 Exhibit 4.2 

MONTAGE TECHNOLOGY GROUP LIMITED 

2013 PERFORMANCE INCENTIVE PLAN 
 1.
PURPOSE OF PLAN 
 The purpose of this Montage Technology Group Limited 2013 Performance Incentive Plan (this “Plan”) of
Montage Technology Group Limited, an exempted company organized under the Companies Law of the Cayman Islands, and its successors (the “Company”), is to promote the success of the Company and to increase shareholder value by
providing an additional means through the grant of awards to attract, motivate, retain and reward selected employees and other eligible persons. 
 2.
ELIGIBILITY 
 The Administrator (as such term is defined in Section 3.1) may grant awards under this Plan only to those persons
that the Administrator determines to be Eligible Persons. An “Eligible Person” is any person who is either: (a) an officer (whether or not a director) or employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; (b) a director
of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries; or (c) an individual consultant or advisor who renders or has rendered bona fide services (other than services in connection with the offering or sale of securities of the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries in a capital-raising transaction or as a market maker or promoter of securities of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries) to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and who is selected to participate in this Plan by the Administrator;
provided, however, that a person who is otherwise an Eligible Person under clause (c) above may participate in this Plan only if such participation would not adversely affect either the Company’s eligibility to use Form S-8 to register
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the offering and sale of shares issuable under this Plan by the Company or the Company’s compliance with any applicable laws. An Eligible Person who has been
granted an award (a “participant”) may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional awards if the Administrator shall so determine. As used herein, “Subsidiary” means any corporation or other entity a majority of
whose outstanding voting shares or voting power is beneficially owned directly or indirectly by the Company; and “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 

3. PLAN ADMINISTRATION 
  

	 	3.1	 The Administrator. This Plan shall be administered by and all awards under this Plan shall be authorized by the Administrator.
The “Administrator” means the Board or one or more committees appointed by the Board or another committee (within its delegated authority) to administer all or certain aspects of this Plan. Any such committee shall be comprised
solely of one or more directors or such number of directors as may be required under applicable law. A committee may delegate some or all of its authority to another committee so constituted. The Board or a committee comprised solely of directors
may also delegate, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to one or more officers of the Company, its powers under this Plan (a) to designate officers and employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who will receive grants of awards under
this Plan, and (b) to determine the number of shares subject to, and the other terms and conditions of, 

  
 1 

	 	
such awards, in each case within the limits established by the Board or another committee within its delegated authority. The Board may delegate different levels of authority to different
committees with administrative and grant authority under this Plan. Unless otherwise provided in the organizing documents of the Company or applicable charter of any Administrator: (a) a majority of the members of the acting Administrator shall
constitute a quorum, and (b) the vote of a majority of the members present assuming the presence of a quorum or the unanimous written consent of the members of the Administrator shall constitute action by the acting Administrator.

 With respect to awards intended to satisfy the requirements for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), this Plan shall be administered by a committee consisting solely of two or more outside directors (as this requirement is applied under Section 162(m) of the Code);
provided, however, that the failure to satisfy such requirement shall not affect the validity of the action of any committee otherwise duly authorized and acting in the matter. Award grants, and transactions in or involving awards, intended to be
exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), must be duly and timely authorized by the Board or a committee consisting solely of two or more non-employee directors (as this
requirement is applied under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act). To the extent required by any applicable listing agency, this Plan shall be administered by a committee composed entirely of independent directors (within the meaning of
the applicable listing agency). 
  

	 	3.2	Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Administrator is authorized and empowered to do all things necessary or desirable in connection with the
authorization of awards and the administration of this Plan (in the case of a committee or delegation to one or more officers, within the authority delegated to that committee or person(s)), including, without limitation, the authority to:

  

	 	(a)	determine eligibility and, from among those persons determined to be eligible, the particular Eligible Persons who will receive an award under this Plan; 

 

	 	(b)	grant awards to Eligible Persons, determine the price at which securities will be offered or awarded and the number of securities to be offered or awarded to any of such persons, determine the other specific terms and
conditions of such awards consistent with the express limits of this Plan, establish the installments (if any) in which such awards shall become exercisable or shall vest (which may include, without limitation, performance and/or time-based
schedules), or determine that no delayed exercisability or vesting is required, establish any applicable performance targets, and establish the events of termination or reversion of such awards; 

  
 2 

	 	(c)	approve the forms of award agreements (which need not be identical either as to type of award or among participants); 

  

	 	(d)	construe and interpret this Plan and any agreements defining the rights and obligations of the Company, its Subsidiaries, and participants under this Plan, further define the terms used in this Plan, and prescribe,
amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of this Plan or the awards granted under this Plan; 

  

	 	(e)	cancel, modify, or waive the Company’s rights with respect to, or modify, discontinue, suspend, or terminate any or all outstanding awards, subject to any required consent under Section 8.6.5;

  

	 	(f)	accelerate or extend the vesting or exercisability or extend the term of any or all such outstanding awards (in the case of options or share appreciation rights, within the maximum ten-year term of such awards) in such
circumstances as the Administrator may deem appropriate (including, without limitation, in connection with a termination of employment or services or other events of a personal nature) subject to any required consent under Section 8.6.5;

  

	 	(g)	adjust the number of Ordinary Shares subject to any award, adjust the price of any or all outstanding awards or otherwise change previously imposed terms and conditions, in such circumstances as the Administrator may
deem appropriate, in each case subject to Sections 4 and 8.6; 

  

	 	(h)	determine the date of grant of an award, which may be a designated date after but not before the date of the Administrator’s action (unless otherwise designated by the Administrator, the date of grant of an award
shall be the date upon which the Administrator took the action granting an award); 

  

	 	(i)	determine whether, and the extent to which, adjustments are required pursuant to Section 7 hereof and authorize the termination, conversion, substitution or succession of awards upon the occurrence of an event of
the type described in Section 7; 

  

	 	(j)	acquire or settle (subject to Sections 7 and 8.6) rights under awards in cash, shares of equivalent value, or other consideration; 

  

	 	(k)	determine the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares or awards under this Plan from time to time and/or the manner in which such value will be determined; and 

 

	 	(l)	implement any procedures, steps or additional or different requirements as may be necessary to comply with any laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) that may be applicable to this
Plan, any Option or any related documents, including, but not limited to, foreign exchange laws, tax laws and securities laws of the PRC. 

  
 3 

	 	3.3	Binding Determinations. Any action taken by, or inaction of, the Company, any Subsidiary, or the Administrator relating or pursuant to this Plan and within its authority hereunder or under
applicable law shall be within the absolute discretion of that entity or body and shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons. Neither the Board nor any Board committee, nor any member thereof or person acting at the direction thereof, shall be
liable for any act, omission, interpretation, construction or determination made in good faith in connection with this Plan (or any award made under this Plan), and all such persons shall be entitled to indemnification and reimbursement by the
Company in respect of any claim, loss, damage or expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) arising or resulting therefrom to the fullest extent permitted by law and/or under any directors and officers liability insurance coverage
that may be in effect from time to time. 

  

	 	3.4	Reliance on Experts. In making any determination or in taking or not taking any action under this Plan, the Administrator may obtain and may rely upon the advice of experts, including employees and
professional advisors to the Company. No director, officer or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable for any such action or determination taken or made or omitted in good faith. 

 

	 	3.5	Delegation. The Administrator may delegate ministerial, non-discretionary functions to individuals who are officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or to third parties.

  

	 	3.6	Option and SAR Repricing. Subject to Section 4 and Section 8.6.5, the Administrator, from time to time and in its sole discretion, may provide for (1) the amendment of any outstanding
share option or SAR to reduce the exercise price or base price of the award, (2) the cancellation, exchange, or surrender of an outstanding share option or SAR in exchange for cash or other awards (for the purpose of repricing the award or
otherwise), or (3) the cancellation, exchange, or surrender of an outstanding share option or SAR in exchange for an option or SAR with an exercise or base price that is less than the exercise or base price of the original award. For avoidance
of doubt, the Administrator may take any or all of the foregoing actions under this Section 3.6 without shareholder approval. 

 4.
ORDINARY SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN; SHARE LIMITS 
  

	 	4.1	Shares Available. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.1, the shares that may be delivered under this Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares and
any Ordinary Shares held as treasury shares. For purposes of this Plan, “Ordinary Shares” shall mean the ordinary shares of the Company and such other securities or property as may become the subject of awards under this Plan, or
may become subject to such awards, pursuant to an adjustment made under Section 7.1. 

  

	 	4.2	Share Limits. The maximum number of Ordinary Shares that may be delivered pursuant to awards granted to Eligible Persons under this Plan (the “Share Limit”) is equal to 4,000,000
Ordinary Shares. 

  
 4 

 In addition, the Share Limit shall automatically increase on January 1 of each year during
the term of this Plan, commencing with January 1, 2014, by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) four percent (4%) of the total number of Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding on December 31 of the immediately preceding
calendar year, (ii) 2,500,000 Ordinary Shares or (iii) such number of Ordinary Shares as may be established by the Board. 
 The
following limits also apply with respect to awards granted under this Plan: 
  

	 	(a)	The maximum number of Ordinary Shares that may be delivered pursuant to options qualified as incentive stock options granted under this Plan is equal to the Share Limit as in effect from time to time. 

 

	 	(b)	The maximum number of Ordinary Shares subject to those options and share appreciation rights that are granted during any calendar year to any individual under this Plan is 1,000,000 shares. 

Each of the foregoing numerical limits is subject to adjustment as contemplated by Section 4.3, Section 7.1, and Section 8.10.

  

	 	4.3	Awards Settled in Cash, Reissue of Awards and Shares. Shares that are subject to or underlie awards granted under this Plan which expire or for any reason are cancelled or terminated, are forfeited,
fail to vest, or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under this Plan shall again be available for subsequent awards under this Plan. Shares that are exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company as full or partial payment in
connection with any award under this Plan, as well as any shares exchanged by a participant or withheld by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any award, shall be available for subsequent
awards under this Plan. To the extent that an award granted under this Plan is settled in cash or a form other than Ordinary Shares, the shares that would have been delivered had there been no such cash or other settlement shall not be counted
against the shares available for issuance under this Plan. In the event that Ordinary Shares are delivered in respect of a dividend equivalent right granted under this Plan, the number of shares delivered with respect to the award shall be counted
against the share limits of this Plan (including, for purposes of clarity, the limits of Section 4.2 of this Plan). Refer to Section 8.10 for application of the foregoing share limits with respect to assumed awards. 

 

	 	4.4	Reservation of Shares; No Fractional Shares; Minimum Issue. The Company shall at all times reserve a number of Ordinary Shares sufficient to cover the Company’s obligations and contingent
obligations to deliver shares with respect to awards then outstanding under this Plan (exclusive of any dividend equivalent obligations to the extent the Company has the right to settle such rights in cash). No fractional shares shall be delivered
under this Plan. The Administrator may pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares in settlements of awards under this Plan. The Administrator may from time to time impose a limit (of not greater than 100 shares) on the minimum number of shares that
may be purchased or exercised as to awards granted under this Plan unless (as to any particular award) the total number purchased or exercised is the total number at the time available for purchase or exercise under the award. 

  
 5 

 5. AWARDS 
  

	 	5.1	Type and Form of Awards. The Administrator shall determine the type or types of award(s) to be made to each selected Eligible Person. Awards may be granted singly, in combination or in tandem.
Awards also may be made in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of, as alternatives to, or as the payment form for grants or rights under any other employee or compensation plan of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. The types of awards
that may be granted under this Plan are: 

 5.1.1 Share Options. A share option is the grant
of a right to purchase a specified number of Ordinary Shares during a specified period as determined by the Administrator. An option may be intended as an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code (an
“ISO”) or a nonqualified stock option (an option not intended to be an ISO). The award agreement for an option will indicate if the option is intended as an ISO; otherwise it will be deemed to be a
nonqualified stock option. The maximum term of each option (ISO or nonqualified) shall be ten (10) years. The per share exercise price for each option shall be determined by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable award agreement.
When an option is exercised, the exercise price for the shares to be purchased shall be paid in full in cash or such other method permitted by the Administrator consistent with Section 5.4.  

5.1.2 Additional Rules Applicable to ISOs. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value (determined at
the time of grant of the applicable option) of shares with respect to which ISOs first become exercisable by a participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, taking into account both Ordinary Shares subject to ISOs under this Plan and shares
subject to ISOs under all other plans of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (or any parent or predecessor corporation to the extent required by and within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder),
such options shall be treated as nonqualified stock options. In reducing the number of options treated as ISOs to meet the $100,000 limit, the most recently granted options shall be reduced first. To the extent a reduction of simultaneously granted
options is necessary to meet the $100,000 limit, the Administrator may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by law, designate which Ordinary Shares are to be treated as shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO. ISOs may only be
granted to employees of the Company or one of its subsidiaries (for this purpose, the term “subsidiary” is used as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code, which generally requires an unbroken chain of ownership of at least 50% of the
total combined voting power of all classes of shares of each subsidiary in the chain beginning with the Company and ending with the subsidiary in question). There shall be imposed in any award agreement relating to ISOs such other terms and
conditions as from time to time are required in order that the option be an “incentive stock option” as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code. The per share exercise price for each ISO shall be not less than 100% of the fair
market value of an Ordinary Share on the  

  
 6 

 
date of grant of the option. Furthermore, no ISO may be granted to any person who, at the time the option is granted, owns (or is deemed to own under Section 424(d) of the Code) outstanding
Ordinary Shares possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company, unless the exercise price of such option is at least 110% of the fair market value of the shares subject to the option and such
option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date such option is granted. 
 5.1.3
Share Appreciation Rights. A share appreciation right or “SAR” is a right to receive a payment, in cash and/or Ordinary Shares, equal to the excess of the fair market value of a
specified number of Ordinary Shares on the date the SAR is exercised over the “base price” of the award, which base price shall be determined by the Administrator and set forth in the applicable award
agreement. The maximum term of a SAR shall be ten (10) years. 
 5.1.4 Other Awards. The
other types of awards that may be granted under this Plan include: (a) share bonuses, restricted shares, performance shares, share units, phantom shares, dividend equivalents, or similar rights to purchase or acquire shares, whether at a fixed
or variable price or ratio related to the Ordinary Shares, upon the passage of time, the occurrence of one or more events, or the satisfaction of performance criteria or other conditions, or any combination thereof; (b) any similar securities
with a value derived from the value of or related to the Ordinary Shares and/or returns thereon; or (c) cash awards.  
  

	 	5.2	Award Agreements. Each award shall be evidenced by either (1) a written award agreement in a form approved by the Administrator and executed by the Company by an officer duly authorized to act
on its behalf, or (2) an electronic notice of award grant in a form approved by the Administrator and recorded by the Company (or its designee) in an electronic recordkeeping system used for the purpose of tracking award grants under this Plan
generally (in each case, an “award agreement”), as the Administrator may provide and, in each case and if required by the Administrator, executed or otherwise electronically accepted by the recipient of the award in such form and manner as
the Administrator may require. The Administrator may authorize any officer of the Company (other than the particular award recipient) to execute any or all award agreements on behalf of the Company. The award agreement shall set forth the material
terms and conditions of the award as established by the Administrator consistent with the express limitations of this Plan. 

  

	 	5.3	Deferrals and Settlements. Payment of awards may be in the form of cash, Ordinary Shares, other awards or combinations thereof as the Administrator shall determine, and with such restrictions as it
may impose. The Administrator may also require or permit participants to elect to defer the issuance of shares or the settlement of awards in cash under such rules and procedures as it may establish under this Plan. The Administrator may also
provide that deferred settlements include the payment or crediting of interest or other earnings on the deferral amounts, or the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents where the deferred amounts are denominated in shares. 

  
 7 

	 	5.4	Consideration for Ordinary Shares or Awards. The purchase price for any award granted under this Plan or the Ordinary Shares to be delivered pursuant to an award, as applicable, may be paid by means
of any lawful consideration as determined by the Administrator, including, without limitation, one or a combination of the following methods: 

  

	 	•	 	services rendered by the recipient of such award; 

  

	 	•	 	cash, check payable to the order of the Company, or electronic funds transfer; 

  

	 	•	 	notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator; 

  

	 	•	 	the delivery of previously owned Ordinary Shares; 

  

	 	•	 	by a reduction in the number of shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the award; or 

  

	 	•	 	subject to such procedures as the Administrator may adopt, pursuant to a “cashless exercise” with a third party who provides financing for the purposes of (or who otherwise facilitates) the purchase or
exercise of awards. 

 In no event shall any shares newly-issued by the Company be issued for less than the minimum lawful
consideration for such shares or for consideration other than consideration permitted by applicable law. Ordinary Shares used to satisfy the exercise price of an option shall be valued at their fair market value on the date of exercise. The Company
will not be obligated to deliver any shares unless and until it receives full payment of the exercise or purchase price therefor and any related withholding obligations under Section 8.5 and any other conditions to exercise or purchase have
been satisfied. Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, the Administrator may at any time eliminate or limit a participant’s ability to pay the purchase or exercise price of any award or shares by any method other
than cash payment to the Company. The Administrator may take all actions necessary to alter the method of Option exercise and the exchange and transmittal of proceeds with respect to participants resident in the PRC not having permanent residence in
a country other than the PRC in order to comply with applicable PRC laws and regulations, including, without limitation, PRC foreign exchange, securities and tax laws and regulations. 

 

	 	5.5	Definition of Fair Market Value. For purposes of this Plan, if the Ordinary Shares are listed and actively traded on an internationally recognized securities exchange (the
“Exchange”), then unless otherwise determined or provided by the Administrator in the circumstances, “fair market value” shall mean the closing price (in regular trading) for an Ordinary Share as reported on the Exchange
on which the Ordinary Shares are listed for the date in question or, if no sales of Ordinary Shares were reported on the Exchange on that date, the closing price for an Ordinary Share as reported by the Exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are
listed for the next preceding day on which sales of Ordinary Shares were reported. The Administrator may, however, provide with respect to one or more Awards 

  
 8 

	 	
that the fair market value shall equal the closing price (in regular trading) for an Ordinary Share as reported by the Exchange on the last day preceding the date in question or the average of
high and low trading prices of an Ordinary Share as reported by the Exchange for the date in question or the most recent trading day. If the Ordinary Shares are no longer listed or actively traded on the Exchange as of the applicable date, the fair
market value of the Ordinary Shares shall be the value as reasonably determined by the Administrator for purposes of the award in the circumstances. The Administrator also may adopt a different methodology for determining fair market value with
respect to one or more awards if a different methodology is necessary or advisable to secure any intended favorable tax, legal or other treatment for the particular award(s) (for example, and without limitation, the Administrator may provide that
fair market value for purposes of one or more awards will be based on an average of closing prices (or the average of high and low daily trading prices) for a specified period preceding the relevant date). 

 

	 	5.6	Transfer Restrictions. 

 5.6.1 Limitations on
Exercise and Transfer. Unless otherwise expressly provided in (or pursuant to) this Section 5.6 or required by applicable law: (a) all awards are non-transferable and shall not be subject in any manner to sale, transfer,
anticipation, alienation, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge; (b) awards shall be exercised only by the participant; and (c) amounts payable or shares issuable pursuant to any award shall be delivered only to (or for the account of)
the participant. 
 5.6.2 Exceptions. The Administrator may permit awards to be exercised by and paid to, or otherwise
transferred to, other persons or entities pursuant to such conditions and procedures, including limitations on subsequent transfers, as the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, establish in writing. Any permitted transfer shall be subject to
compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and shall not be for value (other than nominal consideration, settlement of marital property rights, or for interests in an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are held
by the Eligible Person or by the Eligible Person’s family members). 
 5.6.3 Further Exceptions to Limits on
Transfer. The exercise and transfer restrictions in Section 5.6.1 shall not apply to: 
  

	 	(a)	transfers to the Company (for example, in connection with the expiration or termination of the award), 

  

	 	(b)	the designation of a beneficiary to receive benefits in the event of the participant’s death or, if the participant has died, transfers to or exercise by the participant’s beneficiary, or, in the absence of a
validly designated beneficiary, transfers by will or the laws of descent and distribution, 

  

	 	(c)	subject to any applicable limitations on ISOs, transfers to a family member (or former family member) pursuant to a domestic relations order if approved or ratified by the Administrator, 

  
 9 

	 	(d)	if the participant has suffered a disability, permitted transfers or exercises on behalf of the participant by his or her legal representative, or 

 

	 	(e)	the authorization by the Administrator of “cashless exercise” procedures with third parties who provide financing for the purpose of (or who otherwise facilitate) the exercise of awards consistent with
applicable laws and the express authorization of the Administrator. 

  

	 	5.7	International Awards. One or more awards may be granted to Eligible Persons who provide services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries outside of the United States. Any awards granted to such
persons may be granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of any applicable sub-plans, if any, appended to this Plan and approved by the Administrator. 

6. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE ON AWARDS 
  

	 	6.1	General. The Administrator shall establish the effect of a termination of employment or service on the rights and benefits under each award under this Plan and in so doing may make distinctions
based upon, inter alia, the cause of termination and type of award. If the participant is not an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and provides other services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, the Administrator shall be the
sole judge for purposes of this Plan (unless a contract or the award otherwise provides) of whether the participant continues to render services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and the date, if any, upon which such services shall be deemed
to have terminated. 

  

	 	6.2	Events Not Deemed Terminations of Service. Unless the express policy of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or the Administrator, otherwise provides, the employment relationship shall not be
considered terminated in the case of (a) sick leave, (b) military leave, or (c) any other leave of absence authorized by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or the Administrator; provided that, unless reemployment upon the
expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or law or the Administrator otherwise provides, such leave is for a period of not more than three months. In the case of any employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries on an approved leave
of absence, continued vesting of the award while on leave from the employ of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may be suspended until the employee returns to service, unless the Administrator otherwise provides or applicable law otherwise
requires. In no event shall an award be exercised after the expiration of the term set forth in the applicable award agreement. 

  

	 	6.3	Effect of Change of Subsidiary Status. For purposes of this Plan and any award, if an entity ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company a termination of employment or service shall be deemed to have
occurred with respect to each Eligible Person in respect of such Subsidiary who does not continue as an Eligible Person in respect of the Company or another Subsidiary that continues as such after giving effect to the transaction or other event
giving rise to the change in status unless the Subsidiary that is sold, spun-off or otherwise divested (or its successor or a direct or indirect parent of such Subsidiary or successor) assumes the Eligible Person’s award(s) in connection with
such transaction. 

  
 10 

 7. ADJUSTMENTS; ACCELERATION 
  

	 	7.1	Adjustments. Subject to Section 7.2, upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately prior to): any reclassification, recapitalization, share split (including a share split
in the form of a share dividend) or reverse share split; any merger, combination, consolidation, or other reorganization; any spin-off, split-up, or similar extraordinary dividend distribution in respect of the Ordinary Shares; or any exchange of
Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Company, or any similar, unusual or extraordinary corporate transaction in respect of the Ordinary Shares; then the Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust (1) the number and type of
Ordinary Shares (or other securities) that thereafter may be made the subject of awards (including the specific share limits, maximums and numbers of shares set forth elsewhere in this Plan), (2) the number, amount and type of Ordinary Shares
(or other securities or property) subject to any outstanding awards, (3) the grant, purchase, or exercise price (which term includes the base price of any SAR or similar right) of any outstanding awards, and/or (4) the securities, cash or
other property deliverable upon exercise or payment of any outstanding awards, in each case to the extent necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this Plan and the then-outstanding awards. 

Unless otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, upon (or, as may be necessary to effect the adjustment, immediately
prior to) any event or transaction described in the preceding paragraph or a sale of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company as an entirety, the Administrator shall equitably and proportionately adjust the performance
standards applicable to any then-outstanding performance-based awards to the extent necessary to preserve (but not increase) the level of incentives intended by this Plan and the then-outstanding performance-based awards. 

It is intended that, if possible, any adjustments contemplated by the preceding two paragraphs be made in a manner that satisfies applicable
legal, tax (including, without limitation and as applicable in the circumstances, Section 424 of the Code, Section 409A of the Code and Section 162(m) of the Code) and accounting (so as to not trigger any charge to earnings with
respect to such adjustment) requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of Section 3.3, any good faith determination by the
Administrator as to whether an adjustment is required in the circumstances pursuant to this Section 7.1, and the extent and nature of any such adjustment, shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. 

 

	 	7.2	Corporate Transactions—Assumption and Termination of Awards. Upon the occurrence of any of the following: any merger, combination, consolidation, or other reorganization; any exchange of
Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Company; a sale of all or substantially all the business, shares or assets of the 

  
 11 

	 	
Company; a dissolution of the Company; or any other event in which the Company does not survive (or does not survive as a public company in respect of its Ordinary Shares); then the Administrator
may make provision for a cash payment in settlement of, or for the termination, assumption, substitution or exchange of any or all outstanding share-based awards or the cash, securities or property deliverable to the holder of any or all outstanding
share-based awards, based upon, to the extent relevant under the circumstances, the distribution or consideration payable to holders of the Ordinary Shares upon or in respect of such event. Upon the occurrence of any event described in the preceding
sentence, then, unless the Administrator has made a provision for the substitution, assumption, exchange or other continuation or settlement of the award or (unless the Administrator has provided for the termination of the award) the award would
otherwise continue in accordance with its terms in the circumstances: (1) unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, each then-outstanding option and SAR shall become fully vested, all restricted shares then outstanding shall
fully vest free of restrictions, and each other award granted under this Plan that is then outstanding shall become payable to the holder of such award; and (2) each award shall terminate upon the related event; provided that the holder of an
option or SAR shall be given reasonable advance notice of the impending termination and a reasonable opportunity to exercise his or her outstanding vested options and SARs (after giving effect to any accelerated vesting required in the
circumstances) in accordance with their terms before the termination of such awards (except that in no case shall more than ten days’ notice of the impending termination be required and any acceleration of vesting and any exercise of any
portion of an award that is so accelerated may be made contingent upon the actual occurrence of the event). 

 Without limiting
the preceding paragraph, in connection with any event referred to in the preceding paragraph or any change in control event defined in any applicable award agreement, the Administrator may, in its discretion, provide for the accelerated vesting of
any award or awards as and to the extent determined by the Administrator in the circumstances. 
 The Administrator may adopt such valuation
methodologies for outstanding awards as it deems reasonable in the event of a cash or property settlement and, in the case of options, SARs or similar rights, but without limitation on other methodologies, may base such settlement solely upon the
excess if any of the per share amount payable upon or in respect of such event over the exercise or base price of the award. 
 In any of the
events referred to in this Section 7.2, the Administrator may take such action contemplated by this Section 7.2 prior to such event (as opposed to on the occurrence of such event) to the extent that the Administrator deems the action
necessary to permit the participant to realize the benefits intended to be conveyed with respect to the underlying shares. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator may deem an acceleration to occur immediately prior to the
applicable event and, in such circumstances, will reinstate the original terms of the award if an event giving rise to an acceleration does not occur. 

  
 12 

 Without limiting the generality of Section 3.3, any good faith determination by the
Administrator pursuant to its authority under this Section 7.2 shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. 
  

	 	7.3	Other Acceleration Rules. The Administrator may override the provisions of Section 7.2 by express provision in the award agreement and may accord any Eligible Person a right to refuse any
acceleration, whether pursuant to the award agreement or otherwise, in such circumstances as the Administrator may approve. The portion of any ISO accelerated in connection with an event referred to in Section 7.2 (or such other circumstances
as may trigger accelerated vesting of the award) shall remain exercisable as an ISO only to the extent the applicable $100,000 limitation on ISOs is not exceeded. To the extent exceeded, the accelerated portion of the option shall be exercisable as
a nonqualified stock option under the Code. 

 8. OTHER PROVISIONS 

 

	 	8.1	Compliance with Laws. This Plan, the granting and vesting of awards under this Plan, the offer, issuance and delivery of Ordinary Shares, and/or the payment of money under this Plan or under awards
are subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal securities law and federal margin requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or
governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. The person acquiring any securities under this Plan will, if requested by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, provide
such assurances and representations to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as the Administrator may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal and accounting requirements. 

 

	 	8.2	No Rights to Award. No person shall have any claim or rights to be granted an award (or additional awards, as the case may be) under this Plan, subject to any express contractual rights (set forth
in a document other than this Plan) to the contrary. 

  

	 	8.3	No Employment/Service Contract. Nothing contained in this Plan (or in any other documents under this Plan or in any award) shall confer upon any Eligible Person or other participant any right to
continue in the employ or other service of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, constitute any contract or agreement of employment or other service or affect an employee’s status as an employee at will, nor shall interfere in any way with
the right of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries to change a person’s compensation or other benefits, or to terminate his or her employment or other service, with or without cause. Nothing in this Section 8.3, however, is intended to
adversely affect any express independent right of such person under a separate employment or service contract other than an award agreement. 

  
 13 

	 	8.4	Plan Not Funded. Awards payable under this Plan shall be payable in shares or from the general assets of the Company, and no special or separate reserve, fund or deposit shall be made to assure
payment of such awards. No participant, beneficiary or other person shall have any right, title or interest in any fund or in any specific asset (including Ordinary Shares, except as expressly otherwise provided) of the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries by reason of any award hereunder. Neither the provisions of this Plan (or of any related documents), nor the creation or adoption of this Plan, nor any action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create, or be construed
to create, a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or one of its Subsidiaries and any participant, beneficiary or other person. To the extent that a participant, beneficiary or other person acquires a right to receive
payment pursuant to any award hereunder, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

  

	 	8.5	Tax Withholding. Upon any exercise, vesting, or payment of any award or upon the disposition of Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO prior to satisfaction of the holding
period requirements of Section 422 of the Code, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries shall have the right at its option to: 

  

	 	(a)	require the participant (or the participant’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) to pay or provide for payment of at least the minimum amount of any taxes which the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such award event or payment; or 

  

	 	(b)	deduct from any amount otherwise payable in cash to the participant (or the participant’s personal representative or beneficiary, as the case may be) the minimum amount of any taxes which the Company or one of its
Subsidiaries may be required to withhold with respect to such cash payment. 

 In any case where a tax is required to be
withheld (including taxes in the PRC where applicable) in connection with the delivery of Ordinary Shares under this Plan (including the sale of Ordinary Shares as may be required to comply with foreign exchange rules in the PRC for participants
resident in the PRC), the Administrator may in its sole discretion (subject to Section 8.1) grant (either at the time of the award or thereafter) to the participant the right to elect, pursuant to such rules and subject to such conditions as
the Administrator may establish, that the Company reduce the number of shares to be delivered by (or otherwise reacquire) the appropriate number of shares, valued in a consistent manner at their fair market value or at the sales price in accordance
with authorized procedures for cashless exercises, necessary to satisfy the minimum applicable withholding obligation on exercise, vesting or payment. In no event shall the shares withheld exceed the minimum whole number of shares required for tax
withholding under applicable law. 

  
 14 

	 	8.6	Effective Date, Termination and Suspension, Amendments. 

 8.6.1
Effective Date. This Plan is effective as of October 1, 2013 (the “Effective Date”). This Plan shall be submitted for and subject to shareholder approval in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Unless
earlier terminated by the Board, this Plan shall terminate at the close of business on August 12, 2023. After the termination of this Plan either upon such stated expiration date or its earlier termination by the Board, no additional awards may be
granted under this Plan, but previously granted awards (and the authority of the Administrator with respect thereto, including the authority to amend such awards) shall remain outstanding in accordance with their applicable terms and conditions and
the terms and conditions of this Plan. 
 8.6.2 Board Authorization. The Board may, at any time, terminate
or, from time to time, amend, modify or suspend this Plan, in whole or in part. No awards may be granted during any period that the Board suspends this Plan. 

8.6.3 Shareholder Approval. To the extent then required by applicable law or any applicable listing agency or required
under Sections 162, 422 or 424 of the Code to preserve the intended tax consequences of this Plan, or deemed necessary or advisable by the Board, any amendment to this Plan shall be subject to shareholder approval. 

8.6.4 Amendments to Awards. Without limiting any other express authority of the Administrator under (but subject to) the
express limits of this Plan, the Administrator by agreement or resolution may waive conditions of or limitations on awards to participants that the Administrator in the prior exercise of its discretion has imposed, without the consent of a
participant, and (subject to the requirements of Sections 3.2 and 8.6.5) may make other changes to the terms and conditions of awards. 

8.6.5 Limitations on Amendments to Plan and Awards. No amendment, suspension or termination of this Plan or amendment of
any outstanding award agreement shall, without written consent of the participant, affect in any manner materially adverse to the participant any rights or benefits of the participant or obligations of the Company under any award granted under this
Plan prior to the effective date of such change. Changes, settlements and other actions contemplated by Section 7 shall not be deemed to constitute changes or amendments for purposes of this Section 8.6. 

 

	 	8.7	Privileges of Share Ownership. Except as otherwise expressly authorized by the Administrator, a participant shall not be entitled to any privilege of share ownership as to any Ordinary Shares not
actually delivered to and held of record by the participant. Except as expressly required by Section 7.1 or otherwise expressly provided by the Administrator, no adjustment will be made for dividends or other rights as a shareholder for which a
record date is prior to such date of delivery. 

  

	 	8.8	Governing Law; Construction; Severability. 

 8.8.1
Choice of Law. This Plan, the awards, all documents evidencing awards and all other related documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands. 

  
 15 

 8.8.2 Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision
invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Plan shall continue in effect. 
 8.8.3 Plan Construction.

  

	 	(a)	Rule 16b-3. It is the intent of the Company that the awards and transactions permitted by awards be interpreted in a manner that, in the case of participants who are or may be subject to Section 16 of the
Exchange Act, qualify, to the maximum extent compatible with the express terms of the award, for exemption from matching liability under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no
liability to any participant for Section 16 consequences of awards or events under awards if an award or event does not so qualify. 

  

	 	(b)	Section 162(m). Options and SARs granted to employees of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries with an exercise or base price not less than the fair market value of a share of Ordinary Shares at the date of
grant that are approved by a committee composed solely of two or more outside directors (as this requirement is applied under Section 162(m) of the Code) shall be deemed to be intended as performance-based compensation within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code unless such committee provides otherwise at the time of grant of the award. It is the further intent of the Company that (to the extent the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or awards under this Plan may be or become
subject to limitations on deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code) any such awards that are granted to or held by a person subject to Section 162(m) will qualify as performance-based compensation or otherwise be exempt from
deductibility limitations under Section 162(m). 

  

	 	8.9	Captions. Captions and headings are given to the sections and subsections of this Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or
relevant to the construction or interpretation of this Plan or any provision thereof. 

  

	 	8.10	Share-Based Awards in Substitution for Share Options or Awards Granted by Other Company. Awards may be granted to Eligible Persons in substitution for or in connection with an assumption of employee
share options, SARs, restricted shares or other share-based awards granted by other entities to persons who are or who will become Eligible Persons in respect of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, in connection with a distribution, merger or
other reorganization by or with the granting entity or an affiliated entity, or the acquisition by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, of all or a substantial part of the shares or assets of the employing entity. The
awards so granted need not comply with other specific terms of this Plan, provided the awards reflect only adjustments giving effect to the assumption or substitution consistent with the 

  
 16 

 
conversion applicable to the Ordinary Shares in the transaction and any change in the issuer of the security. Any shares that are delivered and any awards that are granted by, or become
obligations of, the Company, as a result of the assumption by the Company of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an acquired company (or previously granted by a predecessor employer (or direct or indirect parent
thereof) in the case of persons that become employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries in connection with a business or asset acquisition or similar transaction) shall not be counted against the Share Limit or other limits on the number of
shares available for issuance under this Plan. 
  

	 	8.11	Non-Exclusivity of Plan. Nothing in this Plan shall limit or be deemed to limit the authority of the Board or the Administrator to grant awards or authorize any other compensation, with or without
reference to the Ordinary Shares, under any other plan or authority. 

  

	 	8.12	No Corporate Action Restriction. The existence of this Plan, the award agreements and the awards granted hereunder shall not limit, affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or
the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize: (a) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the capital structure or business of the Company or any Subsidiary, (b) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation
or change in the ownership of the Company or any Subsidiary, (c) any issue of bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference shares ahead of or affecting the capital shares (or the rights thereof) of the Company or any Subsidiary,
(d) any dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary, (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of the assets or business of the Company or any Subsidiary, or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Company
or any Subsidiary. No participant, beneficiary or any other person shall have any claim under any award or award agreement against any member of the Board or the Administrator, or the Company or any employees, officers or agents of the Company or
any Subsidiary, as a result of any such action. 

  

	 	8.13	Other Company Benefit and Compensation Programs. Payments and other benefits received by a participant under an award made pursuant to this Plan shall not be deemed a part of a participant’s
compensation for purposes of the determination of benefits under any other employee welfare or benefit plans or arrangements, if any, provided by the Company or any Subsidiary, except where the Administrator expressly otherwise provides or
authorizes in writing. Awards under this Plan may be made in addition to, in combination with, as alternatives to or in payment of grants, awards or commitments under any other plans or arrangements of the Company or its Subsidiaries.

  

	 	8.14	Clawback Policy. The awards granted under this Plan are subject to the terms of the Company’s recoupment, clawback or similar policy as it may be in effect from time to time, as well as any
similar provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of awards or any Ordinary Shares or other cash or property received with respect to the awards (including any value received from a
disposition of the shares acquired upon payment of the awards).

monthly installments, with the first installment vesting on the last day of the month following the month in which the first anniversary of the Award Date occurs and an additional installment vesting on the last day of each of the 35 months

 CONSENT OF SPOUSE 

In consideration of the Company’s execution of this Option Agreement, the undersigned spouse of the Grantee agrees to be bound by all of
the terms and provisions hereof and of the Plan. 
  
  

Signature of Spouse Date 
  

 

	1 	Subject to adjustment under Section 7.1 of the Plan. 

	2 	Subject to early termination under Section 4 of the Terms and Section 7.2 of the Plan. 

  
 1 

 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION 

 

	1.	Vesting; Limits on Exercise. 

 The Option shall vest and become exercisable in
percentage installments of the aggregate number of shares subject to the Option as set forth on the cover page of this Option Agreement. The Option may be exercised only to the extent the Option is vested and exercisable. 

 

	 	•	 	Cumulative Exercisability. To the extent that the Option is vested and exercisable, the Grantee has the right to exercise the Option (to the extent not previously exercised), and such right shall continue, until
the expiration or earlier termination of the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	No Fractional Shares. Fractional share interests shall be disregarded, but may be cumulated. 

  

	 	•	 	Minimum Exercise. No fewer than 100 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment under Section 7.1 of the Plan) may be purchased at any one time, unless the number purchased is the total number at the time
exercisable under the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	ISO Value Limit. If the aggregate fair market value of the shares with respect to which ISOs (whether granted under the Option or otherwise) first become exercisable by the Grantee in any calendar year exceeds
$100,000, as measured on the applicable Award Dates, the limitations of Section 5.1.2 of the Plan shall apply and to such extent the Option will be rendered a nonqualified stock option. 

 

	2.	Continuance of Employment/Service Required; No Employment/Service Commitment. 

The vesting schedule applicable to the Option requires continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to
the vesting of the applicable installment of the Option and the rights and benefits under this Option Agreement. Employment or service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Grantee to any
proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided in Section 4 below or under the Plan. 

Nothing contained in this Option Agreement or the Plan constitutes a continued employment or service commitment by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, confers upon the Grantee any right to remain employed by or in service to the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate such employment or service, or
affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease the Grantee’s other compensation. Nothing in this Option Agreement, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Grantee without
his/her consent thereto. 

	3.	Method of Exercise of Option. 

 The Option shall be exercisable by the delivery to
the Secretary of the Company (or such other person as the Administrator may require pursuant to such administrative exercise procedures as the Administrator may implement from time to time) of: 

 

	 	•	 	a written notice stating the number of Ordinary Shares to be purchased pursuant to the Option or by the completion of such other administrative exercise procedures as the Administrator may require from time to time,

  

	 	•	 	payment in full for the Exercise Price of the shares to be purchased in cash, check or by electronic funds transfer to the Company, or (subject to compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and listing
requirements and further subject to such rules as the Administrator may adopt as to any non-cash payment) in Ordinary Shares already owned by the Grantee, valued at their fair market value (as determined under the Plan) on the exercise date;

  

	 	•	 	any written statements or agreements required pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan; and 

  

	 	•	 	satisfaction of the tax withholding provisions of Section 8.5 of the Plan. 

 The
Administrator also may, but is not required to, authorize a non-cash payment alternative by one or more of the following methods (subject in each case to compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and listing requirements and further
subject to such rules as the Administrator may adopt as to any such payment method): 
  

	 	•	 	notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator; 

  

	 	•	 	in Ordinary Shares already owned by the Grantee, valued at their fair market value (as determined under the Plan) on the exercise date; 

 

	 	•	 	a reduction in the number of Ordinary Shares otherwise deliverable to the Grantee (valued at their fair market value on the exercise date, as determined under the Plan) pursuant to the exercise of the Option; or

  

	 	•	 	a “cashless exercise” with a third party who provides simultaneous financing for the purposes of (or who otherwise facilitates) the exercise of the Option. 

The Option will qualify as an ISO only if it meets all of the applicable requirements of the Code. The Option may be rendered a nonqualified
stock option if the Administrator permits the use of one or more of the non-cash payment alternatives referenced above. 
  

	4.	Early Termination of Option. 

 4.1 Expiration Date. Subject to
earlier termination as provided below in this Section 4, the Option will terminate on the “Expiration Date” as set forth on the cover page of this Option Agreement (the “Expiration Date”). 

 4.2 Possible Termination of Option upon Certain Corporate Events. The Option is subject to
termination in connection with certain corporate events as provided in Section 7.2 of the Plan. 
 4.3 Termination of Option upon a
Termination of Grantee’s Employment or Services. Subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option or pursuant to Section 4.2 above, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by or ceases to provide services to the Company
or a Subsidiary, the following rules shall apply (the last day that the Grantee is employed by or provides services to the Company or a Subsidiary is referred to as the Grantee’s “Severance Date”): 

 

	 	•	 	other than as expressly provided below in this Section 4.3, (a) the Grantee will have until the date that is 3 months after his or her Severance Date to exercise the Option (or portion thereof) to the extent
that it was vested on the Severance Date, (b) the Option, to the extent not vested on the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 3-month period following the Severance
Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the last day of the 3-month period; 

  

	 	•	 	if the termination of the Grantee’s employment or services is the result of the Grantee’s death or Total Disability (as defined below), (a) the Grantee (or his beneficiary or personal representative, as
the case may be) will have until the date that is 12 months after the Grantee’s Severance Date to exercise the Option (or portion thereof) to the extent that it was vested on the Severance Date, (b) the Option, to the extent not vested on
the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 12-month period following the Severance Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the
last day of the 12-month period; 

  

	 	•	 	if the Grantee’s employment or services are terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause (as defined below), the Option (whether vested or not) shall terminate on the Severance Date. 

For purposes of the Option, “Total Disability” means a “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code or as otherwise determined by the Administrator). 
 For purposes of the Option, “Cause”
means that the Grantee: 
 has been negligent in the discharge of his or her duties to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, has refused to perform stated or assigned duties or is incompetent in or (other than by reason of a disability or analogous condition) incapable of performing those duties; 

 has been dishonest or committed or engaged in an act of theft, embezzlement or
fraud, a breach of confidentiality, an unauthorized disclosure or use of inside information, customer lists, trade secrets or other confidential information; has breached a fiduciary duty, or willfully and materially violated any other duty, law,
rule, regulation or policy of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor (other than minor traffic violations or similar offenses); 

has materially breached any of the provisions of any agreement with the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or 
 has engaged in unfair competition with, or otherwise acted intentionally in a
manner injurious to the reputation, business or assets of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; has improperly induced a vendor or customer to break or terminate any contract with the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or has induced a principal for whom the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acts as agent to
terminate such agency relationship. 
 In all events the Option is subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option or as
contemplated by Section 4.2. The Administrator shall be the sole judge of whether the Grantee continues to render employment or services for purposes of this Option Agreement. 

Notwithstanding any post-termination exercise period provided for herein or in the Plan, the Option will qualify as an ISO only if it is
exercised within the applicable exercise periods for ISOs under, and meets all of the other requirements of, the Code. If the Option is not exercised within the applicable exercise periods for ISOs or does not meet such other requirements, the
Option will be rendered a nonqualified stock option. 
  

	5.	Non-Transferability. 

 The Option and any other rights of the Grantee under this
Option Agreement or the Plan are nontransferable and exercisable only by the Grantee, except as set forth in Section 5.7 of the Plan. 
  

	6.	Notices. 

 Any notice to be given under the terms of this Option Agreement shall
be in writing and addressed to the Company at its principal office to the attention of the Secretary, and to the Grantee at the address last reflected on the Company’s payroll records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter
designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be given in writing and shall be delivered in person or shall be enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as aforesaid, registered or certified, and deposited (postage and registry or
certification fee prepaid) through an internationally-recognized express courier service. Any such notice shall be given only when received, but if the Grantee is no longer employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, shall be deemed to have been duly
given five business days after the date mailed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 6. 

	7.	Plan. 

 The Option and all rights of the Grantee under this Option Agreement are
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, incorporated herein by this reference. The Grantee agrees to be bound by the terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement (including these Terms). The Grantee acknowledges having read and understanding
the Plan, the Prospectus for the Plan, and this Option Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other sections of this Option Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the Board or the Administrator do not and
shall not be deemed to create any rights in the Grantee unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Board or the Administrator so conferred by appropriate action of the Board or the Administrator
under the Plan after the date hereof. 
  

	8.	Entire Agreement. 

 This Option Agreement (including these Terms) and the Plan
together constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Plan and this Option Agreement may be amended pursuant to
Section 8.6 of the Plan. Such amendment must be in writing and signed by the Company. The Company may, however, unilaterally waive any provision hereof in writing to the extent such waiver does not adversely affect the interests of the Grantee
hereunder, but no such waiver shall operate as or be construed to be a subsequent waiver of the same provision or a waiver of any other provision hereof. 
  

	9.	Governing Law; Limited Rights; Severability. 

 9.1 Cayman Islands Laws;
Construction. This Option Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands without regard to conflict of law principles thereunder. The terms of the Option grant have resulted from the
negotiations of the parties and each of the parties has had an opportunity to obtain and consult with its own counsel. The language of all parts of the Plan and this Option Agreement (including these Terms) shall in all cases be construed as a
whole, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against either of the parties. 
 9.2 Limited Rights. The Grantee has no
rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Option as set forth in Section 8.7 of the Plan. The Option does not place any limit on the corporate authority of the Company as set forth in Section 8.12 of the Plan. 

9.3 Severability. If the arbitrator selected in accordance with this Option Agreement or a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any portion of this Option Agreement or the Plan is in violation of any statute or public policy, then only the portions of this Option Agreement and the Plan, as applicable, which violate such statute or public policy shall be stricken, and
all portions of this Option Agreement and the Plan which do not violate any public policy or statute shall continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, it is the parties’ intent that any court order striking any portion of this Option
Agreement and/or the Plan should modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties hereunder. 

	10.	Arbitration. 

 10.1 Any dispute, controversy or claim (each, a
“Dispute”) arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Option Agreement, including the interpretation, validity, invalidity, breach or termination thereof, shall be settled by arbitration. 

10.2 The arbitration shall be conducted in Hong Kong under the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre Administered Arbitration Rules
in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted in accordance with the said Rule. There shall be one (1) arbitrator who shall be selected by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre. 

10.3 The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English.

 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION 

 

	15.	Vesting; Limits on Exercise; Incentive Stock Option Status. 

 The Option shall
vest and become exercisable in percentage installments of the aggregate number of shares subject to the Option as set forth on the cover page of this Option Agreement. The Option may be exercised only to the extent the Option is vested and
exercisable. 
  

	 	•	 	Cumulative Exercisability. To the extent that the Option is vested and exercisable, the Grantee has the right to exercise the Option (to the extent not previously exercised), and such right shall continue, until
the expiration or earlier termination of the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	No Fractional Shares. Fractional share interests shall be disregarded, but may be cumulated. 

  

	 	•	 	Minimum Exercise. No fewer than 100 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment under Section 7.1 of the Plan) may be purchased at any one time, unless the number purchased is the total number at the time
exercisable under the Option. 

  

	 	•	 	Nonqualified Stock Option. The Option is a nonqualified stock option and is not, and shall not be, an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code. 

 

	16.	Continuance of Employment/Service Required; No Employment/Service Commitment. 

The vesting schedule applicable to the Option requires continued employment or service through each applicable vesting date as a condition to
the vesting of the applicable installment of the Option and the rights and benefits under this Option Agreement. Employment or service for only a portion of the vesting period, even if a substantial portion, will not entitle the Grantee to any
proportionate vesting or avoid or mitigate a termination of rights and benefits upon or following a termination of employment or services as provided in Section 4 below or under the Plan. 

Nothing contained in this Option Agreement or the Plan constitutes a continued employment or service commitment by the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, confers upon the Grantee any right to remain employed by or in service to the Company or any Subsidiary, interferes in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary at any time to terminate such employment or service, or
affects the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to increase or decrease the Grantee’s other compensation. Nothing in this Option Agreement, however, is intended to adversely affect any independent contractual right of the Grantee without
his/her consent thereto. 
  

	17.	Method of Exercise of Option. 

 The Option shall be exercisable by the delivery to
the Secretary of the Company (or such other person as the Administrator may require pursuant to such administrative exercise procedures as the Administrator may implement from time to time) of: 

	 	•	 	a written notice stating the number of Ordinary Shares to be purchased pursuant to the Option or by the completion of such other administrative exercise procedures as the Administrator may require from time to time,

  

	 	•	 	payment in full for the Exercise Price of the shares to be purchased in cash, check or by electronic funds transfer to the Company, or (subject to compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and listing
requirements and further subject to such rules as the Administrator may adopt as to any non-cash payment) in Ordinary Shares already owned by the Grantee, valued at their fair market value (as determined under the Plan) on the exercise date;

  

	 	•	 	any written statements or agreements required pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Plan; and 

  

	 	•	 	satisfaction of the tax withholding provisions of Section 8.5 of the Plan. 

 The
Administrator also may, but is not required to, authorize a non-cash payment alternative by one or more of the following methods (subject in each case to compliance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and listing requirements and further
subject to such rules as the Administrator may adopt as to any such payment method): 
  

	 	•	 	notice and third party payment in such manner as may be authorized by the Administrator; 

  

	 	•	 	in Ordinary Shares already owned by the Grantee, valued at their fair market value (as determined under the Plan) on the exercise date; 

 

	 	•	 	a reduction in the number of Ordinary Shares otherwise deliverable to the Grantee (valued at their fair market value on the exercise date, as determined under the Plan) pursuant to the exercise of the Option; or

  

	 	•	 	a “cashless exercise” with a third party who provides simultaneous financing for the purposes of (or who otherwise facilitates) the exercise of the Option. 

 

	18.	Early Termination of Option. 

 18.1 Expiration Date. Subject to
earlier termination as provided below in this Section 4, the Option will terminate on the “Expiration Date” set forth on the cover page of this Option Agreement (the “Expiration Date”). 

18.2 Possible Termination of Option upon Certain Corporate Events. The Option is subject to termination in connection with certain
corporate events as provided in Section 7.2 of the Plan. 
 18.3 Termination of Option upon a Termination of Grantee’s
Employment or Services. Subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option or pursuant to Section 4.2 above, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by or ceases to provide services to the Company or a Subsidiary, the
following rules shall apply (the last day that the Grantee is employed by or provides services to the Company or a Subsidiary is referred to as the Grantee’s “Severance Date”): 

	 	•	 	other than as expressly provided below in this Section 4.3, (a) the Grantee will have until the date that is 3 months after his or her Severance Date to exercise the Option (or portion thereof) to the extent
that it was vested on the Severance Date, (b) the Option, to the extent not vested on the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 3-month period following the Severance
Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the last day of the 3-month period; 

  

	 	•	 	if the termination of the Grantee’s employment or services is the result of the Grantee’s death or Total Disability (as defined below), (a) the Grantee (or his beneficiary or personal representative, as
the case may be) will have until the date that is 12 months after the Grantee’s Severance Date to exercise the Option (or portion thereof) to the extent that it was vested on the Severance Date, (b) the Option, to the extent not vested on
the Severance Date, shall terminate on the Severance Date, and (c) the Option, to the extent exercisable for the 12-month period following the Severance Date and not exercised during such period, shall terminate at the close of business on the
last day of the 12-month period; 

  

	 	•	 	if the Grantee’s employment or services are terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause (as defined below), the Option (whether vested or not) shall terminate on the Severance Date. 

For purposes of the Option, “Total Disability” means a “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code or as otherwise determined by the Administrator). 
 For purposes of the Option, “Cause”
means that the Grantee: 
 has been negligent in the discharge of his or her duties to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, has refused to perform stated or assigned duties or is incompetent in or (other than by reason of a disability or analogous condition) incapable of performing those duties; 

has been dishonest or committed or engaged in an act of theft, embezzlement or fraud, a breach of confidentiality, an
unauthorized disclosure or use of inside information, customer lists, trade secrets or other confidential information; has breached a fiduciary duty, or willfully and materially violated any other duty, law, rule, regulation or policy of the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor (other than minor traffic violations or similar offenses); 

has materially breached any of the provisions of any agreement with the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of
the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or 

 has engaged in unfair competition with, or otherwise acted intentionally in a
manner injurious to the reputation, business or assets of, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; has improperly induced a vendor or customer to break or terminate any contract with the
Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or has induced a principal for whom the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any affiliate of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acts as agent to
terminate such agency relationship. 
 In all events the Option is subject to earlier termination on the Expiration Date of the Option or as
contemplated by Section 4.2. The Administrator shall be the sole judge of whether the Grantee continues to render employment or services for purposes of this Option Agreement. 

 

	19.	Non-Transferability. 

 The Option and any other rights of the Grantee under this
Option Agreement or the Plan are nontransferable and exercisable only by the Grantee, except as set forth in Section 5.7 of the Plan. 
  

	20.	Notices. 

 Any notice to be given under the terms of this Option Agreement shall
be in writing and addressed to the Company at its principal office to the attention of the Secretary, and to the Grantee at the address last reflected on the Company’s payroll records, or at such other address as either party may hereafter
designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be given in writing and shall be delivered in person or shall be enclosed in a properly sealed envelope addressed as aforesaid, registered or certified, and deposited (postage and registry or
certification fee prepaid) through an internationally-recognized express courier service. Any such notice shall be given only when received, but if the Grantee is no longer employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, shall be deemed to have been duly
given five business days after the date mailed in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 6. 
  

	21.	Plan. 

 The Option and all rights of the Grantee under this Option Agreement are
subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, incorporated herein by this reference. The Grantee agrees to be bound by the terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement (including these Terms). The Grantee acknowledges having read and understanding
the Plan, the Prospectus for the Plan, and this Option Agreement. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other sections of this Option Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the Board or the Administrator do not and
shall not be deemed to create any rights in the Grantee unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole discretion of the Board or the Administrator so conferred by appropriate action of the Board or the Administrator
under the Plan after the date hereof. 

	22.	Entire Agreement. 

 This Option Agreement (including these Terms) and the Plan
together constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, written or oral, of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Plan and this Option Agreement may be amended pursuant to
Section 8.6 of the Plan. Such amendment must be in writing and signed by the Company. The Company may, however, unilaterally waive any provision hereof in writing to the extent such waiver does not adversely affect the interests of the Grantee
hereunder, but no such waiver shall operate as or be construed to be a subsequent waiver of the same provision or a waiver of any other provision hereof. 
  

	23.	Governing Law; Limited Rights; Severability. 

 23.1 Cayman Islands Laws;
Construction. This Option Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands without regard to conflict of law principles thereunder. The terms of the Option grant have resulted from the
negotiations of the parties and each of the parties has had an opportunity to obtain and consult with its own counsel. The language of all parts of the Plan and this Option Agreement (including these Terms) shall in all cases be construed as a
whole, according to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against either of the parties. 
 23.2 Limited Rights. The Grantee has
no rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Option as set forth in Section 8.7 of the Plan. The Option does not place any limit on the corporate authority of the Company as set forth in Section 8.12 of the Plan. 

23.3 Severability. If the arbitrator selected in accordance with this Option Agreement or a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that any portion of this Option Agreement or the Plan is in violation of any statute or public policy, then only the portions of this Option Agreement and the Plan, as applicable, which violate such statute or public policy shall be stricken, and
all portions of this Option Agreement and the Plan which do not violate any public policy or statute shall continue in full force and effect. Furthermore, it is the parties’ intent that any court order striking any portion of this Option
Agreement and/or the Plan should modify the stricken terms as narrowly as possible to give as much effect as possible to the intentions of the parties hereunder.

“Dispute”) arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Option Agreement, including the interpretation, validity, invalidity, breach or termination thereof, shall be settled by arbitration.

taking such action (subject to commercially reasonable efforts) as a result of this Agreement, it shall as promptly as reasonably practical notify Purchaser in writing of such circumstances. 

 

	 	(n)	Cooperation. Vitran shall make, or cooperate as necessary in the making of, all necessary filings and applications under all applicable Laws required in connection with the Arrangement and take all reasonable

the termination of this Agreement, to the properties, books, contracts and records as well as to the management personnel of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries, and, during such period, Vitran shall, and shall cause the Vitran Subsidiaries to,
furnish as promptly as reasonably practical to Purchaser all information concerning the business, properties and personnel of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries as Purchaser may reasonably request. Investigations made by or on behalf of Purchaser,

certificates, resolutions and other closing documents as may be required by Purchaser hereto, all in form satisfactory to Purchaser, acting reasonably.

to, use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) effect such reorganizations of its business, operations and assets and the integration of other affiliated businesses as Purchaser may request, acting reasonably (each a
“Pre-Acquisition Reorganization”) provided that the Pre-Acquisition Reorganization is not prejudicial to Vitran, any of the Vitran Subsidiaries or the Vitran Shareholders, and (ii) cooperate with Purchaser and its advisors to
determine the nature of the Pre-Acquisition Reorganizations that might be undertaken and the manner in which they would most effectively be undertaken. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Pre-Acquisition Reorganizations shall not
(A) delay or prevent consummation of the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated herein (including by giving rise to litigation by third parties or the need for prior

  
 23 

	 	
approval of the Vitran Shareholders), or (B) be considered in determining whether a representation or warranty of Vitran hereunder has been breached, it being acknowledged by Purchaser that
these actions could require the consent of third parties under applicable contracts. Purchaser shall provide written notice to Vitran of any proposed Pre-Acquisition Reorganization at least ten Business Days prior to the Effective Date. Upon receipt
of such notice, Purchaser and Vitran shall work cooperatively and use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare prior to the Effective Time all documentation necessary and do such other acts and things as are necessary to give effect to such
Pre-Acquisition Reorganizations. The Parties shall seek to have any such Pre-Acquisition Reorganization made effective as of the last moment of the day ending immediately prior to the Effective Time (but after Purchaser shall have waived or
confirmed that all conditions to completion of the Arrangement have been satisfied). 

  

	 	(u)	Cooperation on Debt Financing. Vitran shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide, and shall cause the Vitran Subsidiaries and its and their representatives to use its and their commercially
reasonable efforts to provide, to Purchaser all such reasonable and timely cooperation as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser and at Purchaser’s cost and expense, and that is customary in connection with its financing of the Consideration

regarding Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, (c) assisting Purchaser and its financing sources in the preparation of documents required in connection with its financing, (d) assisting Purchaser
and its financing sources in connection with matters relating to title to assets or property, (e) facilitating the pledging of Vitran collateral, (f) cooperating with Purchaser and its financing sources in connection with any syndication
of the financing, if required, and (g) facilitating the execution and delivery of definitive documents related to the financing. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries and officers and representatives have no
responsibility for any financing that Purchaser may raise in connection with the Transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser also acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining financing by Purchaser is not a condition to any of its obligations
hereunder, regardless of the reasons why financing is not obtained or whether such reasons are within or beyond the control of Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, if any financing referred to in this Section 8(u), is not obtained, Purchaser
shall continue to be obligated to consummate the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions contemplated by this Agreement. Purchaser shall indemnify and save harmless Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries and
their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by any of them in
connection with or as a result of any assistance and cooperation in connection with such financing (including actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses for filing fees and external counsel). 

  
 24 

	 	(v)	Incentive Plans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, Vitran will cause the following to be completed prior to the Effective Time: 

 

	 	(i)	All Vitran Options which are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will accelerate and vest effective immediately prior to the Effective Time and all Vitran Options which are outstanding immediately prior

	 	(ii)	All outstanding Vitran DSUs which are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will vest effective immediately prior to the Effective Time. 

 

	 	(iii)	The Parties acknowledge that the outstanding Vitran Options and Vitran DSUs shall be treated in accordance with the provisions of the Plan of Arrangement. The Parties acknowledge that no deduction will be claimed by
Vitran in respect of any payment made to a holder of Vitran Options in respect of Vitran Options pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement who is a resident of Canada or who is employed in Canada (both within the meaning of the Tax Act), in computing the
Parties’ taxable income under the Tax Act, and Vitran shall: (i) where applicable, make an election pursuant to subsection 110(1.1) of the Tax Act in respect of the cash payments made in exchange for the surrender of Vitran Options, and
(ii) provide evidence in writing of such election to holders of Vitran Options, it being understood that holders of Vitran Options shall be entitled to claim any deductions available to such Persons pursuant to the Tax Act in respect of the
calculation of any benefit arising from the surrender of Vitran Options. 

  

	 	(w)	In addition: 

  

	 	(i)	Purchaser shall indemnify and save harmless Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and representatives from and against any and all liabilities, losses,
damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization (including actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses for filing fees
and external counsel); 

  

	 	(ii)	any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not become effective unless Purchaser shall have confirmed in writing the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions in its favour and shall have confirmed in writing that it is
prepared to promptly, without condition, proceed to effect the Arrangement; 

  
 25 

	 	(iii)	any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not in the determination of Vitran, acting reasonably, unreasonably interfere in the material operations prior to the Effective Time of Vitran or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries;

  

	 	(iv)	unless the Parties otherwise agree, any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not require any filings with, notifications to or approvals of any Governmental Entity or third party; 

 

	 	(v)	any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not require Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary to contravene any applicable Laws, their respective organizational documents or any contract; 

 

	 	(vi)	Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries shall not be obligated to take any action that could result in any Taxes being imposed on, or any adverse Tax or other consequences to, any securityholder of Vitran incrementally
greater than the Taxes or other consequences to such Party in connection with the consummation of the Arrangement in the absence of any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization; and 

 

	 	(vii)	such cooperation by Vitran in any Pre-Acquisition Reorganization shall not require the directors, officers or Employees of Vitran to take any action in any capacity other than as a director, officer or employee, as
applicable. 

  

	 	(x)	Rule 16b-3. Prior to the Effective Time, Vitran shall take such steps as may be reasonably necessary or advisable to cause dispositions of Vitran equity securities (including derivative securities) pursuant to
the Transactions by each individual who is a director or officer of Vitran to be exempt under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the U.S. Exchange Act to the extent permitted by applicable Laws.

of the Effective Date as if made on and as of such date. 

  

	 	(h)	Closing Documents. Purchaser shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered at the closing of the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated hereby such customary agreements,

 28 

	 	(j)	 Indemnification and Insurance. Purchaser covenants and agrees that all rights to indemnification or exculpation in favour of the current and
former directors and officers of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries described in the Vitran Disclosure Letter shall be honoured by Purchaser. Prior to the Effective Date, Vitran shall and, if Vitran is unable to, Purchaser shall cause Vitran as of
the Effective Time to, obtain and fully pay the premium for the extension of the directors’, officers’ and employees’ insurance policies of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries for a claims reporting or run-off and extended reporting
period of at least six years from and after the Effective Time with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as Vitran’s current
insurance carriers with respect to directors’, officers’ and employees’ liability insurance, and with terms, conditions, retentions and limits of liability that are no less favourable to the indemnified persons than the coverage
provided under existing policies of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries in effect on the Effective Date hereof, with respect to protection in respect of claims arising from facts or events which occurred on or prior to the Effective Date (including
in connection with the approval or completion of the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated by this Agreement or arising out of or related to this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby); provided that Purchaser will not be
required to pay any amounts in respect of coverage prior to the Effective Time and provided further that the cost of such “runoff” policies shall not exceed 150% of Vitran’s current annual aggregate premium for policies currently
maintained by Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries. If Vitran for any reason fails to obtain such “runoff” insurance policies as of the Effective Time, Purchaser will, or will cause Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries to, maintain in effect
without any reduction in scope or coverage for six years from the Effective Time customary policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing protection no less favourable to the indemnified persons than the protection
provided by the policies maintained by Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries which are in effect on the Effective Date and providing protection in respect of claims arising from facts or events which occurred on or prior to the Effective Date; provided
that Purchaser will not be required to pay any amounts in respect of such coverage prior to the Effective Time and provided further that the cost of such policies shall not exceed 150% per year of Vitran’s current annual aggregate premium
for policies currently maintained by Vitran (including in connection with the approval or completion of the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated by this Agreement or arising out of or related to this Agreement and the Transactions
contemplated hereby); provided that if the cost in any year does exceed 150% of Vitran’s current annual aggregate premium for policies currently maintained by Vitran, Purchaser will or will cause Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries to maintain
as much coverage is available for the cost equal to 150% of Vitran’s current annual aggregate premium for policies currently maintained by Vitran. Purchaser shall cause Vitran to ensure that the articles and/or by-laws of Vitran and the Vitran
Subsidiaries (or their respective successors) shall contain the provisions with respect to indemnification set forth in Vitran’s or the applicable Subsidiary’s articles and/or by-laws, which provisions shall not, except to the extent
required by applicable Laws, be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of 

  
 29 

	 	
six years from the Effective Date in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, immediately prior to the Effective Date, were directors or officers of Vitran
or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries. The provisions of this Section 9(j) are intended for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each insured or indemnified Person, his or her heirs and his or her legal representatives and, for such
purpose, Vitran hereby confirms that it is acting as agent and trustee on their behalf. Furthermore, this Section 9(j) shall survive the termination of this Agreement as a result of the occurrence of the Effective Date and continue in full
force and effect in accordance with the terms hereof. 

  

	 	(k)	Payment of Consideration. Purchaser will, following receipt of the Final Order and prior to the Effective Time, deposit or cause to be deposited with the depository under the Arrangement sufficient funds in
escrow to pay the aggregate Consideration to be paid pursuant to the Arrangement to Vitran Shareholders, Vitran Optionholders and holders of Vitran DSUs. 

  

	10.	Competition Act Approval, Transportation Act Approval, HSR Approval and Key Third Party Consents 

  

	 	(a)	As soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, each Party, or where appropriate, both Parties jointly, shall make all notifications, filings, applications and submissions with Governmental Entities required or
advisable, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain Competition Act Approval, Transportation Act Approval the Key Third Party Consents and approval under the HSR, as applicable. Purchaser and Vitran shall equally share the filing fees

foregoing, submissions, filings or other written communications with any Governmental Entity may be redacted as necessary before sharing with the other Party to address reasonable attorney-client or other privilege or confidentiality concerns,
provided that a Party must provide external legal counsel to the other Party non-redacted versions of drafts or final submissions, filings or other written communications with any Governmental Entity on the basis that the redacted information will
not be shared with its clients.

 The obligation of Purchaser to complete the
Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated herein shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

 Purchaser and Vitran shall use their reasonable commercial efforts to
complete the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated herein by the Completion Deadline. 
  

	15.	Notice and Cure Provisions 

 Each Party hereto shall give notice as promptly as reasonably
practical to the other Party of the occurrence, or failure to occur, at any time from the date hereof until the Effective Date, of any event or state of facts which occurrence or failure, would be likely to or could: 

 

	 	(a)	cause any of the representations or warranties of such Party hereto contained herein to be untrue or inaccurate in any respect on the date hereof or on the Effective Date; 

 

	 	(b)	result in the failure to comply with or satisfy any covenant or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by such Party hereto prior to the Effective Date; or 

 

	 	(c)	result in the failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent in favour of the other Party hereto contained in Sections 11, 12, or 13 hereof, as the case may be. 

Subject as herein provided, a Party hereto may elect not to complete the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to the conditions
contained in Sections 11, 12 and 13 hereof or exercise any termination right arising therefrom; provided, however, that (i) as promptly as reasonably practical and in any event prior to the Effective Date, the Party hereto intending to rely
thereon has delivered a written notice to the other Party hereto specifying in 

  
 33 

 
reasonable detail the breaches of covenants or untruthfulness or inaccuracy of representations and warranties or other matters which the Party hereto delivering such notice is asserting as the
basis for the exercise of the termination right, as the case may be, and (ii) if any such notice is delivered, and a Party hereto is proceeding diligently, at its own expense, to cure such matter, if such matter is susceptible to being cured,
the Party hereto which has delivered such notice may not terminate this Agreement until the earlier of the Completion Deadline and the expiration of a period of 10 days from date of delivery of such notice. 

 

	16.	No Solicitation 

  

	 	(a)	Except as expressly provided in Sections 16, 17 or 18, Vitran shall not, directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, Employee, representative (including any financial or other adviser) or agent of Vitran
or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries (collectively “Representatives”), or otherwise, and shall not permit any such Person to: 

  

	 	(i)	solicit, assist, initiate, encourage or otherwise facilitate (including by way of furnishing or providing copies of, access to, or disclosure of, any non- public information, properties, facilities, books or records of
Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary or entering into any form of agreement, arrangement or understanding) any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; 

 

	 	(ii)	enter into or otherwise engage or participate in any discussions or negotiations with any Person (other than Purchaser and its Affiliates) regarding any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be
expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal; 

  

	 	(iii)	effect a Change in Recommendation; or 

  

	 	(iv)	accept or enter into (other than a confidentiality agreement permitted by and in accordance with Section 17(a)) or publicly propose to accept or enter into any agreement, understanding or arrangement in respect of an
Acquisition Proposal. 

  

	 	(b)	Except as otherwise provided in this Section 16, Vitran shall, and shall cause the Vitran Subsidiaries and its Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate, and cause to be terminated, any solicitation,
encouragement, discussion, negotiation, or other activities commenced prior to the date of this Agreement with any Person (other than Purchaser and its Affiliates) with respect to any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes, or may reasonably be
expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and in connection therewith, Vitran will: 

  

	 	(i)	immediately discontinue access to any data room to any such Person; and 

  
 34 

	 	(ii)	within two Business Days, request, and exercise all rights it has to require (i) the return or destruction of all copies of any confidential information regarding Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary provided to any
Person, and (ii) the destruction of all material including or incorporating or otherwise reflecting such confidential information regarding Vitran or any Subsidiary, in each case provided to such Person in connection with a potential
Acquisition Proposal and using its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such requests are fully complied with in accordance with the terms of such rights or entitlements. 

 

	 	(c)	Vitran represents and warrants that Vitran has not waived any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement or restriction to which Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary is a Party and entered into in connection with any
inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and further covenants and agrees (i) that Vitran shall take all necessary action to enforce each confidentiality,
standstill, or similar agreement to which Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary is a party in connection with any inquiry, proposal or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal, and
(ii) that neither Vitran, nor any Vitran Subsidiary or any of their respective Representatives have or will, without the prior written consent of Purchaser, release any Person from, or waive, amend, suspend or otherwise modify such
Person’s obligations respecting Vitran, or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries, under any confidentiality, standstill or similar agreement, to which Vitran or any Vitran Subsidiary is a party and entered into in connection with any inquiry, proposal
or offer that constitutes or may reasonably be expected to constitute or lead to, an Acquisition Proposal. 

  

	17.	Responding to an Acquisition Proposal 

  

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding Section 16 and any other provision of this Agreement, if at any time following the date of this Agreement and prior to obtaining the Vitran Required Vote, Vitran receives an unsolicited written
Acquisition Proposal that is not in breach of any confidentiality or standstill agreement between Vitran or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries and the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, Vitran may contact the Person making such Acquisition
Proposal and its representatives to clarify the terms and conditions of such Acquisition Proposal and the likelihood of consummation so as to determine whether such proposal is, or could reasonably be expected to lead to, a Superior Proposal. If the
directors of Vitran thereafter determine in good faith, after consultation with Vitran’s financial advisors and outside legal counsel, (disregarding, for the purposes of any such determination, any term of such Acquisition Proposal that
provides for a due diligence investigation and/or a financing condition) constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute a Superior Proposal, then, following compliance with Section 17(b), Vitran may: 

 

	 	(i)	furnish information with respect to Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal; and 

  
 35 

	 	(ii)	enter into, participate, facilitate and maintain discussions or negotiations with, and otherwise cooperate with or assist, the Person making such Acquisition Proposal, provided that, (i) Vitran has been, and
continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under Sections 17 and 18 and (ii) Vitran will not, and will not allow its Representatives to, disclose any non- public information to such Person without first entering into a confidentiality
and standstill agreement with such Person on terms and conditions no less onerous or more beneficial to such Person than those in the Confidentiality Agreement and otherwise containing terms and conditions that are customary for such agreements,
Vitran promptly provides Purchaser with a copy of such confidentiality and standstill agreement and Vitran promptly provides to Purchaser any material non- public information concerning Vitran or the Vitran Subsidiaries provided to such other Person
which was not previously provided to Purchaser. Any such confidentiality and standstill agreement may not include a provision calling for an exclusive right to negotiate with Vitran and may not restrict Vitran from complying with Sections 17 and 18.

  

	 	(b)	Vitran will, as soon as practicable and in any event within 24 hours of receipt by Vitran, notify Purchaser, first orally and then in writing, of any Acquisition Proposal which any director, senior officer or agent
thereof is or becomes aware of, after the date hereof, any amendment to any such proposal or any request for non-public information relating to Vitran or the Vitran Subsidiaries (such notice to include a copy of any written Acquisition Proposal and
the name of the Person submitting such Acquisition Proposal or making such inquiry, request or contact) and will keep Purchaser reasonably informed as to the status, including any changes to the material terms and conditions of such Acquisition
Proposal and the negotiations relating thereto. 

  

	 	(c)	Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the directors of Vitran from responding in a manner that is consistent with and in accordance with the provisions of Section 16, or from making such disclosure as is
necessary for the directors of Vitran to act in a manner consistent with their fiduciary duties (including through a directors’ circular or otherwise as required by applicable Laws to an Acquisition Proposal that they determine is not a
Superior Proposal). In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit Vitran or the directors of Vitran from taking and disclosing to the Vitran Shareholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2 under the U.S.
Exchange Act or (ii) making any “stop- look-and-listen” communication to the Vitran Shareholders pursuant to Rule 14d- 9(f) under the U.S. Exchange Act; provided that, in the case of a disclosure pursuant to clause (i) that is
not a “stop-look-and-listen” or other similar communication contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the U.S. Exchange Act, the directors of Vitran shall expressly reaffirm its recommendation of the Arrangement in such disclosure unless its
approval or recommendation has been withdrawn, modified or qualified in accordance with Section 20. 

  
 36 

	18.	Right to Match 

  

	 	(a)	Vitran may take any action that is prohibited by Sections 16(a)(iii) or (iv) in respect of any Acquisition Proposal if and only if: 

  

	 	(i)	such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; 

  

	 	(ii)	Vitran has been, and continues to be, in compliance with its obligations under Sections 16, 17 and 18; 

  

	 	(iii)	such Acquisition Proposal is in writing and Purchaser has been provided with a copy of the letter of intent or agreement relating to such Superior Proposal; 

 

	 	(iv)	Vitran has delivered to the Purchaser a written notice of the determination of the directors of Vitran that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal and of the intention of the directors of Vitran to
make a Change in Recommendation and to accept, approve, endorse, recommend or enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, which notice will include the director’s determination regarding the value or range of value
in financial terms that the directors of Vitran have, in consultation with Vitran’s financial advisors, determined should be ascribed to any non-cash consideration, if any, offered under the Superior Proposal (the “Superior Proposal
Notice”); 

  

	 	(v)	at least five Business Days (the “Matching Period”) have elapsed from the date that is the later of the date on which Purchaser received the Superior Proposal Notice and the date on which Purchaser
received a copy of the letter of intent or agreement relating to such Superior Proposal; 

  

	 	(vi)	if Purchaser has offered to amend this Agreement and the Arrangement pursuant to Section 18(b), the directors of Vitran (i) have determined in good faith, after consultation with Vitran’s outside legal counsel
and financial advisors, that such Acquisition Proposal continues to constitute a Superior Proposal (compared to the terms of the Arrangement as proposed to be amended by Purchaser under Section 18(b)); and 

 

	 	(vii)	Vitran has terminated this Agreement pursuant to Section 20(a)(iii)2) and paid any applicable Termination Fee pursuant to Section 19(b). 

 

	 	(b)	 During the Matching Period: (i) Purchaser will have the opportunity (but not the obligation) to offer to amend the Arrangement and this Agreement
in order for such Acquisition Proposal to cease to be a Superior Proposal, (ii) the directors of Vitran shall review any offer made by Purchaser to amend the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement in good faith after consultation with
Vitran’s outside legal and financial advisors, in order to determine whether such offer 

  
 37 

	 	
would, upon acceptance, result in the Acquisition Proposal previously constituting a Superior Proposal ceasing to be a Superior Proposal; and (iii) Vitran shall negotiate in good faith with
Purchaser to make such amendments to the terms of this Agreement and the Arrangement as would enable Purchaser to proceed with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such amended terms. If the directors of Vitran determine that such
Acquisition Proposal would cease to be a Superior Proposal, Vitran shall promptly so advise Purchaser and the Parties shall amend this Agreement to reflect such offer made by Purchaser, and shall take and cause to be taken all such actions as are
necessary to give effect to the foregoing. 

  

	 	(c)	The right of Purchaser under this Section 18 to amend the Arrangement shall apply to a maximum of two amendments or modifications to any Acquisition Proposal that results in an increase in, or modification of, the
consideration (or value of such consideration) to be received by the Vitran Shareholders or other material terms or conditions thereof and Purchaser shall not have the right to further amend the Arrangement in respect of a third such amendment or
modification to any Acquisition Proposal. 

  

	 	(d)	If Vitran provides a Superior Proposal Notice to Purchaser after a date that is less than seven Business Days before the Vitran Meeting, Vitran shall either proceed with or shall postpone the Vitran Meeting to a date
that is not more than seven Business Days after the scheduled date of the Vitran Meeting, as directed by Purchaser. 

  

	 	(e)	Vitran shall advise the Vitran Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives of the prohibitions set out in Sections 16, 17 and 18 and any violation of the restrictions set forth in these sections by Vitran, the
Vitran Subsidiaries or the respective Representatives is deemed to be a breach of these sections by Vitran. 

  

	19.	Termination Fee 

  

	 	(a)	Despite any other provision in this Agreement relating to the payment of fees and expenses, if a Termination Fee Event occurs, Vitran shall pay Purchaser the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 19(c).

  

	 	(b)	For the purposes of this Agreement, “Termination Fee” means an amount equal to USD$4,000,000 and “Termination Fee Event” means the termination of this Agreement: 

 

	 	(i)	by Purchaser, pursuant to Sections 20(a)(iv)2)(A) or 20(a)(iv)2)(B) (Change in Recommendation); 

  

	 	(ii)	by Vitran pursuant to Section 20(a)(iii)2) (Superior Proposal); or 

  
 38 

	 	(iii)	by Vitran or Purchaser pursuant to Section 20(a)(ii)1) (Shareholders Vote Against) or Section 20(a)(ii)2) (Lapse of the Completion Deadline), if: 

 

	 	(1)	prior to such termination, an Acquisition Proposal is made or publicly announced or otherwise publicly disclosed by any Person (other than Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) or any Person (other than Purchaser or any
of its Affiliates) shall have publicly announced an intention to do so and such Acquisition Proposal has not been withdrawn; and 

  

	 	(2)	within twelve months following the date of such termination (A) an Acquisition Proposal (that is the same Acquisition Proposal referred to in Section 19(b)(iii)1)) above) is consummated or effected, or
(B) Vitran or one or more of the Vitran Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, in one or more transactions, enters into a contract in respect of the same Acquisition Proposal referred to in Section 19(b)(iii)1) above and such Acquisition
Proposal is later consummated or effected, 

 provided however that for the purposes of this Section 19 all references to 20%
in the definition of Acquisition Proposal shall be deemed to be references to 50%. 
  

	 	(c)	If a Termination Fee Event occurs in the circumstances set out in Section 19(b)(i), the Termination Fee shall be paid within five Business Days following such Termination Fee Event. If a Termination Fee Event occurs in
the circumstances set out in Section 19(b)(ii), the Termination Fee shall be paid concurrently with such termination (and shall be a condition to the effectiveness of such termination by Vitran). If a Termination Fee Event occurs in the
circumstances set out in Section 19(b)(iii), the Termination Fee shall be paid on the consummation/closing of the Acquisition Proposal. Any Termination Fee shall be paid by Vitran to Purchaser (or as Purchaser may direct by notice in writing), by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account designated by Purchaser. 

  

	 	(d)	The obligation to make any payment required by this Section 19 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Vitran acknowledges that the agreements contained in this Section 19 are an integral part of the
Transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that without these agreements Purchaser would not enter into this Agreement, and that the amounts set out in this Section 19 represent liquidated damages which are a genuine pre-estimate of the
damages, including opportunity costs, which Purchaser will suffer or incur as a result of the event giving rise to such damages and resultant termination of this Agreement, and are not penalties. Vitran irrevocably waives any right it may have to
raise as a defence that any such liquidated damages are excessive or punitive. Purchaser agrees that the payment of the Termination Fee in the manner provided in this Section 19 is the sole remedy of Purchaser as against Vitran and the Vitran
Subsidiaries, shareholders, advisors, directors and officers in respect of the event giving rise to such payment. Nothing herein will affect the right to seek injunctive and other equitable relief in accordance with Section 21(e) to prevent
breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce compliance with the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 39 

	 	(e)	Any Termination Fee payable by Vitran hereunder will be reduced by and without duplication of any of the costs to be reimbursed to Purchaser by Vitran pursuant to Section 21(b). 

 

	20.	Termination 

  

	 	(a)	This Agreement may be terminated by: 

  

	 	(i)	the mutual written agreement of the Parties; or 

  

	 	(ii)	either Vitran or Purchaser if: 

  

	 	(1)	the Vitran Required Vote is not obtained at the Vitran Meeting in accordance with the Interim Order provided that neither Party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 20(a)(ii)1) if the failure to obtain
the Vitran Required Vote has been caused by, or is a result of, a breach by such Party of any of its representations or warranties or the failure of such Party to perform any of its covenants or agreements under this Agreement; or 

 

	 	(2)	the Effective Time does not occur on or prior to the Completion Deadline except that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 20(a)(ii)2) will not be available to a Party whose failure to fulfill
any of its obligations or breach of any of its representations and warranties under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur by the Completion Deadline. 

 

	 	(iii)	Vitran if: 

  

	 	(1)	subject to Section 15, a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement (including if Purchaser does not deposit or cause to
be deposited with the depositary sufficient funds to complete the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement as required pursuant to Section 9(k)) occurs that would cause the conditions set forth in Sections 11 or 13 not to be satisfied, and such
condition is incapable of being satisfied on or prior to the Completion Deadline; provided that any intentional breach shall be deemed to be incurable and provided further that Vitran is not then in breach of this Agreement so as to cause the
conditions set forth in Sections 11 or 12 not to be satisfied; or 

  
 40 

	 	(2)	prior to obtaining the Vitran Required Vote, the directors of Vitran approve and authorize Vitran to enter into a written definitive agreement providing for the implementation of a Superior Proposal in compliance with
this Agreement. 

  

	 	(iv)	Purchaser if: 

  

	 	(1)	subject to Section 15, a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Vitran set forth in this Agreement occurs that would cause the conditions set forth in
Sections 11 or 12 not to be satisfied, and such condition is incapable of being satisfied on or prior to the Completion Deadline; provided that any intentional breach shall be deemed to be incurable and provided further that Purchaser is not then in
breach of this Agreement so as to cause the conditions set forth in Section 11 or 13 not to be satisfied; 

  

	 	(2)	(A) the directors of Vitran shall have made a Change in Recommendation, (B) the directors of Vitran fail to publicly recommend or reaffirm the Board Recommendation within five Business Days after having been
requested in writing by Purchaser to do so (or in the event that the Vitran Meeting is scheduled to occur within such five Business Day period, prior to the Business Day immediately prior to the date of the Vitran Meeting), or (C) Vitran
breaches Sections 17, 18 or 19 in any material respect; or 

  

	 	(3)	there has occurred a Material Adverse Change. 

  

	 	(b)	The Party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 20 (other than pursuant to Section 20(a)(i)) shall give notice of such termination to the other Party, specifying in reasonable detail the basis
for such Party’s exercise of its termination right and if applicable shall comply with Section 15. 

  

	21.	Miscellaneous

 43 

	 	(f)	Amendment. This Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement may, at any time and from time to time before or after the holding of the Vitran Meeting but not later than the Effective Time, be amended by mutual written
agreement of the Parties, without further notice to or authorization on the part of the Vitran Shareholders, and any such amendment may, subject to the Interim Order and Final Order and Laws, without limitation: (i) change the time for
performance of any of the obligations or acts of the Parties; (ii) modify any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) modify any of the covenants contained in

	 	(h)	Time of the Essence. Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement. 

  

	 	(i)	Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall enure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

	 	(k)	Currency. Except as expressly indicated otherwise, all sums of money referred to in this Agreement are expressed and shall be payable in United States dollars funds. 

 

	 	(l)	Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall
in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated. 

  

	 	(m)	 Confidentiality Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that the Arrangement and the other Transactions contemplated by this Agreement are subject
to the Confidentiality Agreement, which agreement shall continue in full force and effect. For greater certainty, any discussions in connection with this Agreement shall be treated by the Parties hereto as strictly confidential and shall not

hereto 

  
 44 

	 	
with a need to know for purposes connected with the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and then only on a confidential basis and also on the basis that the Party concerned will be liable
for any breach of confidentiality by a Person to whom it makes disclosure. In the event of a conflict between the provisions hereof and any provision of the Confidentiality Agreement, the provisions hereof shall prevail. 

 

	 	(n)	Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, contains the entire agreement between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all
prior agreements and understandings with respect thereto. 

  

	 	(o)	Date for Any Action. If the date on or by which any action is required or permitted to be taken hereunder by a Party is not a Business Day, such action shall be required or permitted to be taken on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day. 

  

	 	(p)	Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall conclusively be deemed to be an original and all such counterparts collectively shall be conclusively

 but in no
case shall Vitran, Purchaser or any other Person be required to recognize such holders as holders of Common Shares after the Effective Time, and the names of such holders of Common Shares shall be deleted from the registers of holders of Common

	 	(d)	On and after the Effective Time, certificates formerly representing Common Shares, Vitran Options and Vitran DSUs prior to the Effective Time (other than Common Shares held by Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof) shall

Article 4. 

 Section 4.2 Other Vitran Securities 

At the Effective Time, each and every certificate, document, agreement or other instrument, if any, formerly representing any and all other Vitran Securities
that represent or may be exercised for, or converted into, shares or other securities of Vitran shall be and shall be deemed to be cancelled, void and of no further force and effect without any further authorization, act or formality. 

Section 4.3 Lost Certificates 
 If any certificate
which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Common Shares that were exchanged pursuant to Article 2 hereof, has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such
certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the Depositary will, subject to the terms hereof, issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, a cheque representing the amount of Consideration such Vitran Shareholder is entitled to
in accordance with the terms of the Arrangement less applicable withholdings. When authorizing such issuance in exchange for any lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the Person to whom such cheque is to be issued shall, as a condition precedent to
the issuance thereof, give a bond satisfactory to the Depositary and Purchaser in such sum as Purchaser may reasonably direct or otherwise indemnify the Depositary, Vitran and Purchaser in a manner satisfactory to them against any claim that may be
made against any of them with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed. 
 Section 4.4 Unclaimed Certificates

 Notwithstanding any of the other provisions hereof, any certificate which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Common
Shares (other than Common Shares held by Purchaser or any affiliate thereof) that has not been surrendered with all other documents and instruments required by this Article 4 on or prior to the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, shall cease to
represent a claim or interest of any kind or nature against Vitran or Purchaser and the right of such Vitran Shareholder to receive payment of Consideration therefor, shall, on the sixth anniversary of the Effective Date, be deemed to have been
surrendered and forfeited to Purchaser, together with all entitlements to dividends, distributions and any interest thereon held for such former Vitran Shareholder, for no consideration.

Purchaser and the Depositary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable to any Vitran Securityholder pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof, such amounts as Purchaser or the Depositary is required to deduct and withhold with respect to such payment under applicable Laws. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes hereof as
having been paid to the Vitran Securityholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

authority to own its property and assets and to conduct its business as currently owned and conducted. Each of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries is registered, licensed or otherwise qualified as an extra-provincial corporation in each jurisdiction
where the nature of the business or the location or character of the property and assets owned or leased by it requires it to be so registered, licensed or otherwise qualified, other than those jurisdictions where the failure to be so registered,
licensed or otherwise qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All of the outstanding shares of Vitran and the Vitran Subsidiaries are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable (and, where required, properly
registered). All of the outstanding shares of the Vitran Subsidiaries are owned directly or indirectly by Vitran or a Vitran Subsidiary. Except pursuant to restrictions on transfer contained in the articles or by-laws (or their equivalent) of the
applicable Vitran Subsidiary, the outstanding securities of the Vitran Subsidiaries are owned free and clear of all Encumbrances other than the Secured Lender Encumbrances and neither Vitran nor any of the Vitran Subsidiaries is liable to any Person
in respect thereof. Except as disclosed in the Vitran Disclosure Letter, there are no outstanding options, rights, entitlements, understandings or commitments (contingent or otherwise) regarding the right to acquire any issued or unissued securities
of Vitran or any of the Vitran Subsidiaries. Other than the Vitran Subsidiaries, Vitran does not have any investment or proposed investment in any Person which, for the financial year ended December 31, 2012 accounted for, or which, for the
financial year ending December 31, 2013 is expected to account for, more than five percent of the consolidated assets or consolidated revenues of Vitran or would otherwise be material to the business and affairs of Vitran on a consolidated
basis.
