 Exhibit 10.2 

ARRIS INTERNATIONAL PLC 

AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 

(As amended through January 4, 2016) 

1. PURPOSE. The purpose of the Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) of ARRIS International plc,
registered in England & Wales with company number 09551763, (the “Company”) is to furnish to eligible employees an incentive to advance the best interests of the Company by providing a method whereby they voluntarily may purchase
shares of Common Stock, 1 pence par value, of the Company (“Common Stock”) at a favorable price and upon favorable terms. The Plan includes two components: a component that is intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (the “423 Component”) and a component that is not intended to qualify under Section 423 of the Code (the “Non-423 Component”). It is intended for the 423 Component to
constitute an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423(b) of the Code. In addition, this Plan authorizes the grant of options under the Non-423 Component that does not qualify as an “employee stock
purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component. 

2. ELIGIBILITY. All employees of the Company and those of any present or future direct or indirect subsidiary (as defined in
Section 424(f) of the Code) of the Company and within the meaning of section 1159 of the Companies Act 2006 (a “Subsidiary”) (provided the Company authorizes such Subsidiary to participate in the Plan), except for employees whose
customary employment is less than 20 hours per week, shall be eligible to participate in the Plan; provided, however, no option shall be granted to an employee if such employee, immediately after the option is granted, owns stock (as defined by
Sections 423(b)(3) and 424(d) of the Code possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Subsidiary (whether or not the Subsidiary participates in the Plan). No option
shall be granted to any executive officer who is a highly compensated employee (within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries unless the committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of
Directors (the “Board”) of the Company which has been designated to administer the Plan shall otherwise provide. No option shall be granted to any employee where, in the judgment of the Committee, such grant would be unlawful or
impractical under the laws of any local or foreign jurisdiction, provided, however, that such decision not to grant an option would not otherwise violate Section 423 of the Code if such option is granted under the 423 Component. All employees
granted options under the 423 Component of the Plan shall have the same rights and privileges, subject to subparagraph 4(b) below. Any provisions of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, an employee who has received a hardship withdrawal from
the Company’s 401(k) plan, or the 401(k) plan of any designated subsidiary, shall be subject to restrictions on participation in the Plan on account of such hardship withdrawal to the fullest extent required by the Code. 

3. STOCK SUBJECT OF THE PLAN. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 10, the stock which may be sold pursuant to options under the Plan
shall not exceed in the aggregate 3,800,000 shares of the authorized Common Stock of the 

 
Company, including shares of Arris Group, Inc issued prior to January 4, 2016 (the “Shares”). The Shares may be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares reacquired by the Company and
held in its treasury. Options issued under the Plan will reduce the number of Shares available under the Plan by the number of Shares subject to the issued option. If unexercised options expire or terminate for any reason, in whole or in part, the
number of Shares subject to the unexercised portion of such options will be available again for issuance under the Plan. 
 4. GRANT OF
OPTIONS. 
  

	 	(a)	General statement; “date of grant”; “option period”; “date of exercise.” Following the effective date of the Plan and continuing while the Plan remains in force, the Company will
offer options under the Plan to all eligible employees to purchase Shares. These options shall be granted twice each year on dates to be determined by the Committee (each of which is hereinafter referred to as a “date of grant”). The term
of each option will be for six months (or such other period (not to exceed 12 months) as the Committee may specify) ending on the last day of the option period (hereinafter referred to as the “date of exercise”). The number of Shares
subject to each option shall be the quotient of the contributions that are authorized to be made by each participant in accordance with subparagraph (b) during the option period divided by 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the
date of grant, as defined by subparagraph 5(b), rounded down to the closest whole number. 

  

	 	(b)	 Election to participate: payroll deduction/contribution authorization. Except as provided in subparagraphs (f) and (g) or otherwise
required by applicable law, an eligible employee may participate in the Plan only by means of payroll deduction. Each eligible employee who elects to participate in the Plan shall deliver to the Company during the calendar month next preceding a
date of grant (by enrolling on line or by completing the appropriate election forms, in either case by the deadline imposed by the Committee) a written payroll deduction authorization in a form prepared by the Company whereby the employee gives
notice of the employee’s election to participate in the Plan as of the next following date of grant, and whereby the employee designates a stated amount to be deducted from the employee’s compensation on each payday during the option
period and paid into the Plan for the employee’s account. The stated amount which the employee may designate for payroll deduction may not be less than $2.00 each payday (although the Committee may select another minimum amount to be designated
for payroll deductions which minimum may not be greater than $5.00 per pay period). The Committee may authorize payroll deductions of less than the minimum per pay period or of less than the amount the employee may designate to be deducted if not
doing so would likely result in a refund to the employee at the end of the option period because the employee’s payroll deductions were in excess of the option price of the Shares the employee can purchase. The payroll deductions may not exceed
either of the following: (i) 10% (or such other percentage as the 

  
 2 

	 	
Committee may specify) of the amount of “eligible compensation”” (as defined in subparagraph (d) from which the deduction is made); or (ii) an amount which will result in
noncompliance with the $25,000 limitation stated in subparagraph (e). 

  

	 	(c)	Changes in payroll deduction authorization. The payroll deduction authorization referred to in subparagraph (b) may not be changed during the option period. 

 

	 	(d)	“Eligible compensation” defined. The term “eligible compensation” means regular base salary on the date of grant. “Eligible compensation” does not include management incentives and
bonuses, commissions, overtime, extended work-week premiums, or other special payments, fees, or allowances. 

  

	 	(e)	$25,000 limitation. No employee shall be granted an option under the Plan or under any other employee stock purchase plan of the Company or of any of its subsidiaries (within the meaning of Section 423(b)(8)
of the Code) which permits the employee’s rights to purchase Shares to first become exercisable at a rate which exceeds $25,000 in fair market value of Common Stock (determined at the time the option is granted) for each calendar year in which
any such option granted to such employee is outstanding at any time. 

  

	 	(f)	Leaves of absence. During leaves of absence approved by the Company and meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation l.421-7(h)(2), a participant may continue participation in the Plan by cash payments to the
Company on the participant’s normal paydays, instead of payroll deductions, if the participant is not paid compensation by the Company or a Subsidiary (or if amount of compensation is not sufficient to cover the contributions under the Plan)
during such leave. 

  

	 	(g)	Contributions by other means. If payroll deductions for purposes of the Plan are prohibited or otherwise problematic under applicable law (as determined by the Committee in its discretion), the Committee may
permit the participants to contribute to the Plan by such other means as determined by the Committee. Any reference to “payroll deductions” in this section (or in any other section of the Plan) shall similarly cover contributions by other
means made pursuant to this subparagraph (g). 

 5. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS. 

 

	 	(a)	General statement. Each eligible employee who is a participant in the Plan automatically and without any act on the employee’s part will be deemed to have exercised the employee’s option on each date of
exercise to the extent that the balance then in the employee’s account under the Plan is sufficient to purchase at the “option price” (as defined in subparagraph (b)) whole Shares subject to the employee’s option. Any balance
remaining in the employee’s account after payment of the purchase price of those whole Shares shall be refunded (without interest) to the employee promptly. 

  
 3 

	 	(b)	“Option price” defined. The option price per Share shall be a sum equal to 85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise or on the date of grant, whichever amount is lesser.
Fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise or, as the case may be, on the date of grant, shall be the per Share price of the last sale of such Common Stock prior to such date as reported by NASDAQ or, if listed on a United States
stock exchange, as reported in the composite transactions for the principal such exchange on which the Common Stock is traded. 

  

	 	(c)	Delivery of share certificates. As soon as reasonably practicable after each date of exercise, the Shares each participant purchases on such date of exercise shall be credited to an account in the
participant’s name with one or more brokers the Committee may designate. A participant will be issued a certificate for participant’s Shares upon request or, if so determined by the Committee, when the Plan is terminated. In the event the
Company is required to obtain from any commission or agency authority to credit any Shares or issue any certificates, the Company will make reasonable efforts to obtain such authority. If the Company is unable or determines it to be unreasonable to
obtain from any such commission or agency authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful crediting of such Shares or issuance of any such certificates, the Company shall be relieved from liability to any participant in the
Plan except to return to the optionee the amount of the balance in the optionee’s account. 

 6. WITHDRAWAL FROM THE
PLAN. 
  

	 	(a)	General statement. Any participant may withdraw in whole from the Plan at any time. A participant who wishes to withdraw from the Plan must deliver to the Company a notice of withdrawal in a form prepared by the
Company. The Company, promptly following the time when the notice of withdrawal is delivered, will refund to the participant (without interest) the amount of the balance in the participant’s account under the Plan; and thereupon, automatically
and without any further act on the participant’s part, the participant’s payroll deduction authorization, the participant’s interest in the Plan, and the participant’s option under the Plan shall terminate. 

 

	 	(b)	Eligibility following withdrawal. A participant who withdraws from the Plan shall be eligible to participate again in the Plan for the option period next following the option period during which the participant
withdrew. 

 7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. If the employment of a participant with the Company or a Subsidiary which
has been authorized to participate in the Plan terminates for any reason, the participant’s interest in the Plan automatically and without any act on the participant’s part shall terminate as of the date of the termination of the
participant’s employment. The Company promptly will refund to the participant 

  
 4 

 
(without interest) the amount of the balance in the participant’s account under the Plan, and thereupon the participant’s interest in the Plan and the participant’s option under
the Plan shall terminate. 
 8. RESTRICTION UPON ASSIGNMENT. An option granted under the Plan shall not be transferable otherwise
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during the optionee’s lifetime only by optionee. The Company will not recognize and shall be under no duty to recognize any assignment or purported assignment by an
optionee of an option or of any rights under an option. 
 9. NO RIGHTS OF STOCKHOLDER UNTIL CERTIFICATE ISSUED. With respect to
Shares subject to an option, an optionee shall not be deemed to be a stockholder and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder. An optionee shall have the rights and privileges of a stockholder when, but not until, following
the exercise of the option, the Shares have been credited to the employee’s account or a certificate has been issued to the employee. 

10. CHANGES IN STOCK ADJUSTMENTS. Whenever any change is made in the Shares subject to the Plan, by reason of stock dividend on such
Shares or by reason of subdivision, combinations, or reclassification of such Shares, appropriate action will be taken by the Committee to adjust accordingly the number of Shares subject to the Plan and the number and option price of Shares subject
to options outstanding under the Plan. 
 11. USE OF FUNDS; NO INTEREST PAID. All funds received or held by the Company under the
Plan will be included in the general funds of the Company free of any trust or other restriction, and may be used for any corporate purpose. No interest will be paid or credited to any participant under the Plan. 

12. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Board or the Committee may from time to time suspend, terminate, revise or amend the Plan in any respect
whatsoever except that, without the approval of stockholders of the Company, no such revision or amendment may increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan, reduce the exercise price below that provided in the Plan, or cause the Plan not to be
in conformance with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code with respect to the 423 Component. 
 Any reference to any Section or
provision of the Code shall include any successor provision thereto. 
 13. ADMINISTRATION BY COMMITTEE; RULES AND REGULATIONS;
COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which shall be composed of not less than two directors of the Company, none of whom shall be eligible to serve on the Committee unless such person is then a Non-Employee
Director within the meaning of the rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, if and as such rules are then in effect. Each member shall serve for a term commencing on a date
specified by the Board and continuing until such member dies or resigns or is removed from office by the Board. The Committee may, to the extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable U.S. Federal laws, delegate its authority
to administer the Plan to a sub-committee or officer. In its sole discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan. 

  
 5 

 The Committee shall have the power to make, amend and repeal rules and regulations for the
interpretation and administration of the Plan, which shall include the power to authorize Subsidiaries to participate in the Plan. In particular, the Committee may adopt rules or procedures, including sub-plans, relating to the operation and
administration of the Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures for jurisdictions outside the United States. The Committee shall have authority to interpret the Plan, with such interpretations to be conclusive and
binding on all persons and otherwise accorded the maximum deference permitted and shall take any other actions and make any other determinations or decisions that it deems necessary or appropriate in connection with the Plan or the administration or
interpretation thereof. Neither the Board, the Committee, any other committee appointed by the Board, nor any of their agents or designees shall be liable for any act, failure to act, or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan.

 To the extent any provision in the Plan is deemed to be in violation of local laws or regulations, the provision shall be deemed to be
modified in a manner that complies with applicable law, provided that such modification is in conformance with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code with respect to the 423 Component. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan shall continue to
be governed by U.S. law as provided in section 16 herein and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee under the Plan will be made subject to U.S. law. 

In the event that the option price of unissued Shares is less than the nominal value of a Share, the Committee shall capitalize from the
reserves of the Company a sum equal to the amount by which the nominal value of the Shares exceeds the option price per Share or may use such mechanism involving a third party as the Committee considers necessary. 

14. SEVERABILITY. If any particular provision of this Plan is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall not affect the
other provisions of the Plan, but the Plan shall be construed in all respects as if such invalid provision has been omitted. 
 15.
SECTION 409A. The Section 423 Component is exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code. The Non -423 Component is intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Code under the short-term deferral exception and any
ambiguities shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. In the case of a participant who would otherwise be subject to Section 409A of the Code, to the extent an option to purchase Shares or the payment, settlement or
deferral thereof is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the option to purchase Shares shall be granted, paid, exercised, settled or deferred in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code, including the final regulations and
other guidance issued with respect thereto, except as otherwise determined by the Board or the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no liability to a participant or any other party if the option to purchase Shares under
the Plan that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Board or the Committee with respect thereto. 

  
 6 

 16. GOVERNING LAW. The provisions of the Plan shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law rules. 
 17. EFFECTIVE DATE. The original
effective date of this Plan is May 21, 2009, the date it was approved by the stockholders of ARRIS Group, Inc. In 2013, the Plan was assumed by Arris Holdco, Inc. when a subsidiary of Arris Holdco, Inc. merged with and into Arris Group, Inc.
Arris Holdco, Inc. changed its name to Arris Group, Inc. On March 30, 2015 the Plan was amended and restated, following approval by the Committee. Effective January 4, 2016, the Company assumed the Plan when a subsidiary of the Company
merged with and into Arris Group, Inc. The Plan was amended and restated in connection with this final transaction.

 Exhibit 10.3 

ARRIS INTERNATIONAL PLC 

2011 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 

(As amended through January 4, 2016) 

1. PURPOSE AND EFFECTIVE DATE. ARRIS International plc, registered in England & Wales with company number 09551763 (the
“Company”) has assumed this 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the “Plan”) from Arris Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, to facilitate the retention and continued motivation of key employees and executive
directors and to align more closely their interests with those of the Company and its stockholders. This Plan was effective on May 25, 2011 (the “Effective Date”). No grants shall be made under this Plan subsequent to ten
(10) years after the Effective Date. This Plan will have no impact on the Company’s existing stock incentive plans or the awards outstanding thereunder except as provided in Section 7 of this Plan. (In 2011 the Plan was adopted by
Arris Group, Inc. In 2013, the Plan was assumed by Arris Holdco, Inc. when a subsidiary of Arris Holdco, Inc. merged with and into Arris Group, Inc. Arris Holdco changed its name to Arris Group, Inc. In 2016, the Company assumed the Plan when a
subsidiary of the Company merged with into Arris Group, Inc. The Plan was amended and restated in connection with this final transaction.) 

2. ADMINISTRATION. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors or such other
Board committee consisting solely of independent directors (as determined by the Board or a committee thereof) as the Board may designate (the “Committee”). The Committee has the authority and responsibility for the interpretation,
administration and application of the provisions of the Plan, and the Committee’s interpretations of the Plan, and all actions taken by it and determinations made by it, shall be binding on all persons. The Committee may authorize one or more
members of the Board, including the Chief Executive Officer if he is a member, to grant awards subject to such limitations as the Committee may impose. Under no event may such designee grant awards to a key employee or executive director who is
required to file reports under Section 16 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or is an “officer” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). No Board or Committee member shall
be liable for any determination, decision or action made in good faith with respect to the Plan. 
 3. SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN. A
total of 33,956,000 shares of Common Stock, or rights with respect to Common Stock of the Company, including shares of Arris Group, Inc. and its predecessor issued prior to January 4, 2016 (“Shares”), may be issued pursuant to the
Plan. The Shares may be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares reacquired by the Company and held in its treasury. In determining the number of Shares available for awards: 
  

	 	(a)	Grants of awards under the Plan will reduce the number of Shares available thereunder by the maximum number of Shares obtainable under such grants. 

 

	 	(b)	Awards of stock, stock units, restricted stock, performance shares and units, and dividend equivalent rights will reduce the number of shares that may be issued hereunder at the rate of 1.87 Shares per Share or interest
granted. 

  

	 	(c)	The aggregate number of Shares with respect to which incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed 5,000,000. 

 

	 	(d)	 If all or any portion of the Shares otherwise subject to an award under the Plan are not delivered or do not vest for any reason, including, but not
limited to, the cancellation, expiration or termination of any option, right or unit, the settlement of 

	 	
any award in cash, the forfeiture of any restricted stock or performance shares, or the repurchase of any Shares by the Company from a participant for the cost of the participant’s
investment in the Shares, such number of Shares shall be available again for issuance under the Plan. 

  

	 	(e)	The Company, in its discretion, may withhold or cancel shares for the payment of withholding and other taxes, and such Shares, along with shares and other awards repurchased by the Company from a person using proceeds
from the exercise of awards by that person, shall not be available for a future award, and the determination of the number of Shares issued in connection with stock-settled stock appreciation rights shall be based upon the number of Shares with
respect to which the rights were based and not just the number of Shares delivered upon settlement. 

  

	 	(f)	Shares issued in connection with awards that are assumed, converted or substituted pursuant to a merger or an acquisition shall not be counted against the Shares that may be issued under the Plan even though, at the
election of the Committee, they otherwise may be subject to the Plan. 

 The number of Shares covered by or specified in the Plan and the
number of Shares and the purchase price for Shares under any outstanding awards, may be adjusted proportionately by the Committee for any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares or any change in the value of the Shares resulting from a
subdivision or consolidation of Shares, reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, payment of stock dividends on Shares, any other increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares made without receipt of consideration by the Company, or the
payment of an extraordinary cash dividend. The Committee shall ensure that any adjustment which would have the effect of reducing the price of unissued Shares to less than the nominal value of a Share may only be made if and to the extent that the
Committee shall be authorised to capitalize from the reserves of the Company a sum equal to the amount by which the nominal value of the Shares exceeds the adjusted price per Share or, where required by any applicable law, using such mechanism
involving a third party as the Committee considers necessary. 
 4. ELIGIBILITY. All key employees and directors employed by the
Company and its subsidiaries within the meaning of section 1159 of the Companies Act 2006 are eligible to be selected to receive a grant under the Plan by the Committee. The Committee may condition eligibility under the Plan, and any grant or
exercise of an award under the Plan, on such conditions, limitations or restrictions as the Committee determines to be appropriate for any reason. No person may be granted in any period of two consecutive calendar years, awards covering more than
1,600,000 Shares. The maximum amount to be granted to any one person pursuant to awards in any calendar year, denominated in dollars, shall not exceed $8,000,000. 

5. AWARDS. The Committee may grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons in the form of stock options (including incentive stock
options within the meaning of section 422 of the Code), stock grants, stock units, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and units and dividend equivalent rights, and shall establish the number of Shares subject to each
such grant and the terms thereof, including any adjustments for reorganizations and dividends, subject to the following: 
  

	 	(a)	All awards granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by written documents in such form and containing such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall prescribe. 

  
 2 

	 	

	 	(b)	The exercise price of any option or stock appreciation right shall not be less than the fair market value of a corresponding number of Shares as of the date of grant, except options or stock appreciation rights being
granted to replace options or rights not initially granted by the Company or its predecessors may be granted with exercise prices that in the judgment of the Committee result in options or rights having comparable value to the options or rights
being replaced. 

  

	 	(c)	The maximum term on options and stock appreciation rights shall not exceed ten (10) years. 

  

	 	(d)	Options and stock appreciation rights shall vest over a minimum of three years (and shall vest no more quickly than ratably), and all other awards shall have a minimum vesting or holding period of three years,
provided that (i) awards that are issued in connection with mergers and acquisitions may have vesting and holding periods that are the same as any awards that they are replacing or otherwise as deemed appropriate by the Committee, and
(ii) a vesting or holding period may be reduced as a result of death, disability, retirement, a merger or sale, termination of employment, change in control or other extraordinary event. In the absence of an extraordinary event, the vesting and
holding restrictions applicable to an award shall not be reduced or otherwise waived. 

  

	 	(e)	Awards granted under this Plan shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated or otherwise transferred by the grantee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution to the extent permitted in the
award itself. 

  

	 	(f)	No option may be repriced by amendment, substitution or cancellation and regrant unless authorized by the Company’s stockholders. Adjustments pursuant to Section 3 above shall not be considered repricing.

  

	 	(g)	When issuing performance shares or units performance criteria may include: revenue; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA); cash earnings (earnings before amortization of intangibles);
operating income; pre- or after-tax income; earnings per share, net cash flow; net cash flow per share; net earnings; return on equity; return on total capital; return on sales, return on net assets employed, return on assets; economic value added
(or an equivalent metric); share price performance; total shareholder return; improvement in or attainment of expense levels; operating and other margins; and improvement in or attainment of working capital levels. Performance criteria may be
related to a specific customer or group of customers or geographic region. Performance criteria may be measured solely on a corporate, subsidiary or division basis, or a combination thereof. Performance criteria may reflect absolute entity
performance or a relative comparison of entity performance to the performance of a peer group of entities or other external measure of the selected performance criteria. Profit, earnings and revenues used for any performance goal measurement may
exclude any extraordinary or nonrecurring items and may be adjusted to reflect changes in accounting principles. 

  

	 	(h)	Awards may be settled in cash, shares or deferred delivery, as authorized by the Committee. 

  

	 	(i)	Shares available under the Plan may be used as form of payment for compensation, grants or rights earned or due under other Company plans or arrangements. 

  
 3 

 5A. LIMITATIONS ON AWARDS. Notwithstanding the other provisions of the Plan: 

 

	 	(a)	Where shares are to be issued direct to a participant pursuant to an option or stock appreciation right, the exercise price shall not be less than the aggregate nominal value of such Shares. 

 

	 	(b)	Where awards are made within the time period contemplated by section 162(m) of the Code, at the election of the Committee the commencement of the vesting or holding period may relate back to the beginning of the fiscal
year. 

  

	 	(c)	Shares shall not be issued under the Plan directly to participants for less than the nominal value of a Share. Where Shares are to be issued and no amount is to be paid by a participant, where required by any applicable
law, this may be done using such mechanism involving a third party as the Committee considers necessary or by the Company paying (or procuring payment of) a bonus to the participant in respect of the nominal value of each share and, with the
participant’s agreement, using such amount to pay up nominal value or by capitalizing reserves in accordance with the articles of association. 

  

	 	(d)	Payment for Shares acquired pursuant to an Option shall be made in full upon exercise of the Option in a manner approved by the Committee, which may include any of the following payment methods: (1) in immediately
available funds in United States dollars (if appropriate, at such exchange rate as may be determined by the Committee), or by check or (2) by any other means approved by the Committee. 

6. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN. The Board of Directors or the Committee may from time to time suspend, terminate, revise or amend the Plan or
the terms of any grant in any respect whatsoever, provided that, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, no such revision or amendment may increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan, change the provisions of
Section 5 above, or expand those eligible for grants under the Plan. 
 7. PRIOR PLANS. As of the Effective Date no further
awards shall be made under any of the Company’s prior stock incentive plans. 
 8. RECOUPMENT. Awards under the Plan shall be
subject to any recoupment or clawback policy of the Company on the date of award as well as any applicable law or regulation, including a stock exchange rule, providing for recoupment or clawback. 

9. GENERAL. The laws of the State of Delaware shall apply to the Plan. Nothing herein shall restrict the Board from exercising the
authority granted hereunder to the Committee or otherwise from exercising its fiduciary duties.
