"Administrative Agent"). 

W I T N E S S E T H 

        WHEREAS,
a $265 million revolving credit facility has been extended to the Borrower pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, modified and supplemented
from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") dated as of July 16, 2004 among the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders identified therein and Bank
of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent; and 

        WHEREAS,
the Borrower has requested certain modifications to the Credit Agreement and the Required Lenders have agreed to the requested modifications on the terms and conditions set
forth herein. 

        NOW,
THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows: 

        1.    Defined Terms.    Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
provided to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

        2.    Amendment.    The definition of "Support Obligations" in Section 1.1 of the Credit Agreement is amended
in its entirety to read as follows: 

"Support Obligations" means, with respect to any Person, without duplication, any obligations of such Person (other than endorsements in the ordinary
course of business of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection) guaranteeing or intended to guarantee any Indebtedness of any other Person in any manner, whether direct or indirect, and
including without limitation any obligation, whether or not contingent, (i) to purchase any such Indebtedness or any Property constituting security therefor, (ii) to advance or provide
funds or other support for the payment or purchase of any such Indebtedness or to maintain working capital, solvency or other balance sheet condition of such other Person (including without limitation
keep well agreements, maintenance agreements, comfort letters or similar agreements or arrangements) for the benefit of any holder of Indebtedness of such other Person, (iii) to lease or
purchase Property, securities or services primarily for the purpose of assuring the holder of such Indebtedness, or (iv) to otherwise assure or hold harmless the holder of such Indebtedness
against loss in respect thereof, but specifically excluding (i) guaranties or other assurances with respect to performance obligations under bids or contracts made or entered into in the
ordinary course of business and (ii) if the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries provide services to any customers of the members of the Consolidated Group by either (i) acting as an
agent or loan broker (or other similar capacity) of a hedge fund, bank or other commercial institution in connection with cash advances to such customers or (ii) acting as an agent or loan
broker (or other similar capacity) of such customer in connection with cash advances to such customer from a hedge fund, bank or other commercial institution, indebtedness of any Credit Party to such
hedge fund, bank or other commercial institution providing such cash advances to such customers to the extent of such advances (plus any associated fees, interest, and expenses), including, without
limitation, indebtedness under a guarantee, letter of credit or other Support Obligation providing such hedge fund, bank or other commercial institution credit support for the repayment of such
advances. The amount of any Support Obligation hereunder shall (subject to any limitations set forth therein) be deemed to be an amount 

equal
to the outstanding principal amount (or maximum principal amount, if larger) of the Indebtedness in respect of which such Support Obligation is made. 

        3.    Conditions Precedent.    This Amendment shall be effective as of the date hereof upon execution of this
Amendment by the Credit Parties and the Required Lenders. 

        4.    Reaffirmation of Representations and Warranties.    The Borrower and each Guarantor represents and warrants that
the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof (except those that expressly
relate to an earlier period). 

        5.    Reaffirmation of Guaranty.    Each Guarantor (a) acknowledges and consents to all of the terms and
conditions of this Amendment, (b) affirms all of its obligations under the Credit Documents and
(c) agrees that this Amendment and all documents executed in connection herewith do not operate to reduce or discharge such Guarantor's obligations under the Credit Documents. 

        6.    Reaffirmation of Security Interests.    The Borrower and each Guarantor (i) affirms that each of the
Liens granted in or pursuant to the Credit Documents are valid and subsisting and (ii) agrees that this Amendment shall in no manner impair or otherwise adversely effect any of the Liens
granted in or pursuant to the Credit Documents. 

        7.    No Other Changes.    Except as modified hereby, all of the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents
(including schedules and exhibits thereto) shall remain in full force and effect. 

        8.    Counterparts.    This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed
and delivered shall be deemed an original and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Amendment to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. 

        9.    Governing Law.    This Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made under, and for all purposes shall be
construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of North Carolina.

beginning with the Company if each of the corporations other than the last corporation in the unbroken chain owns stock possessing more than fifty percent of the total combined voting power of all
classes of stock in one of the other corporations in such chain. 

        3.     Stock
Subject to the Plan.    Subject to the provisions of Section 15 of the Plan, the shares of stock subject to Awards
shall be Common Stock, initially shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.003 per share. Subject to the provisions of Section 15 of the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares
which may be issued upon exercise of Options or Stock Purchase Rights or issued in the form of Restricted Stock is 2,500,000 Shares. Shares issued pursuant to an Award may be authorized but unissued,
or reacquired Common Stock. If an Option or Stock Purchase Right expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares which were 

3

 

subject
thereto shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). Shares which are delivered by the Holder or withheld by the Company upon the exercise
of an Option or Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, in payment of the exercise price thereof or tax withholding thereon, may again be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the
limitations of this Section 3. If Shares of Restricted Stock are repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price, if any, such Shares shall become available for future grant under
the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an
Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. 

        4.     Administration
of the Plan. 

        (a)   Administrator.    Either
the Board or a Committee of the Board delegated administrative authority hereunder shall administer the
Plan and, in the case of a Committee, the Committee shall consist solely of two or more Independent Directors each of whom is both an "outside director," within the meaning of Section 162(m) of
the Code, and a "non-employee director" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3. Within the scope of such authority, the Board or the Committee may (i) delegate to a
committee of one or more members of the Board who are not Independent Directors the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are either (1) not then "covered employees,"
within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and are not expected to be "covered employees" at the time of recognition of income resulting from such award or (2) not persons with
respect to whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and/or (ii) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not "non-employee
directors," within the meaning of Rule 16b-3, the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The
Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan. Appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee
members may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may be filled only by the Board. 

        (b)   Powers
of the Administrator.    Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the specific duties delegated by the Board to such
Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities, the Administrator shall have the authority in its sole discretion: 

        (i)    to
determine the Fair Market Value; 

        (ii)   to
select the Service Providers to whom Awards may from time to time be granted hereunder; 

        (iii)  to
determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such Award granted hereunder; 

        (iv)  to
approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan; 

        (v)   to
determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder (such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times
when Awards may vest or be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award
or the Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine); 

        (vi)  to
determine whether to offer to buyout a previously granted Option as provided in subsection 10(i) and to determine the terms and conditions of such offer and
buyout (including whether payment is to be made in cash or Shares); 

4

 

        (vii) to
prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the
purpose of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws; 

        (viii)   to
allow Holders to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued pursuant to an Award that
number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld based on the statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes that apply to supplemental
taxable income. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Holders to have Shares
withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable; 

        (ix)  to
amend the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan as provided in Section 21; and 

        (x)   to
construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and Awards granted pursuant to the Plan and to exercise such powers and perform such acts as the Administrator deems
necessary or desirable to promote the best interests of the Company which are not in conflict with the provisions of the Plan. 

        (c)   Effect
of Administrator's Decision.    All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and
binding on all Holders. 

        5.     Eligibility.    Awards
other than Incentive Stock Options may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be
granted only to Employees. If otherwise eligible, an Employee or Consultant who has been granted an Award may be granted additional Awards. Each Independent Director shall be eligible to be granted
Restricted Stock and Options at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 12. 

        6.     Limitations.

        (a)   Each
Option shall be designated by the Administrator in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However,
notwithstanding such designations, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to a Holder's Incentive Stock Options and other incentive stock options granted by the Company,
any Parent or Subsidiary, which become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options or
other options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. 

        For
purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be
determined as of the time of grant. 

        (b)   Neither
the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon a Holder any right with respect to continuing the Holder's employment or consulting relationship with the Company, nor
shall they interfere in any way with the Holder's right or the Company's right to terminate such employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause. 

        (c)   The
maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to one or more Awards that may be granted to any one Service Provider during a calendar year shall be 800,000.
The foregoing limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company's capitalization as described in Section 18. For purposes of this Section 6(c), if
an Option is canceled in the same calendar year it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 18), the canceled Option will be counted against the limit set
forth in this 

5

 

Section 6(c).
For this purpose, if the exercise price of an Option is reduced, the transaction shall be treated as a cancellation of the Option and the grant of a new Option. 

        7.     Term
of Plan.    The Plan became effective upon its initial adoption by the Board on March 21, 2001 and shall continue in
effect until it is terminated under Section 21 of the Plan. No Awards may be issued under the Plan after March 21, 2011, the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date upon which the Plan was
initially adopted by the Board. 

        8.     Term
of Awards.    The term of each Award shall be stated in the Award Agreement; provided,
however, that the term shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Holder who, at the time
the Option is granted, owns (or is treated as owning under Code Section 424) stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any
Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement. 

        9.     Option
Exercise Price and Consideration. 

        (a)   Except
as provided in Section 13, the per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the
Administrator, but shall be subject to the following: 

        (i)    In
the case of an Incentive Stock Option 

        (A)  granted
to an Employee who, at the time of grant of such Option, owns (or is treated as owning under Code Section 424) stock representing more than ten percent
(10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value
per Share on the date of grant. 

        (B)  granted
to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. 

        (b)   The
consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator. Such
consideration may consist of (1) cash, (2) check, (3) with the consent of the Administrator, a full recourse promissory note bearing interest (at a market rate of interest
determined as of the date of exercise) and payable upon such terms as may be prescribed by the Administrator, (4) with the consent of the Administrator, other Shares which (x) in the
case of Shares acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Holder for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender
equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (5) with the consent of the Administrator, surrendered Shares then issuable upon exercise of the
Option having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, (6) property of any kind which constitutes good and
valuable consideration, (7) with the consent of the Administrator, delivery of a notice that the Holder has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon
exercise of the Options and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price,  provided, that
payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, or (8) with the consent of the Administrator,
any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. 

        10.   Exercise
of Option; Vesting; Fractional Exercises.    Except as provided in Section 13, Options granted hereunder shall be
vested and exercisable according to the terms hereof at such times and 

6

 

under
such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 

        (a)   All
Options shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator and shall be evidenced by a written Option Agreement. In the
event that the exercise price of an Option is intended to be below the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant, such Option Agreement may also include limitations regarding the exercise of
such Option and may provide that such exercise is subject to certain terms and restrictions, including but not limited to, an election, by specified date, of the Holder, regarding such Option, to the
extent such terms and restrictions are required so as not cause the Option or the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of such Option to be includable in the gross income of the
Holder under Section 409A of the Code prior to such times or occurrence of such events, as permitted by the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder (including, without
limitation, Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury thereunder). 

        (b)   Deliveries
upon Exercise.    All or a portion of an exercisable Option shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the
following to the Secretary of the Company or his or her office: 

        (i)    A
written or electronic notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option, or a portion thereof, is exercised. The
notice shall be signed by the Holder or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option; 

        (ii)   Such
representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with Applicable Laws. The
Administrator may, in its sole discretion, also take whatever additional actions it deems appropriate to effect such compliance, including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates
and issuing stop transfer notices to agents and registrars; 

        (iii)  Upon
the exercise of all or a portion of an unvested Option pursuant to Section 10(h), a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in a form determined by the
Administrator and signed by the Holder or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option; and 

        (iv)  In
the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 10(f) by any person or persons other than the Holder, appropriate proof of the right of such
person or persons to exercise the Option. 

        (c)   Conditions
to Delivery of Share Certificates.    The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or
certificates for Shares purchased upon the exercise of any Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 

        (i)    The
admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed; 

        (ii)   The
completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law, or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body which the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or advisable; 

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

7

 

        (iv)  The
lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative
convenience; and 

        (v)   The
receipt by the Company of full payment for such Shares, including payment of any applicable withholding tax, which in the sole discretion of the Administrator may be
in the form of consideration used by the Holder to pay for such Shares under Section 9(b). 

        (d)   Termination
of Relationship as a Service Provider.    If a Holder ceases to be a Service Provider other than by reason of the
Holder's disability or death, such Holder may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of
termination. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Holder's termination. If, on the date of
termination, the Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become
available for issuance under the Plan. If, after termination, the Holder does not exercise his or her Option within the time period specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered
by such Option shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. 

        (e)   Disability
of Holder.    If a Holder ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Holder's disability, the Holder may
exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination. In the absence of a specified time in the
Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Holder's termination. If such disability is not a "disability" as such term is defined in
Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such Incentive Stock Option shall automatically cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for
tax purposes as a Non-Qualified Stock Option from and after the day which is three (3) months and one (1) day following such termination. If, on the date of termination, the
Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become available
for issuance under the Plan. If, after termination, the Holder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option
shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. 

        (f)    Death
of Holder.    If a Holder dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised within such period of time as is
specified in the Option Agreement, by the Holder's estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that the Option is vested on
the date of death. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Holder's termination. If, at the time of
death, the Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become
available for issuance under the Plan. The Option may be exercised by the executor or administrator of the Holder's estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled to exercise the Option under the
Holder's will or the laws of descent or distribution. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall again
become available for issuance under the Plan. 

8

  

        (g)   Regulatory
Extension.    A Holder's Option Agreement may provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of
the Holder's status as a Service Provider (other than upon the Holder's death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of shares would violate the registration
requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in Section 8 or (ii) the expiration
of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the Holder's status as a Service Provider during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration
requirements. 

        (h)   Early
Exercisability.    The Administrator may provide in the terms of a Holder's Option Agreement that the Holder may, at any
time before the Holder's status as a Service Provider terminates, exercise the Option in whole or in part prior to the full vesting of the Option; provided,
however, that Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option which has not fully vested may be subject to any forfeiture, transfer or other restrictions as the Administrator may
determine in its sole discretion. 

        (i)    Buyout
Provisions.    Subject to the provisions of Section 18(d), the Administrator may at any time offer to buyout for a
payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Holder at the time that such offer is made. 

        11.   Non-Transferability
of Options and Stock Purchase Rights.    Options and Stock Purchase Rights may not be sold,
pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Holder, only by
the Holder. 

        12.   Granting
of Awards to Independent Directors.    During the term of the Plan, (i) a person who is initially elected to the
Board as an Independent Director automatically shall be granted on the date of such initial election (A) an Option to purchase twenty thousand (20,000) shares of Common Stock (subject to
adjustment as provided in Section 18) ("Initial Option") and (B) five-thousand (5,000) shares of Restricted Stock (subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 18) ("Initial Restricted Stock Grant"), and (ii) each person who is an Independent Director immediately following an annual meeting of
stockholders (provided that, on such date, he or she shall have served on the Board for at least six (6) months prior to the date of such annual
meeting) automatically shall be granted on the date of such annual meeting (A) an Option to purchase five thousand (5,000) shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 18) ("Subsequent Option") and (B) one thousand six hundred seventy (1,670) shares of Restricted Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 18) ("Subsequent Restricted Stock Grant"). Members of the Board who are employees of the Company who subsequently retire from the Company and remain on the
Board will not receive an Initial Option grant or Initial Restricted Stock Grant pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, but to the extent that they are otherwise eligible, will
receive, after retirement from employment with the Company, Subsequent Options and Subsequent Restricted Stock Grants as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence (with the date of
retirement being deemed to be his or her date of initial election to the Board). 

        13.   Terms
of Awards Granted to Independent Directors. 

        (a)   Options.    The
per Share price of each Option granted to an Independent Director shall equal one-hundred percent
(100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date the Option is granted. Initial Options (as defined in Section 12) granted to Independent Directors shall vest and become
exercisable as follows: twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares subject to each Initial Option shall vest on the one year anniversary of the date of the Initial Option grant and one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the shares subject to each Initial Option (rounded down to the next whole number of shares) shall vest on the first day of each full month thereafter, 

9

 

such
that each Initial Option shall be one-hundred percent (100%) vested on the on the first day of the forty-eighth (48th) month following its date of grant. Subsequent Options (as
defined in Section 12) granted to Independent Directors shall vest and become exercisable as follows: one twelfth (1/12th) of the shares subject to each Subsequent Option (rounded
down to the next whole number of shares) shall vest on each monthly anniversary of the date of the Subsequent Option grant, such that each Subsequent Option shall be one-hundred percent
(100%) vested on the one year anniversary of its date of grant. Subject to Section 10, the term of each Option granted to an Independent Director shall be ten (10) years from the date
the Option is granted. No portion of an Option which is unexercisable at the time of an Independent Director's termination of membership on the Board shall thereafter become exercisable. 

        (b)   Restricted
Stock.    The Initial Restricted Stock Grant and Subsequent Restricted Stock Grant shall be pursuant to the terms of a
restricted stock agreement, which shall grant the Company the right to repurchase Shares issued pursuant to the Initial Restricted Stock Grant and Subsequent Restricted Stock Grant upon the
termination of the director's status as a Director for any reason (including death
or disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to such repurchase right shall be at par value of the Shares, and the repurchase right shall lapse as to 1/3 of the
Shares subject to the Initial Restricted Stock Grant or Subsequent Restricted Stock Grant, as applicable, on each annual anniversary of the date of grant, until such time as the repurchase right shall
lapse on the third anniversary of the date of grant. The Restricted Stock agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the
Administrator in its sole discretion. The Director shall have rights equivalent to those of a shareholder and shall be a shareholder when his or her Initial Restricted Stock Grant or Subsequent
Restricted Stock Grant, as applicable, is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. 

        14.   Stock
Purchase Rights. 

        (a)   Rights
to Purchase.    Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with Options granted under
the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing of the terms,
conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, if any, and the time within which such person
must accept such offer. The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the Administrator. 

        (b)   Repurchase
Right.    Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall grant the
Company the right to repurchase Shares acquired upon exercise of a Stock Purchase Right upon the termination of the purchaser's status as a Service Provider for any reason. The purchase price for
Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to such repurchase right, if any, and the rate at which such repurchase right shall lapse shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion,
and shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock purchase agreement. 

        (c)   Other
Provisions.    The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not
inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. 

        (d)   Rights
as a Shareholder.    Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the purchaser shall have rights equivalent to those of a
shareholder and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other
right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 18 of the Plan. 

10

 

        15.   Restricted
Stock Units. 

        Any
Holder selected by the Administrator may be granted an award of Restricted Stock Units in the manner determined from time to time by the Administrator. 

        (a)   The
vesting of Restricted Stock Units shall be determined by the Administrator and may be linked to specific performance criteria determined to be appropriate by the
Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator. Common Stock underlying a Restricted Stock Unit award will not be issued until
the Restricted Stock Unit award has vested, pursuant to a vesting schedule or performance criteria set by the Administrator. 

        (b)   Unless
otherwise provided by the Administrator, a Holder awarded Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights as a Company stockholder with respect to such Restricted
Stock Units until such time as the Restricted Stock Units have vested and the Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units has been issued. 

        (c)   All
Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as determined by the Administrator and shall be evidenced by a written Award
Agreement. Such Award Agreement may also include limitations regarding the distribution of payments due pursuant to such Restricted Stock Units and may provide that such payments are subject to an
election, by a certain date, of the Holder to whom such payment is to be awarded, to the extent such limitations and elections are required so as not cause any Restricted Stock Unit Award or the
shares of Common Stock or cash issuable pursuant to any Restricted Stock Unit Award (or other amounts issuable or distributable) to be includable in the gross income of the Holder under
Section 409A of the Code prior to such times or occurrence of such events, as permitted by the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder (including, without limitation,
Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury thereunder). 

        16.   Stock
Appreciation Rights. 

        A
Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to any Holder selected by the Administrator. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted (a) in connection and simultaneously with the
grant of an Option, (b) with respect to a previously granted Option, or (c) independent of an Option. A Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to such terms and conditions not
inconsistent with the Plan as the Administrator shall impose and shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. 

        (a)   Coupled
Stock Appreciation Rights.    A Coupled Stock Appreciation Right ("CSAR") shall be related to a particular Option and
shall be exercisable only when and to the extent the related Option is exercisable. 

        (i)    A
CSAR may be granted to a Holder for no more than the number of shares subject to the simultaneously or previously granted Option to which it is coupled. 

        (ii)   A
CSAR shall entitle the Holder (or other person entitled to exercise the Option pursuant to the Plan) to surrender to the Company unexercised a portion of the Option
to which the CSAR relates (to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company in exchange therefor an amount determined by multiplying the difference obtained by
subtracting the Option exercise price from the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the CSAR by the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the CSAR
shall have been exercised, subject to any limitations the Administrator may impose. 

        (b)   Independent
Stock Appreciation Rights.    An Independent Stock Appreciation Right ("ISAR") shall be unrelated to any Option and
shall have a term set by the Administrator. An 

11

 

ISAR
shall be exercisable in such installments as the Administrator may determine. An ISAR shall cover such number of shares of Common Stock as the Administrator may determine. The exercise price per
share of Common Stock subject to each ISAR shall be set by the Administrator; provided, however, that, the Administrator in its sole and absolute
discretion may provide that the ISAR may be exercised subsequent to a termination of employment or service, as applicable, or following an Acquisition of the Company, or because of the Holder's
retirement, death or disability, or otherwise. An ISAR shall entitle the Holder (or other person entitled to exercise the ISAR pursuant to the Plan) to exercise all or a specified portion of the ISAR
(to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company an amount determined by multiplying the difference obtained by subtracting the exercise price per share of the
ISAR from the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise of the ISAR by the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the ISAR shall have been exercised, subject
to any limitations the Administrator may impose. 

        (c)   Payment
and Limitations on Exercise, Distribution.    Payment of the amounts determined under Section 16(a) and 16(b) above
shall be in cash, in Common Stock (based on its Fair Market Value as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised) or a combination of both, as determined by the Administrator. 

        (i)    The
Administrator shall determine the terms and procedures regarding the payment of amounts determined under Section 16(a) and 16(b) above, and may provide that
such payments are subject to an election by the Holder to whom such payment is to be awarded, in accordance with this Section 16(c). Specifically, the Committee may provide for the deferral of
the payment issuable pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right at the election of the Holder to whom such award is to be awarded in accordance with the terms of this Section 16(c). 

        (A)  Subject
to the paragraph (B) below, any election of a Holder to defer the issuance of payment pursuant to Stock Appreciation Right shall be made not later than
the close of the taxable year preceding the first taxable year in which such Holder performs services for such Stock Appreciation Right or related Option, in the case of a CSAR. 

        (B)  In
the case of the first year in which a Holder becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, any election of such Holder to defer the payment pursuant to a Stock
Appreciation Right may be made with respect to services to be performed subsequent to the election within thirty (30) days after the date such Holder becomes eligible to participate in the
Plan. 

        (C)  A
Holder, under such terms as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion, may elect to receive the shares of Common Stock or cash issuable pursuant to a
Stock Appreciation Right upon one or more of the following events: 

        (i)    a
date specified in such election, 

        (ii)   the
termination of Holder, 

        (iii)  an
Unforeseeable Emergency of such Holder; 

        (iv)  a
Change in Control; 

        (v)   death;
or 

        (vi)  Qualified
Disability; 

provided,
however, in the case of a Holder who is a "key employee" as defined in Code Section 416(i) (determined without regard to paragraph (5) thereof) of the Company, the 

12

 

payment
issuable pursuant to Holder's termination shall not be made before the date which is six (6) months after the date of such termination. 

        (D)  A
deferral election made by a Holder shall be irrevocable and shall not be amended, modified or terminated by such Holder. 

        (E)  Prohibition
on Acceleration of Distributions.    The terms regarding the issuance of payments pursuant to a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be amended,
modified or terminated in any manner which permits the acceleration of the time or schedule of such issuance of shares of Common Stock or cash. 

        (F)  Limitation
of Distributions.    Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, shares of Common Stock or cash shall be issuable pursuant to a Stock
Appreciation Right at such times or upon such events as are specified in Section 16(c)(i)(C) above and the terms of the Award Agreement only to the extent the issuance or distribution at such
times or upon such events under such terms will not cause the Award or the shares of Common Stock or cash issuable pursuant to the Award (or other amounts issuable or distributable) to be includable
in the gross income of the Holder under Section 409A of the Code prior to such times or occurrence of such events, as permitted by the Code and the regulations and other guidance thereunder
(including, without limitation, Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury thereunder). 

        (G)  For
purposes of this Section 16, the "Unforeseeable Emergency" of a Holder shall mean a severe financial hardship to such Holder resulting from: (i) an
illness or accident of such Holder, or the spouse or a dependent (as defined in Code Section 152(a)) of such Holder, (ii) the loss of such Holder property due to casualty, or
(iii) other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the control of such Holder. For purposes of this Section 16, "Qualified Disability"
shall mean the Holder is "disabled," as such term is defined in Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury thereunder. For purposes
of this Section 16, "Change in Control" shall mean a change in control as defined as in Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations and other guidance issued by the Secretary of the
Treasury thereunder. 

        17.   Other
Awards. 

        (a)   Performance
Share Awards.    Any Holder selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Share awards which may be
denominated in a number of Shares or in a dollar value of Shares and which may be linked to any one or more specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a
specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. In making such determinations, the Committee shall consider (among such other factors as it deems relevant in light
of the specific type of award) the contributions, responsibilities and other compensation of the particular Holder. 

        (b)   Dividend
Equivalents.    Any Holder selected by the Committee may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared
on the shares of Stock that are subject to any Award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the Award is granted and the date the Award is exercised, vests or
expires, as determined by the Committee. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional Shares by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined
by the Committee. 

13

 

        (c)   Stock
Payments. 

        Any
Holder selected by the Committee may receive Stock Payments in the manner determined from time to time by the Committee. The number of shares shall be determined by the Committee and
may be based upon specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, determined on the date such Stock Payment is made or on any date thereafter. 

        18.   Adjustments
upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Asset Sale. 

        (a)   In
the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property),
recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase, liquidation,
dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of
warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, in the Administrator's sole discretion, affects the Common Stock
such that an adjustment is determined by the Administrator to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made
available under the Plan or with respect to any Award, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of: 

        (i)    the
number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Awards may be granted or awarded (including, but not limited to,
adjustments of the limitations in Section 3 on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued and adjustments of the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased by any Holder in
any calendar year pursuant to Section 6(c)); 

        (ii)   the
number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards; and 

        (iii)  the
grant or exercise price with respect to any Award. 

        (b)   In
the event of any transaction or event described in Section 18(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems
appropriate, and to the extent allowed by Section 409A of the Code and any applicable regulations thereunder, to the extent applicable, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior
to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Holder's request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator
determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect
to any Award granted or issued under the Plan or to facilitate such transaction or event: 

        (i)    To
provide for either the purchase of any such Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise of such Award or
realization of the Holder's rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested or the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in
its sole discretion; 

        (ii)   To
provide that such Award shall be exercisable as to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Award; 

        (iii)  To
provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options,
rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; 

14

 

        (iv)  To
make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and/or in the terms and conditions
of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Awards or Awards which may be granted in the future; and 

        (v)   To
provide that immediately upon the consummation of such event, such Award shall not be exercisable and shall terminate;  provided, that for a specified period of time prior to such event, such Award shall
be exercisable as to all Shares covered thereby, and the
restrictions imposed under an Award Agreement upon some or all Shares may be terminated and, in the case of Restricted Stock, some or all shares of such Restricted Stock may cease to be subject to
repurchase, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Award Agreement. 

        (c)   Subject
to Section 3, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Award Agreement or Common Stock
certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company. 

        (d)   If
the Company undergoes an Acquisition, then any surviving corporation or entity or acquiring corporation or entity, or affiliate of such corporation or entity, may
assume any Awards outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar stock awards (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the transaction described in this
subsection 18(d)) for those outstanding under the Plan. In the event any surviving corporation or entity or acquiring corporation or entity in an Acquisition, or affiliate of such corporation or
entity, does not assume such Awards or does not substitute similar stock awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to (i) Awards held by Holders in the Plan whose status as
a Service Provider has not terminated prior to such event, the vesting of such Awards (and, if applicable, the time during which such awards may be exercised) shall be accelerated and made fully
exercisable and all restrictions thereon shall lapse at least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and the Awards terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of such
Acquisition), and (ii) any other Awards outstanding under the Plan, such rights shall be terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of the Acquisition. Notwithstanding the assumption or
substitution of Options granted to Service Providers other than Independent Directors pursuant to the foregoing provisions, any Options or shares of Restricted Stock granted to Independent Directors
pursuant to Section 12 which are outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition shall not be assumed or substituted for, shall be accelerated and made fully vested and/or
exercisable, as applicable, at least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Acquisition and shall terminate if not exercised prior to the closing of such Acquisition. 

        (e)   The
existence of the Plan or any Award Agreement and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company 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 stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or
the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or
business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. 

        19.   Time
of Granting Awards.    The date of grant of an Award shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes
the determination granting such Award, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Award is so
granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant. 

15

 

        20.   Amendment
and Termination of the Plan. 

        (a)   Amendment
and Termination.    The Board may at any time wholly or partially amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. However,
without approval of the Company's stockholders given within twelve (12) months before or after the action by the Board, no action of the Board may, except as provided in Section 18,
increase the limits imposed in Section 3 on the maximum number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or extend the term of the Plan under Section 7. 

        (b)   Savings
Clause.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement relating to an outstanding Award,
if and to the extent the Administrator shall determine that the terms of any Award may result in the failure of the such Award to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, or
any applicable regulations or guidance promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury in connection therewith, the Administrator shall have authority to take such action to amend, modify, cancel or
terminate the Plan or any Award as it deems necessary or advisable, including without limitation: 

        (i)    Any
amendment or modification of the Plan or any Award to conform the Plan or such Award to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or any regulations or
other guidance thereunder (including, without limitation, any amendment or modification of the terms of any Award regarding vesting, exercise, or the timing or form of payment). 

        (ii)   Any
cancellation or termination of any unvested Award, or portion thereof, without any payment to the Holder holding such Award. 

        (iii)  Any
cancellation or termination of any vested Award, or portion thereof, with immediate payment to the Holder holding such Award of the amount otherwise payable upon
the immediate exercise of any such Award, or vested portion thereof, by such Holder. 

        (iv)  Any
such amendment, modification, cancellation, or termination of the Plan or any Award may adversely affect the rights of a Holder with respect to such Award without
the Holder's consent. 

        (c)   Stockholder
Approval.    The Board shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable
to comply with Applicable Laws. 

        (d)   Effect
of Amendment or Termination.    Except as provided in Section 18(b), above, no amendment, alteration, suspension or
termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Holder, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Holder and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Holder
and the Company. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator's
ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock granted or awarded under the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 

        (e)   Repricing
Prohibited.    Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, absent approval of the stockholders of the
Company no Award may be amended to reduce the per Share exercise price of the Shares subject to such Award below the per Share exercise price as of the date the Award is granted. In addition, absent
approval of the stockholders of the Company no Award may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Award having a higher per Share exercise price. 

        21.   Stockholder
Approval.    The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company's stockholders within twelve
(12) months after the date of the Board's adoption of the Plan. Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock may be granted or awarded prior to such stockholder approval, provided that
Options, Stock Purchase Rights and Restricted Stock not previously authorized under the Plan shall not be exercisable, shall not vest and the restrictions thereon shall not lapse prior 

16

 

to
the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders, and provided further that if such approval has not been obtained at the end of said twelve-month period, any Options, Stock Purchase Rights
and Restricted Stock previously granted or awarded but not previously authorized under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void. 

        22.   Inability
to Obtain Authority.    The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction,
which authority is deemed by the Company's counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to
issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. 

        23.   Reservation
of Shares.    The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such number of
Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. 

        24.   Investment
Intent.    The Company may require a Plan Holder, as a condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Award,
(i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Holder's knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably
satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the
merits and risks of exercising rights under any Award; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Holder is acquiring the stock subject to the Award for
the Holder's own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the stock. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be
inoperative if (A) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under the applicable Award has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement
under the Securities Act or (B) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then
applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to
comply with applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the stock. 

        25.   Governing
Law.    The validity and enforceability of this Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of
the State of Delaware without regard to otherwise governing principles of conflicts of law.
