settlement, issuance or vesting of the Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Restricted Stock Award.

changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reclassification, stock dividend, or other change in the capital structure of
the Company, then appropriate adjustments shall be made by the Administrator to the aggregate number and kind of shares subject to this Plan, the number and kind of shares and the price per share subject to outstanding Option Agreements, Stock

be evidenced by an Option Agreement which shall specify the number of shares subject thereto, vesting provisions relating to such Option, the Exercise Price per share, and whether the Option is an Incentive Option or Nonqualified Option. As soon as
is practical following the grant of an Option, an Option Agreement shall be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Optionee to whom such Option was granted. Each Option Agreement shall be in such form and contain such
additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Administrator shall, from time to time, deem desirable. 

  
 6 

 5.3 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price per share of Common Stock covered by each Option
shall be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following: (a) the Exercise Price of an Incentive Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted, (b) the Exercise Price of a
Nonqualified Option shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value on the date the Nonqualified Option is granted, and (c) if the person to whom an Incentive Option is granted is a 10% Stockholder on the date of grant, the Exercise Price
shall not be less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date the Incentive Option is granted. However, an Option may be granted with an exercise price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an
assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424 of the Code. 
 5.4 Payment of
Exercise Price. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made upon exercise of an Option and may be made, in the discretion of the Administrator, subject to any legal restrictions, by: (a) cash; (b) check; (c) the surrender of
shares of Common Stock owned by the Optionee (provided that shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of options granted by the Company must have been held by the Optionee for the requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s
earnings for financial reporting purposes), which surrendered shares shall be valued at Fair Market Value as of the date of such exercise; (d) the cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee; (e) the waiver of compensation
due or accrued to the Optionee for services rendered; (f) provided that a public market for the Common Stock exists, a “same day sale” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise
the Option and to sell a portion of the shares so purchased to pay for the Exercise Price and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; (g) provided that a
public market for the Common Stock exists, a “margin” commitment from the Optionee and an NASD Dealer whereby the Optionee irrevocably elects to exercise the Option and to pledge the shares so purchased to the NASD Dealer in a margin
account as security for a loan from the NASD Dealer in the amount of the Exercise Price, and whereby the NASD Dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such shares to forward the Exercise Price directly to the Company; or (h) any combination
of the foregoing methods of payment or any other consideration or method of payment as shall be permitted by applicable law. 
 5.5 Term
and Termination of Options. Except for issuances of Incentive Options to 10% Stockholders, the term and provisions for termination of each Option shall be as fixed by the Administrator, but no Option may be exercisable more than seven
(7) years after the date it is granted. With respect to the issuance of Incentive Options to 10% Stockholders, the term and provisions for termination of each such Incentive Option shall not exceed five (5) years after the date it is
granted. 
 5.6 Vesting and Exercise of Options. Subject to Section 4.2(a) above, each Option shall vest and become exercisable
in one or more installments, at such time or times and subject to such conditions, including without limitation the achievement of specified performance goals or objectives established with respect to one or more Performance Criteria, as shall be
determined by the Administrator. 
 5.7 Annual Limit on Incentive Options. To the extent required for “incentive stock
option” treatment under Section 422 of the Code, the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant) of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Options granted under this Plan and any other plan of the Company or
any Affiliated Company become exercisable for the first time by an Optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. 
 5.8
Nontransferability of Options. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.8, Options shall not be assignable or transferable except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a DRO entered by a court in settlement of
marital property rights, and during the life of the Optionee, Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee. At the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with rules it establishes from time to time, Optionees may be permitted to transfer
some or all of their Nonqualified Options to one or more “family members,” which is not a “prohibited transfer for value,” provided that (i) the Optionee (or such Optionee’s estate or representative) shall remain
obligated to satisfy all income or other tax withholding obligations associated with the exercise of such Nonqualified Option; (ii) the Optionee shall notify the Company in writing that such transfer has occurred and disclose to the Company the
name and address of the “family member” or “family members” and their 

  
 7 

 
relationship to the Optionee, and (iii) such transfer shall be effected pursuant to transfer documents in a form approved by the Committee. For purposes of the foregoing, the terms
“family members” and “prohibited transfer for value” have the meaning ascribed to them in the General Instructions to Form S-8 (or any successor form) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 

5.9 Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee or permitted transferee of an Option shall have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with
respect to any shares covered by an Option until such Option has been duly exercised and certificates or book entries representing shares purchased upon such exercise have been issued or registered to such person. 

5.10 Repricing Prohibited. Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, without the prior approval of the Company’s stockholders, evidenced
by a majority of votes cast, neither the Committee nor the Board shall cause the cancellation, substitution or amendment of an Option Agreement that would have the effect of reducing the Exercise Price of such an Option previously granted under the
Plan, or otherwise approve any modification to such an Option that would be treated as a “repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements adopted by the Nasdaq Stock Market. 

5.11 Compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 5 to the contrary, all Option
Agreements must be structured to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Committee.

Agreements. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted pursuant to this Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, which shall specify the number of shares subject thereto, vesting provisions relating to such Stock Appreciation
Right and the Base Value per share. As soon as is practicable following the grant of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall be duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Company to the Stock Appreciation Right
Holder to whom such Stock Appreciation Right was granted. Each Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall be in such form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Administrator shall,
from time to time, deem desirable. 

  
 10 

 8.3 Base Value. The Base Value per share of Common Stock covered by each Stock
Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Administrator, except that the Base Value of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100% of Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is granted. 

8.4 Term and Termination of Stock Appreciation Rights. The term and provisions for termination of each Stock Appreciation Right shall
be fixed by the Administrator, but no Stock Appreciation Right may be exercisable or subject to settlement more than seven (7) years after the date it is granted. 

8.5 Vesting of Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to Section 4.2(a) above, each Stock Appreciation Right shall vest and become
exercisable in one or more installments at such time or times and subject to such conditions, including without limitation the achievement of specified performance goals or objectives established with respect to one or more Performance Criteria, as
shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 8.6 Exercise or Settlement of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right will
entitle the holder, upon exercise or other settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, to receive an amount determined by multiplying: (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise or
settlement of the Stock Appreciation Right over the Base Value of such Stock Appreciation Right, by (ii) the number of shares as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is exercised or settled. Upon such exercise or settlement, the Company shall
issue to the Stock Appreciation Right Holder a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the amount determined under the preceding sentence by the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date of exercise or settlement, subject to
applicable tax withholding requirements and to such conditions, as are set forth in this Plan and the applicable Stock Appreciation Rights Award Agreement. 

8.7 Repricing Prohibited. Subject to Section 4.3 hereof, without the prior approval of the Company’s stockholders, evidenced
by a majority of votes cast, neither the Committee nor the Board shall cause the cancellation, substitution or amendment of a Stock Appreciation Right Award that would have the effect of reducing the Base Value of such a Stock Appreciation Right
previously granted under the Plan, or otherwise approve any modification to such a Stock Appreciation Right Award that would be treated as a “repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements adopted by the
Nasdaq Stock Market. 
 8.8 Nontransferability of Stock Appreciation Rights. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.8,
Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be assignable or transferable except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a DRO entered by a court in settlement of marital property rights, and during the life of the Stock Appreciation
Rights Holder, Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable only by the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder. At the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with rules it establishes from time to time, Stock Appreciation Rights Holders may be
permitted to transfer some or all of their Stock Appreciation Rights to one or more “family members,” which is not a “prohibited transfer for value,” provided that (i) the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder (or such
holder’s estate or representative) shall remain obligated to satisfy all income or other tax withholding obligations associated with the exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right; (ii) the Stock Appreciation Rights Holder shall notify the
Company in writing that such transfer has occurred and disclose to the Company the name and address of the “family member” or “family members” and their relationship to the holder, and (iii) such transfer shall be effected
pursuant to transfer documents in a form approved by the Committee. For purposes of the foregoing, the terms “family members” and “prohibited transfer for value” have the meaning ascribed to them in the General Instructions to
Form S-8 (or any successor form) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
 8.9 Rights as a Stockholder. A Stock
Appreciation Rights Holder or permitted transferee of a Stock Appreciation Rights Holder shall have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by a Stock Appreciation Right until such Stock Appreciation Right has
been duly exercised or settled and certificates or book entries representing shares issued upon such exercise or settlement have been issued or registered to such person. 

8.10 Compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, all Stock
Appreciation Right Agreements must be structured to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Committee. 

  
 11 

 ARTICLE 9. 

ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN 

9.1 Administrator. Authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan shall be vested in the Board, which may
delegate such responsibilities in whole or in part to a committee consisting of two (2) or more members of the Board (the “Committee”). Members of the Committee may be appointed from time to time by, and shall serve at the pleasure
of, the Board. The Board may limit the composition of the Committee to those persons necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As used herein, the term
“Administrator” means the Board or, with respect to any matter as to which responsibility has been delegated to the Committee, the term Administrator shall mean the Committee. 

9.2 Powers of the Administrator. In addition to any other powers or authority conferred upon the Administrator elsewhere in the Plan or
by law, the Administrator shall have full power and authority: (a) to determine the persons to whom, and the time or times at which, Incentive Options, Nonqualified Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards shall be granted,
the number of shares to be represented by each Option or Stock Appreciation Right and the number of shares of Common Stock to be subject to Restricted Stock Awards, and the consideration to be received by the Company upon the exercise of such
Options or sale of the Restricted Stock or the Restricted Stock Units governed by such Restricted Stock Awards; (b) to interpret the Plan; (c) to create, amend or rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (d) to determine
the terms, conditions and restrictions contained in, and the form of, Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements; (e) to determine the identity or capacity of any persons who may be entitled to
exercise a Participant’s rights under any Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement under the Plan; (f) to correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan
or in any Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement; (g) to accelerate the vesting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or waive any repurchase rights of the Company with respect to Restricted
Stock Awards; (h) to extend the expiration date of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right; (i) to amend outstanding Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements to provide for, among other
things, any change or modification which the Administrator could have included in the original Agreement or in furtherance of the powers provided for herein; and (j) to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration
of the Plan, but only to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan. Any action, decision, interpretation or determination made in good faith by the Administrator in the exercise of its authority conferred upon it under the Plan
shall be final and binding on the Company and all Participants. 
 9.3 Limitation on Liability. No employee of the Company or member
of the Board or Committee shall be subject to any liability with respect to duties under the Plan unless the person acts fraudulently or in bad faith. To the extent permitted by law, the Company shall indemnify each member of the Board or Committee,
and any employee of the Company with duties under the Plan, who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of such
person’s conduct in the performance of duties under the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 10. 

CHANGE IN CONTROL 

10.1 Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights with respect to any outstanding Options
and Stock Appreciation Rights in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
 (a) Vesting of all outstanding
Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall accelerate automatically effective as of immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control unless the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights are to be assumed by the acquiring or successor
entity (or parent thereof) or new options or new stock appreciation rights under a new stock incentive program (“New Incentives”) are to be issued in exchange therefor, as provided in subsection (b) below. 

  
 12 

 (b) Vesting of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Right Agreements
shall not accelerate if and to the extent that: (i) the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (including the unvested portion thereof) are to be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or new options and stock
appreciation rights of comparable value are to be issued in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction, or (ii) the Options and Stock Appreciation Rights (including the unvested portions thereof) are to be
replaced by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) with New Incentives containing such terms and provisions as the Administrator in its discretion may consider equitable. If outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are
assumed, or if New Incentives of comparable value are issued in exchange therefor, then each such Option and Stock Appreciation Right or new stock option or new stock appreciation right shall be appropriately adjusted, concurrently with the Change
in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities or other property that the Optionee or Stock Appreciation Rights Holder would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of
the Option or Stock Appreciation Right had the Option or Stock Appreciation Right been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and appropriate adjustment also shall be made to the Exercise Price such that the aggregate Exercise Price
of each such Option or new option and the aggregate Base Value of each such Stock Appreciation Right or new stock appreciation right shall remain the same as nearly as practicable. 

(c) If any Option or Stock Appreciation Right is assumed by an acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) or a
New Incentive is issued in exchange therefor pursuant to the terms of a Change in Control transaction, then if so provided in an Option Agreement or a Stock Appreciation Right Award Agreement, the vesting of the Option, the Stock Appreciation Right
or the New Incentive shall accelerate if and at such time as the Optionee’s or Stock Appreciation Rights Holder’s service as an employee, director, officer, consultant or other service provider to the acquiring or successor entity (or a
parent or subsidiary thereof) is terminated involuntarily or voluntarily under certain circumstances within a specified period following consummation of the Change in Control, pursuant to such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Option
Agreement or Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, as the case may be. 
 (d) If vesting of outstanding Options will
accelerate pursuant to subsection (a) above, the Administrator in its discretion may provide, in connection with the Change in Control transaction, for the purchase or exchange of each Option for an amount of cash or other property having a
value equal to the difference (or “spread”) between: (x) the value of the cash or other property that the Optionee would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of
the Option had the Option been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control, and (y) the Exercise Price of the Option. 

(e) The Administrator shall have the discretion to provide in each Option Agreement and Stock Appreciation Right
Agreement other terms and conditions that relate to (i) vesting of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right in the event of a Change in Control, and (ii) assumption of such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights or issuance of comparable
securities or New Incentives in the event of a Change in Control. The aforementioned terms and conditions may vary in each Option Agreement and Stock Appreciation Agreement, and may be different from and have precedence over the provisions set forth
in Sections 10.1(a) - 10.1(d) above. 
 (f) Outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall terminate and
cease to be exercisable upon consummation of a Change in Control except to the extent that the Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are assumed by the successor entity (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

 (g) If outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights will not be assumed by the acquiring or successor entity
(or parent thereof), the Administrator shall cause written notice of a proposed Change in Control transaction to be given to Optionees and Stock Appreciation Rights Holders not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effective date
of the proposed transaction. 

  
 13 

 10.2 Restricted Stock Awards. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights with
respect to any outstanding Restricted Stock Awards in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
 (a) All
Repurchase Rights shall automatically terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such Change in Control and any shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units subject to such terminated Repurchase Rights, or Restricted Stock Units,
whether or not subject to such terminated Repurchase Rights shall immediately vest in full, except to the extent that in connection with such Change in Control, the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) provides for the continuance or
assumption of Restricted Stock Award Agreements or the substitution of new agreements of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and purchase price. 

(b) The Administrator in its discretion may provide in any Restricted Stock Award Agreement that if, upon a Change in
Control, the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof) assumes such Restricted Stock Award Agreement or substitutes new agreements of comparable value covering shares of a successor corporation (with appropriate adjustments as to the number
and kind of shares and purchase price), then any Repurchase Right provided for in such Restricted Stock Award Agreement shall terminate, and the shares of Common Stock subject to the terminated Repurchase Right or any substituted shares shall
immediately vest in full, if the Participant’s service as an employee, director, officer, consultant or other service provider to the acquiring or successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) is terminated involuntarily or voluntarily
under certain circumstances within a specified period following consummation of a Change in Control, pursuant to such terms and conditions as shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement. 

ARTICLE 11. 
 AMENDMENT
AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 
 11.1 Amendments. The Board may from time to time alter or amend in such respects as the Board may
deem advisable, subject to compliance with applicable laws and the rules of the stock exchange or market system on which the Company’s Common Stock is then listed or admitted to trading, and may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No
such alteration, amendment, suspension or termination shall be made which shall substantially affect or impair the rights of any Participant under an outstanding Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement without such Participant’s
consent. The Board may alter or amend the Plan to comply with requirements under the Code relating to Incentive Options or other types of options which give Optionees more favorable tax treatment than that applicable to Options granted under this
Plan as of the date of its adoption. Upon any such alteration or amendment, any outstanding Option granted hereunder may, if the Administrator so determines and if permitted by applicable law, be subject to the more favorable tax treatment afforded
to an Optionee pursuant to such terms and conditions. 
 11.2 Plan Termination. Unless the Plan shall theretofore have been
terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date and no Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards may be granted under the Plan thereafter, but Option Agreements, Stock Appreciation
Right Agreements and Restricted Stock Award Agreements then outstanding shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms. 

ARTICLE 12. 

CANCELLATION AND RECISSION 

12.1 Adverse Acts. Unless otherwise provided in an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award
Agreement, the Administrator may cancel, terminate, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict any unexpired, unpaid, or deferred Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Restricted Stock Awards at any time if the Participant is not in
compliance with all applicable provisions of the Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, and the Plan, or if the Participant engages in any “Adverse Act.” For purposes of this
Section 12, an “Adverse Act” shall include: (i) the rendering of services for any organization or engaging directly or indirectly in any business which is or becomes 

  
 14 

 
competitive with the Company, or which organization or business, or the rendering of services to such organization or business, is or becomes otherwise prejudicial to or in conflict with the
interests of the Company; (ii) the disclosure to anyone outside the Company, or the use in other than the Company’s business, without prior written authorization from the Company, of any confidential information or material relating to the
business of the Company, acquired by the Participant either during or after employment with the Company; (iii) the failure or refusal to disclose promptly and to assign to the Company in accordance with the Company’s policies and any
agreement in effect between the Company and the Participant pertaining to confidentiality and/or ownership of intellectual property all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived by the Participant
during employment by the Company, relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or development work of the Company; (iv) acts that result in termination of the Participant’s employment for cause; (v) a
material violation of any rules, policies, procedures or guidelines of the Company; or (vi) any attempt directly or indirectly to induce any employee of the Company to be employed or perform services elsewhere or any attempt directly or
indirectly to solicit the trade or business of any current or prospective customer, supplier or partner of the Company. 
 12.2 Agreement
Upon Exercise or Settlement. Upon exercise, settlement, payment or delivery pursuant to an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, the Participant shall certify in a manner acceptable to the
Company that he or she is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Plan. In the event a Participant fails to comply with the provisions of paragraphs (i)-(vi) of Section 12.1 prior to, or during the six (6) months after, any
exercise, settlement, payment or delivery pursuant to an Option Agreement, Stock Appreciation Right Agreement or Restricted Stock Award Agreement, such exercise, settlement, payment or delivery may be rescinded within two (2) years thereafter.
In the event of any such rescission, the Participant shall pay to the Company the amount of any gain realized or payment received as a result of the exercise, payment or delivery, in such manner and on such terms and conditions as may be required,
and the Company shall be entitled to set off against the amount of any such gain any amount owed to the Participant by the Company. 

ARTICLE 13. 
 TAX
WITHHOLDING 
 13.1 Withholding. The Company shall have the power to withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company,
an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable Federal, state, and local tax withholding requirements with respect to any Options or Stock Appreciation Rights exercised or settled or, with respect to the issuance of Restricted Stock, the date that
the shares are issued, if the Purchaser makes the election set forth in Code Section 83(b), or, if the Purchaser does not make such election, then, with respect to the Restricted Stock Award, as of the date that the applicable restrictions set
forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement and the Plan lapse. To the extent permissible under applicable tax, securities and other laws, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion and upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate,
permit a Participant to satisfy his or her obligation to pay any such tax, in whole or in part, up to an amount determined on the basis of the highest marginal tax rate applicable to such Participant, by (a) directing the Company to apply
shares of Common Stock to which the Participant is entitled as a result of the exercise or settlement of an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right or as a result of the purchase of or lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock Awards or
(b) delivering to the Company shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant. The shares of Common Stock so applied or delivered in satisfaction of the Participant’s tax withholding obligation shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as
of the date of measurement of the amount of income subject to withholding. 
 ARTICLE 14. 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 14.1
Benefits Not Alienable. Other than as provided above, benefits under the Plan may not be assigned or alienated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. Any unauthorized attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without
effect. 

  
 15 

 14.2 No Enlargement of Employee Rights. This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on
the part of the Company and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Company and any Participant to be consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Participant. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
be deemed to give the right to any Participant to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Affiliated Company or to interfere with the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company to discharge any Participant at any time. 

14.3 Application of Funds. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Option Agreements and
Restricted Stock Award Agreements, except as otherwise provided herein, will be used for general corporate purposes. 
 14.4 Annual
Reports. During the term of this Plan, the Company will furnish to each Participant who does not otherwise receive such materials, copies of all reports, proxy statements and other communications that the Company distributes generally to its
stockholders. 

  
 16EX-10.6

 Exhibit 10.6 

FORM OF 
 NEWPORT
CORPORATION 
 STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT AWARD AGREEMENT 

THIS STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of [GRANT DATE] (the “Grant Date”), by
and between Newport Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and [GRANTEE NAME] (the “Grantee”) pursuant to the Company’s 2006 Performance-Based Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Any capitalized term not
defined herein shall have the same meaning ascribed to it in the Plan. 
 RECITALS 

A. Grantee is an employee, director, consultant or other Service Provider, and in connection therewith has rendered services for
and on behalf of the Company. 
 B. The Company desires to award Stock Appreciation Rights to Grantee to provide an incentive
for Grantee to remain a Service Provider of the Company and to exert added effort towards its growth and success. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows: 

1. Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Company hereby grants to Grantee Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to [NUMBER OF
STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS] shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the Base Value per share set forth in Section 2 below (the “SARs”) on and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the Plan. 

2. Base Value. The Base Value of each SAR is [BASE VALUE], which is equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of the
Company’s Common Stock on the Grant Date. 
 3. Vesting of SARs. 

(a) Vesting Schedule. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4 and 5 below, the SARs evidenced by this Agreement shall vest in
installments as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (each a “Vesting Date”), subject to the achievement of specified performance goals established by the Committee (as defined in the
Plan) with respect to the Performance Criteria (as defined in the Plan) set forth in Exhibit A (each, a “Performance Condition”) for the fiscal year(s) or other fiscal period(s) or specific event(s) set forth in
Exhibit A (each, a “Performance Period”), in accordance with the provisions set forth in Exhibit A of this Agreement, and the other terms and conditions set forth herein. 

(b) Performance Determination Date. For each Performance Condition, the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, and
certify in writing whether and the extent to which such Performance Condition was achieved for a Performance Period. Except as otherwise set forth in Exhibit A, such determination and written certification will be made following completion of
the external audit of the Company’s financial statements for the applicable Performance Period (the “Performance Determination Date”). 

4. Continuous Service. 

(a) Definition of Continuous Service. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Continuous Service” means:
(1) employment of the Grantee by either the Company or any Affiliated Company (as defined in the Plan), or by any successor entity following a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), which is uninterrupted other than by vacations, illness
(except for permanent disability, as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), or leaves of absence which are approved in writing by the Company or any Affiliated Company, if
applicable; (2) service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company until Grantee resigns, is removed from office, or Grantee’s term of office expires and he or she is not reelected; or (3) so long as Grantee is engaged as a
Service Provider (as defined in the Plan) to the Company or an Affiliated Company. Changes in Grantee’s status among the alternatives set forth in the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and/or (3) shall not be deemed to terminate
Grantee’s Continuous Service. For purposes of this Agreement, the length of previous employment of Grantee by any entity, or relating to any business, that has been acquired by the Company or any Affiliated Company shall be included for
purposes of calculating the number of years of Grantee’s Continuous Service. 

 (b) Termination of Continuous Service. In the event of any termination of
Grantee’s Continuous Service, notwithstanding Section 3(a) above, vesting of the SARs shall cease immediately upon a termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service. Service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial
portion, will not entitle the Grantee to any proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of Continuous Service. Any SARs subject to this Agreement, to the extent not vested as of
the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service, shall be automatically cancelled as of such date (regardless of the reason for such termination, including, without limitation, a termination due to death or permanent disability), and
the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such SARs; provided, however, that any SARs that have vested as of the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service shall continue to be exercisable in accordance with
Section 6(a) below. 
 5. Change in Control. Notwithstanding Section 3(a) above, in the event there occurs a Change in
Control (as defined in the Plan) of the Company, then, except as provided herein, the portion of the SARs that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to such occurrence shall accelerate and become fully vested (100% achievement of all
applicable Performance Conditions shall be deemed to have occurred) upon (or, as may be necessary to effect such acceleration, immediately prior to) the consummation of the Change in Control. If, however, this Agreement is assigned by the Company
and assumed by the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof), or if new SARs under a new stock incentive program are to be issued in exchange therefor, in connection with such Change in Control transaction (as such events are more
particularly described in the Plan), then vesting of the SARs shall not accelerate and the time-based vesting schedule shall continue to apply, but 100% achievement of all applicable Performance Conditions shall be deemed to have occurred.

 6. Right to Exercise. 

(a) Exercise Period. The right of the Grantee to exercise SARs that have vested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
shall terminate upon the first to occur of the following: 
 (i) the expiration of seven (7) years from the date of this
Agreement; 
 (ii) the expiration of three (3) months from the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service if such
termination occurs for any reason other than Qualifying Retirement (as defined hereinbelow), permanent disability, death or cause; provided, however, that if Grantee dies during such three-month period the provisions of subsection 6(a)(v) below
shall apply; 
 (iii) immediately on the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service if such termination occurs for cause;

 (iv) the expiration of one (1) year from the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service if such termination is
due to permanent disability of the Grantee (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) where the Grantee does not have ten (10) years of Continuous Service at the time of such termination; 

(v) the expiration of one (1) year from the date of termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service if such termination is due to
Grantee’s death or if death occurs during the three-month period following termination of Grantee’s Continuous Service pursuant to subsection 6(a)(ii) above, in either case where the Grantee does not have ten (10) years of Continuous
Service at the time of such termination; 
 (vi) the expiration of seven (7) years from the date of this Agreement if such
termination is due to: (i) Grantee’s Qualifying Retirement, (ii) Grantee’s permanent disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), where at the time of Grantee’s termination Grantee has ten (10) years of
Continuous Service, or (iii) Grantee’s death, where at the time of Grantee’s termination Grantee has ten (10) years of Continuous Service; or 

(vii) upon the consummation of a Change in Control, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 5 above. 

(b) Qualifying Retirement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Qualifying Retirement” shall occur if at the time of
Grantee’s retirement (i) Grantee has had ten (10) years of Continuous Service and (ii) is age 59 1⁄2 or older. 

7. Delivery of Common Stock Upon Exercise. Upon exercise of the SARs, Grantee will receive an amount, payable in shares of the
Company’s Common Stock, determined by multiplying: (a) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the SARs over the Base Value of such Stock Appreciation Right, by (b) the number of
shares of Common Stock as to which such SARs are exercised. Upon such exercise, the Company shall issue to Grantee a number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the amount determined under the preceding sentence by the Fair Market Value
of such shares on the date of exercise, subject to applicable tax withholding requirements as set forth in Section 8(b). The value of any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be paid in cash at the time the shares are delivered to Grantee in
connection with the exercise of the SARs. 
 8. Tax Matters. 

(a) Compliance with Tax Laws. In order to comply with all applicable federal or state income tax laws or regulations, the Company
may take such action as it deems appropriate to ensure that all applicable federal or state payroll, withholding, income or other taxes, which are the sole and absolute responsibility of Grantee, are withheld or collected from Grantee. 

  
 2 

 (b) Tax Withholding. The Company shall reasonably determine the amount of any
federal, state, local or other income, employment, or other taxes which the Company or any Affiliated Company may reasonably be obligated to withhold with respect to the grant, vesting, exercise or other event with respect to the SARs. The Company
may, in its sole discretion, withhold a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock in connection with the exercise of the SARs at the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the Common Stock (determined as of the date of measurement of the
amount of income subject to such withholding) to satisfy the amount of any such withholding obligations that arise with respect to the exercise of such SARs. The Company may take such action(s) without notice to the Grantee and shall remit to the
Grantee the balance of any proceeds from withholding such shares in excess of the amount reasonably determined to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligations. The Grantee shall have no discretion as to the satisfaction of tax withholding
obligations in such manner. If, however, any withholding event occurs with respect to the SARs other than upon the exercise of such SARs, or if the Company for any reason does not satisfy the withholding obligations with respect to the exercise of
the SARs as provided above in this Section 8(b), the Company shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the Grantee and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Grantee the amount of any such withholding
obligations. 
 (c) Tax Treatment. The SARs evidenced by this Agreement, and the issuance of shares of Common Stock or payments
to the Grantee in connection with the exercise of the SARs, are intended to be taxed under the provisions of Section 83 of the Code, and are not intended to provide and do not provide for the deferral of compensation within the meaning
of Section 409A(d) of the Code. The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement, without the Grantee’s consent, to the extent it reasonably determines from time to time that such amendment is necessary in order to achieve the
purposes of this Section. 
 9. Adjustments Upon Specified Events. 

(a) Adjustment in Number and Kind. In the event that the outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock are hereafter
increased or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company by reason of a recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reclassification, stock dividend, or other change in
the capital structure of the Company, then the Company shall make appropriate adjustments to the number of SARs subject to this Agreement and to the number and kind of securities that may be issued in respect of such SARs, in order to preserve, as
nearly as practical, but not to increase, the benefits to the Grantee. 
 (b) Adjustment to Performance Measures. With respect
to any Performance Condition, the Company shall adjust the performance measures, performance goals, relative weights of the measures, and other provisions of this Agreement to the extent (if any) it determines, in its sole discretion, that the
adjustment is necessary or advisable to preserve the intended incentives and benefits to reflect (1) any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, material change in corporate capitalization, any material corporate transaction (such as
a reorganization, combination, separation, merger, acquisition, or any combination of the foregoing), or any complete or partial liquidation of the Company, (2) any change in accounting policies or practices, (3) the effects of any special
charges to the Company’s earnings, or (4) any other similar special circumstances. 
 10. No Stockholder Rights. The
Grantee shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, no dividend rights and no voting rights with respect to the SARs or any shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of such SARs, unless and until shares of Common Stock are actually
issued to and held of record by the Grantee. No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the SARs, except as
provided in Section 9 hereof. 
 11. Restrictions on Transfer. Until shares of the Company’s Common Stock have been
issued free of restrictions in connection with the exercise of the SARs, neither the SARs nor any interest therein or amount payable in respect thereof may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, alienated or encumbered by
the Grantee, either voluntarily or involuntarily, except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a DRO entered by a court in settlement of marital property rights or except as authorized by the Administrator of the Plan in its
sole discretion. The transfer restrictions set forth in this Section 11 shall not apply to transfers to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the issuance of shares of the Company’s Common Stock in settlement of exercised SARs,
the restrictions set forth in this Section 11 shall continue to apply to such issued shares until such time as the Grantee has satisfied all holding period requirements applicable to the Grantee based on his or her position with the Company
under any Company policy. 
 12. Adverse Activity. The Company may cancel, rescind, suspend, withhold or otherwise limit or
restrict all or any portion of the SARs at any time if the Grantee is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, or if the Grantee engages in any “Adverse Activity.” For purposes of this
Section 12, “Adverse Activity” shall include: (a) the rendering of services for any organization or engaging directly or indirectly in any business which is or becomes competitive with the Company, or which organization or
business, or the rendering of services to such organization or business, is or becomes otherwise prejudicial to or in conflict with the interests of the Company; (b) the disclosure to anyone outside the Company, or the use in other than the

  
 3 

 
Company’s business, without prior written authorization from the Company, of any confidential information or material relating to the business of the Company, acquired by the Grantee either
during or after employment or other engagement with the Company; (c) the failure or refusal to disclose promptly and to assign to the Company (in accordance with the Company’s policies and any agreement in effect between the Company and
the Grantee pertaining to confidentiality and/or ownership of intellectual property) all right, title and interest in any invention or idea, patentable or not, made or conceived by the Grantee during employment by the Company, utilizing any Company
property, during Grantee’s working time, or relating in any manner to the actual or anticipated business, research or development work of the Company; (d) activity that results in termination of the Grantee’s employment for cause;
(e) a material violation of any rules, policies, procedures or guidelines of the Company; or (f) any attempt directly or indirectly to induce any employee of the Company to be employed or perform services elsewhere or any attempt directly
or indirectly to solicit the trade or business of any current or prospective customer, supplier or partner of the Company. 

13. Compliance with Laws. The award of SARs and the offer, issuance and delivery of securities under this Agreement are subject to
compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal securities laws) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of
counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. The Grantee will, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance
with all applicable legal requirements. The Company will cause such action to be taken, and such filings to be made, so that the grant hereunder shall comply with the rules of the Nasdaq National Market or the principal stock exchange on which
shares of the Company’s Common Stock are then listed for trading. 
 14. Limitation of Company’s Liability for
Nonissuance; Unpermitted Transfers. The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain from any applicable regulatory agency such authority or approval as may be required in order to issue and sell the shares of the Company’s
Common Stock to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement. The inability of the Company to obtain, from any such regulatory agency, authority or approval deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of the shares
hereunder and under the Plan shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the nonissuance or sale of such shares as to which such requisite authority or approval shall not have been obtained. The Company shall not be required to:
(a) transfer on its books any SARs or any shares issued in respect thereof which shall have been sold or transferred in violation of any of the provisions set forth in this Agreement, or (b) treat as owner of such issued shares or to
accord the right to vote as such owner or to pay dividends to any transferee to whom such issued shares shall have been so transferred. 

15. Legends. In the event, and only in the event, that, at the time shares of Common Stock are to be issued in connection with the
exercise of the SARs pursuant to this Agreement, the Company does not have an effective Form S-8 Registration Statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the offer and sale of shares of Common Stock covered by this
Agreement, the certificates, if any, representing the shares of Common Stock so paid will bear a legend in substantially the following form: 

“THESE SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 OR UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAW. THEY MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR
SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR PLEDGED WITHOUT (1) REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE LAW, OR (2) AN OPINION (SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY) OF COUNSEL (SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY) THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT
REQUIRED.” 
 16. “Market Stand-Off” Agreement. Grantee agrees that, if requested by the Company or the managing
underwriter of any proposed public offering of the Company’s securities (including any acquisition transaction where Company securities will be used as all or part of the purchase price), Grantee will not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose
of any shares of Common Stock held by Grantee that were received upon the exercise of the SARs without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriter, as the case may be, during such period of time, not to exceed 180 days
following the effective date of the registration statement filed by the Company with respect to such offering, as the Company or the underwriter may specify. 

17. No Agreement to Employ. Nothing contained in this Agreement constitutes an employment commitment by the Company or any
Affiliated Company, confers upon the Grantee any right to remain employed by the Company or any Affiliated Company, or interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company at any time to terminate such employment. Nothing in
this paragraph, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Grantee under any written agreement with the Company or any Affiliated Company. 

18. General. 

(a) Section Headings; Number and Gender. The section headings of, and titles of paragraphs and subparagraphs contained in,
this Agreement are for the purpose of convenience only, and they neither form a part of this Agreement nor are they to be used in the construction or interpretation thereof. Where the context requires, the singular shall include the plural, the

and assigns of the Company and be binding upon the Grantee and his heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns. 

(h) Waiver. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under this
Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of
any right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any occurrence be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power or privilege with respect to any other occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the
party asserted to have granted such waiver. 
 (i) Notices. Any notice, demand or request required or permitted to be given
under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when delivered personally or three (3) days after being deposited in the United States mail, as certified or registered mail, with postage prepaid, (or by such other method as

together, shall bear the signatures of all of the parties reflected hereon as the signatories. Copies of such signed counterparts may be used in lieu of the originals for any purpose.
