period, the Board shall determine the extent to which performance goals for that performance period have been achieved and shall authorize the award of shares of Common Stock or cash, as applicable, to the Participant for whom the targets were

of, the Company and its Subsidiaries which shall become effective as of the date of the grant of the Award and remain in effect for a specified period of time following termination of the Participant’s employment with the Company; (b) an
agreement to cancel any employment agreement, fringe benefit or compensation arrangement in effect between the Company and the Participant; and (c) an agreement to retain the confidentiality of certain information. Such Award Agreement or other

event of the Participant’s noncompliance with the provisions of, or as otherwise provided in, such Award Agreement or other agreement. If the Participant shall fail to enter into any such agreement at the request of the Board and within any
period specified by the Board, then the Award granted or to be granted to such Participant shall be forfeited and cancelled.

5.1 Total Number of Shares. 

(a) The total number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan shall be 21,000,000. The number of shares available for
issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by (i) one share for each share issued pursuant to a Stock Option or SAR, and (ii) two and one-half shares for each share issued pursuant to a Stock Award or a Stock Unit. Shares issued under the
Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares, and shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.3 of the Plan. 

(b) The number of shares of Common Stock delivered by a Participant or withheld by the Company on behalf of any such Participant as full
or partial payment of an Award, including the exercise price of a Stock Option or of any required withholding taxes, shall not again be available for issuance pursuant to subsequent Awards, and shall count towards the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan. If there is a lapse, forfeiture, expiration, termination or cancellation of any Award for any reason (including for reasons described in Section 4.3), or if shares of Common Stock are issued under
such Award and thereafter are reacquired by the Company pursuant to rights reserved by the Company upon issuance thereof, the shares of Common Stock subject to such Award or reacquired by the Company shall again be available for issuance pursuant to
subsequent Awards, and shall not count towards the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan (if any such shares were subject to Stock Options or SARs, the number of shares again available for issuance shall
increase by one for each such share, and if any such shares were subject to Stock Awards or Stock Units, the number of shares again available for issuance shall increase by two and one-half for each such share). 

5.2 Shares Under Awards. 

Of the 21,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 5.1: 

(a) The maximum number of shares of Common Stock as to which a Key Employee may receive Stock Options in any calendar year is 2,000,000,
except that in the case of a Key Employee who is granted Stock Options in connection with his or her commencement of employment with the Company or a Subsidiary, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock as to which such Key Employee may receive
Stock Options in the calendar year in which his or her commencement of employment occurs is 3,000,000. 
 (b) The maximum number
of shares of Common Stock that may be used for Awards other than Stock Options that are intended to qualify as “performance based” in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code that may be granted to any Key Employee in any calendar
year is 1,000,000, or, in the event the Award is settled in cash, an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of such number of shares on the date on which the Award is settled. 

(c) The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be subject to Incentive Stock Options is 21,000,000. 

The numbers of shares described herein shall be as adjusted in accordance with Section 5.3 of the Plan.

 5.3 Adjustment. 

In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock distribution, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off,
combination, subdivision, consolidation or exchange of shares, any change in the capital structure of the Company or any similar corporate transaction, the Board shall make such adjustments as are necessary and appropriate to preserve the benefits
or intended benefits of the Plan and Awards granted under the Plan. Such adjustments may include: (a) adjustment in the number and kind of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan; (b) adjustment in the number and kind of shares covered
by outstanding Awards; (c) adjustment in the exercise price of outstanding Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, or the price of other Awards under the Plan; (d) adjustments to any of the share limitations set forth in

Stock Options. 
 6.1 Grant. 

Subject to the terms of the Plan, the Board may from time to time grant Stock Options to Participants. Stock Options granted under the
Plan to Non-Employee Directors shall be NSOs. Unless otherwise expressly provided at the time of the grant, Stock Options granted under the Plan to Key Employees shall be NSOs. 

6.2 Stock Option Agreement. 

The grant of each Stock Option shall be evidenced by a written Stock Option Agreement specifying the type of Stock Option granted, the
exercise period, the exercise price, the terms for payment of the exercise price, the expiration date of the Stock Option, the number of shares of Common Stock to be subject to each Stock Option and such other terms and conditions established by the
Board, in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the Plan. 
 6.3 Exercise Price and Period. 

With respect to each Stock Option granted to a Participant: 

(a) Except as provided in Section 6.4(b), the per share exercise price of each Stock Option shall be the Fair Market Value of the
Common Stock subject to the Stock Option on the date on which the Stock Option is granted. 
 (b) Each Stock Option shall become
exercisable as set forth in the Stock Option Agreement; provided that in the case of Stock Options granted to participants who are Key Employees, no Stock Option shall become exercisable earlier than with respect to 1/3 of the total number of shares
of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option on each of the three succeeding anniversaries of the date of the grant of the Stock Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which
any Stock Option shall become exercisable in the event of the Key Employee’s termination of employment with the Company, or a Non-Employee Director’s termination of service on the Board, without Good Cause. 

(c) No grant of a Stock Option shall include a “reload” Option pursuant to which a Participant who exercises a Stock Option and
satisfies all or a portion of the exercise price with Shares of Common Stock acquired upon exercise of the Stock Option is granted an additional Stock Option to acquire the same number of Shares as is used by the Participant to pay such exercise
price. 
  

 7 

 (d) Except as provided in Section 6.4(b), each Stock Option that has not terminated
earlier as provided in the Stock Option Agreement shall expire, and all rights to purchase shares of Common Stock thereunder shall expire, on the date ten years after the date of grant. 

6.4 Required Terms and Conditions of ISOs. 

In addition to the foregoing, each ISO granted to a Key Employee shall be subject to the following specific rules: 

(a) The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined with respect to each ISO at the time such Option is granted) of the shares of Common
Stock with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Key Employee during any calendar year (under all incentive stock option plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not exceed $100,000. If the aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined at the time of grant) of the Common Stock subject to an ISO which first becomes exercisable in any calendar year exceeds the limitation of this Section 6.4(a), so much of the ISO that does not exceed the applicable dollar limit
shall be an ISO and the remainder shall be a NSO; but in all other respects, the original Stock Option Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an ISO is granted to a Key Employee who owns stock possessing more than 10% of
the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or its parent or subsidiaries within the meaning of Section 422(b)(6) of the Code): (i) the purchase price of each share of Common Stock subject to the ISO shall be
not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the ISO is granted; and (ii) the ISO shall expire, and all rights to purchase shares of Common Stock thereunder shall expire, no later than the fifth anniversary of the
date the ISO was granted. 
 (c) No ISOs shall be granted under the Plan after ten years from the earlier of the date the Plan
is adopted or approved by stockholders of the Company, as described in Section 17.1 of the Plan. 
 6.5 Exercise of
Stock Options. 
 (a) A Participant entitled to exercise a Stock Option may do so by delivering written notice to that
effect specifying the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the Stock Option is being exercised and any other information the Board may prescribe. All notices or requests provided for herein shall be delivered to the Secretary of
the Company or such party as the Secretary may designate. 
 (b) The Board in its sole discretion may make available one or more
of the following alternatives for the payment of the Stock Option exercise price: 
 (i) in cash; 

(ii) in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted an exercise notice together with
irrevocable instructions to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the Stock Option to pay the exercise price; 
  

 8 

 (iii) by directing the Company to withhold the number of shares of Common
Stock otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Stock Option that have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the exercise price; 

(iv) by delivering previously acquired shares of Common Stock that are acceptable to the Board and that have an aggregate
Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the Stock Option exercise price; or 
 (v) by certifying to
ownership by attestation of such previously acquired shares of Common Stock. 
 The Board shall have the sole discretion to
establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the Stock Option exercise price. 

(c) The Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing the total number of shares of Common Stock
issuable pursuant to the exercise of any Stock Option as soon as reasonably practicable after such exercise; provided that any shares of Common Stock purchased by a Participant through a broker-dealer pursuant to Section 6.5(b)(ii) or
Section 14 shall be delivered to such broker-dealer in accordance with 12 C.F.R. §220.3(e)(4) or other applicable provision of law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance
of shares of Common Stock to a Participant on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent.

The Board may, in its discretion, (a) grant shares of Common Stock under the Plan to any Participant without payment of
consideration by such Participant or (b) sell shares of Common Stock under the Plan to any Participant for such amount of cash, Common Stock or other consideration as the Board deems appropriate. 

7.2 Stock Award Agreement. 

Each share of Common Stock issued to a Participant under this Section 7 shall be evidenced by a Stock Award Agreement, which shall
specify whether the shares of Common Stock are granted or sold to the Participant and such other restrictions, terms and conditions (including the attainment of performance goals) established by the Board in its sole discretion, not inconsistent

 (a) The restrictions to which the shares of Common Stock awarded hereunder are
subject shall lapse as set forth in the Stock Award Agreement; provided that in the case of Stock Awards to Participants who are Key Employees: (i) none of the restrictions that are based solely on the elapse of time shall lapse earlier than
with respect to 1/3 of the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Award on each of the three succeeding anniversaries of the 

 

 9 

 
date of the grant of the Stock Award and (ii) none of the restrictions that are based on the attainment of performance goals as described in Section 3.3 of the Plan shall lapse earlier
than the first anniversary of the date of the grant. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which the restrictions lapse with respect to a Stock Award in the event of a Key
Employee’s termination of employment with the Company, or a Non-Employee Director’s termination of service on the Board, without Good Cause. 

(b) Except as provided in this subsection (b) and unless otherwise provided in the Stock Award Agreement, the Participant receiving
a grant of or purchasing Common Stock shall thereupon be a stockholder with respect to all of the shares subject to the Stock Award and shall have the rights of a stockholder with respect to such shares, including the right to vote such shares and
to receive dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such shares. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the case of a Stock Award that provides for the right to receive dividends or distributions: (i) if such Stock Award is
subject to performance-based restrictions as described in Section 3.3, the Company shall accumulate and hold such dividends or distributions, and (ii) in the case of all other such Stock Awards, the Board shall have the discretion to cause
the Company to accumulate and hold such dividends or distributions. In either such case, the accumulated dividends or other distributions shall be paid to the Participant only upon the lapse of the restrictions to which the Stock Award is subject,
and any such dividends or distributions attributable to the portion of a Stock Award for which the restrictions do not lapse shall be forfeited. 

(c) The Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates representing the total number of shares of Common Stock
granted or sold to the Participant, as soon as may be reasonably practicable after such grant or sale, which shall be held by the Secretary of the Company until such time as the Common Stock is forfeited, delivered to the Company, or the
restrictions lapse. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of shares of Common Stock to a Participant on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the
Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent. 
 Section 8. Stock Units. 

8.1 Grant. 

The Board may, in its discretion, grant Stock Units to any Participant. Each Stock Unit shall entitle the Participant to receive, on the
date or upon the occurrence of an event (including the attainment of performance goals) as described in the Stock Unit Agreement, one share of Common Stock or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of such event,
as provided in the Stock Unit Agreement. 
  

 10 

 8.2 Stock Unit Agreement. 

Each grant of Stock Units to a Participant under this Section 8 shall be evidenced by a Stock Unit Agreement, which shall specify
the restrictions, terms and conditions established by the Board in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the Plan and the following provisions: 

(a) The restrictions to which the Stock Units awarded hereunder are subject shall lapse as set forth in the Stock Unit Agreement;
provided that in the case of Stock Units granted to Participants who are Key Employees: (i) none of the restrictions that are based solely on the elapse of time shall lapse earlier than with respect to 1/3 of the number of shares of Common
Stock subject to the Award on each of the three succeeding anniversaries of the date of the grant of the Award and (ii) none of the restrictions that are based on the attainment of performance goals as described in Section 3.3 of the Plan
shall lapse earlier than the first anniversary of the date of the grant of the Award. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which the restrictions lapse in the event of a Key
Employee’s termination of employment with the Company, or a Non-Employee Director’s termination of service on the Board, without Good Cause. 

(b) Except as provided in this subsection (b), and unless otherwise provided in the Stock Unit Agreement, a Participant shall have no
rights of a stockholder, including voting or dividend or other distribution rights, with respect to any Stock Units prior to the date they are settled in shares of Common Stock. A Stock Unit Agreement may provide that, until the Stock Units are
settled in shares of Common Stock or cash, the Participant shall receive, on each dividend or distribution payment date applicable to the Common Stock, an amount equal to the dividends or distributions that the Participant would have received had
the Stock Units held by the Participant as of the related record date been actual shares of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, in the case of a Stock Unit Award that provides for the right to receive amounts related to dividends
or distributions: (i) if such Stock Unit Award is subject to performance-based restrictions as described in Section 3.3, the Company shall accumulate and hold such amounts, and (ii) in the case of all other such Stock Unit Awards, the
Board shall have the discretion to cause the Company to accumulate and hold such amounts. In either such case, the accumulated amounts shall be paid to the Participant only upon the lapse of the restrictions to which the Stock Unit Award is subject
and any such amounts attributable to the portion of a Stock Unit Award for which the restrictions do not lapse shall be forfeited. 

(c) Upon settlement of Stock Units in Common Stock, the Company shall issue, in the name of the Participant, stock certificates
representing a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Stock Units being settled. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of shares of Common Stock to a Participant
on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent. 

Section 9. Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs). 

9.1 Grant. 

The Board may, in its discretion, grant an SAR under the Plan to any Participant who is a Key Employee. Each SAR granted to a Participant
shall entitle the Participant to elect to receive an amount (payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock, or a combination thereof, determined by the Board and set forth in the related Stock Appreciation Right Agreement) equal to the excess of
(a) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of such SAR, over (b) the exercise price of the SAR, multiplied by the number of shares of the Common Stock with respect to which the SAR is being exercised.

  

 11 

 9.2 Stock Appreciation Right Agreement. 

Each SAR granted under this Section 9 shall be evidenced by a Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, specifying the conditions for
exercise, the exercise period, the exercise price, the expiration date, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each SAR, whether the SAR is to be settled in shares of Common Stock or cash and such other terms and conditions established by
the Board in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the Plan and the following provisions: 
 (a) The per share exercise
price of each SAR shall be the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the SAR on the date on which the SAR is granted. 

(b) Each SAR shall become exercisable as set forth in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement; provided that in the case of SARs granted
to Participants who are Key Employees, no SAR shall become exercisable earlier than with respect to 1/3 of the total number of shares of Common Stock subject to the SAR on each of the three succeeding anniversaries of the date of the grant of the
SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Board shall have the discretion to accelerate the date as of which any SAR shall become exercisable in the event of a Participant’s termination of employment with the Company without Good Cause.

 (c) Unless a shorter period is provided in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement, each SAR shall expire on the date ten
years after the date of grant. 
 (d) Upon exercise of an SAR settled in Common Stock, the Company shall issue, in the name of
the Participant, stock certificates representing the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company, in lieu of issuing stock certificates, may reflect the issuance of shares of Common
Stock to a Participant on a non–certificated basis, with the ownership of such shares by the Participant evidenced solely by book entry in the records of the Company’s transfer agent. 

Section 10. Change in Control. 

10.1 Effect of Change in Control.

(i) any Awards that are replaced with equity awards that preserve the existing value of the Awards and have terms and
conditions (including the schedule by which such Awards vest or the restrictions lapse) that are at least as favorable to the Participant as the terms and conditions in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control shall remain outstanding and
be governed by such terms and conditions; provided, however, if within two years following the Change in Control a Participant’s employment or service on the Board is terminated without Good Cause, or if a Participant terminates employment for
Good Reason, all such replacement Awards shall become fully exercisable and all restrictions applicable to all such replacement Awards shall terminate or lapse; 

(ii) if any outstanding Awards are not replaced as described in Section 10.1(b)(i) above,
(A) Section 10.1(a)(i), (ii) and (iii) shall apply to such Awards; and (B) in addition to the Board’s authority set forth in Section 3, the Board is authorized, and has sole discretion, either at the time such
Awards are granted or any time thereafter, to take any one or more of the following actions: (I) provide for the purchase of any outstanding Stock Option and/or SAR, for an amount of cash equal to the difference between the exercise price of
the Stock Option or SAR and the then Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered thereby, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Option or SAR, or (II) provide for the purchase of any outstanding Stock Award and/or
Stock Unit for an amount of cash equal to the then Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Award or Stock Unit Award. 

10.2 Definition of Change in Control. 

“Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence, at any time during the specified term of an Award granted under the Plan, of any
of the following events: 
 (a) any individual, partnership, firm, corporation, association, trust, unincorporated organization
or other entity (other than the Company or a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company), or any syndicate or group deemed to be a person under Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, is or becomes
the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s
then outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; 
 (b) the Company is party to a merger,
consolidation, reorganization or other similar transaction with another corporation or other legal person unless, following such transaction, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities of the surviving, resulting or
acquiring corporation or person or its parent entity entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or persons performing similar functions) is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals
and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors immediately prior to such transaction, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership,
immediately prior to such transaction, of the Company’s outstanding securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; 
  

 13 

 (c) the Company sells all or substantially all of its business and/or assets to another
corporation or other legal person unless, following such sale, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the outstanding securities of the acquiring corporation or person or its parent entity entitled to vote generally in the election of

either were Directors at the beginning of the period or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board. 

Section 11. Postponement. 

The Board may postpone any grant or settlement of an Award, including the exercise of a Stock Option or SAR, for such time as the Board in
its sole discretion may deem necessary in order to permit the Company: 
 (a) to effect, amend or maintain any necessary
registration of the Plan or the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Award, including upon the exercise of a Stock Option or SAR, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction;

 (b) to permit any action to be taken in order to (i) list such shares of Common Stock on a stock exchange if shares of
Common Stock are then listed on such exchange or (ii) comply with restrictions or regulations incident to the maintenance of a public market for its shares of Common Stock, including any rules or regulations of any stock exchange on which the
shares of Common Stock are listed; or 
 (c) to determine that such shares of Common Stock and the Plan are exempt from such
registration or that no action of the kind referred to in (b)(ii) above needs to be taken; and the Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any terms and conditions of any Award or any provision of the Plan to sell or issue shares of Common Stock
in violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or the law of any government having jurisdiction thereof. 
 Any such postponement shall not extend
the term of an Award and neither the Company nor its Directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to a Participant, the Participant’s successor or any other person with respect to any shares of Common Stock as to which the Award
shall lapse because of such postponement.

 Section 12. Payment of Taxes. 

In connection with any Award, and as a condition to the issuance or delivery of any shares of Common Stock or cash amount to the
Participant in connection therewith, the Company may require the Participant to pay the Company an amount equal to the minimum amount of the tax the Company or any Subsidiary may be required to withhold to obtain a deduction for federal, state or
local income tax purposes as a result of such Award or to comply with applicable law. The Board in its sole discretion may make available one or more of the following alternatives for the payment of such taxes: 

(a) in cash; 

(b) in cash received from a broker-dealer to whom the Participant has submitted notice together with irrevocable instructions to deliver
promptly to the Company the amount of sales proceeds from the sale of the shares subject to the Award to pay the withholding taxes; 

(c) by directing the Company to withhold the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable in connection with the Award that have
an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld; 
 (d) by delivering previously
acquired shares of Common Stock of the Company that are acceptable to the Board that have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld; or 

(e) by certifying to ownership by attestation of such previously acquired shares of Common Stock. 

The Board shall have the sole discretion to establish the terms and conditions applicable to any alternative made available for payment of the required
withholding taxes. 
 Section 13. Nontransferability. 

Awards granted under the Plan, and any rights and privileges pertaining thereto, may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated
in any manner, or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process, by operation of law or otherwise, other than: 
 (a)
by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; 
 (b) pursuant to the terms of a qualified domestic relations order to
which the Participant is a party that meets the requirements of any relevant provisions of the Code; or 
 (c) as permitted by
the Board with respect to a NSO transferable by the Participant during his or her lifetime for no consideration to (i) the Participant’s spouse or lineal descendant, (ii) the trustee of a trust established for the primary benefit of
the Participant’s spouse or lineal descendant, (iii) a partnership of which the Participant’s spouse and lineal descendants are the only partners, or (iv) a tax-exempt organization as described in Code Section 501(c)(3).

 In each case, the transfer shall be for no value, and the other terms and conditions applicable to the transferability of the Award shall be
established by the Board. 
  

 15 

 Section 14. Termination or Amendment of Plan and Award Agreements. 

14.1 Termination or Amendment of Plan. 

(a) Except as described in Section 14.3 below, the Board may terminate, suspend, or amend the Plan, in whole or in part, from time
to time, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, unless such approval is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed. No amendment or termination of the Plan
shall adversely affect the right of any Participant under any outstanding Award in any material way without the written consent of the Participant, unless such amendment or termination is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock
exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed. Subject to the foregoing, the Board may correct any defect or supply an omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or in any Award granted hereunder in the manner and to the extent it
shall deem desirable, in its sole discretion, to effectuate the Plan. 
 (b) The Board shall have the authority to amend the
Plan to the extent necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law, regulation or accounting rules in order to permit Key Employees who are located outside of the United States to participate in the Plan. 

14.2 Amendment of Award Agreements. 

The Board shall have the authority to amend any Award Agreement at any time; provided however, that no such amendment shall adversely
affect the right of any Participant under any outstanding Award Agreement in any material way without the written consent of the Participant, unless such amendment is required by applicable law, regulation or rule of any stock exchange on which the
shares of Common Stock are listed. 
 14.3 Repricing of Stock Options or SARs 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to the Plan or any outstanding Stock Option Agreement or SAR Agreement that results in the
repricing of Stock Options or SARs shall not be effective without prior approval of the stockholders of the Company. For this purpose, repricing includes a reduction in the exercise price of a Stock Option or SAR or the cancellation of a Stock
Option or SAR in exchange for cash, Stock Options or SARs with an exercise price less than the exercise price of the cancelled Stock Options or SARs, other Awards or any other consideration provided by the Company. 

Section 15. No Contract of Employment. 

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the grant of any Award under the Plan shall be deemed to obligate the Company or any Subsidiary to
continue the employment of any Participant for any particular period, nor shall the granting of an Award constitute a request or consent to postpone the retirement date of any Participant. 

Section 16. Applicable Law. 

All questions pertaining to the validity, construction and administration of the Plan and all Awards granted under the Plan shall be
determined in conformity with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflict of law provisions of any state, and with the relevant provisions of the Code and regulations issued thereunder.

Subject:        Separation Agreement and Release 

Dear Alex: 
 The purpose of this letter
agreement (the “Agreement”) is to confirm the agreement between PTS Holdings Corp. (“Holdings”), BHP PTS Holdings L.L.C. (“BHP”) and all of their respective parents, subsidiaries and affiliated
companies (together with Holdings and BHP, collectively referred to as the “Catalent Group”) and Aleksandar Erdeljan (referred to as “You”) concerning your separation from service as a consultant to, and any other
service with (collectively, “Service”), the Catalent Group. 
 Separation Date 

You agree that your last day of Service with the Catalent Group will be April 9, 2010 (the “Separation Date”) and following such
date you will cease to be a service provider to the Catalent Group; provided, however, you acknowledge and agree that, effective February 11, 2010, you ceased serving as a director of the Board of Directors of each of Holdings and Catalent
Pharma Solutions Inc. (“Catalent”). 
 Severance Pay 

Following the Separation Date, subject to (x) receipt of this fully-executed Agreement, (y) receipt of the release of claims
attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Release”) to be executed by you on or following the Separation Date and no later than seven (7) days following the Separation Date, and (z) your adherence to the restrictive covenants
(the “Restrictive Covenants”) contained in Sections 6 and 7 of the consulting agreement, made as of May 10, 2007, between you and Holdings (the “Consulting Agreement”), you will be paid an aggregate amount of
$200,000 in severance (the “Severance Benefit”), payable in equal monthly installments over a one (1) year period following the Separation Date (the “Severance Period”). The first installment payment of
the Severance Benefit will be paid to you on the 60th day
following the Separation Date and will continue to be paid to you on a monthly basis thereafter; provided, however, that Holdings reserves the right to cease paying the Severance Benefit and you will be obligated to repay any such amounts to
Holdings already paid if you fail to execute the Release within the period provided for in this Agreement. 
 In addition to the Severance
Benefit, and irrespective of (x) furnishing the Release and (y) adherence to the Restrictive Covenants, you will be entitled to receive (i) any accrued but unpaid Retainer (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) earned through the
Separation Date and (ii) reimbursement, within sixty (60) days following submission by you to Holdings of appropriate supporting documentation, for any unreimbursed business expenses properly incurred by you in accordance with
Holdings’ policy prior to the Separation Date, provided claims for such reimbursement (accompanied by appropriate supporting documentation) are submitted to Holdings within ninety (90) days following the Separation Date. 

BHP Equity 
 Purchased
Equity 
 With respect to the 5,000 Class A Units of BHP that you previously purchased, (x) you will continue to hold all
such units subject to the terms and conditions of the Third Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of BHP, dated as of February 1, 2010, as it may be amended from time to time (the “LLC Agreement”), the
Amended and Restated Securityholders Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2007, among BHP and the other parties thereto, as it may be 

 
amended from time to time (the “Securityholders Agreement”) and the Unit Subscription Agreement, made as of September 18, 2007, by and between BHP and you (the “2007
Subscription Agreement”) and (y) BHP agrees not to exercise its right to repurchase such units pursuant to the terms of the 2007 Subscription Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, your rights as a holder of Class A Units of BHP
will not be affected by the provisions of this Agreement, your separation from Service or the exercise by the Catalent Group of the repurchase of units in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

Vested Class B-1 Units and Class C-1 Units 

With respect to the 800 Class B-1 Units of BHP subject to the Unit Grant Agreement, made as of March 27, 2008, by and between you and BHP, as
amended (the “2008 Grant Agreement”) that are Vested Units (as defined in the 2008 Grant Agreement) as of the date hereof and the 290 Class C-1 Units of BHP subject to the Unit Grant Agreement, made as of February 1,
2010, by and between you and BHP (the “2010 Grant Agreement”, together with the 2007 Subscription Agreement and the 2008 Grant Agreement, the “Unit Agreements”) that will be Vested Units (as defined in the 2010
Grant Agreement) as of the Separation Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of the 2010 Grant Agreement: 
 (i)
400 Class B-1 Units of BHP that are Vested Units as of the date hereof and 145 Class C-1 Units of BHP that will become Vested Units as of the Separation Date will remain outstanding following the Separation Date, subject to the terms
and conditions of the LLC Agreement, Securityholders Agreement, 2008 Grant Agreement and 2010 Grant Agreement, as applicable, and BHP agrees not to exercise its right to repurchase such units pursuant to the terms of the 2008 Grant Agreement and
2010 Grant Agreement, as applicable; and 
 (ii) the remaining 400 Class B-1 Units of BHP that are Vested Units as of the
date hereof and 145 Class C-1 Units of BHP that will become Vested Units as of the Separation Date will be deemed to be repurchased by BHP on the Separation Date at a price per unit equal to $0; provided that, for the avoidance of
doubt, while you will cease to have any beneficial or economic interest in such repurchased units, for purposes of Section 6.3 of the LLC Agreement, all such repurchased units shall be deemed to be outstanding. 

Unvested Class C-1 Units 

The remaining 1160 Class C-1 Units of BHP that are Unvested Units (as defined in the 2010 Grant Agreement) will remain outstanding subject to the terms
and conditions of the LLC Agreement, Securityholders Agreement, and 2010 Grant Agreement, and, in accordance with the terms of the 2010 Grant Agreement, will not be eligible to become Vested Units following the Separation Date and you will,
therefore, not have any beneficial or economic interest in such Unvested Units. 
 Unvested Class C-2 Units and Class C-3
Units 
 With respect to the 1,125 Class C-2 Units of BHP subject to the 2010 Grant Agreement and the 1,125 Class C-3 Units of
BHP subject to the 2010 Grant Agreement, such units will remain eligible, for a 12 month period following the Separation Date (the “Additional Vesting Period”), to become Vested Units subject to the applicable performance goals
having been attained during such period. 
 To the extent such units become Vested Units during the Additional Vesting Period: 

(i) 50% of each class of such units will remain outstanding, subject to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement, Securityholders
Agreement, and 2010 Grant Agreement and BHP agrees not to exercise its right to repurchase such units pursuant to the terms of the 2010 Grant Agreement; and 

(ii) the remaining 50% of each class of such units will be deemed to be repurchased by BHP on the day immediately following the last day
of the Additional Vesting Period at a price per unit equal to $0; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, while you will cease to have any beneficial or economic interest in such repurchased units, for purposes of Section 6.3 of the
LLC Agreement, all such repurchased units shall be deemed to be outstanding. 
 Any Class C-2 Units of BHP and Class C-3 Units of BHP that are
Unvested Units following the Additional Vesting Period will remain outstanding subject to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement, Securityholders Agreement, and 2010 Grant Agreement, and, in accordance with the terms of the 2010 Grant
Agreement, will not be eligible to become Vested Units following the Additional Vesting Period and you will, therefore, not have any beneficial or economic interest in such Unvested Units. 

 Restrictive Covenants 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of the Restrictive Covenants and the restrictive covenants
contained in the Unit Agreements, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (x) your separation from Service results from a termination by the Catalent Group without Cause (as defined in the Consulting Agreement) and (y) the Restricted
Period (as defined in each of the Consulting Agreement and Unit Agreements) shall terminate on the date that is six months after the Separation Date. 

No Additional Payments 
 The severance
payments and rights described in this Agreement will be the only such payments and rights you are to receive as a result of your separation from Service and you agree you are not entitled to any additional payments or rights not otherwise described
in this Agreement. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you are not eligible to be a participant in any severance or retention plan of Holdings or any of its subsidiaries. 

Litigation and Regulatory Cooperation 

You agree to cooperate fully with Holdings and its subsidiaries in the defense or prosecution of any claims or actions now in existence or which may be
brought in the future against or on behalf of Holdings or any of its subsidiaries that relate to events or occurrences that transpired during your Service with Holdings or any other member of the Catalent Group. Your full cooperation in connection
with such claims or actions shall include, but not be limited to, being available to meet with counsel to prepare for discovery or trial and to act as a witness on behalf of Holdings or any of its subsidiaries at mutually convenient times. In
scheduling your time to prepare for discovery or trial, Holdings or one of its subsidiaries, as applicable, shall attempt to minimize interference with any other employment obligations that you may have. You also will cooperate with Holdings and its
subsidiaries in connection with any investigation or review of any foreign, federal, state or local regulatory authority as any such investigation or review relates to events or occurrences that transpired while you were employed by Holdings.
Holdings will reimburse you for any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with any litigation or regulatory cooperation reasonably requested by any member of the Catalent Group provided after the Separation Date. This provision
will survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 Taxes 

It is intended that the amounts paid hereunder shall constitute revenues to you. To the extent consistent with applicable law, Holdings will not withhold
any amounts therefrom as federal income tax withholding from wages or as employee contributions under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act or any other state or federal laws. You agree that you will be solely responsible for the withholding
and/or payment of any federal, state or local income or payroll taxes and shall hold Holdings, its officers, directors and employees harmless from any liability arising from the failure to withhold such amounts. 

Compliance with IRC Section 409A 

This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”) and
will be interpreted accordingly. References under this Agreement to your separation from Service will be deemed to refer to the date upon which you experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any payment of money or benefits due to you hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, such payments or benefits will be deferred if deferral
will make such payment or benefits compliant under Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or benefits will be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Board of Directors of Holdings that does not cause such an
accelerated or additional tax. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to you under this Agreement constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits will be paid to you
in a manner consistent with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv). For purposes of Section 409A, each payment made under this Agreement will be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A.
Holdings will consult with you in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this paragraph; provided that neither Holdings nor any of its employees or representatives will have any liability to you with respect to thereto. 

 Review of Agreement and Release 

You agree and represent that you have been advised of and fully understand your right to discuss all aspects of this Agreement and the Release with
counsel of your choice. Your execution of this Agreement and Release establishes that, if you wish the advice of counsel, you have done so by the date you signed the Agreement and the Release and that your decision was knowing and voluntary.

 Modifications/Severability 

This Agreement, the LLC Agreement, the Securityholders Agreement, and the Unit Agreements constitute the entire understanding of the parties on the
subjects covered, and supersede any and all previous agreements on these subjects, including the Consulting Agreement (other than Sections 6, 7 and 8 of the Employment Agreement). The parties agree that this Agreement will not be terminated or
modified except in writing signed by you and Holdings. If any provision or portion of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, all other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will be enforced
according to their terms. 
 Full Compliance 

You acknowledge and agree that Holdings’ agreement to provide severance is expressly contingent upon your full compliance with the Restrictive
Covenants and your timely execution and delivery of the Release. 
 Successors 

You and anyone who succeeds to your rights and responsibilities are bound by this Agreement and the Release and this Agreement and the Release will accrue
to the benefit of and may be enforced by Holdings and its successors and assigns. 
 Governing Law 

You agree that all questions concerning the intention, validity or meaning of this Agreement and the Release will be construed and resolved according to
the laws of the State of Delaware. You also designate the Superior Court of Somerset County, New Jersey as the court of competent jurisdiction and venue for any actions or proceedings related to this Agreement and the Release, and hereby irrevocably
consent to such designation, jurisdiction and venue. 
 Counterparts 

This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one
in the same instrument. 
 [Rest of Page Intentionally Left Blank]

and ask that you sign an extra copy of this letter to confirm your agreement.
