 ARTICLE 8 

CONFIDENTIALITY 
 8.1
Confidentiality; Exceptions. Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the Parties agree that the receiving Party shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise
disclose or use for any purpose other than as contemplated by this Agreement any confidential or proprietary information or materials furnished to it by the other Party pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Confidential
Information”); provided that each Transferred Asset and all data generated from Durect’s performance of the Durect Development Responsibilities shall be deemed the Confidential Information of Impax, regardless of whether it satisfies
the exclusions in Sections 8.1.1 and 8.1.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not be deemed to include information or materials to the extent that it can be established by written documentation by the receiving Party
that such information or material: 
 8.1.1 was already known to or possessed by the receiving Party without any obligation of
confidentiality, at the time of its disclosure to the receiving Party hereunder; 
 8.1.2 was generally available to the public or otherwise
part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the receiving Party hereunder; 
 8.1.3 became generally available to the public
or otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure hereunder other than through any act or omission of the receiving Party in breach of this Agreement; 

8.1.4 was independently developed by the receiving Party without use of or reference to the other Party’s Confidential Information as
demonstrated by documented evidence prepared by the receiving Party contemporaneously with such independent development; or 
 8.1.5 was
disclosed to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, by a Third Party who had no obligation to the disclosing Party not to disclose such information to others. 

8.2 Authorized Use and Disclosure. Each Party may use and disclose Confidential Information of the other Party as follows:
(i) under appropriate confidentiality provisions substantially equivalent to those in this Agreement in connection with the performance of its obligations or exercise of rights granted to such Party in this Agreement; (ii) to the extent
such disclosure is reasonably necessary for any of the following: (a) the Prosecution and Maintenance of Patents (including applications therefor) in accordance with this Agreement, (b) complying with the terms of agreements with Third
Parties pursuant to which it Controls Licensed Technology, (c) prosecuting or defending litigation, (d) complying with applicable governmental regulations, (e) conducting preclinical or clinical trials, filing for, obtaining and
maintaining regulatory approvals (including Marketing Approvals), or (f) otherwise required by Applicable Laws or the rules of a recognized stock exchange, provided, however, that if a Party is required by Applicable Laws or stock exchange to

Party’s Confidential Information it will, except where impracticable for necessary disclosures (for example, in the event of medical emergency), give reasonable advance notice to the other
Party of such disclosure requirement and will use its reasonable efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information required to be disclosed; (iii) in communication with existing and potential investors, acquirers,
lenders, consultants, advisors (including financial advisors, lawyers and accountants) and, in the case of Impax, potential and actual licensees, collaborators or service providers on a need to know basis, in each case under appropriate
confidentiality provisions substantially equivalent to those of this Agreement; or (iv) to the extent mutually agreed to by the Parties. 

8.3 Prior Agreements. The Confidentiality Agreement between Durect and Impax dated [* * *] (the “Prior CDA”) is
terminated as of the Effective Date and neither Party shall have any obligations thereunder after the Effective Date. All information or materials disclosed or provided by Durect to Impax under the Prior CDA (excluding Transferred Assets) shall be
deemed Confidential Information of Durect (subject to the exceptions set forth herein) and shall be subject to Impax’s confidentiality obligations under this Article 8. All information disclosed by Impax to Durect under the Prior CDA shall
be deemed Confidential Information of Impax (subject to the exceptions set forth herein) and shall be subject to Durect’s confidentiality obligations under this Article 8. 

8.4 Scientific Publications. Durect shall not have the right to publish or otherwise publicly disclose any clinical or scientific
results to the extent specifically relating to any Product. Impax shall submit to Durect any proposed publication or public disclosure containing clinical or scientific results relating to Product in the Field at least [* * *] days in advance to
allow Durect to review such proposed publication or disclosure. Durect shall notify Impax in writing during such [* * *] reviewing period if Durect wishes to remove its Confidential Information from such proposed publication or presentation, in
which event Impax shall remove such Confidential Information from its proposed publication or presentation. In the event Durect notifies Impax within such [* * *] reviewing period that the proposed publication or presentation discloses any
patentable invention that is a [* * *] or [* * *], such publication or presentation shall be delayed for a period of no more than [* * *] to allow the filing of patent applications protecting such patentable invention in accordance with
Section 7.3. For clarity, if Durect fails to notify Impax during the [* * *] reviewing period as provided under this Section 8.4, Impax shall be free to proceed with the proposed publication or presentation. 

8.5 Publicity. 
 8.5.1
Confidential Terms. Each of the Parties agrees not to disclose to any Third Party the terms and conditions of this Agreement without the prior approval of the other Party, except (a) to advisors (including consultants, financial
advisors, attorneys and accountants), potential and existing investors, acquirers and lenders and in the case of Impax, potential and actual licensees, collaborators and service providers, on a need to know basis, in each case under circumstances
that reasonably protect the confidentiality thereof, or (b) to the extent required by Applicable Law, including securities laws, provided that it requests confidential treatment of the commercial terms and sensitive technical terms hereof to
the extent such confidential treatment is reasonably available

to such Party. In the event of any such filing under clause (b) above, the filing Party will provide the other Party with a copy of this Agreement marked to show provisions for which such
Party intends to seek confidential treatment and shall reasonably consider the other Party’s reasonable comments thereon to the extent consistent with the legal requirements, with respect to the filing Party, governing disclosure of material
agreements and material information that must be publicly filed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree upon a joint press release to announce the execution of this Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 8.5.1; thereafter,
Durect and Impax may each disclose to Third Parties the information contained in such press release without the need for further approval by the other. 

8.5.2 Publicity Review. After release of the initial joint press release, if either Party desires to make a public announcement
regarding activities under this Agreement, such Party may make such disclosures from time to time with the approval of the other Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Such disclosures may include
achievement of significant events in the Development (including regulatory process and occurrence of Development Milestone Events) or Commercialization of Product in the Field hereunder. Unless otherwise requested by Durect, Impax shall use
reasonable efforts to indicate in each press release disclosing significant Development and Commercialization events for Product in the Field that Durect is the owner and licensor of Product and Licensed Technology, and will consider Durect’s
request to so indicate in any other public disclosure issued by Impax regarding Product. When a Party elects to make any such public disclosure under this Section 8.5.2, it will give the other Party reasonable notice, to the extent practicable,
to review and comment on such statement, it being understood that if the reviewing Party does not notify the requesting Party in writing within [* * *] or such shorter period if required by Applicable Laws of any reasonable objections, as
contemplated in this Section 8.5.2, such disclosure shall be deemed approved, and in any event the reviewing Party shall work diligently and reasonably to agree on the text of any proposed disclosure in an expeditious manner. The principles to
be observed in such disclosures shall be accuracy, compliance with Applicable Laws and regulatory guidance documents, reasonable sensitivity to potential negative reactions of applicable Regulatory Authorities and the need to keep investors and
others informed regarding the requesting Party’s business, including as required by the rules of a recognized stock exchange. Accordingly, the reviewing Party shall not withhold, condition or delay its approval of a proposed disclosure that
complies with such principles.

“Challenge”), Durect will have the right, subject to this Section 10.4, to immediately terminate Impax’s license and sublicense under Section 4.1 with respect to such Licensed Patent. Impax or its Affiliate shall
notify Durect at least [* * *] prior to initiating a Challenge. [* * *]. 
 10.5 General Effects of Expiration or Termination. 

10.5.1 Accrued Obligations. Expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not release either Party of any obligation
or liability which, at the time of such expiration or termination, has already accrued to the other Party or which is attributable to a period prior to such expiration or termination. 

10.5.2 Non-Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, termination of this Agreement by a Party shall be without
prejudice to other remedies such Party may have at law or equity. 
 10.5.3 General Survival. Articles 1, 8, 11 and 12 and
Sections 2.1, 2.8, 4.2, 6.5, 6.6, 6.7, 7.1, 7.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6, 10.1, 10.4, 10.6 and 10.7 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 10, all rights and
obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall terminate upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason. 
 10.6
Additional Effects of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Sections 10.2, 10.3 or 10.4, then: 
 10.6.1
Reversion of Rights. All rights and licenses granted by Durect to Impax under this Agreement shall revert back to Durect. Impax shall execute a bill of sale, and the Parties shall execute an assignment and assumption agreement, to effect the
assignment of Transferred Assets back to Durect, in each case substantially in the form as the Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement attached to this Agreement, but with the roles of the Parties reversed. In the event this Agreement
is terminated pursuant to Sections 10.2 or 10.4, or terminated pursuant to Section 10.3 [* * *], Durect shall not be required to pay any consideration to Impax under Section 10.6 (except as otherwise expressly provided in
Section 10.6.6). [* * *]. 
 10.6.2 Ongoing Trials. If there are any ongoing clinical trials with respect to Product being

trials and the activities related to or supporting such trials or (ii) terminate such clinical trials (subject to any medically appropriate wind-down); in each case as reasonably requested by Durect. [* * *].

 10.6.3 Regulatory Filings. Impax shall promptly assign and transfer to Durect all
Regulatory Filings for Product that are held or controlled by or under authority of Impax or its Affiliates or, subject to Section 10.6.5, its Sublicensees, and shall take such actions and execute such other instruments, assignments and
documents as may be necessary to effect the transfer of rights under the Regulatory Filings to Durect. Impax shall cause each of its Affiliates and, subject to Section 10.6.5, its Sublicensees to transfer any such Regulatory Filings to Durect
if this Agreement terminates. If Applicable Laws prevent or delay the transfer of ownership of a Regulatory Filing to Durect, Impax shall grant, and does hereby grant, to Durect an exclusive and irrevocable right of access and reference to such
Regulatory Filing for Product, and shall cooperate fully to make the benefits of such Regulatory Filings available to Durect and/or its designee(s). 

10.6.4 Technology and Trademark Licenses. Impax hereby grants Durect a non-exclusive, worldwide, irrevocable, fully paid-up,
royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under (i) any Patent Controlled by Impax or its Affiliates Covering Product that was Developed or Commercialized by or under authority of Impax; [* * *]. Within [* * *] after effectiveness of
termination, Impax shall provide to Durect copies of all such preclinical and clinical data (including raw data, original records, investigator reports, both preliminary and final, statistical analyses, expert opinions and reports, safety and other
electronic databases) and other Know-How pertaining to Product, or the manufacture thereof, generated by Impax and not previously provided to Durect. 

10.6.5 Sublicensees. Impax’s Sublicensees shall, at the request of Impax, receive license and other rights directly from Durect
upon termination of this Agreement so as to maintain their pre-termination rights with respect to Product; provided that (i) each such Sublicensee is in compliance with its obligations under the applicable sublicense as of the date of
termination of this Agreement, and (ii) Durect shall receive the same compensation with respect to each such Sublicensee’s activities under the applicable sublicense as if this Agreement had not terminated. 

10.6.6 Transition Assistance. Impax agrees to reasonably cooperate with Durect and its designee(s) to facilitate a smooth, orderly and
prompt transition of the Development and Commercialization of Product to Durect and/or its designee(s) during the notice period (if terminated pursuant to the first sentence of Section 10.2) and a [* * *] period after the effective date of
termination, which may be extended for up to another [* * *] upon Durect’s written request (collectively, the “Transition Period”), provided that (i) the Parties shall use reasonable efforts to complete such
transition prior to the expiration of the initial [* * *] period without such extension, and (ii) if Durect requests for such extension, [* * *]. Upon request by Durect within [* * *] after the effectiveness of termination, Impax shall transfer
to Durect some or all quantities of Product in its or its Affiliates’ Control; provided, however, that Durect shall reimburse Impax for its actual costs to manufacture or otherwise acquire the quantities so provided to Durect. If any
Product was manufactured by any Third Party for Impax, or Impax had contracts with vendors which contracts are specific to Product and necessary or useful for Durect to take over responsibility for Product in the Territory, then Impax shall to the
extent possible and requested in writing by Durect, assign all of the relevant Third-Party contracts to Durect, and in any case, Impax agrees to cooperate with Durect

to facilitate uninterrupted supply of Product. If Impax or its Affiliate manufactured any Product at the time of termination, then Impax (or its Affiliate) shall continue to provide for
manufacturing of such Product for Durect, at its fully-burdened manufacturing cost therefor, from the effectiveness of such termination until such time as Durect is able, using Commercially Reasonable Efforts, to secure an acceptable alternative
commercial manufacturing source from which sufficient quantities of Product may be procured and legally sold in the Territory, but no longer than the Transition Period. 

10.6.7 Costs and Expenses. Except as expressly provided herein, [* * *]. 

10.7 Termination Press Releases. In the event of termination of this Agreement for any reason, the Parties shall cooperate in good
faith to coordinate public disclosure of such termination and the reasons therefor, and shall not, except to the extent required by Applicable Laws or the rules of a recognized stock exchange, disclose such information without the prior approval of
the other Party, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. To the extent possible under the situation, the terminating Party shall provide the non-terminating Party with a draft of any such public disclosure it intends
to issue [* * *] in advance and with the opportunity to review and comment on such statement, it being understood that if the non-terminating Party does not notify the terminating Party in writing within such [* * *] period (or such shorter period
if required by Applicable Laws or the rules of a recognized stock exchange) of any reasonable objections, such disclosure shall be deemed approved, and in any event the Parties shall work diligently and reasonably to agree on the text of any such
proposed disclosure in an expeditious manner. The principles to be observed in such disclosures shall be accuracy, compliance with Applicable Laws and regulatory guidance documents, reasonable sensitivity to potential negative reactions to such news
and the need to keep investors and others informed regarding the Parties’ business and other activities. Accordingly in such situation, the non-terminating Party shall not withhold, condition or delay its approval of a proposed disclosure that
complies with such principles.

 12.5 Waiver. Neither Party may waive or release any of its rights or interests in this Agreement except
in writing. The failure of either Party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse a similar subsequent failure to perform any such term
or condition. No waiver by either Party of any condition or term in any one or more instances shall be construed as a continuing waiver of such condition or term or of another condition or term. 

12.6 Severability. If any provision hereof should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the Parties shall
negotiate in good faith a valid, legal and enforceable substitute provision that most nearly reflects the original intent of the Parties and all other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be
liberally construed in order to carry out the intentions of the Parties as nearly as may be possible. Such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 
 12.7 Entire Agreement/Modification. This Agreement, including its Exhibits, sets forth all the covenants, promises,
agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and terminates all prior agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such
subject matter, including the Prior CDA. No subsequent alteration, amendment, change or addition to this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties unless reduced to writing and signed by the respective authorized officers of the Parties.

 12.8 Relationship of the Parties. The Parties agree that the relationship of Durect
and Impax established by this Agreement is that of independent contractors. Furthermore, the Parties agree that this Agreement does not, is not intended to, and shall not be construed to, establish an employment, agency or any other relationship.
Except as may be specifically provided herein, neither Party shall have any right, power or authority, nor shall they represent themselves as having any authority to assume, create or incur any expense, liability or obligation, express or implied,
on behalf of the other Party, or otherwise act as an agent for the other Party for any purpose. 
 12.9 Force Majeure. Except with
respect to payment of money, neither Party shall be liable to the other for failure or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement for the time and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by earthquake, riot, civil
commotion, war, terrorist acts, strike, flood, bankruptcy of any Product manufacturer or supplier or governmental acts or restriction, or other cause that is beyond the reasonable control of the respective Party. The Party affected by such force
majeure will provide the other Party with full particulars thereof as soon as it becomes aware of the same (including its best estimate of the likely extent and duration of the interference with its activities), and will use commercially reasonable
efforts to overcome the difficulties created thereby and to resume performance of its obligations as soon as practicable. If the performance of any such obligation under this Agreement is delayed owing to such a force majeure for any continuous
period of more than [* * *], the Parties will consult with respect to an equitable solution. 
 12.10 Compliance with
Laws/Other. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all rights and obligations of Durect and Impax are subject to prior compliance with, and each Party shall comply with, all Applicable Laws, including obtaining all
necessary approvals required by the applicable agencies of the governments of the United States and foreign jurisdictions. In addition, each Party shall conduct its activities under this Agreement in accordance with good scientific and business
practices. 
 12.11 Performance by Affiliates. Each Party may discharge any obligations and exercise any right hereunder through any
of its Affiliates. Each Party hereby guarantees the performance by its Affiliates of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement, and shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement in connection with such
performance. Any breach by a Party’s Affiliate of any of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement shall be deemed a breach by such Party, and the other Party may proceed directly against such Party without any obligation to first
proceed against such Party’s Affiliate. 
 12.12 Interpretation. The captions and headings to this Agreement are for convenience
only, and are to be of no force or effect in construing or interpreting any of the provisions of this Agreement. Unless specified to the contrary, references to Articles, Sections or Exhibits mean the particular Articles, Sections or Exhibits to

1. Sale, Transfer and Assignment of Purchased Assets. Durect hereby sells, conveys, transfers and assigns to Impax, on and subject to

 Impax and DURECT Sign a $63 Million Agreement to Develop and 

Commercialize DURECT’s ELADUR® Pain Patch 

HAYWARD, CA and CUPERTINO, CA, January 6, 2014 —Impax Laboratories, Inc. (NASDAQ: IPXL) and DURECT Corporation (Nasdaq: DRRX) announced today
that they have entered into an agreement granting Impax the exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize ELADUR®, DURECT’s investigational transdermal bupivacaine patch for the
treatment of pain associated with post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN). 
 Under the terms of the agreement, Impax will pay DURECT an upfront fee of $2 million,
with possible additional payments of up to $61 million upon the achievement of predefined development and commercialization milestones. If ELADUR is commercialized, DURECT would also receive a tiered royalty on product sales. Impax will control and
fund the development program. 
 “We’re pleased to be moving ELADUR back into development through this collaboration with Impax,” stated
James E. Brown, president and CEO of DURECT. “Existing patches used to treat PHN pain are limited by their 12 hour duration, followed by a rest period in which the patient is not to wear a patch for 12 hours. Episodes of break-through pain are
frequently reported to occur during rest periods for existing patches. We share a vision with Impax to develop a patch that has the potential to reduce these episodes of break-through pain.” 

Michael Nestor, president of Impax Pharmaceuticals added, “This agreement is another example of our commitment to building a strong brand pipeline
through internal R&D and external business development. We are excited to collaborate with DURECT as this product could, if approved, fit well with the capabilities of our neurology focused specialty sales force.” 

ELADUR is an investigational transdermal drug patch intended to deliver bupivacaine for up to three days from a single application. DURECT has previously
announced positive results for ELADUR from a 60 patient Phase IIa clinical trial of patients suffering from PHN.

“SAR” means a right granted to an Eligible Person under Section 6(c) hereof. 
 (gg)
“Subsidiary” means with respect to the Company, any corporation or other entity of which a majority of the voting power of the voting equity securities or equity interest is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company
(including without limitation any limited partnership the general partner of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company). 
 3.
Administration. 
 (a) Authority of the Committee. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee except to the extent the
Board elects to administer this Plan, in which case references herein to the “Committee” shall be deemed to include references to the “Board.” Subject to the express provisions of the Plan and Rule 16b-3, the Committee shall have
the authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to (i) adopt, amend, and rescind administrative and interpretive rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (ii) determine the Eligible Persons to whom, and the time or times at which,
Awards shall be granted; (iii) determine the amount of cash and/or the number of shares of Stock, as applicable Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Units, Restricted Stock Awards, Dividend Equivalents, Bonus Stock, Other Stock-Based
Awards, Annual Incentive Awards, Performance Awards, or any combination thereof, that shall be the subject of each Award; (iv) determine the terms and provisions of each Award agreement (which need not be identical), including provisions
defining or otherwise relating to (A) the term and the period or 

  
 5 

 
periods and extent of exercisability of the Options, (B) the extent to which the transferability of shares of Stock issued or transferred pursuant to any Award is restricted, (C) except
as otherwise provided herein, the effect of termination of employment, or the service relationship with the Company, of a Participant on the Award, and (D) the effect of approved leaves of absence (consistent with any applicable regulations of
the Internal Revenue Service); (v) accelerate the time of vesting or exercisability of any Award that has been granted; (vi) construe the respective Award agreements and the Plan; (vii) make determinations of the Fair Market Value of
the Stock pursuant to the Plan; (viii) delegate its duties under the Plan (including, but not limited to, the authority to grant Awards) to such agents as it may appoint from time to time, provided that the Committee may not delegate its duties
where such delegation would violate state corporate law, or with respect to making Awards to, or otherwise with respect to Awards granted to, Eligible Persons who are subject to section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or who are Covered Employees
receiving Awards that are intended to constitute “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of section 162(m) of the Code; (ix) subject to Section 10(c), terminate, modify or amend the Plan; and (x) make
all other determinations, perform all other acts, and exercise all other powers and authority necessary or advisable for administering the Plan, including the delegation of those ministerial acts and responsibilities as the Committee deems
appropriate. Subject to Rule 16b-3 and section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan, in any Award, or in any Award agreement in the manner and to the extent it
deems necessary or desirable to carry the Plan into effect, and the Committee shall be the sole and final judge of that necessity or desirability. The determinations of the Committee on the matters referred to in this Section 3(a) shall
be final and conclusive. 
 (b) Manner of Exercise of Committee Authority. At any time that a member of the Committee is not a
Qualified Member, any action of the Committee relating to an Award granted or to be granted to an Eligible Person who is then subject to section 16 of the Exchange Act in respect of the Company, or relating to an Award intended by the Committee
to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder, may be taken either (i) by a subcommittee, designated by the Committee, composed solely of two or more
Qualified Members, or (ii) by the Committee but with each such member who is not a Qualified Member abstaining or recusing himself or herself from such action; provided, however, that, upon such abstention or recusal, the Committee remains
composed solely of two or more Qualified Members. Such action, authorized by such a subcommittee or by the Committee upon the abstention or recusal of such non-Qualified Member(s), shall be the action of the Committee for purposes of this Plan. Any
action of the Committee shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Persons, including the Company, its Subsidiaries, stockholders, Participants, Beneficiaries, and transferees under Section 10(a) hereof or other Persons claiming
rights from or through a Participant. 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 of its Subsidiaries, or committees thereof, the authority, subject to such terms 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 section 162(m) of the Code to fail to so qualify. The Committee may appoint agents to assist it in administering the Plan. 

  
 6 

 (c) Limitation of Liability. The Committee 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 of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the Company’s legal counsel, independent auditors, consultants or any other agents
assisting in the administration of this Plan. Members of the Committee and any officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries acting at the direction or on behalf of the Committee shall not be personally liable for any action or
determination taken or made in good faith with respect to this Plan, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be indemnified and held harmless by the Company with respect to any such action or determination. 

4. Stock Subject to Plan. 

(a) Overall Number of Shares Available for Delivery. Subject to adjustment in a manner consistent with any adjustment made
pursuant to Section 9, the total number of shares of Stock reserved and available for issuance in connection with Awards under this Plan shall not exceed              shares,
and such total will be available for the issuance of Incentive Stock Options. The total number of shares of Stock reserved and available for issuance in connection with Incentive Stock Options issued under this Plan shall not exceed
             shares to any one Participant in any calendar year. 
 (b)
Application of Limitation to Grants of Awards. Subject to Section 4(c), no Award may be granted if the number of shares of Stock to be delivered in connection with such Award exceeds the number of shares of Stock remaining
available under this Plan minus the number of shares of Stock issuable 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 of Stock actually delivered differs from the number of shares previously counted in connection with an Award. 

(c) Availability of Shares Not Issued under Awards. Shares of Stock subject to an Award under this Plan that expire or are canceled,
forfeited, exchanged, settled in cash or otherwise terminated, including (i) shares forfeited with respect to Restricted Stock, (ii) the number of shares withheld in payment of any exercise or purchase price of an Award or taxes relating
to Awards, and (iii) the number of shares surrendered in payment of any exercise or purchase price of an Award or taxes relating to any Award, will again be available for Awards under this Plan, except that if any such shares could not again be
available for Awards to a particular Participant under any applicable law or regulation, such shares shall be available exclusively for Awards to Participants who are not subject to such limitation. 

(d) Stock Offered. The shares to be delivered under the Plan shall be made available from (i) authorized but unissued shares of
Stock, (ii) Stock held in the treasury of the Company, or (iii) previously issued shares of Stock reacquired by the Company, including shares purchased on the open market. 

  
 7 

 5. Eligibility; Per Person Award Limitations. Awards may be granted under this Plan only
to Persons who are Eligible Persons at the time of grant thereof. In each calendar year, during any part of which this Plan is in effect, a Covered Employee may not be granted (a) Awards (other than Awards designated to be paid only in cash or
the settlement of which is not based on a number of shares of Stock) relating to more than              shares of Stock, subject to adjustment in a manner consistent with any adjustment
made pursuant to Section 9 and (b) Awards designated to be paid only in cash, or the settlement of which is not based on a number of shares of Stock, having a value determined on the date of grant in excess of
$            . 
 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(c)), such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Committee shall determine,
including terms requiring forfeiture of Awards in the event of termination of employment by the Participant, or termination of the Participant’s service relationship with the Company, and terms permitting a Participant to make elections
relating to his or her Award. 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 this Plan; provided, however, that the Committee shall not
have any discretion to accelerate, waive or modify any term or condition of an Award that is intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of section 162(m) of the Code if such discretion would cause the Award
to not so qualify or to accelerate the terms of payment of any Award that provides for a deferral of compensation under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules if such acceleration would subject a Participant to additional taxes under the
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. 
 (b) Options. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Eligible Persons on the
following terms and conditions: 
 (i) Exercise Price. Each Option agreement shall state the exercise price per share of Stock (the
“Exercise Price”); provided, however, that the Exercise Price per share of Stock subject to an ISO shall not be less than the greater of (A) the par value per share of the Stock or (B) 100% of the Fair
Market Value per share of the Stock as of the date of grant of the Option (or in the case of an individual who owns stock possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or any
subsidiary, 110% of the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock on the date of grant). 
 (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 methods by which such
Exercise Price may be paid or deemed to be paid, the form of such payment, including without limitation cash, Stock, other Awards or awards granted under other plans of the Company or any Subsidiary, or other property (including notes or other
contractual obligations of Participants to make payment on a deferred basis), and the methods by or forms in which Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, including, but not limited to, the delivery of Restricted Stock
subject to Section 6(d). In the case of an exercise whereby the Exercise Price is paid with Stock, such Stock shall be valued as of the date of exercise. 

  
 8 

 (iii) ISOs. The terms of any ISO granted under this Plan shall comply in all respects
with the provisions of section 422 of the Code. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs (including any SAR in tandem therewith) shall be interpreted, amended or altered, nor shall any
discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify either this Plan or any ISO under section 422 of the Code, unless the Participant has first requested the change that will result in such disqualification. ISOs
shall not be granted more than ten years after the earlier of the adoption of this Plan or the approval of this Plan by the Company’s stockholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock subject to an ISO and
the aggregate Fair Market Value of shares of stock of any parent or subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) subject to any other ISO (within the meaning of section 422 of the Code)) of the
Company or a parent or subsidiary corporation (within the meaning of sections 424(e) and (f) of the Code) that first becomes purchasable by a Participant in any calendar year may not (with respect to that Participant) exceed $100,000, or
such other amount as may be prescribed under section 422 of the Code or applicable regulations or rulings from time to time. As used in the previous sentence, Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the date the ISOs are granted. Failure to
comply with this provision shall not impair the enforceability or exercisability of any Option, but shall cause the excess amount of shares to be reclassified in accordance with the Code. 

(c) Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee is authorized to grant SARs to Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions:

 (i) Right to Payment. A SAR 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 of Stock on the date of exercise over (B) the grant price of the SAR as determined by the Committee. 

(ii) Rights Related to Options. A SAR granted pursuant to an Option shall entitle a Participant, upon exercise, to surrender that
Option or any portion thereof, to the extent unexercised, and to receive payment of an amount computed pursuant to Section 6(c)(ii)(B). Such Option shall then cease to be exercisable to the extent surrendered. SARs granted in connection
with an Option shall be subject to the terms of the Award agreement governing the Option, which shall comply with the following provisions in addition to those applicable to Options: 

(A) A SAR granted in connection with an Option shall be exercisable only at such time or times and only to the extent that the related Option
is exercisable and shall not be transferable except to the extent that the related Option is transferable. 

  
 9 

 (B) Upon the exercise of a SAR related to an Option, a Participant shall be entitled to receive
payment from the Company of an amount determined by multiplying: 
 (1) the difference obtained by subtracting the Exercise Price with
respect to a share of Stock specified in the related Option from the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise of the SAR, by 

(2) the number of shares as to which that SAR has been exercised. 

(iii) Right Without Option. A SAR granted independent of an Option shall be exercisable as determined by the Committee and set forth
in the Award agreement governing the SAR, which Award agreement shall comply with the following provisions: 
 (A) Each Award agreement
shall state the total number of shares of Stock to which the SAR relates. 
 (B) Each Award agreement shall state the time or periods in
which the right to exercise the SAR or a portion thereof shall vest and the number of shares of Stock for which the right to exercise the SAR shall vest at each such time or period. 

(C) Each Award agreement shall state the date at which the SARs shall expire if not previously exercised. 

(D) Each SAR shall entitle a Participant, upon exercise thereof, to receive payment of an amount determined by multiplying: 

(1) the difference obtained by subtracting the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant of the SAR from the Fair Market
Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise of that SAR, by 
 (2) the number of shares as to which the SAR has been exercised. 

(iv) Terms. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Committee shall determine at the date of grant or thereafter, the time or times
at which and the circumstances under which a SAR may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration payable
in settlement, method by or forms in which Stock will be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants, whether or not a SAR shall be in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR. SARs may be
either freestanding or in tandem with other Awards. 
 (d) Restricted Stock. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock to
Eligible Persons on the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) Grant and Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such
restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions, if any, as the Committee may impose, which 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. During the restricted period applicable to the Restricted Stock, the Restricted Stock may
not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the Participant. 

  
 10 

 (ii) Certificates for Stock. Restricted Stock granted under this 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. 

(iii) Dividends and Splits. As a condition to the grant of an Award of Restricted Stock, 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, applied to the purchase of additional Awards under this Plan or deferred without interest to the
date of vesting of the associated Award of Restricted Stock; provided, that, to the extent applicable, any such election shall comply with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, Stock distributed
in connection with a Stock split or Stock dividend, and other property (other than cash) 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 Stock
or other property has been distributed. 
 (e) Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units,
which are rights to receive Stock or cash (or a combination thereof) at the end of a specified deferral period (which may or may not be coterminous with the vesting schedule of the Award), to Eligible Persons, subject to the following terms and
conditions: 
 (i) Award and Restrictions. Settlement of an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall occur upon expiration of the
deferral period specified for such Restricted Stock Unit by the Committee (or, if permitted by the Committee, as elected by the Participant). In addition, Restricted Stock Units 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. Restricted Stock Units shall be satisfied by the delivery of cash or Stock in the amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the specified number of shares of Stock
covered by the Restricted Stock Units, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee at the date of grant or thereafter. 
 (ii)
Dividend Equivalents. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee at date of grant, Dividend Equivalents on the specified number of shares of Stock covered by an Award of Restricted Stock Units shall be either (A) paid with respect to
such Restricted Stock Units on 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 Units and the amount or
value thereof automatically deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units. 

  
 11 

 (f) Bonus Stock and Awards in Lieu of Obligations. The Committee is authorized to grant
Stock as a bonus, or to grant Stock or other Awards in lieu of obligations to pay cash or deliver other property under this Plan or under other plans or compensatory arrangements, provided that, in the case of Participants 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 Stock or other Awards are exempt from liability under section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. Stock
or Awards granted hereunder shall be subject to such other terms as shall be determined by the Committee. In the case of any grant of Stock to an officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in lieu of salary or other cash compensation, the
number of shares granted in place of such compensation shall be reasonable, as determined by the Committee. 
 (g) Dividend
Equivalents. The Committee is authorized to grant Dividend Equivalents to a Participant, entitling the Participant to receive cash, Stock, other Awards, or other property equal in value to dividends paid with respect to a specified number of
shares of Stock, 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 Stock, Awards, or other investment vehicles, and be subject to such restrictions on transferability and risks of forfeiture, as the Committee may specify. 

(h) Other Awards. The Committee is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant to Participants 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, Stock, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of this Plan, including without limitation convertible or
exchangeable debt securities, other rights convertible or exchangeable into Stock, purchase rights for Stock, Awards with value and payment contingent upon performance of the Company or any other factors designated by the Committee, and Awards
valued by reference to the book value of Stock or the value of securities of or the performance of specified Subsidiaries of the Company. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards. Stock delivered
pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 6(h) shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, cash, Stock,
other Awards, or other property, as the Committee shall determine. Cash awards, as an element of or supplement to any other Award under this Plan, may also be granted pursuant to this Section 6(h). 

7. Certain Provisions Applicable to Awards. 

(a) Termination of Employment. Except as provided herein, the treatment of an Award upon a termination of employment or any other
service relationship by and between a Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary shall be specified in the agreement controlling such Award. 

(b) Stand-Alone, Additional, Tandem, and Substitute Awards. Awards granted under this 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, or any of its Subsidiaries, or of any business entity to be acquired

  
 12 

 
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other right of an Eligible Person to receive payment from the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 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, the Committee shall require the surrender of such other Award in consideration for the grant of the new Award. Awards under this Plan
may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in which the value of Stock subject to the Award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation, 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 Stock minus the value of the cash compensation surrendered. Awards granted
pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be designed, awarded and settled in a manner that does not result in additional taxes under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. 

(c) Term of Awards. Except as specified herein, 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 SAR exceed a period of ten years (or such shorter term as may be required in respect of an ISO under section 422 of the Code). 

(d) Form and Timing of Payment under Awards; Deferrals. Subject to the terms of this Plan and any applicable Award agreement, payments
to be made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries 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, Stock, other Awards or
other property, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments, or on a deferred basis; provided, however, that any such deferred payment will be set forth in the agreement evidencing such Award and/or otherwise made in a manner
that will not result in additional taxes under the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. Except as otherwise provided herein, the settlement of any Award may be accelerated, and cash paid in lieu of Stock in connection with such settlement, in
the discretion of the Committee or upon occurrence of one or more specified events (in addition to a Change in Control). Installment or deferred payments may be required by the Committee (subject to Section 10(c) of this 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 and in
compliance with the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. Payments may include, without limitation, provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest 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 Stock. Any deferral shall only be allowed as is provided in a separate deferred compensation plan adopted by the Company and shall be made pursuant to the
Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules. This Plan shall not constitute an “employee benefit plan” for purposes of section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. 

(e) 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 such section 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 

  
 13 

 
requirements of Rule 16b-3 as 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) of the Exchange Act. 
 (f) Non-Competition
Agreement. Each Participant to whom an Award is granted under this Plan may be required to agree in writing as a condition to the granting of such Award not to engage in conduct in competition with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for a
period after the termination of such Participant’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries as determined by the Committee (a “Non-Competition Agreement”); provided, however, to the extent a legally
binding right to an Award within the meaning of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules is created with respect to a Participant, the Non-Competition Agreement must be entered into by such Participant within 30 days following the creation of
such legally binding right. 
 8. Performance and Annual Incentive Awards. 

(a) Performance Conditions. The right of an Eligible Person to receive a grant, and the right of a Participant to exercise or receive a
grant or settlement of any Award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such performance conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate
in establishing any performance conditions, and may exercise its discretion to reduce or increase the amounts payable under any Award subject to performance conditions, except as limited under Sections 8(b) and 8(c) hereof in the
case of a Performance Award or Annual Incentive Award intended to qualify under section 162(m) of the Code. 
 (b) Performance
Awards Granted to Designated Covered Employees. If the Committee determines that a Performance Award to be granted to an Eligible Person who is designated by the Committee as likely to be a Covered Employee should qualify as
“performance-based compensation” for purposes of section 162(m) of the Code, the grant, exercise and/or settlement of such Performance Award may be contingent upon achievement of preestablished performance goals and other terms set
forth in this Section 8(b). 
 (i) Performance Goals Generally. The performance goals for such Performance Awards shall
consist of one or more business criteria or individual performance criteria and a targeted level or levels of performance with respect to each of such criteria, as specified by the Committee consistent with this Section 8(b). Performance
goals shall be objective and shall otherwise meet the requirements of section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder (including Treasury Regulation §1.162-27 and successor regulations thereto), including the requirement that the
level or levels of performance targeted by the Committee result in the achievement of performance goals being “substantially uncertain” at the time the Committee actually establishes the performance goal or goals. The Committee may
determine that such Performance Awards shall be granted, exercised, and/or settled upon achievement of any one performance goal or that two or more of the performance goals must be achieved as a condition to grant, exercise and/or settlement of such
Performance Awards. Performance goals may differ for Performance Awards granted to any one Participant or to different Participants. 

  
 14 

 (ii) Business and Individual Performance Criteria 

(A) Business Criteria. One or more of the following business criteria for the Company, on a consolidated basis, and/or for specified
Subsidiaries or business or geographical units of the Company (except with respect to the total stockholder return and earnings per share criteria), shall be used by the Committee in establishing performance goals for such Performance Awards:
(1) earnings per share; (2) increase in revenues; (3) increase in cash flow; (4) increase in cash flow from operations; (5) increase in cash flow return; (6) return on net assets; (7) return on assets;
(8) return on investment; (9) return on capital; (10) return on equity; (11) economic value added; (12) operating margin; (13) contribution margin; (14) net income; (15) net income per share; (16) pretax
earnings; (17) pretax earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization; (18) pretax operating earnings after interest expense and before incentives, service fees, and extraordinary or special items; (19) total stockholder
return; (20) debt reduction; (21) market share; (22) change in the Fair Market Value of the Stock; (23) operating income; (24) lease operating expenses; and (25) any of the above goals 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 comparable companies. The Committee
may exclude the impact of any of the following events or occurrences which the Committee determines should appropriately be excluded: (a) asset write-downs; (b) litigation, claims, judgments or settlements; (c) the effect of changes
in tax law or other such laws or regulations affecting reported results; (d) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs; (e) any extraordinary, unusual or nonrecurring items as described in the Accounting Standards Codification
Topic 225, as the same may be amended or superseded from time to time; (f) any change in accounting principles as defined in the Accounting Standards Codification Topic 250, as the same may be amended or superseded from time to time;
(g) any loss from a discontinued operation as described in the Accounting Standards Codification Topic 360, as the same may be amended or superseded from time to time; (h) goodwill impairment charges; (i) operating results for any
business acquired during the calendar year; (j) third party expenses associated with any acquisition by us or any subsidiary; and (k) to the extent set forth with reasonable particularity in connection with the establishment of performance
goals, any other extraordinary events or occurrences identified by the Committee. One or more of the foregoing business criteria shall also be exclusively used in establishing performance goals for Annual Incentive Awards granted to a Covered
Employee under Section 8(c) hereof that are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under section 162(m) of the Code. 

(B) Individual Performance Criteria. The grant, exercise and/or settlement of Performance Awards may also be contingent upon
individual performance goals established by the Committee. If required for compliance with section 162(m) of the Code, such criteria shall be approved by the stockholders of the Company. 

(iii) Performance Period; Timing for Establishing Performance Goals. Achievement of performance goals in respect of such Performance
Awards shall be measured over a performance period of up to ten years, as 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. 

  
 15 

 (iv) Performance Award Pool. The Committee may establish a Performance Award pool, which
shall be an unfunded pool, for purposes of measuring performance of the Company in connection with Performance Awards. The amount of such Performance Award pool shall be based upon the achievement of a performance goal or goals based on one or more
of the criteria set forth in Section 8(b)(ii) hereof during the given performance period, as specified by the Committee in accordance with Section 8(b)(iii) hereof. The Committee may specify the amount of the Performance
Award pool as a percentage of any of such criteria, a percentage thereof in excess of a threshold amount, or as another amount which need not bear a strictly mathematical relationship to such criteria. 

(v) Settlement of Performance Awards; Other Terms. After the end of each performance period, the Committee shall determine the amount,
if any, of (A) the Performance Award pool, and the maximum amount of the potential Performance Award payable to each Participant in the Performance Award pool, or (B) the amount of the potential Performance Award otherwise payable to each
Participant. Settlement of such Performance Awards shall be in cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, in the discretion of the Committee. The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in
connection with such Performance Awards, but may not exercise discretion to increase any such amount payable to a Covered Employee in respect of a Performance Award subject to this Section 8(b). The Committee shall specify the
circumstances in which such Performance Awards shall be paid or forfeited in the event of termination of employment by the Participant prior to the end of a performance period or settlement of Performance Awards. 

(c) Annual Incentive Awards Granted to Designated Covered Employees. If the Committee determines that an Annual Incentive Award to be
granted to an Eligible Person who is designated by the Committee as likely to be a Covered Employee should qualify as “performance-based compensation” for purposes of section 162(m) of the Code, the grant, exercise and/or settlement
of such Annual Incentive Award shall be contingent upon achievement of preestablished performance goals and other terms set forth in this Section 8(c). 

(i) Potential Annual Incentive Awards. Not later than the end of the 90th day of each applicable year, or at such other date as may be
required or permitted in the case of Awards intended to be “performance-based compensation” under section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall determine the Eligible Persons who will potentially receive Annual Incentive Awards, and
the amounts potentially payable thereunder, for that fiscal year, either out of an Annual Incentive Award pool established by such date under Section 8(c)(ii) hereof or as individual Annual Incentive Awards. The amount potentially
payable, with respect to Annual Incentive Awards, shall be based upon the achievement of a performance goal or goals based on one or more of the business criteria set forth in Section 8(b)(ii) hereof in the given performance year, as
specified by the Committee. 
 (ii) Annual Incentive Award Pool. The Committee may establish an Annual Incentive Award pool, which
shall be an unfunded pool, for purposes of measuring performance of the Company in connection with Annual Incentive Awards. The amount of such Annual Incentive Award pool shall be based upon the achievement of a performance goal or goals based on
one or more of the business criteria set forth in Section 8(b)(ii) hereof during the given performance period, as specified by the Committee in accordance with Section 8(b)(iii) hereof.

  
 16 

 
The Committee may specify the amount of the Annual Incentive Award pool as a percentage of any of such business criteria, a percentage thereof in excess of a threshold amount, or as another
amount which need not bear a strictly mathematical relationship to such business criteria. 
 (iii) Payout of Annual Incentive
Awards. After the end of each applicable year, the Committee shall determine the amount, if any, of (A) the Annual Incentive Award pool, and the maximum amount of the potential Annual Incentive Award payable to each Participant in the
Annual Incentive Award pool, or (B) the amount of the potential Annual Incentive Award otherwise payable to each Participant. The Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the amount payable to any Participant as a final Annual Incentive
Award shall be reduced from the amount of his or her potential Annual Incentive Award, including a determination to make no final Award whatsoever, but may not exercise discretion to increase any such amount in the case of an Annual Incentive Award
intended to qualify under section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee shall specify the circumstances in which an Annual Incentive Award shall be paid or forfeited in the event of termination of employment by the Participant prior to the end of
the applicable year or settlement of such Annual Incentive Award. 
 (d) Written Determinations. All determinations by the Committee
as to the establishment of performance goals, the amount of any Performance Award pool or potential individual Performance Awards, the achievement of performance goals relating to and final settlement of Performance Awards under
Section 8(b), the amount of any Annual Incentive Award pool or potential individual Annual Incentive Awards, the achievement of performance goals relating to and final settlement of Annual Incentive Awards under Section 8(c)
shall be made in writing in the case of any Award intended to qualify under section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee may not delegate any responsibility relating to such Performance Awards or Annual Incentive Awards. 

(e) Status of Section 8(b) and Section 8(c) Awards under Section 162(m) of the Code. It is the intent of the Company
that Performance Awards and Annual Incentive Awards under Sections 8(b) and 8(c) hereof granted to Persons who are designated by the Committee as likely to be Covered Employees within the meaning of section 162(m) of the Code
and the regulations thereunder (including Treasury Regulation §1.162-27 and successor regulations thereto) shall, if so designated by the Committee, constitute “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of section 162(m)
of the Code and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, the terms of Sections 8(b), (c), (d) and (e), including the definitions of Covered Employee and other terms used therein, shall be interpreted in a manner
consistent with section 162(m) of the Code and regulations thereunder. The foregoing notwithstanding, because the Committee cannot determine with certainty whether a given Eligible Person will be a Covered Employee with respect to a fiscal year
that has not yet been completed, the term Covered Employee as used herein shall mean only a Person designated by the Committee, at the time of grant of a Performance Award or an Annual Incentive Award, who is likely to be a Covered Employee with
respect to that fiscal year. If any provision of this Plan as in effect on the date of adoption of any agreements relating to Performance Awards or Annual Incentive Awards that are designated as intended to comply with section 162(m) of the
Code does not comply or is inconsistent with the requirements of section 162(m) of the Code or regulations thereunder, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements.

 9. Subdivision or Consolidation; Recapitalization; Change in Control; Reorganization. 

(a) Existence of Plans and Awards. The existence of this Plan and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect in any way the right or
power of the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any
issue of debt or equity securities ahead of or affecting Stock or the rights thereof, the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or any part of its assets or business or any other corporate
act or proceeding. In no event will any action taken by the Committee pursuant to this Section 9 result in the creation of deferred compensation within the meaning of section 409A of the Code and the regulations and other guidance
promulgated thereunder. 
 (b) Subdivision or Consolidation of Shares. The terms of an Award and the number of shares of Stock
authorized pursuant to Section 4 for issuance under the Plan shall be subject to adjustment from time to time, in accordance with the following provisions: 

(i) If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall subdivide as a whole (by reclassification, by a Stock split, by the issuance of a
distribution on Stock payable in Stock, or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then outstanding into a greater number of shares of Stock or in the event the Company distributes an extraordinary cash dividend, then, in each such case as
appropriate, (A) the maximum number of shares of Stock available for the Plan or in connection with Awards as provided in Sections 4 and 5 shall be increased proportionately, and the kind of shares or other securities
available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) that may be acquired under any then outstanding Award shall be increased proportionately, and (C) the price
(including the exercise price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) subject to then outstanding Awards shall be reduced proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which outstanding Awards
remain exercisable or subject to restrictions. 
 (ii) If at any time, or from time to time, the Company shall consolidate as a whole (by
reclassification, by reverse Stock split, or otherwise) the number of shares of Stock then outstanding into a lesser number of shares of Stock, (A) the maximum number of shares of Stock for the Plan or available in connection with Awards as
provided in Sections 4 and 5 shall be decreased proportionately, and the kind of shares or other securities available for the Plan shall be appropriately adjusted, (B) the number of shares of Stock (or other kind of shares or
securities) that may be acquired under any then outstanding Award shall be decreased proportionately, and (C) the price (including the exercise price) for each share of Stock (or other kind of shares or securities) subject to then outstanding
Awards shall be increased proportionately, without changing the aggregate purchase price or value as to which outstanding Awards remain exercisable or subject to restrictions. 

(iii) Whenever the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Awards and the price for each share of Stock subject to outstanding
Awards are required to be adjusted as provided in this Section 9(b), the Committee shall promptly prepare a notice setting 

  
 18 

 
forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the change in price and the number of shares of
Stock, other securities, cash, or property purchasable subject to each Award after giving effect to the adjustments. The Committee shall promptly provide each affected Participant with such notice. 

(iv) Adjustments under Sections 9(b)(i) and (ii) shall be made by the Committee, and its determination as to what
adjustments shall be made and the extent thereof shall be final, binding, and conclusive. No fractional interest shall be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustments. 

(c) Corporate Recapitalization. If the Company recapitalizes, reclassifies its capital stock, or otherwise changes its capital
structure (a “recapitalization”) without the occurrence of a Change in Control, the number and class of shares of Stock covered by an Option or a SAR theretofore granted shall be adjusted so that such Option or SAR shall
thereafter cover the number and class of shares of stock and securities to which the holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the recapitalization if, immediately prior to the recapitalization, the holder had been the holder of
record of the number of shares of Stock then covered by such Option or SAR and the share limitations provided in Sections 4 and 5 shall be adjusted in a manner consistent with the recapitalization. 

(d) Additional Issuances. Except as hereinbefore expressly provided, the issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class or
securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, for cash, property, labor or services, upon direct sale, upon the exercise of rights or warrants to subscribe therefor, or upon conversion of shares or obligations of the Company convertible
into such shares or other securities, and in any case whether or not for fair value, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to Awards theretofore granted or the
purchase price per share, if applicable. 
 (e) Change in Control. Upon a Change in Control, the Committee, acting in its sole
discretion without the consent or approval of any holder, shall affect one or more of the following alternatives, which may vary among individual holders and which may vary among Options or SARs (collectively “Grants”) held
by any individual holder: (i) accelerate the time at which Grants then outstanding may be exercised so that such Grants may be exercised in full for a limited period of time on or before a specified date (before or after such Change in Control)
fixed by the Committee, after which specified date all unexercised Grants and all rights of holders thereunder shall terminate, (ii) require the mandatory surrender to the Company by selected holders of some or all of the outstanding Grants
held by such holders (irrespective of whether such Grants are then exercisable under the provisions of this Plan) as of a date, before or after such Change in Control, specified by the Committee, in which event the Committee shall thereupon cancel
such Grants and pay to each holder an amount of cash (or other consideration including securities or other property) per share equal to the excess, if any, of the amount calculated in Section 9(f) (the “Change in Control
Price”) of the shares subject to such Grants over the Exercise Price(s) under such Grants for such shares (except that to the extent the Exercise Price under any such Grant is equal to or exceeds the Change in Control Price, in which
case no amount shall be payable with respect to such Grant), or (iii) make such adjustments to 

  
 19 

 
Grants then outstanding as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control; provided, however, that the Committee may determine in its sole discretion that no adjustment is
necessary to Grants then outstanding; provided, further, however, that the right to make such adjustments shall include, but not require or be limited to, the modification of Grants such that the holder of the Grant shall be entitled to purchase or
receive (in lieu of the total number of shares of Stock as to which an Option or SAR is exercisable (the “Total Shares”) or other consideration that the holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase or receive under the
Grant (the “Total Consideration”)), the number of shares of stock, other securities, cash or property to which the Total Consideration would have been entitled to in connection with the Change in Control (A) (in the case
of Options), at an aggregate exercise price equal to the exercise price that would have been payable if the Total Shares had been purchased upon the exercise of the Grant immediately before the consummation of the Change in Control and (B) in
the case of SARs, if the SARs had been exercised immediately before the occurrence of the Change in Control. 
 (f) Change in Control
Price. The “Change in Control Price” shall equal the amount determined in the following clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v), whichever is applicable, as follows: (i) the price per share offered to holders of Stock in
any merger or consolidation, (ii) the per share Fair Market Value of the Stock immediately before the Change in Control without regard to assets sold in the Change in Control and assuming the Company has received the consideration paid for the
assets in the case of a sale of the assets, (iii) the amount distributed per share of Stock in a dissolution transaction, (iv) the price per share offered to holders of Stock in any tender offer or exchange offer whereby a Change in
Control takes place, or (v) if such Change in Control occurs other than pursuant to a transaction described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv) of this Section 9(f), the Fair Market Value per share of the Stock that may
otherwise be obtained with respect to such Grants or to which such Grants track, as determined by the Committee as of the date determined by the Committee to be the date of cancellation and surrender of such Grants. In the event that the
consideration offered to stockholders of the Company in any transaction described in this Section 9(f) or in Section 9(e) consists of anything other than cash, the Committee shall determine the fair cash equivalent of the
portion of the consideration offered which is other than cash and such determination shall be binding on all affected Participants to the extent applicable to Awards held by such Participants. 

(g) Impact of Corporate Events on Awards Generally. In the event of a Change in Control or changes in the outstanding Stock by reason
of a recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange or other relevant change in capitalization occurring after the date of the grant of any Award and not otherwise provided for by this Section 9, any
outstanding Awards and any Award agreements evidencing such Awards shall be subject to adjustment by the Committee at its discretion, which adjustment may, in the Committee’s discretion, be described in the Award agreement and may include, but
not be limited to, adjustments as to the number and price of shares of Stock or other consideration subject to such Awards, accelerated vesting (in full or in part) of such Awards, conversion of such Awards into awards denominated in the securities
or other interests of any successor Person, or the cash settlement of such Awards in exchange for the cancellation thereof. In the event of any such change in the outstanding Stock, the aggregate number of shares of Stock available under this Plan
may be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, whose determination shall be conclusive. 

  
 20 

 10. General Provisions. 

(a) Transferability. 

(i) Permitted Transferees. The Committee may, in its discretion, permit a Participant to transfer all or any portion of an Option or
SAR, or authorize all or a portion of an Option or SAR to be granted to an Eligible Person to be on terms which permit transfer by such Participant; provided that, in either case the transferee or transferees must be any child, stepchild,
grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, in each case with respect to
the Participant, an individual sharing the Participant’s household (other than a tenant or employee of the Company), a trust in which any of the foregoing individuals have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest, a foundation in
which any of the foregoing individuals (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which any of the foregoing individuals (or the Participant) own more than fifty percent of the voting interests (collectively,
“Permitted Transferees”); provided further that, (X) there may be no consideration for any such transfer and (Y) subsequent transfers of Options or SARs transferred as provided above shall be prohibited except
subsequent transfers back to the original holder of the Option or SAR and transfers to other Permitted Transferees of the original holder. Agreements evidencing Options or SARs with respect to which such transferability is authorized at the time of
grant must be approved by the Committee, and must expressly provide for transferability in a manner consistent with this Section 10(a)(i). 

(ii) Qualified Domestic Relations Orders. An Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock Unit Award, Restricted Stock Award or
other Award may be transferred, to a Permitted Transferee, pursuant to a domestic relations order entered or approved by a court of competent jurisdiction upon delivery to the Company of written notice of such transfer and a certified copy of such
order. 
 (iii) Other Transfers. Except as expressly permitted by Sections 10(a)(i) and 10(a)(ii), Awards shall not be
transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10, an Incentive Stock Option shall not be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution. 
 (iv) Effect of Transfer. Following the transfer of any Award as contemplated by Sections 10(a)(i),
10(a)(ii) and 10(a)(iii), (A) such Award shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer, provided that the term “Participant” shall be deemed to refer to
the Permitted Transferee, the recipient under a qualified domestic relations order, or the estate or heirs of a deceased Participant or other transferee, as applicable, to the extent appropriate to enable the Participant to exercise the transferred
Award in accordance with the terms of this Plan and applicable law and (B) the provisions of the Award relating to exercisability shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Participant and, following the occurrence of any
applicable events described therein the Awards shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee, the recipient under a qualified domestic relations order, or the estate or heirs of a deceased Participant, as applicable, only to the extent and for
the periods that would have been applicable in the absence of the transfer. 

  
 21 

 (v) Procedures and Restrictions. Any Participant desiring to transfer an Award as
permitted under Sections 10(a)(i), 10(a)(ii) or 10(a)(iii) shall make application therefor in the manner and time specified by the Committee and shall comply with such other requirements as the Committee may require to
assure compliance with all applicable securities laws. The Committee shall not give permission for such a transfer if (A) it would give rise to short swing liability under section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or (B) it may not be made in
compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws. 
 (vi) Registration. To the extent the issuance to any
Permitted Transferee of any shares of Stock issuable pursuant to Awards transferred as permitted in this Section 10(a) is not registered pursuant to the effective registration statement of the Company generally covering the shares to be
issued pursuant to this Plan to initial holders of Awards, the Company shall not have any obligation to register the issuance of any such shares of Stock to any such transferee. 

(b) Taxes. The Company and any of its Subsidiaries are authorized to withhold from any Award granted, or any payment relating to an
Award under this Plan, including from a distribution of Stock, 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 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 Stock 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. 

(c) Changes to this Plan and Awards. The Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Plan or the Committee’s
authority to grant Awards under this Plan without the consent of stockholders or Participants, except that any amendment or alteration to this Plan, including any increase in any share limitation, shall be subject to the approval of the
Company’s stockholders not later than the annual meeting next following such Board action if such stockholder approval is required by any federal or state law or regulation or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on
which the Stock may then be listed or quoted, and the Board may otherwise, in its discretion, determine to submit other such changes to this Plan to stockholders for approval; provided, that, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such
Board action may materially and adversely affect the rights of such Participant under 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 this Plan; provided, however, that, without the consent of an affected Participant, no such Committee action may materially and adversely affect the rights
of such Participant under such Award. For purposes of clarity, any adjustments made to Awards pursuant to Section 9 will be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any previously granted and
outstanding Award and therefore may be made without the consent of affected Participants. 

  
 22 

 (d) Limitation on Rights Conferred under Plan. Neither this Plan nor any action taken
hereunder 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 any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) interfering in any way
with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Eligible Person’s or Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, (iii) giving an Eligible Person or Participant any claim to be granted any
Award under this Plan or to be treated uniformly with other Participants and/or employees and/or other service providers, or (iv) conferring on a Participant any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until the Participant is
duly issued or transferred shares of Stock in accordance with the terms of an Award. 
 (e) Unfunded Status of Awards. This Plan is
intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for certain incentive awards. 
 (f) Nonexclusivity of this Plan. Neither the
adoption of this Plan by the Board nor its submission to the stockholders 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. Nothing contained in this Plan shall be construed to prevent the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from taking any corporate
action which is deemed by the Company or such Subsidiary to be appropriate or in its best interest, whether or not such action would have an adverse effect on this Plan or any Award made under this Plan. No employee, beneficiary or other person
shall have any claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of any such action. 
 (g) Fractional Shares. No
fractional shares of Stock shall be issued or delivered pursuant to this 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. 
 (h) Severability. If any provision of this
Plan is held to be illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions hereof, but such provision shall be fully severable and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or
invalid provision had never been included herein. If any of the terms or provisions of this Plan or any Award agreement conflict with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 (as those terms or provisions are applied to Eligible Persons who are subject to
section 16(b) of the Exchange Act) or section 422 of the Code (with respect to Incentive Stock Options), then those conflicting terms or provisions shall be deemed inoperative to the extent they so conflict with the requirements of Rule
16b-3 (unless the Board or the Committee, as appropriate, has expressly determined that the Plan or such Award should not comply with Rule 16b-3) or section 422 of the Code. With respect to Incentive Stock Options, if this Plan does not contain
any provision required to be included herein under section 422 of the Code, that provision shall be deemed to be incorporated herein with the same force and effect as if that provision had been set out at length herein; provided, further, that,
to the extent any Option that is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option cannot so qualify, that Option (to that extent) shall be deemed an Option not subject to section 422 of the Code for all purposes of the Plan. 

  
 23 

 (i) Governing Law. All questions arising with respect to the provisions of the Plan and
Awards shall be determined by application of the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions thereof, except to the extent Delaware law is preempted by federal law. The obligation of the Company to sell and
deliver Stock hereunder is subject to applicable federal and state laws and to the approval of any governmental authority required in connection with the authorization, issuance, sale, or delivery of such Stock. 

(j) Conditions to Delivery of Stock. Nothing herein or in any Award granted hereunder or any Award agreement shall require the Company
to issue any shares with respect to any Award if that issuance would, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, constitute a violation of the Securities Act or any similar or superseding statute or statutes, any other applicable statute or
regulation, or the rules of any applicable securities exchange or securities association, as then in effect. At the time of any exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or at the time of any grant of a Restricted Stock Award, Restricted
Stock Unit, or other Award the Company may, as a condition precedent to the exercise of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or settlement of any Restricted Stock Award, Restricted Stock Unit or other Award, require from the Participant (or in
the event of his or her death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) such written representations, if any, concerning the holder’s intentions with regard to the retention or disposition of the shares of Stock being
acquired pursuant to the Award and such written covenants and agreements, if any, as to the manner of disposal of such shares as, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, may be necessary to ensure that any disposition by that holder (or in the
event of the holder’s death, his or her legal representatives, heirs, legatees, or distributees) will not involve a violation of the Securities Act or any similar or superseding statute or statutes, any other applicable state or federal statute
or regulation, or any rule of any applicable securities exchange or securities association, as then in effect. No Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable and no settlement of any Restricted Stock Award or Restricted Stock Unit shall
occur with respect to a Participant unless and until the holder thereof shall have paid cash or property to, or performed services for, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that the Committee believes is equal to or greater in value than the par
value of the Stock subject to such Award. 
 (k) Section 409A of the Code. In the event that any Award granted pursuant to this
Plan provides for a deferral of compensation within the meaning of the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Rules, it is the general intention, but not the obligation, of the Company to design such Award to comply with the Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation Rules and such Award should be interpreted accordingly. 
 (l) Plan Effective Date and Term. This Plan was adopted by
the Board on the Effective Date. No Awards may be granted under this Plan on and after                     ,     .1 
  

	1 	Date to be inserted which is no later than 10th anniversary of Effective Date.
