or property of the Company, combination of Shares, exchange of Shares, dividend in kind, or other like change in capital structure, number
of outstanding Shares or distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to shareholders of the Company, or any similar corporate event

this Plan, shall substitute or adjust, as applicable, the number and kind of Shares that may be issued under this Plan, the number and
kind of Shares subject to outstanding Grants, the Annual Grant Limits, and other value determinations applicable to outstanding Grants.

 

The
Administrator, in its sole discretion, may also make appropriate adjustments in the terms of any Grants under this Plan to reflect or
relate to such changes or distributions and to modify any other terms of outstanding Grants. The determination of the Administrator as
to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Directors under this Plan.

 

Subject
to the provisions of Section 6.7 and notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, without affecting the number of Shares reserved

Article

and Participation

as a non-employee director of the Corporation.

 

Article
6               Grants of Shares

 

6.1          Annual Grants. As of the first date of each Compensation Year, the Company will grant to each Director a number of Shares for that
Compensation Year. The number of Shares granted to each Director shall be determined by (i) dividing the amount of each Director’s
cash retainer for the Compensation Year by the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the first day of the Compensation Year (which date
is the Grant Date for purposes of this Plan), and (ii) rounding such number of Shares up to the nearest whole Share, provided, however,
that the Corporation may revise the foregoing formula for any year without shareholder approval, subject to the Plan’s overall
Share limits. Except as provided herein, the Shares shall remain unvested and forfeitable.

 

6.2          Partial Year Directors. For individuals who become Directors after the first day of the Compensation Year, such Directors shall receive
a pro-rata number of Shares for the Compensation Year based on the number of days remaining in the Compensation Year. The number of Shares
granted under this Section 6.2 shall be determined pursuant to Section 6.1 but based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date
the Director becomes a Director, which date shall be the Grant Date with respect to such Shares.

 

    6

     

    

 

6.3          Limits on Shares. The Administrator shall have the authority to increase the number of Shares granted to each Director during a
Compensation Year but in no event shall the amount granted exceed the limits set forth in Article 4 above.

 

6.4          Vesting of Shares. Subject to Section 6.7, each Director’s Shares pursuant to a Grant (including the Shares of Directors whose
Grants were subject to Section 6.2) shall become vested and non-forfeitable on the first anniversary of the Grant Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Administrator may determine each year, in its sole discretion, that a different vesting schedule shall apply to the
Grant for that year.

 

6.5          Death or Disability Before Vesting. Subject to Section 6.7, if a Director dies or becomes Disabled while they are a Director, all
Shares that are forfeitable shall become non-forfeitable as of the date of the Director’s death or Disability.

 

6.6          Forfeiture of Nonvested Shares. (a) Subject to paragraph (b) and Sections 6.5 and 6.7, all Shares that are forfeitable shall be forfeited
if a Director Terminates their service as a director before the Shares become vested under Section 6.4.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding
paragraph (a) hereof, a Director who elects not to stand for reelection as a Director for the following Compensation Year shall vest
in a pro-rata portion of their outstanding Grants at the annual meeting at which their service as a Director Terminates. For the avoidance
of doubt, if such Director’s service Terminates prior to such annual meeting for any reason, the Director shall not be entitled
to pro-rata accelerated vesting pursuant to this Section 6.6(b).

 

6.7          Change in Control of the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the provisions of this Section
6.7 shall apply in the event of a Change in Control, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in connection with a Grant.

 

(a)           If, upon a Change of Control, a Director receives a new Grant which qualifies as a “Replacement Grant” (as defined below),
the Award shall continue subject to the terms of the Replacement Grant.

 

(b)           If, upon a Change of Control that results in the Company’s Shares no longer being traded on The Trading Market or another established
securities market and no Replacement Grant is granted to a Director, the unvested portion of a Grant shall become immediately vested
upon the Change of Control.

 

(c)           If, following a Change of Control, the Company’s Shares continue to be traded on The Trading Market or another established securities
market, outstanding Grants shall continue in effect and be treated as Replacement Awards as described in subparagraph (a).

 

(d)           Notwithstanding any of subparagraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 6.7, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine that
any or all outstanding Grants granted under this Plan will be canceled and terminated, and that in connection with such cancellation
and termination, the holder of such Grant may receive for each Share of Common Stock subject to such Grant a cash payment (or the delivery
of shares of stock, other securities or a combination of cash, stock and securities equivalent to such cash payment) equal to the consideration
received by shareholders of the Company in respect of a Share of Common Stock in connection with such transaction multiplied by the number
of Shares of Common Stock subject to such Grant.

 

    7

     

    

 

(e)           A
Grant shall be considered a Replacement Grant if: (i) it has a value at least equal to the value of the Grant it is replacing as
determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion; (ii) it relates to publicly traded equity securities of the Company or its
successor in the Change of Control or another entity that is affiliated with the Company or its successor following the Change of
Control; and (iii) its other terms and conditions are not less favorable to the Director than the terms and conditions of the Grant
it is replacing (including the provisions that would apply in the event of a subsequent Change of Control). Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Grant may take the form of a continuation of the Grant it is replacing if the
requirements of the preceding sentence are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 6.7 are satisfied
shall be made by the Administrator in its sole discretion.

 

(f)            With respect to Grants for which a Deferral Election has been made under Article 7, if applicable, such Grants shall vest pursuant to
paragraph (a) but the Deferral Election with respect to such Grants shall remain in place.

 

6.8          Dividends. On and after the Grant Date, Directors shall receive, as additional cash payments, amounts representing the cash dividends
paid on their Shares. If, however, a Director elects to defer their Stock Compensation pursuant to Section 7.1(c) of this Plan, dividend
equivalents shall accrue in the Deferred Stock Account from the Grant Date.

 

THE
PROVISIONS OF ARTICLES 7, 8, AND 9 OF THIS PLAN SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE, IF AT ALL, ONLY AT SUCH TIME AS THE BOARD SHALL DETERMINE THAT
DIRECTORS MAY ELECT TO DEFER THEIR CASH AND/OR STOCK COMPENSATION FOR THE YEAR. PRIOR TO THE TIME DESCRIBED IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE,
NO DEFERRALS SHALL BE PERMITTED UNDER THE PLAN AND ARTICLES 7, 8 AND 9 OF THE PLAN, AS WELL AS ANY OTHER PLAN PROVISIONS TO THE EXTENT
THEY APPLY TO DEFERRALS OF BENEFITS, SHALL NOT APPLY.

 

Article
7               Deferral Elections

 

7.1          Right to Elect Deferrals. A Director may elect a Deferred Benefit for any Deferral Year if they are a Director at the beginning of
that Deferral Year or they become a Director during that Deferral Year.

 

(a)       A
Deferral Election is valid when a Deferral Election Form is completed, signed by the electing Director, and received by the Administrator.
Deferral Elections are governed by the provisions of this Article 7.

 

(b)       Before
each Deferral Year’s Election Date, each Director will be provided with a Deferral Election Form. Under the Deferral Election Form
for a single Deferral Year, a Director may elect on or before the Election Date to defer the receipt of all or part of their Cash Compensation
(in 10% multiples) for the Deferral Year, that will be earned and payable after the Election Date.

 

(c)       Before
each Deferral Year’s Election Date, a Director may also elect to defer the receipt of all or part of their Stock Compensation granted
during the Deferral Year (in 10% multiples).

 

(d)       A
Director’s Deferral of Cash Compensation shall only be deferred as a Deferred Cash Benefit. A Director’s deferral of Stock
Compensation shall only be deferred as a Deferred Stock Benefit. A Director may not elect to convert a Deferred Cash Benefit to a Deferred
Stock Benefit or to convert a Deferred Stock Benefit to a Deferred Cash Benefit.

 

    8

     

    

 

(e)       Each
Distribution Election Form is part of the Deferral Election Form on which it appears or to which it is related. The Administrator
may allow a Director to file one Distribution Election Form for all of their Deferred Stock Benefits, all of their Deferred Cash
Benefits or all of their Deferred Benefits. The Administrator may allow a Director to file multiple Distribution Election Forms that
relate to any or all of their Deferred Benefits for one or more Deferral Years. The provisions of Article 8 shall apply to any
Deferred Benefit for which there is no operative Distribution Election Form.

 

(f)       Prior
to the Election Date, the Administrator may (i) reject any Deferral Election Form or Distribution Election Form for any or no reason
and (ii) modify any Distribution Election Form to the extent necessary to comply with any federal tax or securities laws or regulations.
However, the Administrator’s rejection of any Deferral Election Form or Distribution Election Form, and the Administrator’s
modification of any Distribution Election Form, must be based upon action taken without regard to any vote of the Director whose Deferral
Election Form or Distribution Election Form is under consideration, and the Administrator’s rejections must be made on a uniform
basis with respect to similarly situated Directors. If the Administrator rejects a Deferral Election Form, the Director must be paid
the amounts such Director would then have been entitled to receive if such Director had not submitted the rejected Deferral Election
Form.

 

(g)      Subject
to the last paragraph of Section 8.1(c) hereof, a Director may not revise or revoke a Deferral Election Form or Distribution Election
Form after the Deferral Year begins. Any revocation of a Deferral Election Form or Distribution Election Form before the beginning of
the Deferral Year is the same as a failure to submit a Deferral Election Form or Distribution Election Form. Any writing signed by a
Director expressing an intention to revoke their Deferral Election Form or a related Distribution Election Form and delivered to the
Administrator before the close of business on the relevant Election Date shall constitute a revocation of such form.

 

(h)      The
Plan is unfunded. A Deferred Benefit is at all times a mere contractual obligation of the Company. The Company will not segregate any
funds or assets for Deferred Benefits nor issue any notes or security for the payment of any Deferred Benefit.

 

(i)       A
Director has no control over Deferred Benefits except according to their Deferral Election Forms, Distribution Election Forms, and Beneficiary
Designation Forms, and their right to select hypothetical investment options, if applicable.

 

(j)       A
Director’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account are not subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer,
assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt to do so is void. Deferred Benefits are not subject to attachment or legal
process for a Director’s debts or other obligations. Nothing contained in this Plan gives any Director any interest, lien, or claim
against any specific asset of the Company. A Director or their Beneficiary has no rights to receive Deferred Benefits other than as a
general creditor of the Company.

 

7.2          Effect of No Election. A Director who has not submitted a valid Deferral Election Form to the Administrator on or before the relevant
Election Date may not defer their Cash Compensation or Stock Compensation for the applicable Deferral Year. Any Deferred Benefit for
which no valid Deferral Election Form has been submitted before the relevant Election Date, and for which there is no otherwise valid
Distribution Election Form in effect, shall be governed by Article 8 of this Plan.

 

7.3              
Deferred Cash Benefits.

 

(a)       Deferred
Cash Benefits will be allocated to a Deferred Cash Account for each Director and credited with interest, earnings and losses, as
applicable, determined pursuant to subparagraph (b)(i) of this Section 7.3. Deferred Cash Benefits shall be credited to a
Director’s Deferred Cash Account as of the day they would have been paid to such Director but for the applicable Deferral
Election.

 

    9

     

    

 

(b)       (i)
The value of a Deferred Cash Account as of any date shall equal the amount of Cash Compensation allocated to such Deferred Cash Account
as of such date, as adjusted for interest, earnings and losses pursuant to this Section 7.3(b). The Board or its designee shall have
the sole discretion to determine how interest, earnings and losses credited to a Director’s Deferred Cash Account will be calculated,
including, without limitation, by specifying an applicable interest rate, tracking the performance of one or more investment option,
index or similar measure, or allowing Directors to allocate their Deferred Cash Benefits among a series of hypothetical investment options,
with such Deferred Cash Benefits to be measured based upon the performance of the investment options selected, reduced by an amount equal
to any investment managers’ and other applicable expenses that would apply to an actual investment in the selected investment option.

 

(ii)
Interest, earnings and losses shall accrue through the latest date administratively practicable preceding the date of distribution of
a Deferred Cash Benefit, which date is referred to in this Plan as the Cash Distribution Date.

 

7.4          Deferred Stock Benefits.

 

(a)       Deferred
Stock Benefits will be allocated to a Deferred Stock Account for each electing Director and credited with earnings and losses in accordance
with subsection (b). A Director’s Deferred Stock Account shall be credited with the same number of shares of Common Stock that,
but for the Director’s Deferral Election, would have been issued to the Director during the applicable Deferral Year under Article
6 of this Plan.

 

(b)       The
value of a Deferred Stock Account as of any date shall equal the Fair Market Value of the Shares allocated to such Deferred Stock Account
on such date. If any dividends are paid with respect to Shares for which a Deferral Election is in effect, the Director’s Deferred
Stock Account will be credited with additional whole or fractional Shares equal to the Fair Market Value of such dividends on the payment
date.

 

Article
8               Deferral Distributions

 

8.1          Time and Form of Payments.

 

(a)       According
to a Director’s Distribution Election Form, a Deferred Cash Benefit will be distributed in cash and a Deferred Stock Benefit will
be distributed in shares of Common Stock equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock credited to the Director’s Deferred
Stock Account determined as of the distribution date. However, cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock credited
to the Director’s Deferred Stock Account.

 

(b)       Deferred
Benefits will be paid in a lump sum unless the Director’s Distribution Election Form specifies annual installment payments over
a period of up to 10 years. A Deferred Benefit payable in installments will continue to accrue additional credits under Plan subsection
7.3(b) or 7.4(b), as applicable, on the unpaid balance of the Deferred Cash Account or Deferred Stock Account, as applicable.

 

(c)       Unless
otherwise specified in a Director’s Distribution Election Form, any lump sum payment will be paid or installment payments will
begin to be paid on the February 15th of the year following the year in which the Director Terminates For distributions that would
automatically be caused under the preceding sentence by a Director’s Termination (other than due to death), the Director may
elect on their Distribution Election Form that payments are to begin:

 

    10

     

    

 

(i)        on
the February 15th of the year following the later of the year in which they Terminate and the year in which they attain a
specified age; or

 

(ii)
       on the February 15th of the year following the year in which they attain a specified
age, regardless of when they Terminate.

 

For
purposes of these distribution election alternatives, the specified age must be not less than the Director’s age two years from
the Election Date pertaining to the applicable Deferral Year. A Director may amend their Distribution Election Form to postpone the commencement
of benefit payments only if (i) the amendment is made at least twelve months before the date distributions would otherwise have commenced,
(ii) the amended payment date is at least five years after the original payment date, and (iii) the amendment otherwise conforms to the
requirements of the Plan and Code Section 409A.

 

8.2          Death. Upon a Director’s death, their Beneficiary will receive the Beneficiary’s portion or remaining portion of the
Director’s Deferred Cash Account and Deferred Stock Account in a lump sum payment (regardless of the time and form of payment elected
by the Director) as soon as administratively feasible following the Director’s death.

 

Article
9                Hardship Distributions

 

(a)       At
the request of a Director before or after the Director’s Termination, a Director’s Deferred Benefits under this Plan shall
be paid in the event of a Financial Emergency. An accelerated distribution on account of a Financial Emergency must be limited to the
amount determined by the Administrator to be necessary to satisfy the Financial Emergency plus amounts necessary to pay applicable income
taxes and penalties.

 

(b)       For
purposes of an accelerated distribution under this section, the Deferred Stock Benefit’s value is determined by the value of the
Deferred Stock Account, as set out in Article 7.4(b), at the time of distribution.

 

(c)       Distributions
under this section must first be made from the Director’s Deferred Cash Account before accelerating the distribution of any amount
attributable to a Deferred Stock Benefit.

 

(d)       A
distribution under this section is in lieu of that portion of the Deferred Benefit that would have been paid otherwise. A Deferred Cash
Benefit is adjusted for a distribution under this section by reducing the Director’s Deferred Cash Account by the amount of the
distribution. A Deferred Stock Benefit is adjusted for a distribution under this section by reducing the value of the Director’s
Deferred Stock Account by the amount of the distribution.

 

Article
10             Beneficiary Designation

 

Each
Director under this Plan may, from time to time, name a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively)
who will receive any Stock Compensation or unpaid Deferred Benefit under this Plan in case of the Director’s death before
their Stock Compensation vests or their Deferred Benefits are paid. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations
by the same Director, shall be in a form prescribed by the Administrator, and will be effective only when filed by the Director in
writing with the Company during the Director’s lifetime. In the absence of any such Beneficiary designation, benefits
remaining unpaid at the Director’s death shall be paid to the default Beneficiary.

 

    11

     

    

 

Article
11             Successors

 

All
obligations of the Company under this Plan with respect to Grants made hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether
the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially
all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

 

Article
12             Amendment, Modification, Suspension,
and Termination

 

12.1        Amendment, Modification, Suspension, and Termination. The Administrator may, at any time and from time to time, alter, amend,
modify, suspend, or terminate this Plan in whole or in part; provided, however, that, without the prior approval of the Company’s
shareholders, no such amendment shall increase the number of Shares that may be granted to any Director, except as otherwise described
in this Plan, or increase the total number of Shares that may be granted under the Plan. In addition, any amendment of the Plan must
comply with the rules of The Trading Market and no material amendment of this Plan shall be made without shareholder approval if shareholder
approval is required by law, regulation, or stock exchange rule.

 

12.2        Plan Termination. Except for a termination of the Plan caused by the determination of the Board that the laws upon which the Plan
is based have changed in a manner that negates the Plan’s objectives, this Plan may not be altered, amended, suspended, or terminated
without the majority consent of all Directors who are Directors if that action would result either in a distribution of all Deferred
Benefits in any manner other than as provided in this Plan or that would result in immediate taxation of Deferred Benefits to Directors.

 

Upon
termination of the Plan, all vested benefits shall be paid upon the earliest to occur of the following events:

 

		1.	Termination
                                            and liquidation of the Plan within 12 months of a qualifying corporate dissolution or bankruptcy;

 

		2.	Termination
                                            and liquidation of the Plan pursuant to irrevocable action of the Company within 30 days
                                            before, or 12 months after, a Change in Control that qualifies as a distribution event under
                                            Code Section 409A;

 

		3.	A
                                            termination and liquidation of the Plan (i) that does not occur proximate to a downturn in
                                            the Company’s financial condition; (ii) where all plans required to be aggregated with
                                            the Plan are terminated; (iii) where no liquidation payments are made for at least 12 months
                                            after the Plan is terminated; (iv) where all payments are made by 24 months after the Plan
                                            is terminated; and (v) where the Company does not adopt a new plan of the same type, for
                                            at least three years after the Plan is terminated; or

 

		4.	The
                                            occurrence of an applicable distribution event pursuant to the other terms of the Plan.

 

Distributions
made under this Section 12.2, other than pursuant to paragraph 4 above, shall be paid in the form of a lump sum.

 

    12

     

    

 

12.3        Adjustment of Grants Upon the Occurrence of Certain Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Administrator may make adjustments in the
terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Grants in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation,
the events described in Section 4.3 hereof) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company or of changes in applicable
laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Administrator determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to
prevent unintended dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan. The determination
of the Administrator as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on Directors under this Plan.

 

12.4        Amendment to Conform to Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, the Plan shall be amended, to take
effect retroactively or otherwise, as deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of conforming the Plan to any present or future law
relating to plans of this or similar nature (including, but not limited to, Code Section 409A), and to the administrative regulations
and rulings promulgated thereunder. By accepting a Grant under this Plan, a Director agrees to any amendment made pursuant to this Section
12.4 to any Grant made under the Plan without further consideration or action.

 

Article
13             General Provisions

 

13.1        Forfeiture Events. Any Shares granted under this Plan will be subject to recoupment in accordance with any clawback policy that the
Company currently has in effect, or is required to adopt or modify, pursuant to the listing standards of any national securities exchange
or association on which the Company’s securities are listed or as is otherwise required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or other applicable law (“Clawback Policy”). In addition, the
Committee or the Board may impose such clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions on any Shares granted under this Plan as the Administrator
determines necessary or appropriate, including but not limited to a reacquisition right in respect of previously acquired Shares or other
cash or property.

 

13.2        Legend. The certificates for Shares may include any legend which the Administrator deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions
on transfer of such Shares.

 

13.3        Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine,
the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

 

13.4        Non-Assignability. Deferred Benefits may not be assigned by a Director or Beneficiary.

 

13.5        Severability. In the event any provision of this Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity
shall not affect the remaining parts of this Plan, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision
had not been included.

 

13.6        Requirements of Law. The granting and issuance of Shares under this Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations,
and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

 

13.7        Delivery
of Title. The Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver evidence of title for Shares issued under this Plan prior to:
(a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable; and (b) completion of
any registration or other qualification of the Shares under any applicable national or foreign law or ruling of any governmental body
that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable.

 

    13

     

    

 

13.8        Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which
authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve
the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been
obtained.

 

13.9        Investment Representations. The Administrator may require any individual receiving Shares under this Plan to represent and warrant
in writing that the individual is acquiring the Shares for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares.

 

13.10     Uncertificated Shares. To the extent that this Plan provides for issuance of certificates to reflect the transfer of Shares, the
transfer of such Shares may be effected on a noncertificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the rules of any
stock exchange.

 

13.11     Unfunded Plan. Directors shall have no right, title, or interest whatsoever in or to any investments that the Company, and/or its
Subsidiaries, and/or its Affiliates may make to aid it in meeting its obligations under this Plan. Nothing contained in this Plan, and
no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind, or a fiduciary relationship between
the Company and any Director, beneficiary, legal representative, or any other individual. To the extent that any individual acquires
a right to receive payments from the Company, its Subsidiaries, and/or its Affiliates under this Plan, such right shall be no greater
than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company, a Subsidiary, or an Affiliate, as the case may be. All payments to be
made hereunder shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, a Subsidiary, or an Affiliate, as the case may be and no special
or separate fund shall be established and no segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment of such amounts except as expressly
set forth in this Plan.

 

13.12      Nonexclusivity of this Plan. The adoption of this Plan shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board
or Administrator to adopt such other compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable for any Director.

 

13.13      No Constraint on Corporate Action. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to: (i) limit, impair, or otherwise affect the Company’s
or a Subsidiary’s or an Affiliate’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of
its capital or business structure, or to merge or consolidate, or dissolve, liquidate, sell, or transfer all or any part of its business
or assets; or, (ii) limit the right or power of the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate to take any action which such entity deems
to be necessary or appropriate.

 

13.14      No Right to Continued Board Membership. Nothing in this Plan shall confer on any Director the right to continued service as a member
of the Board or in any other capacity.

 

13.15     Governing
Law. The Plan and each Grant and Deferred Benefit hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard
to choice-of-law principles. The Directors consent to personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue Dallas County in the State of
Texas. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to (i) a Director’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary or
Affiliate and/or (ii) the Plan, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration
Association in accordance with its Employment Arbitration Rules before a single arbitrator in Dallas, Texas, and judgment on the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Company and the Director will each be
responsible for their own attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in connection with any such arbitration. The decision arrived
at by the arbitrator shall be binding upon all parties to the arbitration and no appeal shall lie therefrom, except as provided by
the Federal Arbitration Act. These arbitration procedures are intended to be the exclusive method of resolving any claim or dispute
arising out of or related to this Plan, including the applicability of this Section; provided, however, that any party seeking
injunctive relief in connection with a breach or anticipated breach of the Plan will do so in a state or federal court of competent
jurisdiction within Dallas County in the State of Texas.

 

    14

     

    

 

13.16     Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, it is intended that all benefits under this Plan that are subject
to Code Section 409A, including vested Stock Compensation that has been deferred pursuant to Article 7, shall satisfy the provisions
of Code Section 409A, and this Plan shall be interpreted and administered, as necessary, to comply with such provisions.

 

13.17     Notices. Notices and elections under this Plan must be in writing. A notice or election is deemed delivered if it is delivered personally
or if it is mailed by registered or certified mail to the person at their last known business address.

 

13.18     Waiver. The waiver of a breach of any provision in this Plan does not operate as and may not be construed as a waiver of any later
breach.

 

As
evidence of its adoption of this Plan, the Company has caused this document to be executed by its duly authorized officer the ____ day
