The Plan 
 2.1 Name. This

2.2 Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and its shareholders by affording to Employees an
opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interest in the Company by the grant of Options to such Employees under the terms set forth herein. By encouraging such Employees to become owners of Stock of the Company, the Company seeks to

Company’s shareholders).

 ARTICLE III 

Plan Administration 
 3.1 Stock
Option Committee. This Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company or such other committee as the Board may from time to time determine (the “Stock Option Committee”). 

3.2 Power of the Stock Option Committee. The Stock Option Committee shall have full authority and discretion: (a) to determine,
consistent with the provisions of this Plan, which of the Employees will be granted Options to purchase any shares of Stock which may be issued and sold hereunder as provided in Section 4.1 hereof, the times at which Options shall be granted,
and the number of shares of Stock covered by each Option; (b) to determine the Option Price (subject to Section 5.2 hereof) and other terms and provisions of each respective Stock Option Agreement, which need not be identical; (c) to
determine whether the Options granted pursuant to this Plan shall be Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options; (d) to construe and interpret the Plan; and (e) to make all other determinations and take all other actions deemed
necessary or advisable for the proper administration of the Plan. All such actions and determinations shall be conclusively binding upon all persons for all purposes. Unless otherwise indicated by the Stock Option Committee, Options granted pursuant
to this Plan shall be Incentive Stock Options. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Shares of Stock Subject to Plan 

4.1 Limitations. Subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.3 hereof, the number of shares of Stock which may be
issued and sold hereunder pursuant to Stock Option Agreements shall not exceed Four Million Nine Hundred Thousand (4,900,000) shares. Shares subject to Options which terminate or expire prior to exercise shall be available for future Options.

 4.2 Options Granted Under Plan. Shares of Stock with respect to which an Option granted hereunder shall have been exercised shall
not again be available for Option hereunder. If Options granted hereunder shall terminate for any reason without being wholly exercised, then the Stock Option Committee shall have the discretion to grant new Options to Optionees hereunder covering
the number of shares to which such terminated Options related. 
 4.3 Stock Adjustments; Mergers. Notwithstanding Section 4.1,
in the event the outstanding shares of Stock are increased or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of any other corporation by reason of any merger, sale of stock,
consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split up, combination of shares, or stock dividend, the total number of shares set forth in Section 4.1 shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted by the Board.

 
If the Company continues in existence, the number and kind of shares that are subject to any Option and the Option Price per share shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted without any
change in the aggregate price to be paid therefor upon exercise of the Option. If the Company will not remain in existence or a majority of its Stock will be purchased or acquired by a single purchaser or group of purchasers acting together, then
the Board may (i) declare that all Options shall terminate 30 days after the Board gives written notice to all Optionees of their immediate right to exercise all Options then outstanding (without regard to limitations on exercise otherwise
contained in the Options), or (ii) notify all Optionees that all Options granted under the Plan shall apply with appropriate adjustments as determined by the Board to the securities of the successor corporation to which holders of the numbers
of shares subject to such Options would have been entitled, or (iii) some combination of aspects of (i) and (ii). The determination by the Board as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding. Any
fractional shares resulting from any of the foregoing adjustments under this section shall be disregarded and eliminated. 
 4.4 Change
of Control. Upon a Change of Control, all Options granted under the Plan shall become exercisable immediately notwithstanding the provisions of the respective Option agreements regarding exercisability. 

ARTICLE V 
 Options 

5.1 Option Grant and Agreement. Each Option granted hereunder shall be evidenced by minutes of a meeting of the Stock Option Committee
authorizing the same and by a written Stock Option Agreement dated as of the date of grant and executed by the Company and the Optionee, which Stock Option Agreement shall set forth such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Stock Option
Committee to be consistent with the Plan and shall indicate whether the Option that it evidences is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 

5.2 Option Price. The Option Price of each share of Stock subject to Option shall not be less than the fair market value of the Stock on
the date of grant. If the Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“NMS”) at the date of grant, then the fair market value of the Stock on the date of grant shall be equal to the closing
price of such Stock as quoted on such exchange or market as of the trading day immediately preceding the effective date of such grant. If the Stock is not traded on a national securities exchange or the NMS at the date of grant, then the fair market
value of the Stock on the date of grant shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors using any reasonable method, which shall include consideration of market quotations to the extent available. 

5.3 Option Exercise. Options may be exercised in whole or in part from time to time with respect to whole shares only, within the
period permitted for the exercise thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no option granted under the Plan may be exercised more than ten (10) years after the date on which it is granted. Options shall be

 
exercised by: (i) written notice of intent to exercise the Option with respect to a specific number of shares of Stock which is delivered by hand delivery or registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, to the Company at its principal office; and (ii) payment in full to the Company at such office of the amount of the Option Price for the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is then being
exercised. Payment of the Option Price shall be made in cash, certified check, cashier’s check, or personal check (and if made by personal check the shares of Stock issued upon exercise of the Option shall be held by the Company until the check
has cleared); provided, however, that if at the time of exercise of the Option the Stock is traded on a national securities exchange or on the NMS, all or part of the Option Price may also be paid by delivery to the Company of shares of Stock
previously acquired by the Optionee (provided the exercise of such Option through this “cashless” feature is in accordance with applicable federal and state securities laws), which shall be valued for such purpose at the closing price of
such Stock as quoted on such exchange or market as of the trading day immediately preceding the date of exercise. In addition to and at the time of payment of the Option Price, the Optionee shall, if and to the extent requested by the Company, pay
to the Company in cash the full amount of all federal, state, and local withholding or other employment taxes, if any, applicable to the taxable income of the Optionee resulting from such exercise, and any sales, transfer, or similar taxes imposed
with respect to the issuance or transfer of shares of Stock in connection with such exercise. 
 5.4 Nontransferability of Option. No
Option shall be transferred by an Optionee otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or the
rules thereunder (a “Qualified Domestic Order”). During the lifetime of an Optionee, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Optionee or the Optionee’s legal guardian or personal representative. 

5.5 Effect of Death, Disability, Retirement, or Other Termination of Service. 

 

	 	(a)	If an Optionee’s Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated for “cause,” as defined in Section 5.5(b) hereof, then no Options held by such Optionee, which are unexercised in
whole or in part, may be exercised on or after the date on which such Optionee is first notified in writing by the Company of such termination for cause. 

  

	 	(b)	For purposes of this Section 5.5, termination for “cause” shall mean termination for the Optionee’s personal dishonesty, incompetence, willful misconduct, breach of fiduciary duty, violation of any
law, rule, or regulation (other than traffic violations or similar offenses) affecting the Company or its Subsidiaries, violation of any agreement or order with any bank regulatory agency, failure by the Optionee to perform Optionee’s stated
duties with the Company or its Subsidiaries, or such other circumstances as the Company and/or its Subsidiaries determines as resulting in the Optionee’s termination of employment for “cause.” 

	 	(c)	If an Optionee’s Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated for any reason other than for cause (as defined in Section 5.5(b) hereof) and other than retirement at or after age sixty-five
(65) or the disability (as defined in Section 5.5(f) hereof) or death of the Optionee, then no Options held by such Optionee which are unexercised in whole or in part may be exercised on or after the effective date of such termination.

  

	 	(d)	If an Optionee’s Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated by reason of retirement at or after age sixty-five (65), then the Optionee shall have the right to exercise the Optionee’s
Options for ninety (90) days after the date of such termination, but only to the extent that such Options were exercisable at the date of such termination; provided, however, that the Stock Option Committee may, but shall not be
obligated to, allow such Optionee to exercise within such time any or all of the Options, if any, held by the Optionee which would not yet otherwise be exercisable. 

 

	 	(e)	If an Optionee’s Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated by reason of the death or disability (as defined in Section 5.5(f) hereof) of the Optionee, then the personal representative
or administrator of the estate of the Optionee or the person or persons to whom an Option granted hereunder shall have been validly transferred by the personal representative or administrator pursuant to the Optionee’s will or the laws of
descent and distribution, as the case may be, shall have the right to exercise the Optionee’s Options for ninety (90) days after the date of such termination, but only to the extent that such Options were exercisable at the date of such
termination; provided, however, that the Stock Option Committee may, but shall not be obligated to, allow such Optionee to exercise within such time any or all of the Options, if any, held by the Optionee which would not yet otherwise be
exercisable. 

  

	 	(f)	For purposes of this Section 5.5, the terms “disability” and “disabled” shall have the meaning set forth in the principal disability insurance policy or similar program then maintained by the
Company on behalf of Employees or, if no such policy or program is then in existence, the meaning then used by the United States Government in determining persons eligible to receive disability payments under the social security system of the United
States. 

  

	 	(g)	No transfer of an Option by the Optionee by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or a Qualified Domestic Order shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Company shall have been furnished with written
notice thereof and an authenticated copy of the will or the Qualified Domestic Order and/or such other evidence as the Company may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the
terms and conditions of such Option. 

 5.6 Rights as Shareholder. An Optionee or a transferee of an Option shall have no rights
as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Stock subject to such Option prior to the purchase of such shares by exercise of such Option as provided herein. 

5.7 Investment Intent. Upon or prior to the exercise of all or any portion of an Option, the Optionee shall furnish to the Company in
writing such information or assurances as, in the Company’s opinion, may be necessary to enable it to comply fully with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder and any other applicable statutes, rules,
and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, if a registration statement is not in effect under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the shares of Stock to be issued upon exercise of an Option, the Company shall have the right
to require, as a condition to the exercise of such Option, that the Optionee represent to the Company in writing that the shares to be received upon exercise of such Option will be acquired by the Optionee for investment and not with a view to
distribution and that the Optionee agree, in writing, that such shares will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration statement, unless the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to it to the
effect that such disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company shall have the right to endorse on certificates representing shares of Stock issued upon exercise of an Option such
legends referring to the foregoing representations and restrictions or any other applicable restrictions on resale or disposition as the Company, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate. 

ARTICLE VI 
 Incentive Stock
Options 
 6.1 Requirements. All Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the terms of this Plan shall be subject to the additional
limitations and restrictions as set forth in the Code and in this Article VI. Any Option granted pursuant to this Plan which does not fulfill all of the provisions of this Article VI shall not be an Incentive Stock Option and thus shall be a
Nonstatutory Stock Option. 
 6.2 Grant Period. All Incentive Stock Options granted hereunder must be granted within ten
(10) years from the Effective Date set forth in Section 2.3 which represents the earlier of: (a) the date the Plan was adopted by the Board; or (b) the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company. 

6.3 Eligibility. The Stock Option Committee shall determine which Employees shall receive Incentive Stock Options. No member of the
Stock Option Committee shall be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may not be granted to any Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of
the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company unless: 

 (a) such Incentive Stock Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from
the date of its grant; and (b) the Option Price of the shares covered by such Incentive Stock Option is not less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the fair market value of such shares on the date that such Incentive Stock Option
is granted. 
 6.4 Special Rule Regarding Exercisability. If, for any reason, any Option granted hereunder which is intended to be an
Incentive Stock Option shall exceed the limitation on exercisability contained in the Code at any time, such Options shall nevertheless be exercisable, but: (a) any exercise of such Option shall be deemed to be an exercise of an Incentive Stock
Option first until the portion of such Option qualifying as an Incentive Stock Option shall have been exercised in full; and (b) the portion of such Option in excess of the foregoing limitation on exercisability shall be deemed to be a
Nonstatutory Stock Option. 
 ARTICLE VII 

Nonstatutory Stock Options 
 The
Stock Option Committee may grant Nonstatutory Stock Options under this Plan. Such Nonstatutory Stock Options must fulfill all of the requirements of all provisions of this Plan except for those contained in Article VI hereof. Subject to the approval
and acceptance of the Stock Option Committee in its discretion, any Employee who is granted a Nonstatutory Stock Option pursuant to this Plan shall be entitled to elect to surrender all or any part of such Nonstatutory Stock Option to the Company
and receive, in exchange, an Incentive Stock Option covering the same number of shares as those with respect to which the Nonstatutory Stock Option was surrendered. Any such election shall be valid and effective only upon its approval and acceptance
by the Stock Option Committee, which may impose additional terms as a condition to its approval. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

Stock Certificates 
 The Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for shares of Stock purchased upon the exercise of any Option granted hereunder or of any portion thereof, prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

(a) The admission of such shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which the Stock is then listed, if any; 

(b) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any federal or state law or under the rulings or
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory agency, which the Company shall in its sole discretion determine to be necessary or advisable; 

 (c) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any federal or state governmental
agency which the Company shall in its sole discretion determine to be necessary or advisable; and 
 (d) The lapse of such reasonable period
of time following the exercise of the Option as the Company from time to time may establish for reasons of administrative convenience. 

ARTICLE IX 
 Termination,
Amendment, and Modification of Plan 
 The Board may at any time terminate, and may at any time and from time to time and in any respect
amend or modify, the Plan; provided, however, that no such action of the Board without approval of the shareholders of the Company may increase the total number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan except as contemplated in Section 4.3
hereof or alter the class of persons eligible to receive Options under the Plan, and provided further that no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall without the written consent of the Optionee of such Option adversely affect the
rights of the Optionee with respect to an outstanding Option or the unexercised portion thereof. 
 ARTICLE X 

Miscellaneous 
 10.1 Continued
Employment Not Presumed. This Plan and any document describing this Plan and the grant of any Option hereunder shall not give any Optionee or other employee a right to continued employment by the Company or its Subsidiaries or affect the right
of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment of any such person with or without cause. 
 10.2 Other Compensation
Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other stock option or incentive or other compensation plans in effect for the Company or its Subsidiaries, nor shall the Plan preclude the Company or its Subsidiaries from establishing any
other forms of incentive or other compensation for directors, officers, or employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries. 
 10.3 Plan
Binding on Successors. The Plan shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. 
 10.4 Singular, Plural;
Gender. Whenever used herein, nouns in the singular shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine gender. 

10.5 Applicable Law. This Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. 

 10.6 Headings, etc., No Part of Plan. Headings of Articles and Sections hereof are
inserted for convenience and reference; they constitute no part of the Plan. 
 10.7 Compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) do not apply to any Optionee. This Plan shall be administered in
a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be
retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of any Optionee). 

10.7 Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Plan shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity,
legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

obligated to, allow such Optionee to exercise within such time any or all of the Options, if any, held by the Optionee which would not yet otherwise be exercisable. 

 

	 	(e)	 If an Optionee’s Service with the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be terminated by reason of the death or disability (as defined in
Section 4.4(f) hereof) of the Optionee, then the personal representative or administrator of the estate of the Optionee or the person or persons to whom an Option granted hereunder shall have been validly transferred by the personal

	 	
representative or administrator pursuant to the Optionee’s will or the laws of descent and distribution, as the case may be, shall have the right to exercise the Optionee’s Options for
ninety (90) days after the date of such termination, but only to the extent that such Options were exercisable at the date of such termination; provided, however, that the Stock Option Committee may, but shall not be obligated to, allow
such Optionee to exercise within such time any or all of the Options, if any, held by the Optionee which would not yet otherwise be exercisable. 

  

	 	(f)	For purposes of this Section 4.4, the terms “disability” and “disabled” shall have the meaning set forth in the principal disability insurance policy or similar program then maintained by the
Company on behalf of Employees or, if no such policy or program is then in existence, the meaning then used by the United States Government in determining persons eligible to receive disability payments under the social security system of the United
States. 

  

	 	(g)	No transfer of an Option by the Optionee by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or a Qualified Domestic Order shall be effective to bind the Company unless the Company shall have been furnished with written
notice thereof and an authenticated copy of the will or the Qualified Domestic Order and/or such other evidence as the Company may deem necessary to establish the validity of the transfer and the acceptance by the transferee or transferees of the
terms and conditions of such Option. 

 4.5 Rights as Shareholder. The Optionee or a transferee of the Option shall
have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Stock subject to the Option prior to the purchase of such shares by exercise of the Option as provided herein. 

4.6 Optionee’s Intent as to Stock Acquired by Exercise of Option. The Optionee agrees that, upon or prior to the exercise of all
or any portion of the Option, the Optionee shall furnish to the Company in writing such information or assurances as, in the Company’s opinion, may be necessary to enable it to comply fully with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the
rules and regulations thereunder and any other applicable statutes, rules, and regulations. Without limiting the foregoing, if a registration statement is not in effect under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the shares of
Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Option, the Optionee further agrees that the Company shall have the right to require, as a condition to the exercise of the Option, that the Optionee represent to the Company in writing that the shares to be
received upon exercise of the Option will be acquired by the Optionee for investment and not with a view to distribution and that the Optionee agree, in writing, that such shares will not be disposed of except pursuant to an effective registration
statement, unless the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to it to the effect that such disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Optionee understands
and agrees that the Company shall have the right to endorse on certificates representing shares of Stock issued upon exercise of the Option such legends referring to the foregoing representations and restrictions or any other applicable restrictions
on resale or disposition as the Company, in its discretion, shall deem appropriate. 

 ARTICLE V 

Incentive Stock Option 
 5.1
Additional Restrictions and Limitations on the Option; General. The Option granted pursuant to this Agreement shall, in order to qualify under the Code as an Incentive Stock Option, comply with all of the restrictions and limitations set
forth in the Code, as the same may from time to time be amended. If the Option does not fulfill all of the provisions of the Code, then the Option shall not be an Incentive Stock Option but rather shall be a Nonstatutory Stock Option. 

ARTICLE VI 
 Stock Certificates

 The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate for shares of Stock purchased upon the exercise of the Option
granted hereunder or any portion thereof, prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 
  

	 	(a)	The admission of such shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which the Stock is then listed, if any; 

  

	 	(b)	The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any federal or state law or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory
agency, which the Company shall in its sole discretion determine to be necessary or advisable; 

  

	 	(c)	The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any federal or state governmental agency which the Company shall in its sole discretion determine to be necessary or advisable; and 

 

	 	(d)	The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the Company from time to time may establish for reasons of administrative convenience. 

 ARTICLE VII 

Termination, Amendment, and Modification of Plan 

The Board may at any time terminate, and may at any time and from time to time and in any respect amend or modify, the Plan; provided,
however, that no such action of the Board without approval of the shareholders of the Company may increase the total number of shares of Stock subject to the Plan except as contemplated in Section 4.3 of the Plan or alter the class of
persons eligible to receive Options under the Plan, and provided further that no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall without the written consent of the Optionee adversely affect the rights of the Optionee with respect to the
Option granted hereunder or the unexercised portion thereof. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

Miscellaneous 
 8.1
Service. Nothing in this Agreement or the Option shall confer upon Optionee the right to continue in the Service of the Company or its subsidiaries. 

8.2 Other Compensation Plans. The adoption of the Plan and the execution of this Agreement shall not affect any other stock option or
incentive or other compensation plans in effect for the Company or its subsidiaries, nor shall the Plan or this Agreement preclude the Company or the Bank from establishing any other forms of incentive or other compensation for directors, officers,
or employees of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries. 
 8.3 Agreement Binding on Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon the
successors and assigns of the Company and the Optionee. 
 8.4 Singular, Plural; Gender. Whenever used herein, nouns in the singular
shall include the plural, and the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine gender. 
 8.5 Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. 
 8.6 Headings. Headings of Articles and Sections
hereof are inserted for convenience and reference only; they constitute no part of this Agreement. 
 8.7 Severability. If any
provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

8.8 Notices. Unless otherwise specified herein, notices required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the principal office of the Company, Attention: Corporate Secretary (if notice is to the Company) and to the Optionee at the Optionee’s address set forth below (if notice is
to the Optionee), or to such other person or such other address as any such party may designate by like notice to the other party, and shall be deemed given as of the date and time received. 

 8.9 Compliance with Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is
intended that the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, so that the income inclusion provisions of Section 409A(a)(1) do not apply to the Optionee. The Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this
intent, and any provision that would cause the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force and effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent
permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of any Optionee). The Option shall be subject to the foregoing provisions. 

8.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be considered
an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 8.11 Subject to Plan. The issuance of the
Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have set forth their hands and
seals. 
 Dated the date first above written.
