EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

THIS EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made and entered into on this 28th day of June, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), between CapStar Bank, a Tennessee banking corporation headquartered in Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee, hereinafter referred
to as “Bank,” and Christopher Tietz, hereinafter referred to as “Executive.” 
 W I T N E S S E T

 WHEREAS, the Bank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation established to be a
bank holding company, (the “Company”) and Executive has been employed by Bank as its Chief Credit Officer since March 1, 2016; and 

WHEREAS, Executive and Bank desire to continue to employ Executive to render services to it for the periods and upon the terms and conditions
provided for in this Agreement; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, for the reasons set forth above and in consideration for the mutual promises and
agreements set forth herein, Bank and Executive agree as follows: 
 1. Employment. Subject to continued approval of the Tennessee
Department of Financial Institutions and other bank regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the operations of Bank, Bank hereby agrees that effective on the Effective Date, Executive shall continue to be employed by Bank as its Chief Credit
Officer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Executive agrees to devote his best efforts and his full-time employment to Bank’s business, operations and strategic planning and perform such other
related activities and duties as the board of directors of Bank (the “Board”) may, from time to time, determine and assign to Executive. Executive’s services and decisions shall be subject to the review, modification and
control of the Board. Service on the Board by Executive shall be included in the scope of Executive’s employment if he so serves. 
 2.
Compensation. During the term of Executive’s employment hereunder: 
 (a) Salary. For the services provided for herein,
Bank shall pay to Executive, and Executive shall accept from Bank, a base salary of Two Hundred Seventy Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($270,000.00) per annum (Executive’s “Base Salary”), subject to any and all withholdings and
deductions required by law, payable in accordance with the customary payroll practices of Bank. During the term of this Agreement, Executive’s Base Salary shall be reviewed from time to time by the Board, and may be increased, but not decreased
below the Base Salary, from time to time by the Board, based upon such factors as it may establish from time to time. 
 (b)
Benefits. Bank shall provide to Executive, consistent with the terms and conditions of the respective plans, and pay the cost of, such employee benefits as are provided to Executive Officers of Bank generally under benefit plans adopted by
Bank from time to time (such benefit plans of Bank in effect from time to time, “Employee Benefit Plans”). The Employee Benefit Plans may include vacation days, sick days or other types of paid or unpaid leave, insurance programs,
pension plans, profit sharing plans, bonus plans, stock option plans, restricted stock plans or other stock-based incentive plans, and other employee benefit plans. Provision of such benefit plans by Bank is within the sole discretion of Bank, and
any such benefits may be amended, modified or discontinued at any time by Bank. 

  
 - 1 - 

 (c) Reimbursements. Upon timely and well-documented requests by Executive submitted
within one month from the payment of such expenses by Executive, Bank shall reimburse Executive for Executive’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of Executive’s duties or otherwise for the benefit of bank,
specifically including any business expenses incurred with the prior approval of the Board. Such reimbursements shall be made in accordance with the policies established by Bank from time to time, recognizing that Bank may have different
reimbursement policies for executive officers, and likewise may have different reimbursement policies for Executive as Chief Financial Officer of Bank. Such reimbursements may be approved by Bank on a one-time basis for a particular expenditure, or
on an ongoing basis, and may include automobile expense reimbursements, among others; provided, that such ongoing approvals shall be subject to change from time to time. 

3. Term of Employment; Renewal. The initial extended term of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement shall commence on
the Effective Date and shall end on May 31, 2017 (the “Initial Term”). The Term of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement may be renewed and the term thereof extended by one (1) additional year (each, an
“Extended Term”) at the end of the Initial Term and at the end of each Extended Term, by mutual agreement of the parties, which shall be evidenced by each party giving notice of renewal to the other party at least ninety
(90) days prior to the expiration of the then-current Extended Term. The Initial term and all Extended Terms are collectively referred to herein as the “Term.” 

4. Termination of Employment. 

(a) Termination By Bank. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions in this Agreement, Bank, by action of the Board, may terminate
or elect not to extend the employment of Executive hereunder without notice at any time, for Cause or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” includes, but is not limited to: (i) any material breach of the terms of this
Agreement which negatively impacts Bank; (ii) personal dishonesty, fraud, disloyalty, or theft; (iii) disclosure of Bank’s confidential information except in the course of performing his duties while employed by Bank;
(iv) willful illegal or disruptive conduct which impairs the reputation, goodwill or business position of Bank; (v) breach of fiduciary duty involving personal profit; (vi) any order or request for removal of Executive by any
regulatory authority having jurisdiction over Bank; or (vii) Executive’s disability, as defined in any disability insurance policy of Bank with benefits payable to Executive, or if there is no such disability insurance policy, then as
defined in Bank’s established policy applicable to executive officers (“Disability”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive shall not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there shall have been
delivered to Executive a copy of a resolution duly adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the Board at a duly constituted meeting of the Board, finding that in the good faith opinion of the Board, Executive was guilty of
conduct justifying Termination for Cause and specifying the reasons therefor. Executive shall have the right to appear and defend himself at any meeting of the Board at which such a resolution is under consideration. 

(b) For Cause; Nonrenewal. In the event of termination of Executive by Bank for Cause or election by Bank or Executive not to renew or
extend the Term, Executive shall be entitled to receive only the compensation that has been earned and accrued as of the date of termination but no other monies or benefits except that: (A) in the case of Executive’s Disability, if no
disability plan or disability insurance policy is in place, Executive shall receive fifty per cent (50%) of his Base Salary for a period not to exceed twenty four (24) weeks following the date of termination; and (B) subject to
Section 12 hereof, Executive shall be entitled to receive any extended benefits provided to all employees of Bank or required by law, such as, for example, COBRA health insurance coverage. 

  
 - 2 - 

 (c) Without Cause. In the event that: (A) Bank terminates executive’s employment
hereunder without cause; or (B) Bank engages in conduct that constitutes Good Reason, Executive shall be entitled (i) to resign from his employment with Bank, (ii) to continue to receive his Base Salary, payable as before such
termination, for a period of one (1) year after the effective date of such termination, (iii) subject to Section 13 hereof, be provided, for a period of twelve (12) months after such termination, with life, medical, dental and
disability coverage substantially identical to the coverage maintained by the Bank for Executive prior to Executive’s severance, and (iv) to receive all benefits and reimbursements accrued and payable to Executive at the time of
termination of his employment hereunder, including any stock or payments to which Executive is entitled under, and subject to the terms of, all incentive plans in which Executive participates (including and subject to the terms of each and any
individual grant or award agreement), including stock option plans, restricted stock plans, performance share plans, and any other stock-based or cash-based incentive plans and the individual grant or award agreements under such plans (collectively,
Executive’s “Severance Pay”); provided, however, that if Bank offers and Executive voluntarily accepts terms of employment that would otherwise constitute Good reason, then Executive shall be deemed to have waived
his right to resign and receive Severance Pay. Upon termination of Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason (other than by Bank for Cause), whether voluntarily by Executive or by termination by Bank without Cause, by non-renewal, or
otherwise, Executive shall continue to be bound by the provisions contained in Sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 hereof. In the event Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by Bank for Cause, Executive shall not be bound by the covenant not to
compete set forth in Section 8 hereof. 
 (d) By Executive. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions in this Agreement,
Executive may terminate or elect not to extend his employment hereunder without notice at any time. In the event of a termination or election not to extend the Term by Executive for any reason other than Good Reason, including the death or
Disability of Executive, Executive shall be entitled to receive only the compensation that has been earned and benefits and reimbursements that have accrued as of the date of termination and any extended benefits required by law, but no other monies
or benefits other than continuing benefits under any retirement plan, disability insurance policy, or life insurance policy payable by virtue of the retirement, death or disability of Executive having occurred prior to such termination of
employment. Upon termination of Executive’s employment by Executive for whatever reason, Executive shall continue to be bound by the provisions set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9, and 10 hereof. 

5. Change in Control. Capitalized terms used in this Section 5 or in Section 6 but not otherwise defined in this
Section 5 or in Section 6 shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 11. 
 (a) Entitlement to Benefits upon
Termination. Subject to Section 12 hereof, if during the Protection Period a Qualifying Termination of Executive’s employment occurs, Bank shall pay to Executive the Change in Control benefits described in this Section 5. Change
in Control benefits shall not be payable if Executive’s employment is terminated (i) for Cause, (ii) by Executive voluntarily without Good Reason or (iii) by reason of Disability. In addition, the Change in Control benefits shall
not be payable if Executive’s employment is terminated for any or no reason prior to or following the Protection Period. 
 (b)
Change in Control Payment and Benefits. Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to one (1) times Executive’s Base Salary in effect immediately prior to the date of termination (the “Change in Control
Payment”), which shall be paid in twelve (12) equal monthly payments commencing on the first business day of the first month following the date of termination. Subject to Section 13 hereof, if a Qualifying Termination of
Executive’s employment occurs during the Protection Period, Bank shall maintain for the remaining duration of the Protection Period Executive’s health insurance coverage under any applicable Employee Benefit Plans, including any insurance
policy held by Bank, and pay Bank’s portion of such coverage, with the intent of the parties being that Executive 

  
 - 3 - 

 
shall continue to receive such health insurance coverage for a period of twelve (12) months following a Change in Control. Subject to Section 13 hereof, Executive shall have the right
to continue COBRA health insurance coverage at the end of the Protection Period. 
 6. Compliance with Section 409A. 

(a) Executive shall not have any right to make any election regarding the time or form of any payment due under this Agreement. 

(b) A payment of any amount or benefit hereunder that is (i) subject to Code Section 409A, and (ii) to be made because of a
termination of employment shall not be made unless such termination is also a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder and, for purposes of any such provision of this
Agreement, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment,” “resignation” or like terms shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if at the time of Executive’s “separation from service” Executive is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A), then to the extent that any amount to
which Executive is entitled in connection with his separation from service is subject to Code Section 409A, payments of such amounts to which Executive would otherwise be entitled during the six month period following the separation from
service will be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the earlier of (i) the first day of the seventh month after the date of the separation from service, or (ii) the date of Executive’s death. This paragraph shall apply only to the
extent required to avoid Executive’s incurrence of any additional tax or interest under section 409A or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder. 

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other arrangement to the contrary, to the extent that any payment to Executive
under the terms of this Agreement or any other arrangement would constitute an impermissible acceleration or deferral of payments under Code Section 409A of the or any regulations or Treasury guidance promulgated thereunder, or under the terms
of any applicable plan, program, arrangement or policy of Company, such payments shall be made no earlier or later than at such times allowed under Code Section 409A or the terms of such plan, program, arrangement or policy. 

(d) Any payments provided in this Agreement or any other arrangement subject to Code Section 409A as an installment of payments or
benefits, is intended to constitute a separately identified “payment” for purposes of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). 
 7.
Confidentiality. Executive shall not, at any time or in any manner, during or after the Term, either directly or indirectly, divulge, disclose or communicate to any person, firm or corporation in any manner, whatsoever, any material
information concerning any matters affecting or relating to the business of Bank, except in the course of performing his duties while employed by Bank This includes, without limitation, the name of Bank’s clients, customers or suppliers, the
terms and conditions of any contract to which Bank is a party or any other information concerning the business of Bank, its manner or operations or its plans for the future without regard to whether all of the foregoing matters will be deemed
confidential, material or important. Executive further agrees that he shall continue to be bound by the provisions of this Section 8 following any termination of Executive’s employment pursuant to this Agreement. 

8. Covenant Not to Compete. During the Term and for the period of twelve (12) months thereafter, upon termination of
Executive’s employment hereunder for any reason (other than by Bank for Cause), whether voluntarily by Executive or by termination by Bank without Cause, by non renewal, or 

  
 - 4 - 

 
otherwise, and whether before or after a Change in Control, Executive agrees that Executive shall not be employed by, consult with, or directly or indirectly own, become interested in, or become
involved in any manner whatsoever in any business (including any bank or other financial institution in organization) which is or will be similar to or competitive with any aspect of the business of Bank which operates a bank branch or other
business location in Davidson, Sumner or Williamson Counties, Tennessee, or in any other county in which Bank operates a bank branch or other business location, determined as of the date of termination of Executive’s employment with Bank.
Executive agrees that should a court find the geographical scope of this covenant unreasonably broad, such court should nevertheless enforce this covenant to the extent that it deems reasonable. Executive specifically acknowledges and agrees that
the foregoing restriction on competition with Bank will not prevent Executive from obtaining gainful employment following termination of employment with Bank and is a reasonable restriction upon Executive’s ability to compete with Bank and to
secure such gainful employment. In the event Executive’s employment hereunder is terminated by Bank for Cause, Executive shall not be bound by the covenant not to compete in this Section 9. 

9. Non-Solicitation Covenant. Executive agrees that for a period of one (1) year following the termination of his employment with
Bank, he shall not contact or solicit, directly or indirectly, any customer or account that was a customer or account of Bank within twelve (12) months prior to the termination of Executive’s employment with Bank. Executive further agrees
that for a period of one (1) year following the termination of his employment with Bank, he shall not contact or solicit, directly or indirectly, any employee or person who was an employee of Bank within twelve (12) months prior to the
termination of Executive’s employment with Bank. The parties agree that these covenants are intended to prohibit Executive from engaging in such proscribed activities as an owner, partner, director, officer, executive, consultant, stockholder,
agent, salesperson, or in any other capacity for any person, partnership, firm, corporation or other entity (including any financial institution in organization) unless he receives the express written consent of the Board. Executive specifically
acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing restriction on competition with Bank will not prevent Executive from obtaining gainful employment following termination of his employment with Bank and is a reasonable restriction upon Executive’s
ability to compete with Bank and to secure such gainful employment. 
 10. No Enticement of Officers. Executive shall not, directly
or indirectly, entice or induce, or attempt to entice or induce any Officer of Bank to leave such employment during the term of this Agreement or within one (1) year thereafter. 

11. Certain Definitions. Whenever used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein, the following terms shall have the meanings
set forth below:

occurred, provided that the board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) shall have determined that any such transaction or circumstance has resulted in a Change in Control, as defined in this paragraph, which
determination shall be made in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. § 1. 409A-3(i)(5): 
  

	 	(i)	 the date that any person, or persons acting as a group, as described in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(5) (a

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 40% of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding
voting securities (as defined below); 

  

	 	(ii)	the merger, acquisition or consolidation of the Company or the Bank with any corporation pursuant to which the other corporation immediately after such merger, acquisition or consolidation owns more than 50% of the

 - 6 - 

 12. COBRA Health Insurance Coverage. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to require Bank to extend COBRA health insurance coverage benefits to Executive in violation of applicable law. In the event that, following termination of Executive’s employment with
Bank, Executive shall be entitled to receive extended insurance benefits pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Executive shall be required to elect COBRA health insurance coverage and, thereafter, Bank shall be financially responsible for such
coverage to Executive through a COBRA subsidy; provided, however, that at such time as Bank is no longer permitted to extend COBRA health insurance coverage benefits to Executive under applicable law, Bank shall provide a cash payment
to Executive in lieu of such subsidy (with each cash payment being equal to the amount of the last COBRA subsidy provided to Executive prior to Executive’s termination pursuant to the terms hereof), and Executive shall elect and obtain his own
health insurance coverage. 
 13. Remedies. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the breach or threatened breach of any of the
provisions of Sections 7, 8, 9, or 10 of this Agreement will cause irreparable harm to Bank which cannot be adequately compensated by the payment of damages. Accordingly, Executive covenants and agrees that Bank, in addition to any other rights or
remedies which Bank may have, shall be entitled to such equitable and injunctive relief as may be available from any court of competent jurisdiction to restrain Executive from breaching or threatening to breach any of the provisions of this
Agreement, without the requirement that Bank post bond or other surety. Such right to obtain injunctive relief may be exercised at the option of Bank in addition to, concurrently with, prior to, after, or in lieu of the exercise of any other rights
or remedies which Bank may have as a result of any such breach or threatened breach. 
 14. Entire Agreement. Bank and Executive
agree that this Agreement contains the complete agreement concerning the employment arrangement, written or oral, between them and that this Agreement supersedes all prior negotiations, practices and/or agreements. Neither party has made any
representations that are not contained herein on which either party has relied in entering into this Agreement. 
 15. Assignment. It
is agreed that Bank shall have the right to assign this Agreement to any purchaser of the business of or substantially all of the assets of Bank. This is a personal services contract, and may not be assigned by Executive. 

16. Modification. This Agreement shall not be modified or amended except by a writing duly executed by both parties. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless the waiver is in writing and duly executed by both parties. 
 17. Waiver of
Breach. The waiver by a party of the breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same of any other provision hereof by that party. 

18. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable, and the invalidity of any provisions or portion thereof shall
not affect the validity of the other provisions. 
 19. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Tennessee.

STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 

RECITALS 
 WHEREAS,
CapStar Financial Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the “Company”) was created to be a bank holding company and entered into a securities exchange agreement with the CapStar Bank (the “Bank”) that was approved by the
shareholders of the Bank and Company and became effective on February 5, 2016 (the “Exchange Agreement”) and, pursuant thereto, the Bank is now a wholly owned subsidiary of CapStar;

SECTION 2. THE STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 

2.1 Purpose of the Plan. The Plan is intended to (a) provide incentives to certain officers, employees, directors, and other
service providers of the Company and its Affiliates to stimulate their efforts toward the continued success of the Company and to operate and manage the business in a manner that will provide for the long-term growth and profitability of the

Company, acquire shares of Stock, or to receive compensation which is based upon appreciation in the value of Stock; and (c) provide a means of obtaining, rewarding and retaining officers,
employees, directors, and other service providers. 
 2.2 Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to adjustment in accordance with
Section 5.2, one million five hundred sixty-nine thousand four hundred seventy-five (1,569,475) shares of Stock (the “Maximum Plan Shares”) are hereby reserved exclusively for issuance upon exercise or payment pursuant to Stock
Incentives, all or any of which may be pursuant to any one or more Stock Incentive, including without limitation, Incentive Stock Options. Except as provided in the second paragraph of Section 2.4 below, the shares of Stock attributable to the
nonvested, unpaid, unexercised, unconverted or otherwise unsettled portion of any Stock Incentive that is forfeited or cancelled or expires or terminates for any reason without becoming vested, paid, exercised, converted or otherwise settled in full
and shares of stock deducted or withheld to satisfy tax withholding (other than shares of Stock that are withheld from a Stock Award upon vesting) will again be available for purposes of the Plan. 

2.3 Administration of the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Committee. The Committee has full authority in its discretion to
determine the officers, employees, directors and other service providers of the Company or its Affiliates to whom Stock Incentives will be granted and the terms and provisions of Stock Incentives, subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of
the Plan, the Committee has full and conclusive authority to interpret the Plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; to determine the terms and provisions of the respective Stock Incentive Agreements and to
make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the Plan. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among persons who receive, or are eligible to
receive, awards under the Plan (whether or not such persons are similarly situated). The Committee’s decisions are final and binding on all Participants. Each member of the Committee shall serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors and
the Board of Directors may from time to time remove members from or add members to the Committee. Vacancies on the Committee shall be filled by the Board of Directors. 

2.4 Eligibility. Stock Incentives may be granted pursuant to this plan only to officers, employees, directors, and other service
providers of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company; provided, however, that an Incentive Stock Option may only be granted to an employee of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary. In the case of Incentive Stock Options, the aggregate Fair

 SECTION 3. TERMS OF STOCK INCENTIVES 

3.1 Terms and Conditions of All Stock Incentives. 

(a) The number of shares of Stock as to which a Stock Incentive may be granted will be determined by the Committee in its sole
discretion, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2 as to the total number of shares available for grants under the Plan and subject to the limits in Section 2.4. 

(b) Each Stock Incentive will either be evidenced by a Stock Incentive Agreement in such form and containing such, terms,
conditions and restrictions as the Committee may determine to be appropriate or be made subject to the terms of a Stock Incentive Program, containing such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee may determine to be appropriate. Each
Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program is subject to the terms of the Plan and any provisions contained in the Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program that are inconsistent with the Plan are null and void. The Committee
may, but is not required to, structure any Stock Incentive so as to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m). 

(c) The date as of which a Stock Incentive is granted will be the date on which the Committee has approved the terms and
conditions of the Stock Incentive and has determined the recipient of the Stock Incentive and the number of shares, if any, covered by the Stock Incentive, and has taken all such other actions necessary to complete the grant of the Stock Incentive.

 (d) Any Stock Incentive may be granted in connection with all or any portion of a previously or contemporaneously granted
Stock Incentive. Exercise or vesting of a Stock Incentive granted in connection with another Stock Incentive may result in a pro rata surrender or cancellation of any related Stock Incentive, as specified in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement
or Stock Incentive Program. 
 (e) Stock Incentives are not transferable or assignable except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution and are exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant; or in the event of the Disability of the Participant, by the legal representative of the Participant; or in the event of death of the
Participant, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate or if no legal representative has been appointed, by the successor in interest determined under the Participant’s will; except to the extent that the Committee may
provide otherwise as to any Stock Incentives other than Incentive Stock Options. 
 (f) After the date of grant of a Stock
Incentive, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, modify the terms and conditions of a Stock Incentive, except to the extent that such modification would be inconsistent with other provisions of the Plan or would materially adversely affect the
rights of a Participant under the Stock Incentive (except as otherwise permitted under the Plan), or to the extent that the mere possession (as opposed to the exercise) of such power would result in adverse tax consequences to any Participant under
Code Section 409A. 
 3.2 Terms and Conditions of Options. Each Option granted under the Plan must be evidenced by a Stock
Incentive Agreement. At the time any Option is granted, the Committee will determine whether the Option is to be an Incentive Stock Option described in Code Section 422 

  
 6 

 
or a Non-Qualified Stock Option, and the Option must be clearly identified as to its status as an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Incentive Stock Options may only be
granted to employees of the Company or any Subsidiary or Parent. At the time any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan is exercised, the Company will be entitled to legend the certificates representing the shares of Stock purchased pursuant
to the Option to clearly identify them as representing the shares purchased upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option may only be granted within ten (10) years from the earlier of the date the Plan is adopted or
approved by the Company’s stockholders. 
 (a) Option Price. Subject to adjustment in accordance with
Section 5.2 and the other provisions of this Section 3.2, the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Stock on the date the Option is
granted. With respect to each grant of an Incentive Stock Option to a Participant who is an Over 10% Owner, the Exercise Price may not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date the Option is granted. 

(b) Option Term. Any Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who is not an Over 10% Owner is not exercisable
after the expiration of ten (10) years after the date the Option is granted. Any Incentive Stock Option granted to an Over 10% Owner is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years after the date the Option is granted. The term
of any Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be as specified in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement. 
 (c) Payment.
Except as otherwise provided in a Stock Incentive Agreement, payment of the Exercise Price will be made in cash or in other consideration acceptable to the Committee. No shares may be issued or delivered upon exercise of an Option and the holder of
the Option shall not have the rights of a stockholder with respect to the shares of Stock covered thereby until full payment has been made. 

(d) Conditions to the Exercise of an Option. Each Option granted under the Plan is exercisable on the terms specified in
the award and set forth in the Stock Incentive Agreement. Subsequent to the grant of an Option, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Option, may modify the terms of an Option to the extent not prohibited by the terms of the
Plan, including, without limitation, accelerating the time or times at which such Option may be exercised in whole or in part; provided, however, that however, that the Committee may not modify an Option in a manner that would result in adverse tax
consequences to any Participant under Code Section 409A. 
 (e) Termination of Stock Options. The termination of
the right to exercise an Option shall be specified in the respective Stock Incentive Agreement for a Non-Qualified Stock Option. With respect to an Incentive Stock Option, in the event of Termination of Employment of a Participant, the Option or
portion thereof held by the Participant which is unexercised will expire, terminate, and become unexercisable no later than the expiration of three (3) months after the date of Termination of Employment; provided, however, that in the case of a
holder whose Termination of Employment is due to death or Disability, up to one (1) year may be substituted for such three (3) month period. For purposes of this Subsection (e), Termination of Employment of the

  
 7 

 
Participant will not be deemed to have occurred if the Participant is employed by another corporation (or a parent or subsidiary corporation of such other corporation) which has assumed the
Incentive Stock Option of the Participant in a transaction to which Code Section 424(a) is applicable. 
 (f) Special
Provisions for Certain Substitute Options. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.2, any Option issued in substitution for an option previously issued by another entity, which substitution occurs in connection with a
transaction to which Code Section 424(a) is applicable, may provide for an exercise price computed in accordance with such Code Section and the regulations thereunder and may contain such other terms and conditions as the Committee may
prescribe to cause such substitute Option to contain as nearly as possible the same terms and conditions (including the applicable vesting and termination provisions) as those contained in the previously issued option being replaced thereby. 

3.3 Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan must be evidenced by a
Stock Incentive Agreement. A Stock Appreciation Right entitles the Participant to receive the excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of a specified or determinable number of shares of the Stock at the time of payment or exercise over (2) a
specified or determinable price which may not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date of grant. A Stock Appreciation Right granted in connection with a Stock Incentive may only be exercised to the extent that the related Stock
Incentive has not been exercised, paid or otherwise settled. 
 (a) Settlement. Upon settlement of a Stock
Appreciation Right, the Company must pay to the Participant the appreciation in cash or shares of Stock (valued at the aggregate Fair Market Value on the date of payment or exercise) as provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement or, in the absence of
such provision, as the Committee may determine. 
 (b) Conditions to Exercise. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted
under the Plan is exercisable or payable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee specifies in the Stock Incentive Agreement; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant of a
Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Stock Appreciation Right, may accelerate the time or times at which such Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised or paid in whole or in part. 

3.4 Terms and Conditions of Stock Awards. The number of shares of Stock subject to a Stock Award and restrictions or conditions on such
shares, if any, will be as the Committee determines, and the certificate for such shares will bear evidence of any restrictions or conditions. Subsequent to the date of the grant of the Stock Award, the Committee has the power to permit, in its
discretion, an acceleration of the expiration of an applicable restriction period with respect to any part or all of the shares awarded to a Participant. The Committee may require a cash payment from the Participant in an amount no greater than the
aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock awarded determined at the date of grant in exchange for the grant of a Stock Award or may grant a Stock Award without the requirement of a cash payment. 

  
 8 

 3.5 Terms and Conditions of Dividend Equivalent Rights. A Dividend Equivalent Right
entitles the Participant to receive payments from the Company in an amount determined by reference to any cash dividends paid on a specified number of shares of Stock to Company stockholders of record during the period such rights are effective. The
Committee may impose such restrictions and conditions on any Dividend Equivalent Right as the Committee in its discretion shall determine, including the date any such right shall terminate and may reserve the right to terminate, amend or suspend any
such right at any time. 
 (a) Payment. Payment in respect of a Dividend Equivalent Right may be made by the Company
in cash or shares of Stock (valued at Fair Market Value as of the date payment is owed) as provided in the Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program, or, in the absence of such provision, as the Committee may determine. 

(b) Conditions to Payment. Each Dividend Equivalent Right granted under the Plan is payable at such time or times, or
upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee specifies in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program; provided, however, that subsequent to the grant of a Dividend Equivalent Right, the
Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Dividend Equivalent Right, may accelerate the time or times at which such Dividend Equivalent Right may be paid in whole or in part; provided, however, that the Committee shall not have such
power to the extent that the mere possession (as opposed to the exercise) of such power would result in adverse tax consequences to any Participant under Code Section 409A. 

3.6 Terms and Conditions of Performance Unit Awards. A Performance Unit Award shall entitle the Participant to receive, at a specified
future date, payment of an amount equal to all or a portion of the value of a specified or determinable number of units (stated in terms of a designated or determinable dollar amount per unit) granted by the Committee. At the time of the grant, the
Committee must determine the base value, of each unit, the number of units subject to a Performance Unit Award, and the performance goals applicable to the determination of the ultimate payment value of the Performance Unit Award. The Committee may
provide for an alternate base value for each unit under certain specified conditions. 
 (a) Payment. Payment in
respect of Performance Unit Awards may be made by the Company in cash or shares of Stock (valued at Fair Market Value as of the date payment is owed) as provided in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program or, in the
absence of such provision, as the Committee may determine. 
 (b) Conditions to Payment. Each Performance Unit Award
granted under the Plan shall be payable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee may specify in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program; provided,
however, that subsequent to the grant of a Performance Unit Award, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Performance Unit Award, may accelerate the time or times at which such Performance Unit Award may be paid in whole or
in part; provided, however, that the Committee shall not have such power to the extent that the mere possession (as opposed to the exercise) of such power would result in adverse tax consequences to any Participant under Code Section 409A.

 3.7 Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units shall entitle
the Participant to receive, at a specified future date or event, payment of an amount equal to all or a portion of the Fair Market Value of a specified number of shares of Stock at the end of a specified period. At the time of the grant, the
Committee will determine the factors which will govern the portion of the Restricted Stock Units so payable, including, at the discretion of the Committee, any performance criteria that must be satisfied as a condition to payment. Restricted Stock
Unit awards containing performance criteria may be designated as performance share awards. 
 (a) Payment. Payment in
respect of Restricted Stock Units may be made by the Company in cash or shares of Stock (valued at Fair Market Value as of the date payment is owed) as provided in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program, or, in the
absence of such provision, as the Committee may determine. 
 (b) Conditions to Payment. Each Restricted Stock Unit
granted under the Plan is payable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and in such amounts, as the Committee may specify in the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program; provided, however,
that subsequent to the grant of a Restricted Stock Unit, the Committee, at any time before complete termination of such Restricted Stock Unit, may accelerate the time or times at which such Restricted Stock Unit may be paid in whole or in part;
provided, however, that the Committee shall not have such power to the extent that the mere possession (as opposed to the exercise) of such power would result in adverse tax consequences to any Participant under Code Section 409A.

Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program, or, as the Committee may otherwise determine to the extent not prohibited by the Plan. The portion of any award exercisable in the event of continuation or the amount of any payment due under a
continued award may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect the Participant’s period of service from the date of grant through the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment or other service relationship or such other factors as
the Committee determines are relevant to its decision to continue the award. 
 SECTION 4. RESTRICTIONS ON STOCK 

4.1 Custody of Shares. Shares of Stock that are awarded under a Stock Incentive will be issued in book form or held by the Company as

and the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program, and the shares so transferred will continue to be bound by the Plan and the applicable Stock Incentive Agreement or Stock Incentive Program. 

SECTION 5. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

5.1 Withholding. The Company must deduct from all cash distributions under the Plan any taxes required to be withheld by federal, state
or local government. Whenever the Company proposes or is required to issue or transfer shares of Stock under the Plan or upon the vesting of any Stock Award, the Company shall withhold or require the recipient to remit to the Company an amount
sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of shares of Stock upon the exercise or vesting of such Stock Incentive. 

5.2 Changes in Capitalization; Merger; Liquidation. 

(a) Adjustments to Shares. The number and kind of shares of Stock with respect to which Stock Incentives hereunder may

the event that: 
 (1) the Company or an Affiliate effects on or more Stock dividends, Stock splits, reverse Stock splits,
subdivisions, consolidations or other similar events; 
 (2) the Company or an Affiliate engages in a transaction to which
section 424 of the Code applies;

action; 
 provided, however, that if such an event occurs, the Committee shall make adjustments to the limits on Stock Incentives specified
in Section 2.2 that are proportionate to the modifications of the Stock that are on account of such corporate changes. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company or any consolidation or merger of the
Company with another person, or the sale of all or substantially all the Company’s assets to another person, shall be effected such that holders of Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or other property (including, without
limitation, cash) with respect to or in exchange for Stock, then each holder of a Stock Incentive shall thereafter have the right to acquire in accordance with the terms and conditions specified herein and in the Stock Incentive Agreement such
shares of stock, 

  
 11 

 
securities or other property (including, without limitation, cash) as would be issuable or payable in such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale with respect to or in
exchange for a number of shares of Stock that could have been acquired immediately theretofore with respect to such Stock Incentive had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale not taken place, subject to such adjustments
as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine to be appropriate. 
 (b) Substitution of Stock Incentives on
Merger or Acquisition. The Committee may grant Stock Incentives in substitution for stock awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar awards held by an individual who becomes an employee of the Company or an Affiliate in
connection with a transaction to which section 424(a) of the Code applies. The terms of such substituted Stock Incentives shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, subject only to the limitations of Section 2.2. 

(c) Effect of Certain Transactions. Unless expressly provided to the contrary in an applicable Stock Incentive
Agreement, if the Company experiences an event which results in a Change in Control (as defined below), the Committee shall in its sole discretion provide for one of the following measures with respect to outstanding Awards: 

(1) The continuation or assumption of such outstanding Award under the Plan by the Company (if it is the surviving entity) or
by the surviving or acquirer entity or its direct or indirect parent; 
 (2) The substitution by the surviving or acquirer
entity or its direct or indirect parent of share awards with substantially the same terms and economic value for such outstanding Award; 

(3) The expiration of such outstanding Award to the extent not timely exercised or purchased by the date of the consummation of
the Change in Control or other subsequent date designated by the Committee, after reasonable advance written notice thereof to the holder of such Award and full acceleration of the vesting of the Award; 

(4) The cancellation of all or any portion of such outstanding Award; provided that, with respect to
“in-the-money” Options, such cancellation must be made in exchange for a payment in cash or Common shares with a value equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Stock subject to such Option or portion thereof being canceled over
the exercise or purchase price, if any, with respect to such Option or portion thereof being canceled; or 
 (5) The
continuation of the outstanding Awards following the Change in Control without modification, provided that an Award will be fully vested and exercisable in the event that the employment of the holder (or other service relationship) is terminated
without “Cause” or the holder resigns his or her position for “Good Reason” within one year of such Change in Control Event. For purposes of this Section, the terms “Cause” and “Good Reason” shall be

was guilty of conduct justifying termination for Cause and specifying the reasons therefor. Executive shall have the right to appear and defend himself at any meeting of the Board at which such a resolution is under consideration. 

(d) Change in Control. A “Change in Control” means a transaction or circumstance in which any of the following

Treas. Reg. § 1. 409A-3(i)(5): 
 (1) the date that any person, or persons acting as a group, as described in Treas.
Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(5) (a “Person”), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or a corporation controlling the Company or owned directly or indirectly by the shareholders
of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), directly or indirectly, of securities
of the Company representing more than 40% of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (as defined above);

 (3) the date that a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the
Company is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company before the date of the appointment or election. 

(e) The existence of the Plan and the Stock Incentives granted pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the
Company to make or authorize any adjustment, reclassification, reorganization or other change in its capital or business structure, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities having preferences or priorities
as to the Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any sale or transfer of all or any part of its business or assets, or any other corporate act or proceeding. 

5.3 Cash Awards. The Committee may, at any time and in its discretion, grant to any holder of a Stock Incentive the right to receive,
at such times and in such amounts as determined by the Committee in its discretion, a cash amount which is intended to reimburse such person for all or a portion of the federal, state and local income taxes imposed upon such person as a consequence
of the receipt of the Stock Incentive or the exercise of rights thereunder. 
 5.4 Compliance with Code. All Incentive Stock Options
to be granted hereunder are intended to comply with Code Section 422, and all provisions of the Plan and all Incentive Stock Options granted hereunder must be construed in such manner as to effectuate that intent. 

5.5 Right to Terminate Employment or Service; No Shareholder Rights. Nothing in the Plan or in any Stock Incentive Agreement confers
upon any Participant the right to continue as an officer, employee, director, or consultant of the Company or any of its Affiliates or affect the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s employment or
services at any time. The holder of a Stock Option or a Stock Incentive Agreement has, as such, none of the rights of a stockholder. 
 5.6
Non-Alienation of Benefits. Other than as provided herein, no benefit under the Plan may be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge; and any attempt to do so shall be
void. No such benefit may, prior to receipt by the Participant, be in any manner liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of the Participant. 

5.7 Restrictions on Delivery and Sale of Shares; Legends. Each Stock Incentive is subject to the condition that if at any time the
Committee, in its discretion, shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares covered by such Stock Incentive upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law is necessary or desirable as a condition of or
in connection with the granting of such Stock Incentive or the purchase or delivery of shares thereunder, the delivery of any or all shares pursuant to such Stock Incentive may be withheld unless and until such listing, registration or qualification
shall have been effected. If a registration statement is not in effect under the Securities Act of 1933 or any applicable state securities laws with respect to the shares of Stock purchasable or otherwise deliverable under Stock Incentives then
outstanding, the Committee may require, as a condition of exercise of any Option or as a condition to any other delivery of Stock pursuant to a Stock Incentive, that the 

  
 14 

 
Participant or other recipient of a Stock Incentive represent, in writing, that the shares received pursuant to the Stock Incentive are being acquired for investment and not with a view to
distribution and agree that the shares will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement, unless the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel that such disposition is exempt from such requirement under the
Securities Act of 1933 and any applicable state securities laws. The Company may include on certificates representing shares delivered pursuant to a Stock Incentive such legends referring to the foregoing representations or restrictions or any other
applicable restrictions on resale as the Company, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate. 
 5.8 Listing and Legal Compliance. The
Committee may suspend the exercise or payment of any Stock Incentive so long as it determines that securities exchange listing or registration or qualification under any securities laws is required in connection therewith and has not been completed
on terms acceptable to the Committee. 
 5.9 Termination and Amendment of the Plan. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate
this Plan at any time; provided, however, an amendment that would have a material adverse effect on the rights of a Participant under an outstanding Stock Incentive is not valid with respect to such Stock Incentive without the Participant’s
consent, except as necessary for Stock Incentives to satisfy the conditions imposed under the Code; and provided, further, that the stockholders of the Company must approve, in general meeting: 

(a) 12 months before or after the date of adoption, any amendment that increases the aggregate number of shares of Stock that
may be issued under Incentive Stock Options or changes the employees (or class of employees) eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options; 

(b) before the effective date thereof, any amendment that increases the number of shares in the aggregate which may be issued
pursuant to Stock Incentives granted under the Plan or the maximum number of shares with respect to which any individual may receive options in any calendar year, or increases the period during which Stock Incentives may be granted or exercised; and

 (c) any amendment that is subject to approval of shareholders under the rules of the exchange or trading system on which
Stock becomes traded. 
 5.10 Incentive Stock Option Approval. Incentive Stock Options may be issued under this Plan for a period of
ten years after the effective date of the Plan, provided that the stockholders of the Company approve the adoption of the Plan within twelve (12) months prior to or after the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors of the Company. If
such approval is not obtained, any Incentive Stock Options granted hereunder will be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. 
 5.11
Choice of Law. The laws of the State of Tennessee shall govern the Plan, to the extent not preempted by federal law, without reference to the principles of conflict of laws. 

  
 15 

 5.12 Effective Date of Plan. The Plan shall be effective as of the date the Plan is or was
