Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants to Optionee, an option (the “Option”) to purchase from the
Company Four Million Two Hundred Thousand (4,200,000) shares of its common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common
Stock”) for a period ending seven (7) years from the date hereof. The number, type of security and Exercise Price (as defined

2.                 
Exercise Price. The exercise price per share at which this Option may be exercised shall equal $0.43 per share of Common
Stock (the “Exercise Price”), as adjusted pursuant to Section 12 hereof if applicable.

 

3.                 
Exercise of Option.

 

(a)  
Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Option are only exercisable by Optionee, at the option of Optionee at
any time, by the surrender of this Agreement and the Notice of Exercise annexed hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of Optionee
(the “Notice of Exercise”) at the address of the Company (or such other address or agency of the Company as
it may designate by notice in writing to Optionee at the address of Optionee hereunder), upon payment in cash, by cashier’s check
acceptable to the Company, or by wire transfer of immediately funds in the amount of the full Exercise Price of the shares of Common
Stock to be purchased.

 

(b)  
Effective Date of Exercise. This Option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business
on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above, and the person entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon
such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on such date. As promptly
as practicable on or after such date, the Company at its expense shall cause the Company to issue and deliver to the person or persons
entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number of shares issuable upon such exercise.

 

4.                 
No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of capital stock shall be issued upon the exercise of this Option. If any fractional
interest in a share would, except for the provision of this Section 4, be delivered upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivery
of a fractional share thereof, shall pay to Optionee an amount in cash equal to the current market price of such fractional share.

 

5.                 
Rights of Stockholder. Nothing contained in this Option shall be construed as conferring upon the Optionee hereof the right
to vote or to consent or to receive notice as a stockholder of the Comapny or any other matters or any rights whatsoever as a stockholder
of the Company. No dividends or interest shall be payable or accrued in respect of this Option or the interest represented hereby or

6.                
Option Not Transferable. This Option and the rights hereunder are not transferable and/or assignable, in whole or in part,
by Optionee; provided, however, that Optionee may assign this Option and the rights hereunder to one or more of its affiliates.

 

7.                 
Compliance with Securities Laws.

 

(a)              
Optionee acknowledges that this Option and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are being acquired solely
for Optionee’s own account and not as a nominee for any other party, and for investment, and that Optionee will not offer, sell,
or otherwise dispose of this Option or any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof or conversion thereof except under
circumstances that will not result in a violation of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), or any state securities
laws. Upon exercise of this Option, Optionee shall, if reasonably requested by the Company, confirm in writing, in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Company, that the shares of Common Stock so purchased are being acquired solely for Optionee’s own account
and not as a nominee for any other party, for investment, and not with a view toward distribution or resale.

 

(b)              
Optionee further acknowledges that it is familiar with the definition of “accredited investor” in Rule 501 of Regulation
D promulgated under the Act and certifies that Optionee is an accredited investor as defined in such rule.

 

(c)              
Optionee understands that neither this Option nor the Common Stock have been registered under the Act, and therefore they may
not be sold, assigned or transferred unless (i) a registration statement under the Act is in effect with respect thereto or (ii) an exemption
from registration is found to be available to the satisfaction of the Company.

 

(d)              
Optionee further acknowledges and agrees that the stock certificates evidencing the Common Stock shall bear a restrictive legend,
substantially in the following form (in addition to such other restrictive legends as are required or deemed advisable under the provisions
of this Option and any applicable law or any other agreement to which Optionee is a party):

 

“THE
SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS
OF ANY STATE, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS AND UNTIL REGISTERED UNDER SUCH ACT AND/OR APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE, REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY
AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.”

 

8.                 
Notice of Certain Events. Whenever the Exercise Price, type or number of shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted
pursuant to Section 12 hereof, the Company shall, within ten (10) days of such adjustment event, issue a certificate setting forth in
reasonable detail the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated

This Option is, and any Option issued in substitution for or replacement of this Option shall be, upon issuance, duly authorized,
validly issued and fully vested; and

 

(b)              
All shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Option pursuant to the terms hereof
shall be, upon issuance, and the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that such shares of
Common Stock are, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, issued without violation of any preemptive or similar rights of any
stockholder of the Company and free and clear of all taxes, liens and charges.

 

10.             
Amendments; Waivers.

 

(a)              
The provisions of this Agreement may be amended (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively),
only by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and Optionee.

 

(b)              
No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition or provision of this Option, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed
to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition or provision.

 

11.             
Lock-Up Agreement. The Optionee agrees, in connection with the Company’s initial public offering of the Company’s
securities, upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, not
to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of this Option or any of the Common
Stock or other Company securities issuable upon exercise of this Option or upon conversion of any Common Stock (other than those included
in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time
(not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the underwriters; provided
however that such 180 day period may be extended to the extent necessary to permit any managing underwriter to comply with NASD Rule
2711(f)(4). The holder of this Option acknowledges that the Company will be caused to be placed on any securities issued directly or
indirectly upon exercise this Option the following legend:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED

AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDER OF THESE SECURITIES, A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ISSUER. SUCH LOCKUP PERIOD

12.             
Adjustments. The Company has 450 million shares of Common Stock authorized and has 70 million shares of Common Stock issued
and outstanding. The Exercise Price and the number and type of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment from time to time
as follows:

 

(a)              
If, while this Option remains outstanding and unexpired, the Company shall, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, change
any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Option exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other
class or classes, this Option shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable
as the result of such change with respect to the securities which were subject to the purchase rights under this Option immediately prior
to such reclassification or other change and the Exercise Price therefor shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment
as provided in this Section 12.

 

(b)              
If, while this Option remains outstanding and unexpired, the Company shall split, subdivide or combine the securities as to which
purchase rights under this Option exist into a different number of securities of the same class, the Exercise Price for such securities
shall be proportionately decreased in the case of a split or subdivision or proportionately increased in the case of a combination. Upon
an adjustment in the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 12(b), the number of shares subject to this Option (which were the subject
of such split, subdivision or combination) shall be adjusted accordingly such that the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchase
of such shares shall remain the same as before such split, subdivision or combination.

 

13.             
Headings. The descriptive headings of the several sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience
only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

 

14.             
Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws
of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or
any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Delaware. With
respect to any disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Company and the Optionee consent to the exclusive jurisdiction
of the federal or state courts located in the State of Delaware.

 

15.             
Notices. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when
delivered personally, (b) on the date sent by email if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next business day
if sent after normal business hours of the recipient or (c) 48 hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or registered

of its Holder terminate, any Shares subject to such Award shall again be available for the grant of a new Award. Notwithstanding any

Awards made under the Plan may be granted solely to individuals who, at the time of grant, are Employees, Directors or Consultants. An
Award may be granted on more than one occasion to the same Employee, Director or Consultant, and, subject to the limitations set forth
in the Plan, such Award may include, a Non-qualified Stock Option, a Restricted Stock Award, a Restricted Stock Unit Award, an Unrestricted
Stock Award, a Distribution Equivalent Right Award, a Performance Stock Award, a Performance Unit Award, a Stock Appreciation Right,
a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right, or any combination thereof, and solely for Employees, an Incentive Stock Option.

 

6.2            Termination
of Service. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement and/or the provisions of Section 6.3
or 6.4, the following terms and conditions shall apply with respect to a Holder’s Termination of Service with the Company or an
Affiliate, as applicable:

 

(a)            The
Holder’s rights, if any, to exercise any then exercisable Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall terminate:

 

(i)            If
such termination is for a reason other than the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability or death, ninety (90) days after the date
of such Termination of Service;

 

(ii)            If
such termination is on account of the Holder’s Total and Permanent Disability, one (1) year after the date of such Termination
of Service; or

 

(iii)            If
such termination is on account of the Holder’s death, one (1) year after the date of the Holder’s death.

 

Upon such applicable date the Holder (and such
Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in or with respect
to any such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide
for a different time period in the Award Agreement, or may extend the time period, following a Termination of Service, during which the
Holder has the right to exercise any vested Non-qualified Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, which time period may not extend
beyond the expiration date of the Award term.

(b)            In
the event of a Holder’s Termination of Service for any reason prior to the actual or deemed satisfaction and/or lapse of the Restrictions,
vesting requirements, terms and conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award and/or Restricted Stock Unit Award, such Restricted
Stock and/or RSUs shall immediately be canceled, and the Holder (and such Holder’s estate, designated beneficiary or other legal
representative) shall forfeit any rights or interests in and with respect to any such Restricted Stock and/or RSUs.

 

6.3            Special
Termination Rule. Except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Article VI, if a Holder’s employment with, or status as a Director of, the Company or an
Affiliate shall terminate, and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder shall become a Consultant, such Holder’s
rights with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to
the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such Holder had been a Consultant for the entire period during which
such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding. Should the Committee effect such determination with respect to such Holder, for all
purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not be treated as if his or her employment or Director status had terminated until such time
as his or her Consultant status shall terminate, in which case his or her Award, as it may have been reduced in connection with the Holder’s
becoming a Consultant, shall be treated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.2, provided, however, that any such Award which
is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall, upon the Holder’s no longer being an Employee, automatically convert to a Non-qualified
Stock Option. Should a Holder’s status as a Consultant terminate, and if, within ninety (90) days of such termination, such Holder
shall become an Employee or a Director, such Holder’s rights with respect to any Award or portion thereof granted thereto prior
to the date of such termination may be preserved, if and to the extent determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, as if such
Holder had been an Employee or a Director, as applicable, for the entire period during which such Award or portion thereof had been outstanding,
and, should the Committee effect such determination with respect to such Holder, for all purposes of the Plan, such Holder shall not
be treated as if his or her Consultant status had terminated until such time as his or her employment with the Company or an Affiliate,
or his or her Director status, as applicable, shall terminate, in which case his or her Award shall be treated pursuant to the provisions
of Section 6.2.

 

6.4            Termination
of Service for Cause. Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI or elsewhere in the Plan to the contrary, and unless a Holder’s
Award Agreement specifically provides otherwise, in the event of a Holder’s Termination of Service for Cause, all of such Holder’s
then outstanding Awards shall expire immediately and be forfeited in their entirety upon such Termination of Service.

Article VII

OPTIONS

 

7.1            Option
Period. The term of each Option shall be as specified in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that except as set
forth in Section 7.3, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of its grant.

 

7.2            Limitations
on Exercise of Option. An Option shall be exercisable in whole or in such installments and at such times as specified in the Option
Agreement

 

7.3            Special
Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the respective
Incentive Stock Option is granted) of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an individual
during any calendar year under all plans of the Company and any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation thereof (both as defined
in Section 424 of the Code) which provide for the grant of Incentive Stock Options exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000)
(or such other individual limit as may be in effect under the Code on the date of grant), the portion of such Incentive Stock Options
that exceeds such threshold shall be treated as Non-qualified Stock Options. The Committee shall determine, in accordance with applicable
provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations and other administrative pronouncements, which of a Holder’s Options, which were intended
by the Committee to be Incentive Stock Options when granted to the Holder, will not constitute Incentive Stock Options because of such
limitation, and shall notify the Holder of such determination as soon as practicable after such determination. No Incentive Stock Option
shall be granted to an Employee if, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, such Employee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, unless
(i) at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted the Option price is at least one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market
Value of the Shares subject to the Incentive Stock Option, and (ii) such Incentive Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable
after the expiration of five (5) years from the date of grant. No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted more than ten (10) years
from the earlier of the Effective Date or date on which the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders. The designation by
the Committee of an Option as an Incentive Stock Option shall not guarantee the Holder that the Option will satisfy the applicable requirements
for “incentive stock option” status under Section 422 of the Code.

 

7.4            Option
Agreement. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Option Agreement in such form and containing such provisions not inconsistent with
the other provisions of the Plan as the Committee from time to time shall approve, including, but not limited to, provisions intended
to qualify an Option as an Incentive Stock Option. An Option Agreement may provide for the payment of the Option price, in whole or in
part, by the delivery of a number of Shares (plus cash if necessary) that have been owned by the Holder for at least six (6) months
and having a Fair Market Value equal to such Option price, or such other forms or methods as the Committee may determine from time to
time, in each case, subject to such rules and regulations as may be adopted by the Committee. Each Option Agreement shall, solely
to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4, as applicable, specify the effect of Termination of Service
on the exercisability of the Option. Moreover, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Non-qualified Stock Option Agreement
may provide for a “cashless exercise” of the Option, in whole or in part, by (a) establishing procedures whereby the
Holder, by a properly-executed written notice, directs (i) an immediate market sale or margin loan as to all or a part of Shares
to which he is entitled to receive upon exercise of the Option, pursuant to an extension of credit by the Company to the Holder of the
Option price, (ii) the delivery of the Shares from the Company directly to a brokerage firm and (iii) the delivery of the Option
price from sale or margin loan proceeds from the brokerage firm directly to the Company, or (b) reducing the number of Shares to
be issued upon exercise of the Option by the number of such Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Option price (or
portion thereof to be so paid) as of the date of the Option’s exercise. An Option Agreement may also include provisions relating
to: (i) subject to the provisions hereof, accelerated vesting of Options, including but not limited to, upon the occurrence of a
Change of Control, (ii) tax matters (including provisions covering any applicable Employee wage withholding requirements) and (iii) any
other matters not inconsistent with the terms and provisions of the Plan that the Committee shall in its sole discretion determine. The
terms and conditions of the respective Option Agreements need not be identical.

 

    11 

     

    

 

Phoenix Motor, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity
Incentive Plan

 

7.5            Option
Price and Payment. The price at which an Share may be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be determined by the Committee;
provided, however, that such Option price (i) shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of an Share on the date
such Option is granted (or 110% of Fair Market Value for an Incentive Stock Option held by Ten Percent Stockholder, as provided in Section 7.3),
and (ii) shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Article XV. The Option or portion thereof may be exercised by delivery
of an irrevocable notice of exercise to the Company. The Option price for the Option or portion thereof shall be paid in full in the
manner prescribed by the Committee as set forth in the Plan and the applicable Option Agreement, which manner, with the consent of the
Committee, may include the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable in connection with the exercise of the Option. Separate share certificates
shall be issued by the Company for those Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option and for those Shares acquired
pursuant to the exercise of a Non-qualified Stock Option.

 

7.6            Stockholder
Rights and Privileges. The Holder of an Option shall be entitled to all the privileges and rights of a stockholder of the Company
solely with respect to such Shares as have been purchased under the Option and for which share certificates have been registered in the
Holder’s name.

 

7.7            Options
and Rights in Substitution for Stock or Options Granted by Other Corporations. Options may be granted under the Plan from time to
time in substitution for stock options held by individuals employed by entities who become Employees, Directors or Consultants as a result
of a merger or consolidation of the employing entity with the Company or any Affiliate, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate
of the assets of the employing entity, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of stock or shares of the employing entity with
the result that such employing entity becomes an Affiliate. Any substitute Awards granted under this Plan shall not reduce the number
of Shares authorized for grant under the Plan.

7.8     Prohibition
Against RePricing. Except to the extent (i) approved in advance by holders of a majority of the shares of the Company entitled
to vote generally in the election of directors, or (ii) as a result of any Change of Control or any adjustment as provided in Article XV,
the Committee shall not have the power or authority to reduce, whether through amendment or otherwise, the exercise price under any outstanding
Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or to grant any new Award or make any payment of cash in substitution for or upon the cancellation
of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights previously granted.

 

Article VIII

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

8.1            Award.
A Restricted Stock Award shall constitute an Award of Shares to the Holder as of the date of the Award which are subject to a “substantial
risk of forfeiture” as defined under Section 83 of the Code during the specified Restriction Period. At the time a Restricted
Stock Award is made, the Committee shall establish the Restriction Period applicable to such Award. Each Restricted Stock Award may have
a different Restriction Period, in the discretion of the Committee. The Restriction Period applicable to a particular Restricted Stock
Award shall not be changed except as permitted by Section 8.2.

 

8.2            Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article VIII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Restricted
Stock Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.
The Company shall cause the Shares to be issued in the name of Holder, either by book-entry registration or issuance of one or more stock
certificates evidencing the Shares, which Shares or certificates shall be held by the Company or the stock transfer agent or brokerage
service selected by the Company to provide services for the Plan. The Shares shall be restricted from transfer and shall be subject to
an appropriate stop-transfer order, and if any certificate is issued, such certificate shall bear an appropriate legend referring to
the restrictions applicable to the Shares. After any Shares vest, the Company shall deliver the vested Shares, in book-entry or certificated
form in the Company’s sole discretion, registered in the name of Holder or his or her legal representatives, beneficiaries or heirs,
as the case may be, less any Shares withheld to pay withholding taxes. If provided for under the Restricted Stock Agreement, the Holder
shall have the right to vote Shares subject thereto and to enjoy all other stockholder rights, including the entitlement to receive dividends
on the Shares during the Restriction Period. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional
terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Stock Awards, including, but not limited to, rules pertaining to the
effect of Termination of Service prior to expiration of the Restriction Period. Such additional terms, conditions or restrictions shall,
to the extent inconsistent with the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4, as applicable, be set forth in a Restricted Stock Agreement
made in conjunction with the Award. Such Restricted Stock Agreement may also include provisions relating to: (i) subject to the
provisions hereof, accelerated vesting of Awards, including but not limited to accelerated vesting upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control, (ii) tax matters (including provisions covering any applicable Employee wage withholding requirements) and (iii) any
other matters not inconsistent with the terms and provisions of the Plan that the Committee shall in its sole discretion determine. The
terms and conditions of the respective Restricted Stock Agreements need not be identical. All Shares delivered to a Holder as part of
a Restricted Stock Award shall be delivered and reported by the Company or the Affiliate, as applicable, to the Holder at the time of
vesting.

 

8.3            Payment
for Restricted Stock. The Committee shall determine the amount and form of any payment from a Holder for Shares received pursuant
to a Restricted Stock Award, if any, provided that in the absence of such a determination, a Holder shall not be required to make any
payment for Shares received pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award, except to the extent otherwise required by law.

Article IX

UNRESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

9.1            Award.
Shares may be awarded (or sold) to Employees, Directors or Consultants under the Plan which are not subject to Restrictions of any kind,

9.2            Terms

10.1          Award.
A Restricted Stock Unit Award shall constitute a promise to grant Shares (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of Shares) to the Holder
at the end of a specified vesting schedule. At the time a Restricted Stock Unit Award is made, the Committee shall establish the vesting
schedule applicable to such Award. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award may have a different vesting schedule, in the discretion of the Committee.
A Restricted Stock Unit shall not constitute an equity interest in the Company and shall not entitle the Holder to voting rights, dividends
or any other rights associated with ownership of Shares prior to the time the Holder shall receive a distribution of Shares pursuant
to Section 10.3.

 

    14

     

    

 

Phoenix Motor, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

 

10.2          Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article X, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Restricted
Stock Unit Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to
be appropriate. The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall set forth the individual service-based vesting requirement which the Holder
would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become entitled to distribution pursuant to Section 10.3 and the number of
Units awarded to the Holder. Such conditions shall be sufficient to constitute a “substantial risk of forfeiture” as such
term is defined under Section 409A of the Code. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe
additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Restricted Stock Unit Awards in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, including,
but not limited to, rules pertaining to the effect of Termination of Service prior to expiration of the applicable vesting period.
The terms and conditions of the respective Restricted Stock Unit Agreements need not be identical.

 

10.3          Distributions
of Shares. The Holder of a Restricted Stock Unit shall be entitled to receive Shares or a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value
of a Share, or one Share, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee and as set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement,
for each Restricted Stock Unit subject to such Restricted Stock Unit Award, if the Holder satisfies the applicable vesting requirement.
Such distribution shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month next
following the end of the calendar year in which the Restricted Stock Unit first becomes vested (i.e., no longer subject to a “substantial
risk of forfeiture”).

 

Article XI

PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARDS

 

11.1          Award.
A Performance Unit Award shall constitute an Award under which, upon the satisfaction of predetermined individual and/or Company (and/or
Affiliate) Performance Goals based on selected Performance Criteria, a cash payment shall be made to the Holder, based on the number
of Units awarded to the Holder. At the time a Performance Unit Award is made, the Committee shall establish the Performance Period and
applicable Performance Goals. Each Performance Unit Award may have different Performance Goals, in the discretion of the Committee. A
Performance Unit Award shall not constitute an equity interest in the Company and shall not entitle the Holder to voting rights, dividends
or any other rights associated with ownership of Shares.

 

11.2          Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XI, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Performance
Unit Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.
The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Performance Unit Agreement the Performance Period, Performance Criteria and Performance
Goals which the Holder and/or the Company would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become entitled to payment pursuant to
Section 11.3, the number of Units awarded to the Holder and the dollar value or formula assigned to each such Unit. Such payment
shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A of the Code. At the time of such Award, the
Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Performance Unit Awards,
including, but not limited to, rules pertaining to the effect of Termination of Service prior to expiration of the applicable performance
period. The terms and conditions of the respective Performance Unit Agreements need not be identical.

11.3          Payments.
The Holder of a Performance Unit shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the dollar value assigned to such Unit under the
applicable Performance Unit Agreement if the Holder and/or the Company satisfy (or partially satisfy, if applicable under the applicable
Performance Unit Agreement) the Performance Goals set forth in such Performance Unit Agreement. All payments shall be made no later than
by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal
year to which such performance goals and objectives relate.

 

Article XII

PERFORMANCE STOCK AWARDS

 

12.1          Award.
A Performance Stock Award shall constitute a promise to grant Shares (or cash equal to the Fair Market Value of Shares) to the Holder
at the end of a specified Performance Period subject to achievement of specified Performance Goals. At the time a Performance Stock Award
is made, the Committee shall establish the Performance Period and applicable Performance Goals based on selected Performance Criteria.
Each Performance Stock Award may have different Performance Goals, in the discretion of the Committee. A Performance Stock Award shall
not constitute an equity interest in the Company and shall not entitle the Holder to voting rights, dividends or any other rights associated
with ownership of Shares unless and until the Holder shall receive a distribution of Shares pursuant to Section 12.3.

 

12.2          Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Performance
Stock Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.
The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Performance Stock Agreement the Performance Period, selected Performance Criteria and
Performance Goals which the Holder and/or the Company would be required to satisfy before the Holder would become entitled to the receipt
of Shares pursuant to such Holder’s Performance Stock Award and the number of Shares subject to such Performance Stock Award. Such
distribution shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A of the Code. If such Performance
Goals are achieved, the distribution of Shares (or the payment of cash, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee), shall
be made in accordance with Section 12.3, below. At the time of such Award, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe
additional terms and conditions or restrictions relating to Performance Stock Awards, including, but not limited to, rules pertaining
to the effect of the Holder’s Termination of Service prior to the expiration of the applicable performance period. The terms and
conditions of the respective Performance Stock Agreements need not be identical.

 

12.3          Distributions
of Shares. The Holder of a Performance Stock Award shall be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the Fair Market Value of
a Share, or one Share, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, for each Performance Stock Award subject to such Performance
Stock Agreement, if the Holder satisfies the applicable vesting requirement. Such distribution shall be made no later than by the fifteenth
(15th) day of the third (3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year to which
such performance goals and objectives relate.

Article XIII

DISTRIBUTION EQUIVALENT RIGHTS

 

13.1          Award.
A Distribution Equivalent Right shall entitle the Holder to receive bookkeeping credits, cash payments and/or Share distributions equal
in amount to the distributions that would have been made to the Holder had the Holder held a specified number of Shares during the specified
period of the Award.

 

13.2          Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XIII, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Distribution
Equivalent Rights Award Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may
determine to be appropriate. The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement the terms
and conditions, if any, including whether the Holder is to receive credits currently in cash, is to have such credits reinvested (at
Fair Market Value determined as of the date of reinvestment) in additional Shares or is to be entitled to choose among such alternatives.
Such receipt shall be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A of the Code and, if such Award
becomes vested, the distribution of such cash or Shares shall be made no later than by the fifteenth (15th) day of the third
(3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which the Holder’s interest in the
Award vests. Distribution Equivalent Rights Awards may be settled in cash or in Shares, as set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent
Rights Award Agreement. A Distribution Equivalent Rights Award may, but need not be, awarded in tandem with another Award (other than
an Option or a SAR), whereby, if so awarded, such Distribution Equivalent Rights Award shall expire, terminate or be forfeited by the
Holder, as applicable, under the same conditions as under such other Award.

 

13.3          Interest
Equivalents. The Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement for a Distribution Equivalent Rights Award may provide for the crediting
of interest on a Distribution Rights Award to be settled in cash at a future date (but in no event later than by the fifteenth (15th)
day of the third (3rd) calendar month next following the end of the Company’s fiscal year in which such interest is
credited and vested), at a rate set forth in the applicable Distribution Equivalent Rights Award Agreement, on the amount of cash payable
thereunder.

Article XIV

STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

 

14.1          Award.
A Stock Appreciation Right shall constitute a right, granted alone or in connection with a related Option, to receive a payment equal
to the increase in value of a specified number of Shares between the date of Award and the date of exercise.

 

14.2          Terms
and Conditions. At the time any Award is made under this Article XIV, the Company and the Holder shall enter into a Stock Appreciation
Right Agreement setting forth each of the matters contemplated thereby and such other matters as the Committee may determine to be appropriate.
The Committee shall set forth in the applicable Stock Appreciation Right Agreement the terms and conditions of the Stock Appreciation
Right, including (i) the base value (the “Base Value”) for the Stock Appreciation Right, which shall be not less
than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right, (ii) the number of Shares subject to
the Stock Appreciation Right, (iii) the period during which the Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised; provided, however,
that no Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date of its grant, and (iv) any
other special rules and/or requirements which the Committee imposes upon the Stock Appreciation Right. Upon the exercise of some
or all of the portion of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Holder shall receive a payment from the Company, in cash or in the form of Shares
having an equivalent Fair Market Value or in a combination of both, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, equal to the
product of:

 

(a)            The
excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise, over (ii) the Base Value, multiplied by,

 

(b)            The
number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

 

14.3            Tandem
Stock Appreciation Rights. If the Committee grants a Stock Appreciation Right which is intended to be a Tandem Stock Appreciation
Right, the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be granted at the same time as the related Option, and the following special rules shall
apply:

 

(a)            The
Base Value shall be equal to or greater than the per Share exercise price under the related Option;

 

(b)            The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised for all or part of the Shares which are subject to the related Option, but solely upon
the surrender by the Holder of the Holder’s right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option (and when a Share is
purchased under the related Option, an equivalent portion of the related Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall be canceled);

 

(c)            The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall expire no later than the date of the expiration of the related Option;

 

    18

     

    

 

Phoenix Motor, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

 

(d)            The
value of the payment with respect to the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be no more than one hundred percent (100%) of the difference
between the per Share exercise price under the related Option and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the related Option at
the time the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, multiplied by the number of the Shares with respect to which the Tandem Stock
Appreciation Right is exercised; and

 

(e)            The
Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised solely when the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the related Option exceeds
the per Share exercise price under the related Option.

 

Article XV

RECAPITALIZATION OR REORGANIZATION

 

15.1          Adjustments
to Shares. The shares with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan are Shares as presently constituted; provided,
however, that if, and whenever, prior to the expiration or distribution to the Holder of Shares underlying an Award theretofore
granted, the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of the Shares or the payment of an Share dividend on Shares without
receipt of consideration by the Company, the number of Shares with respect to which such Award may thereafter be exercised or satisfied,
as applicable, (i) in the event of an increase in the number of outstanding Shares, shall be proportionately increased, and the
purchase price per Share shall be proportionately reduced, and (ii) in the event of a reduction in the number of outstanding Shares,
shall be proportionately reduced, and the purchase price per Share shall be proportionately increased. Notwithstanding the foregoing
or any other provision of this Article XV, any adjustment made with respect to an Award (x) which is an Incentive Stock Option,
shall comply with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code, and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would
render any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan to be other than an “incentive stock option” for purposes of Section 422
of the Code, and (y) which is a Non-qualified Stock Option, shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code,
and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Non-qualified Stock Option granted under the Plan to become subject
to Section 409A of the Code.

 

15.2          Recapitalization.
If the Company recapitalizes or otherwise changes its capital structure, thereafter upon any exercise or satisfaction, as applicable,
of a previously granted Award, the Holder shall be entitled to receive (or entitled to purchase, if applicable) under such Award, in
lieu of the number of Shares then covered by such Award, the number and class of shares and securities to which the Holder would have
been entitled pursuant to the terms of the recapitalization if, immediately prior to such recapitalization, the Holder had been the holder
of record of the number of Shares then covered by such Award.

 

15.3          Other
Events. In the event of changes to the outstanding Shares by reason of an extraordinary cash dividend, reorganization, merger, consolidation,
combination, split-up, spin-off, exchange or other relevant change in capitalization occurring after the date of the grant of any Award
and not otherwise provided for under this Article XV, any outstanding Awards and any Award Agreements evidencing such Awards shall
be adjusted by the Board in its discretion in such manner as the Board shall deem equitable or appropriate taking into consideration
the applicable accounting and tax consequences, as to the number and price of Shares or other consideration subject to such Awards. In
the event of any adjustment pursuant to Sections 15.1, 15.2 or this Section 15.3, the aggregate number of Shares available under
the Plan pursuant to Section 5.1 may be appropriately adjusted by the Board, the determination of which shall be conclusive. In
addition, the Committee may make provision for a cash payment to a Holder or a person who has an outstanding Award.

 

    19

     

    

 

Phoenix Motor, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

 

15.4          Change
of Control. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, at the time an Award is made or at any time prior to, coincident with or after
the time of a Change of Control, cause any Award either (i) to be canceled in consideration of a payment in cash or other consideration
in amount per share equal to the excess, if any, of the price or implied price per Share in the Change of Control over the per Share
exercise, base or purchase price of such Award, which may be paid immediately or over the vesting schedule of the Award; (ii) to
be assumed, or new rights substituted therefore, by the surviving corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such surviving corporation
following such Change of Control; (iii) accelerate any time periods, or waive any other conditions, relating to the vesting, exercise,
payment or distribution of an Award so that any Award to a Holder whose employment has been terminated as a result of a Change of Control
may be vested, exercised, paid or distributed in full on or before a date fixed by the Committee; (iv) to be purchased from a Holder
whose employment has been terminated as a result of a Change of Control, upon the Holder’s request, for an amount of cash equal
to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise, payment or distribution of such rights had such Award been currently exercisable
or payable; or (v) terminate any then outstanding Award or make any other adjustment to the Awards then outstanding as the Committee
deems necessary or appropriate to reflect such transaction or change. The number of Shares subject to any Award shall be rounded to the
nearest whole number.

 

15.5          Powers
Not Affected. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Board
or of the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change of the Company’s
capital structure or business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting
Shares or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all
or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate act or proceeding.

 

15.6          No
Adjustment for Certain Awards. Except as hereinabove expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of any class or securities
convertible into shares of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants
to subscribe therefor or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible into such shares or other securities, and
in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect previously granted Awards, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made
with respect to the number of Shares subject to Awards theretofore granted or the purchase price per Share, if applicable.

Article XVI

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN

 

The Plan shall continue in effect, unless sooner
terminated pursuant to this Article XVI, until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date on which it is adopted by the
Board (except as to Awards outstanding on that date). The Board in its discretion may terminate the Plan at any time with respect to
any shares for which Awards have not theretofore been granted; provided, however, that the Plan’s termination shall
not materially and adversely impair the rights of a Holder with respect to any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the Holder.
The Board shall have the right to alter or amend the Plan or any part hereof from time to time; provided, however, that
without the approval by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum representing a majority of the shares
of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is present in person or by proxy, no amendment or modification
of the Plan may (i) materially increase the benefits accruing to Holders, (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided in Article XV,
materially increase the number of Shares subject to the Plan or the individual Award Agreements specified in Article V, (iii) materially
modify the requirements for participation in the Plan, or (iv) amend, modify or suspend Section 7.7 (re-pricing prohibitions)
or this Article XVI. In addition, no change in any Award theretofore granted may be made which would materially and adversely impair
the rights of a Holder with respect to such Award without the consent of the Holder (unless such change is required in order to exempt
the Plan or any Award from Section 409A of the Code).

 

Article XVII

MISCELLANEOUS

 

17.1          No
Right to Award. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Company nor any action of the Board or the Committee shall be deemed to give
an Employee, Director or Consultant any right to an Award except as may be evidenced by an Award Agreement duly executed on behalf of
the Company, and then solely to the extent and on the terms and conditions expressly set forth therein.

 

17.2          No
Rights Conferred. Nothing contained in the Plan shall (i) confer upon any Employee any right with respect to continuation of
employment with the Company or any Affiliate, (ii) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate
the employment of an Employee at any time, (iii) confer upon any Director any right with respect to continuation of such Director’s
membership on the Board, (iv) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Director’s
membership on the Board at any time, (v) confer upon any Consultant any right with respect to continuation of his or her consulting
engagement with the Company or any Affiliate, or (vi) interfere in any way with any right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate
a Consultant’s consulting engagement with the Company or an Affiliate at any time.

17.3          Other
Laws; No Fractional Shares; Withholding. The Company shall not be obligated by virtue of any provision of the Plan to recognize the
exercise of any Award or to otherwise sell or issue Shares in violation of any laws, rules or regulations, and any postponement
of the exercise or settlement of any Award under this provision shall not extend the term of such Award. Neither the Company nor its
directors or officers shall have any obligation or liability to a Holder with respect to any Award (or Shares issuable thereunder) (i) that
shall lapse because of such postponement, or (ii) for any failure to comply with the requirements of any applicable law, rules or
regulations, including but not limited to any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of this Code. No fractional
Shares shall be delivered, nor shall any cash in lieu of fractional Shares be paid. The Company shall have the right to deduct in cash
(whether under this Plan or otherwise) in connection with all Awards any taxes required by law to be withheld and to require any payments
required to enable it to satisfy its withholding obligations. In the case of any Award satisfied in the form of Shares, no Shares shall
be issued unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Company shall have been made to satisfy any tax withholding obligations applicable
with respect to such Award. Subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may impose, the Company shall have the right to retain,
or the Committee may, subject to such terms and conditions as it may establish from time to time, permit Holders to elect to tender,
Shares (including Shares issuable in respect of an Award) to satisfy, in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld.

 

17.4          No
Restriction on Corporate Action. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any Affiliate from taking
any corporate action which is deemed by the Company or such Affiliate to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such
action would have an adverse effect on the Plan or any Award made under the Plan. No Employee, Director, Consultant, beneficiary or other
person shall have any claim against the Company or any Affiliate as a result of any such action.

 

17.5          Restrictions
on Transfer. No Award under the Plan or any Award Agreement and no rights or interests herein or therein, shall or may be assigned,
transferred, sold, exchanged, encumbered, pledged or otherwise hypothecated or disposed of by a Holder except (i) by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution, or (ii) where permitted under applicable tax rules, by gift to any Family Member of the Holder,
subject to compliance with applicable laws. An Award may be exercisable during the lifetime of the Holder only by such Holder or by the
Holder’s guardian or legal representative unless it has been transferred by gift to a Family Member of the Holder, in which case
it shall be exercisable solely by such transferee. Notwithstanding any such transfer, the Holder shall continue to be subject to the
withholding requirements provided for under Section 17.3 hereof.

 

17.6           Beneficiary
Designations. Each Holder may, from time to time, name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (who may be contingent or successive beneficiaries)
for purposes of receiving any amount which is payable in connection with an Award under the Plan upon or subsequent to the Holder’s
death. Each such beneficiary designation shall serve to revoke all prior beneficiary designations, be in a form prescribed by the Company
and be effective solely when filed by the Holder in writing with the Company during the Holder’s lifetime. In the absence of any
such written beneficiary designation, for purposes of the Plan, a Holder’s beneficiary shall be the Holder’s estate.

Phoenix

17.7          Rule 16b-3.
It is intended that the Plan and any Award made to a person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall meet all of the requirements
of Rule 16b-3. If any provision of the Plan or of any such Award would disqualify the Plan or such Award under, or would otherwise
not comply with the requirements of, Rule 16b-3, such provision or Award shall be construed or deemed to have been amended as necessary
to conform to the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

 

17.8          Clawback
Policy. Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any incentive “performance based” award, Awards under the Plan
shall be subject to reduction, forfeiture or repayment by reason of a correction or restatement of the Company’s financial information
if and to the extent such reduction or repayment is required by any applicable law.

 

17.9          No
Obligation to Notify or Minimize Taxes.  The Company shall have no duty or obligation to any Holder to advise such Holder as
to the time or manner of exercising any Award. Furthermore, the Company shall have no duty or obligation to warn or otherwise advise
such Holder of a pending termination or expiration of an Award or a possible period in which the Award may not be exercised.  The
Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences of an Award to any person.

 

17.10    
    Section 409A. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Plan, the Committee shall have no authority to issue an Award under the Plan with terms and/or conditions
which would cause such Award to constitute non-qualified “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code
unless such Award shall be structured to be exempt from or comply with all requirements of Code Section 409A. The Plan and all
Award Agreements are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or to be exempt therefrom) and shall
be so interpreted and construed and no amount shall be paid or distributed from the Plan unless and until such payment complies with
all requirements of Code Section 409A. If an Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, (i) distributions
shall only be made in a manner and upon an event permitted under Section 409A of the Code, (ii) payments to be made upon a
termination of employment or service shall only be made upon a “separation from service” under section 409A of the Code,
(iii) unless the Award specifies otherwise, each installment payment shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of
Section 409A of the Code, and (iv) in no event shall a Holder, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year
in which a distribution is made except in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Any Award that is subject to
Section 409A of the Code and that is to be distributed to a Key Employee (as defined below) upon separation from service shall
be administered so that any distribution with respect to such Award shall be postponed for six months following the date of the
Holder’s separation from service (unless an earlier death), if required by Section 409A. The determination of Key
Employees, including the number and identity of persons considered Key Employees and the identification date, shall be made by the
Committee or its delegate each year in accordance with section 416(i) of the Code and the “specified employee”
requirements of Section 409A of the Code. It is the intent of the Company that the provisions of
this Plan and all other plans and programs sponsored by the Company be interpreted to comply in all respects with Code
Section 409A, however, the Company shall have no liability to the Holder, or any successor or beneficiary thereof, in the event
taxes, penalties or excise taxes may ultimately be determined to be applicable to any payment or benefit received by the Holder or
any successor or beneficiary thereof.

Phoenix
Motor, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

 

17.11        Indemnification.
Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company
against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred thereby in connection with or
resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which such person may be made a party or may be involved by reason of any action
taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid thereby in settlement thereof, with the Company’s
approval, or paid thereby in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against such person; provided,
however, that such person shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or
she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive and shall
be independent of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation
or By-laws, by contract, as a matter of law, or otherwise.

 

17.12        Other
Benefit Plans. No Award, payment or amount received hereunder shall be taken into account in computing an Employee’s salary
or compensation for the purposes of determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, life insurance or other benefit plan of the
Company or any Affiliate, unless such other plan specifically provides for the inclusion of such Award, payment or amount received. Nothing
in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company to establish other plans or to pay compensation to its employees, in
cash or property, in a manner which is not expressly authorized under the Plan.

 

17.13        Limits
of Liability. Any liability of the Company with respect to an Award shall be based solely upon the contractual obligations created
under the Plan and the Award Agreement. None of the Company, any member of the Board nor any member of the Committee shall have any liability
to any party for any action taken or not taken, in good faith, in connection with or under the Plan.

 

17.14        Governing
Law. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
regard to principles of conflicts of law.

 

17.15        Subplans.
The Board may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable blue sky, securities
or tax laws of various jurisdictions. The Board shall establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the Plan setting forth (i) such
limitations on the Committee’s discretion under the Plan as the Board deems necessary or desirable and (ii) such additional
terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as the Board shall deem necessary or desirable. All supplements adopted
by the Board shall be deemed to be part of the Plan, but each supplement shall apply only to Holders within the affected jurisdiction
and the Company shall not be required to provide copies of any supplement to Holders in any jurisdiction that is not affected.

 

17.16        Severability
of Provisions. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provision of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such invalid or unenforceable provision had not been
included in the Plan.

 

17.17        No
Funding. The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to make any other
segregation of funds or assets to ensure the payment of any Award. Prior to receipt of Shares or a cash distribution pursuant to the
terms of an Award, such Award shall represent an unfunded unsecured contractual obligation of the Company and the Holder shall have no
greater claim to the Shares underlying such Award or any other assets of the Company or Affiliate than any other unsecured general creditor.

 

17.18        Headings.
Headings used throughout the Plan are for convenience only and shall not be given legal significance.
