Plan to violate the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion; provided that any exclusion in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) shall be applied in an identical manner under
each Offering Period to all employees of the Company or any Related Corporation, in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.423-2(e).

trading, or, if no closing sale price is quoted on such day, then the Fair Market Value shall be the closing sale price of the Class A Common Stock on The NASDAQ Stock Market or such exchange on the next preceding day on which a closing sale
price is reported. 

  
 3 

 (b) If the Class A Common Stock is not then listed or admitted for trading on The
NASDAQ Stock Market or a stock exchange which reports closing sale prices, the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the closing bid and asked prices of the Class A Common Stock in the over-the-counter market on the date of valuation. 
 (c) If neither (a) nor (b) is
applicable as of the date of valuation, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined by the Administrator in good faith using any reasonable method of evaluation in a manner consistent with the valuation principles under Section 409A of the
Code, which determination shall be conclusive and binding on all interested parties.

issuance under the Plan shall be increased by the lesser of (a) the number of Shares issued or transferred pursuant to rights granted under the Plan during the preceding calendar year or (b) such lesser number of Shares as determined by

 ARTICLE 4 

OFFERING PERIODS 
 4.1
Offering Periods. The Plan will be implemented by consecutive Offering Periods with a new Offering Period commencing on the first Trading Day on or after June 1st and December 1st each year, or on such other date as the Administrator will determine. The Administrator will have the authority to change the commencement date and duration of Offering Periods with respect to
future offerings. 
 ARTICLE 5 

ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 

5.1 Eligibility. Any Eligible Employee who shall be employed by the Company or any Related Corporation on the day immediately preceding
a given Enrollment Date for an Offering Period shall be eligible to participate in the Plan during such Offering Period, subject to the requirements of this Article 5 and the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code. 

5.2 Enrollment in Plan. 

(a) An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in the Plan for an Offering Period by delivering a subscription agreement to the
Company in such form as the Administrator requires and by such time prior to the Enrollment Date for such Offering Period as is designated by the Administrator. 

(b) Each such agreement shall designate a whole percentage of such Eligible Employee’s Compensation to be withheld by the Company
and any Related Corporation on each payday during the Offering Period as payroll deductions under the Plan. An Eligible Employee may designate any whole percentage of Compensation that is not less than one percent (1%) and not more

  
 5 

 
than the maximum percentage specified by the Administrator (which percentage shall be twenty percent (20%) in the absence of any such designation) as payroll deductions. The payroll
deductions made for each Participant shall be credited to an account for such Participant under the Plan and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company in a manner consistent with Section 12.5. 

(c) A Participant may increase or decrease the percentage of Compensation designated in his or her subscription agreement at any time
during an Offering Period; provided, however, that the Administrator may limit the number of changes a Participant may make to his or her payroll deduction elections during each Offering Period (and in the absence of any specific
designation by the Administrator, a Participant shall be allowed one change to his or her payroll deduction elections during each Offering Period). Any such change in payroll deductions shall be effective with the first full payroll period following
five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of a new subscription agreement evidencing the new payroll deduction election (or such shorter or longer period as may be specified by the Administrator). 

(d) A Participant may suspend payroll deductions at any time during an Offering Period. Any such suspension of payroll deductions shall
be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of a written notice of suspension (or such shorter or longer period as may be specified by the Administrator). In the event a
Participant elects to suspend his or her payroll deductions with respect to an Offering Period, such Participant’s cumulative payroll deductions prior to the suspension shall remain in his or her account and shall be applied to the purchase of
Shares on the next occurring Purchase Date and shall not be paid to such Participant unless he or she withdraws from participation in the Plan in accordance with Article 7. A Participant who suspends payroll deductions during an Offering Period
shall not be permitted to resume contributions to the Plan during that Offering Period. 
 (e) Except as otherwise determined by the
Administrator, in its sole discretion from time to time, a Participant may participate in the Plan only by means of payroll deductions and may not make contributions by lump sum payment for any Offering Period. 

5.3 Payroll Deductions. Except as otherwise determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion from time to time, payroll
deductions for a Participant shall commence with the first payroll following the Enrollment Date, and shall end with the last payroll in the Offering Period to which his or her authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the Participant
in accordance with Article 7. 
 5.4 Effect of Enrollment. A Participant’s completion of a subscription agreement will
enroll such Participant in the Plan for each subsequent Offering Period on the terms contained therein until the Participant submits a new subscription agreement, withdraws from participation under the Plan in accordance with Article 7, or
otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan. 
 5.5 Limitation on Purchase of Class A Common Stock. An Eligible
Employee may be granted rights under the Plan only if such rights, together with any other rights granted to such Eligible Employee under “employee stock purchase plans” of the Company and any Related Corporations, do not permit such
employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Related Corporation to accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined as of the first day of the Offering Period during which such rights are
granted) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time. This limitation shall be applied in accordance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code. 

  
 6 

 5.6 Decrease or Suspension of Payroll Deductions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the
extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 5.5 (and any other limitations set forth in the Plan), a Participant’s payroll deductions may be suspended by the Administrator at any time during an Offering
Period. The balance of the amount credited to the account of each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares by reason of Section 423(b)(8) of the Code or Section 5.5 (or the other limitations set forth in the Plan)
shall be paid to such Participant in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable following the Purchase Date. 
 5.7 Leave of
Absence. During leaves of absence approved by the Company meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-1(h)(2) under the Code, a Participant may continue participation in the Plan by making cash payments to the Company on
his or her normal payday equal to his or her authorized payroll deduction. 
 ARTICLE 6 

GRANT AND EXERCISE OF RIGHTS 

6.1 Grant of Rights. On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall
be granted a right to purchase the maximum number of Shares that an Eligible Employee may purchase during each Offering Period, subject to the limits in Section 5.5, and shall have the right to buy, on each Purchase Date during such Offering
Period, such number of Shares as is determined by dividing (a) such Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Purchase Date and retained in the Participant’s account as of the Purchase Date, by (b) the applicable
Purchase Price. The right shall expire on the last day of the Offering Period. 
 6.2 Exercise of Rights. On each Purchase Date, each
Participant’s accumulated payroll deductions will be applied to the purchase of whole Shares of the Company, up to the maximum number of Shares permitted pursuant to the terms of the Plan or as determined by the Administrator in its sole
discretion from time to time, at the Purchase Price. No fractional Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of rights granted under the Plan, unless the Administrator specifically provides otherwise. Any cash in lieu of fractional Shares remaining
after the purchase of whole Shares upon exercise of a purchase right will be credited to a Participant’s account and carried forward and applied toward the purchase of whole Shares for the next following Offering Period. 

6.3 Purchase of Shares. As soon as practicable following the applicable Purchase Date, the number of shares of Class A
Common Stock purchased by a Participant pursuant to Section 6.2 shall be delivered (either in share certificate or book entry form), in the Company’s sole discretion, to either (i) the Participant or (ii) an account established
in the Participant’s name at a stock brokerage or other financial services firm designated by the Company. 
 6.4 Pro Rata
Allocation of Shares. If the Administrator determines that, on a given Purchase Date, the number of Shares with respect to which rights are to be exercised may exceed (a) the number of Shares that were available for issuance under the Plan
on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (b) the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan on such Purchase Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion provide that the Company shall make a pro rata
allocation of the Shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Purchase Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole 

  
 7 

 
discretion to be equitable among all Participants for whom rights to purchase Class A Common Stock are to be exercised pursuant to this Article 6 on such Purchase Date, and shall either
(a) continue all Offering Periods then in effect, or (b) terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Article 9. The Company may make a pro rata allocation of the Shares available on the Enrollment Date of any
applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional Shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date. The balance of the amount
credited to the account of each Participant that has not been applied to the purchase of Shares shall be paid to such Participant in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Purchase Date. 

6.5 Withholding. At the time a Participant’s rights under the Plan are exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all
of the Class A Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of, the Participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, that arise upon the exercise of the right or the
disposition of the Class A Common Stock. At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including
any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Class A Common Stock by the Participant. 

6.6 Conditions to Issuance of Class A Common Stock. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for, or
make any book entries evidencing, Shares purchased upon the exercise of rights under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

(a) The admission of such Shares to listing on the principal stock exchange, if any, on which the Class A Common Stock is then
listed or admitted for trading; and 
 (b) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state
or federal law, or under the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other governmental regulatory body that the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or advisable; and 

(c) The obtaining of any approval, authorization or waiver from any state or federal governmental agency that the Administrator shall,
in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and 
 (d) The payment to the Company of all amounts that it is
required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon exercise of the rights, if any. 
 ARTICLE 7 

WITHDRAWAL; CESSATION OF ELIGIBILITY 

7.1 Withdrawal. A Participant may elect to withdraw from participation in the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company
in a form acceptable to the Administrator no later than five (5) business days prior to the end of the Offering Period. All of the payroll deductions credited to the Participant’s account and not yet used to exercise his or her rights
under the Plan shall be paid to the Participant as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of the notice of withdrawal and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated, and no further

  
 8 

 
payroll deductions for the purchase of Shares shall be made for such Offering Period. If a Participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions shall not resume at the beginning of
the next Offering Period unless the Participant delivers a new subscription agreement to the Company. 
 7.2 Suspension. A
Participant may suspend payroll deductions at any time during an Offering Period in accordance with Section 5.2(d). In the event a Participant elects to suspend his or her payroll deductions with respect to an Offering Period, such
Participant’s cumulative payroll deductions prior to the suspension shall remain in his or her account and shall be applied to the purchase of Shares on the next occurring Purchase Date and shall not be paid to such Participant unless he or she
withdraws from participation in the Plan in accordance with Section 7.1. 
 7.3 Future Participation. A Participant’s
withdrawal from an Offering Period shall not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in subsequent Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the
Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws. 
 7.4 Cessation of Eligibility. Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an
Eligible Employee for any reason, he or she shall be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan pursuant to this Article 7 and the payroll deductions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period shall be paid to
such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 12.1, as soon as reasonably practicable, and such Participant’s rights for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated.

 ARTICLE 8 

ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK 

8.1 Changes in Capital Structure. Subject to Section 8.3, in the event, after the Effective Date, of any stock dividend, stock
split, combination or reclassification of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization, distribution of Company assets to stockholders (other than normal cash dividends), or any other similar corporate event affecting the Class A
Common Stock, the Administrator may make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as the Administrator in its sole discretion may deem appropriate to reflect such change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and type of Shares (or other
securities or property) that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments to the limitations in Section 3.1), (b) the Purchase Price with respect to any outstanding rights, and (c) the class(es) and number

any transaction or event described in Section 8.1, or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company or its outstanding capital stock (including, without limitation, any Change in Control), and whenever the
Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any right under the Plan, to facilitate
such transactions or events, or to give effect to changes in laws, regulations or principles, the Administrator, in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the
following actions: 
 (a) To provide for either (i) termination of any outstanding right in exchange for an amount of cash, if
any, equal to the amount that would have been obtained upon the exercise of such right had such right been currently exercisable or (ii) the replacement of such outstanding right with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; 

  
 9 

 (b) To provide that the outstanding rights under the Plan shall be assumed by the
successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar rights covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to
the number and kind of shares and prices; 
 (c) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or
property) subject to outstanding rights under the Plan and/or in the terms and conditions of outstanding rights and rights that may be granted in the future;

next scheduled Purchase Date on such date as the Administrator determines and that Participants’ rights under the ongoing Offering Period(s) shall terminate; and 

(e) To provide that all outstanding rights shall terminate without being exercised. 

8.3 No Adjustment Under Certain Circumstances. No adjustment or action described in this Article 8 or in any other provision of
the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.

consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other Related
Corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Administrator under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect,
and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of Shares that a Participant shall have the right to buy in any Offering Period or that are available for issuance under the Plan.

deemed to constitute a contract between the Company and any Eligible Employee or Participant to be consideration for, or an inducement to, or a condition of, the employment of any Eligible Employee or Participant. Nothing contained in the Plan shall
be deemed to give the right to any Participant to be retained as an employee of the Company or any Related Corporation or to interfere with the right of the Company or any Related Corporation to discharge any Eligible Employee or Participant at any
time. 
 12.8 Effect Upon Other Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect
for the Company. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Employees of the Company or any Related Corporation. 

12.9 Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan and the participation in the Plan by any
individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemption rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of
the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule.

any Shares purchased upon exercise of a right under the Plan if such disposition or transfer is made: (a) within two years from the Enrollment Date of the Offering Period in which the Shares were purchased or (b) within one year after the
Purchase Date on which such Shares were purchased. Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer, the amount and type of consideration realized (cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration) by
the Participant in such disposition or other transfer, and such additional information as may be requested by the Administrator. 
 12.11
Equal Rights and Privileges. All Eligible Employees of the Company and any Related Corporation shall have equal rights and privileges under this Plan to the extent required under Section 423 of the Code so that this Plan qualifies as an
“employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code. Any provision of this Plan that is inconsistent with Section 423 of the Code shall, without further act or amendment by the Company or the Board, be
reformed to comply with the equal rights and privileges requirement of Section 423 of the Code.
