EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN 
 1.    Purposes of the Plan; Award Types. 

(a) Purposes of the Plan. The purposes of this Plan are to attract and retain personnel for positions with the Company Group,
to provide additional incentive to Employees, Directors, and Consultants (collectively, “Service Providers”), and to promote the success of the Company’s business. 

(b) Award Types. The Plan permits the grant of Incentive Stock Options to any ISO Employee and the grant of Nonstatutory Stock Options,
Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Awards to any Service Provider. 

2.    Definitions. The following definitions are used in this Plan: 

(a) “Administrator” means Administrator as defined in Section 4(a). 

(b) “Applicable Laws” means the legal and regulatory requirements relating to the administration of equity-based awards,
including but not limited to the related issuance of Shares under U.S. federal and state corporate laws, U.S. federal and state securities laws, the Code, any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted and, only
to the extent applicable with respect to an Award or Awards, the tax, securities, exchange control, and other laws of any jurisdictions other than the United States where Awards are, or will be, granted under the Plan. Reference to a section of an
Applicable Law or regulation related to that section shall include such section or regulation, any valid regulation issued under such section, and any comparable provision of any future legislation or regulation amending, supplementing or
superseding such section or regulation. 
 (c) “Award” means, individually or collectively, a grant under the Plan of
Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, or Performance Awards. 
 (d) “Award
Agreement” means the written or electronic agreement setting forth the terms applicable to an Award granted under the Plan. The Award Agreement is subject to the terms of the Plan. 

(e) “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 

(f) “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events: 

(i) A change in the ownership of the Company which occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group
(“Person”), acquires ownership of the 

 
stock of the Company that, with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; provided, that for this subsection, the
acquisition of additional stock by any one Person, who prior to such acquisition is considered to own more than 50% of the total voting power of the stock of the Company will not be considered a Change in Control and provided, further, that any
change in the ownership of the stock of the Company as a result of a private financing of the Company that is approved by the Board also will not be considered a Change in Control. Further, if the stockholders of the Company immediately before such
change in ownership continue to retain immediately after the change in ownership, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company’s voting stock immediately prior to the change in ownership, direct or indirect
beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company or of the ultimate parent entity of the Company, such event shall not be considered a Change in Control under this Section 2(f)(i). For this purpose,
indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting securities of one or more corporations or other business entities which own the Company, as the case may be, either directly or
through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business entities; or 
 (ii) A change in the effective control of the Company which
occurs on the date a majority of members of the Board is replaced during any 12-month period by Directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board prior to the appointment or election. For purposes of
this Section 2(f)(ii), if any Person is considered to be in effective control of the Company, the acquisition of additional control of the Company by the same Person will not be considered a Change in Control; or 

(iii) A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or
has acquired during the 12-month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such Person or Persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than 50% of the total gross fair market
value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions; provided, that for this Section 2(f)(iii), the following will not constitute a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the
Company’s assets: 
 (1) a transfer to an entity controlled by the Company’s stockholders immediately after the transfer, or 

(2) a transfer of assets by the Company to: 

(A) a stockholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to the Company’s stock,

 (B) an entity, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, 

(C) a Person, that owns, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of the
Company, or 
 (D) an entity, at least 50% of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Person
described in Section 2(f)(iii)(2)(A) to Section 2(f)(iii)(2)(C).

 For purposes of
this Section 2(f), persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business transaction with the Company. For the
avoidance of doubt, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company shall not be considered “Persons” for purposes of this Section 2(f). 

(iv) A transaction will not be a Change in Control: 

(1) unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Code Section 409A; or 

(2) if its primary purpose is to (1) change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (2) create a holding company
owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction. 

(g) “Code” means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Reference to a section of the Code or regulation related
to that section shall include such section or regulation, any valid regulation issued or other official applicable guidance of general or direct applicability promulgated under such section or regulation, and any comparable provision of any future

Securities Act is permitted.

standards adopted by the Administrator from time to time.

 (o) “Employee” means any person, including Officers and Directors,
providing services as an employee to the Company or any member of the Company Group. However, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, an Employee must be employed by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company (such an Employee, an
“ISO Employee”). Notwithstanding, Options awarded to individuals not providing services to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company should be carefully structured to comply with the payment timing rule of Code Section 409A.
Neither service as a Director nor payment of a director’s fee by the Company will constitute “employment” by the Company. 

(p) “Exchange Act” means the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

(q) “Exchange Program” means a program under which (i) outstanding Awards are surrendered or cancelled in exchange for
awards of the same type (which may have higher or lower Exercise Prices and different terms), awards of a different type, and/or cash, (ii) Participants would have the opportunity to transfer any outstanding Awards to a financial institution or

(s) “Expiration Date” means the last possible day on which an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised. Any

trading on the Expiration Date. 
 (t) “Fair Market Value” means, as of any date, the value of a Share, determined as
follows: 
 (i) If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or a national market system, including without limitation
the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NASDAQ Capital Market of The NASDAQ Stock Market, the Fair Market Value will be the closing sales price for a Share (or the closing bid, if no sales were
reported) as quoted on such exchange or system on the day of determination, as reported by such source as the Administrator determines to be reliable. If the determination date for the Fair Market Value occurs on a non-Trading Day (i.e., a weekend or holiday), the Fair Market Value will be such price on the immediately preceding Trading Day, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator; 

(ii) If the Common Stock is regularly quoted by a recognized securities dealer but selling prices are not reported, the Fair Market Value of
a Share will be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for the Common Stock on the day of determination (or, if no bids and asks were reported on that date on the last Trading Day such bids and asks were reported), as reported by such

initial price to the public set forth in the final prospectus included within the registration statement on Form S-1 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for the initial public
offering of the Common Stock; or 
 (iv) Absent an established market for the Common Stock, the Fair Market Value will be determined in
good faith by the Administrator. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the determination date for the Fair Market Value occurs on a weekend,
holiday or other day other than a Trading Day, the Fair Market Value will be the price as determined under subsections (t)(i) or (t)(ii) above on the immediately preceding Trading Day, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. In addition,
for purposes of determining the fair market value of shares for any reason other than the determination of the Exercise Price of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, fair market value will be determined by the Administrator in a manner compliant
with Applicable Laws and applied consistently for such purpose. Note that the determination of fair market value for purposes of tax withholding may be made in the Administrator’s sole discretion subject to Applicable Laws and is not required
to be consistent with the determination of Fair Market Value for other purposes.

Awards that are reacquired by the Company due to failure to vest or are forfeited to the Company will become available for future issuance under the Plan. 

(iv) Withheld Shares. Shares used to pay the Exercise Price of an Award or to satisfy Tax Withholdings related to an Award will
become available for future issuance under the Plan. 
 (v) Cash-Settled Awards. If
any portion of an Award under the Plan is paid to a Participant in cash rather than Shares, that cash payment will not reduce the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan. 

(d) Incentive Stock Options. The maximum number of Shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options will equal

the Plan. 
 (g) Share Reserve. The Company, during the term of this Plan, will at all times reserve and keep available such number
of Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 

  
 8 

 4. Administration of the Plan.  

(a) Procedure. 
 (i) The
Plan will be administered by the Board or a Committee (the “Administrator”). Different Administrators may administer the Plan with respect to different groups of Service Providers. The Board may retain the authority to concurrently
administer the Plan with a Committee and may revoke the delegation of some or all authority previously delegated. 
 (ii) To the extent
permitted by Applicable Laws, the Board or a Committee may delegate to one or more subcommittees of the Board or a Committee or officers the authority to grant Awards to Employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that the
delegation must comply with any limitations on the authority required by Applicable Laws, including the total number of Shares that may be subject to the Awards granted by such officer(s). This delegation may be revoked at any time by the Board or
Committee. 
 (b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the terms of the Plan, any limitations on delegations specified by the
Board, and any requirements imposed by Applicable Laws, the Administrator will have the authority, in its sole discretion, to make any determinations and perform any actions deemed necessary or advisable to administer the Plan including: 

(i) to determine the Fair Market Value; 

(ii) to approve forms of Award Agreements for use under the Plan; 

(iii) to select the Service Providers to whom Awards may be granted and grant Awards to such Service Providers; 

(iv) to determine the number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted; 

(v) to determine the terms and conditions, consistent with the Plan, of any Award granted. Such terms and conditions may include, but are not
limited to, the Exercise Price, the time(s) when Awards may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award or the
Shares relating to an Award; 
 (vi) to institute and determine the terms and conditions of an Exchange Program; 

(vii) to construe and interpret the Plan and make any decisions necessary to administer the Plan, including but not limited to determining
whether and when a Change in Control has occurred; 
 (viii) to establish, amend and rescind rules and regulations and adopt sub-plans relating to the Plan, including rules, regulations and sub-plans for the purposes of facilitating compliance with applicable
non-U.S. laws, easing the administration of the Plan and/or obtaining tax-favorable treatment for Awards granted to Service Providers located outside the U.S., in each
case as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable; 

  
 9 

 (ix) to interpret, modify or amend each Award (subject to Section 18), including
extending the Expiration Date and the post-termination exercisability period of such modified or amended Awards; 
 (x) to allow
Participants to satisfy tax withholding obligations in any manner permitted by Section 15; 
 (xi) to delegate ministerial duties to
any of the Company’s employees; 
 (xii) to authorize any person to take any steps and execute, on behalf of the Company, any
documents required for an Award previously granted by the Administrator to be effective; 
 (xiii) to temporarily suspend the
exercisability of an Award if the Administrator deems such suspension to be necessary or appropriate for administrative purposes, provided that, unless prohibited by Applicable Laws, such suspension shall be lifted in all cases not less than 10
Trading Days before the last date that the Award may be exercised; 
 (xiv) to allow Participants to defer the receipt of the payment of
cash or the delivery of Shares otherwise due to any such Participants under an Award; and 
 (xv) to make any determinations necessary or
appropriate under Section 13. 
 (c) Grant Date. The grant date of an Award (“Grant Date”) will be
the date that the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award or may be a later date if such later date is designated by the Administrator on the date of the determination or under an automatic grant policy. Notice of the determination
will be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the Grant Date. 
 (d) Waiver. The Administrator may waive any
terms, conditions or restrictions. 
 (e)Fractional Shares. Except as otherwise provided by the Administrator, any fractional
Shares that result from the adjustment of Awards will be canceled. Any fractional Shares that result from vesting percentages will be accumulated and vested on the date that an accumulated full Share is vested. 

(f) Electronic Delivery. The Company may deliver by e-mail or other electronic means
(including posting on a website maintained by the Company or by a third party under contract with the Company or another member of the Company Group) all documents relating to the Plan or any Award and all other documents that the Company is
required to deliver to its security holders (including prospectuses, annual reports and proxy statements). 
 (g) Choice of Law;
Choice of Forum. The Plan, all Awards and all determinations made and actions taken under the Plan, to the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving
effect to principles of conflicts of law. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this Plan, a Participant’s acceptance of an Award is his or her consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, and agreement that any such
litigation will be conducted in Delaware Court of Chancery, or the federal courts for the United States for the District of Delaware, and no other courts, regardless of where a Participant’s services are performed. 

  
 10 

 (h) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. The Administrator’s decisions,
determinations and interpretations will be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards. 

5.    Eligibility. 

(a) General. Nonstatutory Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Awards may
be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. 
 (b) Director Compensation Limits. No
Outside Director may be paid, issued or granted, in any Fiscal Year, cash retainer fees and equity awards (including any Awards issued under this Plan) with an aggregate value greater than $800,000 (with the value of each equity award based on its
grant date fair value (determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles)). Any cash compensation paid or Awards granted to an individual for his or her services as an Employee, or for his or her services as a Consultant
(other than as an Outside Director), will not count for purposes of the limitation under this Section 5(b). 

6.    Stock Options. 

(a) Stock Option Award Agreement. Each Option will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the number of
Shares subject to the Option, per share Exercise Price, its Expiration Date, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator determines. Each Option will be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonstatutory Stock Option. An Option not designated as an Incentive Stock Option is a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 
 (b) Exercise
Price. The Exercise Price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option will be determined by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement, subject to the following: 

(i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option: 

(1) granted to an ISO Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the
voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (a “Ten Percent Owner”), the Exercise Price for the Shares to be issued will be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of
grant; and 

  
 11 

 (2) granted to any ISO Employee other than a Ten Percent Owner, the Exercise Price for the
Shares to be issued will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 
 (ii) In the case of a
Nonstatutory Stock Option, the Exercise Price for the Shares to be issued will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with an Exercise Price of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share
on the date of grant (i) pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code or (ii) to a Service Provider that is not a U.S. taxpayer. 

(c) Form of Consideration. The Administrator will determine the acceptable form(s) of consideration for exercising an Option.
Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the consideration may consist of any one or more or combination of the following, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws: 

(i) cash; 
 (ii) check or wire
transfer; 
 (iii) promissory note, if and to the extent approved by the Company; 

(iv) other Shares that have a fair market value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares as to which such
Option will be exercised. To the extent not prohibited by the Administrator, this shall include the ability to tender Shares to exercise the Option and then use the Shares received on exercise to exercise the Option with respect to additional
Shares; 
 (v) consideration received by the Company under a cashless exercise arrangement (whether through a broker or
otherwise) implemented by the Company for the exercise of Options that has been approved by the Administrator, if and to the extent permitted by the Company with respect to a particular Award; 

(vi) consideration received by the Company under a net exercise program under which Shares are withheld from otherwise deliverable Shares
that has been approved by the Administrator, if and to the extent permitted by the Company with respect to a particular Award; and 
 (vii)
any other consideration or method of payment to issue Shares (provided that other forms of considerations may be approved only by the Administrator). 
 The
Administrator has the power to remove or limit any of the above forms of consideration for exercising an Option except for the payment of cash at any time in its sole discretion. 

(d) Term of Option. The term of each Option will be determined by the Administrator and stated in the Award Agreement, provided that,
in the case of an Incentive Stock Option: (i) granted to a Ten Percent Owner, the Option may not be exercisable after the expiration of 5 years from the date such Option is granted, or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award

  
 12 

 
Agreement, and (ii) granted to an ISO Employee other than a Ten Percent Owner, the Option may not be exercisable after the expiration of 10 years from the date such Option is granted term,
or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. 
 (e) Incentive Stock Option Limitations.  

(i) To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of the shares with respect to which incentive stock options under Code
Section 422(b) are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under all plans and agreements of the Company Group) exceeds $100,000, the incentive stock options whose value exceeds $100,000 will be
treated as nonstatutory stock options. Incentive stock options will be considered in the order in which they were granted. For this purpose, the fair market value of the shares subject to an option will be determined as of the grant date of each
option. 
 (ii) If an Option is designated in the Administrator action that granted it as an Incentive Stock Option but the terms of the
Option do not comply with Sections 6(b) and 6(d), then the Option will not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option. 
 (f) Exercise of
Option. An Option is exercised when the Company receives: (i) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option and (ii) full payment for the
Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with applicable tax withholdings). Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the
entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to an Option, despite the exercise of
the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. Exercising an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares
thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan (except as provided in Section 3(c)) and for purchase under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 

(i) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon such
cessation as the result of the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within 30 days of such cessation, or such longer period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than
the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement or Section 6(d), as applicable) to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of cessation. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator or set forth in the
Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable, if on the date of such cessation the Participant is not vested as to his or her
entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan immediately. If after such cessation the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option will
terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. 
 (ii) Disability of Participant. If a Participant ceases
to be a Service Provider as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within 6 

  
 13 

 
months of cessation, or such longer period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement
or Section 6(d), as applicable) to the extent the Option is vested on the date of cessation. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator or set forth in the Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between
the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable, if on the date of cessation the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to
the Plan immediately. If after such cessation the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. 

(iii) Death of Participant. If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised within 6 months following the
Participant’s death, or within such longer period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement or Section 6(d), as applicable) to
the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death, by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided the Administrator has permitted the designation of a beneficiary and provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to the
Participant’s death in a form (if any) acceptable to the Administrator. If the Administrator has not permitted the designation of the beneficiary or if no such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be
exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. If the Option is
exercised pursuant to this Section 6(f)(iii), Participant’s designated beneficiary or personal representative shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and the Award Agreement, including but not limited to the restrictions on
transferability and forfeitability applicable to the Service Provider. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator or set forth in the Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable, if at the time of death Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan immediately. If the
Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan. 

(g) Expiration of Options. Subject to Section 6(d), an Option’s Expiration Date will be set forth in the Award
Agreement. An Option may expire before its expiration date under the Plan (including pursuant to Sections 6(f), 13, 14, or 16(d)) or under the Award Agreement. 

(h) Tolling of Expiration. If exercising an Option prior to its expiration is not permitted because of Applicable Laws, other
than the rules of any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted, the Option will remain exercisable until 30 days after the first date on which exercise no longer would be prevented by such provisions;
provided, however, that this tolling of expiration shall not apply if and to the extent the holder of such Option is a United States taxpayer and the tolling would result in a violation of Section 409A such that the Option would be subject to
additional taxation or interest under Section 409A. If this would result in the Option remaining exercisable past its Expiration Date, then unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 14, the Option will remain exercisable only until the
end of the later of (x) the first day on which its exercise would not be prevented by Section 19(a) and (y) its Expiration Date.

 7.    Stock Appreciation Rights.  

(a) Stock Appreciation Right Award Agreement. Each Stock Appreciation Right grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that
will specify the number of Shares subject to the Stock Appreciation Right, its per share Exercise Price, its Expiration Date, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator determines. 

(b) Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of a Stock Appreciation Right will be determined by the Administrator, provided that in the case
of a Stock Appreciation Right granted to a U.S. taxpayer, the Exercise Price will be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. 

(c) Payment of Stock Appreciation Right Amount. Payment upon Stock Appreciation Right exercise may be made in cash, in
Shares (which, on the date of exercise, have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount of payment to be made under the Award), or any combination of cash and Shares, with the determination of form of payment made by the Administrator. When
a Participant exercises a Stock Appreciation Right, he or she will be entitled to receive a payment from the Company equal to: 
 (i) the
excess, if any, between the fair market value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price multiplied by 
 (ii) the number of Shares
with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised. 
 (d) Exercise of Stock Appreciation Right. A Stock Appreciation
Right is exercised when the Company receives a notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right. Shares issued upon exercise of a Stock
Appreciation Right will be issued in the name of the Participant. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive
dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to a Stock Appreciation Right, despite the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such
Shares promptly after the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised. A Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. Exercising a Stock Appreciation Right in any manner will decrease (x) the number of
Shares thereafter available under the Stock Appreciation Right by the number of Shares as to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised and (y) the number of Shares thereafter available under the Plan by the number of Shares
issued upon such exercise. 
 (e) Expiration of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right’s Expiration Date will be
set forth in the Award Agreement. A Stock Appreciation Right may expire before its expiration date under the Plan (including pursuant to Sections 13, 14, or16(d)) or under the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of
Section 6(d) relating to the maximum term and Section 6(f) relating to exercise also will apply to Stock Appreciation Rights. 

(f) Tolling of Expiration. If exercising a Stock Appreciation Right prior to its expiration is not permitted because of
Applicable Laws, other than the rules of any stock exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted, the Stock Appreciation Right will remain exercisable until 30 days after the first date on which exercise no longer would
be prevented 

  
 15 

 
by such provisions; provided, however, that this tolling of expiration shall not apply if and to the extent the holder of such Stock Appreciation Right is a United States taxpayer and the tolling
would result in a violation of Section 409A such that the Stock Appreciation Right would be subject to additional taxation or interest under Section 409A. If this would result in the Stock Appreciation Right remaining exercisable past its
Expiration Date, then unless earlier terminated pursuant to Section 14, the Stock Appreciation Right will remain exercisable only until the end of the later of (x) the first day on which its exercise would not be prevented by
Section 19(a) and (y) its Expiration Date. 
 8.    Restricted Stock. 

(a) Restricted Stock Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will
specify the number of Shares subject to the Award of Restricted Stock and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator determines. For the avoidance of doubt, Restricted Stock may be granted without any Period of Restriction (e.g., vested
stock bonuses). Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, Shares of Restricted Stock will be held in escrow while unvested. 
 (b)
Restrictions. 
 (i) Except as provided in this Section 8(b) or the Award Agreement, while unvested, Shares of Restricted Stock
may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated. 
 (ii) While unvested, Service Providers holding Shares of
Restricted Stock may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise. 
 (iii)
Service Providers holding a Share covered by an Award of Restricted Stock will not be entitled to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares while such Shares are unvested, unless the Administrator provides otherwise.
If the Administrator provides that dividends and distributions will be received and any such dividends or distributions are paid in cash they will be subject to the same provisions regarding forfeitability as the Shares with respect to which they
were paid and if such dividend or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares with respect to which they were paid and, unless the Administrator determines
otherwise, the Company will hold such dividends until the restrictions on the Shares with respect to which they were paid have lapsed. 

(iv) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8(b) or an Award Agreement, a Share covered by each Award of Restricted Stock made
under the Plan will be released from escrow when practicable after the last day of the applicable Period of Restriction. 
 (v) The
Administrator may impose, prior to grant, or remove any restrictions on Shares covered by an Award of Restricted Stock. 

9.    Restricted Stock Units. 

(a) Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement. Each Award of Restricted Stock Units will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that
will specify the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to the Award of Restricted Stock Units and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator determines. 

  
 16 

 (b) Vesting Criteria and Other Terms. The Administrator will set vesting criteria, if
any, that, depending on the extent to which the criteria are met, will determine the number of Restricted Stock Units paid out to the Participant. The Administrator may set vesting criteria based upon the achievement of Company-wide, divisional,
business unit, or individual goals (that may include continued employment or service) or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. 

(c) Earning Restricted Stock Units. Upon meeting any applicable vesting criteria, the Participant will have earned the Restricted Stock
Units and will be paid as determined in Section 9(d). The Administrator may reduce or waive any criteria that must be met to earn the Restricted Stock Units. 

(d) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned Restricted Stock Units will be made at the time(s) set forth in the Award
Agreement and determined by the Administrator. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, the Administrator may settle earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination of both. 

10. Performance Awards. 

(a) Award Agreement. Each Performance Award will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify any time period during
which any performance objectives or other vesting provisions, if any, will be measured (“Performance Period”), and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator determines. 

(b) Objectives or Vesting Provisions and Other Terms. The Administrator will set objectives or vesting provisions that, depending on
the extent to which the objectives or vesting provisions are met, will determine the value of the payout for the Performance Awards. The Administrator may set vesting criteria based upon the achievement of Company-wide, divisional, business unit, or
individual goals (that may include continued employment or service) or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. 

(c) Form and Timing of Payment. Payment of earned Performance Awards will be made at the time(s) specified in the Award Agreement.
Payment with respect to earned Performance Awards will be made in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or any combination of cash and Shares, with the determination of form of payment made by the Administrator at the time of payment or, in the
discretion of the Administrator, at the time of grant. 
 (d) Value of Performance Awards. Each Performance Award’s
threshold, target, and maximum payout values will be established by the Administrator on or before the Grant Date. 
 (e) Earning
Performance Awards. After an applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of a Performance Award will be entitled to receive a payout for the Performance Award earned by the Participant over the Performance Period. The
Administrator may reduce or waive any performance objectives or other vesting provisions for such Performance Award. 

  
 17 

 11.    Leaves of Absence/ Reduced or Part-time Work
Schedule/Transfer Between Locations/Change of Status. 
 (a) Leaves of Absence/ Reduced or Part-time Work
Schedule/Transfer Between Locations. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise or as otherwise required by Applicable Laws, vesting of Awards granted hereunder will be adjusted or suspended during any unpaid leave of absence in
accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy in effect at the time of such leave. A Participant will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Company or (ii) transfers between
locations of the Company or within the Company Group. In addition, unless the Administrator provides otherwise or as otherwise required by Applicable Laws, if, after the date of grant of a Participant’s Award, the Participant commences working
on a part-time or reduced work schedule basis, the vesting of such Award will be adjusted in accordance with the Company’s reduced work schedule/ part-time policy then in effect. Adjustments or suspensions of vesting pursuant to this
Section shall be accomplished in a manner that is exempt from or complies with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the regulations and guidance thereunder. 

(b) Employment Status. A Participant will not cease to be a Service Provider in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by
the Company or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company (or member of the Company Group) or between the Company or any member of the Company Group. 

(c) Incentive Stock Options. With respect to Incentive Stock Options, no such leave may exceed 3 months, unless
reemployment upon expiration of such leave is guaranteed by statute or contract. If reemployment upon expiration of a leave of absence approved by the Company is not so guaranteed, then 6 months following the first day of such leave any Incentive
Stock Option held by a Participant will cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and will be treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 

12.    Transferability of Awards. Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, or otherwise required by
Applicable Laws, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by
the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, the Award will be limited by any additional terms and conditions imposed by the Administrator. Any unauthorized transfer of an Award will be void. 

13.    Adjustments; Dissolution or Liquidation. 

(a) Adjustments. If any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution (whether in cash, Shares, other securities, or other
property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, reclassification, repurchase, or
exchange of Shares or other securities of the Company, other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, or any similar equity restructuring transaction, as that term is used in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any of its successors) affecting the Shares occurs (including a Change in Control), the Administrator, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to
be provided under the Plan, will adjust the number and class of shares that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, and price of shares covered by each outstanding Award, and the numerical Share limits in Section 3.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company and ordinary course repurchases of Shares or other securities of the Company will not be treated as an event that will require adjustment. 

  
 18 

 (b)    Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the proposed
dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant, at such time prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction as the Administrator determines. To the extent it has not been previously exercised, an
Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action. 
 14.    Change in
Control or Merger.  
 (a)    Administrator Discretion. If a Change in Control or
a merger of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity occurs (each, a “Transaction”), each outstanding Award will be treated as the Administrator determines (subject to the provisions of this Section), without a
Participant’s consent, including that such Award be continued by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation (or an affiliate thereof) or that the vesting of any such Awards may accelerate automatically upon
consummation of a Transaction. 
 (b)    Identical Treatment Not Required. The Administrator need not take
the same action or actions with respect to all Awards or portions thereof or with respect to all Participants. The Administrator may take different actions with respect to the vested and unvested portions of an Award. The Administrator will not be
required to treat all Awards similarly in the Transaction. 
 (c)    Continuation. An Award will be considered
continued if, following the Change in Control or merger: 
 (i)    the Award confers the right to purchase or receive,
for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Transaction, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Transaction by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of the
Transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration received by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares) and the Award otherwise is continued in accordance with its terms (including vesting
criteria, subject to Section 14(c)(iii) below and Section 13(a)); provided that if the consideration received in the Transaction is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent
of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon exercising an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or upon the payout of a Restricted Stock Unit, or Performance Award, for each Share subject to such Award, to be solely
common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Transaction; or 

(ii)    the Award is terminated in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would
have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the Transaction. Any such cash or property may be subjected to any escrow applicable to holders of Common Stock in
the Change in Control. If as of the date of the occurrence of the Transaction the Administrator determines that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, then such Award may
be terminated by the Company without payment. The amount of cash or property can be subjected to vesting and paid to the Participant over the original vesting schedule of the Award. 

  
 19 

 (iii)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 14(c) to the
contrary, an Award that vests, is earned or paid-out upon the satisfaction of one or more performance goals will not be considered assumed if the Company or its successor modifies any of such performance goals
without the Participant’s consent, in all cases, unless specifically provided otherwise under the applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable; provided, however, a modification to such performance goals only to reflect the successor corporation’s post-Transaction corporate structure will not invalidate an otherwise valid Award assumption. 

(d)    Modification. The Administrator will have authority to modify Awards in connection with a Change in Control
or merger: 
 (i)    in a manner that causes the Awards to lose their
tax-preferred status; 
 (ii)    to terminate any right a Participant has to
exercise an Option prior to vesting in the Shares subject to the Option (i.e., “early exercise”), so that following the closing of the Transaction the Option may only be exercised only to the extent it is vested; 

(iii)    to reduce the Exercise Price subject to the Award in a manner that is disproportionate to the increase in the
number of Shares subject to the Award, as long as the amount that would be received upon exercise of the Award immediately before and immediately following the closing of the Transaction is equivalent and the adjustment complies with U.S. Treasury
Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(v)(D); and 
 (iv)    to suspend a
Participant’s right to exercise an Option during a limited period of time preceding and or following the closing of the Transaction without Participant consent if such suspension is administratively necessary or advisable to permit the closing
of the Transaction. 
 (e)    Non-Continuation. If the successor
corporation does not continue an Award (or some portion of such Award), the Participant will fully vest in (and have the right to exercise) 100% of the then-unvested Shares subject to his or her outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation
Rights, all restrictions on 100% of the Participant’s outstanding Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units will lapse, and, regarding 100% of Participant’s outstanding Awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals or
other vesting criteria will be treated as achieved at 100% of target levels and all other terms and conditions met, in all cases, unless specifically provided otherwise under the applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by
the Administrator between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable. In no event will vesting of an Award accelerate as to more than 100% of the Award. Unless specifically provided otherwise under the
applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable, if Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are not continued when a
Change in Control or a merger of the Company with or into another corporation or other entity occurs, the Administrator will notify the Participant in writing or electronically that the Participant’s vested Options or Stock

  
 20 

 
Appreciation Rights (after considering the foregoing vesting acceleration, if any) will be exercisable for a period of time determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion and all of
the Participant’s Options or Stock Appreciation Rights will terminate upon the expiration of such period (whether vested or unvested). 

(f)    Outside Director Grants. 

(i)    With respect to Awards granted to an Outside Director, in the event of a Change in Control, the Participant will
fully vest in and have the right to exercise outstanding Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights as to all of the Shares underlying such Award, including those Shares which otherwise would not be vested or exercisable, all restrictions on other
outstanding Awards will lapse, and, with respect to Awards with performance-based vesting, all performance goals or other vesting criteria will be deemed achieved at 100% of target levels and all other terms and conditions met, unless
specifically provided otherwise under the applicable Award Agreement, a Company policy related to Director compensation, or other written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or
Parents, as applicable, that specifically references this default rule. 
 15.    Tax Matters. 

(a)    Withholding Requirements. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash under an Award (or exercise
thereof) or such earlier time as any Tax Withholding are due, the Company may deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any Tax Withholding with respect to such Award or Shares subject
to an Award (including upon exercise of an Award). 
 (b)    Withholding Arrangements. The Administrator, in its
sole discretion and under such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may elect to satisfy such Tax Withholding, in whole or in part (including in combination) by (without limitation) (i) requiring the Participant to pay cash,
check or other cash equivalents, (ii) withholding otherwise deliverable cash (including cash from the sale of Shares issued to the Participant) or Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld or such
greater amount (including up to a maximum statutory amount) as the Administrator may determine or permit if such amount does not result in unfavorable financial accounting treatment, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion,
(iii) forcing the sale of Shares issued pursuant to an Award (or exercise thereof) having a fair market value equal to the minimum statutory amount applicable in a Participant’s jurisdiction or a greater amount as the Administrator
may determine or permit if such greater amount would not result in unfavorable financial accounting treatment, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion, (iv) requiring the Participant to deliver to the Company already-owned Shares
having a fair market value equal to the minimum statutory amount required to be withheld or a greater amount as the Administrator may determine or permit if such greater amount would not result in unfavorable financial accounting treatment, as the
Administrator determines in its sole discretion, (v) requiring the Participant to engage in a cashless exercise transaction (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan, (vi) having
the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary withhold from wages or any other cash amount due or to become due to the Participant and payable by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, or (vii) such other consideration and method of payment for the
meeting of Tax Withholding as the Administrator may determine to the extent permitted by 

  
 21 

 
Applicable Laws, provided that, in all instances, the satisfaction of the Tax Withholding will not result in any adverse accounting consequence to the Company, as the Administrator may determine
in its sole discretion. The fair market value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined as of the date the amount of tax to be withheld is calculated or such other date as Administrator determines is applicable or appropriate with
respect to the Tax Withholding calculation. 
 (c)    Compliance With Code
Section 409A. Unless the Administrator determines that compliance with Code Section 409A is not necessary, it is intended that Awards will be designed and operated so that they are either exempt or excepted from
the application of Code Section 409A or comply with any requirements necessary to avoid the imposition of additional tax under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B) so that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the
additional tax or interest applicable under Code Section 409A and the Plan and each Award Agreement will be interpreted consistent with this intent. This Section 15(c) is not a guarantee to any Participant of the consequences of his or her
Awards. In no event will the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Participant for any taxes that may be imposed or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A. 

16.    Other Terms. 

(a)    No Effect on Employment or Service. Neither the Plan nor any Award will confer upon a Participant any right
regarding continuing the Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company or member of the Company Group, nor will they interfere with the Participant’s right, or the Participant’s employer’s right, to terminate
such relationship at any time free from any liability or claim under the Plan. 
 (b)    Interpretation and Rules of
Construction. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation.” 

(c)    Plan Governs. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms
and conditions of any Grant Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 
 (d)    Forfeiture
Events. 
 (i)    All Awards granted under the Plan will be subject to recoupment under any clawback policy that
the Company is required to adopt 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 other Applicable Laws. In addition, the Administrator may impose such other clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions in an Award Agreement as the Administrator determines necessary or appropriate, including without limitation to
any reacquisition right regarding previously acquired Shares or other cash or property. Unless this Section 16(d)(i) is specifically mentioned and waived in an Award Agreement or other document, no recovery of compensation under a clawback
policy or otherwise will be an event that triggers or contributes to any right of a Participant to resign for “good reason” or “constructive termination” (or similar term) under any agreement with the Company or a member of
the Company Group. 

  
 22 

 (ii)    The Administrator may specify in an Award Agreement that the
Participant’s rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, or recoupment upon the occurrence of specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance
conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but will not be limited to, termination of such Participant’s status as Service Provider for cause or any specified action or inaction by a Participant that would constitute cause for termination
of such Participant’s status as a Service Provider. 
 17.    Term of Plan. Subject to Section 20, the
Plan will become effective upon the later to occur of (a) its adoption by the Board, or (b) the business day immediately prior to the Registration Date. The Plan will continue in effect until terminated under Section 18, but
(i) no Incentive Stock Options may be granted after 10 years from the earlier of the Board or stockholder approval of the Plan and (ii) Section 3(b) relating to automatic share reserve increase will operate only until the tenth
anniversary of the earlier of the Board or stockholder approval of the Plan. 
 18.    Amendment and Termination of
the Plan. 
 (a)    Amendment and Termination. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may amend, alter,
suspend or terminate the Plan or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. 
 (b)    Stockholder
Approval. The Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with Applicable Laws. 

(c)    Consent of Participants Generally Required. Subject to Section 18(d) below, no amendment, alteration,
suspension or termination of the Plan or an Award under it will materially impair the rights of any Participant without a signed, written agreement authorized by the Administrator between the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan will
not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it regarding Awards granted under the Plan prior to such termination. 

(d)    Exceptions to Consent Requirement. 

(i)    A Participant’s rights will not be deemed to have been impaired by any amendment, alteration, suspension or
termination if the Administrator, in its sole discretion, determines that the amendment, alteration, suspension or termination taken as a whole, does not materially impair the Participant’s rights; and 

(ii)    Subject to any limitations of Applicable Laws, the Administrator may amend the terms of any one or more Awards
without the affected Participant’s consent even if it does materially impair the Participant’s right if such amendment is done: 

(1)    in a manner specified by the Plan; 

(2)    to maintain the qualified status of the Award as an Incentive Stock Option under Code Section 422; 

  
 23 

 (3)    to change the terms of an Incentive Stock Option, if such change
results in impairment of the Award only because it impairs the qualified status of the Award as an Incentive Stock Option under Code Section 422; 

(4)    to clarify the manner of exemption from Code Section 409A or compliance with any requirements necessary to
avoid the imposition of additional tax or interest under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B); or 
 (5)    to comply with
other Applicable Laws. 
 19.    Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. 

(a)    Legal Compliance. The Company will make good faith efforts to comply with all Applicable Laws related to the
issuance of Shares. Shares will not be issued pursuant to an Award, including without limitation upon exercise or vesting thereof, as applicable, unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares and exercise or vesting of the Award, as applicable,
will comply with Applicable Laws. If required by the Administrator, issuance will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance. If the Company determines it to be impossible or impractical to obtain
authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction or to complete or comply with the requirements of any Applicable Laws, registration or other qualification of the Shares under any state, federal or foreign law or under the rules and
regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the stock exchange on which Shares of the same class are then listed, or any other governmental or regulatory body, which authority, registration, qualification or rule compliance is deemed
by the Company’s counsel to be necessary or advisable for the issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, the Company will be relieved of any liability regarding the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such authority, registration,
qualification or rule compliance was not obtained and the Administrator reserves the authority, without the consent of a Participant, to terminate or cancel Awards with or without consideration in such a situation. 

(b)    Investment Representations. As a condition to the exercise or vesting of an Award, the Company may require
the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant during any such exercise or vesting that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and with no present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for
the Company, such a representation is required. 
 (c)    Failure to Accept Award. If a Participant has not
accepted an Award to the extent such acceptance has been requested or required by the Company or has not taken all administrative and other steps (e.g., setting up an account with a broker designated by the Company) necessary for the Company to
issue Shares upon the vesting, exercise, or settlement of the Award prior to the first date the Shares subject to such Award are scheduled to vest, then the portion of the Award scheduled to vest on such date will be cancelled on such date and such
Shares subject to the Award immediately will revert to the Plan for no additional consideration unless otherwise provided by the Administrator. 

20.    Stockholder Approval. The Plan will be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within
12 months after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board. Such stockholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

 EXHIBIT A 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK OPTION GRANT 

1.    Grant of Option. 

(a)    The Company hereby grants to the individual (“Participant”) named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant of
this Option Agreement (the “Notice of Grant”) an option (the “Option”) to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Exercise
Price”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Option Agreement and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 18(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan
and this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 
 (b)    For U.S. taxpayers, the Option
will be designated as either an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”) or a Nonstatutory Stock Option (“NSO”). If designated in the Notice of Grant as an ISO, this Option is intended to qualify as an ISO under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it will be treated as an NSO. Further, if for any reason
this Option (or portion thereof) will not qualify as an ISO, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion thereof) will be regarded as a NSO granted under the Plan. In no event will the Administrator, the Company, or any
Parent or Subsidiary or any of their respective employees or directors have any liability to Participant (or any other person) due to the failure of the Option to qualify for any reason as an ISO. 

(c)    For non-U.S. taxpayers, the Option will be designated as an NSO. 

2.    Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 3, the Option awarded by this Option Agreement will vest
in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Unless specifically provided otherwise in this Option Agreement or other written agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as
applicable, Shares subject to this Option that are scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of this Option Agreement, unless Participant will have been
continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. 
 3.    Administrator
Discretion. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Option at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Option will be
considered as having vested as of the date specified by the Administrator. 
 4.    Exercise of Option. 

(a)    Right to Exercise. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant, and may
be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Grant and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement. 

 (b)    Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery
of an exercise notice (the “Exercise Notice”) in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Notice of Grant or in a manner and pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may determine, which will state the election to exercise the
Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise
Notice will be completed by Participant and delivered to the Company. The Exercise Notice will be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised Shares and of any Tax Obligations (as defined in Section 6(a)). This
Option will be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by the aggregate Exercise Price, together with any applicable Tax Obligations. 

5.    Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price will be by any of the following, or a combination
thereof, at the election of Participant: 
 (a)    cash in U.S. dollars; 

(b)    check designated in U.S. dollars; 

(c)    consideration received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by the Company in connection
with the Plan; or 
 (d)    if Participant is a U.S. employee, surrender of other Shares which have a Fair Market Value
on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Exercised Shares and that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances, or security interests, provided that accepting such Shares, in the sole discretion of the
Administrator, will not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company. 
 6.    Tax Obligations.

 (a)    Responsibility for Taxes. Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company
or, if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) or any Parent or Subsidiary to which Participant is providing services (together, the “Service Recipients”), the ultimate liability for any tax and/or social
insurance liability obligations and requirements in connection with the Option, including, without limitation, (i) all federal, state, foreign and local taxes (including Participant’s Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) obligations)
that are required to be withheld by any Service Recipient or other payment of tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant;
(ii) Participant’s and, to the extent required by any Service Recipient, the Service Recipient’s fringe benefit tax liability, if any, associated with the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Option or sale of Shares; and (iii) any
other Service Recipient taxes the responsibility for which Participant has, or has agreed to bear, with respect to the Option (or exercise thereof or issuance of Shares thereunder) (collectively, the “Tax Obligations”), is and remains
Participant’s sole responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the applicable Service Recipient(s). Participant further acknowledges that no Service Recipient (A) makes any representations or undertakings regarding the
treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of the Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, 

  
 -2- 

 
vesting, or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends or other distributions, and (B) makes any commitment to
and is under any obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Participant is subject to Tax
Obligations in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges that the applicable Service Recipient(s) (or former employer, as applicable)
may be required to withhold or account for Tax Obligations in more than one jurisdiction. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax Obligations hereunder at the time of the applicable taxable event,
Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares. 
 (b)    Tax
Withholding. Pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time, the applicable Service Recipient(s) will withhold the amount required to be withheld for the payment of Tax Obligations. The Administrator, in its sole
discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit Participant to satisfy such Tax Obligations, in whole or in part (without limitation), if permissible by applicable local law, by (i) paying cash in U.S.
dollars; (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a fair market value equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as
Participant may elect if permitted by the Administrator, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences); (iii) having the amount of such Tax Obligations withheld from Participant’s wages or other cash
compensation paid to Participant by the applicable Service Recipient(s); (iv) delivering to the Company Shares that Participant owns and that have vested with a fair market value equal to such Tax Obligations; or (v) selling a sufficient
number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant through such means as the Company may determine in its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise) equal to the minimum amount that is necessary to meet the withholding
requirement for such Tax Obligations (or such greater amount as Participant may elect if permitted by the Administrator, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences). To the extent determined appropriate by
the Administrator in its discretion, it will have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any Tax Obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant. 

(c)    Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option is an ISO, and if Participant sells or
otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (i) the date two (2) years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one (1) year after the date of exercise, Participant immediately
will notify the Company in writing of such disposition. Participant agrees that Participant may be subject to income tax withholding by the Company on the compensation income recognized by Participant. 

(d)    Section 409A. Under Section 409A, a stock right (such as the Option) that vests after December 31,
2004 (or that vested on or prior to such date but which was materially modified after October 3, 2004) that was granted with a per share exercise price that is determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than the
fair market value of an underlying share on the date of grant (a “discount option”) may be considered “deferred compensation.” A stock right that is a “discount option” may result in (i) income recognition by the
recipient of the 

  
 -3- 

 
stock right prior to the exercise of the stock right; (ii) an additional twenty percent (20%) federal income tax; and (iii) potential penalty and interest charges. The “discount
option” also may result in additional state income, penalty, and interest tax to the recipient of the stock right. Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot and has not guaranteed that the IRS will agree that the per Share exercise price
of this Option equals or exceeds the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant in a later examination. Participant agrees that if the IRS determines that the Option was granted with a per Share exercise price that was less than the fair
market value of a Share on the date of grant, Participant will be solely responsible for Participant’s costs related to such a determination. In no event will the Company or any of its Parent or Subsidiaries have any liability or obligation to
reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless Participant for any taxes, penalties, and interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A. 

7.    Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any
of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued, recorded on the records of the
Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation, and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the
Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. 
 8.    No
Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER, WHICH UNLESS PROVIDED OTHERWISE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW IS AT
THE WILL OF THE APPLICABLE SERVICE RECIPIENT AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS OPTION AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED
HEREUNDER, AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH
PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF ANY SERVICE RECIPIENT TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER, SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW, WHICH TERMINATION, UNLESS PROVIDED OTHERWISE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, MAY BE AT ANY TIME, WITH
OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 
 9.    Nature of Grant. In accepting the Option, Participant acknowledges, understands and
agrees that: 
 (a)    the grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other
right to receive future grants of equity awards, or benefits in lieu of equity awards, even if equity awards have been granted in the past; 

(b)    all decisions with respect to future Options or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the
Administrator; 

  
 -4- 

 (c)    Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(d)    the Option and any Shares acquired under the Plan are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

 (e)    the Option and Shares acquired under the Plan and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or
expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, holiday pay,
long-service awards, pension or retirement, or welfare benefits or similar payments; 
 (f)    the future value of the
Shares underlying the Option is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be predicted; 
 (g)    if the underlying Shares do
not increase in value, the Option will have no value; 
 (h)    if Participant exercises the Option and acquires Shares,
the value of such Shares may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price; 
 (i)    for purposes of the
Option, Participant’s status as a Service Provider will be considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and
whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided
in this Option Agreement (including by reference in the Notice of Grant to other arrangements or contracts) or determined by the Administrator, (i) Participant’s right to vest in the Option under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such
date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant’s period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the
jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any, unless Participant is providing bona fide services during such time), and (ii) the period (if any) during which
Participant may exercise the Option after such termination of Participant’s engagement as a Service Provider will commence on the date Participant ceases to actively provide services and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under
employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is employed or terms of Participant’s engagement agreement, if any; the Administrator will have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing
services for purposes of this Option grant (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence and consistent with local law);  

(j)    unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Administrator in its discretion, the Option and the benefits
evidenced by this Option Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Option or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out, or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction
affecting the Shares; and 

  
 -5- 

 (k)        the following provisions apply only if
Participant is providing services outside the United States: 
 (i)        the Option and the
Shares subject to the Option are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose; 

(ii)        Participant acknowledges and agrees that no Service Recipient will be liable for any
foreign exchange rate fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Option or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the exercise of the Option or the subsequent sale of
any Shares acquired upon exercise; and 
 (iii)        no claim or entitlement to compensation or
damages will arise from forfeiture of the Option resulting from the termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the
jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of the Option to which Participant is otherwise not entitled, Participant irrevocably
agrees never to institute any claim against any Service Recipient, waives his or her ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases each Service Recipient from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a
court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, Participant will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such
claim. 
 10.    No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal, or financial advice, nor
is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the Shares underlying the Option. Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal
tax, legal, and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 

11.    Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use,
and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Option Agreement and any other Option grant materials by and among, as applicable, the Service Recipients for the exclusive purpose of implementing,
administering, and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan.  
 Participant understands that the Company and the
Service Recipient may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary,
nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all Options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the
exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing the Plan. 
 Participant understands that Data may be
transferred to a stock plan service provider, as may be selected by the Company in the future, assisting the Company with the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan. Participant understands that the recipients of the

  
 -6- 

 
Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country of operation (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than
Participant’s country. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources
representative. Participant authorizes the Company, any stock plan service provider selected by the Company, and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering, and managing
the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering, and managing his or her participation in the Plan. Participant understands that Data will be held
only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional
information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further,
Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Participant does not consent, or if Participant later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her status as a Service Provider and career with
the Service Recipient will not be adversely affected. The only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant Participant Options or other equity awards or administer or
maintain such awards. Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to
consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative. 

12.    Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Option Agreement will be
addressed to the Company at Blend Labs, Inc., 415 Kearny Street, San Francisco, CA 94108, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing. 

13.    Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in
any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Participant only by Participant. 

14.    Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Option Agreement to single or
multiple assignees, and this Option Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Option Agreement will be binding upon Participant and his or her
heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns. The rights and obligations of Participant under this Option Agreement may be assigned only with the prior written consent of the Company. 

15.    Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion,
that the listing, registration, qualification, or rule compliance of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any state, federal, or non-U.S. law, the tax code, and related regulations or under the
rulings or regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other governmental regulatory body or the clearance, consent, or approval of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental
regulatory 

  
 -7- 

 
authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the exercise of the Options or the purchase by, or issuance of Shares, to Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such exercise,
purchase, or issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, rule compliance, clearance, consent, or approval will have been completed, effected, or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company.
Subject to the terms of the Option Agreement and the Plan, the Company will not be required to issue any certificate or certificates for (or make any entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company of) the
Shares hereunder prior to the lapse of such reasonable period of time following the date of exercise of the Option as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience. 

16.    Language. If Participant has received this Option Agreement or any other document related to the Plan
translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control. 

17.    Interpretation. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Option Agreement and to
adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation, and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Shares subject to the
Option have vested). All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company, and all other interested persons. Neither the Administrator nor any
person acting on behalf of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination, or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Option Agreement. 

18.    Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents
related to the Option awarded under the Plan or future Options that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or require Participant to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by
electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. 

19.    Captions. Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for
interpretation or construction of this Option Agreement. 
 20.    Option Agreement Severable. In the event that
any provision in this Option Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Option
Agreement. 
 21.    Amendment, Suspension or Termination of the Plan. By accepting this Option, Participant
expressly warrants that he or she has received an Option under the Plan, and has received, read, and understood a description of the Plan. Participant understands that the Plan is discretionary in nature and may be amended, suspended, or terminated
by the Administrator at any time. 

  
 -8- 

 22.    Governing Law and Venue. This Option Agreement and the
Option are governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the choice of law rules of California. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this Option or this Option Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the
jurisdiction of the State of California, and agree that such litigation will be conducted in the courts of San Francisco County, California, or the United States federal courts for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this
Option is made and/or to be performed. 
 23.    Country Addendum. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Option
Agreement, this Option will be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in an appendix (if any) to this Option Agreement for any country whose laws are applicable to Participant and this Option (as determined by the Administrator in its
sole discretion) (the “Country Addendum”). Moreover, if Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the Country Addendum (if any), the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant, to the extent the
Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. The Country Addendum (if any) constitutes a part of this Option Agreement. 

24.    Modifications to the Option Agreement. This Option Agreement constitutes the entire understanding of the
parties on the subjects covered. Participant expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Option Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein. Modifications to this Option
Agreement or the Plan can be made only in an express written contract executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Option Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise this
Option Agreement as it deems necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Participant, to comply with Section 409A or to otherwise avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A
in connection with the Option. 
 25.    No Waiver. Either party’s failure to enforce any provision or
provisions of this Option Agreement will not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing each and every other provision of this Option Agreement. The rights granted both
parties herein are cumulative and will not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances. 

26.    Tax Consequences. Participant has reviewed with his or her own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local,
and non-U.S. tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Option Agreement. With respect to such matters, Participant relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements
or representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) will be responsible for Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or the
transactions contemplated by this Option Agreement.

 Terms and
Conditions 
 This Country Addendum includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Option to purchase shares of the Common Stock of Blend
Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Blend Labs, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the Option Agreement to which this Country Addendum is attached to the extent the
individual to whom the Option was granted (“Participant”) resides in one of the countries listed below. 
 Notifications 

This Country Addendum also includes information regarding securities laws, exchange controls and certain other issues of which Participant should be aware with
respect to his or her participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control, and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of June 2021. Such laws often are complex and change frequently. As a result, the
Company strongly recommends that Participant not rely on the information in this Country Addendum or any tax summaries provided by the Company as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Participant’s participation in the
Plan because the information may be out of date at the time Participant exercises the Options or sells the Shares acquired under the Plan. 
 In addition,
the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to Participant’s particular situation and the Company is not in a position to assure Participant of any particular result. Accordingly, Participant is advised to seek
appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws of Participant’s country may apply to his or her situation. 
 Finally, if Participant is a
citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant currently is working or transfers to another country after the grant of the Option, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes, the information
contained herein may not be applicable to Participant in the same manner. In addition, the Company, in its discretion, will determine the extent to which the terms and conditions contained herein will apply to Participant under these circumstances.

 Participant acknowledges that Participant has been advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant exchange control and tax
laws in Participant’s country may apply to his or her individual situation.

 EXHIBIT A 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT 

1.    Grant of Restricted Stock Units. The Company hereby grants to the individual (“Participant”) named
in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant of this Award Agreement (the “Notice of Grant”) under the Plan an Award of Restricted Stock Units, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement and the Plan, which is
incorporated herein by reference. Subject to Section 18(c) of the Plan, in the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail. 

2.    Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive a Share on the
date it vests. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Section 3 or 4, Participant will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested
Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. 

3.    Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 4, and subject to Section 5, the Restricted Stock
Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. 

4.    Payment after Vesting. 

(a)    General Rule. Subject to Section 8, any Restricted Stock Units that vest will be paid to Participant (or
in the event of Participant’s death, to his or her properly designated beneficiary or estate) in whole Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(b), such vested Restricted Stock Units will be paid in whole Shares as soon as
practicable after vesting, but in each such case within sixty (60) days following the vesting date. In no event will Participant be permitted, directly or indirectly, to specify the taxable year of payment of any Restricted Stock Units payable
under this Award Agreement. 
 (b)    Acceleration. 

(i)    Discretionary Acceleration. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the vesting of the balance,
or some lesser portion of the balance, of the unvested Restricted Stock Units at any time, subject to the terms of the Plan. If so accelerated, such Restricted Stock Units will be considered as having vested as of the date specified by the
Administrator. If Participant is a U.S. taxpayer, the payment of Shares vesting pursuant to this Section 4(b) will in all cases be paid at a time or in a manner that is exempt from, or complies with, Section 409A. The prior sentence may be
superseded in a future agreement or amendment to this Award Agreement only by direct and specific reference to such sentence. 

 (ii)    Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement or
any other agreement (whether entered into before, on or after the Date of Grant), if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with the cessation of
Participant’s status as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A, as determined by the Administrator), other than due to Participant’s death, and if
(x) Participant is a U.S. taxpayer and a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will
result in the imposition of additional tax under Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following the cessation of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated
Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of cessation of Participant’s status as a Service Provider, unless Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service
Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be paid in Shares to Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death. 

(c)    Section 409A. It is the intent of this Award Agreement that it and all payments and benefits to U.S.
taxpayers hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed
under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply. Each payment payable under this Award Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). However, in no event will the Company or any of its Parent or Subsidiaries have any liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless Participant for any taxes,
penalties, and interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A. 

5.    Forfeiture Upon Termination as a Service Provider. Unless specifically provided otherwise in this Award
Agreement or other written agreement between Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Parents, as applicable, if Participant ceases to be a Service Provider for any or no reason, the then-unvested Restricted Stock Units awarded by
this Award Agreement will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company and Participant will have no further rights thereunder. 

6.    Tax Consequences. Participant has reviewed with his or her own tax advisors the U.S. federal, state, local,
and non-U.S. tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by this Award Agreement. With respect to such matters, Participant relies solely on such advisors and not on any statements or
representations of the Company or any of its agents, written or oral. Participant understands that Participant (and not the Company) will be solely responsible for Participant’s own tax liability that may arise as a result of this investment or
the transactions contemplated by this Award Agreement. 
 7.    Death of Participant. Any distribution or
delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s
estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or
regulations pertaining to said transfer. 

  
 -2- 

 8.    Tax Obligations 

(a)    Responsibility for Taxes. Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if
different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) or any Parent or Subsidiary to which Participant is providing services (together, the “Service Recipients”), the ultimate liability for any tax and/or social insurance
liability obligations and requirements in connection with the Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, (i) all federal, state, foreign, and local taxes (including Participant’s Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA)
obligations) that are required to be withheld by any Service Recipient or other payment of tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant;
(ii) Participant’s and, to the extent required by any Service Recipient, the Service Recipient’s fringe benefit tax liability, if any, associated with the grant, vesting, or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or sale of Shares;
and (iii) any other Service Recipient taxes the responsibility for which Participant has, or has agreed to bear, with respect to the Restricted Stock Units (or settlement thereof or issuance of Shares thereunder) (collectively, the “Tax
Obligations”), is and remains Participant’s sole responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the applicable Service Recipient(s). Participant further acknowledges that no Service Recipient (A) makes any
representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting, or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the
subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement, and the receipt of any dividends or other distributions, and (B) makes any commitment to and is under any obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the
Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Participant is subject to Tax Obligations in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and
the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, Participant acknowledges that the applicable Service Recipient(s) (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Obligations in more than
one jurisdiction. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any required Tax Obligations hereunder at the time of the applicable taxable event, Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to issue
or deliver the Shares. 
 (b)    Tax Withholding and Default Method of Tax Withholding. When Shares are
issued as payment for vested Restricted Stock Units, Participant generally will recognize immediate U.S. taxable income if Participant is a U.S. taxpayer. If Participant is a non-U.S. taxpayer, Participant
will be subject to applicable taxes in his or her jurisdiction. The minimum amount of Tax Obligations which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to this Award (“Tax Withholding Obligation”) will be satisfied by Shares being
sold on Participant’s behalf at the prevailing market price pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may specify from time to time, including through a broker-assisted arrangement (it being understood that the Shares to be sold must
have vested pursuant to the terms of this Award Agreement and the Plan). The proceeds from the sale will be used to satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligation arising with respect to this Award. In addition to Shares sold to satisfy the
Tax Withholding Obligation, additional Shares will be sold to satisfy any associated broker or other fees. Only whole Shares will be sold to satisfy any Tax Withholding Obligation. Any proceeds from the sale of Shares in excess of the Tax
Withholding Obligation and any associated broker or other fees will be paid to Participant in accordance with procedures the Company may specify from time to time. By accepting this Award, Participant expressly consents to the sale of Shares to
cover the Tax Withholding Obligations (and any associated broker or other fees) and agrees and acknowledges that Participant may not satisfy them by any means other than such sale of Shares, unless required to do so by the
Administrator or pursuant to the Administrator’s express written consent. 

  
 -3- 

 (c)    Administrator Discretion. If the Administrator determines
that Participant cannot satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligation through the default procedure described in Section 8(b) or the Administrator otherwise determines to allow Participant to satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding
Obligation by a method other than through the default procedure set forth in Section 8(b), it may permit or require Participant to satisfy Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligation, in whole or in part (without limitation), if permissible
by applicable local law, by (i) paying cash in U.S. dollars; (ii) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares having a value equal to the minimum amount statutorily required to be withheld (or such greater amount as
Participant may elect if permitted by the Administrator, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences); (iii) having the amount of such Tax Withholding Obligation withheld from Participant’s wages or
other cash compensation paid to Participant by the applicable Service Recipient(s); (iv) delivering to the Company Shares that Participant owns and that have vested with a fair market value equal to the minimum amount statutorily required to be
withheld (or such greater amount as Participant may elect if permitted by the Administrator, if such greater amount would not result in adverse financial accounting consequences); or (v) such other means as the Administrator deems appropriate.

 (d)    Company’s Obligation to Deliver Shares. For clarification purposes, in no event will
the Company issue Participant any Shares unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator have been made for the payment of Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligation. If Participant fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the
payment of such Tax Withholding Obligations hereunder at the time any applicable Restricted Stock Units otherwise are scheduled to vest pursuant to Sections 3 or 4 or Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligations otherwise become due, Participant
will permanently forfeit such Restricted Stock Units to which Participant’s Tax Withholding Obligation relates and any right to receive Shares thereunder and such Restricted Stock Units will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.

 9.    Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will
have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing such Shares (which may be in book entry form) will have been issued, recorded on the
records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Participant (including through electronic delivery to a brokerage account). After such issuance, recordation, and delivery, Participant will have all the rights of a
stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares. 

10.    No Guarantee of Continued Service. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED
STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF IS EARNED ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER, WHICH UNLESS PROVIDED OTHERWISE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW IS AT THE WILL OF THE APPLICABLE SERVICE RECIPIENT AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED,
BEING GRANTED THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED 

  
 -4- 

 
HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT
ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF ANY SERVICE RECIPIENT TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER, SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW, WHICH TERMINATION, UNLESS PROVIDED OTHERWISE
UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, MAY BE AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. 
 11.    Grant is Not Transferable. Except to
the limited extent provided in Section 7, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to
sale under execution, attachment, or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution,
attachment, or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void. 

12.    Nature of Grant. In accepting this Award of Restricted Stock Units, Participant acknowledges, understands
and agrees that: 
 (a)    the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any
contractual or other right to receive future grants of equity awards, or benefits in lieu of equity awards, even if equity awards have been granted in the past; 

(b)    all decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Units or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion
of the Administrator; 
 (c)    Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; 

(d)    the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to replace any
pension rights or compensation; 
 (e)    the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock
Units, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal,
end-of-service payments, bonuses, holiday pay, long-service awards, pension or retirement, or welfare benefits or similar payments; 

(f)    the future value of the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units is unknown, indeterminable, and cannot be
predicted; 
 (g)    for purposes of the Restricted Stock Units, Participant’s status as a Service Provider will be
considered terminated as of the date Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of
employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and unless otherwise expressly provided in this Award Agreement (including by reference in the
Notice of Grant to other arrangements or contracts) or determined by the Administrator, Participant’s 

  
 -5- 

 
right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., Participant’s period of service would
not include any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service
agreement, if any, unless Participant is providing bona fide services during such time); the Administrator will have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Restricted Stock
Units grant (including whether Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence and consistent with local law); 

(h)    unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Administrator in its discretion, the Restricted Stock Units and the
benefits evidenced by this Award Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Restricted Stock Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any
corporate transaction affecting the Shares; and 
 (i)    the following provisions apply only if Participant is
providing services outside the United States: 
 (i)    the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the
Restricted Stock Units are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose; 

(ii)    Participant acknowledges and agrees that no Service Recipient will be liable for any foreign exchange rate
fluctuation between Participant’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted Stock Units or of any amounts due to Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the
subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon settlement; and 
 (iii)    no claim or entitlement to compensation or
damages will arise from forfeiture of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from the termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider (for any reason whatsoever whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in
the jurisdiction where Participant is a Service Provider or the terms of Participant’s employment or service agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units to which Participant is otherwise not
entitled, Participant irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against any Service Recipient, waives his or her ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases each Service Recipient from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the
foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, Participant will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agrees to execute any and all documents necessary to
request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim. 
 13.    No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing
any tax, legal, or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units. Participant is
hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal, and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 

  
 -6- 

 14.    Data Privacy. Participant hereby
explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use, and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data as described in this Award Agreement and any other Restricted Stock Unit grant materials by and among, as
applicable, the Service Recipients for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. 

Participant understands that the Company and the Service Recipient may hold certain personal information about Participant, including,
but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company, details of all
Restricted Stock Units or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Data”), for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing the Plan.

 Participant understands that Data may be transferred to a stock plan service provider, as may be selected by the Company in
the future, assisting the Company with the implementation, administration, and management of the Plan. Participant understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country of
operation (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country. Participant understands that if he or she resides outside the United States, he or she may request a list with the names and
addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Participant authorizes the Company, any stock plan service provider selected by the Company, and any other possible recipients which may
assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering, and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain, and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering, and
managing his or her participation in the Plan. Participant understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer, and manage Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands if he or she
resides outside the United States, he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case
without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Further, Participant understands that he or she is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If Participant does not consent, or if Participant
later seeks to revoke his or her consent, his or her status as a Service Provider and career with the Service Recipient will not be adversely affected. The only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing Participant’s consent is that the
Company would not be able to grant Participant Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, Participant understands that refusing or withdrawing his or her consent may affect Participant’s
ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of Participant’s refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Participant understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources representative.

 15.    Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award
Agreement will be addressed to the Company at Blend Labs, Inc., 415 Kearny Street, San Francisco, CA 94108, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing. 

  
 -7- 

 16.    Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in
its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to the Restricted Stock Units awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic means or require Participant to participate in the
Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through any on-line or electronic system established and maintained
by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. 
 17.    No Waiver. Either party’s failure to
enforce any provision or provisions of this Award Agreement will not in any way be construed as a waiver of any such provision or provisions, nor prevent that party from thereafter enforcing each and every other provision of this Award Agreement.
The rights granted both parties herein are cumulative and will not constitute a waiver of either party’s right to assert all other legal remedies available to it under the circumstances. 

18.    Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this Award Agreement to single or
multiple assignees, and this Award Agreement will inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth, this Award Agreement will be binding upon Participant and his or her

 Finally, if Participant
is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Participant currently is working or transfers to another country after the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, or is considered a resident of another country for local law purposes,

circumstances. 
 Participant acknowledges that Participant has been advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant exchange

 Exhibit 10.6 

BLEND LABS, INC. 

CHANGE IN CONTROL SEVERANCE AGREEMENT 

This Change in Control Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between Blend Labs, Inc. (the
“Company”) and                      (the “Executive”), effective as of
                , 2021 (the “Effective Date”). 

This Agreement provides certain protections to the Executive in connection with a change in control of the Company or in connection with the
involuntary termination of the Executive’s employment under the circumstances described in this Agreement. Certain capitalized terms are defined in Section 7 to the extent not otherwise defined in other Sections of the Agreement. 

The Company and the Executive agree as follows: 

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will terminate upon the date that all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to
this Agreement have been satisfied. 
 2. At-Will Employment. The Company and the Executive
acknowledge that the Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. 

3. Severance Benefits. 

(a) Qualifying CIC Termination. In the event of a Qualifying CIC Termination (as defined below), and subject to Sections 5 and 6,
the Executive will be eligible to receive the following from the Company: 
 (i) Equity Vesting. Vesting acceleration (and
exercisability, as applicable) as to fifty percent (50%) of the then-unvested shares subject to each of the Company equity awards granted to the Executive that is outstanding as of the date of the Qualifying CIC Termination (each, an “Equity
Award”). In the case of an Equity Award that is subject to performance-based vesting, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Equity Award agreement governing the Equity Award, all performance goals and other vesting criteria will be
deemed achieved at fifty percent (50%) of target levels. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of the Executive’s Qualifying Pre-CIC Termination (as defined below), any then outstanding Equity Awards
will remain outstanding until the earlier of (x) three (3) months following the Qualifying CIC Termination or (y) the occurrence of a Change in Control, solely so that any benefits due on a Qualifying
Pre-CIC Termination can be provided if a Change in Control occurs within three (3) months following the Qualifying CIC Termination (provided that in no event will the Executive’s stock options or
similar Equity Awards remain outstanding beyond the Equity Award’s maximum term to expiration). If no Change in Control occurs within three (3) months following a Qualifying CIC Termination, any unvested portion of the Executive’s
Equity Awards automatically and permanently will be forfeited on the date three (3) months following the date of the Qualifying CIC Termination without having vested. 

 (b) Termination Other Than a Qualifying CIC Termination. If the termination of the
Executive’s employment with the Company Group (as defined below) is not a Qualifying CIC Termination, then the Executive will not be entitled to receive the vesting accelerations specified in this Agreement. 

(c) Non-Duplication of Payment or Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if the
Executive is entitled to any vesting acceleration of any Equity Awards (other than under this Agreement) by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which any member of the Company Group is a
party in connection with the Executive’s separation (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding vesting acceleration under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits provided to the Executive. 

(d) Death of the Executive. In the event of the Executive’s death before all payments or benefits the Executive is entitled to
receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to the Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to the Executive’s personal representative in a single lump sum as soon as possible
following the Executive’s death. 
 (e) Transfer Between Members of the Company Group. For purposes of this Agreement, if the
Executive is involuntarily transferred from one member of the Company Group to another, the transfer will not be a termination without Cause but may give the Executive the ability to resign for Good Reason. 

(f) Exclusive Remedy. In the event of a termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company Group, the provisions of this
Agreement are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which the Executive may otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, or in equity. The Executive will be entitled to no benefits, compensation
or other payments or rights upon termination of employment other than those benefits expressly set forth in this Agreement. 
 4. Accrued
Compensation. On any termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company Group, the Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to the Executive under
any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements. For avoidance of doubt, receipt of accrued compensation is not subject to the Release Requirement discussed in Section 5(a). 

5. Conditions to Receipt of Severance. 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. The Executive’s receipt of any vesting acceleration upon the Executive’s
Qualifying CIC Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive signing and not revoking the Company’s then-standard separation agreement and release of claims (which may include an agreement not to disparage any member of the
Company Group, non-solicit provisions, an agreement to assist in any litigation matters, and other standard terms and conditions) (the “Release” and that requirement, the “Release
Requirement”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Executive’s Qualifying CIC Termination (the
“Release Deadline Date”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline Date, the Executive will forfeit any right to the vesting acceleration under Section 3. 

  
 - 2 - 

 (b) Payment Timing. Subject to Section 5(d), any restricted stock units,
performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards that accelerate vesting under Section 3(a) will be settled (x) within ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable, or
(y) if later, in the event of a Qualifying Pre-CIC Termination, on the date of the Change in Control.

(c) Return of Company Property. The Executive’s receipt of any vesting acceleration upon the Executive’s Qualifying CIC
Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive having returned all documents and other property provided to the Executive by any member of the Company Group (with the exception of a copy of the Company employee handbook and personnel
documents specifically relating to the Executive), developed or obtained by the Executive in connection with his or her employment with the Company Group, or otherwise belonging to the Company Group, by no later than ten (10) days following the
date of the Qualifying CIC Termination. 
 (d) Section 409A. The Company intends that all benefits provided under this Agreement or
otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (as defined below) and any guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code (collectively, “Section 409A”) so
that none of the benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No benefits to be paid to the Executive, if any such payments
or benefits, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will
be paid or otherwise provided until the Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. If, at the time of the Executive’s termination of employment, the Executive is a “specified employee”
within the meaning of Section 409A, then the payment of the Deferred Payments will be delayed to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, which generally means that the Executive will
receive payment on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day following the Executive’s termination of employment. The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it
considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Executive or the consent of any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under
Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to
constitute a separate payment for purposes of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will any member of the Company Group reimburse, indemnify, or hold harmless the Executive for any
taxes, penalties and interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A. 
 (e)
Resignation of Officer and Director Positions. The Executive’s receipt of any vesting acceleration upon the Executive’s Qualifying CIC Termination under Section 3 is subject to the Executive having resigned from all officer and
director positions with all members of the Company Group and the Executive executing any documents the Company may require in connection with the same.

 6. Limitation on Payments. 

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that the Executive would receive from any Company Group member or
any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and
(ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payment will be equal to the Best Results Amount. The “Best Results Amount” will be
either (x) the full amount of the Payment or (y) a lesser amount that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of those amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local
employment taxes, income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting parachute payments
is necessary so that the Payment equals the Best Results Amount, reduction will occur in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the
occurrence of the event triggering the excise tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of Equity Awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of
Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the awards (that is, the most recently granted Equity Awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of Equity Awards in the reverse order of date
of grant of the awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted Equity Awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the
occurrence of the event triggering the excise tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will the Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. The Executive will be solely responsible for the
payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and the Executive will not be reimbursed, indemnified, or held harmless by any member of the Company Group for any of
those payments of personal tax liability. 
 (b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. Unless the Company and the Executive
otherwise agree in writing, the Company will select a professional services firm (the “Firm”) to make all determinations required under this Section 6, which determinations will be conclusive and binding upon the Executive and
the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations
concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The
Company will bear the costs and make all payments for the Firm’s services in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to the Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

curable. 
 (c) “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events: 

(i) A change in the ownership of the Company which occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group

subsection, the acquisition of additional stock by any one Person, who prior to such acquisition is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the stock of the Company will not be considered a Change in Control

 (ii) A change in the
effective control of the Company which occurs on the date a majority of members of the Board is replaced during any twelve (12)-month period by members of the Board whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the
Board prior to the appointment or election. For purposes of this Section 7(c)(ii), if any Person is considered to be in effective control of the Company, the acquisition of additional control of the Company by the same Person will not be
considered a Change in Control; or

Section 7(c). 
 (iv) A transaction will not be a Change in Control: 

(1) unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Code Section 409A; or 

(2) if its primary purpose is to (1) change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (2) create a holding company
owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

however, that continued employment following a Change in Control with substantially the same duties, authorities, or responsibilities with respect to the Company’s business and operations will not constitute “Good Reason” (for
example, “Good Reason” does not exist if the Executive is employed by the Company Group or a successor with substantially the same duties, authorities, or responsibilities with respect to the Company Group’s business that the
Executive had immediately prior to the Change in Control regardless of whether the Executive’s title is revised to reflect Executive’s placement within the overall corporate hierarchy or whether the Executive provides services to a
subsidiary, affiliate, business unit or otherwise); (iii) a material breach by the Company of this Agreement. A condition shall not be considered “Good Reason” unless the Executive gives the Company written notice of such condition within

not more than thirty (30) days after the later of (i) the giving of the notice, or (ii) the end of any applicable cure period). 

10. Resignation. The termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason will also constitute, without any further required

reflect the resignations.
