1. Purpose. The purpose
of this AMENDED AND RESTATED 2011 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN (the “Plan”) is to assist ADVAXIS, INC. (the “Company”)
and its Related Entities (as hereinafter defined) in attracting, motivating, retaining and rewarding high-quality executives and
other employees, officers, directors, consultants and other persons who provide services to the Company or its Related Entities
by enabling such persons to acquire or increase a proprietary interest in the Company in order to strengthen the mutuality of
interests between such persons and the Company’s shareholders, and providing such persons with annual and long term performance
incentives to expend their maximum efforts in the creation of shareholder value.

3. Administration.

 

(a) Authority
of the Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, except to the extent (and subject to the limitations
imposed by Section 3(b) hereof) the Board elects to administer the Plan, in which case the Plan shall be administered by only
those members of the Board who are Independent members of the Board, in which case references herein to the “Committee”
shall be deemed to include references to the Independent members of the Board. The Committee shall have full and final authority,
subject to and consistent with the provisions of the Plan, to select Eligible Persons to become Participants, grant Awards, determine
the type, number and other terms and conditions of, and all other matters relating to, Awards, prescribe Award Agreements (which
need not be identical for each Participant) and rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan, construe and interpret
the Plan and Award Agreements and correct defects, supply omissions or reconcile inconsistencies therein, and to make all other
decisions and determinations as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. In exercising
any discretion granted to the Committee under the Plan or pursuant to any Award, the Committee shall not be required to follow
past practices, act in a manner consistent with past practices, or treat any Eligible Person or Participant in a manner consistent
with the treatment of any other Eligible Persons or Participants.

 

(b) Manner
of Exercise of Committee Authority. The Committee, and not the Board, shall exercise sole and exclusive discretion (i)
on any matter relating to a Participant then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to the extent
necessary in order that transactions by such Participant shall be exempt under Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, (ii) with respect
to any Award that is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m), to the extent necessary
in order for such Award to so qualify; and (iii) with respect to any Award to an Independent Director. Any action of the Committee
shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company, its Related Entities, Eligible Persons, Participants,
Beneficiaries, transferees under Section 10(b) hereof or other persons claiming rights from or through a Participant, and shareholders.
The express grant of any specific power to the Committee, and the taking of any action by the Committee, shall not be construed
as limiting any power or authority of the Committee. The Committee may delegate to officers or managers of the Company or any
Related Entity, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms and limitations as the Committee shall determine,
to perform such functions, including administrative functions as the Committee may determine to the extent that such delegation
will not result in the loss of an exemption under Rule 16b-3(d)(1) for Awards granted to Participants subject to Section 16 of
the Exchange Act in respect of the Company and will not cause Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation”
under Code Section 162(m) to fail to so qualify. The Committee may appoint agents to assist it in administering the Plan.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(c) Limitation
of Liability. The Committee and the Board, and each member thereof, shall be entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon
any report or other information furnished to him or her by any officer or Employee, the Company’s independent auditors,
Consultants or any other agents assisting in the administration of the Plan. Members of the Committee and the Board, and any officer
or Employee acting at the direction or on behalf of the Committee or the Board, shall not be personally liable for any action
or determination taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified
and protected by the Company with respect to any such action or determination.

  

4. Shares Subject to Plan.

 

(a) Limitation
on Overall Number of Shares Available for Delivery Under Plan. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10(c) hereof,
the total number of Shares reserved and available for delivery under the Plan shall be Two Million One Hundred Twenty Thousand
2,120,000. Any Shares that are subject to Awards shall be counted against this limit as one (1) Share for every one (1) Share
granted. Any Shares delivered under the Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares.

 

(b) Application
of Limitation to Grants of Awards. No Award may be granted if the number of Shares to be delivered in connection with
such an Award exceeds the number of Shares remaining available for delivery under the Plan, minus the number of Shares deliverable
in settlement of or relating to then outstanding Awards. The Committee may adopt reasonable counting procedures to ensure appropriate
counting, avoid double counting (as, for example, in the case of tandem or substitute awards) and make adjustments if the number
of Shares actually delivered differs from the number of Shares previously counted in connection with an Award.

 

(c) Availability
of Shares Not Delivered under Awards and Adjustments to Limits.

 

(i) If any Awards
are forfeited, expire or otherwise terminate without issuance of such Shares, or any Award is settled for cash or otherwise does
not result in the issuance of all or a portion of the Shares subject to such Award, the Shares to which those Awards were subject,
shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, expiration, termination, cash settlement or non-issuance, again be available for delivery
with respect to Awards under the Plan.

 

(ii) In the event
that any Option or other Award granted hereunder is exercised through the tendering of Shares (either actually or by attestation)
or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, or withholding tax liabilities arising from such option or other award are satisfied
by the tendering of Shares (either actually or by attestation) or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, then only the number
of Shares issued net of the Shares tendered or withheld shall be counted for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares
available for grant under the Plan.

 

(iii) Substitute
Awards shall not reduce the Shares authorized for delivery under the Plan or authorized for delivery to a Participant in any period.
Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Related Entity or with which the Company or any Related
Entity combines has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its shareholders, the shares available for delivery
pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment
or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of
common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce
the Shares authorized for delivery under the Plan; if and to the extent that the use of such Shares would not require approval
of the Company’s shareholders under the rules of the Listing Market.

 

(iv) Any Share
that again becomes available for delivery pursuant to this Section 4(c) shall be added back as one (1) Share.

 

(v) Notwithstanding
anything in this Section 4(c) to the contrary but subject to adjustment as provided in Section 10(c) hereof, the maximum aggregate
number of Shares that may be delivered under the Plan as a result of the exercise of the Incentive Stock Options shall be Two
Million One Hundred Twenty Thousand(2,120,000) Shares.

 

(d) No Further
Awards Under Prior Plans. In light of the adoption of this Plan, no further awards shall be made under the Prior Plans
after the Shareholder Approval Date.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

5. Eligibility; Per-Person Award
Limitations. Awards may be granted under the Plan only to Eligible Persons. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section
10(c), in any fiscal year of the Company during any part of which the Plan is in effect, no Participant may be granted (i) Options
or Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to more than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (250,000) Shares or (ii) Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Units, Performance Shares and/or Other Stock-Based Awards with respect to more than Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (2500,000)
Shares. In addition, the maximum dollar value payable to any one Participant with respect to Performance Units is (x) Two Million
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000) with respect to any 12 month Performance Period (pro-rated for any Performance Period
that is less than 12 months based upon the ratio of the number of days in the Performance Period as compared to 365), and (y)
with respect to any Performance Period that is more than 12 months, Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) multiplied by the number
of full 12 month periods that are in the Performance Period.

  

6. Specific Terms of Awards.

 

(a) General.
Awards may be granted on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6. In addition, the Committee may impose on
any Award or the exercise thereof, at the date of grant or thereafter (subject to Section 10(e)), such additional terms and conditions,
not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee shall determine, including terms requiring forfeiture of Awards
in the event of termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service and terms permitting a Participant to make elections
relating to his or her Award. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Committee shall retain full power and discretion
to accelerate, waive or modify, at any time, any term or condition of an Award that is not mandatory under the Plan. Except in
cases in which the Committee is authorized to require other forms of consideration under the Plan, or to the extent other forms
of consideration must be paid to satisfy the requirements of New York law, no consideration other than services may be required
for the grant (as opposed to the exercise) of any Award.

 

(b) Options.
The Committee is authorized to grant Options to any Eligible Person on the following terms and conditions:

 

(i)
Exercise Price. Other than in connection with Substitute Awards, the exercise price per Share purchasable under
an Option shall be determined by the Committee, provided that such exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date of grant of the Option and shall not, in any event, be less than the par value of a Share on the
date of grant of the Option. If an Employee owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules applicable under Section
424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or any parent corporation
or subsidiary corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, respectively) and
an Incentive Stock Option is granted to such Employee, the exercise price of such Incentive Stock Option (to the extent required
by the Code at the time of grant) shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date such Incentive Stock
Option is granted. Other than pursuant to Section 10(c)(i) and (ii), the Committee shall not be permitted to (A) lower the exercise
price per Share of an Option after it is granted, (B) cancel an Option when the exercise price per Share exceeds the Fair Market
Value of the underlying Shares in exchange for another Award (other than in connection with Substitute Awards), or (C) take any
other action with respect to an Option that may be treated as a repricing pursuant to the applicable rules of the Listing Market,
without approval of the Company’s shareholders.

 

(ii)
Time and Method of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which or the circumstances under
which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service
requirements), the time or times at which Options shall cease to be or become exercisable following termination of Continuous
Service or upon other conditions, the methods by which the exercise price may be paid or deemed to be paid (including in the discretion
of the Committee a cashless exercise procedure), the form of such payment, including, without limitation, cash, Shares (including
without limitation the withholding of Shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to the Award), other Awards or awards granted under
other plans of the Company or a Related Entity, or other property (including notes or other contractual obligations of Participants
to make payment on a deferred basis provided that such deferred payments are not in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange
Act, or any rule or regulation adopted thereunder or any other applicable law), and the methods by or forms in which Shares will
be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants.

 

    	 

    	 

    

  

(iii)
Incentive Stock Options. The terms of any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan shall comply in all respects
with the provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term of the Plan relating
to Incentive Stock Options (including any Stock Appreciation Right issued in tandem therewith) shall be interpreted, amended or
altered, nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify either the Plan or any
Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code, unless the Participant has first requested, or consents to, the change that
will result in such disqualification. Thus, if and to the extent required to comply with Section 422 of the Code, Options granted
as Incentive Stock Options shall be subject to the following special terms and conditions:

 

(A) the
Option shall not be exercisable for more than ten years after the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted; provided, however,
that if a Participant owns or is deemed to own (by reason of the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10%
of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company (or any parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of the
Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, respectively) and the Incentive Stock Option is granted
to such Participant, the term of the Incentive Stock Option shall be (to the extent required by the Code at the time of the grant)
for no more than five years from the date of grant; and

 

(B) The
aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the Incentive Stock Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which
Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan and all other option plans of the Company (and any parent corporation or subsidiary
corporation of the Company, as those terms are defined in Sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code, respectively) that become exercisable
for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year shall not (to the extent required by the Code at the time of the
grant) exceed $100,000.

 

(c) Stock
Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to any Eligible Person in conjunction with all
or part of any Option granted under the Plan or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option (a “Tandem Stock Appreciation
Right”), or without regard to any Option (a “Freestanding Stock Appreciation Right”), in each case upon such
terms and conditions as the Committee may establish in its sole discretion, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan,
including the following:

 

(i)
Right to Payment. A Stock Appreciation Right shall confer on the Participant to whom it is granted a right to receive,
upon exercise thereof, the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise over (B) the grant price of
the Stock Appreciation Right as determined by the Committee. The grant price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than
100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, in the case of a Freestanding Stock Appreciation Right, or less
than the associated Option exercise price, in the case of a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right. Other than pursuant to Section 10(c)(i)
and (ii), the Committee shall not be permitted to (A) lower the grant price per Share of a Stock Appreciation Right after it is
granted, (B) cancel a Stock Appreciation Right when the grant price per Share exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying
Shares in exchange for another Award (other than in connection with Substitute Awards), or (C) take any other action with respect
to a Stock Appreciation Right that may be treated as a repricing pursuant to the applicable rules of the Listing Market, without
shareholder approval.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(ii)
Other Terms. The Committee shall determine at the date of grant or thereafter, the time or times at which and the
circumstances under which a Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance
goals and/or future service requirements), the time or times at which Stock Appreciation Rights shall cease to be or become exercisable
following termination of Continuous Service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration
payable in settlement, method by or forms in which Shares will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, whether
or not a Stock Appreciation Right shall be in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions
of any Stock Appreciation Right.

 

(iii)
Tandem Stock Appreciation Rights. Any Tandem Stock Appreciation Right may be granted at the same time as the related
Option is granted or, for Options that are not Incentive Stock Options, at any time thereafter before exercise or expiration of
such Option. Any Tandem Stock Appreciation Right related to an Option may be exercised only when the related Option would be exercisable
and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the related Option exceeds the exercise price at which Shares can be acquired
pursuant to the Option. In addition, if a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right exists with respect to less than the full number of
Shares covered by a related Option, then an exercise or termination of such Option shall not reduce the number of Shares to which
the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right applies until the number of Shares then exercisable under such Option equals the number of
Shares to which the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right applies. Any Option related to a Tandem Stock Appreciation Right shall no
longer be exercisable to the extent the Tandem Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised, and any Tandem Stock Appreciation
Right shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the related Option has been exercised.

 

(d) Restricted
Stock Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Awards to any Eligible Person on the following terms
and conditions:

 

(i)
Grant and Restrictions. Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability, risk of
forfeiture and other restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose, or as otherwise provided in this Plan during the Restriction
Period. The terms of any Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan shall be set forth in a written Award Agreement which shall
contain provisions determined by the Committee and not inconsistent with the Plan. The restrictions may lapse separately or in
combination at such times, under such circumstances (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service
requirements), in such installments or otherwise, as the Committee may determine at the date of grant or thereafter. Except to
the extent restricted under the terms of the Plan and any Award Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, a Participant
granted Restricted Stock shall have all of the rights of a shareholder, including the right to vote the Restricted Stock and the
right to receive dividends thereon (subject to any mandatory reinvestment or other requirement imposed by the Committee). During
the period that the Restriction Stock Award is subject to a risk of forfeiture, subject to Section 10(b) below and except as otherwise
provided in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise
encumbered by the Participant.

 

(ii)
Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous
Service during the applicable Restriction Period, the Participant’s Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to a risk
of forfeiture that has not lapsed or otherwise been satisfied shall be forfeited and reacquired by the Company; provided that
the Committee may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that forfeiture
conditions relating to Restricted Stock Awards shall be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from
specified causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of Restricted Stock.

 

(iii)
Certificates for Stock. Restricted Stock granted under the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee
shall determine. If certificates representing Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, the Committee may
require that such certificates bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to such
Restricted Stock, that the Company retain physical possession of the certificates, and that the Participant deliver a stock power
to the Company, endorsed in blank, relating to the Restricted Stock.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(iv)
Dividends and Splits. As a condition to the grant of a Restricted Stock Award, the Committee may require or permit
a Participant to elect that any cash dividends paid on a Share of Restricted Stock be automatically reinvested in additional Shares
of Restricted Stock or applied to the purchase of additional Awards under the Plan. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
Shares distributed in connection with a stock split or stock dividend, and other property distributed as a dividend, shall be
subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Stock with respect to which such Shares
or other property have been distributed.

 

(e) Restricted
Stock Unit Award. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Unit Awards to any Eligible Person on the following
terms and conditions:

 

(i)
Award and Restrictions. Satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall occur upon expiration of the deferral
period specified for such Restricted Stock Unit Award by the Committee (or, if permitted by the Committee, as elected by the Participant).
In addition, a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such restrictions (which may include a risk of forfeiture) as the
Committee may impose, if any, which restrictions may lapse at the expiration of the deferral period or at earlier specified times
(including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), separately or in combination, in installments
or otherwise, as the Committee may determine. A Restricted Stock Unit Award may be satisfied by delivery of Shares, cash equal
to the Fair Market Value of the specified number of Shares covered by the Restricted Stock Units, or a combination thereof, as
determined by the Committee at the date of grant or thereafter. Prior to satisfaction of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, a Restricted
Stock Unit Award carries no voting or dividend or other rights associated with Share ownership.

 

(ii)
Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, upon termination of a Participant’s Continuous
Service during the applicable deferral period or portion thereof to which forfeiture conditions apply (as provided in the Award
Agreement evidencing the Restricted Stock Unit Award), the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award that is at that time
subject to a risk of forfeiture that has not lapsed or otherwise been satisfied shall be forfeited; provided that the Committee
may provide, by rule or regulation or in any Award Agreement, or may determine in any individual case, that forfeiture conditions
relating to a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified
causes, and the Committee may in other cases waive in whole or in part the forfeiture of any Restricted Stock Unit Award.

 

(iii)
Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at the date of grant, any Dividend Equivalents
that are granted with respect to any Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be either (A) paid with respect to such Restricted Stock
Unit Award at the dividend payment date in cash or in Shares of unrestricted stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount
of such dividends, or (B) deferred with respect to such Restricted Stock Unit Award and the amount or value thereof automatically
deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units, other Awards or other investment vehicles, as the Committee shall determine
or permit the Participant to elect. The applicable Award Agreement shall specify whether any Dividend Equivalents shall be paid
at the dividend payment date, deferred or deferred at the election of the Participant. If the Participant may elect to defer the
Dividend Equivalents, such election shall be made within 30 days after the grant date of the Restricted Stock Unit Award, but
in no event later than 12 months before the first date on which any portion of such Restricted Stock Unit Award vests (or at such
other times prescribed by the Committee as shall not result in a violation of Section 409A of the Code).

 

(f) Bonus
Stock and Awards in Lieu of Obligations. The Committee is authorized to grant Shares to any Eligible Persons as a bonus,
or to grant Shares or other Awards in lieu of obligations to pay cash or deliver other property under the Plan or under other
plans or compensatory arrangements, provided that, in the case of Eligible Persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act,
the amount of such grants remains within the discretion of the Committee to the extent necessary to ensure that acquisitions of
Shares or other Awards are exempt from liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Shares or Awards granted hereunder shall
be subject to such other terms as shall be determined by the Committee.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(g) Dividend
Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to any Eligible Person entitling the Eligible Person
to receive cash, Shares, other Awards, or other property equal in value to the regular dividends paid with respect to a specified
number of Shares, or other periodic payments. Dividend Equivalents may be awarded on a free-standing basis or in connection with
another Award. The Committee may provide that Dividend Equivalents shall be paid or distributed when accrued or shall be deemed
to have been reinvested in additional Shares, Awards, or other investment vehicles, and subject to such restrictions on transferability
and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. Any such determination by the Committee shall be made at the grant date
of the applicable Award.

 

(h) Performance
Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Person payable in cash, Shares, or other
Awards, on terms and conditions established by the Committee, subject to the provisions of Section 8 if and to the extent that
the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine that an Award shall be subject to those provisions. The performance criteria
to be achieved during any Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee upon
the grant of each Performance Award. Except as provided in Section 9 or as may be provided in an Award Agreement, Performance
Awards will be distributed only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. The performance goals to be achieved for each
Performance Period shall be conclusively determined by the Committee and may be based upon the criteria set forth in Section 8(b),
or in the case of an Award that the Committee determines shall not be subject to Section 8 hereof, any other criteria that the
Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine should be used for that purpose. The amount of the Award to be distributed
shall be conclusively determined by the Committee. Performance Awards may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the
close of the Performance Period or, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis in a manner
that does not violate the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

 

(i) Other
Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to any Eligible
Person such other Awards that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based
on, or related to, Shares, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. Other Stock-Based Awards
may be granted to Participants either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan, and such Other Stock-Based
Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall
determine the terms and conditions of such Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted
under this Section 6(i) shall be purchased for such consideration, (including without limitation loans from the Company or a Related
Entity provided that such loans are not in violation of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act, or any rule or regulation adopted thereunder
or any other applicable law) paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, cash,
Shares, other Awards or other property, as the Committee shall determine.

  

7. Certain Provisions Applicable to
Awards.

 

(a) Stand-Alone,
Additional, Tandem, and Substitute Awards. Awards granted under the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted
either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, any other Award or any award granted under
another plan of the Company, any Related Entity, or any business entity to be acquired by the Company or a Related Entity, or
any other right of a Participant to receive payment from the Company or any Related Entity. Such additional, tandem, and substitute
or exchange Awards may be granted at any time. If an Award is granted in substitution or exchange for another Award or award,
the Committee shall require the surrender of such other Award or award in consideration for the grant of the new Award. In addition,
Awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of the Company
or any Related Entity, in which the value of Shares subject to the Award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation (for
example, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units), or in which the exercise price, grant price or purchase price of the Award
in the nature of a right that may be exercised is equal to the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares minus the value of the
cash compensation surrendered (for example, Options or Stock Appreciation Right granted with an exercise price or grant price
“discounted” by the amount of the cash compensation surrendered), provided that any such determination to grant an
Award in lieu of cash compensation must be made in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(b) Term
of Awards. The term of each Award shall be for such period as may be determined by the Committee; provided that in no
event shall the term of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right exceed a period of ten years (or in the case of an Incentive Stock
Option such shorter term as may be required under Section 422 of the Code).

 

(c) Form
and Timing of Payment Under Awards; Deferrals. Subject to the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, payments
to be made by the Company or a Related Entity upon the exercise of an Option or other Award or settlement of an Award may be made
in such forms as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, and
may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis, provided that any determination to pay in
installments or on a deferred basis shall be made by the Committee at the date of grant. Any installment or deferral provided
for in the preceding sentence shall, however, be subject to the Company’s compliance with applicable law and all applicable
rules of the Listing Market, and in a manner intended to be exempt from or otherwise satisfy the requirements of Section 409A
of the Code. Subject to Section 7(e) hereof, the settlement of any Award may be accelerated, and cash paid in lieu of Shares in
connection with such settlement, in the sole discretion of the Committee or upon occurrence of one or more specified events (in
addition to a Change in Control). Any such settlement shall be at a value determined by the Committee in its sole discretion,
which, without limitation, may in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right be limited to the amount if any by which the
Fair Market Value of a Share on the settlement date exceeds the exercise or grant price. Installment or deferred payments may
be required by the Committee (subject to Section 7(e) of the Plan, including the consent provisions thereof in the case of any
deferral of an outstanding Award not provided for in the original Award Agreement) or permitted at the election of the Participant
on terms and conditions established by the Committee. The Committee may, without limitation, make provision for the payment or
crediting of a reasonable interest rate on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of Dividend Equivalents
or other amounts in respect of installment or deferred payments denominated in Shares.

 

(d) Exemptions
from Section 16(b) Liability. It is the intent of the Company that the grant of any Awards to or other transaction by
a Participant who is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act shall be exempt from Section 16 pursuant to an applicable exemption
(except for transactions acknowledged in writing to be non-exempt by such Participant). Accordingly, if any provision of this
Plan or any Award Agreement does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 then applicable to any such transaction, such
provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3
so that such Participant shall avoid liability under Section 16(b).

 

(e) Code
Section 409A.

 

(i)
The Award Agreement for any Award that the Committee reasonably determines to constitute a Section 409A Plan, as defined in Section
7(e)(ii) hereof, and the provisions of the Plan applicable to that Award, shall be construed in a manner consistent with the applicable
requirements of Section 409A, and the Committee, in its sole discretion and without the consent of any Participant, may amend
any Award Agreement (and the provisions of the Plan applicable thereto) if and to the extent that the Committee determines that
such amendment is necessary or appropriate to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

 

(ii)
If any Award constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” under Section 409A of the Code (a “Section
409A Plan”), then the Award shall be subject to the following additional requirements, if and to the extent required to
comply with Section 409A of the Code:

 

(A) Payments
under the Section 409A Plan may not be made earlier than the first to occur of (u) the Participant’s “separation from
service”, (v) the date the Participant becomes “disabled”, (w) the Participant’s death, (x) a “specified
time (or pursuant to a fixed schedule)” specified in the Award Agreement at the date of the deferral of such compensation,
(y) a “change in the ownership or effective control of the corporation, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of
the assets” of the Company, or (z) the occurrence of an “unforeseeble emergency”;

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(B) The
time or schedule for any payment of the deferred compensation may not be accelerated, except to the extent provided in applicable
Treasury Regulations or other applicable guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service;

 

(C) Any
elections with respect to the deferral of such compensation or the time and form of distribution of such deferred compensation
shall comply with the requirements of Section 409A(a)(4) of the Code; and

 

(D) In
the case of any Participant who is “specified employee”, a distribution on account of a “separation from service”
may not be made before the date which is six months after the date of the Participant’s “separation from service”
(or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death).

 

For purposes
of the foregoing, the terms in quotations shall have the same meanings as those terms have for purposes of Section 409A of the
Code, and the limitations set forth herein shall be applied in such manner (and only to the extent) as shall be necessary to comply
with any requirements of Section 409A of the Code that are applicable to the Award.

 

(iii)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement, the Company does not make any representation
to any Participant or Beneficiary that any Awards made pursuant to this Plan are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of,
Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Participant or any
Beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Participant or any Beneficiary may incur in the event
that any provision of this Plan, or any Award Agreement, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with
respect thereto, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.

  

8. Code Section 162(m) Provisions.

 

(a) Covered
Employees. Unless otherwise specified by the Committee, the provisions of this Section 8 shall be applicable to any Performance
Award granted to an Eligible Person who is, or is likely to be, as of the end of the tax year in which the Company would claim
a tax deduction in connection with such Award, a Covered Employee.

 

(b) Performance
Criteria. If a Performance Award is subject to this Section 8, then the payment or distribution thereof or the lapsing
of restrictions thereon and the distribution of cash, Shares or other property pursuant thereto, as applicable, shall be contingent
upon achievement of one or more objective performance goals. Performance goals shall be objective and shall otherwise meet the
requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder including the requirement that the level or levels of performance
targeted by the Committee result in the achievement of performance goals being “substantially uncertain.” One or more
of the following business criteria for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and/or for Related Entities, or for business or geographical
units of the Company and/or a Related Entity (except with respect to the total shareholder return and earnings per share criteria),
shall be used by the Committee in establishing performance goals for such Awards: (1) earnings per share; (2) revenues or margins;
(3) cash flow; (4) operating margin; (5) return on net assets, investment, capital, or equity; (6) economic value added; (7) direct
contribution; (8) net income; pretax earnings; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization; earnings after interest expense and before extraordinary or special items; operating income or income from operations;
income before interest income or expense, unusual items and income taxes, local, state or federal and excluding budgeted and actual
bonuses which might be paid under any ongoing bonus plans of the Company; (9) working capital; (10) management of fixed costs
or variable costs; (11) identification or consummation of investment opportunities or completion of specified projects in accordance
with corporate business plans, including strategic mergers, acquisitions or divestitures; (12) total shareholder return; (13)
debt reduction; (14) market share; (15) entry into new markets, either geographically or by business unit; (16) customer retention
and satisfaction; (17) strategic plan development and implementation, including turnaround plans; and/or (18) the Fair Market
Value of a Share. Any of the above goals may be determined on an absolute or relative basis or as compared to the performance
of a published or special index deemed applicable by the Committee including, but not limited to, the Standard & Poor’s
500 Stock Index or a group of companies that are comparable to the Company. In determining the achievement of the performance
goals, unless otherwise specified by the Committee at the time the performance goals are set, the Committee shall exclude the
impact of any (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items (as defined pursuant to generally accepted accounting
principles), and other unusual or non-recurring charges; (ii) change in accounting standards required by generally accepted accounting
principles; or (iii) such other exclusions or adjustments as the Committee specifies at the time the Award is granted.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(c) Performance
Period; Timing For Establishing Performance Goals. Achievement of performance goals in respect of Performance Awards shall
be measured over a Performance Period specified by the Committee. Performance goals shall be established not later than 90 days
after the beginning of any Performance Period applicable to such Performance Awards, or at such other date as may be required
or permitted for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

(d) Adjustments.
The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with Awards
subject to this Section 8, but may not exercise discretion to increase any such amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect
of an Award subject to this Section 8. The Committee shall specify the circumstances in which such Awards shall be paid or forfeited
in the event of termination of Continuous Service by the Participant prior to the end of a Performance Period or settlement of
Awards.

 

(e) Committee
Certification. No Participant shall receive any payment under the Plan that is subject to this Section 8 unless the Committee
has certified, by resolution or other appropriate action in writing, that the performance criteria and any other material terms
previously established by the Committee or set forth in the Plan, have been satisfied to the extent necessary to qualify as “performance
based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.

  

9. Change in Control.

 

(a) Effect
of “Change in Control.” If and only to the extent provided in any employment or other agreement between the
Participant and the Company or any Related Entity, or in any Award Agreement, or to the extent otherwise determined by the Committee
in its sole discretion and without any requirement that each Participant be treated consistently, upon the occurrence of a “Change
in Control,” as defined in Section 9(b):

 

(i)
Any Option or Stock Appreciation Right that was not previously vested and exercisable as of the time of the Change in Control,
shall become immediately vested and exercisable, subject to applicable restrictions set forth in Section 10(a) hereof.

 

(ii)
Any restrictions, deferral of settlement, and forfeiture conditions applicable to a Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit
Award or an Other Stock-Based Award subject only to future service requirements granted under the Plan shall lapse and such Awards
shall be deemed fully vested as of the time of the Change in Control, except to the extent of any waiver by the Participant and
subject to applicable restrictions set forth in Section 10(a) hereof.

 

(iii)
With respect to any outstanding Award subject to achievement of performance goals and conditions under the Plan, the Committee
may, in its discretion, deem such performance goals and conditions as having been met as of the date of the Change in Control.

 

(iv)
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision in any Award Agreement to the contrary, and unless the Committee otherwise determines
in a specific instance or as is provided in any employment or other agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Related
Entity, each outstanding Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based
Award shall not be accelerated as described in Sections 9(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), if either (A) the Company is the surviving entity
in the Change in Control and the Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other
Stock-Based Award continues to be outstanding after the Change in Control on the substantially same terms and conditions as were
applicable immediately prior to the Change in Control or (B) the successor company assumes or substitutes for the applicable Award,
as determined in accordance with Section 10(c)(ii) hereof.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(b) Definition
of “Change in Control”. A “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following:

 

(i)
The acquisition by any Person of Beneficial Ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of
more than fifty percent (50%) of either (A) the value of then outstanding equity securities of the Company (the “Outstanding
Company Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”) (the foregoing Beneficial Ownership
hereinafter being referred to as a “Controlling Interest”); provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 9(b),
the following acquisitions shall not constitute or result in a Change in Control: (w) any acquisition directly from the Company;
(x) any acquisition by the Company; (y) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained
by the Company or any Related Entity; or (z) any acquisition by any entity pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses
(A), (B) and (C) of subsection (ii) below; or

 

(ii)
Consummation of a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange or consolidation or similar transaction involving the Company
or any of its Related Entities, a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the acquisition
of assets or equity of another entity by the Company or any of its Related Entities (each a “Business Combination”),
in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were
the Beneficial Owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior
to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the value of the then
outstanding equity securities and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally
in the election of members of the board of directors (or comparable governing body of an entity that does not have such a board),
as the case may be, of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, an entity which as
a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through
one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination
of the Outstanding Company Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (excluding any employee
benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination or any Person that as of
the Effective Date owns Beneficial Ownership of a Controlling Interest) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent
(50%) or more of the value of the then outstanding equity securities of the entity resulting from such Business Combination or
the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such entity except to the extent that such ownership existed
prior to the Business Combination and (C) at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or other governing body
of the entity resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of the
initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination; or

 

(iii)
Approval by the shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

 

10. General Provisions.

 

(a) Compliance
With Legal and Other Requirements. The Company may, to the extent deemed necessary or advisable by the Committee, postpone
the issuance or delivery of Shares or payment of other benefits under any Award until completion of such registration or qualification
of such Shares or other required action under any federal or state law, rule or regulation, listing or other required action with
respect to the Listing Market, or compliance with any other obligation of the Company, as the Committee, may consider appropriate,
and may require any Participant to make such representations, furnish such information and comply with or be subject to such other
conditions as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of Shares or payment of other benefits in
compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations, listing requirements, or other obligations.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(b) Limits
on Transferability; Beneficiaries. No Award or other right or interest granted under the Plan shall be pledged, hypothecated
or otherwise encumbered or subject to any lien, obligation or liability of such Participant to any party, or assigned or transferred
by such Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or to a Beneficiary upon the death of a Participant,
and such Awards or rights that may be exercisable shall be exercised during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant
or his or her guardian or legal representative, except that Awards and other rights (other than Incentive Stock Options and Stock
Appreciation Rights in tandem therewith) may be transferred to one or more Beneficiaries or other transferees during the lifetime
of the Participant, and may be exercised by such transferees in accordance with the terms of such Award, but only if and to the
extent such transfers are permitted by the Committee pursuant to the express terms of an Award Agreement (subject to any terms
and conditions which the Committee may impose thereon). A Beneficiary, transferee, or other person claiming any rights under the
Plan from or through any Participant shall be subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable
to such Participant, except as otherwise determined by the Committee, and to any additional terms and conditions deemed necessary
or appropriate by the Committee.

 

(c) Adjustments.

 

(i)
Adjustments to Awards. In the event that any extraordinary dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of
cash, Shares, or other property), recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off,
combination, repurchase, share exchange, liquidation, dissolution or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the
Shares and/or such other securities of the Company or any other issuer, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem
equitable, substitute, exchange or adjust any or all of (A) the number and kind of Shares which may be delivered in connection
with Awards granted thereafter, (B) the number and kind of Shares by which annual per-person Award limitations are measured under
Section 4 hereof, (C) the number and kind of Shares subject to or deliverable in respect of outstanding Awards, (D) the exercise
price, grant price or purchase price relating to any Award and/or make provision for payment of cash or other property in respect
of any outstanding Award, and (E) any other aspect of any Award that the Committee determines to be appropriate.

 

(ii)
Adjustments in Case of Certain Transactions. In the event of any merger, consolidation or other reorganization in
which the Company does not survive, or in the event of any Change in Control, any outstanding Awards may be dealt with in accordance
with any of the following approaches, without the requirement of obtaining any consent or agreement of a Participant as such,
as determined by the agreement effectuating the transaction or, if and to the extent not so determined, as determined by the Committee:
(a) the continuation of the outstanding Awards by the Company, if the Company is a surviving entity, (b) the assumption or substitution
for, as those terms are defined below, the outstanding Awards by the surviving entity or its parent or subsidiary, (c) full exercisability
or vesting and accelerated expiration of the outstanding Awards, or (d) settlement of the value of the outstanding Awards in cash
or cash equivalents or other property followed by cancellation of such Awards (which value, in the case of Options or Stock Appreciation
Rights, shall be measured by the amount, if any, by which the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the exercise or grant price
of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right as of the effective date of the transaction). For the purposes of this Agreement, an
Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award shall be considered
assumed or substituted for if following the Change in Control the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share
subject to the Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award
immediately prior to the Change in Control, on substantially the same vesting and other terms and conditions as were applicable
to the Award immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property)
received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of
such transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a
majority of the outstanding shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the transaction constituting a
Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary, the Committee may, with the
consent of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary, provide that the consideration to be received upon the exercise
or vesting of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit Award or Other Stock-Based Award,
for each Share subject thereto, will be solely common stock of the successor company or its parent or subsidiary substantially
equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting a Change
in Control. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee in its sole
discretion and its determination shall be conclusive and binding. The Committee shall give written notice of any proposed transaction
referred to in this Section 10(c)(ii) at a reasonable period of time prior to the closing date for such transaction (which notice
may be given either before or after the approval of such transaction), in order that Participants may have a reasonable period
of time prior to the closing date of such transaction within which to exercise any Awards that are then exercisable (including
any Awards that may become exercisable upon the closing date of such transaction). A Participant may condition his exercise of
any Awards upon the consummation of the transaction.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(iii)
Other Adjustments. The Committee (and the Board if and only to the extent such authority is not required to be exercised
by the Committee to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code) is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of,
and the criteria included in, Awards (including Performance Awards, or performance goals and conditions relating thereto) in recognition
of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, acquisitions and dispositions of businesses and assets) affecting
the Company, any Related Entity or any business unit, or the financial statements of the Company or any Related Entity, or in
response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, accounting principles, tax rates and regulations or business conditions or
in view of the Committee’s assessment of the business strategy of the Company, any Related Entity or business unit thereof,
performance of comparable organizations, economic and business conditions, personal performance of a Participant, and any other
circumstances deemed relevant; provided that no such adjustment shall be authorized or made if and to the extent that such authority
or the making of such adjustment would cause Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Performance Awards granted pursuant to Section
8(b) hereof to Participants designated by the Committee as Covered Employees and intended to qualify as “performance-based
compensation” under Code Section 162(m) and the regulations thereunder to otherwise fail to qualify as “performance-based
compensation” under Code Section 162(m) and regulations thereunder. Adjustments permitted hereby may include, without limitation,
increasing the exercise price of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, increasing performance goals, or other adjustments that
may be adverse to the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments may be made with respect to any Performance Awards
subject to Section 8 if and to the extent that such adjustment would cause the Award to fail to qualify as “performance-based
compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code.

 

(d) Taxes.
The Company and any Related Entity are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, any payment relating to an Award
under the Plan, including from a distribution of Shares, or any payroll or other payment to a Participant, amounts of withholding
and other taxes due or potentially payable in connection with any transaction involving an Award, and to take such other action
as the Committee may deem advisable to enable the Company or any Related Entity and Participants to satisfy obligations for the
payment of withholding taxes and other tax obligations relating to any Award. This authority shall include authority to withhold
or receive Shares or other property and to make cash payments in respect thereof in satisfaction of a Participant’s tax
obligations, either on a mandatory or elective basis in the discretion of the Committee.

 

(e) Changes
to the Plan and Awards. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan, or the Committee’s
authority to grant Awards under the Plan, without the consent of shareholders or Participants, except that any amendment or alteration
to the Plan shall be subject to the approval of the Company’s shareholders not later than the annual meeting next following
such Board action if such shareholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation (including, without limitation,
Rule 16b-3 or Code Section 162(m)) or the rules of the Listing Market, and the Board may otherwise, in its discretion, determine
to submit other such changes to the Plan to shareholders for approval; provided that, except as otherwise permitted by the Plan
or Award Agreement, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Board action may materially and adversely affect the
rights of such Participant under the terms of any previously granted and outstanding Award. The Committee may waive any conditions
or rights under, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted and any Award Agreement relating
thereto, except as otherwise provided in the Plan; provided that, except as otherwise permitted by the Plan or Award Agreement,
without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Committee or the Board action may materially and adversely affect the
rights of such Participant under terms of such Award.

  

    	 

    	 

    

  

(f) Limitation
on Rights Conferred Under Plan. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder or under any Award shall be construed
as (i) giving any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Person or Participant or in the employ or
service of the Company or a Related Entity; (ii) interfering in any way with the right of the Company or a Related Entity to terminate
any Eligible Person’s or Participant’s Continuous Service at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Person or Participant
any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan or to be treated uniformly with other Participants and Employees, or (iv) conferring
on a Participant any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company including, without limitation, any right to receive dividends
or distributions, any right to vote or act by written consent, any right to attend meetings of shareholders or any right to receive
any information concerning the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation or prospects, unless and until
such time as the Participant is duly issued Shares on the stock books of the Company in accordance with the terms of an Award.
None of the Company, its officers or its directors shall have any fiduciary obligation to the Participant with respect to any
Awards unless and until the Participant is duly issued Shares pursuant to the Award on the stock books of the Company in accordance
with the terms of an Award. Neither the Company nor any of the Company’s officers, directors, representatives or agents
is granting any rights under the Plan to the Participant whatsoever, oral or written, express or implied, other than those rights
expressly set forth in this Plan or the Award Agreement.

 

(g) Unfunded
Status of Awards; Creation of Trusts. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive
and deferred compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant or obligation to deliver Shares pursuant
to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater
than those of a general creditor of the Company; provided that the Committee may authorize the creation of trusts and deposit
therein cash, Shares, other Awards or other property, or make other arrangements to meet the Company’s obligations under
the Plan. Such trusts or other arrangements shall be consistent with the “unfunded” status of the Plan unless the
Committee otherwise determines with the consent of each affected Participant. The trustee of such trusts may be authorized to
dispose of trust assets and reinvest the proceeds in alternative investments, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee
may specify and in accordance with applicable law.

 

(h) Nonexclusivity
of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor its submission to the shareholders of the Company for approval
shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or a committee thereof to adopt such other incentive
arrangements as it may deem desirable including incentive arrangements and awards which do not qualify under Section 162(m) of
the Code.

 

(i) Payments
in the Event of Forfeitures; Fractional Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a forfeiture
of an Award with respect to which a Participant paid cash or other consideration, the Participant shall be repaid the amount of
such cash or other consideration. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Award. The Committee
shall determine whether cash, other Awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such fractional shares or whether
such fractional shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

 

(j) Governing
Law. The validity, construction and effect of the Plan, any rules and regulations under the Plan, and any Award Agreement
shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws,
and applicable federal law.

 

(k) Non-U.S.
Laws. The Committee shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, procedures, and subplans as may be necessary
or desirable to comply with provisions of the laws of foreign countries in which the Company or its Related Entities may operate
to assure the viability of the benefits from Awards granted to Participants performing services in such countries and to meet
the objectives of the Plan.

  

(l) Plan
Effective Date and Shareholder Approval; Termination of Plan. The Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date, subject
to subsequent approval, within 12 months of its adoption by the Board, by shareholders of the Company eligible to vote in the
election of directors, by a vote sufficient to meet the requirements of Code Sections 162(m) (if applicable) and 422, Rule 16b-3
under the Exchange Act (if applicable), applicable requirements under the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system
on which the Shares may be listed or quoted, and other laws, regulations, and obligations of the Company applicable to the Plan.
Awards may be granted subject to shareholder approval, but may not be exercised or otherwise settled in the event the shareholder
approval is not obtained. The Plan shall terminate at the earliest of (a) such time as no Shares remain available for issuance
under the Plan, (b) termination of this Plan by the Board, or (c) the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Awards outstanding
upon expiration of the Plan shall remain in effect until they have been exercised or terminated, or have expired.anyi_ex41.htm
