“Agreement”) is entered into as of November 10, 2004, by and between INDEX DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Jonathan Steinberg (the “Optionholder”). 

WHEREAS, on November 3, 2004 (the “Grant Date”), the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”), in
consideration for service as a director of the Company, authorized the grant to the Optionholder of an option (the “Option”) to purchase an aggregate of 835,000 shares of the authorized but unissued Common Stock of the Company, $.01 par
value (the “Common Stock”); and 
 WHEREAS, the desires to acquire the Option upon the terms and conditions set forth
in this Agreement; 
 IT IS AGREED: 
 1. Grant of Stock Option. The Company hereby grants the Optionholder the Option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of 835,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) on the
terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 2. Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Option represented hereby is not intended to
be an Option which qualifies as an “Incentive Stock Option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
 3. Exercise Price. The exercise price of the Option is $0.16 per share, subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided. The exercise price is at least 100% of the Fair Market Value (defined below)
of the Company’s Common Stock as of the date of this Agreement. 
 4. Exercisability. This Option shall be
exercisable as to 417,500 shares on the Grant Date and as to an additional 417,500 shares on November 10, 2005. After a portion of the Option becomes exercisable, such portion shall remain exercisable, except as otherwise provided herein, until
the close of business on November 9, 2014 (“Exercise Period”). 
 5. Effect of Termination of
Directorship. 
 5.1. Termination Due to any Reason Other than Removal For Cause. If the
Optionholder’s status as a Director of the Company terminates due to any reason other than removal for cause, the portion of the Option, if any, that was exercisable as of the date of termination may thereafter be exercised by the

  
 1 

 
Optionholder until the expiration of the Exercise Period. The portion of the Option, if any, that was not exercisable as of the date of termination shall immediately expire upon termination.

 5.2. Termination Due to Removal for Cause. If the Optionholder’s status as a Director of the
Company terminates by reason of removal for cause, then (a) the Option shall immediately terminate and (b) the Company may require the Optionholder to return to the Company the economic value of any Option Shares purchased hereunder by the
Optionholder within the six (6) month period prior to the date of such removal. In such event, the Optionholder hereby agrees to remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Option Shares
on the date of such removal (or the sales price of such Shares if the Option Shares were sold during such six (6) month period) and the Exercise Price of such Shares, net of any taxes paid by the Optionholder in connection with the vesting,
exercise or sale of the Option (or Option Shares). For purposes of this Agreement, “cause” shall be limited to: (i) any material breach of fiduciary duty by the Optionholder, but only if such material breach shall not have been
corrected within ten business days of his receipt of written notice from the Company of the occurrence of such material breach; (ii) being convicted of, or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to a felony, misdemeanor (other than, if applicable,
minor traffic violations) or crime of moral turpitude; or (iii) the commission by the Optionholder of an act of dishonesty, fraud or embezzlement against the Company. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Fair Market Value” of the
Option Shares on a given date (the “Date of Determination”) shall mean shall be deemed to be the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such date, or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such day, the average of the last
reported sale prices for the immediately preceding three trading days, in either case as officially reported by the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading, or, if the Common Stock is not listed or
admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or if any such exchange on which the Common Stock is listed is not its principal trading market, the last reported sale price as furnished by the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. (“NASD”) through the Nasdaq National Market or SmallCap Market, or, if applicable, the OTC Bulletin Board or the residual over-the-counter market, or if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any of the foregoing
markets, or similar organization, as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, based on the best information available to it. Nothing in the this Agreement shall limit in an manner the power of the Board or the
Company’s stockholders to remove Director at any time, for any reason or no reason, provided that such removal is effected in accordance with applicable law, the Company’s then-current certificate of incorporation, as amended and the
Company’s then-current by-laws.

 6. Withholding Tax. Not later than the date as of which an amount first becomes
includible in the gross income of the Optionholder for Federal income tax purposes with respect to the Option, the Optionholder shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any Federal, state
and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be conditional upon such payment or
arrangements with the Company and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Optionholder from the Company. 

7. Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, consolidation, dividend (other than
cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, or other change in corporate structure affecting the number of issued shares of Common Stock, the Company shall proportionally adjust the number and kind of Option Shares and the exercise price of
the Option in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the Optionholder’s proportionate interest in the Company and the Optionholder’s rights hereunder, provided that the number of Option Shares shall always be a whole number.

 8. Method of Exercise. 
 8.1. Notice to the Company. The Option shall be exercised in whole or in part by written notice in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A directed to the Company at its principal
place of business accompanied by full payment as hereinafter provided of the exercise price for the number of Option Shares specified in the notice. 
 8.2. Delivery of Option Shares. The Company shall deliver a certificate for the Option Shares to the Optionholder as soon as practicable after payment therefor. 

8.3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Optionholder shall make pay for the Option Shares by any one or more of the
following methods set forth in this Section 8.3. 
 8.3.1. Cash Payment. The Optionholder shall make
cash payments by wire transfer, certified check or bank check, in each case payable to the order of the Company; the Company shall not be required to deliver certificates for Option Shares until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and
available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof. 
 8.3.2. Payment through Bank or Broker. The
Optionholder may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company with a bank or a broker who is member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. to either (a) sell on the exercise date a sufficient number of the Option Shares being
purchased so that the net proceeds of the sale transaction will at least equal the Exercise Price multiplied by the 

  
 3 

 
number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes and pursuant to which the bank or broker undertakes irrevocably to deliver
the full Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes to the Company on a date satisfactory to the Company, but no later than the date on
which the sale transaction would settle in the ordinary course of business or (b) obtain a “margin commitment” from the bank or broker pursuant to which the bank or broker undertakes irrevocably to deliver the full Exercise Price
multiplied by the number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes to the Company, immediately upon receipt of the Option Shares. 

8.3.3. Cashless Payment. 
 (a) The Optionholder may, in his or her sole discretion, use shares of Common Stock of the Company that were owned by the Optionholder for more than six (6) months (and which have been paid for
within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) and, if such shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such
shares), or that were obtained by the Optionholder in the open public market, to pay the purchase price for the Option Shares by delivery of one or more stock certificates in negotiable form which are effective to transfer good and valid title
thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances. Shares of Common Stock used for this purpose shall be valued at the Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 5.2). 

(b) At the election of the Optionholder, the Exercise Price for any or all of the Option Shares to be acquired may be paid
by the surrender of any unexercised portion of the Option having a “value” equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares to be purchased. The “value” of a surrendered portion of the Option means, as of the
exercise date, an amount equal to the excess of the total Fair Market Value (as defined in Section 5.2) of the shares of Common Stock underlying the surrendered portion of the Option over the total Exercise Price of such shares of Common Stock
underlying the surrendered portion of the Option. 
 8.3.4. Payment of Withholding Tax. Any required
withholding tax may be paid in cash, with Common Stock or by the surrender of an unexercised portion of the Option in accordance with Sections 8.3.1., 8.3.2 and 8.3.3. 

8.3.5. Exchange Act Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to reject payment
in the form of Common Stock if in the opinion of counsel for the Company, (i) it could result in an event of “recapture” under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or
(ii) such shares of Common Stock may not be sold or transferred to the Company; or (iii) such transfer could create legal difficulties for the Company.

 9. Market Standoff Agreement. The Optionholder agrees that, at any time that the
Optionholder would be deemed to be an “affiliate” (as defined under the Exchange Act) of the Company, in connection with next firm commitment underwritten public of the Company’s securities following the date of this Agreement that
will raise at least $15,000,000 in gross proceeds, upon the request of the Company or the underwriters managing such public offering of the Company’s securities, the Optionholder will not sell or otherwise dispose of any Option Shares
(including without limitation sale of Option Shares in connection with the exercise method set forth in Section 8.3.2., but expressly excluding the use of Common Stock in connection with the exercise method set forth in Section 8.3.3.) or
any other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time from the effective date of such registration not exceeding 180 days and otherwise as the Company
or the underwriters may specify for the Company’s director shareholders generally; provided, that all executive officers, directors and holders of more than 5% of the Company’s then outstanding capital stock agree to the same restriction.
The Optionholder understands and agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the market standoff agreement, the Company may issue appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent.

ISO, and if the Optionholder sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Option Shares acquired pursuant to a whole or partial exercise the Option prior to the later of (a) the second (2nd) anniversary of the Grant Date, or (b) the first (1st) anniversary of the date of exercise of such Option Shares, the
Optionholder shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such sale or disposition. The Optionholder acknowledges and agrees that the Optionholder may be subject to income and other tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income
recognized by the Optionholder from any such sale or disposition, by payment in cash (or in shares of Common Stock, to the extent permissible under Section 8.3.4.) or out of the current wages or other earnings payable to the Optionholder. The
Optionholder hereby authorizes his/her broker(s) to provide the Company, promptly at the Company’s request, with any information concerning the Option Shares, now or previously in the Optionholder’s account(s) with such broker(s), as the
Company may request. The Optionholder agrees that this authorization may not be revoked or modified in any manner except pursuant to a writing signed by both the Optionholder and the Company. 

11. Nonassignability. The Option shall not be assignable or transferable without the consent of the Company and unless the Company
shall have been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of such other evidence as the Company may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the terms and conditions of
the Option. 
 12. Required Holding Period. This Option and any Common Stock acquired upon its exercise may not be sold,
assigned or otherwise transferred (other than to the Optionholder) prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the Grant Date.

17.9. No Duty to Disclose. The Optionholder acknowledges and agrees that, except for the information provided to
the Optionholder by the Company pursuant to Section 15(b) and 15(d) prior to execution of this Agreement, neither the Company nor any of the Company’s officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents or representatives has any duty or

 17.12. Agreement to Arbitrate. The Optionholder and the Company
recognize that differences may arise between them during or following the Optionholder’s tenure as a director of the Company, and that those differences may or may not be related to the grant of the Option herein or to the Optionholder’s
tenure as a director of the Company. The Optionholder understands and agrees that by entering into this Agreement, the Optionholder anticipates the benefits of a speedy, impartial dispute-resolution procedure of any such differences. As used in this
Section 17.12 and its subparts, the “Company” shall also refer to all benefit plans, the benefit plans’ sponsors, fiduciaries, administrators, affiliates, and all successors and assigns of any of them. 

(a) Arbitrable Claims. (i) ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN THE OPTIONHOLDER (AND ITS PERMITTED SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) AND THE COMPANY
(AND ITS AFFILIATES, SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS AND PERMITTED SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) RELATING IN ANY MANNER WHATSOEVER TO THE OPTIONHOLDER’S TENURE AS A DIRECTOR OF THE COMPANY OR TO THE TERMINATION THEREOF, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION ALL DISPUTES ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT (COLLECTIVELY, “ARBITRABLE CLAIMS”) SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY BINDING ARBITRATION. Arbitrable Claims shall include, but are not limited to, contract (express or implied) and tort
claims of all kinds, as well as all claims based on any federal, state, or local law, statute, or regulation (including but not limited to claims alleging unlawful harassment or discrimination in violation of Title VII and/or Title IX of the U.S.
Code, of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, of the Americans with Disabilities Act, of state statute, or otherwise), excepting only claims under applicable workers’ compensation law and unemployment insurance claims. Arbitration shall be
final and binding upon the parties and shall be the exclusive remedy for all Arbitrable Claims. Except as provided in Section 17.12(a)(ii), the Arbitrator (as defined below) shall decide whether a claim is an Arbitrable Claim. THE PARTIES
HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THAT THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN REGARD TO ARBITRABLE CLAIMS. 
 (ii)
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, HOWEVER, THE COMPANY MAYENFORCE IN COURT, WITHOUT PRIOR RESORT TO ARBITRATION, ANY CLAIM CONCERNING ACTUAL OR THREATENED UNFAIR COMPETITION AND/OR THE ACTUAL OR THREATENED USE AND/ORUNAUTHORIZED
DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL OR PROPRIETARY INFORMATION OF THE COMPANY. The court shall determine whether a claim concerns actual or threatened unfair competition and/or the actual or threatened use and/or unauthorized disclosure of confidential or
proprietary information of the Company. 
 (b) Arbitration Procedure. 

(i) American Arbitration Association Rules; Initiation of Arbitration; Location of Arbitration. Arbitration of
Arbitrable Claims shall be in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”), except as provided otherwise in this Agreement. Arbitration shall be initiated by providing
written notice to the other party with a statement of the claim(s) asserted, 

  
 10 

 
the facts upon which the claim(s) are based, and the remedy sought. This notice shall be provided to the other party within two (2) years of the acts or omissions complained of. Any claim
not initiated within this limitations period shall be null and void, and the Company and the Director waive all rights under statutes of limitation of different duration. The arbitration shall take place in New York, New York. 

(ii) Selection of Arbitrator. All disputes involving Arbitrable Claims shall be decided by a single arbitrator (the
“Arbitrator”), who shall be selected as follows. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) shall give each party a list of eleven (11) arbitrators drawn from its panel of employment arbitrators (the “Name
List”). Each party may strike up to six (6) names on the Name List it deems unacceptable, and shall notify the other party of the names it has stricken, within fourteen (14) calendar days of the date the AAA gave notice of the Name
List. If only one common name on the Name List remains unstricken by the parties, that individual shall be designated as the Arbitrator. If more than one common name remains on the Name Lists unstricken by parties, Director shall strike one of the
remaining names and notify the Company, within seven (7) calendar days of notification of the list of unstricken names. If, after Director strikes a name as set forth in the preceding sentence, there is still two or more unstricken names, the
Company and the Director shall alternately strike names (with the Company having the next strike) and notify the other party of the stricken name within seven (7) calendar days, until only one remains. If no common name on the initial the Name
List remains unstricken by the parties, the AAA shall furnish an additional list or lists, and the parties shall proceed as set forth above, until an Arbitrator is selected. 

(iii) Conduct of the Arbitration. 

(A) Discovery. To help prepare for the arbitration, the Director and the Company shall be entitled, at their own
expense, to learn about the facts of a claim before the arbitration begins. Each party shall have the right to take the deposition of one (1) individual and any expert witness designated by another party. Each party also shall have the right to
make requests for production of documents to any party. Additional discovery may be had only where the Arbitrator so orders, upon a showing of substantial need. At least thirty (30) days before the arbitration, the parties must exchange lists
of witnesses, including any expert witnesses, and copies of all exhibits intended to be used at the arbitration. 

(B) Authority. The Arbitrator shall have jurisdiction to hear and rule on pre-hearing disputes and is authorized to
hold pre-hearing conferences by telephone or in person as the Arbitrator deems necessary. The Arbitrator shall have the authority to entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party and shall apply the standards
governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The Arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the state in which the claim arose, or federal law, or both, as applicable to the claim(s)
asserted. The Arbitrator shall have the authority to award equitable relief, damages, costs and fees as provided by the law for the particular claim(s) asserted. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award remedies or relief that a New York
court could not have awarded. The Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply. The burden of proof shall be allocated as provided by 

  
 11 

 
applicable law. Except as provided in Section 17.12(a)(ii), the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute
relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Agreement, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of any of the Agreement is void or voidable and any assertion that a dispute between the
Director and the Company is not an Arbitrable Claim. The arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties. 
 (C) Costs. Either party, at its expense, may arrange for and pay the cost of a court reporter to provide a stenographic record of the proceedings. If the Arbitrator orders a stenographic record,
the parties shall split the cost. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 17.12 and in Section 17.7, the Director and the Company shall equally share the fees and costs of the arbitration and the Arbitrator. 

(c) Confidentiality. All proceedings and documents prepared in connection with any Arbitrable Claim shall be confidential and,
unless otherwise required by law, the subject matter thereof shall not be disclosed to any person other than the parties to the proceeding, their counsel, witnesses and experts, the Arbitrator, and, if involved, the court and court staff. All
documents filed with the Arbitrator or with a court shall be filed under seal. The parties shall stipulate to all arbitration and court orders necessary to effectuate fully the provisions of this subparagraph concerning confidentiality. 

(d) Enforceability. Either party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration under this
Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Except as provided above, None of the parties shall initiate or prosecute any lawsuit or administrative action in any way related to any Arbitrable Claim. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the
interpretation and enforcement of this Section 17.12.

 Exhibit 10.22 
 STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
 This STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT (the
“Agreement”) is entered into as of November 6, 2002, by and between INDEX DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS, INC, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and LUCIANO SIRACUSANO (the “Employee”). 

WHEREAS, on November 6, 2002 (the “Grant Date”), the Stock Option Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of
Directors of the Company (the “Board”) authorized the grant to the Employee of an option (the “Option”) to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of the authorized but unissued Common Stock of the Company, $.01 par value (the
“Common Stock”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 1996 Performance Equity Plan (the “Plan”), conditioned upon the Employee’s acceptance of the grant of the Option upon the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, the Employee desires to acquire the Option upon the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan; 
 IT IS AGREED: 

1. Grant of Stock Option. The Company hereby grants the Employee the Option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of 100,000
shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein and subject to the provisions of the Plan. 
 2. Incentive Stock Option. The Option represented hereby is intended to be an Option which qualifies as an “Incentive Stock Option” under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended. 
 3. Exercise Price. The exercise price of the Option is $0.07 per share, subject to adjustment as
hereinafter provided, 
 4. Exercisability. This Option shall be exercisable as to 33,333 shares on November 6,
2003, as to an additional 33,333 shares on November 6, 2004 and as to an additional 33,334 shares on November 6, 2005. After a portion of the Option becomes exercisable, such portion shall remain exercisable, except as otherwise provided
herein, until the close of business on November 6, 2012 (“Exercise Period”). 
 5. Effect of Termination of
Employment. 
 5.1. Termination Due to Death. If Employee’s employment by the Company terminates
by reason of death, the portion of the Option, if any, that was exercisable as of the date of death may thereafter be exercised by the legal representative 

 
of the estate or by the legatee of the Employee under the will of the Employee, for a period of one (1) year from the date of such death or until the expiration of the Exercise Period,
whichever period is shorter. The portion of the Option, if any, that was not exercisable as of the date of death shall immediately expire upon death. 
 5.2. Termination Due to Disability. If Employee’s employment by the Company terminates by reason of Disability (as such term is defined in the Plan), the portion of the Option, if any, that
was exercisable as of the date of termination of employment may thereafter be exercised by the Employee for a period of one (1) year from the date of the termination of employment or until the expiration of the Exercise Period, whichever period
is shorter. The portion of the Option, if any, that was not exercisable as of the date of such termination of employment shall immediately expire on the date of such termination of employment. 

5.3. Other Termination. 
 (a) If Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company or the Employee for any reason other than (i) death or (ii) Disability or (iii) for cause by the Company, then the portion of
the Option, if any, that was exercisable as of the date of termination of employment may thereafter be exercised by the Employee for a period of thirty (30) days from termination of employment or until the expiration of the Exercise Period,
whichever is shorter. The portion of the Option, if any, that was not exercisable as of the date of such termination of employment shall immediately expire on the date of such termination of employment. 

(b) In the event the Employee’s employment is terminated for cause, (i) this Option, whether or not exercisable,
shall immediately expire and (ii) the Company may require the Employee to return to the Company the economic value of any Option Shares purchased hereunder by the Employee within the six (6) month period prior to the date of such
termination of employment. In such event, the Employee hereby agrees to remit to the Company, in cash, an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value (as such term is defined in the Plan) of the Option Shares on the date of such
termination of employment (or the sales price of such Shares if the Option Shares were sold during such six (6) month period) and the Exercise Price of such Shares. 

5.4. “Employment”. The Employee shall be considered to be employed by the Company pursuant to this
Section 5 if the Employee is an officer, director or full-time employee of the Company (or of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company) or if the Committee determines in its sole and absolute discretion that the Employee is rendering
substantial services to the Company as a part-time employee, consultant or contractor of the Company (or of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company). The Committee shall have the sole and absolute discretion to determine whether the
Employee has ceased to be employed by the Company and the effective date on which such employment terminated. 

 5.5. No Right to Employment. Nothing in the Plan or in this Agreement
shall confer on the Employee any right to continue in the employ of, or other relationship with, the Company (or with any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company) or limit in any way the right of the Company (or of any parent, subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company) to terminate the Employee’s employment or other relationship with the Company (or with any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company) at any time, with or without cause. 

5.6. Competing With the Company. In the event that, within eighteen (18) months after the date of termination
of Employee’s employment with the Company, Employee accepts employment with any competitor of, or otherwise competes with, the Company, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may require Employee to return to the Company the economic value of
any Option Shares purchased hereunder by the Employee within the six (6) month period prior to the date of termination or after the date of termination. In such event, Employee agrees to remit the economic value to the Company in
accordance with Section 5.3(b). 
 6. Withholding Tax. Not later than the date as of which an amount first becomes
includible in the gross income of the Employee for Federal income tax purposes with respect to the Option, the Employee shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any Federal, state and local
taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or paid with respect to such amount. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of the Company under the Plan and pursuant to this Agreement shall be conditional upon
such payment or arrangements with the Company and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Employee from the Company. 

7. Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, consolidation, dividend (other than
cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, or other change in corporate structure affecting the number of issued shares of Common Stock, the Company shall proportionally adjust the number and kind of Option Shares and the exercise price of
the Option in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the Employee’s proportionate interest in the Company and Employee’s rights hereunder, provided that the number of Option Shares shall always be a whole number. 

8. Method of Exercise. 
 8.1. Notice to the Company. The Option shall be exercised in whole or in part by written notice in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A directed to the Company at its principal place
of business accompanied by full payment as hereinafter provided of the exercise price for the number of Option Shares specified in the notice. 
 8.2. Delivery of Option Shares. The Company shall deliver a certificate for the Option Shares to the Employee as soon as practicable after payment therefore. 

 8.3. Payment of Purchase Price. The Employee shall make pay for the Option Shares by
any one or more of the following methods set forth in this Section 8.3. 
 8.3.1. Cash Payment. The
Employee shall make cash payments by wire transfer, certified check or bank check, in each case payable to the order of the Company; the Company shall not be required to deliver certificates for Option Shares until the Company has confirmed the
receipt of good and available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof. 
 8.3.2. Payment through Bank
or Broker. The Employee may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company with a bank or a broker who is member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. to either (a) sell on the exercise date a sufficient number of the Option
Shares being purchased so that the net proceeds of the sale transaction will at least equal the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes
and pursuant to which the bank or broker undertakes irrevocably to deliver the full Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes to the
Company on a date satisfactory to the Company, but no later than the date on which the sale transaction would settle in the ordinary course of business or (b) obtain a “margin commitment” from the bank or broker pursuant to which the
bank or broker undertakes irrevocably to deliver the full Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Option Shares being purchased pursuant to such exercise, plus the amount of any applicable withholding taxes to the Company, immediately upon
receipt of the Option Shares. 
 8.3.3. Cashless Payment. The Employee may, in his or her sole discretion,
use shares of Common Stock of the Company that were owned by the Employee for more than six (6) months (and which have been paid for within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 and, if such shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory
note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares), or that were obtained by the Employee in the open public market, to pay the purchase price for the Option Shares by delivery of one or more stock certificates in negotiable form which
are effective to transfer good and valid title thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances. Shares of Common Stock used for this purpose shall be valued at the Fair Market Value. 

8.3.4. Payment of Withholding Tax. Any required withholding tax may be paid in cash or with Common Stock in
accordance with Sections 8.3.1., 8.3.2 and 8.3.3. 
 8.3.5. Exchange Act Compliance. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall have the right to reject payment in the form of Common Stock if in the opinion of counsel for the Company, (i) it could result in an event of “recapture” under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934; (ii) such shares of Common Stock may not be sold or transferred to the Company; or (iii) such transfer could create legal difficulties for the Company. 

 9. Security Interest in Option Shares Collateralizing Obligations Owed to the
Company. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Employee hereby grants the Company a security interest in the Option Shares as follows: in the event that the Employee owes the Company any sum (including without
limitation amounts owed pursuant to a loan made by the Company to the Employee), and such sum is past due (the “Past Due Amount”), the Company shall have a security interest in the Option Shares. The Employee hereby agrees to execute,
promptly upon request by the Company, such instruments and to take such action as may be useful for the Company to perfect and/or exercise such security interest, and hereby irrevocably grants the Company the right to retain, in full or partial
payment of the Past Due Amount, up to the following number of Option Shares upon any whole or partial exercise of the Option: a fraction, the numerator of which is the Past Due Amount, and the denominator of which is the Fair Market Value of the
Company’s common stock (as defined in the Plan) as of the date of such exercise; provided that the fraction set forth in the preceding clause shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The security interest set forth herein shall be
cumulative to all, and not in lieu of any, other remedies to available to the Company with respect to any Past Due Amount. 

10. Market Standoff Agreement. The Employee agrees that, in connection with any registration of the Company’s securities,
upon the request of the Company or the underwriters managing any public offering of the Company’s securities, the Employee will not sell or otherwise dispose of any Option Shares (including without limitation sale of Option Shares in connection
with the exercise method set forth in Section 8.3.2.) or any other securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time from the effective date of such
registration as the Company or the underwriters may specify for the Company’s employee shareholders generally. The Employee understands and agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the market standoff agreement, the Company may issue
appropriate “stop-transfer” instructions to its transfer agent. 
 11. Notice of
Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option granted to the Employee herein is an ISO, and if the Employee sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Option Shares acquired pursuant to a whole or partial exercise the Option prior to the
later of (a) the second (2nd) anniversary of the Grant Date, or (b) the first (1st) anniversary of the date of exercise of such Option Shares, the Employee shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such sale or disposition. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the
Employee may be subject to income and other tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by the Employee from any such sale or disposition, by payment in cash (or in shares of Common Stock, to the extent permissible under
Section 8.3.4.) or out of the current wages or other earnings payable to Employee. The Employee hereby authorizes his/her broker(s) to provide the Company, promptly at the Company’s request, with any information concerning the Option
Shares, now or previously in Employee’s account(s) with such broker(s), as the Company may request. The Employee agrees that this authorization may not be revoked or modified in any manner except pursuant to a writing signed by both the
Employee and the Company. 

 12. Nonassignability. The Option shall not be assignable or transferable except by
will or by the laws of descent and distribution in the event of the death of the Employee. No transfer of the Option by the Employee by will or by the laws of descent and distribution shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Company shall
have been furnished with written notice thereof and a copy of the will and such other evidence as the Company may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the terms and
conditions of the Option. 
 13. Required Holding Period. This Option and any Common Stock acquired upon its exercise may not be
sold, assigned or otherwise transferred prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the Grant Date. 
 14. Company

 (a) the Company, by
appropriate and all required action, is duly authorized to enter into this Agreement and consummate all of the transactions contemplated hereunder; and 
 (b) the Option Shares, when issued and delivered by the Company to the Employee in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, will be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.

the 1933 Act; 
 (d) in his or her position with the Company, he or she has had both the opportunity to ask
questions and receive answers from the officers and directors of the Company and all persons acting on its behalf concerning the terms and conditions of the offer made hereunder and to obtain any additional information to the extent the Company
possesses or may possess such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort 

 
or expense necessary to verify the accuracy of the information obtained pursuant to clause (b) above; 
 (e) he or she is aware that the Company shall place stop transfer orders with its transfer agent against the transfer of the Option Shares in the absence of registration under the 1933 Act or an exemption
therefrom as provided herein; and

legends: 
 “The shares represented by this certificate have been acquired for investment and have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares may not be sold or transferred in the absence of such registration or an exemption therefrom under said Act.” 

“The shares represented by this certificate have been acquired pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement, dated as of

contrary, and in addition to the provisions of Section 12 of this Agreement, the Employee hereby agrees that he or she shall not sell, transfer by any means or otherwise dispose of the Option Shares acquired by him or her without registration

transfer and the Company’s legal counsel, in its reasonable opinion, shall deem such proposed transfer to be so exempt. 

17. Interpretation. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of this Agreement shall be submitted by the Employee or the Company
to the Committee for review. The resolution of such a dispute by the Board or Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and on the Employee.

prior undertakings and agreements, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Agreement may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior or contemporaneous agreement. To the extent that the policies and procedures of the Company

persons providing the services, reasonable fees and/or allocated costs of staff (in-house) counsel, and fees and expenses of experts retained by counsel in connection with such arbitration or litigation and with any and all appeals or petitions
therefrom, in addition to any other relief to which the Prevailing Party may be entitled. A party to a 

 
Covered Dispute shall be the Prevailing Party in such Covered Dispute if the claims against such party are dismissed at any stage in the arbitration or litigation.

court shall determine whether a claim concerns actual or threatened unfair competition and/or the actual or threatened use and/or unauthorized disclosure of confidential or proprietary information of the Company. 

(b) Arbitration Procedure. 
 (i) American Arbitration Association Rules; Initiation of Arbitration; Location of Arbitration. Arbitration of Arbitrable Claims shall be in accordance with the Employment Dispute Resolution
Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”), except as provided otherwise in this Agreement. Arbitration shall be initiated by providing written notice to the other party with a statement of the claim(s) asserted, the facts
upon which the claim(s) are based, and the remedy sought. This notice shall be provided to the other party within six (6) months of the acts or omissions complained of. Any claim not initiated within this limitations period shall be null and
void, and the Company and the Employee waive all rights under statutes of limitation of different duration. The arbitration shall take place in New York, New York. 

(ii) Selection of Arbitrator. All disputes involving Arbitrable Claims shall be decided by a single arbitrator (the
“Arbitrator”), who shall be selected as follows. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) shall give each party a list of eleven (11) arbitrators drawn from its panel of employment arbitrators (the “Name
List”). Each party may strike up to six (6) names on the Name List it deems unacceptable, and shall notify the other party of the names it has stricken, within fourteen (14) calendar days of the date the AAA gave notice of the Name
List. If only one common name on the Name List remains unstricken by the parties, that individual shall be designated as the Arbitrator. If more than one common name remains on the Name Lists unstricken by parties, Employee shall strike one of the
remaining names and notify the Company, within seven (7) calendar days of notification of the list of unstricken names. If, after Employee strikes a name as set forth in the preceding sentence, there is still two or more unstricken names, the
Company and the Employee shall alternately strike names (with the Company having the next strike) and notify the other party of the stricken name within seven (7) calendar days, until only one remains. If no common name on the initial the Name
List remains unstricken by the parties, the AAA shall furnish an additional list or lists, and the parties shall proceed as set forth above, until an Arbitrator is selected. 

(iii) Conduct of the Arbitration. 

(A) Discovery. To help prepare for the arbitration, the Employee and the Company shall be entitled, at their own
expense, to learn about the facts of a 

 
claim before the arbitration begins. Each party shall have the right to take the deposition of one (1) individual and any expert witness designated by another party. Each party also shall
have the right to make requests for production of documents to any party. Additional discovery may be had only where the Arbitrator so orders, upon a showing of substantial need. At least thirty (30) days before the arbitration, the parties
must exchange lists of witnesses, including any expert witnesses, and copies of all exhibits intended to be used at the arbitration. 
 (B) Authority. The Arbitrator shall have jurisdiction to hear and rule on pre-hearing disputes and is authorized to hold pre-hearing conferences by telephone or in person as the Arbitrator deems
necessary. The Arbitrator shall have the authority to entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party and shall apply the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The Arbitrator
shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the state in which the claim arose, or federal law, or both, as applicable to the claim(s) asserted. The Arbitrator shall have the authority to award equitable relief,
damages, costs and fees as provided by the law for the particular claim(s) asserted. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award remedies or relief that a New York court could not have awarded. The Federal Rules of Evidence shall apply. The
burden of proof shall be allocated as provided by applicable law. Except as provided in Section 18(a)(ii), the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to
the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Agreement, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of any of the Agreement is void or voidable and any assertion that a dispute between the Employee and the
Company is not an Arbitrable Claim. The arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties. 
 (C)
Costs. Either party, at its expense, may arrange for and pay the cost of a court reporter to provide a stenographic record of the proceedings. If the Arbitrator orders a stenographic record, the parties shall split the cost. Except as
otherwise provided in this Section 18.12 and in Section 18.7, the Employee and the Company shall equally share the fees and costs of the arbitration and the Arbitrator. 

(c) Confidentiality. All proceedings and documents prepared in connection with any Arbitrable Claim shall be confidential and,
unless otherwise required by law, the subject matter thereof shall not be disclosed to any person other than the parties to the proceeding, their counsel, witnesses and experts, the Arbitrator, and, if involved, the court and court staff. All
documents filed with the Arbitrator or with a court shall be filed under seal. The parties shall stipulate to all arbitration and court orders necessary to effectuate fully the provisions of this subparagraph concerning confidentiality. 

(d) Enforceability. Either party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration under this
Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Except as provided above, neither party shall initiate or prosecute any lawsuit or administrative action in any way related to any Arbitrable Claim. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the
interpretation and enforcement of this Section 18.12.
