Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Committee on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Restricted Stock to qualify as “performance based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In
granting Restricted Stock that is intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall follow any procedures determined by it in its sole discretion from time to time to be necessary, advisable, or appropriate to ensure
qualification of the Restricted Stock under Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals).

STOCK REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE, WHETHER VOLUNTARY, INVOLUNTARY, OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER IMPOSED PURSUANT TO THE GOLD BANC CORPORATION, INC. 1996 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN AND IN A RESTRICTED STOCK

Distributions. During the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares unless otherwise provided in the applicable
Award Agreement. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid with

 8.1 Grant of Performance Units/Shares. Performance Units and Performance Shares may be granted to Employees, Directors and Consultants at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Committee
in its sole discretion. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number of Performance Units and Performance Shares granted to each participant; provided, however, that during any Fiscal Year, (a) no Participant shall
receive Performance Units having an initial value greater than $100,000, and (b) no Participant shall receive more than 100,000 Performance Shares. 
 8.2 Value of Performance Units/Shares. Each Performance Unit shall have an initial value that is established by the Committee on or before the Grant Date. 
 8.3 Performance Objectives and Other Terms. The Committee shall set performance objectives in its sole discretion which, depending on the extent
to which they are met, will determine the number or value of Performance Units or Performance Shares, or both, that will be paid out to the Participants. The time period during which the performance objectives must be 

  

 12 

 
met shall be called the “Performance Period.” Performance Periods of Awards granted to Section 16 Persons shall, in all cases, exceed six
(6) months in length or such shorter period as may be permissible while maintaining compliance with Rule 16b-3. Each Award of Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the Performance
Period, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. 
 8.3.1 General
Performance Objectives. The Committee may set performance objectives based upon (a) the achievement of Company-wide, divisional or individual goals, (b) applicable Federal or state securities laws, or (c) any other basis
determined by the Committee in its discretion. 
 8.3.2 Section 162(m) Performance Objectives. For purposes of
qualifying grants of Performance Units or Performance Shares as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee in its sole discretion may determine that the performance objectives applicable to
Performance Units or Performance Shares, as the case may be, shall be based on the achievement of Performance Goals. The Performance Goals shall be set by the Committee on or before the latest date permissible to enable the Performance Units or
Performance Shares, as the case may be, to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In granting Performance Units or Performance Shares which are intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of
the Code, the Committee shall follow any procedures determined by it from time to time to be necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion to ensure qualification of the Performance Units or Performance Shares, as the case may be, under
Section 162(m) of the Code (e.g., in determining the Performance Goals). 
 8.4 Earning of Performance Units/Shares. After the
applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance Units or Performance Shares, as the case may be, earned by the participant over the
Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives have been achieved. After the grant of a Performance Unit or Performance Share, the Committee in its sole discretion may reduce or
waive any performance objectives for such Performance Unit or Performance Share; provided, however, that Performance Periods of Awards granted to Section 16 Persons shall not be less than six (6) months or such shorter period as may be
permissible while maintaining compliance with Rule 16b-3. 
 8.5 Form and Timing of Payment of Performance Units/Shares. Payment of
earned Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be made as soon as practicable after the end of the applicable Performance Period. The Committee in its sole discretion may pay earned Performance Units or Performance Shares in the form of cash,
in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the earned Performance Units or Performance Shares, as the case may be, at the end of the applicable Performance Period), or in any combination thereof. 
  

 13 

 8.6 Cancellation of Performance Units/Shares. On the earlier of the date set forth in the Award
Agreement or the participant’s Termination of Service (other than by death, Disability or, with respect to an Employee, Retirement), all unearned or unvested Performance Units or Performance Shares shall be forfeited to the Company, and
thereafter shall be available for grant under this Plan. In the event of a Participant’s death, Disability or, with respect to an Employee, Retirement, prior to the end of a Performance Period, the Committee shall reduce his or her Performance
Units or Performance Shares proportionately based on the date of such Termination of Service. 
 SECTION 9 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.1 Deferrals. The
Committee in its sole discretion may permit a Participant to defer receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant under an Award. Any such deferral election shall be made at least one year
prior to the due date, and shall be subject to such rules and procedures as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. 
 9.2 No Effect on Employment or Service. Nothing in this plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any participant’s employment or service at any time, with or without cause. For purposes
of this Plan, transfer of employment of a participant between the Company and any of its Affiliates (or between Affiliates) shall not be deemed a Termination of Service. Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is on an at-will basis only,
unless otherwise provided by an applicable employment agreement between the Participant and the Company or its Affiliate, as the case may be. 
 9.3 Participation. No Employee, Director or Consultant shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to receive a future Award. 
 9.4 Indemnification. Each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee or the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Company against and from (a) any loss, cost, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which
he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under this Plan or any Award Agreement, and (b) from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the
Company’s prior written approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such claim, action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided, however, that he or she 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 of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be
entitled under the Company’s incorporation documents or Bylaws, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, or under any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 
  

 14 

 9.5 Successors. All obligations of the Company under this Plan, with respect to Awards granted
hereunder, shall be binding on any successor of the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the
Company. 
 9.6 Beneficiary Designations. If permitted by the Committee, a Participant under this Plan may name a beneficiary or
beneficiaries to whom any vested but unpaid Award shall be paid in the event of the Participant’s death. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant, and shall be effective only if given in a form and manner
acceptable to the Committee. In the absence of any such designation, any vested benefits remaining unpaid at the participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate and, subject to the terms of this Plan and of the applicable
Award Agreement, any unexercised vested Award may be exercised by the administrator or executor of the Participant’s estate. 
 9.7
Nontransferability of Awards. No Award granted under this Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or to the limited extent provided
in Sections 7.3 and 9.6. All rights with respect to an Award granted to a Participant shall be available during his or her lifetime only to the Participant. 
 9.8 No Rights as Shareholder. Except to the limited extent provided in Sections 7.6 and 7.7, no Participant nor any beneficiary thereof shall have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of the Company
with respect to any Shares issuable pursuant to an Award or the exercise thereof, unless and until certificates representing such Shares shall have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and
delivered to the Participant or his or her beneficiary. 
 SECTION 10 
 AMENDMENT, TERMINATION, AND DURATION 
 10.1 Amendment, Suspension, or
Termination. The Board in its sole discretion may amend or terminate this Plan, or any part thereof, at any time and for any reason. The amendment, suspension or termination of this plan shall not, without the consent of the Participant, alter
or impair any rights or obligations under any Award previously granted to such Participant. No Award may be granted during any period of suspension or after termination of this Plan. 
 10.2 Duration of this Plan. This Plan shall become effective on the date specified herein, and subject to Section 10.1, shall remain in
effect thereafter; provided, however, that without further shareholder approval, no Incentive Stock Option may be granted under this plan after the tenth anniversary of the effective date of this Plan. 
 SECTION 11 
 TAX WITHHOLDING 
 11.1 Withholding Requirements. Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award or the exercise thereof, the Company shall have
the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local taxes, including the Participant’s Social Security tax obligation, required 

  

 15 

 
to be withheld with respect to such Award or the exercise thereof. 
 11.2 Withholding Arrangements. The Committee, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit a participant to satisfy such tax withholding obligation, in
whole or in part, by (a) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable Shares, or (b) delivering to the Company Shares then owned by the participant having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The
amount of the withholding requirement shall be deemed to include any amount that the Committee agrees may be withheld at the time any such election is made, not to exceed the amount determined by using the maximum federal, state, or local marginal
income tax rates applicable to the Participant with respect to the Award on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered shall be determined as of the date that
the taxes are required to be withheld. 
 SECTION 12 
 CHANGE IN CONTROL 
 12.1 Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, all
Awards granted under this Plan that are then outstanding and not then exercisable, or are then subject to restrictions, shall, unless otherwise provided for in the Agreements applicable thereto, become immediately exercisable, and all restrictions
shall be removed, as of the first date that the change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred, and shall remain as such for the remaining life of the Award as provided herein and within the provisions of the related Agreements; provided
however, that the Board of Directors of the Company may limit the applicability of this Section with respect to that portion of any Award to which Section 280G of the Code is applicable. 
 12.2 Definition. For purposes of Section 12.1 above, a Change in Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred if the
conditions set forth in anyone or more of the following shall have been satisfied, unless such condition shall have received prior approval of a majority vote of the Continuing Directors, as defined below, indicating that Section 12.1
shall not apply thereto: 
 (a) any “person” (as such term is used in Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act, but excluding the Company, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the company, or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the shareholders of the Company in substantially
the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company) first becomes, subsequent to the adoption of this Plan, the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities
of the Company representing thirty percent (30%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; 
 (b) during any period of two consecutive years (not including any period prior to the Effective Date of this Plan), individuals (“Existing Directors”) who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board
of Directors, and any new director (an “Approved Director”) (other than a director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of
this Section 12.2) whose election by the Board of Directors or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders was approved 

  

 16 

 
by a vote of a least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election
or nomination for election previously was so approved (Existing Directors together with Approved Directors constituting “Continuing Directors”), cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors; or

 (c) the shareholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other person, other than
(i) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities for the
surviving entity) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (ii) a merger in which no
“person” (as defined in Section 12.2(a)) acquires more than thirty percent (30%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; or 
 (d) the shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by
the Company of all or substantially all of the company’s assets or any transaction having a similar effect.

 171994 Key Employee Stock Option Plan

 Exhibit (10)(vv) 
 FIRST BUSINESS BANCSHARES OF KANSAS CITY, INC. 
 1994 KEY EMPLOYEE STOCK OPTION PLAN 
 as amended on October 19, 2006 
 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of the First Business Bancshares of Kansas City, Inc. 1994 Key Employee Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) is to advance the interests of the Corporation by encouraging and providing a means whereby key
employees may acquire an indirect equity interest in the success of First Business Bank of Kansas City, N.A. (the “Bank”) by purchasing regular common stock of First Business Bancshares of Kansas City, Inc. (the “Corporation”)
pursuant to Options granted under the Plan. These Options will not be qualified under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Board of Directors of the Corporation believes that the Plan will enable the Corporation
to attract and retain the services of highly qualified executives upon whose judgment, leadership and special efforts the successful conduct of the Corporation’s business is largely dependent. 
 2. NUMBER OF SHARES. Options under the plan may be granted annually to any key employee of the Corporation to purchase such number of shares of the
Corporation’s regular common stock which the Directors shall determine. Such options shall be granted on the last day in              of each year. The aggregate number of
shares of the regular common stock of the Corporation which may be issued under Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall not exceed 27,000 shares, subject to adjustment as described in Section 8. Such shares may, at the discretion of the
Board of Directors, consist either in whole or in part of shares of the corporation’s authorized but unissued regular common stock or shares of the Corporation’s authorized and issued regular common stock reacquired by the Corporation and
held in its treasury. If an Option granted under the Plan is surrendered or for any other reason ceases to be exercisable in whole or in part, the shares which were subject to such Option, but as to which the Option has not been exercised, shall
continue to be available under the Plan. 
 3. ADMINISTRATION AND ELIGIBILITY. 
 (a) This Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall establish rules for the proper administration
of the Plan. The Board of Directors of the Corporation shall have the authority to grant Options hereunder, to cancel Options with the consent of the Optionee or otherwise in accordance herewith and to impose such conditions on the grant of an
Option as it determines are appropriate. 
 (b) The Board of Directors shall take into consideration the recommendations of
the corporation’s Compensation Committee in determining the number of Options granted and the recipients of such Options. 
 (c) Within the limits of the express provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors shall determine: (i) the key employees (“Key Employees”) to whom awards hereunder shall be granted, (ii) the time or times at which such
awards shall be granted, (iii) the form and amount of the awards, and (iv) the limitations, restrictions and conditions applicable to any such award. In making such determinations, the Board may take into 

 
account the nature of the services rendered by such Key Employees, or classes of Key Employees, their present and potential contributions to the
Corporation’s success and such other factors as the Board in its discretion shall deem relevant. 
 (d) The Board’s
determinations under the Plan, including without limitation, determinations as to the persons to receive awards, the terms and provisions of such awards and the agreements evidencing the same, need not be uniform and may be made by it selectively
among persons who receive or are eligible to receive awards under the Plan, whether or not such persons are similarly situated. 
 4. OPTION
PRICE. The Option exercise price shall be equal to, but not be less than, 100% of the Fair Market Value of the regular common stock at the time an Option is granted. “Fair Market Value” of any share of the Corporation’s regular common
stock at any date shall be: (i) if the shares are listed on an established stock exchange or exchanges, the last reported sale price per share on such date on the principal exchange on which it is traded, or if no sale was made on such date on
such principal exchange, at the closing reported price on such date on such exchange; or (ii) if the shares of stock are not then listed on an exchange, the last sales price or closing price per share in the over-the-counter market as reported
by the National Association of Securities Dealer’s, Inc. Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) in the National Market System List on such date; or (iii) if the shares of regular common stock are not then listed on an exchange or
quoted on NASDAQ, an amount equal to its book value based on the Corporation’s consolidated audited financial statements for the most recent year end. 
 5. OPTIONS AND VESTING. 
 (a) TERM OF OPTIONS. Each Option shall become exercisable at the
time, and for the number of shares of Common Stock, fixed by the Board in the Option Agreement with each Key Employee. Each Option shall expire and all rights to purchase Common Stock thereunder shall cease no later than: 
 (i) Three months from the date on which the Optionee’s continuous employment by the Corporation or the Bank is terminated; or

 (ii) Three months from the date on which the Corporation ceases to own directly or through attribution from its
wholly-owned subsidiaries 50% or more of the voting stock of the Bank; or 
 (iii) Twelve months from the date on which the
Optionee’s continuous employment by the Corporation or the Bank is terminated, as a result of death, or if, at the time of such termination, the Optionee is considered disabled for purposes of Section 422A of the Code; or 
 (iv) The tenth anniversary of the date the Option was granted; or 
 (v) Regardless of anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in the 1994 Plan, from the date fraud is committed if there is a final
decision by a court of 

  

 2 

 
competent jurisdiction that the Optionee committed fraud in the exercise of his duties to the Corporation or the Bank. 
 Although already vested Options may be exercised during the three-month and twelve-month periods after termination of employment referred
to in Section 3(a), 3(b) and 3(c) above, Options do not continue to vest during these three-month and twelve-month periods. 
 (b) TAX WITHHOLDING. Whenever the Corporation proposes or is required to issue or transfer shares of Common Stock to a Key Employee under the Plan, the Corporation shall have the right to require the Key Employee to remit to the Corporation
an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state and local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such shares. If such certificates have been delivered prior to the time a withholding obligation
arises, the Corporation shall have the right to require the Key Employee to remit to the Corporation an amount sufficient to satisfy all federal, state, or local withholding tax requirements at the time such obligation arises and to withhold from
other amounts payable to the Key Employee, as compensation or otherwise, as necessary. In lieu of requiring a Key Employee to make a payment to the Corporation in an amount related to the withholding tax requirement, the Board of Directors may, in
its discretion, provide that at the Key Employee’s election, the tax withholding obligation shall be satisfied by the Corporation’s withholding a portion of the shares otherwise distributable to the Key Employee, such shares being valued
at their FAIR MARKET value at the date of exercise, or by the Key Employee’s delivering to the Corporation a portion of the shares previously delivered by the Corporation, such shares being valued at their fair market value as the date of
delivery of such shares by the Key Employee to the Corporation. 
 Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary:
(i) a Section 16 Insider’s election pursuant to the preceding sentence must be made on or prior to the date as of which income is realized by the Section 16 Insider in connection with such benefit and must be irrevocable,
and (ii) if the Section 16 Insider elects to have shares withheld from those otherwise issuable, then the election must be made in writing either (A) within the 10 business days beginning on the third business day following the
release of the Corporation’s quarterly or annual summary of earnings and ending on the 12th business day following such day, or (B) at least six months prior to the date the income is realized. “Section 16 Insider” shall be
defined by reference to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder. 
 (c) NORMAL VESTING OF OPTIONS. Options allocated in any year shall be subject to a vesting schedule before they are exercisable in accordance with the following schedule: 
  

			
	 End of year one
	  	20% of allocation
	 End of year two
	  	20% of allocation
	 End of year three
	  	20% of allocation
	 End of year four
	  	20% of allocation
	 End of year five
	  	20% of allocation

  

 3 

 (d) VESTING OF OPTIONS UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL. 
 In the event that: 
 (i) any
person (as such term is used in Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder and including any Affiliate or Associate of such person, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under said Act, and any person acting
in concert with such person) directly or indirectly acquires or otherwise becomes entitled to vote more than 50 percent of the voting power entitled to be cast at elections for directors (“Voting Power”) of the Corporation or the Bank; or

 (ii) there occurs any merger or consolidation of the Corporation or the Bank, or any sale, lease or exchange of all or any
substantial part of the consolidated assets of the Corporation or the Bank to any other person and (A) in the case of a merger or consolidation, the holders of outstanding stock of the Corporation or the Bank entitled to vote in elections of
directors immediately before such merger or consolidation (excluding for this purpose any person, including any Affiliate or Associate, that directly or indirectly owns or is entitled to vote 20 percent or more of the Voting Power of the Corporation
or the Bank) hold less than 80 percent of the Voting Power of the survivor of such merger or consolidation or its parent; or (B) in the case of any such sale, lease or exchange, the Corporation does not own at least 80 percent of the Voting
Power of the other person, then all Options previously allocated to Key Employees shall immediately vest and shall be exercisable at the Key Employee’s election. 
 (e) CORPORATION’S BUY-BACK RIGHT. 
 If a Key Employee voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Corporation, the Corporation shall have the right to repurchase such Key Employee’s Options. The repurchase price shall be the difference
between the Fair Market Value of the Option shares on the proposed transaction date less the exercise price of the Option. 
 6. EXERCISE OF
AN OPTION. During the period when any Option or portion of it remains exercisable, such Option may be exercised at any time in whole or in part. An Option granted pursuant to this Plan shall be deemed exercised, in whole or in part, on the
registered or certified mail postmark date of the Optionee’s written notice of exercise to the Corporation. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the exercise price of the shares then being purchased. Payment for such shares
shall be tendered in cash. 
 7. USE OF PROCEEDS. The consideration received by the corporation for shares of its regular common stock issued
pursuant to Options granted under the Plan shall be credited to stated capital to the extent of the aggregate par value of that stock. All amounts of such consideration received by the Corporation in excess of the aggregate par value shall
constitute capital surplus. 
  

 4 

 8. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN STOCK. In the event of any corporate event or transaction, such as a
merger, consolidation, share exchange, recapitalization, reorganization, separation, stock dividend, stock split, split-up, spin-off or other distribution of stock or property of the Corporation, combination of shares, exchange of shares, dividend
in kind, or other like change in capital structure or distribution (other than normal cash dividends) to shareholders of the Corporation, the Committee, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Key Employees’ rights under the Plan, shall
substitute or adjust, in an equitable manner (including adjustments to avoid fractional shares), the number of common shares (i) reserved under the Plan, (ii) for which Options may be granted to an individual Key Employee, and
(iii) covered by outstanding Options denominated in stock, (b) the stock prices related to outstanding Options; and (c) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Options. In the event of a corporate
merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Committee shall be authorized to issue or assume Options, whether or not in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies, by
means of substitution of new Options for previously issued awards or an assumption of previously issued awards. All adjustments under this Section 8 shall be made in a manner such that they will not result in a penalty under Section 409A
of the Code. Any adjustment, waiver, conversion or other action taken by the Committee under this Section 8 shall be conclusive and binding on all Key Employees, the Corporation and their successors, assigns and beneficiaries. 
 9. NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS. An Option granted under the plan may not be transferred except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may
be exercised during the lifetime of any Key Employee only by the Key Employee. 
 10. INVESTMENT PURPOSE. Each Option under the Plan shall be
granted on the condition that the purchases of shares of regular common stock of the corporation thereunder shall be for investment purposes and not with a view to resale or distribution; and upon exercise of any Option, each Optionee shall, upon
request of the Corporation, execute an instrument prepared by the Corporation evidencing such investment intent. The stock certificates issued pursuant to the exercise of any Option shall bear the following restrictive legend: 
 “The shares represented by this certificate have been acquired for investment and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The
shares may not be sold or transferred in the absence of such registration or an exemption therefrom under said Act.” 
 11. SUSPENSION
OR TERMINATION OF PLAN. The Board of Directors may at any time suspend or terminate the Plan. No Option may be granted during such suspension or after such termination of this Plan. The suspension or termination of the Plan shall not, without the
Optionee’s consent, alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Option previously granted under the plan. 
  

 5 

 12. AMENDMENT OF PLAN. The Board of Directors may at any time amend the plan in such respects as the
Board of Directors may deem advisable, or in order to conform to any change in the law, or in any other respect which the Board of Directors may deem to be in the best interest of the Corporation; provided, however, that no such amendment shall,
without further approval of the stockholders of the Corporation (except as provided in Section 8): (a) increase the aggregate number of shares of regular common stock of the Corporation which may be issued under Options granted pursuant to
the Plan; (b) change the minimum Option purchase price; or (c) increase the maximum period during which the Options may be exercised. Any amendment to the plan shall not, without the Key Employee-optionee’s consent, alter or impair
any rights or obligations under any Option previously granted under this Plan.
