 5. Administration of the Plan. 

(a) Composition of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company or a Committee which shall
consist of not less than two Directors of the Company appointed by the Board and serving at the pleasure of the Board. All persons designated as members of the Committee shall meet the requirements of: (i) a
“Non-Employee Director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as found at 17 CFR Section 240.16b-3, and (ii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors or the Committee, such requirements as the Internal Revenue Service may establish for “outside directors”
acting under plans intended to qualify for exemption under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code; provided, however, a failure to comply with the requirements of subparagraphs (i) and/or (ii) shall not disqualify any actions taken by the
Committee. A majority of the entire Committee shall constitute a quorum and the action of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be deemed the action of the Committee. All decisions, determinations and
interpretations of the Committee shall be final and conclusive on all persons affected thereby. 
 (b) Powers of the Committee. The
Committee is authorized (but only to the extent not contrary to the express provisions of the Plan or to resolutions adopted by the Board) to interpret the Plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, to
determine the type, number, form and content of Awards to be issued under the Plan and to make other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan, and shall have and may exercise such other power and authority as may be
delegated to it by the Board from time to time. The Committee shall have the authority to adjust or modify the terms and conditions of Awards, including the authority to accelerate or extend the vesting or exercisabilty of such Awards. A majority of
the entire Committee shall constitute a quorum and the action of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall be deemed the action of the Committee. Prior to the granting of Awards in accordance with the Plan,
the Committee will review the composition of the Committee, and in the event that it is determined that any member of such Committee does not satisfy the requirements at Section 5(a) herein as an “outside director,” then such
individual shall recuse himself or herself from such actions to be taken by the Committee at such meeting. In no event may the Committee revoke outstanding Awards without the consent of the Participant. 

The Chairman of the Committee, the President of the Company and such other officers as shall be designated by the Committee are hereby
authorized to execute written agreements evidencing Awards on behalf of the Company and to cause them to be delivered to the Participants. Such agreements shall set forth the Option Exercise Price, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to
such Option, the expiration date of such Options, and such other terms and restrictions applicable to such Award as are determined in accordance with the Plan or the actions of the Committee. 

(c) Effect of Committee’s Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee shall be final and
conclusive on all persons affected thereby. 
 6. Eligibility for Awards and Limitations. 

(a) The Committee shall from time to time determine the Participants who shall be granted Awards under the Plan, the number of Awards to be
granted to each such Participant, and whether Options granted to each such Participant under the Plan shall be Incentive and/or Non-Incentive Stock Options. In selecting Participants and in determining the
Awards to be granted to each such Participant, the Committee may consider the nature of the prior and anticipated future services rendered by each such Participant, each such Participant’s current and potential contribution to the Company and
such other factors as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, deem relevant. Participants who have been granted an Award may, if otherwise eligible, be granted additional Awards.

 (b) The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the Option is granted) of the
Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by each Employee during any calendar year (under all Incentive Stock Option plans, as defined in Section 422 of the Code, of the Company or any present or
future Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) shall not exceed $100,000. Notwithstanding the prior provisions of this Section 6, the Committee may grant Options in excess of the foregoing limitations, provided said Options shall be clearly and
specifically designated as not being Incentive Stock Options. 
 (c) During the period that Awards may be made under the Plan, in no event
shall Shares subject to Awards granted to any individual Participant exceed more than 25% of the total number of Shares authorized for delivery under the Plan. 

7. Term of the Plan. The Plan shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years from the Effective Date, unless sooner terminated
pursuant to Section 18 hereof. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after ten (10) years from the Effective Date. 
 8. Terms and
Conditions of Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Participants who are Employees. Each Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an instrument in such form as the Committee
shall from time to time approve. Each Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall comply with, and be subject to, the following terms and conditions: 

(a) Option Price. 

(i) The price per Share at which each Incentive Stock Option granted by the Committee under the Plan may be exercised shall
not, as to any particular Incentive Stock Option, be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date that such Incentive Stock Option is granted. 

(ii) In the case of an Employee who owns Common Stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Common Stock
at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, the Exercise Price shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date that the Incentive Stock Option is granted. 

(b) Payment. Full payment for each Share of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the
Plan shall be made at the time of exercise of each such Incentive Stock Option and shall be paid in cash (in United States Dollars), Common Stock or a combination of cash and Common Stock. Common Stock utilized in full or partial payment of the
Exercise Price must have been owned by the party exercising such Option for not less than six months prior to the date of exercise of such Option, and such Common Stock shall be valued at the Fair Market Value at the date of exercise. The Company
shall accept full or partial payment in Common Stock only to the extent permitted by applicable law. No Shares of Common Stock shall be issued until full payment has been received by the Company, and no Optionee shall have any of the rights of a
shareholder of the Company until Shares of Common Stock are issued to the Optionee. 
 (c) Term of Incentive Stock Option. The term of
exercisability of each Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be not more than ten (10) years from the date each such Incentive Stock Option is granted, provided that in the case of an Employee who owns stock representing
more than ten percent (10%) of the Common Stock outstanding at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, the term of exercisability of the Incentive Stock Option shall not exceed five (5) years. 

  
 5 

 
  

 (d) Exercise Generally. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10 hereof, no
Incentive Stock Option may be exercised unless the Optionee shall have been in the employ of the Company at all times during the period beginning with the Date of Grant of any such Incentive Stock Option and ending on the date three (3) months prior
to the date of exercise of any such Incentive Stock Option. The Committee may impose additional conditions upon the right of an Optionee to exercise any Incentive Stock Option granted hereunder which are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan
or the requirements for qualification as an Incentive Stock Option. Except as otherwise provided by the terms of the Plan or by action of the Committee, the Options will be first exercisable at the rate of 20% as of the Date of Grant of such Options
and 20% on each anniversary thereafter; provided, however, the Committee may authorize Awards that are earned and exercisable immediately. 

(e) Cashless Exercise. Subject to vesting requirements, if applicable, an Optionee who has held an Incentive Stock Option for at least
six months may engage in the “cashless exercise” of the Option. Upon a cashless exercise, an Optionee gives the Company written notice of the exercise of the Option together with an order to a registered broker-dealer or equivalent third
party, to sell part or all of the Optioned Stock and to deliver enough of the proceeds to the Company to pay the Option Exercise Price and any applicable withholding taxes. If the Optionee does not sell the Optioned Stock through a registered
broker-dealer or equivalent third party, the Optionee can give the Company written notice of the exercise of the Option and the third party purchaser of the Optioned Stock shall pay the Option Exercise Price plus any applicable withholding taxes to
the Company. Such Options shall not be deemed exercised until the Company has received full payment of the Exercise Price of such Options. 

(f) Transferability. An Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be exercised during an Optionee’s lifetime only
by the Optionee to whom it was granted and shall not be assignable or transferable otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 

9. Terms and Conditions of Non-Incentive Stock Options. Each
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an instrument in such form as the Committee shall from time to time approve. Each
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions. 

(a) Option Price. The Exercise Price per Share of Common Stock for each Non-Incentive Stock
Option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be at such price as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, but in no event less than the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock on the Date of Grant as determined by the Committee in good faith.

 (b) Payment. Full payment for each Share of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of any
Non-Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be made at the time of exercise of each such Non-Incentive Stock Option and shall be paid in cash (in United
States Dollars), Common Stock or a combination of cash and Common Stock. Common Stock utilized in full or partial payment of the Exercise Price must have been owned by the party exercising such Option for not less than six months prior to the date
of exercise of such Option, and such Common Stock shall be valued at the Fair Market Value at the date of exercise. The Company shall accept full or partial payment in Common Stock only to the extent permitted by applicable law. No Shares of Common
Stock shall be issued until full payment has been received by the Company and no Optionee shall have any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company until the Shares of Common Stock are issued to the Optionee. 

(c) Term. The term of exercisability of each Non-Incentive Stock Option granted pursuant to the
Plan shall be not more than ten (10) years from the date each such Non-Incentive Stock Option is granted. 

(d) Exercise Generally. The Committee may impose additional conditions upon the right of any Participant to exercise any Non-Incentive Stock Option granted hereunder which is not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. Except as otherwise provided by the terms of the Plan or by action of the Committee, the Options will be first
exercisable at the rate of 20% as of the Date of Grant of such Options and 20% on each anniversary thereafter, provided, however, the Committee may authorize Awards that are earned and exercisable immediately. 

  
 6 

 
  

 (e) Cashless Exercise. Subject to vesting requirements, if applicable, an Optionee who has
held a Non-Incentive Stock Option for at least six months may engage in the “cashless exercise” of the Option. Upon a cashless exercise, an Optionee gives the Company written notice of the exercise
of the Option together with an order to a registered broker-dealer or equivalent third party, to sell part or all of the Optioned Stock and to deliver enough of the proceeds to the Company to pay the Option Exercise Price and any applicable
withholding taxes. If the Optionee does not sell the Optioned Stock through a registered broker-dealer or equivalent third party, the Optionee can give the Company written notice of the exercise of the Option and the third party purchaser of the
Optioned Stock shall pay the Option Exercise Price plus any applicable withholding taxes to the Company. Such Options shall not be deemed exercised until the Company has received full payment of the Exercise Price of such Options. 

(f) Transferability. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit
transferability or assignment of a Non-Incentive Stock Option by a Participant if such transfer or assignment is, in the Committee’s sole determination, for valid estate planning purposes and such
transfer or assignment is permitted under the Code. For purposes of this Section, a transfer for valid estate planning purposes includes, but is not limited to: (a) a transfer to a revocable inter vivos trust as to which the Participant is both
the settlor and trustee, or (b) a transfer for no consideration to: (i) any member of the Participant’s Immediate Family, (ii) any trust solely for the benefit of members of the Participant’s Immediate Family, (iii) any
partnership whose only partners are members of the Participant’s Immediate Family, and (iv) any limited liability corporation or corporate entity whose only members or equity owners are members of the Participant’s Immediate Family.
For purposes of this Section, “Immediate Family” includes, but is not necessarily limited to, a Participant’s parents, grandparents, spouse, children, grandchildren, siblings (including half bothers and sisters), and individuals who
are family members by adoption. Nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to require the Committee to give its approval to any transfer or assignment of any Non-Incentive Stock Option or portion
thereof, and approval to transfer or assign any Non-Incentive Stock Option or portion thereof does not mean that such approval will be given with respect to any other
Non-Incentive Stock Option or portion thereof. The transferee or assignee of any Non-Incentive Stock Option shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions
applicable to such Non-Incentive Stock Option immediately prior to the transfer or assignment and shall be subject to any other conditions proscribed by the Committee with respect to such Non-Incentive Stock Option. 
 10. Effect of Termination of Employment, Disability or Death on Incentive Stock Options.

 (a) Termination of Employment. In the event that any Optionee’s employment with the Company shall terminate for any
reason, other than Disability or death, all of any such Optionee’s Incentive Stock Options, and all of any such Optionee’s rights to purchase or receive Shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto, shall automatically terminate on (A) the
earlier of (i) or (ii): (i) the respective expiration dates of any such Incentive Stock Options, or (ii) the expiration of not more than three (3) months after the date of such termination of employment; or (B) at such later date
as is determined by the Committee, in which case such Award shall be deemed a Non-Incentive Stock Option after such three month period has elapsed. In the event that a Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary of
the Company, the employment of all of its employees who are not immediately thereafter employees of the Company shall be deemed to terminate upon the date such Subsidiary so ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company. 

(b) Disability. Except as may be specified by the Committee at the time of grant of an Option, in the event that any Optionee’s
employment with the Company shall terminate as the result of the Disability of such Optionee, such Optionee may exercise any Incentive Stock Options which is then exercisable at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the respective expiration
dates of any such Incentive Stock Options or (ii) the date which is one (1) year after the date of such termination of employment as a result of such Disability, but only if, and to the extent that, the Optionee was entitled to exercise
any such Incentive Stock Options at the date of such termination of employment. 

  
 7 

 
  

 (c) Death. Except as may be specified by the Committee at the time of grant of an Option,
in the event of the death of an Optionee, any Incentive Stock Options granted to such Optionee which is then exercisable may be exercised by the Beneficiary at any time prior to the earlier of (i) the respective expiration dates of any such
Incentive Stock Options or (ii) the date, if any, specified at the time of grant of such Award. At the discretion of the Committee, upon exercise of such Options the Optionee may receive Shares or cash or a combination thereof. If cash shall be
paid in lieu of Shares, such cash shall be equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of such Shares and the Exercise Price of such Options on the exercise date. 

(d) Incentive Stock Options Deemed Exercisable. For purposes of Sections 10(a), 10(b) and 10(c) above, any Incentive Stock Option held
by any Optionee shall be considered exercisable at the date of termination of employment if any such Incentive Stock Option would have been exercisable at such date of termination of employment without regard to the Disability or death of the
Participant. 
 (e) Termination of Incentive Stock Options. Except as may be specified by the Committee, to the extent that any
Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan to any Optionee whose employment with the Company terminates shall not have been exercised within the applicable period set forth in this Section 10, any such Incentive Stock Option, and all rights
to purchase or receive Shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto, as the case may be, shall terminate on the last day of the applicable period. 
 11.
Effect of Termination of Employment, Disability or Death on Non-Incentive Stock Options. The terms and conditions of Non-Incentive Stock Options relating to the
effect of the termination of an Optionee’s employment or service, Disability of an Optionee or his death shall be such terms and conditions as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine at the time of termination of service, unless
specifically provided for by the terms of the Agreement at the time of grant of the award. 
 12. Stock Awards. 

The Committee may make grants of Stock Awards, which shall consist of the grant of some number of Shares, to a Participant upon such terms and
conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions: 
 (a) Grants of the
Stock Awards. Stock Awards may only be made in whole shares of Common Stock. Stock Awards may only be granted from Shares reserved under the Plan. 

(b) Terms of the Stock Awards. The Committee shall determine the dates on which Stock Awards granted to a Participant shall vest and be
earned and any terms or conditions which must be satisfied prior to the vesting of any Stock Award or portion thereof. Any such terms or conditions shall be determined by the Committee as of the Date of Grant, except as may be otherwise modified
thereafter by action of the Committee within its discretion. To the extent that Stock Awards shall vest based upon performance goals which must be satisfied prior to the vesting of any installment or portion of a Stock Award, such performance goals
shall be determined by the Committee either on an individual level, for all Participants, for all Stock Awards made for a given period of time, or as otherwise determined by the Committee. No Stock Award or portion thereof that is subject to the
satisfaction of any condition other than the passage of time shall be considered to be earned or vested until the Committee certifies in writing that the conditions to which the earning or vesting of such Stock Award is subject have been achieved.

 (c) Termination of Employment or Service (General). Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, upon the termination of a
Participant’s employment or service for any reason other than Disability or death, termination for Cause, or following a Change in Control, any Stock Awards in which the Participant has not become vested as of the date of such termination shall
be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such Stock Awards shall become null and void. 

  
 8 

 
  

 (d) Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
any Stock Awards in which the Participant has not become vested as of the date of termination of employment or service shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards shall become null and void. 

(e) Termination of Employment or Service (Disability or Death). Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a
termination of the Participant’s service due to Disability or death, all unvested Stock Awards held by such Participant shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards shall become null and void. 

(f) Termination of Employment or Service (Termination for Cause). Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, or in the event of the
Participant’s termination for Cause, all Stock Awards in which the Participant had not become vested as of the effective date of such Termination for Cause shall be forfeited and any rights such Participant had to such unvested Stock Awards
shall become null and void. 
 (g) Acceleration Upon a Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, all unvested Stock
Awards held by a Participant shall immediately become earned and non-forfeitable. 
 (h) Maximum
Individual Award. During the period during which Stock Awards may be made under the Plan, no individual Participant shall be granted an amount of Stock Awards which exceeds 25% of the aggregate maximum number of Stock Awards authorized to be
granted under the Plan. 
 (i) Issuance of Certificates. Certificates representing Shares of vested Stock Awards shall be distributed
as soon as administratively feasible following the date that such Stock Awards are deemed earned and non-forefeitable, subject to satisfaction of applicable tax withholding requirements. In the event that a Participant shall make a
Section 83(b) election in accordance with Section 83(b) of the Code, then a Certificate representing such Stock Award shall be issued by the Company reasonably promptly with respect to such Shares for which such Section 83(b) election
is being made; provided that the Company shall not cause such a stock certificate to be issued unless it has received a stock power duly endorsed in blank with respect to such Shares and each such stock certificate shall bear the following legend:

 “The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the restrictions, terms and
conditions (including forfeiture provisions and restrictions against transfer) contained in the Sun Bancorp, Inc. 2010 Stock-Based Incentive Plan and related Stock Award Agreement entered into between the registered owner of such shares and Sun
Bancorp, Inc. A copy of the Plan and Stock Award Agreement is on file in the office of the Corporate Secretary of Sun Bancorp, Inc., 226 Landis Avenue, Vineland, New Jersey 08360. The recipient of this Stock Award shall not sell, transfer, assign,
pledge, or otherwise encumber shares subject to the Stock Award until full vesting of such shares has occurred. For purposes of this restriction, the separation of beneficial ownership and legal title through the use of any “swap”
transaction is deemed to be a prohibited encumbrance.” 
 Such legend shall not be removed until the Participant becomes vested in such
Shares pursuant to the terms of the Plan and the Stock Award Agreement. 
 (j)
Non-Transferability. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee and except in the event of the Participant’s death or pursuant to a domestic relations order, a Stock Award is not transferable and
may be earned in his lifetime only by the Participant to whom it is granted. Upon the death of a Participant, a Stock Award is transferable by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The designation of a Beneficiary shall not constitute a
transfer. 

  
 9 

 
  

 (k) Dividend Rights. A Participant shall be entitled to receive a payment from the Company
equal to any cash dividends declared and paid on the Shares represented by a Stock Award from the Date of Grant of such Stock Award through date that the relevant Stock Award or installment thereof is issued. Such payment shall be made by the
Company within thirty days of the respective dividend payment date, subject to applicable tax withholding. 
 (l) Voting of Stock
Awards. Shares represented by a Stock Award which has not yet been vested, earned and distributed to the Participant pursuant to the Plan shall not be voted by such Participant. 

(m) Payment. Payment due to a Participant upon the Stock Award being earned and vested shall be made in the form of shares of Common
Stock. 
 (n) Stock Awards for Directors and Advisory Directors. Subject to the limitations on Stock Awards as set forth at
Section 3 herein, as of and after the Effective Date, each Director and Advisory Director of the Company and the Bank shall receive payment of board meeting fees in the form of Stock Awards based upon the meeting fees established for such
meetings from time to time by the Board of the Company and the Bank and the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of such meeting. In addition, Directors of the Company and the Bank may elect in accordance with procedures established by the
Plan Committee to receive payment of any annual retainer in the form of a Stock Award valued at the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of such payment in lieu of such cash payment. Unless otherwise inapplicable, or inconsistent with the
provisions of this paragraph, the Stock Awards to be granted to Directors and Advisory Directors hereunder shall be subject to all other applicable provisions of this Plan. 

(o) Elections Pursuant to Deferred Compensation Program. To the extent permitted by the Committee, the recipient of a Stock Award may
elect to defer the income tax liability associated therewith pursuant to the terms of a non-qualified deferred compensation plan maintained by the Company or a Subsidiary in which the recipient is eligible to
participate. The Committee intends through “good-faith” efforts for any such non-qualified deferred compensation plans to be administered in compliance with Section 409A of the Code and related
regulations and notices, however, the Company will not have any liability to a participant under any such plans for any tax liability that may be incurred with respect to Section 409A of the Code. 

13. Recapitalization, Merger, Consolidation, Change in Control and Other Transactions. 

(a) Adjustment. Subject to any required action by the shareholders of the Company, the aggregate number of Shares of Common Stock for
which Awards may be granted hereunder, the number of Shares of Common Stock covered by each outstanding Awards, and the Exercise Price per Share of Common Stock of each such Option, shall all be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease
in the number of issued and outstanding Shares of Common Stock resulting from a subdivision or consolidation of Shares (whether by reason of merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, split-up,
combination of shares, or otherwise) or the payment of a stock dividend (but only on the Common Stock) or any other increase or decrease in the number of such Shares of Common Stock effected without the receipt or payment of consideration by the
Company (other than Shares held by dissenting shareholders). 
 (b) Change in Control. All outstanding Awards shall become immediately
earned and exercisable in the event of a Change in Control of the Company. In the event of such a Change in Control, the Committee and the Board of Directors will take one or more of the following actions to be effective as of the date of such
Change in Control: 
 (i) provide that such Options and Stock Awards shall be assumed, or equivalent options and stock awards
shall be substituted, (“Substitute Options”) by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), provided that: (A) any such Substitute Options exchanged for Incentive Stock Options shall meet the requirements of
Section 424(a) of the Code, and (B) the shares of stock issuable upon the exercise of such Substitute Options shall constitute securities registered in accordance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (“1933 Act”) or such
securities shall be 

  
 10 

 
  

 
exempt from such registration in accordance with Sections 3(a)(2) or 3(a)(5) of the 1933 Act, (collectively, “Registered Securities”), or in the alternative, if the securities issuable
upon the exercise of such Substitute Options shall not constitute Registered Securities, then the Optionee will receive upon the exercise of the Substitute Options a cash payment for each Option surrendered equal to the difference between
(1) the Fair Market Value of the consideration to be received for each share of Common Stock in the Change in Control transaction times the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such surrendered Options, and (2) the aggregate
Exercise Price of all such surrendered Options, or 
 (ii) in the event of a transaction under the terms of which the holders
of the Common Stock of the Company will receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment (the “Merger Price”) for each share of Common Stock exchanged in the Change in Control transaction, to make an appropriate cash payment equal to the
Merger Price for any Stock Awards and to make or to provide for a cash payment to the Optionees equal to the difference between (A) the Merger Price times the number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Options held by each Optionee (to
the extent then exercisable at prices not in excess of the Merger Price) and (B) the aggregate Exercise Price of all such surrendered Options in exchange for such surrendered Options. 

(c) Extraordinary Corporate Action. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the contrary, subject to any required action by the
shareholders of the Company, in the event of any Change in Control, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, exchange of Shares, spin-off, reorganization, tender offer, partial or complete liquidation or other
extraordinary corporate action or event, the Committee shall, prior or subsequent to such action or event: 
 (i)
appropriately adjust the number of Shares of Common Stock subject to each Stock Award and Option, the Option Exercise Price per Share of Common Stock, and the consideration to be given or received by the Company upon the exercise of any outstanding
Option; and/or 
 (ii) cancel any or all previously granted Options, provided that appropriate consideration is paid to the
Optionee in connection therewith; 
 provided, however, that no action shall be taken by the Committee which would cause Incentive Stock Options granted
pursuant to the Plan to fail to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code without the consent of the Optionee. 
 (d)
Acceleration. The Committee shall at all times have the power to accelerate the vesting or exercise date of an Award previously granted under the Plan. 

(e) Excluded Transaction. To the extent that the Company undertakes a transaction or series of transactions with investors
(“Investors”) whereby the Company will raise additional capital through the issuance of various equity instruments, including, but not limited to voting common stock, non-voting common stock,
warrants, and convertible preferred stock (“SNBC Stock”) to such Investors and current stockholders (the “Transaction”), and the Company, following approval of such Transaction by the Board of Directors, will seek the approval of
its shareholders for the Transaction and related stock issuances before the total shares of voting Common Stock issued in the Transaction equals or exceeds 25% of the total shares of voting Common Stock outstanding before such issuance, then such
Transaction shall not be deemed an event or occurrence that is considered a Change in Control in accordance with the Plan. Further, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, such issuance of the SNBC Stock by the Company contemplated by
such Transaction shall not be deemed to constitute a Change in Control with respect to any outstanding Awards and any agreements representing such Awards. Further, the Participants will not be accorded any rights or benefits in the administration
and interpretation of the Plan or any stock option agreements or restricted stock award agreements with respect to the Awards resulting from the SNBC Stock to be issued in the Transaction. 

  
 11 

 
  

 Except as expressly provided in Sections 13(a) and 13(b), no Participant shall have any rights by
reason of the occurrence of any of the events described in this Section 13. 
 14. Time of Granting Awards. The Date of Grant of an Award
under the Plan shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Committee makes the determination of such action or such later date as determined by the Committee at the time of such action. Notice of the grant of an Award shall be given to each
Participant to whom an Award is so made within a reasonable time after such grant in a form determined by the Committee. Awards under the Plan may be made by the Committee only after the Plan is approved by shareholders. 

15. Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective as of the date of approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company. 

16. Shareholder Approval. The Plan shall be approved by a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy with respect to approval of the Plan
at a meeting of the shareholders of the Company held within twelve (12) months of the date the Plan is approved by the Board. 
 17.
Modification of Options. At any time and from time to time, the Board may authorize the Committee to direct the execution of an instrument providing for the modification of any outstanding Option, provided no such modification, extension or
renewal shall confer on the holder of said Option any right or benefit which could not be conferred on the Optionee by the grant of a new Option at such time, or shall not materially decrease the Optionee’s benefits under the Option without the
consent of the holder of the Option, except as otherwise permitted under Section 18 hereof; provided, however, that no such amendment may have the effect of repricing the Exercise Price of Options without shareholder approval of such action.

 18. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. 

(a) Action by the Board. The Board may alter, suspend or discontinue the Plan, except that no action of the Board may increase (other
than as provided in Section 13 hereof) the maximum number of Shares permitted to be issued under the Plan, materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or materially modify the requirements for eligibility for
participation in the Plan unless such action of the Board shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Board or the Committee amend the Plan or amend an Award
under the Plan which allows the Exercise Price of any Option or SAR granted under the Plan to be reduced after the Date of Grant, except as otherwise permitted in accordance with Section 13 of the Plan, without shareholder approval of such
action. 
 (b) Change in Applicable Law. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in the Plan, in the event of a change in any
federal or state law, rule, regulation or policy which would make the exercise or vesting of all or part of any previously granted Award unlawful or subject the Company to any penalty, the Committee may restrict any such exercise or vesting without
the consent of the Participant or other holder thereof in order to comply with any such law, rule or regulation or to avoid any such penalty. 
 19.
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Limitations on Option Exercise; Cancellation of Award Rights. 
 (a) Shares shall not be issued with
respect to any Award granted under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of applicable law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder, any applicable state securities laws and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed. 

  
 12 

 
  

 (b) The inability of the Company to obtain any necessary authorizations, approvals or letters of non-objection from any regulatory body or authority deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares issuable hereunder shall relieve the Company of any liability
with respect to the non-issuance or sale of such Shares. 
 (c) As a condition to the exercise of an
Option or the delivery of Shares, the Company may require the person exercising the Option or to receive such Shares to make such representations and warranties as may be necessary to assure the availability of an exemption from the registration
requirements of federal or state securities law. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the termination of employment
or service of a Participant by the Company or its Subsidiaries for “cause” as determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee, all Awards held by such Participant shall cease to be exercisable as of the date of such termination of
employment or service and any Shares that have not yet been delivered to the Participant shall be forfeited. 
 (e) Upon the exercise of an
Option by an Optionee (or the Optionee’s personal representative), the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make a cash payment to the Optionee, in whole or in part, in lieu of the delivery of shares of Common Stock. Such cash
payment to be paid in lieu of delivery of Common Stock shall be equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of the Option exercise and the Exercise Price per share of the Option. Such cash payment shall be
in exchange for the cancellation of such Option. Such cash payment shall not be made in the event that such transaction would result in liability to the Optionee or the Company under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder. 
 20. Reservation of Shares. During the term of the Plan, the Company will reserve and keep
available a number of Shares sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 
 21. Unsecured Obligation. No Participant under the Plan
shall have any interest in any fund or special asset of the Company by reason of the Plan or the grant of any Option under the Plan. No trust fund shall be created in connection with the Plan or any grant of any Option hereunder and there shall be
no required funding of amounts which may become payable to any Participant. 
 22. No Employment Rights. No officer, Director, Employee or
Advisory Director shall have a right to be selected as a Participant under the Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken by the Committee in administration of the Plan shall be construed as giving any person any rights of employment or retention
as an Employee, Director, Advisory Director or in any other capacity with the Company, the Bank or other Subsidiaries. 
 23. Withholding Tax.
The Company shall have the right to deduct from all amounts to be paid in cash with respect to any Awards or related dividend rights associated with Stock Awards any taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to such cash payments. Where
a Participant or other person is entitled to receive Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option, SAR or the delivery of a Stock Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant or such other person to pay the Company the amount
of any taxes which the Company is required to withhold with respect to such Shares, or, in lieu thereof, to retain, or to sell without notice, a number of such Shares sufficient to cover the amount required to be withheld. 

24. Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey, except to the extent that
federal law shall be deemed to apply. 
 25. Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may make grants of SARs to a Participant upon such terms
and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions and the terms of the Plan generally: 

  
 13 

 
  

 (a) Terms. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by an SAR Award Agreement that shall specify
the grant price (which shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of such Stock on the Date of Grant), the term of the SAR (not to exceed ten years from the Date of Grant), and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. SARs may be
granted independent of Options awarded or in tandem with and simultaneous with Options awarded, if such tandem award determination is made at the time of such Option award. SARs granted in tandem with Options shall relate to the same number of
underlying Shares; have the same Exercise Price, exercise period, vesting date and other terms and conditions as the Option to which it relates. The vesting schedule of an SAR shall accelerate upon a Change in Control, or upon the accelerated
vesting of its tandem Option award. The terms and conditions of SARs not otherwise granted in tandem with Options relating to the impact of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service, or his or her Disability or death, or upon a
Change in Control shall be such terms and conditions as the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine at the time of such event, or as provided for by the terms of the SAR Award Agreement at the Date of Grant. 

(b) Method of Exercise. An SAR that has become exercisable may be exercised by written notice to the Company stating the number of SARs
being exercised and satisfying such other conditions as may be prescribed in the SAR Award Agreement or by the Committee. If such SAR was granted in tandem with an Option, the exercise of one instrument shall result in the simultaneous expiration
and cancellation of the tandem instrument. 
 (c) Settlement upon Exercise. Upon the exercise of an SAR, the Participant shall be
entitled to receive an amount determined by multiplying (a) the difference obtained by subtracting the grant price of such SAR (which shall be equivalent to the Exercise Price of such tandem Option, if applicable) from the Fair Market Value of
a Share on the date of exercise, by (b) the number of SARs exercised. The payment upon the exercise of an SAR shall be in the form of such number of Shares of equivalent value calculated based upon the Fair Market Value on such date of
exercise, except that any fractional Shares shall be paid in cash. The Participant shall have no rights of ownership with respect to the Common Stock until such Common Stock has been issued following the exercise of such SAR. 

26. No Deferral of Compensation Under Section 409A of the Code. All Awards granted under the Plan are designed to not
constitute a deferral of compensation for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, all of the terms and conditions of any Option granted under this Plan shall be designed to satisfy
the exemption for stock options set forth in the regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code. Both this Plan and the terms of all Options granted hereunder shall be interpreted in a manner that requires compliance with all of the
requirements of the exemption for stock options set forth in the regulations issued under Section 409A of the Code. No Optionee shall be permitted to defer the recognition of income beyond the exercise date of a
Non-ISO Option or beyond the date that the Common Stock received upon the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option is sold, and no Participant shall be permitted to defer the recognition of income beyond the date
that a Stock Award or SAR shall be deemed earned in accordance with the Plan.

 Exhibit 10.4 

SUN BANCORP, INC. 

DIRECTORS STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 

As Amended and Restated 
  

	1.	Purpose and Plan Summary. 

 The Sun Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) Directors
Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) offers a convenient and economical way for its directors and advisory directors to increase their ownership of shares of the Common Stock of Sun Bancorp, Inc. (“Common Stock”). Once a director or
advisory director of the Company or Sun National Bank is enrolled as a Participant in the Plan, contributions of up to $2,000 per month may be made to the Plan and such funds will be used to purchase Common Stock under the terms of the Plan.
Participation in the Plan is strictly voluntary, and the Participant will pay 95% of the purchase price of the Common Stock purchased under the Plan. The Participant pays no brokerage commissions or service charges for purchases made under the Plan.
Any such charges will be paid by the Company. 
  

	2.	Administration. 

 The Company will serve as the Plan Administrator (“Plan
Administrator”) to administer the Plan and to make purchases of Common Stock as agent for the Participants. The Board of Directors of the Company (“Board of Directors”) has the authority to make changes in the Plan and to appoint or
to remove the Plan Administrator, at any time. Until changed by further notice, any notices or communications to the Plan should be directed to the Plan Administrator, Director Stock Purchase Plan, c/o Corporate Secretary, Sun Bancorp, Inc., 226
Landis Avenue, Vineland, New Jersey 08360. 
 If a director or advisory director decides to participate in the Plan, the Plan Administrator
will keep a continuous record of his/her participation and send him/her a statement of his/her account under the Plan for each calendar month in which a purchase of Common Stock under his/her Plan account occurs. The Plan Administrator will also
hold and act as custodian of shares purchased under the Plan. Certificates for shares purchased under the Plan will be held by the Plan Administrator. The number of shares credited to a Participant’s account under the Plan will be shown on
his/her statement of account. However, certificates for whole shares credited to a Participant’s account under the Plan will be issued to him/her upon his/her written request to the Plan Administrator, at the address set forth above.
Certificates for fractional share interests will not be issued. 
 The Plan Administrator reserves the right to interpret the provisions of
the Plan. The Plan Administrator may establish such procedures and make such other provisions for the administration and operation of the Plan as it deems appropriate to give effect to the Plan’s purpose. The Plan Administrator may rely on the
authority and correctness of written instructions received from the Company and Participants in administering the Plan. 
  

	3.	Eligibility. 

 All directors and advisory directors of the Company and its subsidiaries
that, along with the Company, is a member of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in section 1563 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), are eligible to participate in the Plan. 

  
 1 

	4.	Election to Participate. 

 An eligible director or advisory director may join the Plan by
completing the Authorization Form provided by the Plan Administrator and returning it to the Plan Administrator at the address noted at Section 2 herein. Authorization Forms will be furnished to eligible directors and advisory directors at any
time upon request to the Company. An eligible director or advisory director may join the Plan at any time to become effective as of the first day of the next calendar month after the request is received by the Plan Administrator (the
“Enrollment Date”). 
  

	5.	Participant Contributions. 

 The Authorization Form directs the Company to pay to the
Plan Administrator the amount that the Participant elects to pay directly to the Company for investment in Common Stock under the Plan. The Authorization Form also directs the Plan Administrator to use these payments for the purchase of shares of
the Common Stock. 
 After an Authorization Form has been received by the Plan Administrator, the Company will pay to the Plan Administrator
all future payments received by the Company for participation under the Plan. The amounts paid by all Participants will be pooled and forwarded to the Plan Administrator to purchase shares of Common Stock for the accounts of all Participants under
the Plan not less frequently than monthly prior to the next “Investment Period”. The “Investment Period” shall consist of the calendar month following each receipt of funds by the Plan Administrator, during which such funds are
invested by the Plan Administrator in Common Stock of the Company. To the extent administratively feasible, such funds shall be invested on the first business day of each Investment Period, or as soon as practical thereafter. No interest will be
paid by the Company or the Plan Administrator on amounts held on behalf of a Participant awaiting investment. 
 The Plan shall remain in
effect for an indefinite period of time until the total shares purchased under the Plan equals the total shares of Common Stock authorized under the Plan or the Plan is terminated by the Company, whichever is earlier. Participant contributions may
be made in even multiples of $5.00 from a minimum of $10.00 to a maximum of $2,000 per month. No interest will be paid on Participant contributions awaiting investment. The amount of a Participant’s contributions can be revised, changed or
terminated by the Participant each month. 
  

	6.	Stock Purchase Price. 

 A Participant shall be granted an option to purchase Common Stock
as of the last business day of each calendar month (“Option Grant Date”) at an option exercise price equal to 95% of the average purchase price of the Common Stock purchased during the Investment Period immediately following the Option
Grant Date. Any fraction of a cent will be rounded to the nearest cent. Options granted hereunder shall be nontransferable. 
  

	7.	Number of Shares Purchased. 

 During each Investment Period, accumulated Participant
contributions from all Participants and cash dividends held under the Plan for all Participants will be pooled and used to purchase shares of Common Stock in the open-market, or otherwise, for the accounts of the Participants. The Company shall
transmit sufficient funds to the Plan Administrator in addition to accumulated Participant contributions and cash dividends necessary to permit the Plan Administrator to purchase Common Stock during each Investment Period without regard to any
purchase price discounts in accordance with the Plan. The maximum number of whole shares will be purchased. Any Participant contributions and cash dividends 

  
 2 

 
remaining after purchase of such maximum number of whole shares will be retained and applied to the purchase of shares during the next Investment Period. Each Participant’s account will be
credited with his/her pro rata share (computed to four decimal places) of the shares purchased and any additional Participant contributions and cash dividends which have been accumulated. The number of shares credited to each
Participant’s account will depend upon the amount of the Participant’s contributions and cash dividends and the option exercise price as determined as provided under the heading “Stock Purchase Price.” 

 

	8.	Fees and Expenses. 

 Participants will incur no brokerage commissions or service charges
for purchases of Common Stock made under the Plan. Certain charges as described under the heading “Withdrawal” may be incurred upon a Participant’s withdrawal from the Plan or upon termination of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may
deduct expenses from the Plan to the extent that such expenses have not been paid directly by the Company; provided that not less than 15 days written notice of such intent to make such deductions is furnished to the Company. 

 

	9.	Withdrawal and Distribution of Stock Certificates. 

 A Participant may withdraw from the
Plan at any time to be effective as of the first day of any calendar quarter (January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1) following receipt of such notice. Upon termination of service with the Company or its subsidiaries as a director or
advisory director, participation under the Plan shall immediately cease and no unexercised options to purchase Common Stock under the Plan shall be deemed exercisable. Termination of service shall include termination as a result of death or
disability of the Participant. Within 10 business days following a Participant’s termination of service with the Company or its subsidiaries, the Participant shall submit to the Plan Administrator a distribution form requesting withdrawal from
the Plan and distribution of all of the Participant’s assets under the Plan either in the form of cash or whole shares of Common Stock. If such withdrawal request is not received by the Plan Administrator within 10 business days of the
Participant’s termination of service with the Company or its subsidiaries, the Plan Administrator will nevertheless process such Participant withdrawal, and the Participant will receive such distribution in the form of shares of Common Stock
issued in book entry. 
 To withdraw from the Plan, a Participant must notify the Plan Administrator at the address noted at Section 2,
herein, in writing of his/her withdrawal. In the event a Participant withdraws, or in the event of the termination of the Plan, certificates for whole shares credited to the account of the withdrawing Participant, or all Participants in the case of
a termination of the Plan, will be delivered by the Plan Administrator and a cash payment will be made for the sale price (less brokerage commission and transfer taxes, if any) of any fractional share interests and any additional Participant
contributions credited to the account of the withdrawing Participant, or all Participants in the case of a termination of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may establish such equitable arrangements for the sale of fractional share interests as it
shall deem appropriate. As an alternative to receiving certificates for whole shares, a Participant may request the Plan Administrator to sell such shares to be distributed under the Plan. The proceeds from the sale of such shares, less any
brokerage commissions and any transfer taxes, will be remitted to the Participant. The Plan Administrator may accumulate requests to sell Common Stock under the Plan and sales transactions, if necessary, will occur in the subsequent Investment
Period from which they are received, as determined by the Plan Administrator. Alternatively, Common Stock directed for sale during an Investment Period in which there is also a request to purchase Common Stock during such Investment Period may be
matched by the Plan Administrator for the benefit of Plan Participants (both sellers and purchasers) without the need to execute such transaction on the national securities exchange in which such Common Stock trades. The trade price on such matched
transactions will be deemed to equal the average purchase price paid by the Plan Administrator for all other Common Stock purchased by the Plan Administrator under the Plan during that Investment Period. 

  
 3 

 If a request by a Participant to withdraw from the Plan is received by the Plan Administrator
prior to the first day of any calendar quarter, the amount of the Participant contributions scheduled to be invested during the next Investment Period will not be so invested. In either event, no subsequent Participant contributions will be made
accepted by such Participant, unless he/she completes a new Authorization Form. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request to
the Plan Administrator, a Participant may request the distribution of shares held under the Plan in stock certificates of not less than 100 share increments at any time. Alternatively, a Participant may request that such distribution be made in the
form of cash, in which case such distribution of cash will be made in accordance with the procedures regarding the sale of shares as noted above in Section 9 of the Plan. Such distribution of Plan shares or cash in accordance with this
paragraph shall not be deemed a “Withdrawal” under the Plan. Such distributions whether in the form of stock certificates or cash may be requested at any time to be effective as of the first day of any calendar quarter (January 1,
April 1, July 1 and October 1) following receipt of such notice. 
  

	10.	Voting of Shares. 

 Each Participant will have the authority to direct the Plan
Administrator in the manner of voting the number of whole shares and fractional shares of Common Stock held in his/her account. The Company will pay for or reimburse the Plan Administrator for the expenses associated with solicitation of voting
proxies and distribution of related materials performed by the Plan Administrator. The aggregate number of remaining shares representing shares for which no Participant voting instructions are received in a timely manner shall not be voted by the
Plan Administrator. 
  

	11.	Cash Dividends. 

 Cash dividends paid on shares credited to a Participant’s account
will be retained in the Participant’s account and invested in Common Stock as soon as practicable following the dividend payment date. Such cash dividends (less applicable tax withholding that may be required) will be aggregated with each
Participant’s contributions and invested in accordance with Section 6 and 7 herein. Dividend amounts payable to Participants will be rounded to the nearest whole cent in the case of fractional share interests. 

 

	12.	Stock Dividends, Stock Splits, or Rights Offering. 

 Any shares distributed by the
Company as a stock dividend on shares credited to a Participant’s account under the Plan, or upon any split of such shares, will be credited to his/her account. In a rights offering, the Plan Administrator will sell the rights to which a
Participant is entitled by virtue of the shares of Common Stock allocated to his/her account under the Plan and the proceeds will be credited to his/her account and applied to the purchase of shares during the next Investment Period. 

 

	13.	Purchases under the Plan. 

 The Plan Administrator shall use all funds received under the
Plan for the purchase of the Company’s Common Stock in the open-market; or upon not less than 10 days written notice from the Company, such funds shall be utilized for the purchase of shares directly from the Company. The price, timing and
other matters related to the execution and processing of such purchases shall be determined or directed by the Plan Administrator; provided that to the extent administratively feasible, such purchases of Common Stock shall be made on the first
business day of each Investment Period, as provided at Section 5 herein. 

  
 4 

	14.	Amendment and Termination. 

 Although the Company intends to continue the Plan until the
total number of shares authorized under the Plan shall have been purchased by Participants, the Company reserves the right to suspend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time. Any such suspension, modification or termination shall not affect a
Participant’s right to receive shares of Common Stock already purchased for him/her (except that the Company may take any action necessary to comply with applicable law). Upon the termination of the Plan, the Company shall return to
Participants any uninvested accumulated Participant contributions as soon as practicable. 
  

	15.	Reports. 

 Each Participant will receive a statement of his/her account not less than
four times per year. Upon written request, a Participant may receive an account statement for each calendar month in which he/she purchases Common Stock under the Plan. Participants will also receive communications sent by the Company to other
stockholders, including the Annual Report of the Company, and its Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy Statement. Participants will receive information necessary for reporting income realized by them under the Plan to the Internal Revenue Service.

  

	16.	Tax Withholding. 

 Taxes which may be required to be withheld with respect to cash
dividends received under the Plan will reduce the sums attributable to such dividends available for investment under the Plan. 
  

	17.	Related Matters. 

 The Company and the Plan Administrator in administering the Plan will
not be liable for any act done in good faith or for the good faith omission to act, including, without limitation, any claim of liability arising out of failure to terminate a Participant’s account upon such Participant’s death or
judicially declared incompetency prior to receipt by the Plan Administrator of timely notice in writing of such death or incompetency or with respect to the prices at which shares are purchased for the Participant’s account, and the times when
such purchases are made, or with respect to any loss or fluctuation in the market value after purchase of shares of Common Stock. 
 A
Participant’s investment in shares acquired under the Plan is not different from direct investment in shares of Common Stock of the Company, except to the extent that the purchase price of such Common Stock paid by the Participant shall be
equal to 95% of the actual purchase price of such Common Stock by the Plan Administrator. The Participant bears the risk of loss and realizes the benefits of any gain from market price changes with respect to all such shares held by him/her in the
Plan, or otherwise. 
  

	18.	Limitations on Participation. 

 Participants under the Plan who are deemed to be subject
to the reporting and liability provisions of Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (“Executive Officers”) shall be subject to the following
additional provisions: 
 a. Common Stock purchased under the Plan shall be held for a minimum of
six-months following the date of such purchase under the Plan. 

  
 5 

 b. Such Executive Officers who suspend monthly Participant contributions under the Plan may not
commence future participation under the Plan for at least six-months from the date of such cessation of participation. 

Such additional limitations related to participation by Executive Officers shall not be effective with respect to distributions made in
connection with death, retirement, disability or termination of employment. Transactions of Common Stock under the Plan shall be reportable by Executive Officers of the Company on Form 3, 4 or 5. 

 

	19.	Duties of the Company. 

 a. The Company shall indemnify the Plan Administrator, including
reimbursement for reasonable attorneys fees and related expenses, against any liability to any Participant or Plan beneficiary for any actions taken by the Plan Administrator pursuant to the Plan and/or the Custodial Agreement, absent a finding of
gross negligence by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 b. The Company shall deliver Participant contributions received to the Plan
Administrator in a timely manner. 
 c. The Plan Administrator shall be solely responsible for distribution of all necessary regulatory
reports and filings related to administration of the Plan, including the timely distribution of IRS Form 1099-Div, as may be required.

 The Company may submit the Plan for approval by the
stockholders of the Company if it is deemed necessary or appropriate. 
  

	21.	Transferability. 

 No Option may be transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated
(whether by operation of law or otherwise), and no Option shall be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. Any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of an Option, or levy of attachment or similar

 Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no Participant
shall be granted an Option under the Plan which permits his or her rights to purchase stock under the Plan at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time of the grant of such Option) for each calendar year
in which such Option is outstanding at any time. Any Option granted under the Plan shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to satisfy this Section. 
  

	25.	Miscellaneous. 

 a. Legal and Other Requirements. The obligations of the Company to sell

necessary or appropriate by the Company.

Participant to exercise such Option; except, however, the decision by a Participant to withdraw from the Plan and not exercise any Options granted must comply with Section 9, herein. 

c. Right to Terminate Service. Nothing in the Plan or any agreement entered into pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon any Participant the
right to continue in the employment or service of the Company or any subsidiary or affect any right which the Company or any subsidiary may have to terminate the employment of such Participant. 

d. Rights as a Shareholder. No Participant shall have any right as a shareholder unless and until certificates for shares of Common Stock are

number of shares of Common Stock available for future grant as Options pursuant to Section 6 shall not exceed 50,000 shares, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 22 hereof. Shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan may be
authorized but unissued shares, shares now or hereafter held in the treasury of the Company or shares purchased on the open market. In the event that any Options granted under Section 6 expire unexercised, or are terminated, surrendered or
canceled without being exercised, in whole or in part, for any reason, the number of shares of Common Stock theretofore subject to such Option shall again be available for grant as an Option and shall not reduce the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock available for grant as such Options under the Plan.
