AGREEMENT 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the respective covenants and agreements set forth below, the Parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	Employment. 

 (a) General. Effective as of the Effective Date, the Company
shall employ Executive and Executive shall remain in the employ of the Company, for the period and in the position set forth in this Section 1, and subject to the other terms and conditions herein provided. 

(b) Employment Term. The term of employment under this Agreement (the “Term”) shall be for the period beginning on the
Effective Date, and ending on the second anniversary thereof, subject to earlier termination as provided in Section 3. The Term shall automatically renew for additional twelve (12) month periods unless no later than sixty
(60) days prior to the end of the applicable Term either party gives written notice of non-renewal (“Notice of Non-Renewal”) to the other, in which case Executive’s employment will terminate at the end of the
then-applicable Term, subject to earlier termination as provided in Section 3. 
 (c) Position and Duties. Executive
shall serve as Senior Vice President and General Counsel of the Company with such responsibilities, duties and authority normally associated with such position and as may from time to time be assigned to Executive by the Chief Executive Officer (the
“CEO”) or by the Board of Directors of Parent or its authorized committee (in either case, the “Board”). Executive shall devote substantially all of Executive’s working time and efforts to the business and
affairs of the Company (which shall include service to its affiliates, if applicable) and shall not engage in outside business activities (including serving on outside boards or committees) without the consent of the CEO or the Board, provided that
Executive shall be permitted to (i) manage Executive’s personal, financial and legal affairs, (ii) participate in trade associations, (iii) serve on the board of directors of not-for-profit or tax-exempt charitable organizations
and (iv) engage in reasonable levels of non-litigation pro bono legal work, in each case, subject to compliance with this Agreement and provided that such activities do not materially interfere with Executive’s performance of
Executive’s duties and responsibilities hereunder. Executive agrees to observe and comply with the rules and policies of the Company as adopted by the Company from time to time, in each case as amended from time to time, as set forth in
writing, and as delivered or made available to Executive (each, a “Policy”). 

	2.	Compensation and Related Matters. 

 (a) Annual Base Salary. During the
Term, Executive shall receive a base salary at a rate of $350,000 per annum, which shall be paid in accordance with the customary payroll practices of the Company and shall be pro-rated for partial years of employment. Such Annual Base Salary shall
be reviewed (and may be adjusted) from time to time by the Board (such annual base salary, as it may be adjusted from time to time, the “Annual Base Salary”). 

(b) Bonus. During the Term, Executive will be eligible to participate in an annual incentive program established by the Board.
Executive’s annual incentive compensation under such incentive program (the “Annual Bonus”) shall be targeted at 60% of his Annual Base Salary (the “Target Bonus”) with the opportunity to earn up to 120% of his
Annual Base Salary. The Annual Bonus payable under the incentive program shall be based on the achievement of performance goals to be determined by the Board and shall not be pro-rated for fiscal year 2013. The payment of any Annual Bonus pursuant
to the incentive program shall be subject to Executive’s continued employment with the Company through the date of payment, except as otherwise provided in Section 4(b). 

(c) Equity Compensation. During the Term, Executive will receive an option (the “Option”) to purchase equity
securities or equity equivalents of Flash Bermuda Co. Ltd. (the “Parent”), if existent, the terms and conditions of which shall be governed exclusively by a separate agreement that will be entered into between Executive and Parent
(the “Option Agreement”) and an equity incentive plan that will be adopted by Parent (the “Equity Plan”). It is expected that the Option will provide Executive with the opportunity to purchase approximately 294,000
shares of common stock, representing 2.5% of the initial equity pool established for Parent’s (including its subsidiaries) service providers. The Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan and the Option Agreement,
including vesting and other terms and conditions that will be established in the Parent’s discretion. 
 (d) Benefits. During
the Term, Executive shall be eligible to participate in employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements of the Company (including medical, dental and 401(k) plans), consistent with the terms thereof and as such plans, programs and arrangements may
be amended from time to time. In no event shall Executive be eligible to participate in any severance plan or program of the Company, except as set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement. 

(e) Vacation. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to paid personal leave in accordance with the Company’s Policies. Any
vacation shall be taken at the reasonable and mutual convenience of the Company and Executive. 
 (f) Business and Living Expenses.
During the Term, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable travel and other business expenses incurred by Executive in the performance of Executive’s duties to the Company in accordance with the Company’s expense
reimbursement Policy. The Company shall reimburse Executive for reasonable temporary housing expenses, reasonable travel expenses to and from his existing residence, and reasonable and customary relocation expenses incurred in calendar year 2013, in
each case as reasonably agreed between Executive and the CEO, including any closing costs on the purchase of a new residence in the Philadelphia, PA area. 

(g) Key Person Insurance. At any time during the Term, the Company shall have the right to insure the life of Executive for the
Company’s sole benefit. The Company shall have the right to determine the amount of insurance and the type of policy. Executive shall reasonably cooperate with the 

  
 2 

 
Company in obtaining such insurance by submitting to physical examinations, by supplying all information reasonably required by any insurance carrier, and by executing all necessary documents
reasonably required by any insurance carrier, provided that any information provided to an insurance company or broker shall not be provided to the Company without the prior written authorization of Executive. Executive shall incur no financial
obligation by executing any required document, and shall have no interest in any such policy. 
  

	3.	Termination. 

 Executive’s employment hereunder may be terminated by the Company or
Executive, as applicable, without any breach of this Agreement under the following circumstances: 
 (a) Circumstances. 

(i) Death. Executive’s employment hereunder shall terminate upon Executive’s death. 

(ii) Disability. If Executive has incurred a Disability, as defined below, the Company may terminate Executive’s
employment. 
 (iii) Termination for Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause, as
defined below. 
 (iv) Termination without Cause. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment without Cause,
which shall include a termination of Executive as a result of the Company not renewing the Term pursuant to Section 1. 

(v) Resignation from the Company for Good Reason. Executive may resign Executive’s employment with the Company for
Good Reason, as defined below. 
 (vi) Resignation from the Company Without Good Reason. Executive may resign
Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason other than Good Reason or for no reason, which shall include a termination of Executive as a result of Executive not renewing the Term pursuant to Section 1. 

(b) Notice of Termination. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive under this Section 3
(other than termination pursuant to paragraph (a)(i)) shall be communicated by a written notice to the other party hereto (i) indicating the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, (ii) setting forth in reasonable
detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, if applicable, and (iii) specifying a Date of Termination which, if submitted by Executive, shall be
at least forty-five (45) days following the date of such notice (a “Notice of Termination”); provided, however, that in the event that Executive delivers a Notice of Termination to the Company, the Company may, in its
sole discretion, change the Date of Termination to any date that occurs following the date of Company’s receipt of such Notice of Termination and is prior to the date specified in such Notice of Termination. A Notice of Termination submitted by
the Company may provide for a Date of Termination on the date Executive receives the Notice of Termination, or any date thereafter elected by the Company in its sole discretion. The failure by the Company or Executive to set forth in the Notice of
Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Cause or Good Reason shall not waive any right of such Party hereunder or preclude such Party from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing such Party’s rights
hereunder. 

  
 3 

 (c) Company Obligations upon Termination. Upon termination of Executive’s employment
pursuant to any of the circumstances listed in Section 3, Executive (or Executive’s estate) shall be entitled to receive the sum of: (i) the portion of Executive’s Annual Base Salary earned through the Date of Termination,
but not yet paid to Executive; (ii) any expenses owed to Executive pursuant to Section 2(f); and (iii) any amount accrued and arising from Executive’s participation in, or benefits accrued under any employee benefit plans,
programs or arrangements, which amounts shall be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of such employee benefit plans, programs or arrangements (collectively, the “Company Arrangements”). Except as otherwise expressly
required by law (e.g., COBRA) or as specifically provided herein, all of Executive’s rights to salary, severance, benefits, bonuses and other compensatory amounts hereunder (if any) shall cease upon the termination of Executive’s
employment hereunder. In the event that Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for any reason, Executive’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be to receive the payments and benefits described in this Section 3(c) or
Section 4, as applicable. 
 (d) Deemed Resignation. Upon termination of Executive’s employment for any reason,
Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all offices and directorships, if any, then held with the Company, Parent or any of their affiliates. 
  

	4.	Severance Payments.

defined below), and not revoking, a release of claims substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A to this Agreement (the “Release”), and Executive’s continued compliance with Sections 5 and 6, Executive shall
receive, in addition to payments and benefits set forth in Section 3(c), the following: 
 (A) an amount in cash equal
to 1.0 times the Annual Base Salary, payable in the form of salary continuation in regular installments over the 12-month period following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service (the “Severance Period”) in accordance
with the Company’s normal payroll practices; 
 (B) an amount of cash equal to the Target Bonus, multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months the Executive was employed during the year in which the Date of Termination occurs and the denominator of which is 12, which shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum on the First Payment
Date (as defined below); and 
 (C) to the extent unpaid as of the Date of Termination, an amount of cash equal to any Annual
Bonus earned by Executive for the Company’s fiscal year prior to the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs, as 

  
 4 

 
determined by the Board in its discretion based upon actual performance achieved (but which at minimum shall be Target Bonus, unless members of senior management generally receive less than
target bonus payouts for the applicable year, in which case the payment to the Executive under this subparagraph (C) may be at the average of the bonus payout levels provided generally to members of senior management, as reasonably determined
by the Company), which shall be paid to Executive in the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs when bonuses for such prior fiscal year are paid in the ordinary course to actively employed senior executives of the Company. 

(c) Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4(b), in the event Executive’s employment
terminates without Cause pursuant to Section 3(a)(iv), or pursuant to Section 3(a)(v) due to Executive’s resignation for Good Reason, in either case, within one year following the date of a Change in Control, with
respect to Section 4(b)(i)(A), the cash amount shall be calculated using 2.0 times the Annual Base Salary (instead of 1.0 times) and, in lieu of the payment in Section 4(b)(i)(B), Executive shall receive an amount in cash
equal to 2.0 times Target Bonus, payable in the form of salary continuation in regular installments over the 24-month period following the date of Executive’s Separation from Service in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll
practices, subject to the Release requirement above. 
 (d) Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
provisions of Sections 5 through 9 and Section 11 will survive the termination of Executive’s employment and the expiration or termination of the Term. 

 

	5.	Competition. 

 Executive acknowledges that Executive has been provided with
Confidential Information (as defined below) and, during the Term, the Company from time to time will provide Executive with access to Confidential Information. Ancillary to the rights provided to Executive as set forth in this Agreement and the
Company’s provision of Confidential Information, and Executive’s agreements regarding the use of same, in order to protect the value of any Confidential Information, the Company and Executive agree to the following provisions against
unfair competition, which Executive acknowledges represent a fair balance of the Company’s rights to protect its business and Executive’s right to pursue employment: 

(a) Executive shall not, at any time during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the date 12-months following the Date of
Termination, directly or indirectly engage in, have any equity interest in, interview for a potential employment or consulting relationship with or manage, provide services to or operate any person, firm, corporation, partnership or business
(whether as director, officer, employee, agent, representative, partner, security holder, consultant or otherwise) that engages in any business which competes with any portion of the Business (as defined below) of the Company anywhere in the world.
Nothing herein shall prohibit Executive from practicing law or being a passive owner of not more than 2% of the outstanding equity interest in any entity that is publicly traded, so long as Executive has no active participation in the business of
such entity. 
 (b) Executive shall not, at any time during the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending on the date 18-months
following the Date of Termination, directly or indirectly (i) solicit, divert or take away any customers, clients, or business acquisition or other business opportunity of the Company, (ii) contact or solicit, with respect to hiring, or
hire any employee of the Company or any person employed by the Company at any time during the 12-month period immediately preceding the Date of Termination, (iii) induce or otherwise counsel, advise or
encourage any employee of the Company to leave the employment of the Company, or (iv) induce any distributor, representative or agent of the Company to terminate or modify its relationship with the Company. 

  
 5 

 (c) In the event the terms of this Section 5 shall be determined by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, it will be interpreted to extend only over the
maximum period of time for which it may be enforceable, over the maximum geographical area as to which it may be enforceable, or to the maximum extent in all other respects as to which it may be enforceable, all as determined by such court in such
action. 
 (d) As used in this Section 5, (i) the term “Company” shall include the Company and its direct
and indirect parents and subsidiaries and (ii) the term “Business” shall mean the business of the Company and shall include the manufacturing and sale of automotive paints and related products, as such business may be expanded
or altered by the Company during the Term. 
 (e) Executive represents that Executive’s employment by the Company does not and will not
breach any agreement with any former employer, including any non-compete agreement or any agreement to keep in confidence or refrain from using information acquired by Executive prior to Executive’s employment by the Company. During
Executive’s employment by the Company, Executive agrees that Executive will not violate any non-solicitation agreements that Executive entered into with any former employer or improperly make use of, or disclose, any information or trade
secrets of any former employer or other third party, nor will Executive bring onto the premises of the Company or its affiliates or use any unpublished documents or any property belonging to any former employer or other third party, in violation of
any lawful agreements with that former employer or third party. 
 (f) Each Party (which, in the case of the Company, shall mean its
officers and the members of the Board) agrees, during the Term and following the Date of Termination, to refrain from Disparaging (as defined below) the other Party and its affiliates, including, in the case of the Company, any of its services,
technologies or practices, or any of its directors, officers, agents, representatives or stockholders, either orally or in writing. Nothing in this paragraph shall preclude any Party from making truthful statements that are reasonably necessary to
comply with applicable law, regulation or legal process, or to defend or enforce a Party’s rights under this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disparaging” means remarks, comments or statements, whether written or oral, that
impugn the character, integrity, reputation or abilities of the Person being disparaged. 
  

	6.	Nondisclosure of Proprietary Information. 

 (a) Except in connection with the
faithful performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or pursuant to Section 6(c) and (e), Executive shall, in perpetuity, maintain in confidence and shall not directly, indirectly or otherwise, use, disseminate, disclose or publish,
or use for Executive’s benefit or the benefit of any person, firm, corporation or other entity (other than the Company) any confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of or relating to the Company (including, without limitation,
business plans, business strategies and methods, acquisition targets, intellectual property in the form of patents, trademarks and copyrights and applications therefor, ideas, inventions, works, discoveries, improvements, information, documents,
formulae, practices, processes, methods, developments, source code, modifications, technology, techniques, data, programs, other know-how or materials, owned, developed or possessed by the Company, whether in tangible or intangible form, information
with respect to the Company’s operations, processes, products, inventions, business practices, finances, principals, vendors, suppliers, customers, potential customers, marketing methods, costs, prices, contractual relationships, regulatory
status, prospects and compensation paid to employees or other terms of employment) (collectively, the “Confidential Information”), or deliver to any person, firm, corporation or other entity any document, record, notebook, computer
program or similar repository of or containing any such Confidential Information. The Parties hereby stipulate and agree that, as between them, any item of Confidential Information is important, material and confidential and affects the successful
conduct of the 

  
 6 

 
businesses of the Company (and any successor or assignee of the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information that has been published in a
form generally available to the public or is publicly available or has become public knowledge prior to the date Executive proposes to disclose or use such information, provided, that such publishing or public availability or knowledge of the
Confidential Information shall not have resulted from Executive directly or indirectly breaching Executive’s obligations under this Section 6(a) or any other similar provision by which Executive is bound, or from any third-party
breaching a provision similar to that found under this Section 6(a). For the purposes of the previous sentence, Confidential Information will not be deemed to have been published or otherwise disclosed merely because individual portions
of the information have been separately published, but only if material features comprising such information have been published or become publicly available. 

(b) Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all
correspondence, drawings, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, programs, plans, proposals, financial documents, or any other documents or property concerning the Company’s customers, business plans, marketing strategies, products,
property or processes. 
 (c) Executive may respond to a lawful and valid subpoena or other legal process but shall give the Company the
earliest possible notice thereof, shall, as much in advance of the return date as possible, make available to the Company and its counsel the documents and other information sought and shall assist such counsel at Company’s expense in resisting
or otherwise responding to such process, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable laws or rules. 
 (d) As used in this
Section 6 and Section 7, the term “Company” shall include the Company and its direct and indirect parents and subsidiaries. 

(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from (i) disclosing information and documents when required by law, subpoena or
court order (subject to the requirements of Section 6(c) above), (ii) disclosing information and documents to Executive’s attorney, financial or tax adviser for the purpose of securing legal, financial or tax advice,
(iii) disclosing Executive’s post-employment restrictions in this Agreement in confidence to any potential new employer, or (iv) retaining, at any time, Executive’s personal correspondence, Executive’s personal contacts and
documents related to Executive’s own personal benefits, entitlements and obligations.

	7.	Inventions. 

 All rights to discoveries, inventions, improvements and innovations
(including all data and records pertaining thereto) related to the business of the Company, whether or not patentable, copyrightable, registrable as a trademark, or reduced to writing, that Executive may discover, invent or originate during the
Term, either alone or with others and whether or not during working hours or by the use of the facilities of the Company (“Inventions”), shall be the exclusive property of the Company. Executive shall promptly disclose all
Inventions to the Company, shall execute at the request of the Company any assignments or other documents the Company may deem reasonably necessary to protect or perfect its rights therein, and shall assist the Company, upon reasonable request and
at the Company’s expense, in obtaining, defending and enforcing the Company’s rights therein. Executive hereby appoints the Company as Executive’s attorney-in-fact to execute on Executive’s
behalf any assignments or other documents reasonably deemed necessary by the Company to protect or perfect its rights to any Inventions. 
  

	8.	Injunctive Relief. 

 It is recognized and acknowledged by Executive that a breach
of the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7 will cause irreparable damage to Company and its goodwill, the exact amount of which will be difficult or impossible to ascertain, and that the remedies at law for any such breach will be
inadequate. Accordingly, Executive agrees that in the event of a breach of any of the covenants contained in Sections 5, 6 and 7, in addition to any other remedy which may be available at law or in equity, the Company will be entitled to
specific performance and injunctive relief without the requirement to post bond. 
  

	9.	Assignment and Successors. 

 The Company may assign its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to any of its affiliates or to any successor to all or substantially all of the business or the assets of the Company (by merger or otherwise), and may assign or encumber this Agreement and its rights hereunder as security for
indebtedness of the Company and its affiliates. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, Executive and their respective successors, assigns, personnel and legal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs,
distributees, devisees, and legatees, as applicable. None of Executive’s rights or obligations may be assigned or transferred by Executive, other than Executive’s rights to payments hereunder, which may be transferred only by will or
operation of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall be entitled, to the extent permitted under applicable law and applicable Company Arrangements, to select and change a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive compensation hereunder
following Executive’s death by giving written notice thereof to the Company. 
  

	10.	Certain Definitions. 

 (a) Cause. The Company shall have “Cause”
to terminate Executive’s employment hereunder upon: 
 (i) Executive’s failure to (A) substantially perform
his duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from Executive’s Disability) or (B) comply with, in any material respect, any of the Company’s Policies; 

(ii) the Board’s determination that Executive failed in any material respect to carry out or comply with any lawful and
reasonable directive of the Board; 

  
 8 

 (iii) Executive’s breach of a material provision of this Agreement; 

(iv) Executive’s conviction, plea of no contest, plea of nolo contendere, or imposition of unadjudicated probation
for any felony or crime involving moral turpitude; 
 (v) Executive’s unlawful use (including being under the influence)
or possession of illegal drugs on the Company’s (or any of its affiliate’s) premises or while performing Executive’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement; or 

(vi) Executive’s commission of an act of fraud, embezzlement, misappropriation, willful misconduct, or breach of fiduciary
duty against the Company or any of its affiliates. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and
(iii) above, no Cause will have occurred unless and until the Company has: (a) provided Executive written notice describing the applicable facts and circumstances underlying such finding of Cause; and (b) provided Executive with an
opportunity to cure the same within 30 days after the receipt of such notice; provided, however, that Executive shall be provided only one cure opportunity per category of Cause event in any rolling six (6) month period. If the Executive fails
to cure the same within such 30 days, then “Cause” shall be deemed to have occurred as of the expiration of the 30-day cure period. 

(b) Change in Control. “Change in Control” shall mean (i) the sale, in one transaction or series of related transactions
(including one or more stock sales, mergers, business combinations, recapitalizations, consolidations, reorganizations, restructurings or similar transactions), of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Parent and its subsidiaries to
any person (other than Carlyle Partners V Cayman, L.P., any affiliate of Carlyle Partners V Cayman, L.P. or any other private equity investment fund(s) managed by T.C. Group, LLC or any of its affiliates) or (ii) any transaction or series of
related transactions resulting in any person (other than Carlyle Partners V Cayman, L.P., any affiliate of Carlyle Partners V Cayman, L.P. or any other private equity investment fund(s) managed by T.C. Group, LLC or any of its affiliates) acquiring
at least 50% of the aggregate voting power of all outstanding voting securities of Parent or its successor. 
 (c) Date of
Termination. “Date of Termination” shall mean (i) if Executive’s employment is terminated by Executive’s death, the date of Executive’s death; (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated pursuant to
Section 3(a)(ii) – (vi) either the date indicated in the Notice of Termination or the date specified by the Company pursuant to Section 3(b), whichever is earlier. 

(d) Disability. “Disability” shall mean, at any time the Company or any of its affiliates sponsors a long-term disability
plan for the Company’s employees, “disability” as defined in such long-term disability plan for the purpose of determining a participant’s eligibility for benefits, provided, however, if the long-term disability plan contains
multiple definitions of disability, “Disability” shall refer to that definition of disability which, if Executive qualified for such disability benefits, would provide coverage for the longest period of time. The determination of whether
Executive has a Disability shall be made by the person or persons required to make disability determinations under the long-term disability plan. At any time the Company does not sponsor a long-term disability plan for its employees, Disability
shall mean Executive’s inability to perform, with or without reasonable accommodation, the essential functions of Executive’s position hereunder for a total of three months during any six-month period as a result of incapacity due to
mental or physical illness as determined by a physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to Executive or Executive’s legal representative, with such agreement as to acceptability not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Any refusal by Executive to submit to a medical examination for the purpose of determining Disability shall be deemed to constitute conclusive evidence of Executive’s Disability. 

  
 9 

 (e) Good Reason. For the sole purpose of determining Executive’s right to severance
payments as described above, Executive’s resignation will be for “Good Reason” if Executive resigns within ninety days after any of the following events, unless Executive consents to the applicable event: (i) a decrease in
Executive’s annual base salary, other than a reduction in annual base salary of less than 10% that is implemented in connection with a contemporaneous reduction in annual base salaries affecting other senior executives of the Company,
(ii) a material decrease in Executive’s authority or areas of responsibility as are commensurate with such Executive’s title or position (other than in connection with a corporate transaction where Executive continues to hold the
position referenced in Section 1(c) above with respect to the Company’s business, substantially as such business exists prior to the date of consummation of such corporate transaction, but does not hold such position with respect to the
successor corporation), or (iii) the relocation of Executive’s primary office to a location more than 35 miles from the Company’s then current headquarters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Good Reason will have occurred unless and
until Executive has: (a) provided the Company, within 60 days of Executive’s knowledge of the occurrence of the facts and circumstances underlying the Good Reason event, written-notice stating with specificity the applicable facts and
circumstances underlying such finding of Good Reason; and (b) provided the Company with an opportunity to cure the same within 30 days after the receipt of such notice. 

(f) Person. “Person” shall mean any individual, firm, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, incorporated or
unincorporated association, joint venture, joint stock company, trust, governmental authority or other entity of any kind. 
  

	11.	Miscellaneous Provisions.

be governed, construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with its express terms, and otherwise in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware without reference to the principles of conflicts of law of the State of Delaware or
any other jurisdiction, and where applicable, the laws of the United States.

(f) Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or terminated except by an instrument in writing, signed by
Executive and a duly authorized officer of Company. By an instrument in writing similarly executed, Executive or a duly authorized officer of the Company may waive compliance by the other Party with any specifically identified provision of this
Agreement that such other Party was or is obligated to comply with or perform; provided, however, that such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any other or subsequent failure. No failure to
exercise and no delay in exercising any right, remedy, or power hereunder preclude any other or further exercise of any other right, remedy, or power provided herein or by law or in equity. 

(g) No Inconsistent Actions. The Parties hereto shall not voluntarily undertake or fail to undertake any action or course of action
inconsistent with the provisions or essential intent of this Agreement. Furthermore, it is the intent of the Parties hereto to act in a fair and reasonable manner with respect to the interpretation and application of the provisions of this
Agreement. 

  
 11 

 (h) Construction. This Agreement shall be deemed drafted equally by both the Parties. Its
language shall be construed as a whole and according to its fair meaning. Any presumption or principle that the language is to be construed against any Party shall not apply. The headings in this Agreement are only for convenience and are not
intended to affect construction or interpretation. Any references to paragraphs, subparagraphs, sections or subsections are to those parts of this Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary. Also, unless the context clearly
indicates to the contrary, (a) the plural includes the singular and the singular includes the plural; (b) “and” and “or” are each used both conjunctively and disjunctively; (c) “any,” “all,”
“each,” or “every” means “any and all,” and “each and every”; (d) “includes” and “including” are each “without limitation”; (e) “herein,” “hereof,”
“hereunder” and other similar compounds of the word “here” refer to the entire Agreement and not to any particular paragraph, subparagraph, section or subsection; and (f) all pronouns and any variations thereof shall be
deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural as the identity of the entities or persons referred to may require. 

(i) Arbitration. Any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, shall be settled solely and
exclusively by a binding arbitration process administered by JAMS/Endispute in Wilmington, Delaware. Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the then-existing JAMS/Endispute Rules of Practice and Procedure, with the following
exceptions if in conflict: (a) one arbitrator who is a retired judge shall be chosen by JAMS/Endispute; (b) each Party to the arbitration will pay one-half of the expenses and fees of the arbitrator, together with other expenses of the
arbitration incurred or approved by the arbitrator; and (c) arbitration may proceed in the absence of any Party if written notice (pursuant to the JAMS/Endispute rules and regulations) of the proceedings has been given to such Party. Each Party
shall bear its own attorneys fees and expenses; provided that the arbitrator may assess the prevailing Party’s fees and costs against the non-prevailing Party as part of the arbitrator’s award. The Parties agree to abide by all decisions
and awards rendered in such proceedings. Such decisions and awards rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and conclusive. All such controversies, claims or disputes shall be settled in this manner in lieu of any action at law or equity; provided,
however, that nothing in this subsection shall be construed as precluding the bringing an action for injunctive relief or specific performance as provided in this Agreement. This dispute resolution process and any arbitration hereunder shall be
confidential and neither any Party nor the neutral arbitrator shall disclose the existence, contents or results of such process without the prior written consent of all Parties, except where necessary or compelled in a Court to enforce this
arbitration provision or an award from such arbitration or otherwise in a legal proceeding. If JAMS/Endispute no longer exists or is otherwise unavailable, the Parties agree that the American Arbitration Association (“AAA’) shall
administer the arbitration in accordance with its then-existing rules as modified by this subsection. In such event, all references herein to JAMS/Endispute shall mean AAA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive and the Company each have the right
to resolve any issue or dispute over intellectual property rights by Court action instead of arbitration. 
 (j) Enforcement. If any
provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severable; this Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a portion of this Agreement; and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provision or by its severance from this Agreement. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision as may be possible and be legal, valid and enforceable. 
 (k) Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to
withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement any federal, state, local or foreign withholding or other taxes or charges which the Company is required to withhold. The Company shall be entitled to rely on an opinion of counsel if any
questions as to the amount or requirement of withholding shall arise. 

  
 12 

 (l) Section 409A. 

(i) General. The intent of the Parties is that the payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with or be exempt
from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance promulgated thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”) and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall
be interpreted to be in compliance therewith. 
 (ii) Separation from Service. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement that is considered nonqualified deferred compensation under Section 409A and is designated under this Agreement as payable upon Executive’s termination of
employment shall be payable only upon Executive’s “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”) and, except as provided below, any such compensation
or benefits described in Section 4(b) shall not be paid, or, in the case of installments, shall not commence payment, until the thirtieth (30th) day following Executive’s Separation from Service (the “First Payment
Date”). Any installment payments that would have been made to Executive during the thirty (30) day period immediately following Executive’s Separation from Service but for the preceding sentence shall be paid to Executive on the
First Payment Date and the remaining payments shall be made as provided in this Agreement. 
 (iii) Specified
Employee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is deemed by the Company at the time of Executive’s Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the
extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of Executive’s benefits shall not be
provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (i) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s Separation from Service with the Company or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. Upon the first
business day following the expiration of the applicable Section 409A period, all payments deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive (or Executive’s estate or beneficiaries), and any remaining
payments due to Executive under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. 
 (iv) Expense Reimbursements.
To the extent that any reimbursements under this Agreement are subject to Section 409A, any such reimbursements payable to Executive shall be paid to Executive no later than December 31 of the year following the year in which the
expense was incurred; provided, that Executive submits Executive’s reimbursement request promptly following the date the expense is incurred, the amount of expenses reimbursed in one year shall not affect the amount eligible for reimbursement
in any subsequent year, other than medical expenses referred to in Section 105(b) of the Code, and Executive’s right to reimbursement under this Agreement will not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 

(v) Installments. Executive’s right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement, including without
limitation any continuation salary payments that are payable on Company payroll dates, shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate
and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A, no payment hereunder shall be accelerated or deferred unless such acceleration or deferral would not result in additional tax or
interest pursuant to Section 409A.

 Exhibit 10.54 

AXALTA COATING SYSTEMS BERMUDA CO., LTD. 

2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
  

	 	1.	Purpose.  

 The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the
Company’s shareholders by enhancing the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing such persons with equity ownership opportunities and
thereby better aligning the interests of such persons with those of the Company’s shareholders. Capitalized terms used in the Plan are defined in Section 11 below. 
  

	 	2.	Eligibility.  

 Service Providers are eligible to be granted Awards under the
Plan, subject to the limitations described herein. 
  

	 	3.	Administration and Delegation. 

 (a) Administration. The Plan will be
administered by the Administrator. The Administrator shall have authority to determine which Service Providers will receive Awards, to grant Awards and to set all terms and conditions of Awards (including, but not limited to, vesting, exercise and
forfeiture provisions). In addition, the Administrator shall have the authority to take all actions and make all determinations contemplated by the Plan and to adopt, amend and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to
the Plan as it shall deem advisable. The Administrator may correct any defect or ambiguity, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or appropriate to carry
the Plan and any Awards into effect, as determined by the Administrator. The Administrator shall make all determinations under the Plan in the Administrator’s sole discretion and all such determinations shall be final and binding on all persons
having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award. 
 (b) Appointment of Committees. To the extent permitted by
Applicable Laws, the Board may delegate any or all of its powers under the Plan to one or more Committees. The Board may abolish any Committee at any time and re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority. 

 

	 	4.	Stock Available for Awards. 

 (a) Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment
under Section 8 hereof, Awards may be made under the Plan covering up to 11,739,138 shares of Common Stock. If any Award expires or lapses or is terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or is forfeited in whole or
in part (including as the result of shares of Common Stock subject to such Award being repurchased by the Company at or below the original issuance price), in any case in a manner that results in any shares of Common Stock covered by such Award not
being issued or being so reacquired by the Company, the unused Common Stock covered by such Award shall again be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. Further, shares of Common Stock delivered (either by actual delivery or attestation)
to the Company by a Participant to satisfy the applicable exercise or purchase price of an Award and/or to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligation (including shares retained by the Company from the Award being exercised or purchased and/or
creating the tax obligation) shall be added to the number of shares of Common Stock available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. However, in the case of Incentive Stock Options (as hereinafter defined), the foregoing provisions shall be subject
to 

 
any limitations under the Code. Shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares, shares purchased on the open market or treasury
shares. 
 (b) Substitute Awards. In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with the Company or the acquisition by
the Company of property or share of an entity, the Administrator may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other share or share-based awards granted prior to such merger or consolidation by such entity or an affiliate thereof. Substitute
Awards may be granted on such terms as the Administrator deems appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitations on Awards contained in the Plan. Substitute Awards shall not count against the overall share limit set forth in
Section 4(a) hereof, except as may be required by reason of Section 422 of the Code. 
  

	 	5.	Stock Options.  

 (a) General. The Administrator may grant Options to
any Service Provider, subject to the limitations on Incentive Stock Options described below. The Administrator shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option and the conditions
and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option, including conditions relating to Applicable Laws, as it considers necessary or advisable. 

(b) Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator may grant Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options only to employees
of the Company, any of the Company’s present or future “parent corporations” or “subsidiary corporations” as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are
eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. All Options intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to and shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Neither the Company
nor the Administrator shall have any liability to a Participant, or any other party, (i) if an Option (or any part thereof) which is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option or (ii) for
any action or omission by the Administrator that causes an Option not to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, including without limitation, the conversion of an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option or the grant of an Option
intended as an Incentive Stock Option that fails to satisfy the requirements under the Code applicable to an Incentive Stock Option. Any Option that is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, but fails to so qualify for any reason,
including without limitation, the portion of any Option becoming exercisable in excess of the $100,000 limitation described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-4, shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option for all purposes. 

(c) Exercise Price. The Administrator shall establish the exercise price of each Option and specify the exercise price in the
applicable Award Agreement. The exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value or par value per share of Common Stock, whichever is greater, on the date the Option is granted. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to
an employee who, at the time of grant of the Option, owns (or is treated as owning under Section 424 of the Code) shares representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of shares of the Company (or a “parent corporation”
or “subsidiary corporation” thereof within the meaning of Sections 424(e) or 424(f) of the Code, respectively), the per share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted. 

(d) Duration of Options. Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the
Administrator may specify in the applicable Award Agreement, provided that the term of any Option shall not exceed ten years. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of grant of the Option, owns (or is
treated as owning under Section 424 of the Code) shares representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of shares 

  
 2 

 
of the Company (or a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” thereof within the meaning of Sections 424(e) or 424(f) of the Code, respectively), the term of the
Option shall not exceed five years. 
 (e) Exercise of Option; Notification of Disposition. Options may be exercised by delivery
to the Company of a written notice of exercise, in a form approved by the Administrator (which may be an electronic form), signed by the person authorized to exercise the Option, together with payment in full (i) as specified in
Section 5(f) hereof for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised and (ii) as specified in Section 9(e) hereof for any applicable withholding taxes. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, an Option may not be
exercised for a fraction of a share of Common Stock. If an Option is designated as an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any shares of Common Stock acquired from
the Option if such disposition or transfer is made (i) within two years from the grant date with respect to such Option or (ii) within one year after the transfer of such shares to the Participant (other than any such disposition made in
connection with a change in control). Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the Participant in such
disposition or other transfer. 
 (f) Payment Upon Exercise. Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under
the Plan shall be paid for in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company, or, to the extent permitted by the Administrator, by: 

(i) (A) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to
the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding, or (B) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver
promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding; 
 (ii)
delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of shares of Common Stock owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value, provided (A) such method of payment is then permitted under Applicable Laws, (B) such Common Stock,
if acquired directly from the Company, was owned by the Participant for such minimum period of time, if any, as may be established by the Company at any time, and (C) such Common Stock is not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled
vesting or other similar requirements; 
 (iii) surrendering shares of Common Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise; 
 (iv) delivery of a promissory note of the Participant to the
Company on terms determined by the Administrator; 
 (v) delivery of property of any other kind which constitutes good and
valuable consideration as determined by the Administrator; or 
 (vi) any combination of the above permitted forms of payment
(including cash or check). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may limit a participant’s right to pay for Common Stock in cash or by check
upon exercise of an Option to the extent restricted by any applicable exchange control laws or requirements. 

  
 3 

 (g) Early Exercise of Options. The Administrator may provide in the terms of an Award
Agreement that the Service Provider may exercise an Option in whole or in part prior to the full vesting of the Option in exchange for unvested shares of Restricted Stock with respect to any unvested portion of the Option so exercised. Shares of
Restricted Stock acquired upon the exercise of any unvested portion of an Option shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine. 
  

	 	6.	Restricted Stock; Restricted Stock Units. 

 (a)
General. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock, or the right to purchase Restricted Stock, to any Service Provider, subject to the right of the Company to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated
or formula price from the Participant (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no cost) in the event that conditions specified by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable
restriction period or periods established by the Administrator for such Award. In addition, the Administrator may grant to Service Providers Restricted Stock Units, which may be subject to vesting and forfeiture conditions during applicable
restriction period or periods, as set forth in an applicable Award Agreement. 
 (b) Terms and Conditions for All Restricted Stock and
Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Administrator shall determine and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement the terms and conditions applicable to each Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award, including the conditions for
vesting and repurchase (or forfeiture) and the issue price, in each case, if any.
 (c) Additional Provisions Relating to Restricted
Stock.  
 (i) Dividends. Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to
all ordinary cash dividends paid with respect to such shares, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. In addition, unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if any dividends or distributions are
paid in shares, or consist of a dividend or distribution to holders of Common Stock of property other than an ordinary cash dividend, the shares or other property will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the
shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. Each dividend payment will be made as provided in the applicable Award Agreement, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to
shareholders of that class of shares or, if later, the 15th day of the third month following the later of (A) the date the dividends are paid to shareholders of that class of shares, and (B) the date the dividends are no longer subject to
forfeiture.
 (ii) Share Certificates. The Company may require that any share certificates issued in respect of
shares of Restricted Stock be deposited in escrow by the Participant, together with a duly executed, but undated, repurchase/transfer form, with the Company (or its designee).

(d) Additional Provisions Relating to Restricted Stock Units. 

(i) Settlement. Upon the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit, the Participant shall be entitled to receive from the
Company one share of Common Stock or an amount of cash or other property equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the settlement date, as the Administrator shall determine and as provided in the applicable Award
Agreement. The Administrator may provide that settlement of Restricted Stock Units shall occur upon or as soon as reasonably practicable after the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or shall instead be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at
the election of the Participant, in a manner that complies with Section 409A.

  
 4 

 (ii) Voting Rights. A Participant shall have no voting rights with
respect to any Restricted Stock Units unless and until shares are delivered in settlement thereof.
 (iii) Dividend
Equivalents. To the extent provided by the Administrator, a grant of Restricted Stock Units may provide a Participant with the right to receive Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account
for the Participant, may be settled in cash and/or shares of Common Stock and may be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the Dividend Equivalents are paid, as determined
by the Administrator, subject, in each case, to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
  

	 	7.	Other Stock-Based Awards.  

 Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted hereunder to
Participants, including, without limitation, Awards entitling Participants to receive shares of Common Stock to be delivered in the future. Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards
granted under the Plan, as stand-alone payments and/or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Stock-Based Awards may be paid in shares of Common Stock, cash or other property, as the Administrator
shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of each Other Stock-Based Award, including any purchase price, transfer restrictions, vesting conditions and other terms and
conditions applicable thereto, which shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
  

	 	8.	Adjustments for Changes in Common Stock and Certain Other Events. 

 (a) In
connection with the occurrence of any Equity Restructuring, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, the Administrator will equitably adjust each outstanding Award, which adjustments may include adjustments to the number
and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and/or the exercise price or grant price thereof, if applicable, the grant of new Awards to Participants, and/or the making of a cash payment to Participants, as the Administrator deems
appropriate to reflect such Equity Restructuring. The adjustments provided under this Section 8(a) shall be nondiscretionary and shall be final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company; provided that whether an adjustment is
equitable shall be determined by the Administrator. 
 (b) In the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other
distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), reorganization, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, combination, repurchase, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or
other similar corporate transaction or event, as determined by the Administrator, affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or
potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award, then the Administrator may, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of: 

(i) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted
or awarded (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 4 hereof on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued); 

  
 5 

 (ii) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or
property) subject to outstanding Awards; 
 (iii) the grant or exercise price with respect to any Award; and 

(iv) the terms and conditions of any Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable financial or other performance
“targets” specified in an Award Agreement). 
 (c) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 8(b) hereof
(including without limitation any change in control) or any unusual or nonrecurring transaction or event affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company, or any change in any Applicable Laws or accounting principles, the
Administrator, on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby
authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to (x) prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to
be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award granted or issued under the Plan, (y) to facilitate such transaction or event or (z) give effect to such changes in Applicable Laws or accounting principles:  

(i) To provide for the cancellation of any such Award in exchange for either an amount of cash or other property with a value
equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of the vested portion of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights under the vested portion of such Award, as applicable; provided that, if the amount
that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, in any case, is equal to or less than zero, then the vested portion of such Award may be terminated without payment; 

(ii) To provide that such Award shall vest and, to the extent applicable, be exercisable as to all shares covered thereby,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Award; 
 (iii) To provide that such Award be
assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by awards covering the stock or shares of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate
adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and applicable exercise or purchase price, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator; 

(iv) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to
outstanding Awards, and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards which may be granted in the future; 

(v) To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or 

(vi) To provide that the Award will terminate and cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after the applicable event. 

(d) In the event of any pending share dividend, share split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other
distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting the Common Stock or the share price of 

  
 6 

 
the Common Stock, including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience the Administrator may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty
days prior to the consummation of any such transaction. 
 (e) Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the
Administrator under the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of any class or any dissolution,
liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities
convertible into shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award. The existence of the Plan,
any Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s
capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger, consolidation dissolution or liquidation of the Company or sale of Company assets or (iii) any sale or issuance of securities, including without limitation, securities with rights
superior to those of the Common Stock or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock. The Administrator may treat Participants and Awards (or portions thereof) differently under this Section 8. 

 

	 	9.	General Provisions Applicable to Awards.  

 (a)
Transferability. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine or provide in an Award Agreement or otherwise, in any case in accordance with Applicable Laws, Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise
encumbered by the person to whom they are granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the life of the Participant, shall be exercisable only by the Participant. Except as
the Administrator may otherwise determine or provide in an Award Agreement or otherwise, in any case in accordance with Applicable Laws, shares of Common Stock acquired by a Participant in connection with Awards shall not be sold, assigned,
transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by the person to whom such shares are issued, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except as may be expressly permitted under the terms of the Stockholders Agreement. References to a Participant, to
the extent relevant in the context, shall include references to authorized transferees. 
 (b) Documentation. Each Award shall
be evidenced in an Award Agreement, which may be in such form (written, electronic or otherwise) as the Administrator shall determine. Each Award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan. 

(c) Discretion. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other
Award. The terms of each Award to a Participant need not be identical, and the Administrator need not treat Participants or Awards (or portions thereof) uniformly. 

(d) Termination of Status. The Administrator shall determine the effect on an Award of the disability, death, retirement,
authorized leave of absence or any other change or purported change in a Participant’s Service Provider status and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the Participant’s legal representative, conservator,
estate representative, guardian or Designated Beneficiary may exercise rights under the Award, if applicable. 
 (e)
Withholding. Each Participant shall pay to the Company, or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any taxes required by law to be withheld in connection 

  
 7 

 
with Awards to such Participant no later than the date of the event creating the tax liability. Except as the Administrator may otherwise determine, all such payments shall be made in cash or by
certified check. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Administrator, Participants may satisfy such tax obligations in whole or in part by delivery of shares of Common Stock, including shares retained from the Award creating
the tax obligation, valued at their Fair Market Value. The Company may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, deduct any such tax obligations from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant. 

(f) Amendment of Award. The Administrator may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to,
substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or settlement, and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Participant’s consent to such action shall be
required unless (i) the Administrator determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Participant, or (ii) the change is permitted under Section 8 and 10(f) hereof.

 (g) Conditions on Delivery of Common Stock. The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant
to the Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all conditions of the Award have been met or removed to the satisfaction of the Company, (ii) in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, all
other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, (iii) the Participant has
entered into the Stockholders Agreement with the Company in the form provided to the Participant by the Company and (iv) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Administrator deems
necessary or appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any Applicable Laws. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is determined by the Administrator to be necessary to the
lawful issuance and sale of any securities hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 

(h) Acceleration. The Administrator may at any time provide that any Award shall become immediately vested and/or exercisable in
full or in part, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise realizable in full or in part, as the case may be. 
  

	 	10.	Miscellaneous.  

 (a) No Right To Employment or Other Status. No
person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the
right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any Award, except as expressly provided in an applicable Award Agreement. 

(b) No Rights As Shareholder; Certificates. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement, no Participant or
Designated Beneficiary shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be distributed with respect to an Award until becoming the record holder of such shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan,
unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by any Applicable Laws, the Company shall not be required to deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock issued in connection with any Award and instead such
shares of Common Stock may be recorded in the share register and/or other applicable books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or share plan 

  
 8 

 
administrator). The Company may place legends on share certificates issued under the Plan deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator in order to comply with Applicable Laws. 

(c) Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective on the date on which it is adopted by the Board. No Awards
shall be granted under the Plan after the completion of ten years from the earlier of (i) the date on which the Plan was adopted by the Board or (ii) the date the Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders, but Awards previously
granted may extend beyond that date in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 
 (d) Amendment of Plan. The Administrator may
amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no amendment of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect any Award outstanding at the time of such amendment without the consent of the affected
Participant. Awards outstanding under the Plan at the time of any suspension or termination of the Plan shall continue to be governed in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, as in effect prior to such suspension
or termination. The Board shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws. 

(e) Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Administrator may modify Awards granted to Participants who are foreign nationals or
employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures under the Plan to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other
matters. 
 (f) Section 409A.  

(i) General. The Company intends that all Awards be structured in compliance with, or to satisfy an exemption from,
Section 409A, such that no adverse tax consequences, interest, or penalties under Section 409A apply in connection with any Awards. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may, without a
Participant’s prior consent, amend this Plan and/or Awards, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and actions with retroactive effect) as are necessary or appropriate to preserve
the intended tax treatment of Awards under the Plan, including without limitation, any such actions intended to (A) exempt this Plan and/or any Award from the application of Section 409A, and/or (B) comply with the requirements of
Section 409A, including without limitation any such regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority that may be issued after the date of grant of any Award. The Company makes no representations or warranties as to
the tax treatment of any Award under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company shall have no obligation under this Section 10(f) or otherwise to take any action (whether or not described herein) to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties or
interest under Section 409A with respect to any Award and shall have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute non-compliant, “nonqualified
deferred compensation” subject to the imposition of taxes, penalties and/or interest under Section 409A. 
 (ii)
Separation from Service. With respect to any Award that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A, any payment or settlement of such Award that is to be made upon a termination of a Participant’s
Service Provider relationship shall, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, be made only upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), whether
such “separation from service” occurs upon or subsequent to the termination of the Participant’s Service Provider relationship. For purposes of any such provision of this Plan or any Award

  
 9 

 
Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service.”

 (iii) Payments to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement,
any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” that are otherwise required to be made under an Award to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section 409A and determined by the Administrator) as a result of his or
her “separation from service” shall, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of taxes under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), be delayed until the expiration of the six-month period immediately following such “separation
from service” (or, if earlier, until the date of death of the specified employee) and shall instead be paid (in a manner set forth in the Award agreement) on the day that immediately follows the end of such six-month period or as soon as
administratively practicable thereafter (without interest). Any payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under such Award that are, by their terms, payable more than six months following the Participant’s “separation from
service” shall be paid at the time or times such payments are otherwise scheduled to be made. 
 (g) Limitations on
Liability. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no individual acting as a director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company will be liable to any Participant, former Participant, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person
for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection with the Plan or any Award, nor will such individual be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument he or she executes in his or her
capacity as an Administrator, director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, other employee and agent of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the
administration or interpretation of the Plan has been or will be granted or delegated, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Administrator’s approval)
arising out of any act or omission to act concerning this Plan unless arising out of such person’s own fraud or bad faith.
 (h)
Lock-Up Period. The Company may, at the request of any representative of the underwriters or otherwise, in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, prohibit Participants from,
directly or indirectly, selling or otherwise transferring any shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company during a period of up to one hundred eighty days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed
under the Securities Act. 
 (i) Right of First Refusal. 

(i) Before any shares of Common Stock held by a Participant or any permitted transferee (each, a
“Holder”) may be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or otherwise disposed of (each, a “Transfer”), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the
shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 10(i) (the “Right of First Refusal”). In the event that the Company’s bye-laws and/or a shareholders’
agreement applicable to the shares of Common Stock contain a right of first refusal with respect to the shares of Common Stock, such right of first refusal shall apply to the shares of Common Stock to the extent such provisions are more restrictive
than the Right of First Refusal set forth in this Section 10(i) and the Right of First Refusal set forth in this Section 10(i) shall not in any way restrict the operation of the Company’s bye-laws or the operation of any applicable
shareholders’ agreement. 

  
 10 

 (ii) In the event any Holder desires to Transfer any shares of Common Stock, the
Holder shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise Transfer such shares of Common Stock; (B) the name of each proposed
purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of shares of Common Stock to be Transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (D) the price for which the Holder proposes to Transfer the shares
of Common Stock (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder shall offer such shares of Common Stock at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s). 

(iii) Within twenty-five days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may elect in writing to purchase
all, but not less than all, of the shares of Common Stock proposed to be Transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees by delivery of a written exercise notice to the Holder (a “Company Notice”). The purchase
price (“Purchase Price”) for the shares of Common Stock repurchased under this Section 10(i) shall be the Offered Price. 

(iv) Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check or wire
transfer), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof, within five days after delivery of the
Company Notice or in the manner and at the times mutually agreed to by the Company and the Holder. Should the Offered Price specified in the Notice be payable in property other than cash, the Company or its assignee shall have the right to pay the
purchase price in the form of cash equal in amount to the value of such property, as determined by the Administrator. 
 (v)
If all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock proposed in the Notice to be Transferred are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 10(i), then the Holder may sell or otherwise Transfer such shares of
Common Stock to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price; provided that such sale or other Transfer is consummated within sixty days after the date of the Notice; and provided, further, that any such sale or other Transfer
is effected in accordance with any Applicable Laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement and any other applicable agreements governing the shares of Common Stock to be
Transferred shall continue to apply to the shares of Common Stock in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the shares of Common Stock described in the Notice are not Transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such sixty-day period, a new
Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal, as provided herein, before any shares of Common Stock held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise Transferred. 

(vi) Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10(i) notwithstanding and to the extent permitted by the
Administrator, the Transfer of any or all of the shares of Common Stock during a Participant’s lifetime or upon a Participant’s death by will or intestacy to the Participant’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of the
Participant’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the Right of First Refusal. As used herein, “Immediate Family” shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister or stepchild
(whether or not adopted). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the shares of Common Stock so Transferred subject to the provisions of this Plan (including the Right of First Refusal), the applicable Award Agreement
and any other applicable agreements governing the shares of Common Stock to be Transferred, and there shall be no further Transfer of such shares of Common Stock except in accordance with the terms of this Section 10(i) (or otherwise as
expressly provided under the Plan). 

  
 11 

 (vii) The Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to all shares of Common Stock
if the Company becomes a Publicly Listed Company upon such occurrence. 
 (j) Right to Repurchase Common Stock.  

(i) During the period beginning on the date of a Participant’s Termination of Service and ending on the first anniversary
of the later of (i) the date of such Termination of Service or (ii) as applicable, the date of the last exercise of any portion of any Options held by the Participant (the “Repurchase Period”), the Company shall
have the option (the “Call Right”) to repurchase the Participant’s shares of Common Stock, provided, however that the Call Right shall terminate upon the Company becoming a Publicly Listed Company. The Call Right may be
exercised more than once and for some or all of the shares of Common Stock held by the Participant. 
 (ii) The Company shall
exercise the Call Right (if so elected) by written notice to Participant (and/or, if applicable, any Permitted Transferees) within the Repurchase Period, specifying a date within such period on which the Call Right shall be exercised and the number
of shares of Common Stock as to which the Call Right is being exercised. Upon such notification, the Participant and any Permitted Transferees shall promptly surrender to the Company any certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being
purchased, together with a duly executed repurchase/transfer form of such shares of Common Stock to the Company, free and clear of any liens or encumbrances. Except as provided below, upon the Company’s receipt of the certificates from the
Participant or any Permitted Transferees, the Company shall deliver to him, her or them payment in cash or by check of the Repurchase Price (as defined below) for the shares of Common Stock being purchased. 

(iii) The purchase price payable by the Company upon exercise of the Call Right (the “Repurchase
Price”) shall be as follows: 
 (A) In the event of any Termination of Service other than a Termination of Service by the
Company for Cause, the Fair Market Value, as of the date the Call Right is being exercised, of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Call Right is being exercised; and 

(B) In the event of any Termination of Service by the Company for Cause, the lesser of (i) the Fair Market Value, as of the date the Call
Right is being exercised, of the shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Call Right is being exercised and (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid for such shares by the Participant. 

(iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no payment shall be made under this Section that would cause the Company
to violate any Applicable Law, or any rights or preference of any preferred shareholders of the Company, any banking agreement or loan or other financial covenant or cause default of any indebtedness of the Company, regardless of when such
agreement, covenant or indebtedness was created, incurred or assumed. Any payment under this Section that would cause such violation or default shall result in an extension of the Repurchase Period, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, until
such payment shall no longer cause any such violation or default and at which time the Call Right may be exercised. 
 (k) Data
Privacy. As a condition of receipt of any Award, each Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this paragraph by and among, as
applicable, the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s 

  
 12 

 
participation in the Plan. The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including but not limited to, the Participant’s name,
home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title(s), any shares held in the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates, details of all Awards,
in each case, for the purpose of implementing, managing and administering the Plan and Awards (the “Data”). The Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose
of implementation, administration and management of a Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates may each further transfer the Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the
implementation, administration and management of the Plan. These recipients may be located in the Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and the Participant’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the
recipients’ country. Through acceptance of an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing
the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any shares of Common Stock. The Data
related to a Participant will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. A Participant may, at any time, view the Data held by the Company with respect to such
Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data with respect to such Participant, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data with respect to the Participant or refuse or withdraw the consents herein in
writing, in any case without cost, by contacting his or her local human resources representative. The Company may cancel Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s discretion, the Participant may forfeit
any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws his or her consents as described herein. For more information on the consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participants may contact their local human resources
representative. 
 (l) Shareholder Approval. 

(i) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) below, in the event that it shall be determined that any right to
receive an Award, payment or other benefit under this Plan (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the vesting and/or exercisability of an Award and taking into account the effect of this Section) to or for the benefit of the Participant
(the “Payments”), would not be deductible, in whole or part when aggregated with any other right, payment or benefit to or for the Participant under all other agreements or benefit plans of the Company, by the Company or the
person making such payment or distribution or providing such right or benefit as a result of Section 280G of the Code, then, to the extent necessary to make the Payments deductible to the maximum extent possible (but only to such extent and
after taking into account any reduction in the Payments relating to Section 280G of the Code under any other plan, arrangement or agreement), the Award held by the Participant or any other right, payment or benefit under this Plan shall not
become exercisable, vested or paid. For purposes of determining whether any of the Payments would not be deductible as a result of Section 280G of the Code and the amount of such disallowed deduction, all Payments will be treated as
“parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and all “parachute payments” in excess of the “base amount” (as defined under Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) shall be treated as
nondeductible, unless and except to the extent that in the opinion of a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accountants”), such Payments (in whole or in part) either do not constitute
“parachute payments,” including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4) of the Code, or are otherwise not subject to disallowance as a deduction. All determinations required to be made under this subsection (a), including whether and which of
the Payments are 

  
 13 

 
required to be reduced, the amount of such reduction and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by the Accountants. 

(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the provisions of subclause (i) above shall not apply to reduce the
Payments if the Payments that would otherwise be nondeductible under Section 280G of the Code are disclosed to and approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and related regulations.

 (iii) To the extent Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) of the Code is available to exempt the Payments from being
“parachute payments,” the Company shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prepare and deliver to its shareholders the disclosure required by Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code with respect to the Payments and to obtain
the approval of the Company’s shareholders pursuant to subclause (ii) above. 
 (m) Severability. In the event any portion
of the Plan or any action taken pursuant thereto shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or
invalid provisions had not been included, and the illegal or invalid action shall be null and void. 
 (n) Governing
Documents. (o) In the event of any contradiction between the Plan and any Award Agreement or any other written agreement between a Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company that has been approved by the Administrator,
the terms of the Plan shall govern, unless it is expressly specified in such Award Agreement or other written document that a specific provision of the Plan shall not apply. 

(o) Governing Law. The provisions of the Plan and all Awards made hereunder shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance
with the laws of Delaware, disregarding choice-of-law principles of the law of any state that would require the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than such state. 

(p) Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial; By accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally consents
to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and of the United States of America, in each case located in the State of Delaware, for any action arising out of or relating to the Plan (and agrees not to commence any litigation
relating thereto except in such courts), and further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the address contained in the records of the Company shall be effective service of process for any
litigation brought against it in any such court. By accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any litigation arising out of Plan or Award hereunder in the courts of the State
of Delaware or the United States of America, in each case located in the State of Delaware, and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such litigation brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. By accepting an Award, each Participant irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any litigation arising
out of or relating to the Plan or any Award hereunder. 
 (q) Restrictions on Shares. Shares of Common Stock acquired in respect of
Awards shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, including, without limitation, restrictions on the transferability of shares of Common Stock, the right of the Company to repurchase shares of Common Stock,
the right of the Company to require that shares of Common Stock be transferred in the event of certain transactions, tag-along rights, bring-along rights, redemption and co-sale rights and voting requirements. Such terms and conditions may be
additional to those contained in 

  
 14 

 
the Plan and may, as determined by the Administrator, be contained in the applicable Award Agreement or in an exercise notice, shareholders’ agreement or in such other agreement as the
Administrator shall determine, in each case in a form determined by the Administrator. The issuance of such shares of Common Stock shall be conditioned on the Participant’s consent to such terms and conditions and the Participant’s
entering into such agreement or agreements. 
 (r) Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for
convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. 

(s) Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with all
provisions of the Exchange Control Act 1972, of Bermuda and related regulations, Securities Act and the Exchange Act and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and state securities laws
and regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all Awards granted hereunder shall be administered only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws,
the Plan and all Award Agreements shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.
