 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 EDGEN GROUP INC. 

FORM OF INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 
 This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of ______________, 2012, between Edgen Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”)
and _______________ (“Indemnitee”). Except as otherwise indicated herein, capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 1 hereof. 
 WHEREAS, it is essential to the Company that it be able to retain and attract as directors and officers the most capable persons available; 

WHEREAS, increased corporate litigation has subjected directors and officers to litigation risks and expenses, and the limitations on the
availability of directors and officers liability insurance have made it increasingly difficult for companies to attract and retain such persons; 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to provide Indemnitee with specific contractual assurance of Indemnitee’s rights to full indemnification against litigation risks and expenses (regardless, among other
things, of any amendment to any of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or revocation of any provision of the Company’s Bylaws or any change in the ownership of the Company or the composition of its board of directors (the
“Board of Directors”)); and 
 WHEREAS, the indemnification rights provided to the Indemnitee pursuant to this
Agreement are in addition to any rights for indemnification provided to the Indemnitee pursuant to the Company’s certificate of incorporation, Bylaws and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto and to any indemnification rights to which
Indemnitee may be entitled under the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). 
 WHEREAS, Indemnitee is
relying upon the rights afforded under this Agreement in becoming or continuing as a director or officer of the Company. 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement: 
 (a) “Company
Status” describes the status of a person who is or was a director, officer, manager, employee, agent, fiduciary or the like of the Company or of any other Enterprise. 
 (b) “Enterprise” shall mean the Company and any other limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan, trade organization or other
enterprise or organization that Indemnitee is or was serving or participating at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, employee, agent, fiduciary or the like. Any person

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 
serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture or other enterprise, at least fifty percent of whose equity
interests are owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, shall be conclusively presumed to be serving in such capacity at the request of the Corporation. 
 (c) “Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees and costs of experts, consultants, witnesses and private investigators, travel
expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees, any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this
Agreement, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, and all other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or defend, investigating, responding or objecting to a request
to provide discovery in, being or preparing to be a witness in, or otherwise participating in, a Proceeding. Expenses also shall include (i) Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any Proceeding, including without
limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersedeas bond, or other appeal bond or its equivalent, (ii) Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of
Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement, by litigation or otherwise and (iii) Expenses incurred in connection with the Indemnitee’s pursuit of recovery under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies
maintained by the Company. The parties agree that for the purposes of any advancement of Expenses for which Indemnitee has made written demand to the Company in accordance with this Agreement, all Expenses included in such demand that are
certified by affidavit of Indemnitee’s counsel as being reasonable shall be presumed conclusively to be reasonable. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in settlement by Indemnitee or the amount of judgments or fines against
Indemnitee (which for the avoidance of doubt are the subject of Sections 2 and 3). If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however,
for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 
 [(d) “JCP Fund” shall mean (i) each of Jefferies Capital Partners IV, L.P., JCP Partners IV, LLC, Jefferies Employee Partners IV, LLC (the “JCP Entities”),
(ii) each of the respective general partners or managing members of such JCP Entity (a “JCP Partner”) and (iii) any corporation, partnership or other entity that is an Affiliate of any of the JCP Entities or any JCP
Partner (including Jefferies Capital Partners LLC, but excluding the Company and its subsidiaries) (collectively, “JCP Affiliates”).]1 
 (e) “Person” means an individual, a partnership, a corporation, a limited liability company, an association, a joint stock company, a trust, a joint venture, an unincorporated
organization or other entity and a governmental entity or any department, agency or political subdivision thereof. 
  

	1 	 All references herein to the JCP Funds are to be used only in the Indemnification Agreements of Nicholas Daraviras and James L. Luikart.

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 (f) “Proceeding” shall include any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by, against or in the right
of the Company or otherwise and whether of a civil, criminal, administrative legislative, or investigative (formal or informal) nature, including any appeal therefrom in which Indemnitee was, is or will be involved as a party, potential party,
non-party witness or otherwise: (i) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director or officer of the Company, by reason of any action taken by him or of any action on his part while acting as director or officer of the Company, or
otherwise by reason of his Corporate Status; or (ii) arising out of any claim for monetary relief against the Indemnitee in respect of any alleged breach of any fiduciary duty to the Enterprise, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, in each case whether or not serving or participating in such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification, reimbursement, or advancement of expenses can be provided under this Agreement; including one
pending on or before the date of this Agreement, but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement to enforce his rights under this Agreement. 

(g) “to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law” shall include, but not be limited to: (i) to the fullest
extent permitted by the provision of the DGCL that authorizes or contemplates additional or supplementary indemnification by agreement, or the corresponding provision of any amendment to or replacement of the DGCL or such provision thereof; and
(ii) to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by any amendments to or replacements of the DGCL adopted after the date of this Agreement that increase the extent to which a corporation may indemnify its directors. 

2. Agreement to Indemnify. The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by
law as follows: 
 (a) Subject to the exceptions contained in Section 10(a)(ii) below, if Indemnitee was or is a
party or a participant or is threatened to be made a party or a participant to any Proceeding (other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company) by reason of Indemnitee’s Company Status, Indemnitee shall be indemnified by the Company
against all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein. 

(b) Subject to the exceptions contained in Section 10(a)(iii) below, if Indemnitee was or is a party or a participant or is
threatened to be made a party or a participant to any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Company Status, Indemnitee shall be indemnified by the Company against all Expenses
incurred or paid by the Indemnitee in connection with such Proceedings. 
 [(c) If any JCP Fund is, or is threatened to be made,
a party to or a participant in any Proceeding, then to the extent the JCP Fund’s involvement in the Proceeding arises from the Indemnitee’s service to the Company as an officer or director of the Company, the JCP Fund shall be entitled to
all of the indemnification rights and remedies, and shall to the extent 

  
 3 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 
indemnified hereunder, undertake the obligations of the Indemnitee, under this Agreement to the same extent as Indemnitee and to the same extent as if such JCP Fund was a party hereto. Each JCP
Fund is an intended third party beneficiary under this Agreement.] 
 3. Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is
Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Company Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding, he shall be
indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or
otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall, at a minimum, indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section 3 and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a
successful result as to such claim, issue or matter. The foregoing provisions of this Section 3 are in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights of the Indemnitee under this Agreement, including, without limitation, under
Section 2 and/or Section 6, granting the Indemnitee the right to be indemnified against, and/or receive an advancement of Expenses in respect of, any Proceeding in which the Indemnitee is unsuccessful, in whole or in part.

 4. Contribution. 
 (a) Whether or not the indemnification provided in Section 2 hereof is available, in respect of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in
such Proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such Proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes
any right of contribution they may have against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless
such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee. 
 (b) Without diminishing or
impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding subparagraph (a), if, for any reason, Indemnitee shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly
liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such Proceeding), the Company shall promptly (but no later than five (5) days from receiving Indemnitee’s request for reimbursement) reimburse Indemnitee for such amount paid by Indemnitee.

 (c) The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be
brought by directors, officers, employees or other agents or representatives of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee. 

  
 4 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 (d) To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law,
if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, fines,
penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses (to the maximum extent permitted), in connection with any claim relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement. 

5. Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee
is, by reason of his Company Status, a witness, or is asked to respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf
in connection therewith. 
 6. Advancement of Expenses. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
the Company shall advance, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, all Expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding, and such advancement shall be made within twenty (20) days after the receipt by
the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances (which shall include invoices received by Indemnitee in connection with such Expenses but, in the case of invoices in connection with legal services, any references to legal work
performed or to expenditures made that would cause Indemnitee to waive any privilege accorded by applicable law shall not be included with the invoice) from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances
shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this
Agreement. Advances shall include any and all Expenses incurred pursuing an action to enforce this right of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. The
Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that the Indemnitee undertakes to the fullest extent required by applicable law to repay the
amounts advanced (without interest) if and to the extent that it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment, not subject to appeal, that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. No
other form of undertaking shall be required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 6 shall not apply to any request for advancement relating to any claim for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section
[10(a)]. The right to advances under this paragraph shall in all events continue until final disposition of any Proceeding. 
 7. Procedures for Making an Indemnification Claim. 
 (a) To obtain
indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine
whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification, advise the Company’s Board of Directors in writing that Indemnitee has
requested indemnification. 

  
 5 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of Indemnitee to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not relieve the Company of any liability
that it may have to Indemnitee. Any indemnification claim made by the Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Company within 30 days after the Company’s receipt of Indemnitee’s request for indemnification pursuant to
this Agreement. 
 (b) Indemnitee shall have the right to defend any Proceeding. The Company shall be entitled to monitor
the defense of any Proceeding at its own expense with counsel of its own choosing but shall not be entitled to conduct the defense of any Proceeding or settle or participate in the discussion or negotiation of any settlement of any
Proceeding. In no event shall Indemnitee be required to waive, prejudice or limit any attorney-client privilege or work-product protection or other applicable privilege or protection. Indemnitee shall seek the Company’s consent to any
settlement of any Proceeding where indemnification is sought hereunder for any amounts paid in settlement, and Indemnitee shall, subject to the preceding sentence, provide all information reasonably necessary for the Company to evaluate the proposed
settlement. The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected by Indemnitee without the Company’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The Company’s prior written consent to any proposed settlement shall be deemed to have been given unless the Company notifies the Indemnitee of its objection thereto within ten (10) days after any written request for such
consent.
 (c) The Company may not, without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, settle, support or agree not to
contest any Proceeding, or consent to, support or agree not to contest the settlement of any Proceeding or settlement or other resolution of any other claim, action, proceeding, demand, investigation or other matter, which would in any manner:
(i) impose any penalty, limitation, restriction or requirement on the Indemnitee; (ii) include an admission of fault of, or adverse finding with respect to, the Indemnitee; (iii) not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the full
release of Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such Proceeding, which release shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee; or (iv) have the actual or purported effect of extinguishing, limiting or impairing
Indemnitee’s rights hereunder Indemnitee’s rights hereunder, including without limitation the entry of any bar order or other order, decree or stipulation, pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 78u-4 (the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act),
or any similar foreign, federal or state statute, regulation, rule or law. 
 8. Remedies of Indemnitee. 

(a) In the event that the Company breaches any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an
adjudication in the Delaware Court of Chancery, or, solely in the event that the Delaware Court of Chancery declines jurisdiction, an appropriate state or federal court located in the State of Delaware, of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such
indemnification. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication. 
 (b) In the event that
the Company determines that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 8 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits, and
Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of the Company’s adverse determination. 

  
 6 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 (c) If the Company determines that Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, it shall thereafter be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 8, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an
omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law. 

(d) In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 8, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to
recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, the Company shall pay on his behalf, in advance (and within 30 days following the
Indemnitee’s written request to the Company), any and all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification,
advancement of expenses or insurance recovery. 
 (e) The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding
commenced pursuant to this Section 8 that the procedures and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.

 (f) In any judicial proceedings brought pursuant to this Section 8, the Company shall have the burden of proving,
by clear and convincing evidence, that the Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of indemnification and/or Expenses pursuant to this Agreement. 
 9. Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification. 
 (a) The rights of indemnification provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the certificate of
incorporation or the bylaws of the Company, or the certificate of incorporation (or any similar governing documents) of any subsidiary of the Company, any other agreement, a vote of stockholders, a resolution of directors or otherwise. No amendment,
alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his Company Status prior to such amendment,
alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the DGCL, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the certificate of incorporation of the Company, the Bylaws of the Company
and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,
and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or
otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or 

  
 7 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 
employment of any other right or remedy. The Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement are present contractual rights that are fully vested upon Indemnitee’s first service as a director,
officer, manager, employee, agent, fiduciary or the like of the Company or any other Enterprise. 
 (b) For the duration of
Indemnitee’s service as a director, officer, manager, employee, agent, fiduciary or the like of the Company, and thereafter for so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any proceeding commenced under Section 8
hereof) by reason of his Company Status, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account the scope and amount of coverage available relative to the cost thereof) to cause to be maintained in effect policies of liability
insurance providing coverage for directors and officers of the Company that are at least substantially comparable in scope and amount to that provided by the Company’s current policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.
To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, managers, officers, employees, agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other Enterprise, Indemnitee shall be covered by such
policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim
pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action (including all action reasonably requested by Indemnitee) to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such
proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policies. 
 [(c) The Company hereby acknowledges that Indemnitee has certain
rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by the JCP Funds. The Company hereby agrees (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort with respect to matters that are entitled to indemnification hereunder
(i.e., its obligations to Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the JCP Funds to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) that it shall be
required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms
of this Agreement, the certificate of incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company (or any other agreement between the Company and Indemnitee), without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the JCP Funds, and, (iii) that it
irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the JCP Funds from any and all claims against the JCP Funds for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment
by any JCP Fund on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and such JCP Fund shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of
such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and Indemnitee agree that each JCP Fund is an express third party beneficiary of the terms of this
Section 9(c).] 
 (d) [Except as provided in Section 9(c) above,] in the event of any payment under this
Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the 

  
 8 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 
rights of contribution or recovery of Indemnitee against other persons, and Indemnitee shall take, at the request of the Company, all reasonable action necessary to secure such rights, including
the execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
 10. Exception
to Right of Indemnification. 
 (a) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated
under this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee: 
 (i) for an
accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of any of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of
state statutory law or common law; provided, however, that the exclusion in this Section 10(a)(i) shall not limit Indemnitee’s right to receive from the Company advancement of Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in such a proceeding; or

 (ii) if indemnification is requested under Section 2(a) and it has been adjudicated finally by a
court of competent jurisdiction that, in connection with the subject of the Proceeding out of which the claim for indemnification has arisen, Indemnitee (A) failed to act (1) in good faith and (2) in a manner Indemnitee reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and, (B) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful; provided, that if such
court shall determine, upon application, that, despite such adjudication, but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification hereunder, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
indemnification to the extent such court shall deem proper; or 
 (iii) if indemnification is requested under
Section 2(b) and it has been adjudicated finally by a court of competent jurisdiction that, in connection with the subject of the Proceeding out of which the claim for indemnification has arisen, (A) Indemnitee failed to act
(1) in good faith and (2) in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, or (B) Indemnitee is liable to the corporation and such court has not determined that, despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to payment of Expenses hereunder unless the court in which such Proceeding
was brought shall determine upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such Expenses which such court shall deem proper. 

  
 9 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 (b) Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if
Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors, managers, officers, employees, agents or representatives of the
Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert or
advisor selected by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, manager, officer, employee, agent or representative of the Enterprise shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining
the right to indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the foregoing provisions of this Section 10(b) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. 

(c) The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a
plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of itself adversely affect the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Company or, solely with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. 
 11. No Duplication of Payments. Subject to Section 9(c), the Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee to
the extent Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment under any insurance policy, provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaw (as now or hereafter in effect) or otherwise of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable
hereunder. The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee as a result of the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status with an Enterprise other than the Company shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually
received as indemnification or advancement of Expenses from such other Enterprise. 
 12. Duration of Agreement; Successors
and Assigns; Claims against Indemnitee. 
 (a) All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue
during the period Indemnitee is a director, officer, manager, employee, agent, fiduciary or the like of the Company and/or the applicable Enterprise and shall continue thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any
proceeding commenced under Section 8 hereof) by reason of his Company Status, whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or Expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under
this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise to
all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives. 

  
 10 

 Exhibit 10.20 

 
 (b) No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action
shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s estate, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two (2) years from the date of accrual of
such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the Company shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such two (2)-year period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of
limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter period shall govern. 
 13. Security. To the
extent reasonably requested by Indemnitee, the Company may at any time and from time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit, funded trust or other collateral.
Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the prior written consent of Indemnitee. 

14. Enforcement; Entire Agreement. 
 (a) The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve as a director, officer,
employee or agent of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company. 

(b) Without limitation to the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

15. Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect
any other provision or the effectiveness or validity of any provision in any other jurisdiction, and this Agreement will be reformed, construed, and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been
contained herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee indemnification rights to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. 

16. Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification, termination or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless
executed in writing by all of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing
waiver. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this
Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal law of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of Delaware by citizens of the State of

 Section 5. Shares of Common Stock Subject to the
Plan. 
 5.1. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 hereof, the total number of shares of Common Stock
available for Awards under the Plan shall be [            ] (the “Plan Limit”), [            ] of
which may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards covering no more than [            ] shares of Common Stock may be
awarded to any Participant in any one calendar year. The Plan Limit shall automatically increase on January 1 of each calendar year by an amount equal to the lesser of
[            ]% of the Common Stock outstanding as of December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year or
[            ] shares of Common Stock; provided, that the Board may reduce or eliminate any such automatic increase in the Plan Limit. Effective as of any date on which the Plan
Limit is increased, the Plan Limit as so increased shall be the new Plan Limit for all purposes of the Plan. For purposes of determining the number of shares available for Awards under the Plan, each stock-settled SAR shall count against the Plan
Limit based on the number of shares underlying the exercised portion of such SAR rather than the number of shares issued in settlement of such SAR. Any shares tendered by a Participant in payment of an exercise price for an Award or the tax
liability with respect to an Award, including shares withheld from any such Award, shall not be available for future Awards hereunder. Common Stock awarded under the Plan may be reserved or made available from the Company’s authorized and
unissued Common Stock or from Common Stock reacquired (through open market transactions or otherwise) and held in the Company’s treasury. Any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company through the assumption or substitution of outstanding
grants from an acquired company shall not reduce the shares of Common Stock available for Awards under the Plan. 
 5.2. If any
shares subject to an Award under the Plan are forfeited or such Award otherwise terminates or is settled for any reason whatsoever without an actual distribution of shares to the Participant, any shares counted against the number of shares available
for issuance pursuant to the Plan with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, settlement, or termination, again be available for Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may adopt procedures for the
counting of shares relating to any Award to ensure appropriate counting, avoid double counting, provide for adjustments in any case in which the number of shares actually distributed differs from the number of shares previously counted in connection
with such Award, and if necessary, to comply with applicable law or regulations. 

  
 7 

 Section 6. Awards. Awards may be granted on the terms and conditions set forth
in this Section 6. In addition, the Committee may impose on any Award or the settlement or exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter, such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the
Committee shall determine, including without limitation terms requiring forfeiture of Awards in the event of the termination of a Participant’s employment or other relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the
Committee shall retain full power to accelerate or waive any such additional term or condition as it may have previously imposed (provided that, in any case, any such action is permitted under Section 409A of the Code and, with respect to an
Award intended to satisfy the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception under Section 162(m) of the Code, does not cause such Award to fail to satisfy such exception). The right of a Participant to exercise or receive a
grant or settlement of any Award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such Performance Goals as may be determined by the Committee. Each Award, and the terms and conditions applicable thereto, shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

Company for a specified time period at a fixed exercise price, as provided in the applicable Award Agreement. Options may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options; provided that Incentive Stock Options may only be granted to
Employees. Unless otherwise specifically stated in an Award Agreement, an Award of Options shall be an Award of Non-Qualified Stock Options. The grant of Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(a) Exercise Price. The price per share at which Common Stock may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined by
the Committee and specified in the Award Agreement, but shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant (or 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder). 
 (b) Term of Options. The term of an Option shall be
specified in the Award Agreement, but shall in no event be greater than ten years (or five years in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder). 

(c) Exercise of Option. Each Award Agreement with respect to an Option shall specify the time or times at which an Option may be
exercised in whole or in part and the terms and conditions applicable thereto, including (i) a vesting schedule which may be based upon the passage of time, attainment of Performance Goals or a combination thereof, (ii) whether the
exercise price for an Option shall be paid in cash, with shares of Common Stock or with any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, (iii) the methods of payment, which may include payment through cashless and net exercise arrangements,
to the extent permitted by applicable law and (iv) the methods by which, or the time or times at which, Common Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants upon the exercise of such Option. Payment of the exercise price
shall in all events be made within three days after the date of exercise of an Option. Participants who are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16 

  
 8 

 
of the Exchange Act may elect to pay all or a portion of the exercise price of an Option by directing the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be received upon exercise
of such Option. 
 (d) Termination of Employment or Other Service. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or as
may be determined by the Committee, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, the unvested portion of such Participant’s Options shall cease to vest and shall be forfeited with
no further compensation due the Participant and the vested portion of such Participant’s Options shall remain exercisable by the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary or legal representative, as the case may be, for a period of
(i) 30 days in the event of a termination by the Company or a Subsidiary without Cause, (ii) 180 days in the event of a termination due to death or Disability and (iii) 30 days in the event of the Participant’s voluntary
termination; provided, however, that in no event shall any Option be exercisable after its stated term has expired. All of a Participant’s Options, whether or not vested, shall be forfeited immediately upon such Participant’s termination
by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause with no further compensation due the Participant. 
 (e) Incentive Stock
Options. Each Participant awarded an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the date he or she makes a “disqualifying disposition” (as defined in Section 421(b) of the Code) of
any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option. The Company may, if determined by the Committee and in accordance with procedures established by it, retain possession of any shares acquired pursuant to
the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option as agent for the applicable Participant until the end of any period during which a disqualifying disposition could occur, subject to complying with any instructions from such Participant as to the sale of
such shares. The aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of grant, for Awards granted under the Plan (or any other stock option plan required to be taken into account under Section 422(d) of the Code) that are intended to be
Incentive Stock Options which are first exercisable by the Participant during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. To the extent an Award purporting to be an Incentive Stock Option exceeds the limitation in the previous sentence, the portion
of the Award in excess of such limit shall be a Non-Qualified Option. 
 6.2. Stock Appreciation Rights. An SAR shall
confer on the Participant a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Committee, but
which may never be less than the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The grant of SARs shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 

(a) General. Each Award Agreement with respect to an SAR shall specify the number of SARs granted, the grant price of the SAR,
the time or times at which an SAR may be exercised in whole or in part (including vesting upon the passage of time, the attainment of Performance Goals, or a combination thereof), the method of exercise, method of settlement (in cash, Common Stock
or a combination thereof), method by which Common Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants (if applicable) and any other terms and conditions of any SAR. 

  
 9 

 (b) Termination of Employment or Other Service. Unless otherwise provided in
an Award Agreement or as may be determined by the Committee, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company and its Subsidiaries, the unvested portion of such Participant’s SARs shall cease to vest and
shall be forfeited with no further compensation due the Participant and the vested portion of such Participant’s SARs shall remain exercisable by the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary or legal representative, as the case may be,
for a period of (i) 30 days in the event of a termination by the Company or a Subsidiary without Cause, (ii) 180 days in the event of a termination due to death or Disability and (iii) 30 days in the event of the Participant’s
voluntary termination; provided, however, that in no event shall any SAR be exercisable after its stated term has expired. All of a Participant’s SARs, whether or not vested, shall be forfeited immediately upon such Participant’s
termination by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause with no further compensation due the Participant. 
 (c) Term. The
term of an SAR shall be specified in the Award Agreement, but shall in no event be greater than ten years. 
 6.3. Restricted
Stock. An Award of Restricted Stock is a grant by the Company of a specified number of shares of Common Stock to the Participant, which shares are subject to forfeiture upon the happening of specified events during the Restriction Period. An
Award of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) General. Each Award Agreement
with respect to Restricted Stock shall specify the duration of the Restriction Period, if any, and/or each installment thereof, the conditions under which the Restricted Stock may be forfeited to the Company, and the amount, if any, the Participant
must pay to receive the Restricted Stock. Such restrictions may include a vesting schedule based upon the passage of time, the attainment of Performance Goals or a combination thereof. 

(b) Transferability. During the Restriction Period, if any, the transferability of Restricted Stock shall be prohibited or
restricted in the manner and to the extent prescribed in the applicable Award Agreement. Such restrictions may include, without limitation, rights of repurchase or first refusal in the Company or provisions subjecting the Restricted Stock to a
continuing substantial risk of forfeiture in the hands of any transferee. 
 (c) Shareholder Rights. Unless otherwise
provided in the applicable Award Agreement, during the Restriction Period the Participant shall have all the rights of a shareholder with respect to Restricted Stock, including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends thereon (whether in
cash or shares of Common Stock) and to vote such shares of Restricted Stock. Dividends shall be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying Restricted Stock unless otherwise provided by the Committee (and the Committee may, in its sole
discretion, withhold any cash dividends paid on Restricted Stock until the restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock have lapsed). 

  
 10 

 (d) Termination of Employment or Other Service. Unless otherwise provided in
an Award Agreement or as may be determined by the Committee, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, the unvested portion of each Award of Restricted Stock held by
such Participant shall be forfeited with no further compensation due the Participant and, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for Cause, all of a Participant’s Restricted
Stock, whether or not vested, shall be forfeited immediately with no further compensation due the Participant. 
 6.4.
Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units are solely a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to a Participant under the Plan. Restricted Stock Units do not constitute Common Stock and shall not be treated
as (or as giving rise to) property or as a trust fund of any kind. The right of any Participant in respect of an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. The grant of
Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Restriction Period. Each Award
Agreement with respect to Restricted Stock Units shall specify the duration of the Restriction Period, if any, and/or each installment thereof and the conditions under which such Award may be forfeited to the Company. Such restrictions may include a
vesting schedule based upon the passage of time, the attainment of Performance Goals or a combination thereof. 
 (b)
Termination of Employment or Other Service. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or as may be determined by the Committee, upon a Participant’s termination of employment or other service with the Company and its Subsidiaries
for any reason, the unvested portion of each Award of Restricted Stock Units credited to such Participant shall be forfeited with no compensation due the Participant. 
 (c) Settlement. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, subject to the Participant’s continued employment or other service with the Company or a Subsidiary from the date of grant
through the expiration of the Restriction Period (or applicable portion thereof), the vested portion of an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be settled within 30 days after the expiration of the Restriction Period (or applicable portion
thereof). 
 (d) Shareholder Rights. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to give any Participant rights as
a shareholder with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock Units (including, without limitation, any voting, dividend or derivative or other similar rights). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that amounts
equal to any dividends declared during the Restriction Period on the shares of Common Stock represented by an Award of Restricted Stock Units will be credited to the Participant’s account and deemed to be reinvested in additional Restricted
Stock Units, such additional Restricted Stock Units to be subject to the same forfeiture restrictions as the Restricted Stock Units to which they relate. 
 6.5. Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Participants any type of Award (in addition to those

  
 11 

 
Awards provided in Sections 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 or 6.4 hereof) that is payable in, or valued in whole or in part by reference to, shares of Common Stock, and that is deemed by the Committee to be
consistent with the purposes of the Plan. 
 Section 7. Change in Control. 

7.1. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Board, in its sole
discretion, may take one or more of the following actions with respect to any Awards that are outstanding immediately prior to such Change in Control: (a) accelerate the vesting and, if applicable, exercisability of all outstanding Awards such
that all outstanding Awards are fully vested and, if applicable, exercisable (effective immediately prior to such Change in Control); (b) cancel outstanding Options or SARs in exchange for a cash payment in an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option or SAR as of the date of the Change in Control over the exercise price or grant price, as the case may be, of such portion, provided that, in the
discretion of the Committee, such cash payment may be made in installments payable on the date(s) on which the Option or SAR would have vested had such Option or SAR not been cancelled (subject to the Participant’s continued employment or other
service with the Company or a Subsidiary on each of the date(s) on which the Option or SAR would have vested), provided further that any Option or SAR with an exercise price or grant price, as the case may be, that equals or exceeds the Fair Market
Value of the Common Stock on the date of such Change in Control shall be cancelled with no payment due the Participant; (c) terminate Options or SARs, effective immediately prior to the Change in Control, provided that the Company provides the
Participant an opportunity to exercise such Award within a specified period following the Participant’s receipt of a written notice of such Change in Control and the Company’s intention to terminate such Awards, effective immediately prior
to such Change in Control; (d) require the successor corporation (or its parent), following a Change in Control, to assume outstanding Awards and/or to substitute such Awards with awards involving the common stock of such successor corporation
(or its parent) on terms and conditions necessary to preserve the rights of Participants with respect to such Awards; or (e) take such other actions as the Board deems appropriate to preserve the rights of Participants with respect to their
Awards. The judgment of the Board with respect to any matter referred to in this Section shall be conclusive and binding upon each Participant without the need for any amendment to the Plan. 

7.2. In consideration for the grant of an Award under the Plan, each Participant agrees to take or cause to be taken all such actions as
may be necessary or reasonably requested by the Committee in order to consummate a Change in Control and any related transactions, including, without limitation, executing, acknowledging and delivering the underlying agreements therefor and any
consents, assignments, waivers and other documents or instruments (including without limitation executing any releases) and otherwise cooperating with the Company and its shareholders; and provided further, that if requested by the Committee, the
Participant shall be obligated to become liable in respect of any representations, warranties, covenants, escrows, indemnities or other similar provisions entered into in connection with any such Change in Control and shall be jointly and severally
liable (other than with respect to representations, warranties and covenants relating only to such Participant), whether by purchase price adjustment, payment reduction, indemnity payments or otherwise, in respect thereof. 

  
 12 

 Section 8. Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization. 

8.1. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that the Committee shall determine that any stock dividend,
recapitalization, forward split or reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase or share exchange, extraordinary or unusual cash distribution or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects the
Common Stock such that an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants under the Plan, then the Committee shall proportionately and equitably adjust any or all of (i) the number and kind of
shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards, (ii) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of outstanding Awards, (iii) the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock
available under the Plan, (iv) the limits described in Section 5 of the Plan or (v) the exercise price or grant price relating to any Award or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash payment with respect to any outstanding
Award; provided, however, in each case, that each adjustment shall be made in a manner that does not violate Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder to the extent applicable. 

8.2. In addition, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Committee is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and
conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards, including any Performance Goals, in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, events described in Section 8.1) affecting the Company or any Subsidiary, or
in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all adjustments shall be made in a manner that does not violate Section 409A of the Code and the regulations thereunder to the
extent applicable. 
 Section 9. Restrictive Covenants. In consideration for the grant of an Award under the Plan,
each Participant shall be bound by the restrictive covenants of this Section in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other restrictive covenants applicable to such Participant, including, but not limited to, such restrictive covenants as may be
agreed to in an Award Agreement or in such Participant’s employment agreement, if any. 
 9.1. Confidentiality. The
Participant acknowledges that it is the policy of the Company to maintain as secret and confidential all Confidential Information (as herein defined). The Participant acknowledges that, by reason of his or her employment by the Company, the
Participant will acquire Confidential Information. The Participant recognizes that all such Confidential Information is and shall remain the sole property of the Company, free of any rights of the Participant. The Participant further acknowledges
that the Company has a vested interest in assuring that all such Confidential Information remains secret and confidential. Therefore, in consideration of the grant of an Award under the Plan, the Company’s provision of Confidential Information
to the Participant, and other good and valuable consideration, the Participant agrees that at all times he or she will not, directly or indirectly, use for the benefit of himself or herself or any third party or disclose to any person, firm, company
or other entity (other than the Company or its Affiliates) any Confidential Information without the prior written consent of the Board, except (a) as required in the performance of his or her duties for the Company or its Affiliates or
(b) to the extent that the Participant is required by law to disclose any Confidential Information (provided that in such case, the Participant shall (i) provide the Board with the 

  
 13 

 
earliest notice possible that such disclosure is or may be required, (ii) cooperate with the Company in protecting, to the maximum extent legally permitted, the confidential or proprietary
nature of such Confidential Information and (iii) disclose only that Confidential Information which he or she is determined to be legally required to disclose). The obligations of the Participant under this Section 9 shall survive the
Participant’s termination of employment with the Company. The Participant shall take all actions necessary to protect the integrity of the business plans, customer lists, statistical data and compilations, agreements, contracts, manuals or
other materials, in whatever form, of the Company and its affiliates that contain Confidential Information, and upon the termination of the Participant’s employment, the Participant agrees that all Confidential Information in his or her
possession or under his or her control, directly or indirectly, that is in writing, computer generated, or other tangible form (together with all duplicates thereof) will forthwith be returned to the Company and will not be retained by the
Participant or furnished to any person or entity, either by sample, facsimile, film, audio or video cassette, electronic data, verbal communication or any other means of communication. The Participant agrees that the provisions of this
Section 9 are reasonable and necessary to protect the proprietary rights of the Company and its affiliates in the Confidential Information and its and their trade secrets, goodwill and reputation. 

For purposes of the Plan, the term “Confidential Information” means all confidential, proprietary, or non-public information (in whatever form)
heretofore or hereafter developed or used by the Company or any of its Affiliates, and/or the operations, employees, assets, properties, capitalization, customers, suppliers and distributors of the Company and its Affiliates, including, but not
limited to, customer lists, customer orders, purchase orders, financial data, pricing information and price lists, business plans and market strategies and arrangements, business techniques, all books, records, manuals, advertising materials,
catalogues, correspondence, mailing lists, production data, sales materials and records, purchasing materials and records, personnel records, quality control records and procedures, and all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights and patents, and
applications therefor, all trade secrets, inventions, processes, procedures, research records, market surveys and marketing know-how and other technical papers, irrespective of whether any of the foregoing constitute a trade secret under any
applicable law. 
 9.2. Non-Competition. The Participant agrees that during his employment with the Company and for a
period of twelve (12) months following the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, the Participant will not, directly or indirectly, whether for himself or on behalf of any other person or entity, engage in, own, manage,
operate, advise, provide financing to, control or participate in the ownership, management or control of, or be connected as an officer, employee, partner, director, or otherwise with, or have any financial interest (whether as a stockholder,
director, officer, partner, consultant, proprietor, agent or otherwise) in, or aid or assist anyone else in the conduct of, any business that competes, directly or indirectly, with the Company or any of its Affiliates or is otherwise engaged in
activities competitive with the business(es) of the Company or any of its Affiliates in each and every area where the Company is engaged in business or the sale and/or distribution of products (the “Restricted Area”). The Participant
agrees that the Restrictive Area is reasonable taking into consideration the nature of the Company’s business and the Participant’s role in such business. 

  
 14 

 9.3. Non-Solicitation. The Participant agrees that during his employment with the
Company and for a period of twelve (12) months following the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company, the Participant will not, either directly or indirectly, and whether for himself or on behalf of any other person,
company, firm or other entity; (i) seek to persuade any employee or consultant of the Company or any of its Affiliates to discontinue or diminish his or her status or employment therewith or seek to persuade any employee, former employee, or
exclusive consultant of the Company or any of its Affiliates to become employed or to provide consulting or contract services to a business competitive with the Company or any of its Affiliates; (ii) solicit, employ or engage, or cause to be
solicited, employed, or engaged, any person who is or was employed by the Company or any of its Affiliates at any time during the twenty-four (24) month period prior to the termination of Participant’s employment with the Company; or
(iii) solicit, encourage, or induce any contractor, agent, client, customer, supplier, or the like of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate or diminish its/his relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates, or to refrain
from entering into a relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates, including without limitation any prospective contact, contractor, agent, client, customer, or the like of the Company or any of its Affiliates. 

9.4. Survival of Obligations. The obligations of the Participant under this Section 9 shall survive any termination of the
Participant’s employment with the Company. The Participant and the Company agree and intend that the Participant’s obligations under this Section 9 be tolled during any period that the Participant is in breach of any of the
obligations under this Section 9, so that the Company is provided with the full benefit of the restrictive periods set forth herein. 
 9.5. Remedies. In addition to whatever other rights and remedies the Company may have at equity or in law (including without limitation, the right to seek monetary damages), if the
Participant breaches any of the provisions contained in this Section 9, the Company (a) shall have the right to immediately cancel all Awards granted to the Participant and (b) shall have the right to injunctive relief, without the
requirement to prove actual damages or to post any bond or other security, and obtain the costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees it incurs in enforcing its rights under this Section 9. The Participant acknowledges that his or her breach of
this Section 9 would cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages alone would not provide an adequate remedy for the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that (a) any breach or claimed breach of the provisions
set forth in the Plan will not be a defense to enforcement of the restrictions set forth in Sections 9 and (b) the circumstances of the Participant’s termination of employment with the Company will have no impact on his obligations under
this Section 9. 
 Section 10. Termination and Amendment. 

10.1. Changes to the Plan and Awards. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan without the consent
of the Company’s shareholders or Participants, except that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination shall be subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders if (i) such action would increase
the number of shares subject to the Plan, (ii) such action would decrease the price at which Awards may be granted, or (iii) such shareholder approval is required by any applicable federal, state or foreign law or regulation or the rules
of any stock exchange or automated 

  
 15 

 
quotation system on which the Common Stock may then be listed or quoted, and the Board may otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit such other changes to the Plan to the Company’s
shareholders for approval; provided, however, that without the consent of an affected Participant, no amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination of the Plan may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant
under any outstanding Award unless such modification is necessary to ensure a deduction under Section 162(m) of the Code or to avoid the additional tax described in Section 409A of the Code. 

10.2. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate, any Award theretofore
granted and any Award Agreement relating thereto; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination of any Award may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under such Award
without the consent of an affected Participant unless such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination of any Award is required by applicable law. 
 10.3. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, any Performance Goal applicable to an Award shall not be deemed a fixed contractual term, but shall remain subject to
adjustment by the Committee, in its discretion at any time in view of the Committee’s assessment of the Company’s strategy, performance of comparable companies, and other circumstances, except to the extent that any such adjustment to a
performance condition would adversely affect the status of an Award intended to satisfy the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception under Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 

Section 11. No Right to Award, Employment or Service. No Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director shall have any claim
to be granted any Award under the Plan, and there is no obligation that the terms of Awards be uniform or consistent among Participants. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant any right to be
retained in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary. For purposes of the Plan, a transfer of employment or service between the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed a termination of employment or service; provided, however,
that individuals employed by, or otherwise providing services to, an entity that ceases to be a Subsidiary shall be deemed to have incurred a termination of employment or service, as the case may be, as of the date such entity ceases to be a
Subsidiary unless such individual becomes an employee of, or service provider to, the Company or another Subsidiary as of the date of such cessation. 
 Section 12. Taxes. Each Participant must make appropriate arrangement for the payment of any taxes relating to an Award granted hereunder. The Company or any Subsidiary is authorized to
withhold from any payment relating to an Award under the Plan, including from a distribution of Common Stock or any payroll or other payment to a Participant, amounts of withholding and other taxes due in connection with any transaction involving an
Award, and to take such other action as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company and Participants to satisfy obligations for the payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. This authority shall include
the ability to withhold or receive Common Stock or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a Participant’s tax obligations. Participants who are subject to the reporting requirements of

  
 16 

 
Section 16 of the Exchange Act may elect to direct the Company to withhold shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be received upon the vesting, settlement or exercise of an Award to
satisfy the withholding taxes applicable to such Award. Withholding of taxes in the form of shares of Common Stock with respect to an Award shall not occur at a rate that exceeds the minimum required statutory federal and state withholding rates or
other withholding rates required by applicable foreign law. 
 Section 13. Limits on Transferability; Beneficiaries.
No Award or other right or interest of a Participant under the Plan shall be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to, or in favor of, or subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to, any party, other than the Company or any
Subsidiary, or assigned or transferred by such Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and such Awards and rights shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant or his or her
guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide that Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) or other rights or interests of a Participant granted pursuant to the Plan be
transferable, without consideration, to immediate family members (i.e., children, grandchildren or spouse), to trusts for the benefit of such immediate family members and to partnerships in which such family members are the only partners. The
Committee may attach to such transferability feature such terms and conditions as it deems advisable. In addition, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary (which may be a natural person or a trust) to
exercise the rights of the Participant, and to receive any distribution, with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant. A beneficiary, guardian, legal representative or other Person claiming any rights under the Plan from or through
any Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to such Participant, except as otherwise determined by the Committee, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by
the Committee. 
 Section 14. Foreign Nationals. Awards may be granted to Employees who are foreign nationals or
employed outside the United States or both, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable to further the purpose of the Plan. 

Section 15. Securities Law Requirements. 
 15.1. No shares of Common Stock may be issued hereunder if the Company shall at any time determine that to do so would (i) violate the listing requirements of an applicable securities exchange, or
adversely affect the registration or qualification of the Company’s Common Stock under any state or federal law, or (ii) require the consent or approval of any regulatory body or the satisfaction of withholding tax or other withholding
liabilities. In any of the events referred to in clause (i) or clause (ii) above, the issuance of such shares shall be suspended and shall not be effective unless and until such withholding, listing, registration, qualifications or
approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company in its sole discretion, notwithstanding any termination of any Award or any portion of any Award during the period when issuance has been suspended.

 15.2. The Committee may require, as a condition to the issuance of shares hereunder, representations, warranties and
agreements to the effect that such shares are being 

  
 17 

 
purchased or acquired by the Participant for investment only and without any present intention to sell or otherwise distribute such shares and that the Participant will not dispose of such shares
in transactions which, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, would violate the registration provisions of the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder. 
 Section 16. Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and all Awards are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code and all regulations, guidance, compliance
programs and other interpretative authority thereunder, and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event any Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the
Committee may, in its sole discretion and without a Participant’s prior consent, amend the Plan and/or Awards, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions as deemed appropriate by the Committee to (i) exempt the Plan and/or
any Award from the application of Section 409A of the Code, (ii) preserve the intended tax treatment of any such Award or (iii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. In the event that a Participant is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and a payment or benefit provided for under the Plan would be subject to additional tax under Section 409A of the Code if such payment or benefit is paid within
six (6) months after such Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), then such payment or benefit shall not be paid (or commence) during the six (6) month period immediately following
such Participant’s separation from service except as provided in the immediately following sentence. In such an event, any payments or benefits that would otherwise have been made or provided during such six (6) month period and which
would have incurred such additional tax under Section 409A of the Code shall instead be paid to the Participant in a lump-sum cash payment, without interest, on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month following such
Participant’s separation from service or (ii) the tenth business day following such Participant’s death. 
 Section 17. Termination. Unless earlier terminated, the Plan shall terminate on the 10th anniversary of its approval by the Board, and no Awards under the Plan shall thereafter be granted. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the terms of the Plan shall continue to govern any Award that is outstanding on or after the termination of the Plan. 
 Section 18. Fractional Shares. The Company will not be required to issue any fractional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Plan. The Committee may provide for the elimination of fractions
and settlement of such fractional shares of Common Stock in cash. 
 Section 19. Discretion. In exercising, or
declining to exercise, any grant of authority or discretion hereunder, the Committee may consider or ignore such factors or circumstances and may accord such weight to such factors and circumstances as the Committee alone and in its sole judgment
deems appropriate and without regard to the effect such exercise, or declining to exercise such grant of authority or discretion, would have upon the affected Participant, any other Participant, any Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, the
Company, any Subsidiary, any Affiliate of the Company, any shareholder or any other Person. 
 Section 20. Governing
Law. The Plan and any Award Agreements entered into thereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal law of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts entered into and to be performed entirely within the State
of 

  
 18 

 
Delaware by citizens of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of laws provisions or any other principles or rules that would require or permit the application of the laws of
any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 21. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. To the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, by accepting an Award under the Plan, each Participant hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court is
unavailable, any state or federal court located in Wilmington, Delaware, as well as to the appellate jurisdiction of all courts to which an appeal may be taken from such courts, in any action, suit, proceeding or claim arising out of or relating to
the Plan or any Award Agreement, (ii) agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, suit, proceeding or claim shall be brought, heard and determined exclusively in such courts, (iii) agrees that such courts have a reasonable
relation to the Plan and the Award Agreements; (iv) waives and agrees not to assert any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, suit, proceeding or claim arising out of or relating to the Plan or any
Award Agreement in any such court, (v) consents to the service of any and all process in any such action, suit, proceeding or claim by the mailing of copies of such process to such Person at its address specified herein or in any other manner
permitted by applicable law, (vi) waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any and all rights to a trial by jury in connection with any such action, suit, proceeding or claim, and (vii) agrees that a final judgment in any
such action, suit, proceeding or claim shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. 
 Section 22. Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective upon the Effective Date, and no Award shall become exercisable, realizable or vested prior to the Effective Date. 

*        *        *      
  *        * 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused the Plan to be executed as of the
date set forth below.
