1.                 
Award of Restricted Shares. The Company
hereby grants to Participant this Award for the Number of Restricted Shares set forth above (the “Restricted Shares”),
subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in the Plan and this Award Agreement.

 

2.                 
Restrictions on Shares. Except as provided
in the Plan or this Agreement, the Participant’s unvested Restricted Shares shall be subject to forfeiture by the Participant
if the Participant ceases to provide Continuous Service to the Company or an Affiliate, whether as an Employee, Director or Consultant.

 

3.                 
Vesting Schedule. The Award shall initially
be unvested. The Award shall vest, and the restrictions on the Restricted Shares shall lapse, in accordance with the following
schedule, provided Participant is in Continuous Service with the Company (or an Affiliate) on the applicable Vesting Date:

 

	Vesting  Percentage	Vesting Date
	 	 
	 	 
	 	 

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide that the restrictions on all outstanding Restricted Shares
granted pursuant to this Agreement will immediately lapse prior to the consummation of a Change in Control, provided the Participant
remains in Continuous Service as of such date. If the Plan Administrator exercises such discretion with respect to the Restricted
Shares, the Restricted Shares will vest to the extent

 

    	 	1	 

     

    

provided by the Plan Administrator prior
to the consummation of the Change in Control at such time and on such conditions as the Plan Administrator determines.

 

4.                 
Shares Issued. If the Company desires
to evidence this Award by means of certificated shares, the Company shall issue a certificate in the name of Participant for the
number of Restricted Shares granted or purchased, as applicable, which certificate shall be deposited with the Company (or an escrow
agent designated by the Company) (the “Escrow Holder”), together with a stock power, in the form attached
hereto as Appendix I, endorsed in blank. Upon the lapse of the restrictions, the Escrow Holder shall deliver to Participant
(or his or her personal representative, estate or heirs, as the case may be) Share certificates for the Shares of the Company deposited
with it without any legend, except as otherwise provided by the Plan, this Agreement, or as otherwise required by applicable law,
or as counsel to the Company may deem appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator, in its discretion, may
require the Company to retain possession of any certificate evidencing Shares issued under this Award, if those Shares remain subject
to repurchase or redemption under the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement between the Company and the Participant.

 

5.                 
Consent of Spouse. If the Participant
is married as of the date of this Agreement, the Participant’s spouse shall execute and deliver to the Company a Consent
of Spouse in the form attached hereto as Appendix II, effective on the date hereof. Notwithstanding the execution and delivery
thereof, such consent shall not be deemed to confer or convey to the spouse any rights in the Restricted Shares that
do not otherwise exist by operation of law or the agreement of the parties. If the Participant should marry or remarry subsequent
to the date of this Agreement, the Participant shall within 60 days thereafter obtain his or her new spouse’s acknowledgement
of and consent to the existence and binding effect of all restrictions contained in this Agreement by such spouse’s executing
and delivering a Consent of Spouse in the form of Appendix II.

 

6.                 
Restrictions on Transfer. Prior to vesting,
Participant may not transfer his or her rights with respect to the Shares, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law
or otherwise, unless approved by the Plan Administrator. Immediately upon any attempt to make an unapproved transfer of such rights,
such Shares, and all of the rights related thereto, shall be forfeited by Participant.

 

7.                 
No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in the
Plan or this Agreement shall confer on Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or other relationship with, the Company
or any Affiliate, or limit in any way the right of the Company, or as applicable, an Affiliate to terminate Participant's employment
or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

 

8.                 
Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise
provided herein, commencing upon the date the Company transfers Restricted Shares to Participant, Participant shall have all the
rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Shares registered in his or her name, including the right
to vote such Restricted Shares and receive dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect to such Restricted Shares.

 

9.                 
Compliance with Laws and Regulations.
The issuance and transfer of the Shares will be subject to, and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and the Participant
with, all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations and all applicable requirements

 

    	 	2	 

     

    

of any stock exchange or automated quotation
system on which the Shares may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer.

 

10.             
Tax Consequences. Set forth below is a
brief summary as of the Effective Date of the Plan of some of the federal and state tax consequences of holding Restricted Shares.
THIS SUMMARY IS NECESSARILY INCOMPLETE, AND THE TAX LAWS AND REGULATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. PARTICIPANT SHOULD CONSULT A TAX
ADVISOR BEFORE ACCEPTING THIS AWRD.

 

10.1         
Grant of Award. There will be no regular federal or state income tax liability upon the grant of the Award.

 

10.2         
Lapse of Restrictions. Except to the extent a proper election under Section 83(b) of the Code has been made, the
excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date on which the restrictions lapse over the amount paid for the Restricted
Shares, if any, shall be includible as compensation income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) in the Participant’s taxable
income for the calendar year in which the restrictions lapse. In the event a proper Section 83(b) election has been made, the Participant
shall include as compensation income in the Participant’s taxable income for the calendar year in which the Restricted Shares
were transferred to Participant an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date on which the Shares
were transferred over the aggregate Purchase Price paid for the Shares, if any. If Participant is a current or former Employee
of the Company, the Company may be required to withhold from Participant’s compensation, or collect from Participant, and
pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this income at the time of payment.

 

10.3         
Holding Restricted Shares. There may be a regular federal and state income tax liability resulting from holding Restricted
Shares. Participant will be treated as having received income (taxable at ordinary income tax rates) equal to the dividends or
other income paid with respect to Restricted Shares granted under this Agreement. If Participant is a current or former employee
of the Company, the Company may be required to withhold from Participant’s compensation, or collect from Participant, and
pay to the applicable taxing authorities an amount equal to a percentage of this income at the time of payment. In the event a
proper Section 83(b) election has been made, or following the lapse of the restrictions described in this Agreement, the Participant
shall be treated as having received income (taxable at income tax rates applicable to dividends) equal to the dividends or other
income paid with respect to Restricted Shares granted under this Agreement.

 

10.4         
Disposition of Restricted Shares. If the Restricted Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months following the
Award Date, any gain realized on disposition of the Restricted Shares to the Company will be treated as long-term capital gain.

 

10.5         
Tax Liability and Withholding.

 

(i)                
Withholding Upon Lapse of Restrictions. No later than the date as of which the restrictions in Section 3 hereof
lapse with respect to all or any

 

    	 	3	 

     

    

portion of the Restricted Shares
awarded under this Agreement, Participant shall pay to the Company (in cash, including check, bank draft or money order, or such
other method approved by the Company) any applicable federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld
by the Company, if any, with respect to the Shares for which the restrictions have lapsed. Subject to the Plan Administrator’s
authorization, Participant may provide for payment of the Company's withholding obligation by submitting Shares, the Fair Market
Value of which equals the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by the Company. The Company (or any Affiliate) shall,
to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment of any kind otherwise due to Participant any federal,
state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to such Shares.

 

(ii)             
Withholding Upon Section 83(b) Election. If Participant properly elects, in the form attached hereto as Appendix
III, within thirty (30) days of the date on which Company transfers Shares to Participant in accordance with this Agreement,
to include in gross income for federal income tax purposes an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Restricted Shares awarded
hereunder pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, Participant shall pay to the Company (in cash, including check, bank draft or
money order, or such other method approved by the Company) any applicable federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by
law to be withheld by the Company, if any, with respect to the Shares for which such election was made. If Participant fails to
make such payments, the Company (or any Affiliate) shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct from any payment
of any kind otherwise due to Participant any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect
to such Shares.

 

11.             
Notices. Any notice required to be given
or delivered to the Plan Administrator or the Company under the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing (including a writing
delivered by facsimile transmission or electronic mail) and addressed to the Plan Administrator at the principal corporate office
of the Company. Any notice required to be given or delivered to Participant shall be in writing (including a writing delivered
by facsimile transmission or electronic mail) and addressed to Participant at the address indicated above or to such other address
as such party may designate in writing from time to time to the Plan Administrator. All notices shall be deemed to have been given
or delivered upon: (a) personal delivery; (b) five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail by certified or registered
mail (return receipt requested); (c) one (1) business day after deposit with any return receipt express courier (prepaid); or (d)
when receipt is acknowledged after transmission by facsimile or electronic mail.

 

12.

the interpretation of this Agreement shall be resolved by the Plan Administrator, which decision shall be final and binding on
the Company and Participant.

Successors and Assigns. The Company may
assign any of its rights under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors

binding upon Participant and Participant’s
heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives and designated beneficiary.

 

14.             
Governing Law. To the extent not otherwise
preempted by federal law, the validity, construction and effect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to its conflict of law principles.

 

15.             
Choice of Forum. Participant hereby irrevocably
and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of Delaware (and if
jurisdiction in the state courts of Delaware shall be unavailable, the Federal courts of the United States of America sitting in
the state of Delaware), and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Award Agreement, the Shares issued in connection herewith or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and
Participant hereby (i) agrees not commence any such action or proceeding except in the state courts of Delaware (and if jurisdiction
in the state courts of Delaware shall be unavailable, the Federal courts of the United States of America sitting in the state of
Delaware), (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in the state courts
of Delaware (and if jurisdiction in the state courts of Delaware shall be unavailable, the Federal courts of the United States
of America sitting in the state of Delaware), and any appellate court from any thereof, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it
may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or
proceeding in the state courts of Delaware (and if jurisdiction in the state courts of Delaware shall be unavailable, the Federal
courts of the United States of America sitting in the state of Delaware), and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally
and effectively do so, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in the state courts
of Delaware (and if jurisdiction in the state courts of Delaware shall be unavailable, the Federal courts of the United States
of America sitting in the state of Delaware).

 

16.             
Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES
HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO A DISPUTE
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AWARD AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM WITH RESPECT THERETO.

 

17.             
Amendment of Award. The Plan Administrator may amend, modify or terminate this Agreement at any
time prior to vesting in any manner not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan; provided, however, that Participant’s rights
under this Award shall not be impaired by such amendment unless Participant consents in writing.

 

18.             
Counterparts. This Award Agreement may
be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same
instrument. Counterpart signature pages to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in portable
document format (.pdf), or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of
a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing an original signature.

19.             
Severability. If any provision of this
Award Agreement is determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, then such provision will be enforced to the maximum
extent possible and the other provisions will remain fully effective and enforceable.

Voluntary Termination of Service. In the event Participant is terminated for any reason (other than upon Participant’s

Date and (B) the Expiration Date. If, after termination, Participant does not exercise this SAR within the time specified herein,
the SAR shall terminate and will no longer be exercisable.

 

(ii)             
Death of Participant. In the event Participant is terminated by reason of Participant’s death, Participant’s
estate, heirs or designated beneficiary, as applicable, may thereafter exercise the SAR (to the extent that Participant was entitled
to exercise the SAR as of the Termination Date) but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (A) the first anniversary
of Participant’s death and (B) the Expiration Date. If, after Participant’s death, Participant’s estate or heirs

3.2             
Manner of Exercise.

 

(i)                
SAR Exercise Agreement. To exercise the SAR, Participant (or his legal representative, estate, heirs, or designated
beneficiary, as the case may be) must deliver to the Company an executed Exercise Agreement in the form attached hereto as Appendix
I, and, if applicable, spousal consent, and such other documents as may be required by the Company and the Plan Administrator.
If someone other than Participant exercises the SAR, then such person must submit documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company
verifying that such person has the legal right to exercise the SAR under the Plan. The SAR shall be deemed exercised as of the
date: (i) the Company receives (A) the fully executed Exercise Agreement, including spousal consent if applicable and (B) payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price, and (ii) all other applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan are satisfied
as determined in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator.

 

(ii)             
Limitations on Exercise. This Award must be exercised in respect to whole Shares and may not be exercised in respect
to less than one (1) Share.

 

(iii)           
Settlement. Following Plan Administrator’s receipt of the Exercise Agreement, the SAR granted hereunder shall
entitle Participant to receive the Spread to be paid in cash, or by delivery to Participant of whole Shares of Common Stock valued
on the Exercise Date, or by any combination of the foregoing, as the Plan Administrator shall, in its sole and absolute discretion,
determine appropriate. If Shares are issued in settlement of the Exercised SARs, Participant shall become a stockholder of record.
The Company may, but is not required to, issue certificated Shares registered in the name of Participant, which may include the
appropriate legends affixed thereto.

 

(iv)            
Tax Withholding. Unless otherwise determined by Plan Administrator, the amount payable to Participant upon exercise
of the Award shall be reduced by the applicable amount of taxes required to be withheld. The Company shall remit the applicable
tax withholding to the applicable taxing authorities.

 

Section
4.               Consent
of Spouse. If the Participant is married as of the date of this Agreement, the Participant’s spouse shall
execute and deliver to the Company a Consent of Spouse in the form attached hereto as Appendix II, effective on the date
hereof. Notwithstanding the execution and delivery thereof, such consent shall not be deemed to confer or convey to the spouse
any rights in the Restricted Shares that do not otherwise exist by operation of law or the
agreement of the parties. If the Participant should marry or remarry subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Participant
shall within 60 days thereafter obtain his or her new spouse’s acknowledgement of and consent to the existence and binding
effect of all restrictions contained in this Agreement by such spouse’s executing and delivering a Consent of Spouse in the
form of Appendix II.

Disposition of Shares. To the extent that Participant has, upon exercise of the SAR, received payment in the form
of Shares of Common Stock, in the event that any such Shares are held for more than twelve (12) months after the date of the transfer

for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and the Company (a) makes no representation or
undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with the grant, vesting, or payment of the SARs or

the maintenance of such action or proceeding in the state courts of Delaware (and if jurisdiction in the state courts of Delaware
