 5.         Non-Transferability of Option. Except for any transfer of an Option by bequest or inheritance, the Optionee shall not
have the right to make or permit to exist any transfer or hypothecation, whether outright or as security, with or without consideration, voluntary or involuntary, of all or any part of any right, title or interest in an Option. Any such disposition
not made in accordance with the Plan shall be deemed null and void. An Option shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee, and after his death by a legatee or legatees under the Optionee’s last will and
testament or by his personal representative or representatives, who shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement.

reserved for issuance upon the exercise or payment, as applicable, of each outstanding Option; and the Exercise Price of each outstanding Option shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common
Stock resulting from a subdivision or combination
 
- 4

  of shares of Common Stock or the payment of a stock dividend in shares of Common Stock to holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock or any other increase
or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding effected without receipt of consideration by Datastream. 
 (b)      In the event of or in anticipation by the Committee of a sale, exchange, merger, consolidation, reorganization, tender offer for shares of Common Stock or other similar business
transaction involving Datastream, the Committee may make such adjustments with respect to outstanding Options and take such other action as it deems necessary or appropriate to reflect such sale, exchange, merger, consolidation, reorganization,
tender offer or other similar business transaction including, without limitation, the substitution of new Options, the termination or adjustment of outstanding Options, the acceleration of Options, or the removal of restrictions on outstanding
Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, however, in the event of or in anticipation by the Committee of a sale, exchange, merger, consolidation, reorganization, tender offer for shares of Common Stock or other similar business transaction
involving Datastream that would result in a Change of Control, any Option granted hereunder shall become fully vested and immediately exercisable in full, and shall remain so, regardless of any provisions contained in the applicable Stock Option
Agreement with respect thereto limiting the exercisability of the Option for any length of time or terminating the Option prior to the expiration of its remaining term, subject to all the terms hereof and of the Stock Option Agreement with respect
thereto not inconsistent with this sentence. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7(b) may provide, in the Committee’s discretion, for the elimination without payment therefor of any fractional shares that might otherwise become subject to
any Option, but shall not otherwise diminish the then-current value of the Option. 
 (c)       The existence of the Plan and the Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall not limit or otherwise adversely affect in any way the right or power of Datastream to make or
authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of Datastream, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to the Common
Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of Datastream, any sale or transfer of all or any part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding. 
 8.         Number of Option Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock as to which an Option shall be granted shall be
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of Section 9 as to the total number of shares of Common Stock available for grants under the Plan.
 9.         Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 7 hereof, 75,000 shares of Common
Stock (the “Maximum Plan Shares”) are hereby reserved exclusively for issuance pursuant to Options. At no time shall Datastream have outstanding Options and shares of Common Stock issued in respect of Options granted under this Plan in
excess of the Maximum Plan Shares; for this purpose, the shares of Common Stock attributable to the nonvested, unpaid, unexercised, unconverted or otherwise unsettled
 
- 5
-

  portion of any Option that is forfeited or canceled or expires or terminates for any reason without becoming vested, paid, exercised, converted or otherwise
settled in full shall again be available for purposes of the Plan.
 10.      Administration of the
Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have full authority in its discretion to determine the persons to whom Options shall be granted and the terms and provisions of Options, subject to
the provisions of the Plan. The Committee shall have full and conclusive authority to interpret the Plan; to vary the terms of the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind terms, conditions, rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to determine the
terms and provisions of the respective Stock Option Agreements, to accelerate the time at which Options can be exercised; to terminate the Plan; and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the Plan.
The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, Options under the Plan (whether or not such persons are similarly situated). The
Committee’s decisions shall be final and binding on all Employees receiving Options under the Plan.
 11.      Stock Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement in such form and containing such terms, conditions and restrictions as the
Committee may determine to be appropriate. Each Stock Option Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, and any provisions contained in the Stock Option Agreement that are inconsistent with the Plan shall be null and void to the extent of
the inconsistency.
 12.      Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12, any Option issued in substitution for an option previously issued by another entity, which substitution occurs in connection with a transaction to which Code Section 424(a) is applicable,
may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with such Code Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe to cause such substitute Option to contain as nearly as
possible the same terms and conditions (including the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the previously-issued Option being replaced thereby.
 13.      Purpose of the Plan. The Plan is intended to (a) provide incentive to selected Employees to stimulate their efforts toward the
continued success of the Company and to operate and manage the business of the Company in a manner that will provide for the long-term growth and profitability of the Company; (b) encourage stock ownership by selected Employees of the Company
by providing them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in Datastream; and (c) provide a means of obtaining, rewarding and retaining select Employees.
 14.      Governing Laws. This Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws
of the State of Delaware; provided, however, that any Option granted hereunder may not be exercised unless, in the
 
- 6
-

  reasonable judgment of the Board, such exercise is in compliance with exemptions under applicable securities laws of the jurisdiction in which Optionee
resides and/or any other applicable securities laws. Datastream agrees to use its best efforts to register the shares of Common Stock into which the Options are convertible under applicable U.S. and Australian federal and state securities laws as
soon as practicable, and in any event prior to the date on which any portion of an Option is vested hereunder.
 15.      Successors. This Plan shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of Datastream and Optionee under Section
5 hereof.
 16.      Notice. Any notice which either party hereto may be required
or permitted to give to the other shall be in writing, and may be delivered personally or by mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: to Datastream Systems, Inc. (attention of the Chief Financial Officer), at 50 Datastream Plaza, Greenville,
South Carolina 29605, or at any other address as Datastream, by notice to Optionee, may designate in writing from time to time; to Optionee, at Optionee’s address as shown on the records of Datastream, or at any other address as Optionee, by
notice to Datastream, may designate in writing from time to time.
 17.      Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions or portion thereof contained in this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the same shall not
invalidate or otherwise affect any other provisions of this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement, and this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall be construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion
thereof had never been contained herein or therein.
 18.      Entire Agreement.
This Plan, and the applicable Stock Option Agreement relating to any Option granted pursuant to this Plan, expresses the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to such terms, restrictions and limitations.
 19.      Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and shall
not be considered in construing the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement.
 20.      Specific
Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement, the party or parties who are thereby aggrieved
shall have the right to specific performance and injunction in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.
 21.      Resolution of Disputes. Any determination or interpretation by the Committee shall be final, binding and
conclusive on all persons affected thereby.
 22.      Restrictions on Delivery and Sale of Shares;
Legends. Each Option is subject to the condition that if at any time the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock covered by such Option upon
any securities exchange or under any state or federal law is necessary or
 
- 7
-

  desirable as a condition of or in connection with the granting of such Option, the assignment of such Option or the purchase or delivery of shares
thereunder, the delivery of any or all shares pursuant to such Option may be withheld unless and until such listing, registration or qualification shall have been affected. If a registration statement is not in effect under the Securities Act, or
any applicable state securities laws with respect to the shares of Common Stock purchasable or otherwise deliverable under Options then outstanding, the Committee may require, as a condition of exercise of the Option or as a condition to any other
delivery of Common Stock pursuant to an Option, that the Optionee or other recipient of an Option represent, in writing, that the shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the Option are being acquired for investment and not with a view to
distribution and agree that the shares of Common Stock will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement, unless Datastream shall have received an opinion of counsel that such disposition is exempt from such requirement
under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws. Datastream may include on certificates representing shares delivered pursuant to an Option such legends referring to the foregoing representations or restrictions or any other
applicable restrictions on resale as Datastream, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate.
 23.      Effective Date of Plan. The Plan became effective on December 11, 1998, the date of the approval by the Board of Directors.

Stock Option Agreement with respect thereto limiting the exercisability of the Option for any length of time or terminating the Option prior to the expiration of its remaining term, subject to all the terms hereof and of the Stock Option Agreement
with respect thereto not inconsistent with this sentence. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7(b) may provide, in the Committee’s discretion, for the elimination without payment therefor of any fractional shares that might otherwise become
subject to any Option, but shall not otherwise diminish the then-current value of the Option.
 (c)       The existence of the Plan and the Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall not limit or otherwise adversely affect in any way the right or power of Datastream to make or
authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of Datastream, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities as to the Common
Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of Datastream, any sale or transfer of all or any part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding.
 8.         Number of Option Shares. The number of shares of Common Stock as to which an Option shall be granted shall be
determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject to the provisions of Section 10 as to the total number of shares of Common Stock available for grants under the Plan.
 9.         Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 7 hereof, 125,000 shares of Common Stock
(the “Maximum Plan Shares”) are hereby reserved exclusively for issuance pursuant to Options. At no time shall Datastream have outstanding Options and shares of Common Stock issued in respect of Options granted under this Plan in excess of
the Maximum Plan Shares; for this purpose, the shares of Common Stock attributable to the nonvested, unpaid, unexercised, unconverted or

  otherwise unsettled portion of any Option that is forfeited or canceled or expires or terminates for any reason without becoming vested, paid, exercised,
converted or otherwise settled in full shall again be available for purposes of the Plan.
 10.      Administration of the Plan. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have full authority in its discretion to determine the persons to whom Options shall be granted and the terms and
provisions of Options, subject to the provisions of the Plan. The Committee shall have full and conclusive authority to interpret the Plan; to vary the terms of the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to
determine the terms and provisions of the respective Stock Option Agreements; to accelerate the time at which Options can be exercised; to terminate the Plan; and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the proper administration
of the Plan. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to receive, awards under the Plan (whether or not such persons are similarly situated).
The Committee’s decisions shall be final and binding on all Employees receiving Options under the Plan.
 11.      Stock Option Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement in such form and containing such terms, conditions and restrictions as the
Committee may determine to be appropriate. Each Stock Option Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, and any provisions contained in the Stock Option Agreement that are inconsistent with the Plan shall be null and void to the extent of
the inconsistency.
 12.      Special Provisions for Certain Substitute Options.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 12, any Option issued in substitution for an option previously issued by another entity, which substitution occurs in connection with a transaction to which Code Section 424(a) is applicable,
may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with such Code Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and conditions as the Committee may prescribe to cause such substitute Option to contain as nearly as
possible the same terms and conditions (including the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the previously-issued Option being replaced thereby.
 13.      Purpose of the Plan. The Plan is intended to (a) provide incentive to selected Employees to stimulate their efforts toward the continued
success of the Company and to operate and manage the business of the Company in a manner that will provide for the long-term growth and profitability of the Company; (b) encourage stock ownership by selected Employees of the Company by providing
them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in Datastream; and (c) provide a means of obtaining, rewarding and retaining select Employees.
 14.      Governing Laws. This Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall be construed, administered and enforced according to the laws of the State of
Delaware; provided, however, that any Option granted hereunder may not be exercised unless, in the
 
- 6
-

  reasonable judgment of the Board, such exercise is in compliance with exemptions under applicable securities laws of the jurisdiction in which Optionee
resides and/or any other applicable U.S. and Argentinean securities laws. Datastream agrees to use its best efforts to register the shares of Common Stock into which the Options are convertible under applicable U.S. and Argentinean federal and state
securities laws as soon as practicable, and in any event prior to the date on which any portion of an Option is vested hereunder.
 15.      Successors. This Plan shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of Datastream and Optionee under Section
5.
 16.      Notice. Any notice which either party hereto may be required or
permitted to give to the other shall be in writing, and may be delivered personally or by mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: to Datastream Systems, Inc. (attention of the Chief Financial Officer), at 50 Datastream Plaza, Greenville, South
Carolina 29605, or at any other address as Datastream, by notice to Optionee, may designate in writing from time to time; to Optionee, at Optionee’s address as shown on the records of Datastream, or at any other address as Optionee, by notice
to Datastream, may designate in writing from time to time.
 17.      Severability.
In the event that any one or more of the provisions or portion thereof contained in this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the same shall not invalidate
or otherwise affect any other provisions of this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement, and this Plan or the applicable Stock Option Agreement shall be construed as if the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof had
never been contained herein or therein.
 18.      Entire Agreement. This Plan, and
the applicable Stock Option Agreement relating to any Option granted pursuant to this Plan, expresses the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to such terms, restrictions and limitations.
 19.      Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not be
considered in construing the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement.
 20.      Specific
Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and the applicable Stock Option Agreement, the party or parties who are thereby aggrieved
shall have the right to specific performance and injunction in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.
 21.      Resolution of Disputes. Any determination or interpretation by the Committee shall be final, binding and
conclusive on all persons affected thereby.

  22.      Restrictions on Delivery and Sale of Shares Legends. Each Option is subject to the condition that if at any time the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock covered by such Option upon any securities exchange
or under any state or federal law is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in connection with the granting of such Option, the assignment of such Option or the purchase or delivery of shares thereunder, the delivery of any or all shares
pursuant to such Option may be withheld unless and until such listing, registration or qualification shall have been affected. If a registration statement is not in effect under the Securities Act, or any applicable state securities laws with
respect to the shares of Common Stock purchasable or otherwise deliverable under Options then outstanding, the Committee may require, as a condition of exercise of the Option or as a condition to any other delivery of Common Stock pursuant to an
Option, that the Optionee or other recipient of an Option represent, in writing, that the shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the Option are being acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution and agree that the shares of
Common Stock will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement, unless Datastream shall have received an opinion of counsel that such disposition is exempt from such requirement under the Securities Act and any
applicable state securities laws. Datastream may include on certificates representing shares delivered pursuant to an Option such legends referring to the foregoing representations or restrictions or any other applicable restrictions on resale as
Datastream, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate.
 23.      Effective Date of Plan. The Plan became effective on March 12, 1999, the date of the approval by the Board of Directors.
