 5.2 Committee Discretion.    Awards may be
granted by the Committee at any time and from time to time to Participants as the Committee shall determine. Except as required by this Plan, Awards granted at different times need not contain similar provisions. The Committee’s determinations
under the Plan (including without limitation, determinations of which Eligible Individuals, if any, are to receive Awards, the form, amount and timing of such Awards, the terms and provisions of such Awards and the agreements evidencing same) need
not be uniform and may be made by it selectively among individuals who receive, or are eligible to receive, Awards under the Plan. 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 GRANTS OF STOCK OPTIONS 
  
 6.1 Grant of Options.    The grant of an Option shall convey to the Participant the right to purchase Shares of Stock at an Exercise Price and for a period of time established by the

 6.4 Limitations on Exercisability.    Except as
otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or otherwise, no Option may be exercised in part or in full before the Vesting Date(s) applicable to such Option and no Option may be exercised after the Option expires by its terms
as set forth in the applicable Agreement. In the case of an Option that is exercisable in installments, installments that are exercisable and not exercised shall remain exercisable during the term of the Option. The grant of an Option shall impose
no obligation on the Optionee to exercise such Option. 
  
 6.5
Vesting.    The Committee may specify in any Agreement a vesting schedule that must be satisfied before Options become Vested, such that except as otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or

exceptions noted in this Section 6.6, no Option shall be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. During the lifetime of the Optionee, the Option shall be exercisable only by such Optionee (or his or her

parents, siblings and lineal descendants, (ii) to a trust for the benefit of the Optionee and any of the foregoing, or (iii) to any corporation or partnership controlled by the Optionee, subject to such conditions or limitations as the

assignment and shall be set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Committee may deem appropriate. 
  
 6.7 No Rights as a Stockholder.    An Optionee or a transferee of an Option shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Share
covered by his Option until he shall have become the holder of record of such Share, and he shall not be entitled to any dividends or distributions or other rights in respect of such Share for which the record date is prior to the date on which he
shall have become the holder of record thereof. 
  
 6.8 Option
Term.    The Committee shall specify the term during which any Option may be exercised, which shall be in all cases ten years or less. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan or by the Committee in the applicable Agreement

 ARTICLE VII 
  
 EXERCISES OF STOCK OPTIONS 
  

 7.1 General.    Any Option may be exercised in whole or in part at any time to the extent such Option has become Vested
during the term of such Option; provided, however, that each partial exercise shall be for whole Shares only. Each Option, or any exercisable portion thereof, may only be exercised by delivery to the Secretary or his office, in accordance with such
procedures for the exercise of Options as the Committee may establish from time to time, of (i) notice in writing signed by the Optionee (or other person then entitled to exercise such Option) that such Option, or a specified portion thereof,
is being exercised; (ii) payment in full for the purchased Shares (as specified in Section 7.3 below); (iii) such representations and documents as are necessary or advisable to effect compliance with all applicable provisions of

portion thereof; and (v) full payment to the Company of all amounts which, under federal or state law, it is required to withhold upon exercise of the Option (as specified in Section 12 below). 
  
 7.2 Certain Limitations.    Shares shall not be issued pursuant
to the exercise of an Option unless the exercise of such Option and the issuance and delivery of such Shares pursuant thereto shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed, and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such
compliance. 
  
 7.3 Payment for Shares.    Payment
for Shares purchased under an Option granted hereunder shall be made in full upon exercise of the Option (except that, in the case of an exercise arrangement approved by the Committee and described in clause (v) below, payment may be made as
soon as practicable after the exercise). The method or methods of payment of the purchase price for the Shares to be purchased upon exercise of an Option and of any amounts required by Section 12.5 shall be determined by the Committee and may
consist of (i) cash, (ii) check, (iii) promissory note, (iv) the tendering, by either actual delivery or by attestation, of whole shares of Stock, having a Fair Market Value as of the day of exercise equal to the aggregate
exercise price, or (v) through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide irrevocable written instructions to (a) a Company-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of
the purchased shares and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal, state and local employment
taxes required to be withheld by the Company by reason of such exercise, and (b) the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale. The permitted method or methods of
payment of the amounts payable upon exercise of an Option, if other than in cash, shall be set forth in the applicable agreement and may be subject to such conditions as the Committee deems appropriate. If the Option exercise price may be paid in
Shares as provided above, Shares delivered by the Optionee may be shares which were received by the Optionee upon exercise of one or more previously exercised Options, but only if such Shares have been held by the Optionee for at least six months,
or such other period of time as is required, in the opinion of the Independent Auditor, to avoid adverse financial accounting results.

Agreement are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable vesting period established by the Committee for such Awards. Conditions for repurchase (or forfeiture) may be based on continuing employment or service or achievement of pre-established
performance or other goals and objectives. 
  
 10.3 Non-transferability of
Stock Awards.    Shares represented by Stock Awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except as permitted by the Committee, until becoming Vested. Shares of Stock Awards shall be
evidenced in such manner as the Committee may determine. Any certificates issued in respect of shares of Stock Awards shall be registered in the name of the Participant and, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, deposited by the Participant,
together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company (or its designee). Upon becoming Vested, the Company (or such designee) shall deliver such certificates to the Participant or, if the Participant has died, to the Participant’s
Beneficiary. Each certificate evidencing stock subject to Stock Awards shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such Award. Any attempt to dispose of stock in contravention of such terms,
conditions and restrictions shall be ineffective. During the restriction period, the Participant shall have all the rights of a stockholder for all such Shares, including the right to vote and the right to receive dividends thereon as paid.

  
 10.4 Dividends and Dividend
Equivalents.    Subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, a Stock Award may provide the Participant with the right to receive dividend payments or dividend equivalent payments with respect to Stock subject
to the Award (both before and after the Stock subject to the Award is earned, Vested, or acquired), which payments may be either made currently or credited to an account for the Participant, and may be settled in cash or Stock, as determined by the
Committee. Any such settlements, and any such crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents or reinvestment in Stock, may be subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee shall establish, including the reinvestment of
such credited amounts in Stock equivalents. 
  
 ARTICLE XI

  
 EVENTS AFFECTING PLAN RESERVE OR PLAN AWARDS 

  
 11.1 Capital Adjustments. 
  
 11.1.a.    If the Company subdivides its outstanding
Shares into a greater number of Shares (including, without limitation, by stock dividend or stock split) or combines its outstanding shares of Stock into a smaller number of shares (by reverse stock split, reclassification or otherwise), or the
Committee determines that any stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization, split-up, spin-off, combination, exchange of shares, warrants or rights offering to purchase Shares, or other similar
corporate event (including mergers or consolidations) affects the Stock such that an adjustment is required in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Committee shall, in such
manner as it may deem equitable and appropriate, make such adjustments to any or all of (i) the number of Shares reserved for the Plan, (ii) the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards, (iii) the Exercise Price with respect to
outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, and any other adjustment that the Committee determines to be equitable; provided, however, that the number of Shares subject to any Option shall always be a whole number. The Committee may provide
for a cash payment to any Participant of a Plan Award in connection with any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 11.1. Any such adjustment shall be final and binding upon all Participants, the Company, their representatives, and all other
interested persons. 
  

 11 

 11.1.b.    In the event of a transaction involving (i) a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving company or (ii) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, provision shall be made in connection with such transaction for the assumption of Awards
theretofore granted under the Plan, or the substitution for such Awards of new Awards of the successor corporation, with appropriate adjustment as to the number and kind of Shares and the purchase price for Shares thereunder, or, in the discretion
of the Committee, the Plan and the Awards issued hereunder shall terminate on the effective date of such transaction if appropriate provision is made for payment to the Participant of an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share
multiplied by the number of Shares subject to the Award less, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, the exercise price for such Awards. 
  
 11.2 Death, Disability or Retirement of a Participant.    Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or
otherwise, if a Participant ceases to be an Employee by reason of his death, Disability, or in the case of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights and Restricted Stock Units granted to an Employee, by reason of his Retirement, then notwithstanding any
contrary waiting period, installment period or vesting schedule in any Agreement or in the Plan, each outstanding Award granted to or Share purchased by such Participant shall immediately become Vested and, in the case of an Option or Stock
Appreciation Right, exercisable in full in respect of the aggregate number of shares covered thereby. Each Option or Stock Appreciation Right may thereafter be exercised by the Participant or by Participant’s estate, as the case may be, for a
period of thirty-six months from the date of death or Termination of Service due to Disability or Retirement, as applicable. In no event, however, shall an Option or Stock Appreciation Right remain exercisable beyond the latest date on which it
could have been exercised without regard to this Section 11.2. 
  
 11.3
Termination of Service By Company.    Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or otherwise, if a Participant’s employment or service to the Company or any of its Affiliates is
terminated for reasons other than those set forth in Sections 11.2 and 11.4, all Options and Stock Appreciation Rights held by the Participant that were not Vested immediately prior to such termination shall become null and void at the time of the
termination. Any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights that were exercisable immediately prior to the termination will continue to be exercisable for a period of three months, and shall thereupon terminate. In no event, however, shall an Option
remain exercisable beyond the latest date on which it could have been exercised without regard to this Section 11.3. In addition, all rights to Shares or Restricted Stock Units as to which there remain unlapsed restrictions as of the date of
such Termination of Service shall be forfeited by such participant to the Company without payment or any consideration by the Company, and neither the Participant nor any successors, heirs, assigns or personal representatives of such Participant
shall thereafter have any further rights or interest in such Shares. Notwithstanding the above, except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the applicable Agreement or otherwise, if a Participant’s employment or service relationship with
the Company or any of its Affiliates shall be terminated by the Company or such Affiliate for Cause, then any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights held by such Participant, whether or not then Vested, shall immediately terminate. For these
purposes, Cause shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in any employment agreement to which such Participant is a party or, in the absence thereof, shall mean, unless otherwise defined in the applicable Agreement, (A) a felony conviction of
the Participant, (B) the commission by the Participant of an act of fraud or embezzlement against the Company, (C) the Participant’s willful misconduct or gross negligence materially detrimental to the Company, (D) the
Participant’s wrongful dissemination or use of confidential or proprietary information, or (E) the intentional and habitual neglect by the Participant of his duties to the Company. 
  
 11.4 Change-In-Control.    In the event of a Change-In-Control,
each outstanding Award or Share purchased pursuant to any Award shall, if not fully vested, become fully vested and, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, fully exercisable with respect to the total number of shares of Common Stock
at the time subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right and may be exercised

  

 12 

 
for any or all of those shares. For the purposes of this section 11.4, a Change-In-Control shall mean the first to occur of: 
  

	 	(i)	 	the acquisition by any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act ) of “beneficial ownership” (within the meaning of Rule
13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing thirty five percent (35%) or more of either the then outstanding Stock or the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding voting
securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i), the following transactions shall not constitute a Change in Control: (A) an acquisition by the Company, (B) an
acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company, (C) an acquisition by an entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of Stock, or (D) an acquisition by an entity pursuant to a Business Combination (as defined in subsection (iii) of this Section 10.6) that satisfies clauses (A), (B) and (C) of such subsection;

  

	 	(ii)	 	the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Company’s Directors then serving: individuals who as of the date hereof constitute the Board
(the “Initial Directors”) and any new Director (a “New Director”) whose appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least
two-thirds of the Directors then in office who either are Initial Directors or New Directors; provided, however, that a Director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest (including but not
limited to a consent solicitation) relating to the election of Directors of the Company shall not be considered a New Director; 

  

	 	(iii)	 	a reorganization, merger or consolidation or a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (a “Business Combination”), other than a
Business Combination in which (A) the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto and entitled to vote generally in the election of directors continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being
converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or parent outstanding immediately after
such Business Combination and entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; (B) no “person” (as hereinabove defined), other than the Company, an employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the
Company, or an entity resulting from such Business Combination, acquires more than twenty percent (20%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, and
(C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the entity resulting from such Business Combination were Initial Directors or New Directors at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or action of the Board,
providing for such Business Combination; or 

  

	 	(iv)	 	the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 

  
 In addition, for each Award subject to Section 409A of the Code, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of additional taxes
and penalties under Section 409A of the Code, a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have occurred under this Plan with respect to such Award only if a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the
ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company shall also be deemed to have occurred under Section 409A of the Code. 
  

 13 

 11.5 Recapture of Option or Stock Appreciation Right Profit.    In the case of an Employee
who has been granted a Stock Appreciation Right or Option and exercised such Stock Appreciation Right or Option under this Plan, who has terminated employment, and who has engaged in Harmful Conduct, the Committee may, in its sole discretion,
require such Employee to pay to the Company his Recent Option Profit. For the purposes of this Section 11.5, “Harmful Conduct” means a breach in any material respect of an agreement to not reveal confidential information regarding the
business operations of the Company or any Subsidiary, or to refrain from solicitation of the customers, suppliers or employees of the Company or any Subsidiary. “Recent Option Profit” means an amount equal to the excess of (i) the
Fair Market Value of the Stock purchased by such individual through the exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights during the fifteen month period commencing twelve months before the individual’s last day of employment and ending three
months after the last day of employment over (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price of such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. 
  
 ARTICLE XII 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 12.1 Legends.    Each certificate evidencing Shares obtained through the Plan shall bear such legends as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect or refer to any terms,
conditions or restrictions applicable to such Shares, including, without limitation, any to the effect that the Shares represented thereby (i) are subject to contractual restrictions regarding disposition, and (ii) may not be disposed of
unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel, acceptable to the Company, that such dispositions will not violate any federal or state securities laws. 
  

12.2 Rights of Company.    Nothing contained in the Plan or in any Agreement, and no action of the Company or the Committee with respect
thereto, shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate the employment of the Participant at any time, with or without Cause. The grant of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or
power of the Company to make reclassifications, reorganizations or other changes of or to its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, liquidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its business or assets. 
  
 12.3 Designation of Beneficiaries.    Each Participant who
shall be granted an Award may designate a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries and may change such designation from time to time by filing a written designation of Beneficiary or Beneficiaries with the Committee on a form to be prescribed by it, provided
that no such designation shall be effective unless so filed prior to the death of such person. 
  
 12.4 Compliance with Other Laws and Regulations.    The obligation of the Company with respect to the grant and exercise Awards hereunder shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules
and regulations and such approvals by any governmental agencies as may be required, including, without limitation, the effectiveness of any registration statement required under the Securities Act of 1933, and the rules and regulations of any
securities exchange or association on which the Stock may be listed or quoted. 
  
 12.5 Payroll Tax Withholding.    The Company’s obligation to deliver Shares under the Plan shall be subject to applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements. To the extent that the Company
is required to withhold any Federal, state or local taxes in respect of any compensation income realized by the Participant in respect of shares acquired pursuant to an Award, or in respect of any such shares of Stock becoming Vested, then the
Company shall deduct from any payments of any kind otherwise due to such Participant the aggregate amount of such Federal, state or local taxes required to be so withheld. If no such payments are due or to become due to such Participant,

  

 14 

 
or if such payments are insufficient to satisfy such Federal, state or local taxes, then such Participant will be required to pay to the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the
Company regarding payment to the Company of, the aggregate amount of any such taxes. All matters with respect to the total amount of taxes to be withheld in respect of any such compensation income shall be determined by the Committee, in its sole
discretion. Federal, state and local withholding tax due upon the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the vesting of a Stock Award may, in the discretion of the Committee, be paid in Shares already owned by the Participant or
through the withholding of shares otherwise issuable to such Participant, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine which shares shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the required minimum withholding payment.

  
 12.6 Non-Exclusivity of the Plan.    Neither the
adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem
desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options and the awarding of stock and cash otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases. 
  
 12.7 Exclusion from Benefit Computation.    By acceptance of an
Award, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement, each Participant shall be deemed to have agreed that such Award is special incentive compensation that will not be taken into account, in any manner, as salary, compensation or bonus in
determining the amount of any payment under any health and welfare, pension, retirement or other employee benefit plan, program or policy of the Company or any Subsidiary. In addition, each beneficiary of a deceased Participant shall be deemed to
have agreed that such Award will not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage, if any, provided by the Company on the life of the Participant which is payable to such beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the
Company or any Subsidiary. 
  
 12.8 Governing
Law.    The Plan shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware. 
  
 12.9 No Rights to Continued Employment.    The Plan does not constitute a contract of employment, and selection as a Participant will not
give any participating Employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Affiliate, nor any right or claim to any benefit under the Plan, unless such right or claim has specifically accrued under the terms of the Plan.

  
 12.10 Gender and Number.    Where the context
permits, words in any gender shall include the other gender, words in the singular shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular. 
  
 12.11 Unfunded Status.    Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason or participation in the Plan, acquire any right in or
title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any Affiliate whatsoever, including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets, or other property which the Company or any Affiliate, in its sole discretion may set aside in anticipation
of a liability under the Plan. A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the Stock or amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company or any Affiliate, and nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a
guarantee that the assets of the Company or any Affiliate shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person. 
  

 15 

 ARTICLE XIII 
  
 TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT 
  

13.1 Termination and Amendment of the Plan.    The Board or the Committee may at any time terminate the Plan, and may, from time to time,
suspend or discontinue the Plan or modify or amend the Plan in such respects as it shall deem advisable. 
  
 13.2 Modification.    No termination, modification or amendment of the Plan or any outstanding Award may, without the consent of the person to whom any Award shall theretofore have been
granted, adversely affect the rights of such person with respect to such outstanding Award. With the consent of the Participant and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and applicable laws, the Committee may amend outstanding Agreements
with any Participant, including, without limitation, any amendment which would (i) accelerate the time or times at which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised or any other Award would become Vested and/or (ii) extend the
scheduled expiration date of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right; provided however that no Option may be repriced, replaced, regranted through cancellation, or modified without stockholder approval (except in connection with an event described in
Sections 11.1), if the effect of such change in terms would be to reduce the exercise price for the shares underlying such Option. 
  
 13.3 Section 409A Compliance.    The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under the Plan comply with Section 409A
of the Code to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered to be in compliance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent
required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of the Plan and no payment shall be due to
the Participant under the Plan or any Agreement until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a "separation from service" from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described in the Plan that are
due within the "short term deferral period" as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent that
any Awards are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual excise tax and late interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the settlement and payment of such awards shall
instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or death, if earlier).

 This Restricted Stock Agreement (this “Agreement”) is executed and delivered as of the Grant Date by and between Knight Capital Group, Inc.
(the “Company”) and the Grantee. The Grantee and the Company hereby agree as follows: 
  

	1.	 	The Company, pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2009 Inducement Award Plan (the “Plan”), which is incorporated herein by reference, and subject to the terms and
conditions thereof, hereby grants to the Grantee the above mentioned Shares of Restricted Stock in exchange for a payment of $0.01 (the “Per Share Price”) which represents payment of the par value of the Shares of Restricted Stock.

  

	2.	 	From the Grant Date until the date on which the restrictions applicable to the Shares shall lapse (each such period, a “Restricted Period”) as set forth above, the
Grantee may not sell, assign, transfer, donate, pledge or otherwise dispose of Shares subject to a Restricted Period. Each certificate representing Restricted Stock shall bear the following legend: 

  
 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO
CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER AND RIGHTS OF REPURCHASE AS SET FORTH IN AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE COMPANY. 
  
 The Grantee shall be entitled to have such legend removed from such certificate when all restrictions with respect to the
Shares of Restricted Stock covered thereby have lapsed. All restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock shall lapse upon the expiration of the Restricted Period applicable to such Shares (as indicated above). 

	3.	 	Except as otherwise provided in Grantee’s Offer Letter of Employment Agreement, as applicable, with an affiliated entity of the Company, if the Grantee's employment with, or
provision of services to, the Company shall terminate for any reason other than such Grantee's death or disability while Shares are subject to a Restricted Period, all Shares held by the Grantee still subject to a Restricted Period shall be
forfeited upon such termination and the Per Share Price paid with respect to such Shares shall be refunded to the Grantee. In the event of the Grantee's death or disability, the restrictions and forfeiture conditions applicable to the Restricted
Stock shall lapse, and the Restricted Stock shall be deemed fully vested in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 

  

	4.	 	In the event of a Change-In-Control (as defined in the Plan), the restrictions and forfeiture conditions applicable to the Restricted Stock shall lapse, and the Restricted Stock
shall be deemed fully vested in accordance with the terms of the Plan. 

  

	5.	 	During the Restricted Period, the Grantee shall have the right to vote Shares of Restricted Stock and to receive any dividends or distributions paid on such Shares, which
dividends or distributions shall be subject to such restrictions as are deemed appropriate by the Committee. 

  

	6.	 	The Shares shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares or other change in capitalization with a similar
substantive effect upon the Plan or the Restricted Stock. The Committee shall have the power and sole discretion to determine the nature and amount of the adjustment to be made, if any. Any adjustment so made shall be final and binding.

  

	7.	 	The Company shall withhold all applicable taxes required by law from all amounts paid in respect of the Shares upon the vesting of, or lapse of restrictions on, any or all of the
Shares. The Grantee may satisfy the withholding obligation by paying the amount of any taxes in cash or, with the approval of the Committee, shares of stock may be deducted from the payment to satisfy the obligation in full or in part. The amount of
the withholding and the number of shares to be deducted shall be determined by the Committee with reference to the Fair Market Value of the stock when the withholding is required to be made. 

  

	8.	 	Except with the consent of the Committee, no Shares shall be assignable or transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution while such shares remain subject
to a Restricted Period. 

  

	9.	 	Nothing herein shall obligate the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company to continue the Grantee’s employment for any particular period or on any particular
basis of compensation. 

  

	10.	 	The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares under this Agreement is specifically subject to all provisions of the Plan and all applicable laws, rules, regulations and
governmental and stockholder approvals. 

  

	11.	 	Any notice by the Grantee to the Company hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given only upon receipt thereof by the Company at its principal offices. Any
notice by the Company to the Grantee shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given if mailed to the Grantee at the address last specified to the Company by the Grantee. 

  

	12.	 	The grant of Shares herein is not enforceable until this Agreement has been signed by the Grantee and the Company. By executing this Agreement, the Grantee shall be deemed to
have accepted and consented to any action taken under the Plan by the Committee, the Board or its delegates.

	13.	 	No change or modification of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by the parties hereto. 

  

	14.	 	The validity and construction of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware. 

  

	15.	 	Any capitalized term, to the extent not defined herein, shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Plan 

  

	16.	 	This Agreement, together with the Plan, sets forth all of the promises, agreements, conditions, understandings, warranties and representations between the parties hereto
regarding the Shares, and there are no promises, agreements, conditions, understandings, warranties or representations, oral or written, express or implied, between them regarding the Shares other than as set forth herein or therein. This Agreement
is made under and subject to the provisions of the Plan, and all of the provisions of the Plan are also provisions of this Agreement. If there is a difference or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the
provisions of the Plan will govern. 

  

	17.	 	The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) to the
extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement shall be interpreted and be administered to be in compliance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in
order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Grantee shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of this Agreement and no payment shall be due to the
Grantee under this Section 3 of this Agreement until the Grantee would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described in this
Plan that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement or the Plan, to the extent that any Awards are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual excise tax and late interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the
settlement and payment of such Awards shall instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or death, if earlier). 

  
 By signing this Agreement, the Grantee accepts and agrees to all of the foregoing terms
and provisions and to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan incorporated herein by reference and confirms that he has received a copy of the Plan.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed by a duly authorized
representative and the Grantee has hereunto set his hand as of the Grant Date.
