such cessation by reason of “disability” and (ii) the expiration of the Stock Option;

 d. in the event of such cessation of employment for any reason other than death, “disability,”
termination by the Company “without cause,” termination by the Optionee for “normal retirement” or termination by the Optionee for “voluntary resignation,” then, notwithstanding the foregoing, the vested portion of the
Stock Option will thereupon automatically terminate and be void and will not be exercisable. 
 4. Expiration of Stock Option. The
Stock Option shall expire on the expiration date set forth on Schedule 1, and may not be exercised after such date. 
 5. Procedure
for Exercise. The Stock Option may be exercised for the number of Shares specified in a written notice which has been executed by the Optionee and delivered to the Company at least ten (10) days prior to the date on which purchase is
requested, accompanied by full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Stock Option is being exercised, in the manner and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stock Option may not be
exercised as to less than ten (10) Shares at any time or, if less than ten (10) Shares, the number of Shares subject to the Stock Option. If any applicable law, rule or regulation requires the Company to take any action with respect to the
Shares specified in such notice or if any action remains to be taken under the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, as they may be amended from time to time, to effect due issuance of the Shares, then the Company shall take such
action and the day for delivery of such Shares shall be extended for the period necessary to take such action. Neither the Optionee nor any other Person entitled to exercise the Stock Option, if any, shall be, or have any rights or privileges of, a
stockholder of the Company in respect of any of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option, unless and until the Shares are issued to the Optionee by the Company. 
 6. No Right to Employment. Neither the grant of the Stock Option nor the issuance of any Shares pursuant to the Stock Option shall give the
Optionee any right to be employed or retained in the employ of the Company. Neither the grant of the Stock Option nor the issuance of any Shares pursuant to the Stock Option shall affect the right of the Company to discharge or discipline the
Optionee or the right of the Optionee to terminate his or her employment. 
 7. Return of Economic Value. If the Optionee’s
employment with the Company or its subsidiaries ceases by reason of termination by the Company “with cause” (as “with cause” may be determined under the procedures established by the Committee for purposes of the Plan), then the
Committee may require the Optionee to return to the Company the economic value of the Stock Option, or any portion thereof, which was realized or obtained by the Optionee at any time during the period beginning on the date which is six
(6) months prior to the date of such cessation of the Optionee’s employment with the Company or its subsidiaries. If the Optionee’s employment with the Company or its subsidiaries ceases for any reason whatsoever and if, within one
(1) year after such cessation thereof, the Optionee accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise engages in competition with, the Company or its subsidiaries, then the Committee may require the Optionee to return to the Company the
economic value of the Stock Option, or any portion thereof, which was realized or obtained by the Optionee at any time during the period beginning on the date which is six (6) months prior to the date of the Optionee’s cessation of
employment with the Company or its subsidiaries.

form and substance that the Company’s counsel reasonably requests, to the effect that the Optionee is acquiring the Shares for investment and without any present intention of reselling or redistributing the same in violation of any applicable
law, rule or regulation. If the Company elects to register, or has registered, the Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state laws, rules and regulations, then the issuance of such Shares shall not be subject to
the aforementioned conditions contained in this Section 8. 
 9. Compliance with Applicable Law. The issuance of the
Shares pursuant to the exercise of this Stock Option is subject to compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, laws, rules and regulations governing withholding from employees and nonresident aliens for
