NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto hereby mutually covenant and agree as follows:
1.    Incorporation By Reference; Plan Document Receipt.  This Agreement is subject in all respects to the terms and provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, any amendments thereto adopted at any time and from time to time unless such amendments are expressly intended not to apply to the Award provided hereunder), all of which terms and provisions are made a part of and incorporated in this Agreement as if they were each expressly set forth herein.  Any capitalized term not defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as is ascribed thereto in the Plan.  The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a true copy of the Plan and that the Participant has read the Plan carefully and fully understands its contents.

Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, the Participant agrees and understands that nothing contained in this Agreement provides, or is intended to provide, the Participant with any protection against potential future dilution of the Participant’s interest in the Company for any reason.  The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by the Option unless and until the Participant has become the holder of record of such Shares, and no adjustments shall be made for dividends in cash or other property, distributions or other rights in respect of any such Shares, except as otherwise specifically provided for in the Plan or this Agreement.
3.    Vesting and Exercise.
(a)    Vesting.  Subject to the provisions of Sections 3 hereof, the shall vest as follows, provided that the Participant is continuously serving as a Director, 100% on the first anniversary of the Grant Date specified above.  Upon expiration of the Option, the Option shall be cancelled and no longer exercisable.  
(b)    Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the Option at any time and for any reason.
(c)    Termination by Reason of Death or Disability.  If the Participant’s Termination is by reason of death or Disability, all Options that are held by such Participant at the time of the Participant’s Termination that have not otherwise vested shall be immediately fully vested and become exercisable as of the date of such Termination and may be exercised by the Participant (or, in the case of death, by the legal representative of the Participant’s estate) at any time within a one (1)-year period from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Options.
(d)    Termination of Service other than for Cause.  If a Participant’s Termination is pursuant to Section 4 of Article V of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company or Section 2.2(d) of the Director Nomination Agreement made and entered into as of April 22, 2016 by and among the Company and certain parties identified therein, in either case, for a reason other than Cause (as defined herein), all Options that are held by such Participant at the time of the Participant’s

(h)        Beneficiary Designation.  In the event an amount becomes payable pursuant to this Section 3 on account of the Participant’s Termination of service due to death, or the Participant becomes entitled to receive an amount pursuant to this Section and the Participant dies prior to receiving any or all of the amounts to which the Participant is due, then the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3 shall be made to the beneficiary or beneficiaries (which may include individuals, trusts or other legal entities) designated by the Participant on the form attached hereto as Attachment 1 or as otherwise provided by and filed with the Company prior to the Participant’s death (the “Beneficiary Designation Form”). If the Participant fails to designate a beneficiary or fails to file the Beneficiary Designation Form with the Company prior to the Participant’s death, such amounts shall be made to the Participant’s estate. If a named beneficiary entitled to receive payments pursuant to the Beneficiary Designation Form dies at a time when additional payments still remain to be paid, then and in any such event, such remaining payments shall be paid to the other primary beneficiary or beneficiaries named by the Participant who shall then be living or in existence, if any, otherwise to the contingent beneficiary or beneficiaries named by the Participant who shall then be living or in existence, if any; otherwise to the estate of the Participant.
4.    Method of Exercise and Payment.  Subject to Section 9 hereof, to the extent that the Option has become vested and exercisable with respect to a number of Shares as provided herein, the Option may thereafter be exercised by the Participant, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the expiration of the Option as provided herein and in accordance with Sections 7.5 and 7.6 of the Plan.  No Shares resulting from the exercise of an Option shall be issued until full payment therefore has been made as set forth in the Plan.

3

5.    Non-Transferability.  The Option, and any rights and interests with respect thereto, issued under this Agreement and the Plan shall not be sold, exchanged, transferred, assigned or otherwise disposed of in any way by the Participant (or any beneficiary of the Participant), other than by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution.  Any attempt to sell, exchange, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of or hypothecate in any way the Option, or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar legal process upon the Option, contrary to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and/or the Plan shall be null and void and without legal force or effect.
6.    Securities Representations.  Upon the exercise of the Option prior to the registration of the Shares to be issued hereunder pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Securities Act”), the Participant shall be deemed to acknowledge and make the following representations and warranties and as otherwise may be requested by the Company for compliance with applicable laws, and any issuances of Shares by the Company hereunder shall be made in reliance upon the express representations and warranties of the Participant:
(a)    The Participant is acquiring and will hold the Shares to be issued hereunder for investment for the Participant’s account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or other applicable securities laws.
(b)    The Participant will not Transfer the Shares deliverable upon exercise of the Option in violation of the Plan, this Agreement, the Securities Act (or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) or under any other applicable securities laws.  The Participant agrees that the Participant will not dispose of the Shares to be issued hereunder unless and until the Participant has complied with all requirements of the Plan and this Agreement applicable to the disposition of such Shares.
(c)    The Participant has been furnished with, and has had access to, such information as the Participant considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to invest in the Shares to be issued hereunder, and the Participant has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance of such Shares.
(d)    The Participant is aware that an investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss.  The Participant is able, without impairing the Participant’s financial condition, to hold the Shares to be issued hereunder for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of the Participant’s investment in such Shares.
7.    Entire Agreement; Amendment.  This Agreement, together with the Plan, contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior agreements or prior understandings, whether written or oral, between the parties relating to such subject matter.  The Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or amend this Agreement from time to time in accordance with and as provided in the 

4

Plan.  This Agreement may also be modified or amended by a writing signed by both the Company and the Participant.  The Company shall give written notice to the Participant of any such modification or amendment of this Agreement as soon as practicable after the adoption thereof.
8.    Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.
9.    Withholding of Tax.  To the extent the Company is required to withhold any taxes in connection with any payment made or benefit realized under this Agreement, and the amounts available to the Company are insufficient, it will be a condition to the receipt of such payment or the realization of such benefit that the Participant or such other applicable person shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for payment of such taxes required to be withheld, which arrangements (in the discretion of the Committee) may include relinquishment of a portion of such benefit.  If such benefit is to be in the form of Shares and the Participant fails to make arrangements for the payment of tax, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Company will withhold Shares having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant is required to pay an amount required to be withheld, the Participant may elect, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, to satisfy the obligation, in whole or in part, by having withheld, from the Shares required to be delivered hereunder, Shares having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld or by delivering to the Company other Shares held by the Participant.  Shares used for withholding will be valued at the market value of such Shares on the date the benefit is to be included in Participant’s income and such market value will in no event exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld.
10.    No Right to Employment or Service.  Nothing in this Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate the Participant’s service at any time, for any reason and with or without Cause.  Any questions as to whether and when there has been a termination of such service and the cause of such termination shall be determined in good faith of the Committee.  
11.    Notices.  Any notice which may be required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing, and shall be delivered in person or via facsimile transmission, overnight courier service or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, properly addressed as follows:
(a)    If such notice is to the Company, to the attention of the General Counsel of the Company or at such other address as the Company, by notice to the Participant, shall designate in writing from time to time.
(b)    If such notice is to the Participant, at his/her address as shown on the Company’s records, or at such other address as the Participant, by notice to the Company, shall designate in writing from time to time.
12.    Transfer of Personal Data.  The Participant authorizes, agrees and unambiguously consents to the transmission by the Company (or any Subsidiary) of any personal 

5

data information related to the Option awarded under this Agreement for legitimate business purposes (including, without limitation, the administration of the Plan).  This authorization and consent is freely given by the Participant.
13.    Compliance with Laws.  The issuance of the Option (and the Option Shares upon exercise of the Option) pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to, and shall comply with, any applicable requirements of any foreign and U.S. federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations and any other law or regulation applicable thereto.  The Company shall not be obligated to issue the Option or any of the Option Shares pursuant to this Agreement if any such issuance would violate any such requirements.  As a condition to the issuance of the Option Shares upon exercise of the Option, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation.
14.    Section 409A.  Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Plan to the contrary, the Option is intended to be exempt from the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent.
15.    Binding Agreement; Assignment.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, be binding upon, and be enforceable by the Company and its successors and assigns.  The Participant shall not assign (except in accordance with Section 5 hereof) any part of this Agreement without the prior express written consent of the Company.
16.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.
17.    Headings.  The titles and headings of the various sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement.
18.    Further Assurances.  Each party hereto shall do and perform (or shall cause to be done and performed) all such further acts and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as either party hereto reasonably may request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the Plan and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereunder.
19.    Severability.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or the validity, legality or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction, it being intended that all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
