Type of Option. The Company hereby grants to the Director an option (the "Option") to purchase the total number

Subject to Plan. The grant of the Option is made in consideration of the services to be rendered by the Director to the Company
and is subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the meaning ascribed
to them in the Plan.

 

		2.	Exercise Period; Vesting.

 

2.1      Vesting
Schedule. The Option will become vested and exercisable with respect to the shares in accordance with the following schedule
until the Option is 100% vested.

    Million     Dollars     ($1,000,000) each 	 	 	0	 	 	 	640,000	 

 

The unvested portion of the Option
will not be exercisable on or after the Director's termination of Continuous Service.

 

2.2      Expiration.
The Option will expire on the Expiration Date set forth above, or earlier as provided in this Agreement or the Plan.

 

		3.	Termination of Continuous Service.

 

3.1      Termination
of Continuous Service for a Reason Other Than Retirement, Disability, Death or Removal From the Board for Cause. If the Director's
Continuous Service is terminated for any reason other than Retirement (as defined below), Disability, death or removal from the
Board for Cause, the Director may exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the
earlier of (a) the date three months following the termination of the Director's Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date.

 

3.2      Termination
Due to Retirement. If the Director's Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Director's Retirement, the Director may
exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date one year following
the Director's termination of Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Retirement"
means voluntary termination of membership on the Board after reaching age 65 or after reaching age 55 if the Director's age plus
years of service as a non-employee Director of the Company is 65 or more.

 

3.3      Termination
Due to Disability. If the Director's Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Director's Disability, the Director may
exercise the vested portion of the Option, but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date one year following
the Director's termination of Continuous Service or (b) the Expiration Date.

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

3.4      Termination
Due to Death. If the Director's Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Director's death, or the Director dies within
the period following termination of the Director's Continuous Service during which the vested portion of the Option remains exercisable,
the vested portion of the Option may be exercised by the Director's estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the
Option by bequest or inheritance or by the person designated to exercise the Option upon the Director's death, but only within
the time period ending on the earlier of (a) the date one year following the Director's death or (b) the Expiration Date.

 

3.5      Removal
From the Board for Cause. If the Director is removed from the Board for Cause, the Option (whether vested or unvested) shall
immediately terminate and cease to be exercisable.

 

3.6      Extension
of Termination Date. If following the Director's termination of Continuous Service for any reason the exercise of the Option
is prohibited because the exercise of the Option would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or any other
state or federal securities law or the rules of any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, then the expiration of
the Option shall be tolled until the date that is thirty (30) days after the end of the period during which the exercise of the
Option would be in violation of such registration or other securities requirements.

 

		4.	Manner of Exercise.

 

4.1      Election
to Exercise. To exercise the Option, the Director (or in the case of exercise after the Director's death or incapacity, the
Director's executor, administrator, heir or legatee, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed stock option exercise
agreement in such form as is approved by the Committee from time to time (the "Exercise Agreement"), which shall
set forth, inter alia:

 

(a)      the
Director's election to exercise the Option;

 

(b)      the
number of shares of Common Stock being purchased;

 

(c)      any
restrictions imposed on the shares; and

 

(d)      any
representations, warranties and agreements regarding the Director's investment intent and access to information as may be required
by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws.

 

If someone other than the Director exercises
the Option, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company verifying that such person has the
legal right to exercise the Option.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

4.2      Payment
of Exercise Price. The entire Exercise Price of the Option shall be payable in full at the time of exercise to the extent permitted
by applicable statutes and regulations, either:

 

(a)      in
cash or by certified or bank check at the time the Option is exercised;

 

(b)      by
delivery to the Company of other shares of Common Stock, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, with a Fair Market Value on
the date of delivery equal to the Exercise Price (or portion thereof) due for the number of shares being acquired, or by means
of attestation whereby the Director identifies for delivery specific shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date of attestation
equal to the Exercise Price (or portion thereof) and receives a number of shares equal to the difference between the number of
shares thereby purchased and the number of identified attestation shares (a "Stock for Stock Exchange");

 

(c)      through
a "cashless exercise program" established with a broker;

 

(d)      by
reducing the number of shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of such Option by a number of shares with an aggregate Fair Market
Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price at the time of exercise;

 

(e)      by
any combination of the foregoing methods; or

 

(f)      in
any other form of legal consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee.

 

4.3      Withholding.
As a condition to the issuance of any shares of Common Stock subject to the Option, the Company may withhold, or require the Director
to pay or reimburse the Company for, any taxes which the Company determines are required to be withheld under federal, state or
local law in connection with the exercise of the Option.

 

4.4      Issuance
of Shares. Provided that the Exercise Agreement and payment are in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, the Company
shall issue the shares of Common Stock registered in the name of the Director, the Director's authorized assignee, or the Director's
legal representative, and shall deliver certificates representing the shares with the appropriate legends affixed thereto.

 

5.     No
Right to Continued Service on the Board; No Rights as Shareholder. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall confer upon the
Director any right to be retained as a Director of the Company. Further, nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall be construed
to limit the discretion of the Company to terminate the Director's Continuous Service at any time. The Director shall not have
any rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock subject to the Option prior to the date of exercise of the
Option.

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

6.     Transferability.
The Option is not transferable by the Director other than to a designated beneficiary upon the Director's death or by will or the
laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during the Director's lifetime only by him or her. No assignment or transfer
of the Option, or the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise (except to
a designated beneficiary upon death or by will or the laws of descent or distribution) will vest in the assignee or transferee
any interest or right herein whatsoever, but immediately upon such assignment or transfer the Option will terminate and become
of no further effect.

 

		7.	Change in Control.

 

7.1      Acceleration
of Vesting. In the event of a Change in Control, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary,
the Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable with respect to 100% of the shares subject to the Option. To the extent
practicable, such acceleration of vesting and exercisability shall occur in a manner and at a time which allows the Director the
ability to participate in the Change in Control with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option.

 

7.2      Cash-out.
In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may, in its discretion and upon at least ten (10) days' advance notice to the
Director, cancel the Option and pay to the Director the value of the Option based upon the price per share of Common Stock received
or to be received by other shareholders of the Company in the event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of a Change
in Control the Exercise Price of the Option equals or exceeds the price paid for a share of Common Stock in connection with the
Change in Control, the Committee may cancel the Option without the payment of consideration therefor.

 

8.     Adjustments.
The shares of Common Stock subject to the Option may be adjusted or terminated in any manner as contemplated by Section 11 of the
Plan.

 

9.     Tax
Liability and Withholding. Notwithstanding any action the Company takes with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance,
payroll tax, or other tax-related withholding ("Tax-Related Items"), the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related
Items is and remains the Director's responsibility and the Company: (a) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the
treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Option or the subsequent sale of any
shares acquired on exercise; and (b) does not commit to structure the Option to reduce or eliminate the Director's liability for
Tax-Related Items.

 

10.    Compliance
with Law. The exercise of the Option and the issuance and transfer of shares of Common Stock shall be subject to compliance
by the Company and the Director with all applicable requirements of federal and state securities laws and with all applicable requirements
of any stock exchange on which the Company's shares of Common Stock may be listed. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued pursuant
to this Option unless and until any then applicable requirements of state or federal laws and regulatory agencies have been fully
complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel. The Director understands that the Company is under no obligation
to register the shares of Common Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission, any state securities commission or any stock
exchange to effect such compliance.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

11.   Notices.
Any notice required to be delivered to the Company under this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Chief Financial
Officer of the Company at the Company's principal corporate offices. Any notice required to be delivered to the Director under
this Agreement shall be in writing and addressed to the Director at the Director's address as shown in the records of the Company.
Either party may designate another address in writing (or by such other method approved by the Company) from time to time.

 

12.    Governing
Law. This Agreement will be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio without regard to conflict
of law principles.

 

13.    Interpretation.
Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by the Director or the Company to the Committee (excluding
the Director if he serves on the Committee) for review. The resolution of such dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding
on the Director and the Company.

 

14.    Options
Subject to Plan. This Agreement is subject to the Plan as approved by the Company's shareholders. The terms and provisions
of the Plan as it may be amended from time to time are hereby incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between
any term or provision contained herein and a term or provision of the Plan, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will
govern and prevail.

 

15.    Successors
and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Agreement. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, this Agreement
will be binding upon the Director and the Director's beneficiaries, executors, administrators and the person(s) to whom the Option
may be transferred by will or the laws of descent or distribution.

 

16.    Severability.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan or this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, and each provision of the Plan and this Agreement shall be severable and
enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

 

17.    Discretionary
Nature of Plan. The Plan is discretionary and may be amended, cancelled or terminated by the Company at any time, in its discretion.
The grant of the Option in this Agreement does not create any contractual right or other right to receive any Options or other
Awards in the future. Future Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. Any amendment, modification, or termination
of the Plan shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Director's membership on the Board.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

18.    Amendment.
The Committee has the right to amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or cancel the Option, prospectively or retroactively; provided,
that, no such amendment shall adversely affect the Director's material rights under this Agreement without the Director's consent.

 

19.    Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute
one and the same instrument. Counterpart signature pages to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic
mail in portable document format (.pdf), or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial
appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing an original signature.

 

20.    Acceptance.
The Director hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and this Agreement. The Director has read and understands the terms
and provisions thereof, and accepts the Option subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement. The Director
acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences upon exercise of the Option or disposition of the underlying shares and
that the Director should consult a tax advisor prior to such exercise or disposition.

3.1       Authority
of Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee or, in the Board's sole discretion, by the Board. Subject to
the terms of the Plan, the Committee's charter and Applicable Laws, and in addition to other express powers and authorization conferred
by the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority:

    	10

    	 

    

 

(k)       to
designate an Award (including a cash bonus) as a Performance Compensation Award and to select the Performance Criteria that will
be used to establish the Performance Goals;

 

(l)       to
amend any outstanding Awards, including for the purpose of modifying the time or manner of vesting, or the term of any outstanding
Award; provided, however, that if any such amendment impairs a Participant's rights or increases a Participant's obligations
under his or her Award or creates or increases a Participant's federal income tax liability with respect to an Award, such amendment
shall also be subject to the Participant's consent;

 

(m)       to
determine the duration and purpose of leaves of absences which may be granted to a Participant without constituting termination
of their employment for purposes of the Plan, which periods shall be no shorter than the periods generally applicable to Employees

(n)       to

or agreement relating to, or Award granted under, the Plan; and

 

(p)       to
exercise discretion to make any and all other determinations which it determines to be necessary or advisable for the administration
of the Plan.

 

The Committee also may
modify the purchase price or the exercise price of any outstanding Award, provided that if the modification effects a repricing,
shareholder approval shall be required before the repricing is effective.

 

3.2      Committee
Decisions Final. All decisions made by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final and binding on the
Company and the Participants, unless such decisions are determined by a court having jurisdiction to be arbitrary and capricious.

 

    	11

    	 

    

 

3.3      Delegation.
The Committee, or if no Committee has been appointed, the Board, may delegate administration of the Plan to a committee or committees
of one or more members of the Board, and the term "Committee" shall apply to any person or persons to whom such
authority has been delegated. The Committee shall have the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers
the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board or the Committee shall thereafter be to the committee
or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from
time to time by the Board. The Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan.
The members of the Committee shall be appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the Board. From time to time, the Board may increase
or decrease the size of the Committee, add additional members to, remove members (with or without cause) from, appoint new members
in substitution therefor, and fill vacancies, however caused, in the Committee. The Committee shall act pursuant to a vote of the
majority of its members or, in the case of a Committee comprised of only two members, the unanimous consent of its members, whether
present or not, or by the written consent of the majority of its members and minutes shall be kept of all of its meetings and copies
thereof shall be provided to the Board. Subject to the limitations prescribed by the Plan and the Board, the Committee may establish
and follow such rules and regulations for the conduct of its business as it may determine to be advisable.

 

3.4      Committee
Composition. Except as otherwise determined by the Board, the Committee shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors
who are also Outside Directors. The Board shall have discretion to determine whether or not it intends to comply with the exemption
requirements of Rule 16b-3 and/or Section 162(m) of the Code. However, if the Board intends to satisfy such exemption requirements,
with respect to Awards to any Covered Employee and with respect to any insider subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the Committee
shall be a compensation committee of the Board that at all times consists solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors who are
also Outside Directors. Within the scope of such authority, the Board or the Committee may (a) delegate to a committee of one or
more members of the Board who are not Outside Directors the authority to grant Awards to eligible persons who are either (i) not
then Covered Employees and are not expected to be Covered Employees at the time of recognition of income resulting from such Award
or (ii) not persons with respect to whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code or (b) delegate to a committee
of one or more members of the Board who are not Non-Employee Directors the authority to grant Awards to eligible persons who are
not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Nothing herein shall create an inference that an Award is not validly granted
under the Plan in the event Awards are granted under the Plan by a compensation committee of the Board that does not at all times
consist solely of two or more Non-Employee Directors who are also Outside Directors.

 

3.5      Indemnification.
In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as Directors or members of the Committee, and to the extent
allowed by Applicable Laws, the Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against the reasonable expenses, including attorney's
fees, actually incurred in connection with any action, suit or proceeding or in connection with any appeal therein, to which the
Committee may be party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan or any Award granted
under the Plan, and against all amounts paid by the Committee in settlement thereof (provided, however, that the settlement
has been approved by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) or paid by the Committee in satisfaction of
a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action,
suit or proceeding that such Committee did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in
the best interests of the Company, or in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reason to believe that the conduct complained
of was unlawful; provided, however, that within 60 days after institution of any such action, suit or proceeding, such Committee
shall, in writing, offer the Company the opportunity at its own expense to handle and defend such action, suit or proceeding.

4.      Shares
Subject to the Plan.

 

4.1       Subject
to adjustment in accordance with Section 11, a total of Two Million (2,000,000) shares of Common Stock shall be available
for the grant of Awards under the Plan; provided that, no more than One Million (1,000,000) shares of Common Stock may be
granted as Incentive Stock Options. Additionally, a Director may not be granted Awards covering more than One Million (1,000,000)
shares of Common Stock in any year. Any shares of Common Stock granted in connection with Awards shall be counted against this
limit as one (1) share for every one (1) share of Common Stock granted in connection with such Award. During the terms of the Awards,
the Company shall keep available at all times the number of shares of Common Stock required to satisfy such Awards.

 

4.2       Shares
of Common Stock available for distribution under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares,
treasury shares or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner.

 

4.3       Subject
to adjustment in accordance with Section 11, no Participant shall be granted, during any one (1) year period, Options
to purchase Common Stock and Stock Appreciation Rights or any other Awards with respect to more than One Million (1,000,000) shares
of Common Stock in the aggregate. If an Award is to be settled in cash, the number of shares of Common Stock on which the Award
is based shall count toward the individual share limit set forth in this Section 4.

 

4.4       Any
shares of Common Stock subject to an Award that is canceled, forfeited or expires prior to exercise or realization, either in full
or in part, shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:
shares subject to an Award under the Plan shall not again be made available for issuance or delivery under the Plan if such shares
are (a) shares tendered in payment of an Option, (b) shares delivered or withheld by the Company to satisfy any tax withholding
obligation, or (c) shares covered by a stock-settled Stock Appreciation Right or other Awards that were not issued upon the settlement
of the Award.

 

    	13

    	 

    

 

5.     Eligibility.

 

5.1       Eligibility
for Specific Awards. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. Awards other than Incentive Stock Options may
be granted to Employees, Consultants and Directors and those individuals whom the Committee determines are reasonably expected
to become Employees, Consultants and Directors following the Grant Date.

 

5.2       Ten
Percent Shareholders. A Ten Percent Shareholder shall not be granted an Incentive Stock Option unless the Option Exercise Price
is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the Grant Date and the Option is not exercisable after the expiration
of five years from the Grant Date.

 

6.     Option
Provisions. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Option so granted shall be subject
to the conditions set forth in this Section 6, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected
in the applicable Award Agreement. All Options shall be separately designated Incentive Stock Options or Non-qualified Stock Options
at the time of grant, and, if certificates are issued, a separate certificate or certificates will be issued for shares of Common
Stock purchased on exercise of each type of Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no liability to any Participant
or any other person if an Option designated as an Incentive Stock Option fails to qualify as such at any time or if an Option is
determined to constitute "nonqualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the
terms of such Option do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. The provisions of separate Options need not be
identical, but each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the
substance of each of the following provisions:

 

6.1       Term.
Subject to the provisions of Section 5.2 regarding Ten Percent Shareholders, no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable
after the expiration of 10 years from the Grant Date. The term of a Non-qualified Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be
determined by the Committee; provided, however, no Non-qualified Stock Option shall be exercisable after the expiration
of 10 years from the Grant Date.

 

6.2       Exercise
Price of An Incentive Stock Option. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.2 regarding Ten Percent Shareholders,
the Option Exercise Price of each Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock
subject to the Option on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Incentive Stock Option may be granted with an Option
Exercise Price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution
for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.

 

    	14

    	 

    

 

6.3       Exercise
Price of a Non-qualified Stock Option. The Option Exercise Price of each Non-qualified Stock Option shall be not less than
100% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Option on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Non-qualified
Stock Option may be granted with an Option Exercise Price lower than that set forth in the preceding sentence if such Option is
granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner satisfying the provisions of Section 409A of the
Code.

 

6.4       Consideration.
The Option Exercise Price of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option shall be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes
and regulations, either (a) in cash or by certified or bank check at the time the Option is exercised or (b) in the discretion
of the Committee, upon such terms as the Committee shall approve, the Option Exercise Price may be paid: (i) by delivery to the
Company of other Common Stock, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, with a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal
to the Option Exercise Price (or portion thereof) due for the number of shares being acquired, or by means of attestation whereby
the Participant identifies for delivery specific shares of Common Stock that have an aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of
attestation equal to the Option Exercise Price (or portion thereof) and receives a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
difference between the number of shares thereby purchased and the number of identified attestation shares of Common Stock (a "Stock
for Stock Exchange"); (ii) a "cashless" exercise program established with a broker; (iii) by reduction in the
number of shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon exercise of such Option with a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate
Option Exercise Price at the time of exercise; (iv) any combination of the foregoing methods; or (v) in any other form of legal
consideration that may be acceptable to the Committee. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Option, the exercise price
of Common Stock acquired pursuant to an Option that is paid by delivery (or attestation) to the Company of other Common Stock acquired,
directly or indirectly from the Company, shall be paid only by shares of the Common Stock of the Company that have been held for
more than six months (or such longer or shorter period of time required to avoid a charge to earnings for financial accounting
purposes). Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any period for which the Common Stock is publicly traded (i.e., the Common Stock
is listed on any established stock exchange or a national market system) an exercise by a Director or Officer that involves or
may involve a direct or indirect extension of credit or arrangement of an extension of credit by the Company, directly or indirectly,
in violation of Section 402(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 shall be prohibited with respect to any Award under this Plan.

 

6.5       Transferability
of An Incentive Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, designate
a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

 

    	15

    	 

    

 

6.6       Transferability
of a Non-qualified Stock Option. A Non-qualified Stock Option may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be transferable
to a Permitted Transferee, upon written approval by the Committee to the extent provided in the Award Agreement. If the Non-qualified
Stock Option does not provide for transferability, then the Non-qualified Stock Option shall not be transferable except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionholder only by the Optionholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the
Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the
Option.

 

6.7       Vesting
of Options. Each Option may, but need not, vest and therefore become exercisable in periodic installments that may, but need
not, be equal. The Option may be subject to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be exercised (which
may be based on performance or other criteria) as the Committee may deem appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Options
may vary. No Option may be exercised for a fraction of a share of Common Stock. The Committee may, but shall not be required to,
provide for an acceleration of vesting and exercisability in the terms of any Award Agreement upon the occurrence of a specified
event. 

 

6.8       Termination
of Continuous Service. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or in an employment agreement the terms of which have
been approved by the Committee, in the event an Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder's
death or Disability), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise
such Option as of the date of termination) but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (a) the date three months
following the termination of the Optionholder's Continuous Service or (b) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth
in the Award Agreement; provided that, if the termination of Continuous Service is by the Company for Cause, all outstanding
Options (whether or not vested) shall immediately terminate and cease to be exercisable. If, after termination, the Optionholder
does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified in the Award Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

 

6.9       Extension
of Termination Date. An Optionholder's Award Agreement may also provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination
of the Optionholder's Continuous Service for any reason would be prohibited at any time because the issuance of shares of Common
Stock would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or any other state or federal securities law or the
rules of any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the expiration
of the term of the Option in accordance with Section 6.1 or (b) the expiration of a period after termination of the
Participant's Continuous Service that is three months after the end of the period during which the exercise of the Option would
be in violation of such registration or other securities law requirements.

 

    	16

    	 

    

 

6.10       Disability
of Optionholder. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event that an Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates
as a result of the Optionholder's Disability, the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder
was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of termination), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier
of (a) the date 12 months following such termination or (b) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Award
Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein or in the
Award Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

 

6.11       Death
of Optionholder. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event an Optionholder's Continuous Service terminates
as a result of the Optionholder's death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise
such Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder's estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by
bequest or inheritance or by a person designated to exercise the Option upon the Optionholder's death, but only within the period
ending on the earlier of (a) the date 12 months following the date of death or (b) the expiration of the term of such Option as
set forth in the Award Agreement. If, after the Optionholder's death, the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein
or in the Award Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

 

6.12       Incentive
Stock Option $100,000 Limitation. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time of grant) of Common
Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any Optionholder during any calendar
year (under all plans of the Company and its Affiliates) exceeds $100,000, the Options or portions thereof which exceed such limit
(according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Non-qualified Stock Options.

 

7.     Provisions
of Awards Other Than Options.

 

7.1      Stock
Appreciation Rights.  

 

(a)       General

 

Each Stock Appreciation Right
granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Stock Appreciation Right so granted shall be subject to the
conditions set forth in this Section 7.1, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the
applicable Award Agreement. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted alone ("Free Standing Rights") or in tandem
with an Option granted under the Plan ("Related Rights").

 

(b)       Grant
Requirements

 

Any Related Right that relates
to a Non-qualified Stock Option may be granted at the same time the Option is granted or at any time thereafter but before the
exercise or expiration of the Option. Any Related Right that relates to an Incentive Stock Option must be granted at the same time
the Incentive Stock Option is granted.

 

    	17

    	 

    

 

(c)       Term
of Stock Appreciation Rights

 

The term of a Stock Appreciation
Right granted under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, no Stock Appreciation Right shall
be exercisable later than the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date.

 

(d)       Vesting
of Stock Appreciation Rights

 

Each Stock Appreciation Right
may, but need not, vest and therefore become exercisable in periodic installments that may, but need not, be equal. The Stock Appreciation
Right may be subject to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may be exercised as the Committee may deem
appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Stock Appreciation Rights may vary. No Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised
for a fraction of a share of Common Stock. The Committee may, but shall not be required to, provide for an acceleration of vesting
and exercisability in the terms of any Stock Appreciation Right upon the occurrence of a specified event.

 

(e)       Exercise
and Payment

 

Upon exercise of a Stock
Appreciation Right, the holder shall be entitled to receive from the Company an amount equal to the number of shares of Common
Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right that is being exercised multiplied by the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of
a share of Common Stock on the date the Award is exercised, over (ii) the exercise price specified in the Stock Appreciation Right
or related Option. Payment with respect to the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be made on the date of exercise. Payment
shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock (with or without restrictions as to substantial risk of forfeiture and transferability,
as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), cash or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.

 

(f)       Exercise
Price

 

The exercise price of a Free
Standing Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value
of one share of Common Stock on the Grant Date of such Stock Appreciation Right. A Related Right granted simultaneously with or
subsequent to the grant of an Option and in conjunction therewith or in the alternative thereto shall have the same exercise price
as the related Option, shall be transferable only upon the same terms and conditions as the related Option, and shall be exercisable
only to the same extent as the related Option; provided, however, that a Stock Appreciation Right, by its terms, shall be
exercisable only when the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock subject to the Stock Appreciation Right and related Option
exceeds the exercise price per share thereof and no Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted in tandem with an Option unless the
Committee determines that the requirements of Section 7.1(b) are satisfied.

 

    	18

    	 

    

 

(g)       Reduction
in the Underlying Option Shares

 

Upon any exercise of a Related
Right, the number of shares of Common Stock for which any related Option shall be exercisable shall be reduced by the number of
shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised. The number of shares of Common Stock for which a Related Right
shall be exercisable shall be reduced upon any exercise of any related Option by the number of shares of Common Stock for which
such Option has been exercised.

 

7.2      Restricted
Awards.  

 

(a)       General

 

A Restricted Award is an
Award of actual shares of Common Stock ("Restricted Stock") or hypothetical Common Stock units ("Restricted
Stock Units") having a value equal to the Fair Market Value of an identical number of shares of Common Stock, which may,
but need not, provide that such Restricted Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred or otherwise disposed of, pledged or hypothecated
as collateral for a loan or as security for the performance of any obligation or for any other purpose for such period (the "Restricted
Period") as the Committee shall determine. Each Restricted Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award
Agreement. Each Restricted Award so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 7.2, and to such other
conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.

 

(b)       Restricted
Stock and Restricted Stock Units

 

		(i)	Each Participant granted Restricted Stock shall execute
and deliver to the Company an Award Agreement with respect to the Restricted Stock setting forth the restrictions and other terms
and conditions applicable to such Restricted Stock. If the Committee determines that the Restricted Stock shall be held by the
Company or in escrow rather than delivered to the Participant pending the release of the applicable restrictions, the Committee
may require the Participant to additionally execute and deliver to the Company (A) an escrow agreement satisfactory to the Committee,
if applicable and (B) the appropriate blank stock power with respect to the Restricted Stock covered by such agreement. If a Participant
fails to execute an agreement evidencing an Award of Restricted Stock and, if applicable, an escrow agreement and stock power,
the Award shall be null and void. Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Award, the Participant generally shall have the
rights and privileges of a shareholder as to such Restricted Stock, including the right to vote such Restricted Stock and the
right to receive dividends.

 

    	19

    	 

    

 

		(ii)	The terms and conditions of a grant of Restricted Stock
Units shall be reflected in an Award Agreement. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued at the time a Restricted Stock Unit
is granted, and the Company will not be required to set aside a fund for the payment of any such Award. A Participant shall have
no voting rights with respect to any Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder. The Committee may also grant Restricted Stock Units
with a deferral feature, whereby settlement is deferred beyond the vesting date until the occurrence of a future payment date
or event set forth in an Award Agreement ("Deferred Stock Units").

 

(c)          Restrictions

 

		(i)	Restricted Stock awarded to a Participant shall be subject
to the following restrictions until the expiration of the Restricted Period, and to such other terms and conditions as may be
set forth in the applicable Award Agreement: (A) if an escrow arrangement is used, the Participant shall not be entitled to delivery
of the stock certificate; (B) the shares shall be subject to the restrictions on transferability set forth in the Award Agreement;
(C) the shares shall be subject to forfeiture to the extent provided in the applicable Award Agreement; and (D) to the extent
such shares are forfeited, the stock certificates shall be returned to the Company, and all rights of the Participant to such
shares and as a shareholder with respect to such shares shall terminate without further obligation on the part of the Company.

 

		(ii)	Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units awarded
to any Participant shall be subject to (A) forfeiture until the expiration of the Restricted Period, and satisfaction of any applicable
Performance Goals during such period, to the extent provided in the applicable Award Agreement, and to the extent such Restricted
Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units are forfeited, all rights of the Participant to such Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock
Units shall terminate without further obligation on the part of the Company and (B) such other terms and conditions as may be
set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

 

		(iii)	The Committee shall have the authority to remove any or
all of the restrictions on the Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units whenever it may determine that,
by reason of changes in Applicable Laws or other changes in circumstances arising after the date the Restricted Stock or Restricted
Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units are granted, such action is appropriate.

 

    	20

    	 

    

 

(d)       Restricted
Period

 

With respect to Restricted
Awards, the Restricted Period shall commence on the Grant Date and end at the time or times set forth on a schedule established
by the Committee in the applicable Award Agreement.

 

No Restricted Award may be
granted or settled for a fraction of a share of Common Stock. The Committee may, but shall not be required to, provide for an acceleration
of vesting in the terms of any Award Agreement upon the occurrence of a specified event.

 

(e)       Delivery
of Restricted Stock and Settlement of Restricted Stock Units 

 

Upon the expiration of the
Restricted Period with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock, the restrictions set forth in Section 7.2(c) and
the applicable Award Agreement shall be of no further force or effect with respect to such shares, except as set forth in the applicable
Award Agreement. If an escrow arrangement is used, upon such expiration, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, or his or
her beneficiary, without charge, the stock certificate evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock which have not then been forfeited
and with respect to which the Restricted Period has expired (to the nearest full share). Upon the expiration of the Restricted
Period with respect to any outstanding Restricted Stock Units, or at the expiration of the deferral period with respect to any
outstanding Deferred Stock Units, the Company shall deliver to the Participant, or his or her beneficiary, without charge, one
share of Common Stock for each such outstanding vested Restricted Stock Unit or Deferred Stock Unit ("Vested Unit");
provided, however, that, if explicitly provided in the applicable Award Agreement, the Committee may, in its sole discretion,
elect to pay cash or part cash and part Common Stock in lieu of delivering only shares of Common Stock for Vested Units. If a cash
payment is made in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock, the amount of such payment shall be equal to the Fair Market Value
of the Common Stock as of the date on which the Restricted Period lapsed in the case of Restricted Stock Units, or the delivery
date in the case of Deferred Stock Units, with respect to each Vested Unit.

 

(f)       Stock
Restrictions

 

Each certificate representing
Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan shall bear a legend in such form as the Company deems appropriate.

 

    	21

    	 

    

 

7.3      Performance
Share Awards.  

 

(a)       Grant
of Performance Share Awards

 

Each Performance Share Award
granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Performance Share Award so granted shall be subject to the
conditions set forth in this Section 7.3, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the
applicable Award Agreement. The Committee shall have the discretion to determine: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock or stock-denominated
units subject to a Performance Share Award granted to any Participant; (ii) the performance period applicable to any Award; (iii)
the conditions that must be satisfied for a Participant to earn an Award; and (iv) the other terms, conditions and restrictions
of the Award.

 

(b)       Earning
Performance Share Awards

 

The number of Performance
Shares earned by a Participant will depend on the extent to which the performance goals established by the Committee are attained
within the applicable Performance Period, as determined by the Committee. No payout shall be made with respect to any Performance
Share Award except upon written certification by the Committee that the minimum threshold performance goal(s) have been achieved.

 

7.4      Performance
Compensation Awards.  

 

(a)       General

 

The Committee shall have
the authority, at the time of grant of any Award described in this Plan (other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted
with an exercise price equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Grant Date), to designate
such Award as a Performance Compensation Award in order to qualify such Award as "performance-based compensation" under
Section 162(m) of the Code. In addition, the Committee shall have the authority to make an Award of a cash bonus to any Participant
and designate such Award as a Performance Compensation Award in order to qualify such Award as "performance-based compensation"
under Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

(b)       Eligibility

 

The Committee will, in its
sole discretion, designate within the first 90 days of a Performance Period (or, if longer or shorter, within the maximum period
allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code) which Participants will be eligible to receive Performance Compensation Awards in respect
of such Performance Period. However, designation of a Participant eligible to receive an Award hereunder for a Performance Period
shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive payment in respect of any Performance Compensation Award for such Performance
Period. The determination as to whether or not such Participant becomes entitled to payment in respect of any Performance Compensation
Award shall be decided solely in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.4. Moreover, designation of a Participant eligible
to receive an Award hereunder for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Participant eligible to
receive an Award hereunder in any subsequent Performance Period and designation of one person as a Participant eligible to receive
an Award hereunder shall not require designation of any other person as a Participant eligible to receive an Award hereunder in
such period or in any other period.

 

    	22

    	 

    

 

(c)      Discretion
of Committee with Respect to Performance Compensation Awards

 

With regard to a particular
Performance Period, the Committee shall have full discretion to select the length of such Performance Period (provided any such
Performance Period shall be not less than one fiscal quarter in duration), the type(s) of Performance Compensation Awards to be
issued, the Performance Criteria that will be used to establish the Performance Goal(s), the kind(s) and/or level(s) of the Performance
Goal(s) that is (are) to apply to the Company and the Performance Formula. Within the first 90 days of a Performance Period (or,
if longer or shorter, within the maximum period allowed under Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, with regard to
the Performance Compensation Awards to be issued for such Performance Period, exercise its discretion with respect to each of the
matters enumerated in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 7.4(c) and record the same in writing.

 

(d)      Payment
of Performance Compensation Awards

 

(i)       Condition
to Receipt of Payment

Unless otherwise provided in the
applicable Award Agreement, a Participant must be employed by the Company on the last day of a Performance Period to be eligible
for payment in respect of a Performance Compensation Award for such Performance Period.

 

(ii)       Limitation

A Participant shall be eligible
to receive payment in respect of a Performance Compensation Award only to the extent that: (A) the Performance Goals for such period
are achieved; and (B) the Performance Formula as applied against such Performance Goals determines that all or some portion of
such Participant's Performance Compensation Award has been earned for the Performance Period.

 

(iii)       Certification

Following the completion of a Performance
Period, the Committee shall review and certify in writing whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance
Period have been achieved and, if so, calculate and certify in writing the amount of the Performance Compensation Awards earned
for the period based upon the Performance Formula. The Committee shall then determine the actual size of each Participant's Performance
Compensation Award for the Performance Period and, in so doing, may apply Negative Discretion in accordance with Section 7.4(d)(iv)
hereof, if and when it deems appropriate.

 

    	23

    	 

    

 

(iv)       Use
of Discretion

In determining the actual size
of an individual Performance Compensation Award for a Performance Period, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the
Performance Compensation Award earned under the Performance Formula in the Performance Period through the use of Negative Discretion
if, in its sole judgment, such reduction or elimination is appropriate. The Committee shall not have the discretion to (A) grant
or provide payment in respect of Performance Compensation Awards for a Performance Period if the Performance Goals for such Performance
Period have not been attained or (B) increase a Performance Compensation Award above the maximum amount payable under Section 7.4(d)(vi)
of the Plan.

 

(v)       Timing
of Award Payments

Performance Compensation Awards
granted for a Performance Period shall be paid to Participants as soon as administratively practicable following completion of
the certifications required by this Section 7.4 but in no event later than 2 1/2 months following the end of the calendar year
during which the Performance Period is completed.

 

(vi)       Maximum
Award Payable

Notwithstanding any provision contained
in this Plan to the contrary, the maximum Performance Compensation Award payable to any one Participant under the Plan for a Performance
Period (excluding any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) is One Million (1,000,000) shares of Common Stock or, in the event
such Performance Compensation Award is paid in cash, the equivalent cash value thereof on the first or last day of the Performance
Period to which such Award relates, as determined by the Committee. The maximum amount that can be paid in any calendar year to
any Participant pursuant to a cash bonus Award described in the last sentence of Section 7.4(a) shall be $1,000,000.
Furthermore, any Performance Compensation Award that has been deferred shall not (between the date as of which the Award is deferred
and the payment date) increase (A) with respect to a Performance Compensation Award that is payable in cash, by a measuring factor
for each fiscal year greater than a reasonable rate of interest set by the Committee or (B) with respect to a Performance Compensation
Award that is payable in shares of Common Stock, by an amount greater than the appreciation of a share of Common Stock from the
date such Award is deferred to the payment date.

 

    	24

    	 

    

 

8.     Securities
Law Compliance. Each Award Agreement shall provide that no shares of Common Stock shall be purchased or sold thereunder unless
and until (a) any then applicable requirements of state or federal laws and regulatory agencies have been fully complied with to
the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel and (b) if required to do so by the Company, the Participant has executed and delivered
to the Company a letter of investment intent in such form and containing such provisions as the Committee may require. The Company
shall use reasonable efforts to seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such
authority as may be required to grant Awards and to issue and sell shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Awards; provided,
however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Award or any
Common Stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such Award. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from
any such regulatory commission or agency the authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and
sale of Common Stock under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Common Stock
upon exercise of such Awards unless and until such authority is obtained.

 

9.      Use
of Proceeds from Stock. Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Awards, or upon exercise thereof, shall constitute
general funds of the Company.

 

10.    Miscellaneous.

 

10.1       Acceleration
of Exercisability and Vesting. The Committee shall have the power to accelerate the time at which an Award may first be exercised
or the time during which an Award or any part thereof will vest in accordance with the Plan, notwithstanding the provisions in
the Award stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest.

 

10.2       Shareholder
Rights. Except as provided in the Plan or an Award Agreement, no Participant shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have
any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any shares of Common Stock subject to such Award unless and until such Participant
has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Award pursuant to its terms and no adjustment shall be made for dividends (ordinary
or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other property) or distributions of other rights for which the record date is
prior to the date such Common Stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 11 hereof.

 

    	25

    	 

    

 

10.3       No
Employment or Other Service Rights. Nothing in the Plan or any instrument executed or Award granted pursuant thereto shall
confer upon any Participant any right to continue to serve the Company or an Affiliate in the capacity in effect at the time the
Award was granted or shall affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate (a) the employment of an Employee with
or without notice and with or without Cause or (b) the service of a Director pursuant to the By-laws of the Company or an Affiliate,
and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case
may be.

 

10.4       Transfer;
Approved Leave of Absence. For purposes of the Plan, no termination of employment by an Employee shall be deemed to result
from either (a) a transfer of employment to the Company from an Affiliate or from the Company to an Affiliate, or from one Affiliate
to another, or (b) an approved leave of absence for military service or sickness, or for any other purpose approved by the Company,
if the Employee's right to reemployment is guaranteed either by a statute or by contract or under the policy pursuant to which
the leave of absence was granted or if the Committee otherwise so provides in writing, in either case, except to the extent inconsistent
with Section 409A of the Code if the applicable Award is subject thereto.

 

10.5       Withholding
Obligations. To the extent provided by the terms of an Award Agreement and subject to the discretion of the Committee, the
Participant may satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of Common
Stock under an Award by any of the following means (in addition to the Company's right to withhold from any compensation paid to
the Participant by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (a) tendering a cash payment; (b) authorizing the Company to
withhold shares of Common Stock from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Participant as a result of the exercise
or acquisition of Common Stock under the Award, provided, however, that no shares of Common Stock are withheld with a value
exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law; or (c) delivering to the Company previously owned and unencumbered
shares of Common Stock of the Company.

 

    	26

    	 

    

 

11.     Adjustments
Upon Changes in Stock. In the event of changes in the outstanding Common Stock or in the capital structure of the Company by
reason of any stock or extraordinary cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, an extraordinary corporate transaction such
as any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange, or other relevant change in capitalization
occurring after the Grant Date of any Award, Awards granted under the Plan and any Award Agreements, the exercise price of Options
and Stock Appreciation Rights, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to all Awards stated in Section 4
and the maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which any one person may be granted Awards during any period stated
in Section 4 and Section 7.4(d)(vi) will be equitably adjusted or substituted, as to the number, price or
kind of a share of Common Stock or other consideration subject to such Awards to the extent necessary to preserve the economic
intent of such Award. In the case of adjustments made pursuant to this Section 11, unless the Committee specifically determines
that such adjustment is in the best interests of the Company or its Affiliates, the Committee shall, in the case of Incentive Stock
Options, ensure that any adjustments under this Section 11 will not constitute a modification, extension or renewal of the Incentive
Stock Options within the meaning of Section 424(h)(3) of the Code and in the case of Non-qualified Stock Options, ensure that any
adjustments under this Section 11 will not constitute a modification of such Non-qualified Stock Options within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code. Any adjustments made under this Section 11 shall be made in a manner which does not adversely affect
the exemption provided pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. Further, with respect to Awards intended to qualify as "performance-based
compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code, any adjustments or substitutions will not cause the Company to be denied a
tax deduction on account of Section 162(m) of the Code. The Company shall give each Participant notice of an adjustment hereunder
and, upon notice, such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

 

12.    Effect
of Change in Control.

 

12.1       Unless
otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary:

 

(a)       In
the event of a Change in Control, all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall become immediately exercisable with respect to
100% of the shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, and/or the Restricted Period shall expire immediately
with respect to 100% of the shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

 

(b)       With respect to Performance Compensation Awards, in the event of a Change in Control, all Performance Goals or other vesting criteria
will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels and all other terms and conditions will be deemed met.

 

To the extent practicable,
any actions taken by the Committee under the immediately preceding clauses (a) and (b) shall occur in a manner and at a time which
allows affected Participants the ability to participate in the Change in Control with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject
to their Awards.

 

12.2       In
addition, in the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may in its discretion and upon at least 10 days' advance notice to
the affected persons, cancel any outstanding Awards and pay to the holders thereof, in cash or stock, or any combination thereof,
the value of such Awards based upon the price per share of Common Stock received or to be received by other shareholders of the
Company in the event. In the case of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price (or SAR Exercise Price in the
case of a Stock Appreciation Right) that equals or exceeds the price paid for a share of Common Stock in connection with the Change
in Control, the Committee may cancel the Option or Stock Appreciation Right without the payment of consideration therefor.

 

    	27

    	 

    

 

12.3       The
obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger,
consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to all or substantially
all of the assets and business of the Company and its Affiliates, taken as a whole.

 

13.    Amendment
of the Plan and Awards.

 

13.1       Amendment
of Plan. The Board at any time, and from time to time, may amend or terminate the Plan. However, except as provided in Section
11 relating to adjustments upon changes in Common Stock and Section 13.3, no amendment shall be effective
unless approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary to satisfy any Applicable Laws.
At the time of such amendment, the Board shall determine, upon advice from counsel, whether such amendment will be contingent on
shareholder approval.

 

13.2       Shareholder
Approval. The Board may, in its sole discretion, submit any other amendment to the Plan for shareholder approval, including,
but not limited to, amendments to the Plan intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations
thereunder regarding the exclusion of performance-based compensation from the limit on corporate deductibility of compensation
paid to certain executive officers.

 

13.3       Contemplated
Amendments. It is expressly contemplated that the Board may amend the Plan in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable
to provide eligible Employees, Consultants and Directors with the maximum benefits provided or to be provided under the provisions
of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder relating to Incentive Stock Options or to the nonqualified deferred compensation
provisions of Section 409A of the Code and/or to bring the Plan and/or Awards granted under it into compliance therewith.

 

13.4       No
Impairment of Rights. Rights under any Award granted before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of
the Plan unless (a) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (b) the Participant consents in writing.

 

13.5       Amendment
of Awards. The Committee at any time, and from time to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Awards; provided, however,
that the Committee may not affect any amendment which would otherwise constitute an impairment of the rights under any Award unless
(a) the Company requests the consent of the Participant and (b) the Participant consents in writing.

 

    	28

    	 

    

 

14.    General
Provisions.

 

14.1       Forfeiture
Events. The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant's rights, payments and benefits with respect to
an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain events, in addition
to applicable vesting conditions of an Award. Such events may include, without limitation, breach of non-competition, non-solicitation,
confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that are contained in the Award Agreement or otherwise applicable to the Participant,
a termination of the Participant's Continuous Service for Cause, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the
business or reputation of the Company and/or its Affiliates.

 

14.2       Clawback.
Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Plan, any Award which is subject to recovery under any law, government regulation
or stock exchange listing requirement, will be subject to such deductions and clawback as may be required to be made pursuant to
such law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement (or any policy adopted by the Company pursuant to any such
law, government regulation or stock exchange listing requirement).

 

14.3       Other
Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional compensation
arrangements, subject to shareholder approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally applicable
or applicable only in specific cases.

 

14.4       Sub-plans.
The Committee may from time to time establish sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying blue sky, securities, tax or
other laws of various jurisdictions in which the Company intends to grant Awards. Any sub-plans shall contain such limitations
and other terms and conditions as the Committee determines are necessary or desirable. All sub-plans shall be deemed a part of
the Plan, but each sub-plan shall apply only to the Participants in the jurisdiction for which the sub-plan was designed.

 

14.5       Deferral
of Awards. The Committee may establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Participants the opportunity
to elect to defer receipt of consideration upon exercise of an Award, satisfaction of performance criteria, or other event that
absent the election would entitle the Participant to payment or receipt of shares of Common Stock or other consideration under
an Award. The Committee may establish the election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of, and
accrual of interest or other earnings, if any, on amounts, shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions,
rules and procedures that the Committee deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program.

 

    	29

    	 

    

 

14.6       Unfunded
Plan. The Plan shall be unfunded. Neither the Company, the Board nor the Committee shall be required to establish any special
or separate fund or to segregate any assets to assure the performance of its obligations under the Plan.

 

14.7       Recapitalizations.
Each Award Agreement shall contain provisions required to reflect the provisions of Section 11.

 

14.8       Delivery.
Upon exercise of a right granted under this Plan, the Company shall issue Common Stock or pay any amounts due within a reasonable
period of time thereafter. Subject to any statutory or regulatory obligations the Company may otherwise have, for purposes of this
Plan, 30 days shall be considered a reasonable period of time.

 

14.9       No
Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan. The Committee shall
determine whether cash, additional Awards or other securities or property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional shares
of Common Stock or whether any fractional shares should be rounded, forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

 

14.10       Other
Provisions. The Award Agreements authorized under the Plan may contain such other provisions not inconsistent with this Plan,
including, without limitation, restrictions upon the exercise of the Awards, as the Committee may deem advisable.

 

14.11       Section
409A. The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the
maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Any payments described
in the Plan that are due within the "short-term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be
treated as deferred compensation unless Applicable Laws require otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan,
to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise
be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six (6) month period immediately following
the Participant's termination of Continuous Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary
of the Participant's separation from service (or the Participant's death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the
Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on
any Participant under Section 409A of the Code and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any Participant

14.13       Section
16. It is the intent of the Company that the Plan satisfy, and be interpreted in a manner that satisfies, the applicable requirements
of Rule 16b-3 as promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act so that Participants will be entitled to the benefit of Rule
16b-3, or any other rule promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and will not be subject to short-swing liability under
Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Accordingly, if the operation of any provision of the Plan would conflict with the intent expressed
in this Section 14.13, such provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted and/or deemed amended so as to avoid such conflict.

 

14.14        Section
162(m). To the extent the Committee issues any Award that is intended to be exempt from the deduction limitation of Section
162(m) of the Code, the Committee may, without shareholder or grantee approval, amend the Plan or the relevant Award Agreement
retroactively or prospectively to the extent it determines necessary in order to comply with any subsequent clarification of Section
162(m) of the Code required to preserve the Company's federal income tax deduction for compensation paid pursuant to any such Award.

 

14.15        Beneficiary
Designation. Each Participant under the Plan may from time to time name any beneficiary or beneficiaries by whom any right
under the Plan is to be exercised in case of such Participant's death. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the
same Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Committee and shall be effective only when filed by the Participant
in writing with the Company during the Participant's lifetime.

 

14.16        Expenses.
The costs of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Company.

 

14.17       Severability.
If any of the provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, whether in whole or
in part, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
and the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby.

 

14.18       Plan
Headings. The headings in the Plan are for purposes of convenience only and are not intended to define or limit the construction
of the provisions hereof.

 

14.19        Non-Uniform
Treatment. The Committee's determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons
who are eligible to receive, or actually receive, Awards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall
be entitled to make non-uniform and selective determinations, amendments and adjustments, and to enter into non-uniform and selective
Award Agreements.

15.    Effective
Date of Plan. The Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date, but no Award shall be exercised (or, in the case of
a stock Award, shall be granted) unless and until the Plan has been approved by the shareholders of the Company, which approval
shall be within twelve (12) months before or after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board.

 

16.    Termination
or Suspension of the Plan. The Plan shall terminate automatically on April 30, 2025. No Award shall be granted pursuant to
the Plan after such date, but Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan
at any earlier date pursuant to Section 13.1 hereof. No Awards may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended
or after it is terminated. Unless the Company determines to submit Section 7.4 of the Plan and the definition of
"Performance Goal" and "Performance Criteria" to the Company's shareholders at the first shareholder meeting
that occurs in the fifth year following the year in which the Plan was last approved by shareholders (or any earlier meeting designated
by the Board), in accordance with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, and such shareholder approval is obtained, then
no further Performance Compensation Awards shall be made to Covered Employees under Section 7.4 after the date of
such annual meeting, but the Plan may continue in effect for Awards to Participants not in accordance with Section 162(m) of the
Code.

 

17.    Choice
of Law. The law of the State of Ohio shall govern all questions concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of
this Plan, without regard to such state's conflict of law rules.

 

As adopted by the Board
of Directors of Intellinetics, Inc. on April 30, 2015.

 

As approved by the shareholders
of Intellinetics, Inc. on a date that shall be determined, provided that this plan shall be put to a vote by the shareholders of
Intellinetics, Inc. for approval no later than April 30, 2016.
