonable control of the Company’s management and
(vi) direct or indirect acquisitions and dispositions of facilities during the Fiscal Year. 
 Section 5. General Provisions. 

No Rights to Awards. No person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation for
uniformity of treatment among Participants. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each Participant. The Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan at any time in the Company’s sole discretion. 

No Right to Employment. Participation in the plan and the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the
right to be retained in the employ or service of the Company or any affiliate. 
 Compliance with Section 409A of the
Code. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, it is intended that the provisions of the Plan be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and
that no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a Participant. Any provision of this
Plan that would cause the grant of an award or the payment thereof to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall be amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code on a timely basis, which may be made on a retroactive basis, in
accordance with regulations and other guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Board that, as a result of Section 409A of the Code, payments in respect of any award under the Plan
may not be made at the time contemplated by the terms of the Plan, as the case may be, without causing the Participant to be subject to taxation under Section 409A of the Code, the Company will make such payment on the first day that would not
result in the Participant incurring any tax liability under Section 409A of the Code; which, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, shall be the first day following the six-month period
beginning on the date of Participant’s termination of employment. 
 Interpretation and Governing Law. The validity,
construction and effect of the Plan and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles. In the event the terms of this Plan
are inconsistent with the terms of any written employment agreement between a Participant and the Company or its subsidiary, the terms of such written employment agreement shall govern the Participant’s participation in the Plan 

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 and a Participant or any other person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company or any affiliate pursuant to an award, such right shall
be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or any affiliate.
