 5.875% Senior Note due 2014 
  
 ACE INA Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the
“Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to below), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of Five Hundred Million Dollars
($500,000,000) on June 15, 2014 and to pay interest thereon from June 9, 2004 or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, payable semiannually on June 15 and December 15 in each year (each, an
“Interest Payment Date”), commencing December 15, 2004, at the rate of 5.875% per annum, until the principal hereof (and any Additional Amounts (as defined below)) is paid or duly made available for payment. Interest on this Note shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date or the maturity date falls on a day that is 
  

 not a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such
payment was due and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the maturity date, as the case may be, to such next Business Day. The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly
provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest,
which shall be June 1 or December 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder hereof on the relevant regular record date by virtue of having been such Holder, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered
at the close of business on a subsequent special record date (which shall be at least 10 days before the payment date) for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Company, notice whereof shall be given to the Holders of Notes of
this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in such Indenture. Any interest paid on this Note shall be increased to the extent necessary to pay Additional Amounts as set forth in this Note. 
  
 Payment of the principal of, interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect
of this Note will be made at the office or agency of the Company and the Guarantor (as defined below) maintained for that purpose in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the
time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company or the Guarantor, interest may be paid by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register; provided, further, that payment to DTC or any successor Depository may be made by wire transfer to the account designated by DTC or such successor depository in writing. 
  
 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company
(herein called the “Notes”), fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest by ACE Limited, a Cayman Islands company (the “Guarantor”), issued and to be issued in one or more series
under an Indenture, dated as of August 1, 1999 (herein called, together with all indentures supplemental thereto, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantor and J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (as successor to The
First National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement
of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited (subject to exceptions provided in the Indenture) to the aggregate principal amount specified in the Officer’s Certificate, dated June 9, 2004, establishing the terms of
the Notes pursuant to the Indenture. 
  

 3 

 The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company’s obligation to pay the
principal of, interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect of the Notes is unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantor pursuant to Article 16 of the Indenture. 
  
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
  
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company or the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series issued under the Indenture at any time by the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of not less than
a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities of any series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company or the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture
and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
  
 This Note is not subject to any sinking fund. 
  
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect of this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed. 
  
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth
therein and in this Note, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Security Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company and the Guarantor maintained for that purpose in any place
where the principal of, interest on or any Additional Amounts in respect of this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by,
the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees. 
  
 The Notes are issuable only in
registered form without coupons in the denominations specified in the Officer’s Certificate, dated June 9, 2004, establishing the terms of the Notes, all as more fully provided in the Indenture and such Officer’s Certificate. As provided
in the Indenture and in such Officer’s Certificate, and subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, such Officer’s Certificate and in this Note, the Notes are exchangeable for a like 
  

 4 

 aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series in different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holders
surrendering the same. 
  
 No service charge shall be made for any
such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith, other than in certain cases provided in the Indenture. 
  
 Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the
Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  
 The Notes are redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100 percent of
the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (excluding interest accrued to the Redemption Date) and discounted to Redemption Date on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

  
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any
Redemption Date, (1) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is
published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for
the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be
determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the
calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield-to-maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its
principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date. 
  
 “Business Day” means any calendar day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in New York, New York, and
on which commercial banks are open for business in New York, New York. 
  
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed. 
  

 5 

 “Comparable Treasury Price” means (1) the average of five Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations
for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

  
 “Independent Investment Banker” means either
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. or J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., and their respective successors, or, if both firms are unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing
appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Company. 
  
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., or their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S.
Government securities dealer in New York City, which we refer to as a “Primary Treasury Dealer”, the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any three other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Independent
Investment Banker after consultation with the Company. 
  
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date. 
  
 All payments on this Note will be made without withholding of any present or
future taxes or governmental charges of the Cayman Islands or Bermuda (each, a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the Company is required to do so by applicable law or regulation. 
  
 If the Company is required to withhold amounts, it will, subject to the limitations described below, pay to the Holder of
this Note additional amounts so that every net payment made to the Holder of this Note, after the withholding, will be the same amount provided for in this Note and the Indenture (“Additional Amounts”). 
  
 The Company will not be required to pay any Additional Amounts for (1) any
tax or governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the fact that the Holder of this Note: (a) was a resident of, or engaged in business or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, the relevant Taxing
Jurisdiction or otherwise had some connection with the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction other than the mere ownership of, or receipt of payment on, this Note, (b) presented this Note for payment in the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction, unless this Note
could not have been presented for payment elsewhere, or (c) presented this Note for payment more than 30 days after the date on which the payment became due unless the Holder of this Note would have been entitled to these Additional Amounts if the
Holder of this Note had presented this Note for payment within the 30-day period; (2) any estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax or other governmental charge; (3) any tax or other governmental charge that is
imposed or withheld because of failure by the Holder of this Note to comply with any reasonable request by the Company: (a) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the Holder of this Note or that of the beneficial
owner of this Note; or (b) to make any claim or satisfy any information or reporting requirement, which in 
  

 6 

 either case is required by the relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the tax or
other governmental charge; or (4) any combination of items (1), (2) or (3) above. 
  
 The Company will not pay Additional Amounts if the Holder of this Note is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of this Note if the beneficiary or partner or settlor would not have been
entitled to the Additional Amounts had it been the holder of this Note. 
  
 The Company will be entitled to redeem this Note, at its option, at any time as a whole but not in part, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if
any) to the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date), in the event that the Company or the Guarantor has become or would become obligated
to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to this Note, any Additional Amounts as a result of: (1) a change in or an amendment to the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of a Taxing Jurisdiction,
which change or amendment is announced after June 2, 2004; or (2) any change in or amendment to any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment is announced after June 2, 2004,
and, in each case, the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, cannot avoid such obligation by taking reasonable measures available to it. 
  
 The Indenture contains provisions whereby (i) the Company and the Guarantor may be discharged from their obligations with respect to the Notes (subject to
certain exceptions) or (ii) the Company and the Guarantor may be released from their obligations under specified covenants and agreements in the Indenture, in each case if the Company or the Guarantor irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or
Government Obligations, or a combination thereof, in an amount sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Notes of this series, and satisfies certain other conditions, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture. 
  
 This Note shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements and instruments made and to be performed wholly within such State. 
  
 All terms used in this Note without definition that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Shares issued upon exercise of Awards may be authorized but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock. The Shares may be authorized but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock. 
  
 If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, or is surrendered pursuant to an Option Exchange
Program, the unpurchased Shares which were 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
Award 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 forfeited back to the
Company or repurchased by the Company at a price not greater than their original exercise price and pursuant to the exercise of the Company’s repurchase rights or the forfeiture provisions under the Plan, 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 Code
Section 422. 
  
 4. Administration of the Plan. 
  
 (a) Administrator. Except to the extent otherwise provided below, the
Plan shall be administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the Board, which Committee shall be constituted to comply with Applicable Laws. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the
administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board (and references in this Plan to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as
may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, from and after the Public Trading Date, a Committee of the Board shall administer the Plan and the Committee shall consist solely of two or more Non-Employee
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, and such Committee shall be otherwise comprised to comply
with all Applicable Laws. 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 Non-Employee 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. In its absolute discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to
time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under the Plan except with respect to matters which under Rule 16b-3 or Section 162(m) of the Code, or any regulations or rules issued thereunder, are required to be determined in the sole
discretion of the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors. 
  
 (b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the
Plan and, in the case of a Committee, 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 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 Awards granted hereunder. Such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Awards may 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 and under what circumstances an
Option may be settled in cash under Section 7(f) instead of Common Stock; 
  
 (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 reduce the exercise price of any
Award to the then current Fair Market Value if the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock covered by such Award has declined since the date the Option was granted; 
  
 (ix) to initiate an Option Exchange Program; 
  

 (x) to allow Holders to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from
the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Award that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. 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; and 
  
 (xi) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted
pursuant to the Plan. 
  
 (c) Effect of Administrator’s
Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all Holders. 
  
 (d) Provisions Applicable to Section 162(m) Participants. 
  

(i) The Administrator, in its discretion, may determine whether an Award is to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section
162(m)(4)(C) of the Code. 
  
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything in
the Plan to the contrary, the Administrator may grant any Award to a Section 162(m) Participant, including Restricted Stock the restrictions with respect to which lapse upon the attainment of performance goals which are related to one or more of the
Performance Criteria and any performance or incentive award described in Section 9 that vests or becomes exercisable or payable upon the attainment of performance goals which are related to one or more of the Performance Criteria. 
  
 (iii) To the extent necessary to comply with the performance-based
compensation requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award granted under Sections 8 and 9 which may be granted to one or more Section 162(m) Participants, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of any
fiscal year in question or any other designated fiscal period or period of service (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Administrator shall, in writing, (A) designate one or more Section 162(m)
Participants, (B) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service, (C) establish the various performance targets, in terms of an objective formula or standard, and amounts of such
Awards which may be earned for such fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service, and (D) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the performance targets and the amounts of such Awards to be earned by each
Section 162(m) Participant for such fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service. Following the completion of each fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service, the Administrator shall certify in writing
whether the applicable performance targets have been achieved for such fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service. In determining the amount earned by a Section 162(m) Participant, the Administrator shall have the right to
reduce (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Administrator may deem relevant to the 

  

 
assessment of individual or corporate performance for the fiscal year or other designated fiscal period or period of service. 
  
 (iv) Furthermore, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any
Award, the Plan and any Award which is granted to a Section 162(m) Participant and is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in
Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for qualification as performance-based compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the
Code. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements. 
  
 5. Eligibility. 
  
 (a) General Eligibility. Awards may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. Each Non-Employee
Director of the Company shall be eligible to be automatically granted Options at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 7(i). 
  
 (b) No Right to Continuing Service. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon any Holder any right with respect to continuing the
Holder’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right or the Company’s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause. 
  
 (c) Award Limit. No Service Provider shall be granted, in any
calendar year, Awards to purchase more than 1,500,000 Shares; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply prior to the Public Trading Date and, following the Public Trading Date, the foregoing limitation shall not
apply until the earliest of: (i) the first material modification of the Plan (including any increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan in accordance with Section 3); (ii) the issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the Plan; (iii) the expiration of the Plan; (iv) the first meeting of stockholders at which Directors of the Company are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year following the calendar year in
which occurred the first registration of an equity security of the Company under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or (v) such other date required by Section 162(m) of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The foregoing
limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization as described in Section 12. For purposes of this Section 5(c), if an Option is canceled in the same calendar year it was granted (other
than in connection with a transaction described in Section 12), the canceled Option will be counted against the limit set forth in this Section 5(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. 
  
 6. Term of
Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under Section 14 of the 

  

 
Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incentive Stock Option may be granted under this Plan after the first to occur of (a) the expiration of ten (10)
years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or (b) the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Plan is approved by the Company’s stockholders under Section 21. 
  
 7. Terms of Options. 
  
 (a) Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. Each Option shall be designated in the applicable Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option
or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Holder during any
calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such Options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 5(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the
order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Shares is granted. 
  
 (b) Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be stated in the applicable Award Agreement; provided, however, that, in the case
of Incentive Stock Options, 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 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 Award Agreement. 

 
 (c) Option Exercise Price. 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 (provided, however, that the per share exercise price shall be no less than the par value of a Share, unless otherwise permitted by applicable
state law), and 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 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. 
  
 (ii) In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock
Option, the per Share exercise price shall be determined by the Administrator. 
  

 (iii) In the case of Options intended to qualify as performance-based compensation as described in
Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, 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. 
  
 (d) Consideration. 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 (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant). Such consideration may consist of (i) cash, (ii) check, (iii) with the consent of the
Administrator, a full recourse promissory note bearing interest (at no less than such rate as is a market rate of interest and which then precludes the imputation of interest under the Code) and payable upon such terms as may be prescribed by the
Administrator, (iv) with the consent of the Administrator, from and after the Public Trading Date, other Shares which (A) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Holder for more than six (6) months, or the requisite
period necessary to avoid a charge to the Company’s earnings for financial reporting purposes, on the date of surrender, and (B) 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, (v) with the consent of the Administrator, from and after the Public Trading Date, 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 (vi) with the consent of the Administrator, any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of
such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company. In the case of a promissory note, the Administrator may also prescribe the form of such note and the security to be given for such note. The Option may not be exercised, however,
by delivery of a promissory note or by a loan from the Company when or where such loan or other extension of credit is prohibited by law, and payment in the manner prescribed by the preceding sentences shall not be permitted to the extent that the
Administrator determines that payment in such manner may result in an extension or maintenance of credit, an arrangement for the extension of credit, or a renewal of an extension of credit in the form of a personal loan to or for any Director or
executive officer of the Company that is prohibited by Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act or other Applicable Law. 
  
 (e) Exercise of Option. 
  
 (i) Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Shareholder. Any Option granted hereunder shall be vested and exercisable according to the terms hereof at
such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, vesting of Options granted hereunder shall be tolled during any unpaid leave of absence. An
Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. 
  

 An Option shall be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (A) written or electronic notice of
exercise (in accordance with the Award Agreement) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, (B) such representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with Applicable
Laws, (C) upon the exercise of all or a portion of an unvested Option pursuant to Section 8(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 (D) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised, including payment of any applicable withholding tax. Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment
authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option shall be issued in the name of the Optionee or, if requested by the Holder, in the name of the Holder and his or her spouse.
Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder shall exist with
respect to the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date
is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 
  
 (ii) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If a Holder ceases to be a Service Provider other than by reason of the Holder’s death or Disability, such Holder may exercise his or her Option
within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the
absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Optionee’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 shall revert to the Plan. If, after termination, the Holder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered
by such Option shall revert to the Plan. 
  
 (iii) Disability
of Optionee. 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 Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested
on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12)
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 shall revert to 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 revert to the Plan. 
  

 (iv) Death of Optionee. If a Holder dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised
within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement, by the Holder’s estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but
in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the
Optionee’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 revert to 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 revert to the Plan. 
  
 (f) Buy out Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out 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. 
  
 (g) Regulatory Extension. A Holder’s Award 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 7(b) 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 Award 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 repurchase, forfeiture,
transfer or other restrictions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. 
  
 (i) Granting of Options to Non-Employee Directors. 
  
 (i) During the term of the Plan, a person who is initially elected to the Board after the Public Trading Date and who is a Non-Employee Director at the time of such initial election automatically shall be granted an
Option to purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12) on the date of such initial election (an “Initial Option”). In addition, during the term of the Plan, each Non-Employee Director
automatically shall be granted an Option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 12) on the date of each annual meeting of stockholders following the Public Trading Date (a “Subsequent
Option”); provided, however, that a person who is initially elected to the Board after the 

  

 
Public Trading Date at an annual meeting of stockholders and who is a Non-Employee Director at the time of such initial election shall receive only an
Initial Option on the date of such election and shall not receive a Subsequent Option until the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders following such initial election. 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 pursuant to the first sentence above, but to the extent that they are otherwise eligible, will receive, after retirement from employment with the Company,
Subsequent Options as described in the preceding sentence. All the foregoing Option grants authorized by this Section 7(i) are subject to stockholder approval of the Plan. 
  
 (ii) The price per share of the shares subject to each Option granted to a Non-Employee Director shall equal one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Initial Options granted to Non-Employee Directors shall become exercisable over four (4) years, with twenty-five percent (25%) of the shares subject to each Option becoming
exercisable on the one year anniversary of the date of grant and the remaining shares becoming exercisable in equal monthly installments on each monthly anniversary thereafter. Subsequent Options granted to Non-Employee Directors shall become
exercisable over four (4) years in equal monthly installments on each monthly anniversary of the date of grant. Subject to Sections 7(e)(ii), (iii) and (iv), the term of each Option granted to a Non-Employee Director shall be ten (10) years from the
date the Option is granted. 
  
 (j) Options in Lieu of
Compensation. Options may be granted under the Plan to Employees and Consultants in lieu of cash bonuses which would otherwise be payable to such Employees and Consultants and to Non-Employee Directors in lieu of directors’ fees which would
otherwise be payable to such Non-Employee Directors, pursuant to such policies which may be adopted by the Administrator from time to time. 
  
 8. Restricted Stock Awards. 
  
 (a) Rights to Purchase. Restricted Stock may be issued to Service Providers either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other Awards granted
under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Restricted Stock under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing or electronically 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; provided, however, that the purchase price
shall be no less than the par value of the Common Stock to be purchased, unless otherwise permitted by applicable state law. Restricted Stock may also be awarded in consideration for past services actually rendered to the Company for its benefit.
The offer shall be accepted by execution of an Award Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (b) Repurchase Option; Forfeiture. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Award Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option
exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the Holder’s service with the Company for any 

  

 
reason (including death or Disability). If no cash consideration was paid by the Holder upon issuance, a Holder’s rights in unvested Restricted Stock
shall be forfeited to the Company, without consideration, upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the Holder’s service with the Company for any reason (including death or Disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased by the
Company pursuant to such repurchase right and the rate at which such repurchase right or forfeiture provisions shall lapse shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in the Award Agreement;
provided, however, that, except with respect to shares of Restricted Stock granted to Section 162(m) Participants, by action taken after the Restricted Stock is issued, the Administrator may, on such terms and conditions as it may
determine to be appropriate, remove any or all of the restrictions imposed by the terms of the Award Agreement. Restricted Stock may not be sold or encumbered until all restrictions are terminated or expire. 
  
 (c) Other Provisions. The Award 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 Restricted Stock is issued, the Holder 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 Restricted Stock is
issued, except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan. 
  
 9. Performance
Awards, Dividend Equivalents, Deferred Stock and Stock Payments. 
  
 (a) Eligibility. One or more Performance Awards, Dividend Equivalents, awards of Deferred Stock and/or Stock Payments may be granted to any Service Provider whom the Administrator determines should receive such an Award. 

 
 (b) Performance Awards. 
  
 (i) Any Service Provider selected by the Administrator may be granted one or
more Performance Awards. The value of such Performance Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates
or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator. In making such determinations, the Administrator 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 Service Provider. 
  
 (ii) Without limiting Section 9(b)(i), the Administrator may grant Performance Awards to any 162(m) Participant in the form of a cash bonus payable upon the attainment of objective performance goals which are established by the
Administrator and relate to one or more of the Performance Criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator. 
  

 Any such bonuses paid to 162(m) Participants shall be based upon objectively determinable bonus formulas
established in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(d). Unless otherwise specified by the Administrator at the time of grant, the Performance Criteria with respect to a Performance Award payable to a 162(m) Participant shall be determined on
the basis of generally accepted accounting principles. 
  
 (c)
Dividend Equivalents. 
  
 (i) Any Service Provider
selected by the Administrator may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared on Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date a Stock Appreciation Right, Deferred Stock or
Performance Award is granted, and the date such Stock Appreciation Right, Deferred Stock or Performance Award is exercised, vests or expires, as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional
shares of Common Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (ii) Any Holder of an Option who is a Service Provider selected by the Administrator may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared
on Common Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date an Option is granted, and the date such Option is exercised, vests or expires, as determined by the Administrator. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be
converted to cash or additional shares of Common Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Administrator. 
  
 (iii) Dividend Equivalents granted with respect to Options intended to be qualified performance-based compensation for
purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code shall be payable, with respect to pre-exercise periods, regardless of whether such Option is subsequently exercised. 
  
 (d) Stock Payments. Any Service Provider selected by the Administrator may receive Stock Payments in the manner determined from time to time by the
Administrator. The number of shares shall be determined by the Administrator and may be based upon the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Administrator, determined on the date such Stock Payment
is made or on any date thereafter. 
  
 (e) Deferred Stock.
Any Service Provider selected by the Administrator may be granted an award of Deferred Stock in the manner determined from time to time by the Administrator. The number of shares of Deferred Stock shall be determined by the Administrator and may be
linked to the Performance Criteria or other 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 Deferred Stock award will not be issued until the Deferred Stock award has vested, pursuant to a vesting schedule or performance criteria set by the Administrator. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, a Holder of Deferred
Stock shall have no rights as a Company stockholder 

  

 
with respect to such Deferred Stock until such time as the Award has vested and the Common Stock underlying the Award has been issued. 
  
 (f) Term. The term of a Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent, award
of Deferred Stock and/or Stock Payment shall be set by the Administrator in its discretion. 
  
 (g) Exercise or Purchase Price. The Administrator may establish the exercise or purchase price of a Performance Award, shares of Deferred Stock or shares received as a Stock Payment; provided, however, that
such price shall not be less than the par value of a share of Common Stock, unless otherwise permitted by applicable state law. 
  
 (h) Exercise Upon Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. A Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent, award of Deferred Stock and/or Stock
Payment is exercisable or payable only while the Holder is a Service Provider, as applicable; provided, however, that the Administrator in its sole and absolute discretion may provide that the Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent,
award of Deferred Stock and/or Stock Payment may be exercised or paid subsequent to a termination of the Holder’s relationship as a Service Provider following a “change of control or ownership” (within the meaning of Section
1.162-27(e)(2)(v) or any successor regulation thereto) of the Company; provided, further, that except with respect to Performance Awards granted to Section 162(m) Participants, the Administrator in its sole and absolute discretion may
provide that Performance Awards may be exercised or paid following a termination of the Holder’s relationship as a Service Provider without cause, or following a change in control of the Company, or because of the Holder’s retirement,
death or Disability, or otherwise. 
  
 (i) Form of
Payment. Payment of the amount determined under Section 9(b) or 9(c) above shall be in cash, in Common Stock or a combination of both, as determined by the Administrator. To the extent any payment under this Section 9 is effected in Common
Stock, it shall be made subject to satisfaction of all provisions of Section 15. 
  
 10. Stock Appreciation Rights. 
  
 (a) Grant
of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to any Service Provider selected by the Administrator. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted (i) in connection and simultaneously with the grant of an Option, (ii) with
respect to a previously granted Option, or (iii) 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. 
  
 (b) Coupled Stock Appreciation Rights.

  
 (i) 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. 
  

 (ii) A CSAR may be granted to the Holder for no more than the number of shares subject to the
simultaneously or previously granted Option to which it is coupled. 
  
 (iii) 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. 
  
 (c) Independent Stock Appreciation Rights. 
  
 (i) An Independent Stock Appreciation Right (“ISAR”) shall be unrelated to any Option and shall have a term
set by the Administrator. An 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. An ISAR is exercisable only while the Holder is a Service Provider; provided that the Administrator may determine that the ISAR may be exercised subsequent to termination of the
Holder’s relationship as a Service Provider without cause, or following a change in control of the Company, or because of the Holder’s retirement, death or Disability, or otherwise. 
  
 (ii) 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. 
  
 (d) Payment and
Limitations on Exercise. 
  
 (i) Payment of the amounts
determined under Section 9(b)(iii) and 9(c)(ii) 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. To the
extent such payment is effected in Common Stock it shall be made subject to satisfaction of all provisions of Section 15. 
  
 (ii) Holders of Stock Appreciation Rights may be required to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of a
Stock Appreciation Right, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Administrator. 
  

 11. Non-Transferability of Awards. 
  
 (a) No Award under the Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other
than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, subject to the consent of the Administrator, pursuant to a DRO, unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions
applicable to such shares have lapsed. 
  
 (b) During the
lifetime of the Holder, only he or she may exercise an Award (or any portion thereof) granted to him or her under the Plan, unless it has been disposed of with the consent of the Administrator pursuant to a DRO. After the death of the Holder, any
exercisable portion of an Award may, prior to the time when such portion becomes unexercisable under the Plan or the applicable award Agreement, be exercised by his or her personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the
deceased Holder’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution 
  
 12. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Asset Sale. 
  
 (a) Subject to Section 12(e), 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 5(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) Subject to Sections 12(d) and (e), in the event of any transaction or event described in Section 12(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and
on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, 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; 
  
 (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.

  
 (c) Subject to Section 3, the Administrator may, in its sole
discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Award Agreement or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company. 
  
 (d) In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or any other entity or the
exchange of substantially all of the outstanding stock of the Company for shares of another entity or other property in which, after either transaction the prior shareholders of the Company own less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares of
the continuing or surviving entity, or in the event of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, (either event, a “Change of Control”), then each outstanding Option shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right
substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation or a Parent or a Subsidiary of the successor corporation 

  

 
refuses to assume or substitute for each outstanding Option, the Holders shall fully vest in and have the right to exercise each outstanding Option as to all
of the Shares covered thereby, including Shares as to which would not otherwise be vested or exercisable. If an Option becomes fully vested and exercisable in lieu of assumption or substitution in the event of a Change of Control, the Administrator
shall notify all Holders that all outstanding Options shall be fully exercisable for a period of at least fifteen (15) days prior to the closing of the Change of Control, and any Options that are not exercised within such period shall terminate
immediately prior to the Change of Control. For the purposes of this paragraph, all outstanding Options shall be considered assumed if, following the consummation of the Change of Control, the Option confers the right to purchase or receive, for
each Share subject to the Option immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities property) received in the Change of Control by holders of Common Stock for each Share held
on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Change of Control
is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Administrator may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of the Option, for each Share subject to the
Option, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent or Subsidiary equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Change of Control. 
  
 (e) With respect to Awards which are granted to Section 162(m) Participants
and are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(C), no adjustment or action described in this Section 12 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action
would cause such Award to fail to so qualify under Section 162(m)(4)(C), or any successor provisions thereto. No adjustment or action described in this Section 13 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such
adjustment or action would cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code. Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be authorized to the extent such adjustment or action would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16
or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 unless the Administrator determines that the Award is not to comply with such exemptive conditions. 
  
 13. Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights. The date of grant of an Award shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the
determination granting such Option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Service Provider to whom an Award is so granted within a reasonable time after
the date of such grant. 
  
 14. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

  
 (a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any
time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. 
  

 (b) Shareholder Approval. The Board shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment to the
extent necessary and desirable to comply with Section 422 of the Code or Applicable Laws. 
  
 (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. 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 Awards granted under
the Plan prior to the date of such termination. 
  
 15. Conditions Upon
Issuance of Shares. 
  
 (a) Legal Compliance. Shares
shall not be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Award unless the exercise of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares shall comply with Applicable Laws and shall be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with
respect to such compliance. 
  
 (b) Investment
Representations. As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Administrator may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and
without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required. 
  
 16. Tax Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to require payment in cash or deduction from other compensation payable to each Holder of any sums required by
federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award. The Administrator may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow such Holder to elect to have the
Company withhold shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under such Award (or allow the return of shares of Common Stock) having a Fair Market Value equal to the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the
number of shares of Common Stock which may be withheld with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Holder of such Award within six (6) months after such shares of Common Stock were
acquired by the Holder from the Company) in order to satisfy the Holder’s federal and state income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall be limited to the number of shares
which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax income and payroll tax purposes that are applicable
to such supplemental taxable income. 
  
 17. Loans. The Administrator may,
in its discretion, extend one or more loans to Service Providers in connection with the exercise or receipt of an Award granted or awarded under the Plan. The terms and conditions of any such loan shall be set by the Administrator. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no loan shall be made under this Section to the extent such loan shall result in an extension or maintenance of credit, an arrangement for the extension of credit, 

  

 
or a renewal of an extension of credit in the form of a personal loan to or for any Director or executive officer of the Company that is prohibited by
Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act or other Applicable Law. In the event that the Administrator determines in its discretion that any loan under this Section may be or will become prohibited by Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act or other Applicable
Law, the Administrator may provide that such loan shall be immediately due and payable in full and may take any other action in connection with such loan as the Administrator determines in its discretion to be necessary or appropriate for the
repayment, cancellation or extinguishment of such loan. 
  
 18. Section 16.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any individual who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive
rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded
hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. 
  
 19. 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. 
  
 20. 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. 
  
 21. Shareholder Approval. The Plan shall be subject to approval by the shareholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted.
Such shareholder approval shall be obtained in the degree and manner required under Applicable Laws. In addition, if the Board determines that Awards which may be granted to Section 162(m) Participants should continue to be eligible to qualify as
performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, the Performance Criteria must be disclosed to and approved by the Company’s stockholders no later than the first stockholder meeting that occurs in the fifth year following
the year in which the Company’s stockholders previously approved the Performance Criteria. 
  
 22. 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.
