 STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

This Stockholder Rights Agreement, dated as of April 24, 2012 (this “Agreement”), is entered into between Smith
Micro Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., a federally chartered trust company (the “Rights Agent”). 

RECITALS  
 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (a “Right”) for each share of Common Stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of the Company (a “Common Share”) outstanding on the Close of Business on April 27, 2012 (the “Record Date”) and authorized the issuance of one Right with respect to each additional Common
Share that became outstanding after the Record Date and before the earliest of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date and the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, and certain additional shares of Common Stock
that became outstanding after the Distribution Date as provided in Section 22 of this Agreement, each Right initially representing the right to purchase one Unit of Preferred Stock (as hereinafter defined), or such different amount and/or kind
of securities as shall be hereinafter provided. 
 Accordingly, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements
herein set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows: 
 Section 1. Certain Definitions. For
purposes of this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings indicated: 
 “Acquiring Person” shall mean
any Person who or which, together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person, shall be the Beneficial Owner of 20% of the Common Shares, but shall not include (i) the Company, (ii) any Subsidiary of the Company, (iii) any
employee benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or (iv) any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such employee benefit plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) no Person shall become an
“Acquiring Person” as the result of an acquisition of Common Shares by the Company which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person to 20% or more of
the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding; provided, however, that if a Person shall so become the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares of the Company then outstanding by reason of an acquisition of Common
Shares by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, become the Beneficial Owner of any additional shares of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company (other than pursuant to a dividend or distribution paid or made by the
Company on the outstanding Common Shares or pursuant to a split or subdivision of the outstanding Common Shares), then such Person shall be deemed to be an “Acquiring Person”; and (2) if the Board of Directors of the Company
determines in good faith that a Person who would otherwise be an “Acquiring Person,” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, has become such inadvertently or had no knowledge of the consequences of
becoming an Acquiring Person and had no intention to influence the control of the Company, and such Person divests as promptly as practicable a sufficient number of Common Shares so that such Person would no longer be an “Acquiring
Person,” as defined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, then such Person shall not be deemed to have become an “Acquiring Person” for any purposes of this Agreement. 

Notwithstanding anything in this definition of Acquiring Person to the contrary, no Person (i) shall become an “Acquiring
Person” solely as a result of any unilateral grant of any security by the Company or through the exercise of any options, warrants, rights or similar interests (including restricted stock) granted by the Company to its directors, officers
and employees; and (ii) no Person shall become an “Acquiring Person” as the result of the acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of Common Shares from an individual who, on the later of the date hereof or the first public
announcement of this Agreement, is the Beneficial Owner of 20% or more of the Common Shares then outstanding if such Common Shares are received by such Person upon such individual’s death pursuant to such individual’s will or pursuant to a
charitable trust created by such individual for estate planning purposes. 
 “Affiliate” and
“Associate” shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as in effect on
the date of this Agreement.

 A Person shall be deemed the “Beneficial Owner” of and shall be deemed to
“beneficially own” any securities: 
 (i) which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or
Associates is deemed to beneficially own, directly or indirectly, within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date hereof; 
 (ii) which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has (A) the right to acquire (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time)
pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public offering of securities), written or otherwise, or upon the exercise
of conversion rights, exchange rights, rights (other than the Rights), warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed to be the Beneficial Owner of, or to beneficially own, securities tendered
pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act by or on behalf of such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates until such
tendered securities are accepted for purchase or exchange; or (B) the right to vote pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the Beneficial Owner of, or to
beneficially own, any security by reason of such agreement, arrangement or understanding if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such security (1) arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given to such Person in response
to a public proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and (2) is not also then reportable on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (or any
comparable or successor report); or 
 (iii) which are beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any other Person with
which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has any agreement, arrangement or understanding (other than customary agreements with and between underwriters and selling group members with respect to a bona fide public
offering of securities), written or otherwise, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except to the extent contemplated by the proviso to section (B) of the immediately preceding paragraph (ii)) or disposing of any securities of the
Company. 
 For all purposes of this Agreement, any calculation of the number of Common Shares outstanding at any particular time, including for
purposes of determining the particular percentage of the outstanding Common Shares of which any Person is the Beneficial Owner, shall be made in accordance with the last sentence of Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act, as in effect on the
date hereof. 
 “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or a day on which banking
institutions in the state of New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. 
 “Close of
Business” on any given date shall mean 5:00 P.M., Eastern Time, on such date; provided, however, that if such date is not a Business Day it shall mean 5:00 P.M., Eastern Time, on the next succeeding Business Day. 

“Common Shares” when used with reference to the Company shall mean the shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per
share, of the Company. “Common Shares” when used with reference to any Person other than the Company shall mean the capital stock (or equity interest) with the greatest voting power of such other Person or, if such other Person is a
Subsidiary of another Person, the Person or Persons which ultimately control such first-mentioned Person. 
 “Common
Stock Equivalents” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 11(a)(iii)(B)(3) hereof. 
 “Current
Value” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 11(a)(iii)(A)(1) hereof. 
 “Definitive Acquisition
Agreement” shall mean an agreement, conditioned on the approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, with respect to a merger, recapitalization, share exchange, or a similar transaction involving the
Company or the direct or indirect acquisition of more than 50% of the Company’s consolidated total assets. 

“Distribution Date” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 3(a) hereof. 

“Equivalent Preferred Stocks” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 11(b) hereof. 

“Exchange Ratio” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 24(a) hereof. 

“Exemption Date” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 23(b) hereof.

“Purchase Price” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7(b) hereof. 

“Preferred Stock” shall mean shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share,
of the Company having such rights and preferences as are set forth in the form of Certificate of Designations set forth as Exhibit A hereto, as the same may be amended from time to time. 

“Qualifying Offer” shall mean an offer determined by a majority of independent directors of the Company to have, to the
extent required for the type of offer specified, each of the following characteristics: 
 (i) a fully financed all-cash
tender offer or an exchange offer offering shares of common stock of the offeror, or a combination thereof, in each such case for any and all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at the same per share consideration; provided, however, that such
per share price and consideration represent a reasonable premium over (a) the highest reported market price of the Common Stock in the immediately preceding eighteen (18) months and (b) the value per outstanding share of cash and cash
equivalents held by the Company, with, in the case of an offer that includes shares of common stock of the offeror, such per share offer price being determined using the lowest reported market price for common stock of the offeror during the five
(5) Trading Days immediately preceding and the five (5) Trading Days immediately following the date on which the Qualifying Offer is commenced; 
 (ii) an offer that, within twenty (20) Business Days after the commencement date of the offer (or within ten (10) Business Days after any increase in the offer consideration), does not
result in a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by the Board rendering an opinion to the Board that the consideration being offered to the stockholders of the Company is either unfair or inadequate; 

(iii) if the offer includes shares of common stock of the offeror, an offer pursuant to which (a) the offeror shall permit
representatives of the Company, including, but not limited to, a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by the Board, legal counsel and an accounting firm designated by the Company to have access to such offeror’s books,
records, management, accountants and other appropriate outside advisers for the purposes of permitting such representatives to conduct a due diligence review of the offeror in order to permit such investment banking firm (relying as appropriate on
the advice of such legal counsel) to be able to render an opinion to the Board with respect to whether the consideration being offered to the Company’s stockholders is fair, and (b) within ten (10) Business Days after such investment
banking firm shall have notified the Company and the offeror that it has completed the due diligence review to its satisfaction (or following completion of such due diligence review within ten (10) Business Days after any increase in the
consideration being offered), such investment banking firm does not render an opinion to the Board that the consideration being offered to the stockholders of the Company is either unfair or inadequate and such investment banking firm does not after
the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period render an opinion to the Board that the consideration being offered to the stockholders of the Company has become either unfair or inadequate based on a subsequent disclosure or discovery of a
development or developments that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material adverse affect on the value of the common stock of the offeror; 
 (iv) an offer that is subject only to the minimum tender condition described below in item (viii) of this definition and other customary terms and conditions, which conditions shall not include
any financing, funding or similar conditions or any requirements with respect to the offeror or its agents being permitted any due diligence with respect to the books, records, management, accountants or any other outside advisers of the Company;

 (v) an offer pursuant to which the Company and its stockholders have received an irrevocable written commitment of the
offeror that the offer will remain open for not less than one hundred twenty (120) Business Days and, if a Special Meeting Demand is duly delivered to the Board in accordance with Section 23(b), for at least ten (10) Business Days

“Qualifying Offer Period”); 
 (vi) an offer pursuant to which the Company has received an irrevocable
written commitment by the offeror that, in addition to the minimum time periods specified in item (vi) of this definition, the offer, if it is otherwise to expire prior thereto, will be extended for at least fifteen (15) Business Days
after (a) any increase in the price offered

or (b) any bona fide alternative offer is commenced by another Person within the meaning of Rule 14d-2(a) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that such offer need not remain open,
as a result of clauses (vi) and (vii) of this definition, beyond (1) the time which any other offer satisfying the criteria for a Qualifying Offer is then required to be kept open under such clauses (vi) and (vii) or
(2) the expiration date, as such date may be extended by public announcement (with prompt written notice to the Rights Agent) in compliance with Rule 14e-1 of the Exchange Act, of any other tender offer for the Common Stock with respect to
which the Board of Directors has agreed to redeem the Rights immediately prior to acceptance for payment of Common Stock thereunder (unless such other offer is terminated prior to its expiration without any Common Stock having been purchased
thereunder) or (3) one (1) Business Day after the stockholder vote with respect to approval of any Definitive Acquisition Agreement has been officially determined and certified by the inspectors of elections; 

(vii) an offer that is conditioned on a minimum of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock being tendered and not
withdrawn as of the offer’s expiration date, which condition shall not be waivable; 
 (viii) an offer pursuant to
which the Company and its stockholders have received an irrevocable written commitment by the offeror to consummate as promptly as practicable upon successful completion of the offer a second step transaction whereby all shares of the Common Stock
not tendered into the offer will be acquired at the same consideration per share actually paid pursuant to the offer, subject to stockholders’ statutory appraisal rights, if any; 

(ix) an offer pursuant to which the Company and its stockholders have received an irrevocable written commitment of the offeror that
no amendments will be made to the offer to reduce the offer consideration, or otherwise change the terms of the offer in a way that is materially adverse to a tendering stockholder (other than extensions of the offer consistent with the terms
thereof); 
 (x) an offer (other than an offer consisting solely of cash consideration) pursuant to which the Company has
received the written representation and certification of the offeror and the written representations and certifications of the offeror’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, that (a) all facts about the offeror that would
be material to making an investor’s decision to accept the offer have been fully and accurately disclosed as of the date of the commencement of the offer within the meaning of Rule 14d-2(a) of the Exchange Act, (b) all such new facts
will be fully and accurately disclosed on a prompt basis during the entire period during which the offer remains open, and (c) all required Exchange Act reports will be filed by the offeror in a timely manner during such period; and 

(xi) if the offer includes shares of stock of the offeror, (a) the stock portion of the consideration must consist solely of
common stock of an offeror that is a publicly owned corporation, and be freely tradable and is listed on either the New York Stock Exchange or The NASDAQ Global Select Market, (b) no stockholder approval of the offeror is required to issue such
common stock, or, if required, has already been obtained, (c) no Person (including such Person’s Affiliates and Associates) beneficially owns more than 20% of the voting stock of the offeror at the time of commencement of the offer or at
any time during the term of the offer, and (d) no other class of voting stock of the offeror is outstanding, and the offeror meets the registrant eligibility requirements for use of Form S-3 for registering securities under the Act, including,
but not limited to, the filing of all required Exchange Act reports in a timely manner during the twelve (12) calendar months prior to the date of commencement of the offer. 

For the purposes of the definition of Qualifying Offer, “fully financed” shall mean that the offeror has sufficient funds for
the offer and related expenses which shall be evidenced by (a) firm, unqualified, written commitments from responsible financial institutions having the necessary financial capacity, accepted by the offeror, to provide funds for such offer
subject only to customary terms and conditions, (b) cash or cash equivalents then available to the offeror, set apart and maintained solely for the purpose of funding the offer with an irrevocable written commitment being provided by the
offeror to the Board to maintain such availability until the offer is consummated or withdrawn, or (c) a combination of the foregoing, which evidence has been provided to the Company prior to, or upon, commencement of the offer. If an offer
becomes a Qualifying Offer in accordance with this definition but subsequently ceases to be a Qualifying Offer as a result of the failure at a later date to continue to satisfy any of the requirements of this definition, such offer shall cease to be
a Qualifying Offer and the provisions of Section 23(b) shall no longer be applicable to such offer. The Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent in writing upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Offer and, if such notification is given
orally, the Company shall confirm same in writing on or prior to the Business Day next following. Until such notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively for all purposes that a Qualifying Offer has not occurred.

respect of such Common Shares (which certificates shall also be deemed to be Right Certificates) and not by separate Right Certificates, and (y) the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of Common Shares. As soon as

 5 

Table of Contents

 
on the Distribution Date, the Rights will be evidenced by such certificates registered in the names of the holders thereof (or such book entry Common Shares) together with a copy of the Summary
of Rights attached thereto. Until the Close of Business on the Distribution Date (or the earlier of the Redemption Date or the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date), the surrender for transfer of any certificate for Common Shares (or book
entry Common Shares) outstanding on the Record Date, with or without a copy of the Summary of Rights attached thereto, shall also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares evidenced thereby. 

(c) Certificates for Common Shares which become outstanding (including, without limitation, reacquired Common Shares referred to in
the last sentence of this paragraph (c)) after the Record Date but prior to the earliest of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, the Redemption Date or the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date shall have impressed on, printed
on, written on or otherwise affixed to them the following legend: 
 This certificate also evidences and entitles the holder
hereof to certain Rights as set forth in a Rights Agreement between Smith Micro Software, Inc. and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, dated as of April 24, 2012, as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented pursuant
to its terms (the “Rights Agreement”), the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference and a copy of which is on file at the principal executive offices of Smith Micro Software, Inc. Under certain circumstances, as
set forth in the Rights Agreement, such Rights will be evidenced by separate certificates and will no longer be evidenced by this certificate. Smith Micro Software, Inc. will mail to the holder of this certificate a copy of the Rights Agreement
without charge after receipt of a written request therefor. Under certain circumstances, Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by Acquiring Persons (as defined in the Rights Agreement) may become null and void. 

With respect to any book entry Common Shares, such legend shall be included in a notice to the record holder of such shares in accordance with applicable
law. With respect to such certificates containing the foregoing legend, or any notice of the foregoing legend delivered to holders of book entry Common Shares, until the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, the Rights associated with the
Common Shares represented by certificates or book entry Common Shares shall be evidenced by such certificates alone or book entry Common Shares, and the surrender for transfer of any such certificate or book entry Common Shares shall, except as
otherwise provided herein, also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented thereby. In the event that the Company purchases or acquires any Common Shares after the Record Date but prior to the Close of
Business on the Distribution Date, any Rights associated with such Common Shares shall be deemed canceled and retired so that the Company shall not be entitled to exercise any Rights associated with the Common Shares which are no longer outstanding.

 Notwithstanding this paragraph (c), neither the omission of a legend nor the failure to deliver the notice of such legend required hereby
shall affect the enforceability of any part of this Agreement or the rights of any holder of the Rights. 

Section 4. Form of Right Certificates. The Right Certificates (and the forms of election to purchase Preferred
Stock and of assignment to be printed on the reverse thereof) shall be substantially the same as Exhibit B hereto and may have such marks of identification or designation and such legends, summaries or endorsements printed thereon as the
Company may deem appropriate and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, or as may be required to comply with any applicable law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock
exchange or interdealer quotation system on which the Rights may from time to time be listed or quoted, or to conform to usage. Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Right Certificates shall entitle the holders thereof to purchase
such number of Units of Preferred Stock as shall be set forth therein at the Purchase Price, but the number of Units of Preferred Stock and the Purchase Price shall be subject to adjustment as provided herein. 

Section 5. Countersignature and Registration. The Right Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the
Company by its Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer and President, any of its Vice Presidents, or its Treasurer, either manually or by facsimile signature, shall have affixed thereto the Company’s seal or a facsimile thereof, and
shall be attested by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company, either manually or by facsimile signature. The Right Certificates shall be countersigned by the Rights Agent and shall not be valid for any purpose unless so
countersigned, either manually or by facsimile. In case any officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Right Certificates shall cease to be such officer of the Company before countersignature by the Rights

Agent and issuance and delivery by the Company, such Right Certificates, nevertheless, may be countersigned by the Rights Agent and issued and delivered by the Company with the same force and
effect as though the Person who signed such Right Certificates had not ceased to be such officer of the Company; and any Right Certificate may be signed on behalf of the Company by any Person who, at the actual date of the execution of such Right
Certificate, shall be a proper officer of the Company to sign such Right Certificate, although at the date of the execution of this Rights Agreement any such Person was not such an officer. 

Following the Distribution Date, the Rights Agent will keep or cause to be kept, at its principal office, books for registration of the
transfer of the Right Certificates issued hereunder. Such books shall show the names and addresses of the respective holders of the Right Certificates, the number of Rights evidenced on its face by each of the Right Certificates and the date of each
of the Right Certificates. 
 Section 6. Transfer, Split Up, Combination and Exchange of Right
Certificates; Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Right Certificates. Subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof, at any time after the Close of Business on the Distribution Date, and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date or the
Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, any Right Certificate or Right Certificates (other than Right Certificates representing Rights that have become void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof or that have been exchanged pursuant to
Section 24 hereof) may be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged for another Right Certificate or Right Certificates, entitling the registered holder to purchase a like number of Units of Preferred Stock as the Right Certificate or Right
Certificates surrendered then entitled such holder to purchase. Any registered holder desiring to transfer, split up, combine or exchange any Right Certificate or Right Certificates shall make such request in writing delivered to the Rights Agent,
and shall surrender the Right Certificate or Right Certificates to be transferred, split up, combined or exchanged at the principal office of the Rights Agent. Thereupon the Rights Agent shall countersign and deliver to the person entitled thereto a
Right Certificate or Right Certificates, as the case may be, as so requested. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient for any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer, split up, combination or
exchange of Right Certificates. 
 Upon receipt by the Company and the Rights Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to them
of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of a Right Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to them, and, at the Company’s request, reimbursement to the Company and the
Rights Agent of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender to the Rights Agent and cancellation of the Right Certificate if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Right Certificate of like tenor to the Rights Agent
for delivery to the registered holder in lieu of the Right Certificate so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. 

Section 7. Exercise of Rights; Purchase Price; Expiration Date of Rights. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the registered holder of any Right Certificate (other than a holder whose Rights have
become void pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof or have been exchanged pursuant to Section 24 hereof) may exercise the Rights evidenced thereby in whole or in part at any time after the Distribution Date upon surrender of the Right
Certificate, with the form of election to purchase on the reverse side thereof duly executed, to the Rights Agent at its principal office, together with payment of the Purchase Price for each Unit of Preferred Stock as to which the Rights are
exercised, prior to the earliest of (i) the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, (ii) the time at which the right to exercise the Rights terminates pursuant to Section 23 hereof, or (iii) the time at which the right to
exercise the Rights terminates pursuant to Section 24 hereof. 
 (b) The purchase price for each one one-thousandth
(1/1,000) of a share (each such one one-thousandth (1/1,000) of a share being a “Unit”) of Preferred Stock to be purchased upon the exercise of a Right shall initially be Ten Dollars ($10.00) (the “Purchase
Price”), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 11 and Section 13 hereof and shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America in accordance with paragraph (c) below.

 (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, upon receipt of a Right Certificate representing exercisable Rights, with the
form of election to purchase and certificate duly executed, accompanied by payment of the Purchase Price for the number of Unit of Preferred Stock to be purchased and an amount equal to any applicable transfer tax required to be paid by the holder
of such Right Certificate in accordance with Section 9 hereof by cash, certified check, cashier’s check or money order payable to the order of the Company, the Rights Agent shall thereupon promptly (i) (A) requisition from any
transfer agent of the Preferred Stock certificates for the number of Units of Preferred Stock to be purchased and the Company hereby irrevocably authorizes its transfer agent to comply with all

  
 7 

Table of Contents

 
such requests, or (B) requisition from any depositary agent for the Preferred Stock depositary receipts representing such number of Units of Preferred Stock as are to be purchased (in which
case certificates for the Preferred Stock represented by such receipts shall be deposited by the transfer agent with the depositary agent) and the Company hereby directs any such depositary agent to comply with such request, (ii) when
appropriate, requisition from the Company the amount of cash to be paid in lieu of issuance of fractional Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 14 hereof, (iii) promptly after receipt of such certificates or depositary receipts, cause
the same to be delivered to or upon the order of the registered holder of such Right Certificate, registered in such name or names as may be designated by such holder and (iv) when appropriate, after receipt, promptly deliver such cash to or
upon the order of the registered holder of such Right Certificate. 
 (d) Except as otherwise provided herein, in case the
registered holder of any Right Certificate shall exercise less than all the Rights evidenced thereby, a new Right Certificate evidencing Rights equivalent to the exercisable Rights remaining unexercised shall be issued by the Rights Agent to the
registered holder of such Right Certificate or to his duly authorized assigns, subject to the provisions of Section 14 hereof. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither the Rights Agent nor the Company shall be obligated to undertake any action with respect to a registered holder of Rights upon
the occurrence of any purported exercise as set forth in this Section 7 unless such registered holder shall have (i) completed and signed the certificate following the form of election to purchase set forth on the reverse side of the Right
Certificate surrendered for such exercise and (ii) provided such additional evidence of the identity of the Beneficial Owner (or former Beneficial Owner) or Affiliates or Associates thereof as the Company shall reasonably request. 

Section 8. Cancellation and Destruction of Right Certificates. All Right Certificates surrendered for the
purpose of exercise, transfer, split up, combination or exchange shall, if surrendered to the Company or to any of its agents, be delivered to the Rights Agent for cancellation or in canceled form, or, if surrendered to the Rights Agent, shall be
canceled by it, and no Right Certificates shall be issued in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall deliver to the Rights Agent for cancellation and retirement, and the Rights Agent
shall so cancel and retire, any other Right Certificate purchased or acquired by the Company otherwise than upon the exercise thereof. The Rights Agent shall deliver all canceled Right Certificates to the Company, or shall, at the written request of
the Company, destroy such canceled Right Certificates, and in such case shall deliver a certificate of destruction thereof to the Company. 
 
Section 9. Status and Availability of Preferred Stock. 
 (a) The Company covenants and agrees that it will
take all such action as may be necessary to ensure that all Preferred Stock delivered upon exercise of Rights shall, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Preferred Stock (subject to payment of the Purchase Price), be duly and validly
authorized and issued and fully paid and non-assessable shares. 
 (b) The Company further covenants and agrees that it
will pay when due and payable any and all federal and state transfer taxes and charges which may be payable in respect of the issuance or delivery of the Right Certificates or of any Preferred Stock upon the exercise of Rights. The Company shall
not, however, be required to pay any transfer tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer or delivery of Right Certificates to a person other than, or the issuance or delivery of certificates or depositary receipts for the Preferred Stock in
a name other than that of, the registered holder of the Right Certificate evidencing Rights surrendered for exercise, or to issue or to deliver any certificates or depositary receipts for Preferred Stock upon the exercise of any Rights until any
such tax shall have been paid (any such tax being payable by the holder of such Right Certificate at the time of surrender) or until it has been established to the Company’s reasonable satisfaction that no such tax is due. 

(c) The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be reserved and kept available, out of its authorized and unissued
Preferred Stock or any Preferred Stock held in its treasury, the number of shares of Preferred Stock that will be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Rights in accordance with Section 7 hereof. 

Section 10. Preferred Stock Record Date. Each Person in whose name any certificate for Preferred Stock is
issued upon the exercise of Rights shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of the Preferred Stock represented thereby on, and such certificate shall be dated, the date upon which the Right Certificate evidencing such
Rights was duly surrendered and payment of the Purchase Price (and any applicable transfer taxes) was made. Prior to the exercise of the Rights evidenced thereby, the holder of a Right Certificate shall not be entitled to any rights of a holder of
Preferred Stock for which the Rights shall be exercisable, including, without limitation, the right to vote, to receive dividends or other distributions or to exercise any preemptive rights, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any
proceedings of the Company, except as provided herein.

 Section 11. Adjustment of Purchase Price, Number of Shares or Number
of Rights. 
 (a) (i) In the event the Company shall at any time after the date of this Agreement (A) declare
and pay a dividend on the Preferred Stock payable in Preferred Stock, (B) subdivide the outstanding Preferred Stock, (C) combine the outstanding Preferred Stock into a smaller number of shares of Preferred Stock or (D) issue any
shares of its capital stock in a reclassification of the Preferred Stock (including any such reclassification in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving corporation), except as otherwise provided
in this Section 11(a), the Purchase Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or of the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification, and the number and kind of shares of capital stock issuable on
such date, shall be proportionately adjusted so that the holder of any Right exercised after such time shall be entitled to receive the aggregate number and kind of shares of capital stock which, if such Right had been exercised immediately prior to
such date, he would have owned upon such exercise and been entitled to receive by virtue of such dividend, subdivision, combination or reclassification; provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the
exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one Right. 
 (ii) Subject to the following paragraph of this subparagraph (ii) and to Section 24 of this Agreement, in the event any Person shall become an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right shall
thereafter have a right to receive, upon exercise thereof at a price equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Units of Preferred Stock for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and in lieu of Preferred Stock, such number of Common Shares of the Company as shall equal the result obtained by (x) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of Units of Preferred Stock for which a Right is then exercisable
and dividing that product by (y) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Company’s Common Shares (determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the date such Person became an Acquiring Person. In the event that any
Person shall become an Acquiring Person and the Rights shall then be outstanding, the Company shall not take any action that would eliminate or diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. 

From and after the occurrence of such an event, any Rights that are or were acquired or beneficially owned by such Acquiring Person (or
any Associate or Affiliate of such Acquiring Person) on or after the earlier of (x) the date of such event and (y) the Distribution Date shall be void and any holder of such Rights shall thereafter have no right to exercise such Rights
under any provision of this Agreement. No Right Certificate shall be issued pursuant to Section 3 that represents Rights beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or
Affiliate thereof; no Right Certificate shall be issued at any time upon the transfer of any Rights to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or Affiliate thereof or to any nominee of such
Acquiring Person, Associate or Affiliate; and any Right Certificate delivered to the Rights Agent for transfer to an Acquiring Person whose Rights would be void pursuant to the preceding sentence or any Associate or Affiliate thereof shall be
canceled. 
 (iii) In the event that the number of Common Shares which are authorized by the Company’s certificate of
incorporation and not outstanding or subscribed for, or reserved or otherwise committed for issuance for purposes other than upon exercise of the Rights, are not sufficient to permit the holder of each Right to purchase the number of Common Shares
to which he would be entitled upon the exercise in full of the Rights in accordance with the foregoing subparagraph (ii) of paragraph (a) of this Section 11, or should the Board of Directors so elect, the Company shall:
(A) determine the excess of (1) the value of the Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of a Right (calculated as provided in the last sentence of this subparagraph (iii)) pursuant to Section 11(a)(ii) hereof (the “Current
Value”) over (2) the Purchase Price (such excess, the “Spread”), and (B) with respect to each Right, make adequate provision to substitute for such Common Shares, upon payment of the applicable Purchase Price, any
one or more of the following having an aggregate value determined by the Board of Directors to be equal to the Current Value: (1) cash, (2) a reduction in the Purchase Price, (3) other equity securities of the Company (including,
without limitation, shares, or units of shares, of preferred stock which the Board of Directors of the Company has determined to have the same value as Common Shares (such shares of preferred stock, “Common Stock Equivalents”)),
(4) debt securities of the Company, or (5) other assets; provided, however, if the Company shall not have made adequate provision to deliver value pursuant to clause (B) above within thirty (30) days following the
first occurrence of an event triggering the rights to purchase Common Shares described in Section 11(a)(ii) (the 

  
 9 

Table of Contents

 
“Section 11(a)(ii) Trigger Date”), then the Company shall be obligated to deliver, upon the surrender for exercise of a Right and without requiring payment of the Purchase
Price, Common Shares (to the extent available) and then, if necessary, cash, which shares and cash have an aggregate value equal to the Spread. If the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine in good faith that it is likely that sufficient
additional Common Shares could be authorized for issuance upon exercise in full of the Rights, the thirty (30) day period set forth above may be extended to the extent necessary, but not more than ninety (90) days after the
Section 11(a)(ii) Trigger Date, in order that the Company may seek stockholder approval for the authorization of such additional shares (such period, as it may be extended, the “Substitution Period”). To the extent that the
Company determines that some action need be taken pursuant to the first and/or second sentences of this Section 11(a)(iii), the Company (x) shall provide, subject to Section 7(e) hereof and the last paragraph of Section 11(a)(ii)
hereof, that such action shall apply uniformly to all outstanding Rights, and (y) may suspend the exercisability of the Rights until the expiration of the Substitution Period in order to seek any authorization of additional shares and/or to
decide the appropriate form of distribution to be made pursuant to such first sentence and to determine the value thereof. In the event of any such suspension, the Company shall make a public announcement, and shall deliver to the Rights Agent a
statement, stating that the exercisability of the Rights has been temporarily suspended. At such time as the suspension is no longer in effect, the Company shall make another public announcement, and deliver to the Rights Agent a statement, so
stating. For purposes of this Section 11(a)(iii), the value of the Common Shares shall be the current per share market price (as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i) hereof) of the Common Shares on the Section 11(a)(ii) Trigger
Date and the value of any Common Stock Equivalent shall be deemed to have the same value as the Common Shares on such date. 

(b) In case the Company shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all holders of Preferred Stock
entitling them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) calendar days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase Preferred Stock (or shares having the same rights, privileges and preferences as the Preferred Stock
(“Equivalent Preferred Stock”)) or securities convertible into Preferred Stock or Equivalent Preferred Stock at a price per share of Preferred Stock or Equivalent Preferred Stock (or having a conversion price per share, if a
security convertible into Preferred Stock or Equivalent Preferred Stock) less than the then current per share market price of the Preferred Stock (as defined in Section 11(d)) on such record date, the Purchase Price to be in effect after such
record date shall be adjusted by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of
shares of Preferred Stock which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Preferred Stock and/or Equivalent Preferred Stock so to be offered (and/or the aggregate initial conversion price of the convertible securities so to be
offered) would purchase at such current market price and the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Preferred Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional Preferred Stock and/or Equivalent Preferred Stock to be
offered for subscription or purchase (or into which the convertible securities so to be offered are initially convertible); provided, however, that in no event shall the consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less
than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company issuable upon exercise of one Right. In case such subscription price may be paid in a consideration part or all of which shall be in a form other than cash, the value of such
consideration shall be as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent. Preferred Stock owned by or held for the account of the Company shall not
be deemed outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Purchase Price shall be
adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. 
 (c) In case the
Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of the Preferred Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving
corporation) of evidences of indebtedness or assets (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend or a dividend payable in Preferred Stock) or subscription rights or warrants (excluding those referred to in Section 11(b) hereof), the Purchase
Price to be in effect after such record date shall be determined by multiplying the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the then current per share market price of the
Preferred Stock on such record date, less the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent) of the portion of the assets or
evidences of indebtedness so to be distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one share of Preferred Stock and the denominator of which shall be such current per share market price of the Preferred Stock; provided,
however, that in no event shall the 

  
 10 

Table of Contents

 
consideration to be paid upon the exercise of one Right be less than the aggregate par value of the shares of capital stock of the Company to be issued upon exercise of one Right. Such
adjustments shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed; and in the event that such distribution is not so made, the Purchase Price shall again be adjusted to be the Purchase Price which would then be in effect if such record
date had not been fixed. 
 (d) (i) Except as otherwise provided herein, for the purpose of any computation hereunder,
the “current per share market price” of any security (a “Security” for the purpose of this Section 11(d)(i)) on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily closing prices per share of such Security
for the thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days (as such term is hereinafter defined) immediately prior to such date; provided, however, that in the event that the current per share market price of the Security is determined during a
period following the announcement by the issuer of such Security of (A) a dividend or distribution on such Security payable in shares of such Security or securities convertible into such shares, or (B) any subdivision, combination or
reclassification of such Security and prior to the expiration of thirty (30) Trading Days after the ex-dividend date for such dividend or distribution, or the record date for such subdivision, combination or reclassification, then, and in each
such case, the current per share market price shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the current market price per share equivalent of such Security. The closing price for each day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such
sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ
Global Select Market or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with respect to securities listed on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Security is listed or admitted to trading or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low
asked prices in the over-the-counter bulletin board market, as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotations System (“NASDAQ”), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority
(“FINRA”) or such other system then in use, or, if on any such date the Security is not quoted by any such organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market maker making a market in
the Security selected by the Board of Directors of the Company. The term “Trading Day” shall mean a day on which the principal national securities exchange on which the Security is listed or admitted to trading is open for the
transaction of business or, if the Security is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, a Business Day. 
 (ii) For the purpose of any computation hereunder, if the Preferred Stock are publicly traded, the “current per share market price” of the Preferred Stock shall be determined in accordance with
the method set forth in Section 11(d)(i). If the Preferred Stock are not publicly traded but the Common Shares are publicly traded, the “current per share market price” of the Preferred Stock shall be conclusively deemed to be the
current per share market price of the Common Shares as determined pursuant to Section 11(d)(i) (appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof), multiplied by 1,000. If
neither the Common Shares nor the Preferred Stock are publicly held or so listed or traded, “current per share market price” shall mean the fair value per share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose
determination shall be described in a statement filed with the Rights Agent. 
 (e) No adjustment in the Purchase Price
shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Purchase Price; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 11(e) are not required to be made shall
be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Section 11 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one ten-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock or one ten-thousandth of any
other share or security as the case may be. Notwithstanding the first sentence of this Section 11(e), any adjustment required by this Section 11 shall be made no later than three (3) years from the date of the transaction which
requires such adjustment. 
 (f) If as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, the holder of
any Right thereafter exercised shall become entitled to receive any shares of capital stock of the Company other than Preferred Stock, the number of such other shares so receivable upon exercise of any Right shall thereafter be subject to adjustment
from time to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as practicable to the provisions with respect to the Preferred Stock contained in Section 11(a) through (c), inclusive, and the provisions of Section 7, Section 9,
Section 10 and Section 13 with respect to the Preferred Stock shall apply on like terms to any such other shares. 

(g) All Rights originally issued by the Company subsequent to any adjustment made to the Purchase Price hereunder shall evidence the
right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, the number of Units of Preferred Stock purchasable from time to time hereunder upon exercise of the Rights, all subject to further adjustment as provided herein.

Table of Contents

 (h) Unless the Company shall have exercised its election as provided in
Section 11(i), upon each adjustment of the Purchase Price as a result of the calculations made in Section 11(b) and Section 11(c), each Right outstanding immediately prior to the making of such adjustment shall thereafter evidence the
right to purchase, at the adjusted Purchase Price, that number of Units of Preferred Stock (calculated to the nearest one ten-millionth of a share of Preferred Stock) obtained by (i) multiplying (x) the number of Units of a share covered
by a Right immediately prior to this adjustment by (y) the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment of the Purchase Price and (ii) dividing the product so obtained by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such
adjustment of the Purchase Price. 
 (i) The Company may elect on or after the date of any adjustment of the Purchase Price
to adjust the number of Rights in substitution for any adjustment in the number of Units of Preferred Stock purchasable upon the exercise of a Right. Each of the Rights outstanding after such adjustment of the number of Rights shall be exercisable
for the number of Units of Preferred Stock for which a Right was exercisable immediately prior to such adjustment. Each Right held of record prior to such adjustment of the number of Rights shall become that number of Rights (calculated to the
nearest one hundred-thousandth) obtained by dividing the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to adjustment of the Purchase Price by the Purchase Price in effect immediately after adjustment of the Purchase Price. The Company shall make a
public announcement of its election to adjust the number of Rights, indicating the record date for the adjustment, and, if known at the time, the amount of the adjustment to be made. This record date may be the date on which the Purchase Price is
adjusted or any day thereafter, but, if the Right Certificates have been distributed, shall be at least ten (10) days later than the date of the public announcement. If Right Certificates have been distributed, upon each adjustment of the
number of Rights pursuant to this Section 11(i), the Company shall, as promptly as practicable, cause to be distributed to holders of record of Right Certificates on such record date Right Certificates evidencing, subject to Section 14
hereof, the additional Rights to which such holders shall be entitled as a result of such adjustment, or, at the option of the Company, shall cause to be distributed to such holders of record in substitution and replacement for the Right
Certificates held by such holders prior to the date of adjustment, and upon surrender thereof, if required by the Company, new Right Certificates evidencing all the Rights to which such holders shall be entitled after such adjustment. Right
Certificates to be so distributed shall be issued, executed and countersigned in the manner provided for herein and shall be registered in the names of the holders of record of Right Certificates on the record date specified in the public
announcement. 
 (j) Irrespective of any adjustment or change in the Purchase Price or the number of Units of Preferred
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Rights, the Right Certificates theretofore and thereafter issued may continue to express the Purchase Price and the number of Units of Preferred Stock which were expressed in the initial Right Certificates
issued hereunder. 
 (k) Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Purchase Price below one
one-thousandth (1/1,000) of the then par value of a share of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights, the Company shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may
validly and legally issue fully paid and non-assessable Preferred Stock at such adjusted Purchase Price. 
 (l) In any case
in which this Section 11 shall require that an adjustment in the Purchase Price be made effective as of a record date for a specified event, the Company may elect to defer until the occurrence of such event the issuing to the holder of any
Right exercised after such record date of the Preferred Stock and other capital stock or securities of the Company, if any, issuable upon such exercise over and above the Preferred Stock and other capital stock or securities of the Company, if any,
issuable upon such exercise on the basis of the Purchase Price in effect prior to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such holder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such
holder’s right to receive such additional shares upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment. 

(m) Anything in this Section 11 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be entitled to make such adjustments in the
Purchase Price, in addition to those adjustments expressly required by this Section 11, as and to the extent that it in its sole discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any (i) combination or subdivision of the Preferred
Stock, (ii) issuance wholly for cash of any Preferred Stock at less than the current market price, (iii) issuance wholly for cash of Preferred Stock or securities which by their terms are convertible into

  
 12 

Table of Contents

 
or exchangeable for Preferred Stock, (iv) dividends on Preferred Stock payable in Preferred Stock or (v) issuance of any rights, options or warrants referred to hereinabove in
Section 11(b), hereafter made by the Company to holders of its Preferred Stock shall not be taxable to such stockholders. 

(n) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that at any time after the date of this Agreement and prior to the
Distribution Date, the Company shall (i) declare and pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or (ii) effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise other
than by payment of dividends in Common Shares) into a greater or lesser number of Common Shares, then in any such case (i) the number of Units of Preferred Stock purchasable after such event upon proper exercise of each Right shall be
determined by multiplying the number of Units of Preferred Stock so purchasable immediately prior to such event by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately before such event and the denominator of
which is the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such event, and (ii) each Common Share outstanding immediately after such event shall have issued with respect to it that number of Rights which each Common Share outstanding
immediately prior to such event had issued with respect to it. The adjustments provided for in this Section 11(n) shall be made successively whenever such a dividend is declared or paid or such a subdivision, combination or consolidation is
effected. 
 Section 12. Certificate of Adjustment. Whenever an adjustment is made as provided in
Section 11 and Section 13 hereof, the Company shall promptly (a) prepare a certificate setting forth such adjustment, and a brief statement of the facts accounting for such adjustment, (b) file with the Rights Agent and with each
transfer agent for the Common Shares or the Preferred Stock a copy of such certificate and (c) if such adjustment occurs following a Distribution Date, mail a brief summary thereof to each holder of a Right Certificate in accordance with
Section 25 hereof. The Rights Agent shall be fully protected in relying on any such certificate and on any adjustment therein contained and shall not be obligated or responsible for calculating any adjustment nor shall it be deemed to have
knowledge of such an adjustment unless and until it shall have received such certificate. 
 Section 13.
Consolidation, Merger or Sale or Transfer of Assets or Earning Power. In the event that, at any time after a Person becomes an Acquiring Person, directly or indirectly, (i) the Company shall consolidate with, or merge with and into, any
other Person, (ii) any Person shall consolidate with the Company, or merge with and into the Company and the Company shall be the continuing or surviving corporation of such merger and, in connection with such merger, all or part of the Common
Shares shall be changed into or exchanged for stock or other securities of any other Person (or of the Company) or cash or any other property, or (iii) the Company shall sell or otherwise transfer (or one or more of its Subsidiaries shall sell
or otherwise transfer), in one or more transactions, assets or earning power aggregating 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any other Person other than the Company or one or more of
its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that (A) each holder of a Right (except as otherwise provided herein) shall thereafter have the right to receive, upon the exercise thereof at a price
equal to the then current Purchase Price multiplied by the number of Units of Preferred Stock for which a Right is then exercisable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and in lieu of Preferred Stock, such number of Common Shares of such
other Person (including the Company as successor thereto or as the surviving corporation) as shall equal the result obtained by (x) multiplying the then current Purchase Price by the number of Units of Preferred Stock for which a Right is then
exercisable and dividing that product by (y) 50% of the then current per share market price of the Common Shares of such other Person (determined pursuant to Section 11(d) hereof) on the date of consummation of such consolidation, merger,
sale or transfer; (B) the issuer of such Common Shares shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by virtue of such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer, all the obligations and duties of the Company pursuant to this Agreement;
(C) the term “Company” shall thereafter be deemed to refer to such issuer; and (D) such issuer shall take such steps (including, but not limited to, the reservation of a sufficient number of its Common Shares in accordance
with Section 9 hereof) in connection with such consummation as may be necessary to assure that the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to the Common Shares thereafter deliverable upon
the exercise of the Rights. The Company covenants and agrees that it shall not consummate any such consolidation, merger, sale or transfer unless prior thereto the Company and such issuer shall have executed and delivered to the Rights Agent a
supplemental agreement so providing. The Company shall not enter into any transaction of the kind referred to in this Section 13 if at the time of such transaction there are any rights, warrants, instruments or securities outstanding or any
agreements or arrangements which, as a result of the consummation of such transaction, would eliminate or substantially diminish the benefits intended to be afforded by the Rights. The provisions of this Section 13 shall similarly apply to
successive mergers or 

  
 13 

Table of Contents

 
consolidations or sales or other transfers. For purposes hereof, the “earning power” of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be determined in good faith by the Company’s
Board of Directors on the basis of the operating earnings of each business operated by the Company and its Subsidiaries during the three (3) fiscal years preceding the date of such determination (or, in the case of any business not operated by
the Company or any Subsidiary during three (3) full fiscal years preceding such date, during the period such business was operated by the Company or any Subsidiary). 
 Section 14. Fractional Rights and Fractional Shares. 
 (a) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Rights or to distribute Right Certificates which evidence fractional Rights. In lieu of such fractional Rights, there shall be paid to the
registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Rights would otherwise be issuable, an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of a whole Right. For the purposes of this
Section 14(a), the current market value of a whole Right shall be the closing price of the Rights for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date on which such fractional Rights would have been otherwise issuable. The closing price for any
day shall be the last sale price, regular way, or, in case no such sale takes place on such day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, regular way, in either case as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system with
respect to securities listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, as reported in the principal consolidated transaction reporting system
with respect to securities listed on the principal national securities exchange on which the Rights are listed or admitted to trading or, if the Rights are not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange, the last quoted price
or, if not so quoted, the average of the high bid and low asked prices in the over-the-counter bulletin board market, as reported by NASDAQ, FINRA or such other system then in use or, if on any such date the Rights are not quoted by any such
organization, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as furnished by a professional market-maker making a market in the Rights selected by the Board of Directors of the Company. If on any such date no such market maker is making a market in
the Rights, the fair value of the Rights on such date as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company shall be used. 
 (b) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of a share of Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are integral multiples of Units (subject to appropriate adjustment in the case of a
subdivision or combination) of Preferred Stock) upon exercise of the Rights or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Preferred Stock (other than fractions which are integral multiples of Units of Preferred Stock). Fractions of a share
of Preferred Stock in integral multiples of Units of Preferred Stock may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by depositary receipts, pursuant to an appropriate agreement between the Company and a depositary selected by it; provided,
that such agreement shall provide that the holders of such depositary receipts shall have all the rights, privileges and preferences to which they are entitled as beneficial owners of the Preferred Stock represented by such depositary receipts. In
lieu of fractional Preferred Stock that are not integral multiples of one one-thousandth of a share of Preferred Stock, the Company shall pay to each registered holder of Right Certificates at the time such Rights are exercised as herein provided an
amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current market value of one share of Preferred Stock as the fraction of one share of Preferred Stock that such holder would otherwise receive upon the exercise of the aggregate number of rights
exercised by such holder. For the purposes of this Section 14(b), the current market value of the Preferred Stock shall be the closing price of the Preferred Stock (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof)
for the Trading Day immediately prior to the date of such exercise. 
 (c) The holder of a Right by the acceptance of the
Right expressly waives any right to receive fractional Rights or fractional shares upon exercise of a Right (except as provided above). 
 
Section 15. Rights of Action. All rights of action in respect of this Agreement, excepting the rights of action given to the Rights Agent under Section 18 hereof, are vested in the respective registered holders of the Right
Certificates (and, prior to the Distribution Date, the registered holders of the Common Shares); and any registered holder of any Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares) may, without the consent of the Rights
Agent or of the holder of any other Right Certificate (or, prior to the Distribution Date, of the Common Shares), on his own behalf and for his own benefit, enforce, and may institute and maintain any suit, action or proceeding against the Company
to enforce, or otherwise act in respect of, his right to exercise the Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate in the manner provided in such Right Certificate and in this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing or any remedies available to the
holders of Rights, it is specifically acknowledged that the holders of Rights would not have an adequate remedy at law for any breach of this Agreement and will be entitled to specific performance of the obligations under, and injunctive relief
against actual or threatened violations of the obligations of any Person subject to, this Agreement.

 Section 16. Agreement of Right Holders. Every holder of a Right,
by accepting the same, consents and agrees with the Company and the Rights Agent and with every other holder of a Right that: 

(a) prior to the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferable only in connection with the transfer of the Common Shares;

 (b) after the Distribution Date, the Right Certificates are transferable only on the registry books maintained by the
Rights Agent if surrendered at the principal office of the Rights Agent, duly endorsed or accompanied by a proper instrument of transfer with a completed form of certification; and 

(c) the Company and the Rights Agent may deem and treat the person in whose name the Right Certificate (or, prior to the
Distribution Date, the associated Common Shares certificate or book entry Common Shares) is registered as the absolute owner thereof and of the Rights evidenced thereby (notwithstanding any notations of ownership or writing on the Right Certificates
or the associated Common Shares certificate (or notices provided to holders of book entry Common Shares) made by anyone other than the Company or the Rights Agent) for all purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Rights Agent shall be
affected by any notice to the contrary. 
 Section 17. Right Certificate Holder Not Deemed a
Stockholder. No holder, as such, of any Right Certificate shall be entitled to vote, receive dividends or be deemed for any purpose the holder of the Preferred Stock or any other securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on the
exercise of the Rights represented thereby nor shall anything contained herein or in any Right Certificate be construed to confer upon the holder of any Right Certificate, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to
vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold consent to any corporate action, or to receive notice of meetings or other actions affecting stockholders (except as
provided in Section 25 hereof), or to receive dividends or subscription rights, or otherwise, until the Right or Rights evidenced by such Right Certificate shall have been exercised in accordance with the provisions hereof. 

Section 18. Concerning the Rights Agent. The Company agrees to pay to the Rights Agent reasonable
compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and, from time to time, on demand of the Rights Agent, its reasonable expenses and counsel fees and other disbursements incurred in the administration and execution of this Agreement and the
exercise and performance of its duties hereunder. The Company also agrees to indemnify the Rights Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, or expense, incurred without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the
part of the Rights Agent, for anything done or omitted by the Rights Agent in connection with the acceptance and administration of this Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending against any claim or liability in connection therewith.
The indemnification provided for hereunder shall survive the expiration of the Rights and the termination of this Agreement. The costs and expenses of enforcing this right of indemnification shall also be paid by the Company. 

The Rights Agent may conclusively rely upon and shall be protected and shall incur no liability for or in respect of any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in connection with its administration of this Agreement in reliance upon any Right Certificate or certificate for Preferred Stock or for other securities of the Company, instrument of assignment or transfer, power of
attorney, endorsement, affidavit, letter, notice, direction, consent, certificate, statement, or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to be signed, executed and, where necessary, verified or acknowledged, by the proper person or
persons. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Rights Agent be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the
Rights Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of the action. 

Section 19. Merger or Consolidation or Change of Name of Rights Agent. Any corporation into which the Rights
Agent or any successor Rights Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to
the corporate trust business of the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent, shall be the successor to the Rights Agent under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
provided that such Person would be eligible for appointment as a successor Rights Agent under the provisions of Section 21 hereof. In case at the time such successor Rights Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Agreement, any of the
Right Certificates shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature of the predecessor Rights Agent and 

  
 15 

Table of Contents

 
deliver such Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, any successor Rights Agent may countersign such Right
Certificates either in the name of the predecessor Rights Agent or in the name of the successor Rights Agent; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Agreement.

 In case at any time the name of the Rights Agent shall be changed and at such time any of the Right Certificates shall have
been countersigned but not delivered, the Rights Agent may adopt the countersignature under its prior name and deliver Right Certificates so countersigned; and in case at that time any of the Right Certificates shall not have been countersigned, the
Rights Agent may countersign such Right Certificates either in its prior name or in its changed name; and in all such cases such Right Certificates shall have the full force provided in the Right Certificates and in this Agreement. 

Section 20. Duties of Rights Agent. The Rights Agent undertakes the duties and obligations expressly set
forth in this Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Rights Agent. The Rights Agent shall perform those duties and obligations upon the following terms and conditions, by all of which the Company
and the holders of Right Certificates, by their acceptance thereof, shall be bound: 
 (a) Before the Rights Agent acts or
refrains from acting, it may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Company), and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Rights Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it
in good faith and in accordance with such opinion. 
 (b) Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement
the Rights Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein
specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a certificate signed by any one of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and President, a Vice President, the Treasurer or the Secretary of the
Company and delivered to the Rights Agent; and such certificate shall be full authorization to the Rights Agent for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it under the provisions of this Agreement in reliance upon such certificate.

 (c) The Rights Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

 (d) The Rights Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this
Agreement or in the Right Certificates (except as to its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, but all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only. 

(e) The Rights Agent shall not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Agreement or the execution and
delivery hereof (except the due execution hereof by the Rights Agent) or in respect of the validity or execution of any Right Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any
covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Right Certificate; nor shall it be responsible for any adjustment required under the provisions of Section 11 or Section 13 hereof or responsible for the manner, method or amount
of any such adjustment or the ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment (except with respect to the exercise of Rights evidenced by Right Certificates after actual notice of any such adjustment); nor shall it by
any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any Right Certificate or as to whether any Preferred Stock will,
when so issued, be validly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable. 
 (f) The Company agrees that it will
perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Rights Agent for the carrying out or performing
by the Rights Agent of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (g) The Rights Agent is hereby authorized and directed to
accept instructions with respect to the performance of its duties hereunder from any one of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and President, a Vice President, the Secretary or the Treasurer of the Company, and to apply to such
officers for advice or instructions in connection with its duties, and it shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with instructions of any such officer. Any application by the Rights Agent
for written 

  
 16 

Table of Contents

 
instructions from the Company may, at the option of the Rights Agent, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Rights Agent under this Agreement and the date on or
after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Rights Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Rights Agent in accordance with a proposal included in any such application on or after the
date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to an earlier
date) unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Rights Agent shall have received, in response to such application, written instructions with respect to the proposed action or omission specifying
a different action to be taken or omitted. 
 (h) The Rights Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of
the Rights Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Rights or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act
as fully and freely as though it were not Rights Agent under this Agreement. Nothing herein shall preclude the Rights Agent from acting in any other capacity for the Company or for any other legal entity. 

(i) The Rights Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either
itself or by or through its attorneys or agents, and the Rights Agent shall not be answerable or accountable for any act, default, neglect or misconduct of any such attorneys or agents or for any loss to the Company resulting from any such act,
default, neglect or misconduct, provided reasonable care was exercised in the selection and continued employment thereof. 

(j) No provision of this Agreement shall require the Rights Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of its rights if there shall be reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnification against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it. 
 (k) The Rights Agent shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any fact, event
or determination (including, without limitation, any dates or events defined in this Agreement or the designation of any Person as an Acquiring Person, Affiliate or Associate) under this Agreement unless and until the Rights Agent shall be
specifically notified in writing by the Company of such fact, event or determination. 
 Section 21.
Change of Rights Agent. The Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent may resign and be discharged from its duties under this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice in writing mailed to the Company and, in the event that the
Rights Agent or one of its Affiliates is not also the transfer agent for the Company, to each transfer agent of the Common Shares and the Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail. In the event the transfer agency relationship in effect
between the Company and the Rights Agent terminates, the Rights Agent will be deemed to have resigned automatically and will be discharged from its duties under this Agreement as of the effective date of such termination, and the Company shall be
responsible for sending any required notice. The Company may remove the Rights Agent or any successor Rights Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice in writing, mailed to the Rights Agent or successor Rights Agent, as the case may be, and to
each transfer agent of the Common Shares and the Preferred Stock by registered or certified mail. If the Rights Agent shall resign or be removed or shall otherwise become incapable of acting, the Company shall appoint a successor to the Rights
Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of thirty (30) days after giving notice of such removal or after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated
Rights Agent or by the holder of a Right Certificate (who shall, with such notice, submit his Right Certificate for inspection by the Company), then the registered holder of any Right Certificate may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for
the appointment of a new Rights Agent. Any successor Rights Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a Person organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state of the United States, in good
standing, which is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and is subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and which has at the time of its appointment as Rights Agent, along with its Affiliates, a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50 million. After appointment, the successor Rights Agent shall be vested with the same powers, rights, duties and responsibilities as if it had been originally named as Rights Agent without further act
or deed; but the predecessor Rights Agent shall deliver and transfer to the successor Rights Agent any property at the time held by it hereunder, and execute and deliver any further assurance, conveyance, act or deed necessary for the purpose. Not
later than the effective date of any such appointment the Company shall file notice thereof in writing with the predecessor Rights Agent and each transfer agent of the Common Shares and the Preferred Stock. Failure to give any notice provided for in
this Section 21, however, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of the resignation or removal of the Rights Agent or the appointment of the successor Rights Agent, as the case may be.

 Section 22. Issuance of New Right Certificates. Notwithstanding
any of the provisions of this Agreement or of the Rights to the contrary, the Company may, at its option, issue new Right Certificates evidencing Rights in such form as may be approved by its Board of Directors to reflect any adjustment or change in
the Purchase Price and the number or kind or class of shares or other securities or property purchasable under the Right Certificates made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In addition, in connection with the issuance or sale of
Common Shares following the Distribution Date and prior to the earlier of the Redemption Date and the Close of Business on the Final Expiration Date, the Company may with respect to shares of Common Shares so issued or sold pursuant to (i) the
exercise of stock options, (ii) under any employment plan or arrangement, (iii) upon the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities, notes or debentures issued by the Company or (iv) a contractual obligation of the Company, in
each case existing prior to the Distribution Date, issue Right Certificates representing the appropriate number of Rights in connection with such issuance or sale. 
 Section 23. Redemption. 
 (a) The
Board of Directors of the Company may, at its option, at any time prior to such time as any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, redeem all but not less than all the then outstanding Rights at a redemption price of $0.001 per Right, appropriately
adjusted to reflect ny stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date hereof (such redemption price being hereinafter referred to as the “Redemption Price”). The redemption of the Rights by the Board of
Directors may be made effective at such time, on such basis and subject to such conditions as the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. 
 (b) In the event the Company receives a Qualifying Offer and the Board of Directors has not redeemed the outstanding Rights or exempted such offer from the terms of this Agreement or called a special
meeting of stockholders by the end of the ninetieth (90th) Business Day following the commencement (or, if later, the first existence) of a Qualifying Offer, for the purpose of voting on whether or not to exempt such Qualifying Offer from the
terms of this Agreement, holders of record (or their duly authorized proxy) of at least 10% of the shares of Common Shares then outstanding may submit to the Board of Directors, not earlier than ninety (90) Business Days nor later than one
hundred twenty (120) Business Days following the commencement (or, if later, the first existence) of such Qualifying Offer, a written demand complying with the terms of this Section 23(b) (the “Special Meeting Demand”)
directing the Board of Directors to submit to a vote of stockholders at a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company (a “Special Meeting”) a resolution exempting such Qualifying Offer from the provisions of this Agreement
(the “Qualifying Offer Resolution”). For purposes of a Special Meeting Demand, the record date for determining holders of record eligible to make a Special Meeting Demand shall be the ninetieth (90th) Business Day following
commencement (or, if later, the first existence) of a Qualifying Offer. The Board of Directors shall take such actions as are necessary or desirable to cause the Qualifying Offer Resolution to be so submitted to a vote of stockholders at a Special
Meeting to be convened within ninety (90) Business Days following the Special Meeting Demand (the “Special Meeting Period”); provided, however, that if the Company at any time during the Special Meeting Period and prior to a
vote on the Qualifying Offer Resolution enters into a Definitive Acquisition Agreement, the Special Meeting Period may be extended (and any special meeting called in connection therewith may be cancelled) if the Qualifying Offer Resolution will be
separately submitted to a vote at the same meeting as the Definitive Acquisition Agreement. A Special Meeting Demand must be delivered to the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company and must set forth as to the
stockholders of record making the request (x) the names and addresses of such stockholders, as they appear on the Company’s books and records, (y) the number of Common Shares which are owned of record by each of such stockholders, and
(z) in the case of Common Shares that are beneficially owned by another Person, an executed certification by the holder of record that such holder has executed such Special Meeting Demand only after obtaining instructions to do so from such
beneficial owner and attaching evidence thereof. Subject to the requirements of applicable law, the Board of Directors may take a position in favor of or opposed to the adoption of the Qualifying Offer Resolution, or no position with respect to the
Qualifying Offer Resolution, as it determines to be appropriate in the exercise of its duties. In the event that no Person has become an Acquiring Person prior to the redemption date referred to in this Section 23(b), and the Qualifying Offer
continues to be a Qualifying Offer and either (i) the Special Meeting is not convened on or prior to the last day of the Special Meeting Period (the “Outside Meeting Date”), or (ii) if, at the Special Meeting at which a
quorum is present, a majority of the shares of Common Shares present or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon as of the record date for the Special Meeting selected by the Board of Directors shall vote in favor of
the Qualifying Offer Resolution, then the Qualifying Offer shall be 

  
 18 

Table of Contents

 
deemed exempt from the application of this Agreement to such Qualifying Offer so long as it remains a Qualifying Offer, such exemption to be effective on the Close of Business on the tenth
(10th) Business Day after (i) the Outside Meeting Date or (ii) the date on which the results of the vote on the Qualifying Offer Resolution at the Special Meeting are certified as official by the appointed inspectors of election for
the Special Meeting, as the case may be (the “Exemption Date”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no action or vote, including action by written consent, by stockholders not in compliance with the provisions of this
Section 23(b) shall serve to exempt any offer from the terms of this Agreement. The Company shall promptly notify the Rights Agent in writing upon the occurrence of the Exemption Date and, if such notification is given orally, the Company shall
confirm same in writing on or prior to the Business Day next following. Until such notice is received by the Rights Agent, the Rights Agent may presume conclusively for all purposes that the Exemption Date has not occurred. 

(c) Immediately upon the time of the effectiveness of the redemption of the Rights pursuant to paragraph (a) of this
Section 23 or such earlier time as may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in the action ordering such redemption (although not earlier than the time of such action) (such time the “Redemption Date”), and
without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights shall terminate and the only right thereafter of the holders of Rights shall be to receive the Redemption Price. The Company shall promptly give public notice of any
such redemption; provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, any such notice shall not affect the validity of such redemption. Within ten (10) days after such action of the Board of Directors ordering the
redemption of the Rights pursuant to paragraph (a), the Company shall mail a notice of redemption to all the holders of the then outstanding Rights at their last addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent or, prior to the
Distribution Date, on the registry books of the transfer agent for the Common Shares. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. If the payment of the Redemption
Price is not included with such notice, each such notice shall state the method by which the payment of the Redemption Price will be made. Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates or Associates may redeem, acquire or purchase for value any
Rights at any time in any manner other than that specifically set forth in this Section 23 or in Section 24 hereof, other than in connection with the purchase of Common Shares prior to the Distribution Date. 

(d) Immediately upon the Close of Business on the Exemption Date, without any further action and without any notice, the right to
exercise the Rights with respect to the Qualifying Offer will terminate. 
 Section 24. Exchange.

 (a) The Board of Directors of the Company may, at its option, at any time after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person,
exchange all or part of the then outstanding and exercisable Rights (which shall not include Rights that have become void pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) for Common Shares at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per
Right (such exchange ratio being hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange Ratio”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Directors shall not be empowered to effect such exchange at any time after any Person (other than the
Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, any employee benefit plan of the Company or any such Subsidiary, or any entity holding Common Shares for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan), together with all Affiliates and Associates of such Person,
becomes the Beneficial Owner of a majority of the Common Shares then outstanding. 
 (b) Immediately upon the action of the
Board of Directors of the Company ordering the exchange of any Rights pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 24 and without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise such Rights shall terminate and the only right
thereafter of a holder of such Rights shall be to receive that number of Common Shares equal to the number of such Rights held by such holder multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The Company shall promptly give public notice of any such exchange;
provided, however, that the failure to give, or any defect in, such notice shall not affect the validity of such exchange. The Company promptly shall mail a notice of any such exchange to all of the holders of such Rights at their last
addresses as they appear upon the registry books of the Rights Agent. Any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be deemed given, whether or not the holder receives the notice. Each such notice of exchange will state the method
by which the exchange of the Common Shares for Rights will be effected and, in the event of any partial exchange, the number of Rights which will be exchanged. Any partial exchange shall be effected pro rata based on the number of
Rights (other than Rights which have become void pursuant to the provisions of Section 11(a)(ii) hereof) held by each holder of Rights. 
 (c) In any exchange pursuant to this Section 24, the Company, at its option, may substitute Preferred Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for Common Shares exchangeable for Rights, at the initial
rate of Units of Preferred 

  
 19 

Table of Contents

 
Stock (or an appropriate number of Common Stock Equivalents) for each Common Share, as appropriately adjusted to reflect adjustments in the voting rights of the Preferred Stock pursuant to the
terms thereof, so that the fraction of a share of Preferred Stock delivered in lieu of each Common Share shall have the same voting rights as one Common Share. 
 (d) In the event that there shall not be sufficient Common Shares, Preferred Stock or Common Stock Equivalents authorized by the Company’s certificate of incorporation and not outstanding or
subscribed for, or reserved or otherwise committed for issuance for purposes other than upon exercise of Rights, to permit any exchange of Rights as contemplated in accordance with this Section 24, the Company shall take all such action as may
be necessary to authorize additional Common Shares, Preferred Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for issuance upon exchange of the Rights. 
 (e) The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Common Shares or to distribute certificates which evidence fractional Common Shares. In lieu of such fractional Common Shares, the Company
shall pay to the registered holders of the Right Certificates with regard to which such fractional Common Shares would otherwise be issuable an amount in cash equal to the same fraction of the current per share market value of a whole Common Share.
For the purposes of this paragraph (e), the current per share market value of a whole Common Share shall be the closing price of a Common Share (as determined pursuant to the second sentence of Section 11(d)(i) hereof) for the Trading Day
immediately prior to the date of exchange pursuant to this Section 24. 
 Section 25. Notice of
Certain Events. 
 (a) In case the Company shall after the Distribution Date propose (i) to pay any dividend
payable in stock of any class to the holders of its Preferred Stock or to make any other distribution to the holders of its Preferred Stock (other than a regular quarterly cash dividend), (ii) to offer to the holders of its Preferred Stock
rights or warrants to subscribe for or to purchase any additional Preferred Stock or shares of stock of any class or any other securities, rights or options, (iii) to effect any reclassification of its Preferred Stock (other than a
reclassification involving only the subdivision or combination of outstanding Preferred Stock), (iv) to effect any consolidation or merger into or with, or to effect any sale or other transfer (or to permit one or more of its Subsidiaries to
effect any sale or other transfer), in one or more transactions, of 50% or more of the assets or earning power of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to, any other Person, (v) to effect the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the Company, or (vi) to declare or pay any dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or to effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the Common Shares (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of dividends in
Common Shares), then, in each such case, the Company shall give to each holder of a Right Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice of such proposed action, which shall specify the record date for the purposes of such stock
dividend, or distribution of rights or warrants, or the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, liquidation, dissolution, or winding up is to take place and the date of participation therein by the holders of the
Common Shares and/or Preferred Stock, if any such date is to be fixed, and such notice shall be so given in the case of any action covered by clause (i) or (ii) above at least ten (10) days prior to the record date for determining
holders of the Preferred Stock for purposes of such action, and in the case of any such other action, at least ten (10) days prior to the date of the taking of such proposed action or the date of participation therein by the holders of the
Common Shares and/or Preferred Stock, whichever shall be the earlier. 
 (b) In case any event set forth in
Section 11(a)(ii) hereof shall occur, then the Company shall as soon as practicable thereafter give to each holder of a Right Certificate, in accordance with Section 26 hereof, a notice of the occurrence of such event, which notice shall
describe such event and the consequences of such event to holders of Rights under Section 11(a)(ii) hereof.

 CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATIONS 
 of 

SERIES A JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK 
 of 
 SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE, INC. 

(Pursuant to Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) 

Smith Micro Software, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (hereinafter
called the “Corporation”), hereby certifies that the following resolution was adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation as required by Section 151 of the General Corporation Law: 

RESOLVED, that pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Board of Directors of this Corporation (hereinafter called the
“Board of Directors” or the “Board”) in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), the Board of Directors
hereby creates a series of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), of the Corporation and hereby states the designation and number of shares, and fixes the relative rights, preferences, and limitations
thereof as follows: 
 Section 1. Designation and Amount. The shares of this series shall be designated as
“Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and the number of shares constituting the Series A Preferred Stock shall be One Hundred Thousand (100,000). Such number
of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors; provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus
the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into Series A Preferred Stock. 

Section 2. Dividends and Distributions. 
 (A) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series of Preferred Stock (or any other stock) ranking prior and superior to the Series A Preferred Stock with respect to dividends,
the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the last day of March,
June, September and December in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a “Quarterly Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a
share of Series A Preferred Stock, in an amount (if any) per share (rounded to the nearest cent), subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and
1,000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the
Corporation or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect
a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in
each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. 

Table of Contents

 (B) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series A
Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock). 

(C) Dividends due pursuant to paragraph (A) of this Section shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case
dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A
Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid
dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series A Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share
basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon,
which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof. 

Section 3. Voting Rights. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:

 (A) Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall
entitle the holder thereof to 1,000 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or
effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then
in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. 

(B) Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, including any other Certificate of Designations creating a
series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, or by law, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote
together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation. 
 (C) Except as set forth
herein, or as otherwise required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth
herein) for taking any corporate action. 
 Section 4. Certain Restrictions. 

(A) Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series A Preferred Stock as provided in
Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not:

 (i) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series A Preferred Stock; 

Table of Contents

 (ii) declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock
ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series A Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are
payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled; or 

(iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series A Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation
ranking junior (as to dividends and upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series A Preferred Stock. 

(B) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any
shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner. 

Section 5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series A Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation
in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and canceled promptly after the acquisition thereof. The Corporation shall take all such actions as are necessary to cause all such shares to become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock that may
be reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein or in the Certificate of Incorporation, including any Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or
any similar stock, or as otherwise required by law. 
 Section 6. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up. Upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to
1,000 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of shares of Common Stock plus an amount equal to any accrued and unpaid dividends. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common
Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or
lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by
multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately
prior to such event. 
 Section 7. Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any
consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case each share of Series A Preferred
Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property
(payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or
effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then
in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event. 

Table of Contents

 Section 8. Amendment. The Certificate of Incorporation shall not be amended in
any manner, including in a merger or consolidation, which would alter, change, or repeal the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of at
least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class. 

Section 9. Rank. The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and upon liquidation,
dissolution and winding up, junior to all series of Preferred Stock, and shall rank senior to the Common Stock as to such matters. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Certificate of Designations is executed on behalf of the Corporation by its duly authorized officer this
             day of                     , 2012.

 EXHIBIT C 
 SUMMARY OF RIGHTS TO PURCHASE 
 PREFERRED STOCK OF SMITH MICRO SOFTWARE,
INC. 
 On April 19, 2012, the Board of Directors of Smith Micro Software, Inc. (the “Company”)
declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Shares”) outstanding on April 27, 2012 (the
“Record Date”) to the stockholders of record on that date. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth (1/1,000) of a share (each such one one-thousandth (1/1,000) of a share
being a “Unit”) of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), of the Company, at a price of Ten Dollars ($10.00) per Unit of Preferred Stock (the
“Purchase Price”), subject to adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Stockholder Rights Agreement, dated April 24, 2012 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and
Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”). 
 Until the earlier to occur of
(i) ten (10) days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons, with certain exceptions (an “Acquiring Person”), has acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the
outstanding Common Shares or (ii) ten (10) Business Days (or such later date as may be determined by action of the Board of Directors prior to such time as any Person becomes an Acquiring Person) following the commencement of, or
announcement of an intention to make, a tender offer or exchange offer the consummation of which would result in the beneficial ownership by a person or group of 20% or more of the outstanding Common Shares (the earlier of such dates being called
the “Distribution Date”), the Rights will be evidenced, with respect to any of the Common Share certificates outstanding as of the Record Date, by such Common Share certificate with a copy of this Summary of Rights attached thereto.

 The Stockholder Rights Agreement 
 The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Distribution Date, the Rights will be transferred with and only with the Common Shares. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or expiration of
the Rights), new Common Share certificates issued after the Record Date or upon transfer or new issuance of Common Shares will contain a notation incorporating the Rights Agreement by reference. Until the Distribution Date (or earlier redemption or
expiration of the Rights), the surrender for transfer of any certificates for Common Shares outstanding as of the Record Date, even without such notation or a copy of this Summary of Rights being attached thereto, will also constitute the transfer
of the Rights associated with the Common Shares represented by such certificate. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Right Certificates”) will be mailed to holders of
record of the Common Shares as of the Close of Business on the Distribution Date and such separate Right Certificates alone will evidence the Rights. 
 The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date. The Rights will expire on April 17, 2015 (the “Final Expiration Date”), unless the Final Expiration Date is extended or
unless the Rights are earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company, in each case, as described below. 
 The Purchase Price
payable, and the number of shares of Preferred Stock or other securities or property issuable, upon exercise of the Rights are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution (i) in the event of a stock dividend on, or a
subdivision, combination or reclassification of, the Preferred Stock, (ii) upon the grant to holders of the Preferred Stock of certain rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase Preferred Stock at a price, or securities convertible into
Preferred Stock with a conversion price, less than the then current market price of the Preferred Stock or (iii) upon the distribution to holders of the Preferred Stock of evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding regular periodic cash
dividends paid out of earnings or retained earnings or dividends payable in Preferred Stock) or of subscription rights or warrants (other than those referred to above). 
 The number of outstanding Rights and the number of Units of Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of each Right are also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split of the Common Shares or a
stock dividend on the Common Shares payable in Common Shares or subdivisions, consolidations or combinations of the Common Shares occurring, in any such case, prior to the Distribution Date. 

Table of Contents

 Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of the Rights will not be redeemable. Each share
of Preferred Stock will be entitled to a quarterly dividend payment of 1,000 times the dividend declared per Common Share. In the event of liquidation, the holders of the Preferred Stock will be entitled to an aggregate payment of 1,000 times the
aggregate payment made per Common Share. Each share of Preferred Stock will have 1,000 votes, voting together with the Common Shares. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other transaction in which Common Shares are exchanged, each share of
Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive 1,000 times the amount received per Common Share. These rights are protected by customary anti-dilution provisions. 
 Because of the nature of the Preferred Stock dividend, liquidation and voting rights, the value of the one Unit of Preferred Stock purchasable upon exercise of each Right should approximate the value of
one Common Share. 
 Effects of the Rights 
 From and after the time any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, any Rights acquired or beneficially owned by an Acquiring Person or an Associate or Affiliate of an Acquiring Person (as such terms are
defined in the Rights Agreement) on or after the earlier of (x) the date of such event and (y) the Distribution Date (as such term is defined in the Rights Agreement) shall become void, and any holder of such Rights shall thereafter
have no right to exercise such Rights. 
 “Flip-In” Provisions. In the event that any person becomes an
Acquiring Person, proper provision shall be made so that each holder of a Right, other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person and its Affiliates and Associates (which will thereafter be void), will thereafter have the right to
receive upon exercise that number of Common Shares having a market value of two times the exercise price of the Right. If the Company does not have sufficient Common Shares to satisfy such obligation to issue Common Shares, or if the Board of
Directors so elects, the Company shall deliver upon payment of the exercise price of a Right an amount of cash or securities equivalent in value to the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of a Right; provided that, if the Company fails to meet such
obligation within thirty (30) days following the date a Person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Company must deliver, upon exercise of a Right but without requiring payment of the exercise price then in effect, Common Shares (to the extent
available) and cash equal in value to the difference between the value of the Common Shares otherwise issuable upon the exercise of a Right and the exercise price then in effect. The Board of Directors may extend the thirty (30) day period
described above for up to an additional sixty (60) days to permit the taking of action that may be necessary to authorize sufficient additional Common Shares to permit the issuance of Common Shares upon the exercise in full of the Rights.

 At any time after any Person becomes an Acquiring Person and prior to the acquisition by any person or group of a majority of
the outstanding Common Shares, the Board of Directors of the Company may exchange the Rights (other than Rights owned by such person or group which have become void), in whole or in part, at an exchange ratio of one Common Share per Right (subject
to adjustment). 
 “Flip-Over” Provisions. In the event that, at any time after a Person becomes an Acquiring
Person, the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction or 50% or more of its consolidated assets or earning power are sold, proper provision will be made so that each holder of a Right will thereafter have the right to
receive, upon the exercise thereof at the then current exercise price of the Right, that number of shares of common stock of the acquiring company which at the time of such transaction will have a market value of two times the exercise price of
the Right. 
 With certain exceptions, no adjustment in the Purchase Price will be required until cumulative adjustments
require an adjustment of at least 1% in such Purchase Price. No fractional Preferred Stock will be issued (other than fractions which are integral multiples of Units of Preferred Stock, which may, at the election of the Company, be evidenced by
depositary receipts) and in lieu thereof, an adjustment in cash will be made based on the market price of the Preferred Stock on the last Trading Day prior to the date of exercise. 

Table of Contents

 At any time prior to the time any Person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Board of Directors
of the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”). The redemption of the Rights may be made effective at such time, on such basis and with such conditions as the
Board of Directors in its sole discretion may establish. Immediately upon any redemption of the Rights, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the Redemption Price. 

The Rights Agreement further provides that if the Company receives a Qualifying Offer (that has not been terminated and continues to be a
Qualifying Offer for the period hereinafter described) and the Board of Directors has not redeemed the outstanding Rights, exempted such Qualifying Offer from the terms of the Rights Agreement or called a special meeting of the stockholders for the
purpose of voting on whether or not to exempt such Qualifying Offer from the terms of the Rights Agreement, then stockholders representing at least 10% of the shares of Common Stock then outstanding may request that the Board of Directors call a
special meeting of stockholders to vote to exempt the Qualifying Offer from the operation of the Rights Agreement, such notice to be delivered not earlier than ninety (90), nor later than one hundred twenty (120), Business Days following the
commencement of such offer. The Board of Directors must then call and hold such a meeting to vote on exempting such offer from the terms of the Rights Agreement by the ninetieth (90th) Business Day following receipt of the stockholder demand
for the meeting; provided that such period may be extended if, prior to the vote, the Company enters into an agreement (that is conditioned on the approval by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock) with respect to a
merger, recapitalization, share exchange, or a similar transaction involving the Company or the direct or indirect acquisition of more than 50% of the Company’s consolidated total assets (a “Definitive Acquisition Agreement”),
until the time of the meeting at which the stockholders will be asked to vote on the Definitive Acquisition Agreement. If no Acquiring Person has emerged, the offer continues to be a Qualifying Offer and stockholders representing a majority of the
shares of Common Stock represented at the meeting at which a quorum is present vote in favor of redeeming the rights, then such Qualifying Offer shall be deemed exempt from the Rights Agreement on the date that the vote results are certified. If no
Acquiring Person has emerged and no special meeting is held by the date required, the Rights will be redeemed at the close of business on the tenth (10th) Business Day following that date. 

A Qualifying Offer, in summary terms, is an offer determined by the Board of Directors to have each of the following characteristics
which are generally intended to preclude offers that are coercive, abusive, or clearly illegitimate: 
  

	 	•	 	 is an all-cash tender offer or stock exchange offer or combination thereof for any and all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company;

  

	 	•	 	 is an offer whose per-share price represents a reasonable premium over (a) the highest market price of the Common Stock in the preceding eighteen
(18) months and (b) the value per outstanding share of cash and cash equivalents held by the Company, with, in the case of an offer that includes shares of common stock of the offeror, such per-share offer price being determined using the
lowest reported market price for common stock of the offeror during the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding and the five (5) Trading Days immediately following the commencement of the offer; 

 

	 	•	 	 is an offer which, within twenty (20) Business Days after the commencement date of the offer (or within ten (10) Business Days after any
increase in the offer consideration), does not result in a nationally recognized investment banking firm retained by the Board rendering an opinion to the Board that the consideration being offered to the Company’s stockholders is either unfair
or inadequate; 

  

	 	•	 	 is subject only to the minimum tender condition described below and other customary terms and conditions, which conditions shall not include any
requirements with respect to the offeror or its agents being permitted to conduct any due diligence with respect to the books, records, management, accountants and other outside advisers of the Company; 

Table of Contents

	 	•	 	 is accompanied by an irrevocable written commitment by the offeror to the Company that the offer will remain open for at least one hundred twenty
(120) Business Days and, if a special meeting is duly requested by the Company’s stockholders with respect to the offer, at least ten (10) Business Days after the date of the special meeting or, if no special meeting is held within
ninety (90) Business Days following receipt of the notice of the special meeting, for at least ten (10) Business Days following that ninety (90)-day period; 

 

	 	•	 	 is accompanied by an irrevocable written commitment by the offeror to the Company that, in addition to the minimum time periods specified above, the
offer will be extended for at least fifteen (15) Business Days after any increase in the price offered, and after any bona fide alternative offer is made; 

 

	 	•	 	 is conditioned on a minimum of a majority of the shares of Common Stock of the Company being tendered and not withdrawn as of the offer’s
expiration date; 

  

	 	•	 	 is accompanied by an irrevocable written commitment by the offeror to the Company to consummate promptly upon successful completion of the offer a
second-step transaction whereby all shares of Common Stock of the Company not tendered into the offer will be acquired at the same consideration per share actually paid pursuant to the offer, subject to stockholders’ statutory appraisal rights,
if any; 

  

	 	•	 	 is accompanied by an irrevocable written commitment by the offeror to the Company that no amendments will be made to the offer to reduce the offer
consideration or otherwise change the terms of the offer in a way that is adverse to a tendering stockholder; and 

  

	 	•	 	 is accompanied by certifications of the offeror and its chief executive officer and chief financial officer that all information that may be material
to an investor’s decision to accept the offer have been, and will continue to be promptly for the pendency of the offer, fully and accurately disclosed. 

 Any offers that have cash as all or partial consideration are subject to further conditions for qualification as “qualifying offers,” as set forth in the Rights Agreement. These conditions
generally require assurance that the offer is fully financed and that the offeror has sufficient committed resources to consummate the offer. Any offers that have acquiror common stock as all or partial consideration are subject to further
conditions for qualification as “qualifying offers,” as set forth in the Rights Agreement. These conditions generally require certain safeguards regarding, and access to, information about the acquiror to allow an informed determination as
to the value and risks of the stock, including safeguards against developments that adversely affect the value of the stock, that the acquiror’s stock (which may not have subordinated voting rights or have ownership be heavily concentrated in
one person or group) is listed on a national exchange, that the acquiror meets certain seasoned issuer standards under the Securities Act of 1933, and that no acquiror stockholder approval of the issuance of the consideration to the Company
stockholders is necessary after commencement of the offer. 
 The terms of the Rights may be amended by the Board of Directors
of the Company without the consent of the holders of the Rights, except that from and after such time as any person becomes an Acquiring Person no such amendment may adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Rights (other than the
Acquiring Person and its Affiliates and Associates). 
 Until a Right is exercised, the holder thereof, as such, will have no
rights as a stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends. 
 A copy of
the Agreement has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an Exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 25, 2012. A copy of the Agreement is available free of charge from the Company. This summary description of the
Rights does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.Exhibit 4.4

 Decisions of the
Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company, any Participant, any shareholder and any Eligible Person. A majority of the members of the Committee may determine its actions and fix the time and place of its
meetings. 
 SECTION 4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN 
 4.1 Authorized Number of Shares 
 Subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in
Section 13.1, the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be: 
 (a) 3,000,000 shares; plus 

  
 3 

 (b)(i) the total number of authorized shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s 1995 Stock
Option Plan (the “Prior Plan”), but not issued or subject to outstanding awards on the Effective Date, and (ii) any shares subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plan on such date that cease to be subject to such awards (other
than by reason of exercise or settlement of the awards to the extent they are exercised for or settled in shares), up to an aggregate maximum of 15,684,138 shares, which shares shall cease, as of such date, to be available for grant and
issuance under the Prior Plan, but shall be available for issuance under the Plan. 
 Shares issued under the Plan shall be drawn from
authorized and unissued shares or shares now held or subsequently acquired by the Company. 
 4.2 Share Usage 

(a) Shares of Common Stock covered by an Award shall not be counted as used unless and until they are actually issued and delivered to a Participant. If
any Award lapses, expires, terminates or is canceled prior to the issuance of shares thereunder or if shares of Common Stock are issued under the Plan to a Participant and thereafter are forfeited to or otherwise reacquired by the Company, the
shares subject to such Awards and the forfeited or reacquired shares shall again be available for issuance under the Plan. Any shares of Common Stock (i) tendered by a Participant or retained by the Company as full or partial payment to the
Company for the purchase price of an Award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with an Award or (ii) covered by an Award that is settled in cash shall be available for Awards under the Plan. The number of shares available
for issuance under the Plan shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend equivalents that are reinvested into additional shares or credited as additional Restricted Stock, Stock Units, Performance Stock or Performance Units. 

(b) The Committee shall have the authority to grant Awards as an alternative to or as the form of payment for grants or rights earned or due under other
compensation plans or arrangements of the Company. 
 (c) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the number of shares authorized for issuance under
the Plan. In the event that an Acquired Entity has shares available for awards or grants under one or more preexisting plans not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, then, to the extent determined by the Board or the
Committee, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such preexisting plans (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to
determine the consideration payable to holders of common stock of the entities who are parties to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for
issuance under the Plan; provided, however, that Awards using such available shares shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of such preexisting plans, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall
only be made to individuals who were not employees or nonemployee directors of the Company or a Related Company prior to such acquisition or combination. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may grant Substitute Awards
under the Plan. In the event that a written agreement between the Company and an Acquired Entity pursuant to which a merger or consolidation is completed is approved by the Board and said agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the
substitution for or assumption of outstanding awards of the Acquired Entity, said terms and conditions shall be deemed to be the action of the Committee without any further action by the Committee and the persons holding such awards shall be deemed
to be Participants. 
 SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY 
 An Award may be granted to any employee, officer or director of the Company or a Related Company whom the Committee from time to time selects. An Award may also be granted to any consultant, agent,
advisor or independent contractor for bona fide services rendered to the Company or any Related Company that (a) are not in connection with the offer and sale of the Company’s securities in a capital-raising transaction and (b) do not
directly or indirectly promote or maintain a market for the Company’s securities.

The Committee shall have the authority, in its sole discretion, to determine the type or types of Awards to be granted under the Plan. Such Awards may be
granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other type of Award. Any Award settlement may be subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee shall determine. 

6.2 Evidence of Awards 
 Awards granted
under the Plan shall be evidenced by a written (including electronic) instrument that shall contain such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Committee shall deem advisable and that are not inconsistent with the Plan. 

6.3 Vesting of Awards 
 The effect on the
vesting of an Award of a Company-approved leave of absence or a Participant’s working less than full-time shall be determined by the Company’s chief human resources officer or other person performing that function or, with respect to
directors or executive officers, by the Committee or the Board, whose determination shall be final. 
 6.4 Deferrals 

The Committee may permit or require a Participant to defer receipt of the payment of any Award. If any such deferral election is permitted or required,
the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall establish rules and procedures for such payment deferrals, which may include the grant of additional Awards or provisions for the payment or crediting of interest or dividend equivalents, including
converting such credits to deferred share unit equivalents. 
 SECTION 7. OPTIONS 

7.1 Grant of Options 
 The Committee may

 7.2 Option Exercise Price 
 The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be the closing price of the Company’s stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the Grant Date, or if the New York Stock Exchange
is not open on the Grant Date, then the exercise price for shares purchased under an Option shall be the closing price of the Company’s stock trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the last trading day immediately before the Grant Date,

 7.3 Term of Options 
 Subject
to earlier termination in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the instrument evidencing the Option, the maximum term of an Option shall be as established for that Option by the Committee or, if not so established, shall be ten years from the
Grant Date. 
 7.4 Exercise of Options 
 The Committee shall establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences an Option the time at which, or the installments in which, the Option shall vest and become exercisable, any of which
provisions may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time. If not so established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option shall vest and become exercisable according to the following schedule, which may be waived or
modified by the Committee at any time: 
  

			
	 Period of Participant’s Continuous
 Employment or Service With the Company
 or Its Related Companies From the
Vesting
 Commencement Date
	  	 Portion of Total Option

	After 1 year	  	1/3
	 After each additional year of continuous
 service completed thereafter
	  	An additional 1/3
	After 3 years	  	100%

 To the extent an Option has vested and become exercisable, the Option may be exercised in whole or from time to time in
part by delivery to the Company of a properly executed option exercise agreement or notice, in a form and in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, setting forth the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being
exercised, the restrictions imposed on the shares purchased under such exercise agreement, if any, and such representations and agreements as may be required by the Committee, accompanied by payment in full as described in Section 7.5. An
Option may be exercised only for whole shares and may not be exercised for less than a reasonable number of shares at any one time, as determined by the Committee. 
 7.5 Payment of Exercise Price 
 The exercise price for shares purchased under an Option
shall be paid in full to the Company by delivery of consideration equal to the product of the Option exercise price and the number of shares purchased. Such consideration must be paid before the Company will issue the shares being purchased and must
be in a form or a combination of forms acceptable to the Committee for that purchase, which forms may include: 
 (a) cash; 

(b) check or wire transfer; 
 (c) tendering
(either actually or, if the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act, by attestation) shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant for at least six months (or any shorter period necessary to avoid a
charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes) that on the day prior to the exercise date have a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate exercise price of the shares being purchased under the Option; 

(d) if the Common Stock is registered under Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and to the extent permitted by law, delivery of a properly
executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a brokerage firm designated by the Company to deliver promptly to the Company the aggregate amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Option exercise price and any withholding tax
obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise, all in accordance with the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board; or 
 (e) such
other consideration as the Committee may permit. 
 7.6 Post-Termination Exercise 

The Committee may establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences an Option whether the Option shall continue to be exercisable, and the terms
and conditions of such exercise, after a Termination of Service, any of which provisions may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time. If not so established in the instrument evidencing the Option, the Option shall be exercisable according
to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time: 
 (a) Any portion of an Option that is not
vested and exercisable on the date of a Participant’s Termination of Service shall expire on such date unless the Participant’s Termination of Service arises as a result of the Participant’s Retirment, in which case the provisions of
paragraph (b) below shall apply. 
 (b) If the Participant’s Termination of Service is due to Retirement, all Options granted to that
Participant shall continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule applicable to such Options and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions imposed by the Committee in connection with such Options. The Options shall expire on the
earliest to occur of (y) the last day of the maximum term of the Option (the “Option Expiration Date”) and (z) the five-year anniversary of the date of Retirement, unless the Committee determines otherwise. 

  
 5 

 (c) Any portion of an Option that is vested and exercisable on the date of a Participant’s Termination
of Service shall expire on the earliest to occur of 
 (i) if the Participant’s Termination of Service occurs for reasons
other than Cause, Retirement, Disability or death, the date that is three months after such Termination of Service; 
 (ii) if
the Participant’s Termination of Service occurs by reason of Disability, the five-year anniversary of such Termination of Service; 
 (iii) if the Participant’s Termination of Service occurs by reason of death, the two-year anniversary of such Termination of Service; and 

(iv) the Option Expiration Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Participant dies after his or her Termination of Service but while an Option is otherwise exercisable, the portion of
the Option that is vested and exercisable on the date of such Termination of Service shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (y) the Option Expiration Date and (z) the two-year anniversary of the date of death, unless the Committee
determines otherwise. 
 Also notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Participant’s Termination of Service occurs for Cause, all Options
granted to the Participant shall automatically expire upon first notification to the Participant of such termination, unless the Committee determines otherwise. If a Participant’s employment or service relationship with the Company is suspended
pending an investigation of whether the Participant shall be terminated for Cause, all the Participant’s rights under any Option shall likewise be suspended during the period of investigation. If any facts that would constitute termination for
Cause are discovered after a Participant’s Termination of Service, any Option then held by the Participant may be immediately terminated by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 
 (d) A Participant’s change in status from an employee to a consultant, advisor or independent contractor or a change in status from a consultant, advisor or independent contractor to an employee
shall not be considered a Termination of Service for purposes of this Section 7.6. 
 SECTION 8. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

 8.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights 
 The Committee may grant share appreciation rights (“Stock Appreciation Rights” or “SARs”) to Participants at any time. A SAR may be granted in tandem with an Option or alone
(“freestanding”). The grant price of a tandem SAR shall be equal to the exercise price of the related Option, and the grant price of a freestanding SAR shall be equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Grant Date. A SAR
may be exercised upon such terms and conditions and for such term as the Committee determines in its sole discretion; provided, however, that, subject to earlier termination in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the instrument evidencing the
SAR, the term of a freestanding SAR shall be as established for that SAR by the Committee or, if not so established, shall be ten years, and in the case of a tandem SAR, (a) the term shall not exceed the term of the related Option and
(b) the tandem SAR may be exercised for all or part of the shares subject to the related Option upon the surrender of the right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option, except that the tandem SAR may be exercised only with
respect to the shares for which its related Option is then exercisable. 
 8.2 Payment of SAR Amount 

Upon the exercise of a SAR, a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying (a) the
difference between the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise over the grant price by (b) the number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. At the discretion of the Committee as set forth in the instrument
evidencing the Award, the payment upon exercise of a SAR may be in cash, in shares of equivalent value, in some combination thereof or in any other manner approved by the Committee in its sole discretion. 

8.3 Post Termination Exercise 
 The
provisions of paragraph 7.6 above shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the right of a Participant to exercise a SAR after the Participant’s Termination of Service. 
 SECTION 9. RESTRICTED STOCK AND STOCK UNITS 
 9.1 Grant of Restricted Stock and Stock
Units 
 The Committee may grant Restricted Stock and Stock Units on such terms and conditions and subject to such repurchase or forfeiture
restrictions, if any (which may be based on continuous service with the Company or a Related Company or the achievement of any performance criteria, as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion), which terms, conditions and restrictions
shall be set forth in the instrument evidencing the Award. 
 9.2 Issuance of Shares; Settlement of Awards 

Upon the satisfaction of any terms, conditions and restrictions prescribed with respect to Restricted Stock or Stock Units, or upon a Participant’s
release from any terms, conditions and restrictions of Restricted Stock or Stock Units, as determined by the Committee, and subject to the provisions of Section 11, (a) the shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Award of Restricted
Stock shall become freely transferable by the Participant and (b) Stock Units shall be paid in shares of Common Stock or, if set forth in the instrument evidencing the Awards, in a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock as the Committee
shall determine in its sole discretion. Any fractional shares subject to such Awards shall be paid to the Participant in cash. 

  
 6 

 9.3 Dividends and Distributions 
 Participants holding shares of Restricted Stock or Stock Units may, if the Committee so determines, be credited with dividends paid with respect to the underlying shares or dividend equivalents while they
are so held in a manner determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee may apply any restrictions to the dividends or dividend equivalents that the Committee deems appropriate. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine
the form of payment of dividends or dividend equivalents, including cash, shares of Common Stock, Restricted Stock or Stock Units. 
 9.4
Waiver of Restrictions 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may waive the repurchase
or forfeiture period and any other terms, conditions or restrictions on any Restricted Stock or Stock Unit under such circumstances and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee shall deem appropriate. 

9.5 Post-Termination Vesting 
 The
Committee may establish and set forth in each instrument that evidences a RSU whether the RSU shall vest after a Termination of Service, any of which provisions may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time. If not so established in the
instrument evidencing the RSU, the RSU shall vest according to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time: 
 (a) Any portion of a RSU that is not vested on the date of a Participant’s Termination of Service shall be cancelled on such date unless the Participant’s Termination of Service arises as a
result of the Participant’s Retirment, in which case the provisions of paragraph (b) below shall apply. 
 (b) Subject to the
provisions of paragraph (c) below, if the Participant’s Termination of Service is due to Retirement, all RSUs granted to that Participant shall continue to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule applicable to such RSUs and otherwise
in accordance with the terms and conditions imposed by the Committee in connection with such RSUs. 
 (c) The provisions of this paragraph 9.5
shall not apply to RSU’s which only vest upon the achievement of certain performance criteria established by the Committee, such performance-based RSU’s to be governed by the provisions of paragraph 10.3 below. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Participant’s Termination of Service occurs for Cause, all RSUs granted to the Participant shall
automatically expire upon first notification to the Participant of such termination, unless the Committee determines otherwise. If a Participant’s employment or service relationship with the Company is suspended pending an investigation of
whether the Participant shall be terminated for Cause, all the Participant’s rights under any RSU shall likewise be suspended during the period of investigation. If any facts that would constitute termination for Cause are discovered after a
Participant’s Termination of Service, any RSU then held by the Participant may be immediately terminated by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 
 (d) A Participant’s change in status from an employee to a consultant, advisor or independent contractor or a change in status from a consultant, advisor or independent contractor to an employee
shall not be considered a Termination of Service for purposes of this Section 9.5. 
 SECTION 10. PERFORMANCE STOCK AND PERFORMANCE
UNITS 
 10.1 Grant of Performance Stock 
 The Committee may grant Awards of Performance Stock and designate the Participants to whom Performance Stock is to be awarded and determine the number of shares of Performance Stock, the length of the
performance period and the other terms and conditions of each such Award. Each Award of Performance Stock shall entitle the Participant to a payment in the form of Common Stock, cash or a combination, as the Committee may determine, upon the
attainment of performance goals and other terms and conditions specified by the Committee. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of shares to be issued or the amount of cash to be paid under an Award of Performance
Stock may be adjusted on the basis of such further consideration as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion. 
 10.2 Grant of
Performance Units 
 The Committee may grant Awards of Performance Units and designate the Participants to whom Performance Units are to be
awarded and determine the number of Performance Units, the length of the performance period and the terms and conditions of each such Award. Each Award of Performance Units shall entitle the Participant to a payment in the form of Common Stock, cash
or a combination, as the Committee may determine, upon the attainment of performance goals and other terms and conditions specified by the Committee. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of shares to be issued or the
amount of cash to be paid under an Award of Performance Units may be adjusted on the basis of such further consideration as the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion. 
 10.3 Post-Termination Vesting 
 The Committee may establish and set forth in each instrument
that evidences a Performance Unit whether the Performance Unit shall continue to vest, and the terms and conditions of such vesting, after a Termination of Service, any of which provisions may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time. If
not so established in the instrument evidencing the Performance Unit, the Performance Unit shall be vest according to the following terms and conditions, which may be waived or modified by the Committee at any time: 

  
 7 

 (a) Any portion of a Performance Unit that is not vested on the date of a Participant’s Termination of
Service shall be cancelled on such date unless the Participant’s Termination of Service arises as a result of the Participant’s Retirement, in which case the provisions of paragraph (b) below shall apply. 

(b) If the Participant’s Termination of Service is due to Retirement, a pro rata portion of the Performance Units granted to that Participant,
calculated in each case to reflect the proportion of the performance period served by the Participant prior to his/her Retirement, shall vest and be paid to the Retired Participant in accordance with the performance vesting schedule applicable to
such Performance Units and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions imposed by the Committee in connection with such Performance Units. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case a Participant’s Termination of Service occurs for Cause, all Performance Units granted to the Participant shall automatically expire upon first notification to
the Participant of such termination, unless the Committee determines otherwise. If a Participant’s employment or service relationship with the Company is suspended pending an investigation of whether the Participant shall be terminated for
Cause, all the Participant’s rights under any Performance Unit shall likewise be suspended during the period of investigation. If any facts that would constitute termination for Cause are discovered after a Participant’s Termination of
Service, any Performance Unit then held by the Participant may be immediately terminated by the Committee, in its sole discretion. 
 (c) A
Participant’s change in status from an employee to a consultant, advisor or independent contractor shall be considered a Termination of Service for purposes of this Section 10.3. 
 SECTION 11. WITHHOLDING 
 The Company may require a Participant to pay to the Company the
amount of (a) any taxes that the Company is required by applicable law to withhold with respect to the grant, vesting or exercise of an Award (“tax withholding obligations”) and (b) any amounts due from the Participant to the
Company or to any Related Company (“other obligations”). The Company shall not be required to issue any shares of Common Stock or otherwise settle an Award under the Plan until such tax withholding obligations and other obligations are
satisfied. 
 The Committee may permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or part of the Participant’s tax withholding obligations and
other obligations by (a) paying cash to the Company, (b) having the Company withhold an amount from any cash amounts otherwise due or to become due from the Company to the Participant, (c) having the Company withhold a number of
shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issued to the Participant (or become vested in the case of Restricted Stock) having a Fair Market Value equal to the tax withholding obligations and other obligations, or (d) surrendering a number
of shares of Common Stock the Participant already owns having a value equal to the tax withholding obligations and other obligations. The value of the shares so withheld may not exceed the employer’s minimum required tax withholding rate, and
the value of the shares so tendered may not exceed such rate to the extent the Participant has owned the tendered shares for less than six months, if such limitation is necessary to avoid a charge to the Company for financial reporting purposes.

 SECTION 12. ASSIGNABILITY 

No Award or interest in an Award may be sold, assigned, pledged (as collateral for a loan or as security for the performance of an obligation or for any
other purpose) or transferred by a Participant or made subject to attachment or similar proceedings otherwise than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution, except to the extent the Participant designates one or more
beneficiaries on a Company-approved form who may exercise the Award or receive payment under the Award after the Participant’s death. During a Participant’s lifetime, an Award may be exercised only by the Participant. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit a Participant to assign or transfer an Award; provided, however, that any Award so assigned or transferred shall be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Plan and the instrument
evidencing the Award. 
 SECTION 13. ADJUSTMENTS 
 13.1 Adjustment of Shares 
 In the event, at any time or from time to time, a stock
dividend, stock split, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, distribution to shareholders other than a normal cash dividend, or other change in the Company’s corporate or capital structure results
in (a) the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or any securities exchanged therefor or received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or any other company or (b) new, different or
additional securities of the Company or any other company being received by the holders of shares of Common Stock, then the Committee shall make proportional adjustments in (i) the maximum number and kind of securities available for issuance
under the Plan; and (ii) the number and kind of securities that are subject to any outstanding Award and the per share price of such securities, without any change in the aggregate price to be paid therefor. 

The determination by the Committee as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the issuance by the Company of shares of any class, or securities convertible into shares of any class, for cash or
property, or for labor or services rendered, either upon direct sale or upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, shall
not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, outstanding Awards. Also notwithstanding the foregoing, a dissolution or liquidation of the Company or a Company Transaction or Change in Control shall not be governed by
this Section 13.1 but shall be governed by Sections 13.2 and 13.3, respectively. 
 13.2 Dissolution or Liquidation 

To the extent not previously exercised or settled, and unless otherwise determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, Options, Stock Appreciation
Rights and Stock Units shall terminate immediately prior to the dissolution or liquidation of the Company. To the extent a forfeiture provision or repurchase right applicable to an Award has not been waived by the Committee, the Award shall be
forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of the dissolution or liquidation. 

  
 8 

 13.3 Company Transaction; Change in Control 
 13.3.1 Effect of a Company Transaction That Is Not a Change in Control or a Related Party Transaction 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, unless the Committee shall determine otherwise at the time of grant with respect to a particular Award, in the event of a Company
Transaction that is not a Change in Control or a Related Party Transaction: 
 (a) All outstanding Awards, other than Performance Stock and
Performance Units, shall become fully and immediately exercisable, and all applicable deferral and restriction limitations shall lapse immediately prior to the Company Transaction, unless such Awards are converted, assumed, or replaced by the
Successor Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may instead provide that a Participant’s outstanding Options shall terminate upon consummation of
such Company Transaction and that each such Participant shall receive, in exchange therefor, a cash payment equal to the amount (if any) by which (a) the Acquisition Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such
outstanding Options or SARs (whether or not then exercisable) exceeds (b) the aggregate exercise price for such Options or SARs. 
 For the
purposes of this Section 13.3.1, an Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if following the Company Transaction the option or right confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Common Share subject to the Award immediately
prior to the Company Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Company Transaction by holders of Common Stock for each share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders
were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Company Transaction is not solely common stock of the
Successor Company, the Committee may, with the consent of the Successor Company, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each share of Common Stock subject thereto, to be solely common stock of the Successor
Company substantially equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Company Transaction. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee
and its determination shall be conclusive and binding. 
 (b) All Performance Stock or Performance Units earned and outstanding as of the date
the Company Transaction is determined to have occurred shall be payable in full in accordance with the payout schedule pursuant to the Award agreement. Any remaining Performance Stock or Performance Units (including any applicable performance
period) for which the payout level has not been determined shall be prorated at the target payout level up to and including the date of such Company Transaction and shall be payable in full in accordance with the payout schedule pursuant to the
Award agreement. 
 Any existing deferrals or other restrictions shall remain in effect. If the Participant’s employment is terminated
without Cause following the Company Transaction, any Awards remaining to be paid will be paid in accordance with the employment termination provision of the Award agreement. If the Participant’s employment is terminated for Good Reason
following the Company Transaction, any Awards remaining to be paid will be paid in accordance with the payout schedule pursuant to the Award agreement. 
 13.3.2 Effect of a Change in Control 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to
the contrary, unless the Committee shall determine otherwise at the time of grant with respect to a particular Award, in the event of a Change in Control: 
 (a) any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date such Change in Control is determined to have occurred, and which are not then exercisable and vested, shall become fully
exercisable and vested to the full extent of the original grant; 
 (b) any restrictions and deferral limitations applicable to any Restricted
Stock or Stock Units shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock or Stock Units shall become free of all restrictions and limitations and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant; 

(c) all Performance Stock and Performance Units shall be considered to be earned and payable in full, and any deferral or other restriction shall lapse
and such Performance Stock and Performance Units shall be immediately settled or distributed; and 
 (d) any restrictions and deferral
limitations and other conditions applicable to any other Awards shall lapse, and such other Awards shall become free of all restrictions, limitations or conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant.

 13.3.3 Change in Control Cash-Out 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, during the 60-day period from and after a Change in Control (the “Exercise Period”), if the Committee shall so determine at, or at any time
after, the time of grant, a Participant holding an Option or SAR shall have the right, whether or not the Option or SAR is fully exercisable and in lieu of the payment of the purchase price for the shares of Common Stock being purchased under the
Option, and by giving notice to the Company, to elect (within the Exercise Period) to surrender all or part of the Option or SAR to the Company and to receive cash, within 30 days of such notice, in an amount equal to the amount by which the
Acquisition Price per share of Common Stock on the date of such election shall exceed the exercise price per share of Common Stock under the Option or SAR multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock granted under the Option or SAR as to which
the right granted under this Section 13.3.3 shall have been exercised. 

  
 9 

 13.3.4 Acceleration and Exercise Following a Company Transaction 

If following a Change in Control or a Company Transaction that is not a Related Party Transaction, a Participant’s employment is subsequently
terminated without Cause or for Good Reason within 24 months of the Change in Control or Company Transaction, any such Awards (other than Performance Awards) that remain unvested shall become fully and immediately exercisable upon the date of
the Participant’s termination, all applicable deferral and restriction limitations shall lapse, and an Award that is an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right shall remain exercisable until the later of the date five years after the date of such
termination and the date the Award would have expired by its terms if the Participant’s employment had not been terminated. 
 13.4
Further Adjustment of Awards 
 Subject to Sections 13.2 and 13.3, the Committee shall have the discretion, exercisable at any time
before a sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or change of control of the Company, as defined by the Committee, to take such further action as it determines to be necessary or advisable with respect to Awards. Such
authorized action may include (but shall not be limited to) establishing, amending or waiving the type, terms, conditions or duration of, or restrictions on, Awards so as to provide for earlier, later, extended or additional time for exercise,
lifting restrictions and other modifications, and the Committee may take such actions with respect to all Participants, to certain categories of Participants or only to individual Participants. The Committee may take such action before or after
granting Awards to which the action relates and before or after any public announcement with respect to such sale, merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or change of control that is the reason for such action. 

13.5 No Limitations 
 The grant of Awards
shall in no way affect the Company’s right to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 13.6 Fractional Shares 
 In
the event of any adjustment in the number of shares covered by any Award, each such Award shall cover only the number of full shares resulting from such adjustment. 
 SECTION 14. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION 
 14.1 Amendment, Suspension or Termination

 The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion of the Plan at any time and in such respects as it shall deem advisable;
provided, however, that, to the extent required by applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule, shareholder approval shall be required for any amendment to the Plan. Subject to Section 14.3, the Board may amend the terms of any
outstanding Award, prospectively or retroactively. 
 14.2 Term of the Plan 
 Unless sooner terminated as provided herein, the Plan shall terminate ten years from the Effective Date. After the Plan is terminated, no future Awards may be granted, but Awards previously granted shall
remain outstanding in accordance with their applicable terms and conditions and the Plan’s terms and conditions. 
 14.3 Consent of
Participant 
 The amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan or a portion thereof or the amendment of an outstanding Award shall not,
without the Participant’s consent, materially adversely affect any rights under any Award theretofore granted to the Participant under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any adjustments made pursuant to Section 13 shall not be
subject to these restrictions. 
 SECTION 15. GENERAL 
 15.1 No Individual Rights 
 No individual or Participant shall have any claim to be granted
any Award under the Plan, and the Company has no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants under the Plan. 
 Furthermore, nothing
in the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall be deemed to constitute an employment contract or confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company
or any Related Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related Company to terminate a Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without cause. 

 

	15.2	Issuance of Shares 

 Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, such
issuance, delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the requirements of the Securities Act or the laws of any state or foreign jurisdiction) and the applicable requirements of any securities
exchange or similar entity. 
 The Company shall be under no obligation to any Participant to register for offering or resale or to qualify for
exemption under the Securities Act, or to register or qualify under the laws of any state or foreign jurisdiction, any shares of Common Stock, security or interest in a security paid or issued under, or created by, the Plan, or to continue in effect
any such registrations or qualifications if made. 

  
 10 

 As a condition to the exercise of an Option or any other receipt of Common Stock pursuant to an Award under
the Plan, the Company may require (a) the Participant to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or receipt that such shares are being purchased or received only for the Participant’s own account and without any present
intention to sell or distribute such shares and (b) such other action or agreement by the Participant as may from time to time be necessary to comply with the federal, state and foreign securities laws. At the option of the Company, a
stop-transfer order against any such shares may be placed on the official stock books and records of the Company, and a legend indicating that such shares may not be pledged, sold or otherwise transferred, unless an opinion of counsel is provided
(concurred in by counsel for the Company) stating that such transfer is not in violation of any applicable law or regulation, may be stamped on stock certificates to ensure exemption from registration. The Committee may also require the Participant
to execute and deliver to the Company a purchase agreement or such other agreement as may be in use by the Company at such time that describes certain terms and conditions applicable to the shares. 

To the extent the Plan or any instrument evidencing an Award provides for issuance of stock certificates to reflect the issuance of shares of Common
Stock, the issuance may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules of any stock exchange. 
 15.3 Indemnification 
 Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Board, or a
committee appointed by the Board, or an officer of the Company to whom authority was delegated in accordance with Section 3 shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be
imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such person in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which such person may be a party or in which such person may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act
under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by such person in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by such person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding against such
person; provided, however, that such person shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before such person undertakes to handle and defend it on such person’s own behalf, unless such loss, cost,
liability or expense is a result of such person’s own willful misconduct or except as expressly provided by statute. 
 The foregoing right
of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such person may be entitled under the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or of any power that the Company
may have to indemnify or hold harmless. 
  

	15.4	No Rights as a Shareholder 

 Unless
otherwise provided by the Committee or in the instrument evidencing the Award or in a written employment, services or other agreement, no Option, Stock Appreciation Right, or Award denominated in units shall entitle the Participant to any cash
dividend, voting or other right of a shareholder unless and until the date of issuance under the Plan of the shares that are the subject of such Award. 
 15.5 Global Participants 
 The Committee shall have the authority to adopt such
modifications, procedures and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of any countries in which the Company or any Related Company may operate, to ensure the viability of the benefits from Awards granted to
Participants employed in such countries, to comply with applicable laws and to meet the objectives of the Plan. 
 15.6 No Trust or Fund

 The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan. Nothing contained herein shall require the Company to segregate any
monies or other property, or shares of Common Stock, or to create any trusts, or to make any special deposits for any immediate or deferred amounts payable to any Participant, and no Participant shall have any rights that are greater than those of a
general unsecured creditor of the Company. 
 15.7 Successors 
 All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect
purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all the business and/or assets of the Company. 
 15.8 Severability

 If any provision of the Plan or any Award is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person,
or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or, if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the
Committee’s determination, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and
effect. 
 15.9 Choice of Law 

The Plan, all Awards granted thereunder and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
the Bahamas. 
 SECTION 16. EFFECTIVE DATE 
 The effective date (the “Effective Date”) is the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board.
