 Exhibit 10.9 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
 New Executive Form as of February 15, 2007 
 Agreement, effective as of the             day of
            , 200_ (the “Date of Grant”) between TradeStation Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), and
                    (“Optionee”). 
  

	 	1.	Grant of Options 

 The Company
grants to Optionee, on the terms and conditions set forth below and subject to the terms and conditions of the TradeStation Group, Inc. Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”), options (the “Options”) to purchase up to
            shares (individually a “Share” and collectively the “Shares”) of TradeStation Group, Inc. common stock (the “Common Stock”), par value $.01
per share, for a price of $            per Share (the “Option Price”), subject to adjustment as provided in Paragraph 3 below. All of the Options have been, and hereby are,
designated as Incentive Stock Options (as defined in the Plan). 
  

	 	2.	Terms and Conditions of Options 

 (a) Term of Options 
 Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation,
subparagraph (c) below), the Options, to the extent vested pursuant to subparagraph (g) below, may be exercised by Optionee in whole or in part from time to time during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the
tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant. In no event shall any of the Options granted under this Agreement be exercisable upon or after the expiration of 10 years from the Date of Grant. 
 (b) Non-transferability of Options 
 The Options shall not be transferable by Optionee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised during Optionee’s lifetime only by Optionee. If any Options are exercised after
Optionee’s death, the Company may require evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the appointment and qualification of Optionee’s personal representatives and their authority and of the right of any heir or distributee to exercise such
Options. 
 (c) Termination of Employment 
 If Optionee’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason, Optionee shall have the right to exercise the then unexercised
portion of the Options which have vested as of the date of termination of employment within the applicable time period following termination, if any, as described below. Upon the expiration of the applicable time period, if any, all of the Options
then unexercised, whether or not vested, shall automatically and without notice terminate and become null and void. Such time periods (if any), and the circumstances of termination under which they respectively apply, are as follows: 

 (i) In the event that Optionee resigns or Optionee’s employment is terminated by the
Company (other than a termination described in subparagraph (ii), (iii) or (iv) below), the Options then vested in accordance with subparagraph (g) may be exercised, subject to subparagraph (v) below, during the period commencing
on the date of resignation or termination of employment and ending on the 90th consecutive day thereafter; provided that, if Optionee shall die during such 90-day period, Optionee’s right to exercise the unexercised portion of the Options
vested at the date of resignation or termination of employment shall be determined under the provisions of subparagraph (iii) below; and provided further, that, if Optionee is, at the time of such resignation or termination, a director of the
Company or an officer of the Company subject to liability under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, such period shall be the period commencing on the date of resignation or
termination and ending on the first anniversary thereof. 
 (ii) In the event that Optionee’s employment is terminated by
the Company due solely to Optionee’s permanent disability, the Options then vested in accordance with subparagraph (g) may be exercised, subject to subparagraph (v) below, during the period commencing on the date of termination of
employment and ending on the first anniversary thereof. 
 (iii) In the event of Optionee’s death either during
Optionee’s employment by the Company or during the 90-day period following the date of Optionee’s resignation or termination of such employment by the Company pursuant to subparagraph (c)(i), the Options then vested in accordance with
subparagraph (g) may be exercised, subject to subparagraph (v) below, during the period commencing on the date of Optionee’s death and ending on the first anniversary thereof. 
 (iv) In the event of termination of Optionee’s employment for cause (as defined below), all Options, vested and unvested, shall
expire at the date and time of termination of Optionee’s employment by the Company for cause. For purposes hereof, “cause” means the following acts or conduct on the part of Optionee: fraud upon the Company; dishonesty or gross
neglect the effect of which is, or is likely to be, materially adverse to the Company, its business or reputation; commission of a felony; abandonment of duties; wilful acts or omissions resulting in material governmental sanctions against Optionee
or the Company (unless such acts or omissions were authorized by, or taken or made with the knowledge of, the Company’s CEO, President or Board of Directors); a wilful breach by Optionee of any of Optionee’s nondisclosure, noncompetition
or other covenants or obligations set forth in the Agreement Regarding Employment (the “Covenant Agreement”) previously entered into by and between Optionee and the Company; or a breach by Optionee (other than a wilful breach) of any of
Optionee’s nondisclosure, noncompetition or other covenants or obligations set forth in the Covenant Agreement which is not cured within 30 days after Optionee receives notice thereof. 
 (v) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, in the event that following a termination of Optionee’s employment for a
reason other than cause the Company discovers (and the Committee (as defined in the Plan) determines) that acts or conduct on the part of Optionee have occurred constituting cause, the provisions of subparagraph (iv) above shall then
automatically apply and Optionee shall have no right to exercise any then unexercised Options, even if vested. For purposes of this paragraph, Options shall not be deemed exercised until a share certificate for the Shares relating to the Options
exercised has been issued and delivered to Optionee. The Company shall notify Optionee promptly in the event that it discovers a cause event after termination of employment and the Committee (as defined in the Plan) has determined that subparagraph
(iv) above shall apply, but giving such notice is not a condition to the Company’s right to exercise its rights under this paragraph. 
  

 2 

 Neither this Agreement nor any Option granted hereunder shall confer on Optionee any
right to continue in the Company’s employ, or limit in any respect the Company’s right (in the absence of a specific written agreement to the contrary) to terminate Optionee’s employment at any time with or without cause. 

In all events, upon any termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company or upon Optionee’s death, whichever is first to
occur (but subject to the penultimate sentence of subparagraph (g)), the unvested portion, if any, of any then unexercised Options shall automatically and without notice terminate and become null and void. 
 (d) Exercise of Options 
 The Options may be exercised only by written notice to the Company at its principal business office or such other office as the Company may from time to time direct, which shall specify the number of optioned Shares
being purchased. Any notice of exercise of Options shall be accompanied by payment of the full purchase price for the Shares being purchased: (i) by check payable to the Company; or (ii) with the prior consent of the Company, by tendering
previously acquired shares of Common Stock having a fair market value (determined as of the date such Options are exercised) equal to all of the purchase price; or (iii) with the prior consent of the Company, by any combination of (i) and
(ii), provided that any payment involving the delivery of Common Stock does not result in a charge to earnings for financial accounting purposes, as determined by the Committee (as defined in the Plan). Subject to the foregoing proviso, and with the
prior consent of the Company, if shares of the Common Stock are readily tradeable on a national securities exchange or other market system at the time of exercise, payment may also be made by delivering a properly executed exercise notice to the
Company together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the exercise price. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver the Shares being purchased
pursuant to the exercise of any Options, in whole or in part, until the aforesaid payment in full of the purchase price therefor is received by the Company. 
 (e) Issuance of Shares 
 If, at any time, the Company, in its reasonable judgment, or on advice of counsel, shall determine that the listing, registration or qualification of the Shares covered by the Options on any securities exchange or
under any state or federal law is necessary as a condition of, or in connection with, the purchase or delivery of Shares hereunder, and that no exemptions are applicable, the delivery of any or all Shares pursuant to exercise of the Options may be
withheld unless and until such listing, registration or qualification shall have been effected. Optionee agrees to comply with any and all legal requirements relating to Optionee’s resale or other disposition of any Shares acquired under this
Agreement. The Company may require, as a condition of exercise of any Options, that Optionee represent, in writing, that the Shares received upon exercise of the Options are being acquired for investment and not with a view to distribution, and that
Optionee agree that the Shares will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement unless the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such disposition is exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company may endorse on certificates representing Shares issued upon the exercise of Options such legends referring to the foregoing representations or any applicable restrictions on
resale as the Company, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate. 
  

 3 

 (f) Rights as a Shareholder 
 Optionee shall acquire none of the rights of a shareholder of the Company under this Agreement unless and until certificates for Shares
are issued to Optionee upon the exercise of Options. 
 (g) Vesting 
 The right to exercise the Options shall vest 20% on each anniversary of the Date of Grant
(            shares on each such anniversary), so that, subject to the provisions for earlier termination herein set forth, the right to exercise the Options shall be 100% vested on
the fifth anniversary of the Date of Grant. Notwithstanding such vesting schedule, upon a Change In Control (as such term is hereinafter defined), or upon the termination of Optionee’s employment due to death or permanent disability, the right
to exercise the Options shall automatically become 100% vested. In addition, upon termination of Optionee’s employment for any other reason, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, accelerate, in whole or in part, the vesting of
any Options which are unvested at the date of termination of employment. 
 (h) Change in Control 
 In the event of a Change in Control, the Company may require Optionee to exercise all of the Options effective immediately prior to the
consummation of the Change in Control. In such event, the Company and Optionee shall cooperate to effectuate the exercise of the Options immediately prior to the consummation of the Change in Control so that the Shares issuable upon such exercise
are recognized as issued and outstanding prior to such consummation. 
 (i) Certain Definitions 
 For purposes hereof, the following capitalized terms have the respective meanings ascribed to them below: 
 A “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (i) any person or entity unaffiliated with the Company
is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding
securities; (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation or other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto
continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving
entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected to implement a reorganization or recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no person or entity
acquires more than fifty (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities shall not constitute a Change in Control of the Company; or (iii) the consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company,
directly or indirectly, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or accounts other than (x) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the 

  

 4 

 
Company to a subsidiary of the Company or to a person or persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) or more of
the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company at the time of the sale or (y) pursuant to a spin-off type transaction, directly or indirectly, of such assets to the stockholders of the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred, with respect to Optionee, if Optionee is part of a
purchasing group which consummates a transaction causing a Change in Control. Optionee shall be deemed “part of a purchasing group” for purposes of the preceding sentence if Optionee is a direct or indirect equity participant in the
purchasing company or group; provided however, that Optionee shall not be considered part of a purchasing group if the Optionee owns, directly or indirectly, 1% or less of the outstanding securities of the purchasing company or group. 
 “Fair Market Value” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Plan. 
  

	 	3.	Adjustment Upon Changes in Capitalization, etc. 

 In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or recapitalization which changes the character or amount of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock while any portion of any Options granted
pursuant to this Agreement are outstanding but unexercised, the Company shall make such adjustments in the character and number of Shares subject to such Options and in the Option Price (per Share) as shall be equitable and appropriate in order to
make such Options, as nearly as may be practicable, equivalent to such Options immediately prior to such change; provided, however, that no such adjustment shall give Optionee any additional benefits under this Agreement; and
provided further, if any such adjustment is made by reason of a transaction described in section 424(a) of the Code (as defined in the Plan), it shall be made so as to conform to the requirements of that section and the regulations
thereunder. 
 If any transaction (other than a change specified in the preceding paragraph) described in section 424(a) of
the Code affects the Company’s Common Stock subject to any unexercised Option granted hereunder (hereinafter for purposes of this Paragraph 3 referred to as the “old option”), the Board of Directors of the Company or any surviving or
acquiring corporation may take such action as it deems appropriate, and in conformity with the requirements of that section and the regulations thereunder, to substitute a new option for the old option, in order to make the new option, as nearly as
may be practicable, equivalent to the old option, or to assume the old option. 
 If any such change or transaction shall
occur, the number and kind of Shares to be issued upon the exercise of any Options shall be adjusted to give effect thereto. 
  

	 	4.	Application of Funds 

 The proceeds
received by the Company from the sale of Shares subject to Options may be commingled with any other corporate funds and used for any corporate purpose. 
  

 5 

	 	5.	General 

 (a) Any communication in
connection with this Agreement shall be deemed duly given when delivered in person (including by courier service) or mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to Optionee at Optionee’s address listed on the signature
page hereof or such other address of which Optionee shall have advised the Company by similar notice; and to the Company at the Company’s then executive offices. 
 (b) This Agreement sets forth the parties’ final and entire agreement with respect to its subject matter, may not be changed or
terminated orally and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of Optionee, and Optionee’s heirs, distributees and personal and legal
representatives, and the Company and its successors and assigns. 
 (c) Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each
term stated in either the singular or the plural shall include the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, the feminine or the neuter gender shall include the masculine, feminine and neuter. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

 6Restricted Stock Agreement

 Exhibit 10.10 
 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 
 Non-transferable 
 Grant to: 
 SALOMON SREDNI 

(“Grantee”) 
 by

 TradeStation Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), 
 of 
 152,439 shares of its common stock, $0.01 par value, 
 pursuant to and subject to the provisions of the TradeStation Group, Inc. Amended and Restated Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and to the terms and
conditions of this non-transferable Restricted Stock Agreement (this “Agreement”), effective as of the 20th day of February, 2007 (the “Effective Date”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall
have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan. 
 RECITALS 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to issue to Grantee, as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, ONE HUNDRED FIFTY TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE
(152,439) shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”); and 
 WHEREAS, Grantee desires to accept the issuance of the Shares subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and is eligible to receive the Shares. 
 AGREEMENT 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Grantee’s agreement to provide future services
to the Company and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Grantee hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Grant of Shares. The Company hereby grants the Shares to Grantee, subject to all of the restrictions and the other terms and conditions set
forth in the Plan and in this Agreement. Unless sooner vested in accordance with Section 3 hereof, and provided that Grantee is then still employed by the Company on the respective dates indicated below, the restrictions imposed under
Section 2 hereof on the Shares will expire and the Restricted Shares (as hereinafter defined) shall vest as to the number of the Restricted Shares as set forth below on each of the respective dates as set forth below: 

					
	 Number of Shares
	  	 Date
	  	Cumulative Percentage
	 30,488
	  	February 20, 2008	  	20%
	 30,488
	  	February 20, 2009	  	40%
	 30,488
	  	February 20, 2010	  	60%
	 30,488
	  	February 20, 2011	  	80%
	 30,487
	  	February 20, 2012	  	100%

 Upon each of the foregoing dates, the number of Restricted Shares indicated above shall cease to
be subject to the restrictions described herein. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “vesting” shall have the effect of converting Restricted Shares into unrestricted Shares. 
 2. Restrictions. The Shares are subject to each of the restrictions set forth in this Section 2 and “Restricted Shares” mean
those Shares that are subject to the restrictions imposed hereunder which have not then expired or terminated. Except as provided in Section 12(a) of the Plan, Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise encumbered; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantee may transfer all or part of the Restricted Shares to one or more trusts for the benefit of Grantee’s immediate family members (which for
purposes hereof shall be limited to the Grantee’s children, grandchildren and spouse) or partnerships in which such immediate family members and/or trusts are the only partners; provided that any such transfer of Restricted Shares shall remain
subject to all of the restrictions and other terms and conditions hereof and the transferee shall execute any and all documents required by the Company to confirm the foregoing. If Grantee’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason
other than as set forth in paragraphs (b) or (c) of Section 3 hereof, then Grantee shall forfeit, without the payment or providing of any consideration or other amounts of any kind whatsoever to Grantee, all of Grantee’s right,
title and interest in and to the Restricted Shares as of and after the date of employment termination and such Restricted Shares shall automatically revert to the Company immediately following the event of forfeiture. The restrictions imposed under
this Section 2 shall apply to all shares of the Company’s Common Stock or other securities issued with respect to Restricted Shares hereunder in connection with any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend,
stock split, business combination or other change in corporate structure directly or indirectly in any way affecting the Common Stock of the Company. 
 3. Expiration and Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under Section 2 will expire on the earliest to occur of the following (the period prior to such expiration being referred to herein
as the “Restricted Period”): 
 (a) As to the number of Restricted Shares as and to the extent indicated on the respective
dates specified in Section 1 hereinabove; provided, however, that Grantee on those respective dates is then still employed by the Company; 
 (b) As to all of the unvested Restricted Shares, on the date of termination of Grantee’s employment by reason of death or “Disability.” For the purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean
permanent disability as determined by the Compensation Committee under the Plan, in its sole and absolute discretion; or 
 (c) As to all of
the unvested Restricted Shares, upon the occurrence of a “Change in Control” (as such term is defined below). For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:
(i) any person or entity unaffiliated with the Company is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 

  

 2 

 
as amended from time to time), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty (50%) of the combined voting power of
the Company’s then outstanding securities; (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation or other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company
outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting
securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, provided, however, that a merger or consolidation effected to implement a reorganization or recapitalization of the Company (or similar
transaction) in which no person or entity acquires more than fifty (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities shall not constitute a Change in Control of the Company; or (iii) the consummation of
the sale or disposition by the Company directly or indirectly, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or accounts other than (x) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to a subsidiary
of the Company or to a person or persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, at least fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company at the time of the sale or
(y) pursuant to a spin-off type transaction, directly or indirectly, of such assets to the stockholders of the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred, with respect to Grantee, if Grantee is part of a purchasing group which consummates a transaction causing a Change in Control. Grantee shall be
deemed “part of a purchasing group” for purposes of the preceding sentence if Grantee is a direct or indirect equity participant in the purchasing company or group; provided however, that Grantee shall not be considered part of a
purchasing group if Grantee owns, directly or indirectly, 1% or less of the outstanding securities of the purchasing company or group. 
 4.
Delivery of Shares. 
 (a) Delivery to Grantee. The Restricted Shares will be issued to Grantee as of the Grant Date and will
be held by Grantee during the Restricted Period in certificated form. Such certificate or certificates for the Shares shall bear a legend under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as and in such form as required by the
Company and during the Restricted Period shall bear the following legend in substantially the following form (in addition to any additional legends required under applicable state securities laws): 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN FORFEITURE AND RETRANSFER OBLIGATIONS, RESTRICTIONS ON
TRANSFER AND OTHER AGREEMENTS SET FORTH IN A RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT (THE “AGREEMENT”) BETWEEN TRADESTATION GROUP, INC., A FLORIDA CORPORATION, AND SALOMON SREDNI EFFECTIVE AS OF FEBRUARY 20, 2007, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED
AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF ANY KIND IN CONFLICT WITH, OR IN DEROGATION OF THE AGREEMENT, IS VOID AND OF NO LEGAL FORCE, EFFECT OR VALIDITY WHATSOEVER.” 
 Stock certificates for the Shares, without the above legend, shall be delivered to Grantee or Grantee’s designee upon request of Grantee after the
expiration of the Restricted Period (or from time to time with respect and up to that portion of the Restricted Shares which is deemed to have vested at such time and becomes unrestricted Shares hereunder), but delivery may be postponed for such
period 

  

 3 

 
as may be required for the Company with reasonable diligence to comply, if deemed advisable by the Company, with registration requirements under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, listing requirements under the rules of any stock exchange, and requirements under any other law or regulation applicable to the issuance or transfer of the Shares. 
 (b) Delivery to Company Upon Forfeiture. As set forth above, all Restricted Shares forfeited pursuant to the terms hereof shall be automatically
transferred to the Company by Grantee or the holder thereof. In furtherance of the foregoing and immediately upon the request of the Company, Grantee shall deliver and/or execute all certificates and other instruments necessary to effectuate the
transfer of the Restricted Shares to the Company, including, without limitation, a stock power, all in such form and substance as acceptable to the Company in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion. 
 5. Voting and Dividend Rights. Grantee, as beneficial owner of the Restricted Shares, shall have full voting rights with respect to the Shares
during and after the Restricted Period. In addition, Grantee shall, during and after the Restricted Period, be entitled to receive any dividends on the Shares; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Restricted Shares
are forfeited for any reason, Grantee shall, within ten (10) days of such forfeiture, repay to the Company an amount equal to the dividends previously paid on those Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
if Grantee forfeits any rights to Restricted Shares he may have under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2, Section 4(b) or otherwise, Grantee shall no longer have any rights as a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Shares or
any interest therein so forfeited and Grantee shall no longer be entitled to vote or receive dividends on the Restricted Shares so forfeited. In the event that for any reason Grantee shall have received dividends upon such Restricted Shares after
such forfeiture, Grantee shall immediately repay to the Company an amount equal to such dividends. 
 6. Changes in Capital Structure.
The provisions of the Plan shall apply in the case of a change in the capital structure of the Company. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock (stock-split), a declaration of a dividend payable
in Common Stock, or a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Common Stock into a lesser number of shares, the Shares then subject to this Agreement shall automatically be adjusted proportionately. 
 7. No Right of Continued Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate
Grantee’s employment at any time, or confer upon Grantee any right to continue in the employ of the Company. 
 8. Payment of
Taxes. Upon issuance of the Shares hereunder, Grantee may make an election to be taxed upon such award under Section 83(b) of the Code. To effect such election, Grantee may file an appropriate election with Internal Revenue Service within
thirty (30) days after award of the Shares and otherwise in accordance with applicable Treasury Regulations. In all events, Grantee will, no later than the date as of which any amount related to any of the Shares first becomes includable in
Grantee’s gross income for federal income tax purposes, notify the Company of that fact and pay to the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company, regarding payment of, any federal, state and local taxes of any kind
required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount. The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such notification and payment or arrangements, and the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, have the
right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind hereafter due, owing or payable to Grantee. 
  

 4 

 9. Amendment. The Company may amend, modify or terminate this Agreement without approval of
Grantee; provided, however, that such amendment, modification or termination shall not, without Grantee’s consent, reduce or diminish the value of this award with respect to any current, future or potential benefit that exists on the date of
such amendment or termination. 
 10. Plan Controls. The terms contained in the Plan are incorporated into and made a part of this
Agreement and this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall be
controlling and determinative. 
 11. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Grantee
and Grantee’s heirs, personal and legal representatives and permitted assigns and to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns. 
 12. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been included. 
 13. Notice. For the purpose of this Agreement, notices and
all other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given (i) when faxed (with a written confirmation of receipt) or actually delivered, or (ii) three (3) business days
after being mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to the respective addresses set forth on the initial page of this Agreement, provided that all notices to the Company shall be
directed to the attention of the General Counsel of the Company, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing in accordance herewith. Notice of change of address shall be effective only upon receipt. 

14. Governing Law. This Agreement sets forth the final and entire agreement with respect to its subject matter and shall be governed and
construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to the choice of law principles thereof. 
 15.
Pronouns. Wherever from the context it appears appropriate, each term stated in either the singular or the plural shall include the singular and the plural, and pronouns stated in the masculine, the feminine or the neuter gender shall include
the masculine, feminine and neuter.
