FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This proxy statement contains statements that are forward-looking and as such are not historical facts. This includes, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations. These statements constitute projections, forecasts and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of performance. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these statements. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this proxy statement, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. When the Company discusses its strategies or plans, it is making projections, forecasts or forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to, the Company’s management. Actual results and stockholders’ value will be affected by a variety of risks and factors, including, without limitation, international, national and local economic conditions, merger, acquisition and business combination risks, financing risks, geo-political risks, acts of terror or war, and those risk factors described under (1) under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of (a) the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 20, 2025, and (b) the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 22, 2025; and (3) in this proxy statement and in other reports the Company files with the SEC. Many of the risks and factors that will determine these results and stockholders’ value are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict.

All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this proxy statement. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on the Company’s behalf are qualified in their entirety by this “Forward-Looking Statements” section.

RISK FACTORS

You should consider carefully all of the risks described below, together with the other information contained in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 20, 2025, in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 22, 2025, and in the other reports we file with the SEC before making a decision to invest in our securities. Furthermore, if any of the following events occur, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected or we could face liquidation. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. The risks and uncertainties described in our prospectus and other reports we filed with the SEC and below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results or result in our liquidation.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

These Questions and Answers are only summaries of the matters they discuss. They do not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read carefully the entire document, including the annexes to this proxy statement.

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

This proxy statement and the enclosed proxy card are being sent to you in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board for use at the Annual Meeting, or at any adjournments or postponements thereof. This proxy statement summarizes the information that you need to make an informed decision on the proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

As previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report filed on Form 8-K on February 21, 2025, on February 14, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed its previously announced business combination (the “Business Combination”) with OSR Holdings Co., Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea (“OSR”) pursuant to the Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2024, as amended on December 20, 2024 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, OSR, each stockholder of OSR that executed a Participating Joinder thereto (each such person, a “Participating Stockholder”), and each stockholder of OSR that executed a Non-Participating Joinder thereto (each such person, a “Non-Participating Stockholder”, and together with the Participating Stockholders, the “OSR Stockholders”).

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, we changed our name from Bellevue Life Sciences Acquisition Corp. to OSR Holdings, Inc. and changed the trading symbols of our common stock and warrants from “BLAC” and “BLACW,” to “OSRH” and “OSRHW,” respectively. In connection with the Closing, any Units (which were trading under the symbol “BLACU”) that had not yet separated, were separated into their component shares of common stock and warrants and ceased trading.

At the 2025 Annual Meeting, stockholders will be asked to vote on several corporate governance and administrative matters related to the post-combination company, including the election of directors, an advisory vote on executive compensation, the adoption of equity incentive sub-plans under the Company’s Omnibus Plan, and the approval of a potential financing transaction pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). Therefore, our Board is submitting the proposals described in this proxy statement for the stockholders to vote upon. These proposals are more fully described in this proxy statement.

Why does the Company need to hold an annual meeting?

The meeting is being held to satisfy the annual meeting requirements of Nasdaq. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a) requires that we hold an annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors within 12 months after our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

What is being voted on?

You are being asked to vote on each of the proposals listed below:

1. Proposal 1 — Director Proposal: A proposal to elect seven directors to the Company’s Board of Directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders following this Annual Meeting or until each such director’s successor is elected and qualified, subject to his earlier death, resignation or removal.

2. Proposal 2 — Executive Compensation Proposal: A proposal to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

3. Proposal 3 — Equity Plan Proposal: A proposal to approve compensation terms and adopt share-based incentive sub-plans pursuant to the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Plan.

common stock), in one or more non-public offerings, in an aggregate amount that may exceed 20% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of the date of issuance, at a price that is less than the lower of: (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement; or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement, as determined in accordance with Nasdaq rules.

When and where is the Annual Meeting?

The Annual Meeting will be held at 9 a.m. Eastern time, on September 17, 2025, at the office of the Company’s legal counsel, Drohan Lee, LLP, located at 5 Penn Plaza, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10001.

How do I vote?

If you are a holder of record of Company common stock as of the close of business on August 15, 2025, including those shares held as a constituent part of our units, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or by submitting a proxy for the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the Company urges you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may submit your proxy by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the accompanying pre-addressed postage-paid envelope. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person if you have already voted by proxy.

If your shares of Company common stock, including those shares held as a constituent part of our units, are held in “street name” by a broker or other agent, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

How do I change my vote?

If you have submitted a proxy to vote your shares and wish to change your vote, you may do so by delivering a later-dated, signed proxy card prior to the date of the Annual Meeting or by voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting alone will not change your vote.

You also may revoke your proxy by sending a notice of revocation to the Company at 10900 NE 4th Street, Suite 2300, Bellevue, WA 98004, Attn: Jun Chul Whang.

How are votes counted?

Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count “FOR” and “AGAINST” votes, abstentions and broker non-votes.

Will my shares be voted if I do not submit a proxy or vote in person?

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If your shares are registered in your name or if you have stock certificates, they will not be counted if you do not vote as described above under “How Do I Vote?” If your shares are held in “street name” and you do not provide voting instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares as described above under “How Do I Vote?”, the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares may generally vote your shares without instruction on routine matters but not on non-routine matters. A broker “non-vote” occurs when your broker submits a proxy for your shares but does not indicate a vote for a particular “non-routine” proposal because your broker does not have authority to vote on that proposal and has not received specific voting instructions from you. To ensure your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting in the manner that you desire, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee.

Table of Contents

What is a quorum requirement?

A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. Under our bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of one-third in voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at the meeting shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum.

Votes of stockholders of record who are present at the Annual Meeting in person or by proxy, abstentions, and broker non-votes are counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum exists. As of the Record Date, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of one-third of shares of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting would be required to achieve a quorum. If there is no quorum, the presiding officer of the Annual Meeting may adjourn the Annual Meeting to another date.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

Only holders of record of the Company’s common stock, including the public shares (including shares held as a constituent part of our units) and the private shares, as of the close of business on August 15, 2025, (the “record date”), are entitled to have their vote counted at the Annual Meeting and any adjournments thereof. As of the record date, there were 21,585,360 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name. If on the record date your shares or units were registered directly in your name with the Company’s transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the Company urges you to fill out and return the enclosed proxy card to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank. If on the record date your shares or units were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker or other agent on how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting in person. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other agent.

What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards, if your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast a vote with respect to all of your shares of common stock.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. The Company has engaged Advantage Proxy, Inc. (“Advantage Proxy”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. The Company has agreed to pay Advantage Proxy a fee of $5,500. The Company will also reimburse Advantage Proxy for reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses. In addition to these mailed proxy materials, our directors and executive officers may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. These parties will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. The Company may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other agents for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

Where do I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the inspector of election and published in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, which the Company is required to file with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

The Annual Meeting will be held at 9 a.m. Eastern time on September 17, 2025, at the office of the Company’s legal counsel, located at 5 Penn Plaza, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10001, to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

3. Proposal 3 — Equity Plan Proposal: A proposal to approve compensation terms and adopt share-based incentive sub-plans pursuant to the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Plan.

Voting Power; Record Date

You will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Annual Meeting if you owned our outstanding common stock, including as a constituent part of a unit, at the close of business on August 15, 2025, the record date for the Annual Meeting. You will have one vote per share for each share of common stock you owned at that time. Our warrants and rights do not carry voting rights.

At the close of business on the record date, there were 21,585,360 shares of common stock outstanding, each of which entitles its holder to cast one vote per share. The warrants and rights do not carry voting rights.

Votes Required

Approval of the Director Proposal will require a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

Approval of the Executive Compensation Proposal, Equity Plan Proposal and Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by stockholders represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting.

Voting

You can vote your shares at the Annual Meeting by proxy or in person.

You can vote by proxy by having one or more individuals who will be at the Annual Meeting vote your shares for you. These individuals are called “proxies” and using them to cast your vote at the Annual Meeting is called voting “by proxy.”

If you wish to vote by proxy, you must (i) complete the enclosed form, called a “proxy card,” and mail it in the envelope provided or (ii) submit your proxy by telephone or over the Internet (if those options are available to you) in accordance with the instructions on the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction card.

Table of Contents

If your shares are held in “street name” and you do not provide voting instructions to the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares as described above, the bank, broker or other nominee that holds your shares generally has discretion to vote your shares without instruction on routine matters but not on non-routine matters. Brokers and other nominees who are New York Stock Exchange members are expected to have discretionary voting power for both each of the Current Proposals. To ensure your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting in the manner that you desire, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee.

If you complete the proxy card and mail it in the envelope provided or submit your proxy by telephone or over the Internet as described above, you will designate Kuk Hyoun Hwang and Jun Chul Whang to act as your proxies at the Annual Meeting. One of them will then vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions you have given them in the proxy card or voting instructions, as applicable, with respect to the proposals presented in this proxy statement. Proxies will extend to, and be voted at, any adjournment(s) of the Annual Meeting.

Alternatively, you can vote your shares in person by attending the Annual Meeting in person.

A special note for those who plan to attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person: if your shares or units are held in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, please follow the instructions you receive from your broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares. You will not be able to vote at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from the record holder of your shares.

Our Board is asking for your proxy. Giving our Board your proxy means you authorize it to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting in the manner you direct. You may vote for or against any proposal or you may abstain from voting. All valid proxies received prior to the Annual Meeting will be voted. All shares represented by a proxy will be voted, and where a stockholder specifies by means of the proxy a choice with respect to any matter to be acted upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the specification so made.

Stockholders who have questions or need assistance in completing or submitting their proxy cards should contact our proxy solicitor, Advantage Proxy, at (877) 870-8565 (call toll-free), (206) 870-8565 (main line), or by sending an email to ksmith@advantageproxy.com.

Stockholders who hold their shares in “street name,” meaning the name of a broker or other nominee who is the record holder, must either direct the record holder of their shares to vote their shares or obtain a legal proxy from the record holder to vote their shares at the Annual Meeting.

Revocability of Proxies

Any proxy may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before the polls close at the Annual Meeting. A proxy may be revoked by filing with the Company, at OSR Holdings, Inc., 110900 NE 4th Street, Suite 2300, Bellevue, WA 98004, either a written notice of revocation bearing a date later than the date of such proxy or a subsequent proxy relating to the same shares or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not constitute a revocation of your proxy. If your shares are held in the name of a broker or other nominee who is the record holder, you must follow the instructions of your broker or other nominee to revoke a previously given proxy.

Attendance at the Annual Meeting

Only holders of common stock, their proxy holders and guests the Company may invite may attend the Annual Meeting. If you wish to attend the Annual Meeting but you hold your shares or units through someone else, such as a broker, please follow the instructions you receive from your broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares. You must bring a legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee holding your shares, confirming your beneficial ownership of the shares and giving you the right to vote your shares.

Solicitation of Proxies

Your proxy is being solicited by our Board on the proposals being presented to the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The Company has agreed to pay Advantage Proxy a fee of $5,500. The Company will also reimburse Advantage Proxy for reasonable and customary out-of-pocket expenses. In addition to these mailed proxy

materials, our directors and executive officers may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other means of communication. These parties will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies.

The cost of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing this proxy statement and the accompanying form of proxy, and the cost of soliciting proxies relating to the Annual Meeting, will be borne by the Company.

Some banks and brokers have customers who beneficially own common stock listed of record in the names of nominees. The Company intends to request banks and brokers to solicit such customers and will reimburse them for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for such solicitations. If any additional solicitation of the holders of our outstanding common stock is deemed necessary, the Company (through our directors and executive officers) anticipates making such solicitation directly.

No Right of Appraisal

The Company’s stockholders do not have appraisal rights under the DGCL in connection with the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, our stockholders have no right to dissent and obtain payment for their shares.

Other Business

The Company is not currently aware of any business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting other than the matters discussed in this proxy statement. The form of proxy accompanying this proxy statement confers discretionary authority upon the named proxy holders with respect to amendments or variations to the matters identified in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and with respect to any other matters which may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

THE DIRECTOR PROPOSAL

Board Size and Structure

Our Board currently consists of 8 directors. Our bylaws provide that the number of directors on our Board shall be fixed exclusively by resolution adopted by our Board. At its most recent meeting, the Company’s Board of Directors has fixed the number of members of the Board of Directors at 7 members.

When considering whether directors have the experience, qualifications, attributes or skills, taken as a whole, to enable our Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of our business and structure, the Board focuses primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth below. We believe that our directors provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of our business.

Vote Required of the Board of Directors

The election of the foregoing director nominees requires a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that, of the nine nominees standing for election, the seven director nominees receiving the highest number of affirmative votes will be elected as directors. You may vote “FOR” up to seven director nominees, withhold authority to vote your shares for all the director nominees or withhold authority to vote your shares with respect to any one or more of the director nominees. Withholding authority to vote your shares with respect to one or more director nominees will have no effect on the election of those nominees. If you hold your shares in “street name” and you do not instruct your broker how to vote in the election of directors, a broker non-vote will occur and no votes will be cast on your behalf. Broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of the nominees.

The existence of financial and personal interests of our directors and officers may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the directors or officers between what he or they may believe is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and what he or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that stockholders vote for the proposals.

The Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the stockholder’s choice of 7 out of the 9 Nominees.

As previously reported by the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 14, 2025, the Company held a special meeting of its stockholders on February 13, 2025 (the “February 13, 2025 Special Meeting”). At the February 13, 2025, Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Omnibus Plan”). A description of the material terms of the Omnibus Plan is set forth below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Omnibus Plan, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 14, 2025. The February 14, 2025, Form 8-K and the documents filed as exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

None of our named officers had been granted options, or received any other type of equity compensation, during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

Pension Benefits

Our named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under, any pension or retirement plan sponsored by us during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Table of Contents

Other Compensation and Benefits

All of our current named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, and vision plans, in each case on the same basis as all of our other employees. We pay the premiums for the medical, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment insurance for all of our employees, including our named executive officers. We generally do not provide perquisites or personal benefits to our named executive officers.

Equity Benefit Plans

We believe that our ability to grant equity-based awards is a valuable and necessary compensation tool that aligns the long-term financial interests of our employees, consultants, and directors with the financial interests of our stockholders. In addition, we believe that our ability to grant options and other equity-based awards helps us to attract, retain, and motivate employees, consultants, and directors, and encourages them to devote their best efforts to our business and financial success. The Omnibus Plan includes the features set forth below.

All unvested options shall be forfeited upon the participant’s termination. Vested options shall remain exercisable in accordance with the terms of the grant agreement unless subject to any clawback, recoupment, or forfeiture policy of the Company, which may be in effect from time to time, including as required by applicable law or stock exchange rules.

Anything else notwithstanding, the Options Sub-Plan is intended to comply in all respects with the Omnibus Plan and shall be interpreted as consistent with that intent. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the RSU Sub-Plan and the Omnibus Plan, the terms of the Omnibus Plan shall govern.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences of awards under the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Plan to participants and to the Company. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable Treasury regulations, administrative guidance, and judicial decisions in effect as of the date of this proxy statement. Changes in these laws or interpretations may affect the tax consequences described below.

This summary does not purport to be complete and does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular participants in light of their individual circumstances or to participants subject to special rules (e.g., certain expatriates, partnerships, or tax-exempt entities). In addition, this summary does not address the effects of state, local, or foreign tax laws. Participants are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of awards under the Omnibus Plan.

Table of Contents

Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”)

Under the Code, an option that qualifies as an “incentive stock option” (ISO) is generally not taxable to the participant at the time of grant or exercise. However, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the stock on the date of exercise may be an adjustment for alternative minimum tax (AMT) purposes. If the participant holds the shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO for at least one year after the date of exercise and two years after the grant date, the participant will recognize long-term capital gain or loss on the subsequent sale of the shares. If the holding periods are not met (a “disqualifying disposition”), the participant generally recognizes ordinary income at the time of sale equal to the lesser of (1) the fair market value of the shares at exercise minus the exercise price or (2) the sale price minus the exercise price.

Nonqualified Stock Options (“NSOs”)

For NSOs, the participant does not recognize income at the time of grant, but upon exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise is treated as ordinary income and subject to withholding taxes. The Company is generally entitled to a corresponding tax deduction in the same amount and year as the income recognized by the participant.

Restricted Stock and RSUs

A participant who receives a grant of restricted stock generally does not recognize income until the shares become vested (i.e., no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture), unless the participant makes an IRC §83(b) election within 30 days of the grant date to recognize income upon grant. At the time of vesting (or upon grant if an §83(b) election is made), the participant generally recognizes ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the stock. The Company generally is entitled to a corresponding deduction. For restricted stock units (RSUs), income is recognized at vesting and delivery of shares (or cash equivalent), and is treated as ordinary income.

Performance-Based Awards

Performance shares or performance units are generally subject to tax at the time of vesting or settlement. The participant recognizes ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares or cash received. The Company is generally entitled to a deduction equal to the income recognized.

Section 409A

To the extent any awards under the Omnibus Plan are subject to Section 409A of the Code (nonqualified deferred compensation), the awards must comply with Section 409A’s rules on deferral elections and distributions to avoid the imposition of additional taxes and penalties. The Company intends that awards under the Omnibus Plan will either comply with or be exempt from Section 409A.

Tax Deductibility under Section 162(m)

Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company’s deduction for compensation paid to certain covered employees (generally, the CEO, CFO, and the next three highest-paid executives) is limited to $1 million per year per covered employee, regardless of whether such compensation is performance-based. Although the Omnibus Plan permits the granting of performance-based awards, no assurance can be given that any compensation will be deductible.

Vote Required and Board of Directors’ Recommendation

The approval of the Equity Plan Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by stockholders represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes and abstentions will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of the proposal. The Board recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” the Equity Plan Proposal.

NASDAQ 20% ISSUANCE PROPOSAL

Overview

The Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal is for the shareholders to approve, for purposes of complying with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), the issuance of 20% or more of our issued and outstanding common stock to White Lion GBM Innovation Fund and/or its affiliates (“White Lion”). It is anticipated that such level of equity issuance may be met or exceeded in accordance with the exercise by the Board of the Company’s rights to sell company common shares to White Lion pursuant to that certain common stock equity line agreement by and between the Company and White Lion consisting of a Common Stock Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement both dated as of February 25, 2025 as amended and restated as of May 6, 2025, (collectively, the “ELOC Agreement”), establishing an “equity line” of investment (“ELOC”), in combination with the potential exercise by White Lion of its rights under the WL Warrant Agreement and WL Convertible Note Agreement as defined and described below.

Background Information

As previously disclosed on the Company’s Current Report filed on Form 8-K on February 28, 2025, on February 25, 2025, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Common Stock Purchase Agreement”) and a related registration rights agreement (the “White Lion RRA”) with White Lion. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and/or White Lion RRA. The full text of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and White Lion RRA were filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025. The Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025, and the documents filed as exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, following its closing and following the effective date of a resale registration statement registering the shares issuable to White Lion in accordance with the terms of the White Lion RRA, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require White Lion to purchase, from time to time, up to the lesser of (i) $78,900,000 in aggregate gross purchase price of newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) the Exchange Cap, in each case, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement.

The number of shares of Common Stock that the Company may require White Lion to purchase in any single sales notice will depend on a number of factors, including the type of purchase notice that the Company delivers to White Lion. For example: (1) if the Company were to deliver a Rapid Purchase Notice, the Company can require White Lion to purchase a number of shares equal to $2,000,000 divided by the average of the three (3) lowest traded prices of the Common Stock on the Rapid Purchase Notice Date; and (2) if the Company were to deliver a VWAP Purchase Notice, the Company can require White Lion to purchase a number of shares equal to $2,000,000 divided by the product of (i) the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Stock during the VWAP Purchase Valuation Period and (ii) ninety-seven percent (97%).

White Lion’s purchase obligations under a single Rapid Purchase Notice or a single VWAP Purchase Notice shall not exceed $2,000,000, and the maximum amount of shares of Common Stock the Company may require White Lion to purchase under a single VWAP Purchase Notice shall be the lesser of (A) 30% of the Average Daily Trading Volume or (B) $2,000,000 divided by the highest closing price of the Common Stock over the most recent five (5) Business Days immediately preceding White Lion’s receipt of the subject VWAP Purchase Notice.

The Common Stock Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2026 and (ii) the date when the Company files for bankruptcy, has a bankruptcy case filed against it, has a custodian appointed for it or its property, or assigns its assets to its creditors.

In consideration for White Lion’s commitments under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to White Lion the number of shares of Common Stock equal to $800,000 divided by the closing price of the Common Stock on the day that is the earlier of (i) the business day prior to effectiveness of the resale registration statement registering the shares issuable under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and (ii) the business day prior to the date that White Lion requests the issuance of such shares (the “Commitment Shares”).

Table of Contents

Concurrently with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into the White Lion RRA with White Lion, pursuant to which the Company agreed to file, within 30 days following the closing of the Business Combination (as defined in the White Lion RRA), an initial resale registration statement with the SEC covering the resale by White Lion of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations and interpretations.

The Common Stock Purchase Agreement was amended effective May 6, 2025, to incorporate the WL Warrants (see below) and the foregoing filing deadline was extended by mutual agreement of White Lion and the Company. The Common Stock Purchase Agreement specified that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no more than 19.99 percent of the company’s common stock would be issued to White Lion without first obtaining shareholder approval, as proposed herein.

The ELOC Agreement contains these and other customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and White Lion, limitations and conditions regarding sales of common stock, indemnification rights and other obligations of the parties. The foregoing descriptions of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, as amended, and the White Lion RRA are qualified in their entirety by the full text of such agreements. A copy of the May 6, 2025, Amendment to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.4 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 12, 2025. The Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025, and the documents filed as exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

Warrant Agreement

On May 6, 2025, in accordance with an amendment to the ELOC Agreement also executed on that date (see preceding section), the Company and White Lion entered into a Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “WL Warrant Agreement”), providing for the issuance of a warrant to purchase the Company’s common stock (“WL Warrant”) as further specified hereinbelow.

Pursuant and subject to the terms of the WL Warrant Agreement, White Lion has the right, but not the obligation, to at any time for a period of five years following its execution date, to subscribe for and purchase from the Company up to $4,000,000 worth, or the Available Share Amount (as defined in the WL Warrant Agreement and subject to adjustment thereunder), of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The purchase price of one share of Common Stock under the WL Warrant Agreement shall be initially equal to the Exercise Price, which shall be $1.584 or as otherwise defined therein subject to certain adjustment provisions.

A copy of the WL Warrant Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 12, 2025. The Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025, and the documents filed as exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

Note Purchase Agreement

Pursuant and subject to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement executed between the Company and White Lion on May 6, 2025, White Lion has agreed to loan the Company the principal amount of $1,110,000 at an interest rate of 5% per annum subject to two Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (each a “Convertible Note”) maturing on the date occurring Nine (9) months after the closing date of each respective loan. The first Convertible Note in the principal amount of $445,000 was executed by and between the Company and the White Lion on May 6, 2025. The second Convertible Note, constituting the balance of the principal amount under the Note Purchase Agreement, was executed by and between the Company and the White Lion on June 20, 2025.

The Company has agreed to allocate 10% of the proceeds from each purchase notice under the ELOC and/or Warrant exercise toward the repayment of the outstanding Convertible Note(s). At any time, White Lion may convert one or both Convertible Notes at 95% multiplied by the lowest Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) fifteen days prior to the conversion notice. The Company and White Lion have agreed that no more than 4.99% of the shares outstanding will be issued to White Lion, which amount may be adjusted to 9.99% upon 61 days’ prior written notice from White Lion.

The Note Purchase Agreement and each Convertible Note contains these and other customary representations, warranties and agreements of the Company and White Lion, limitations and conditions regarding sales of common stock, indemnification rights and other obligations of the parties.

Table of Contents

Copies of the Note Purchase Agreement and Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note issued May 6, 2025, between the Company and White Lion were filed as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 12, 2025. The Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025, and the documents filed as exhibits thereto are incorporated herein by reference.

Reasons for Seeking Approval of the Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and, as such, we are subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. We are seeking stockholder approval of the Convertible Note Offering Proposal in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires stockholder approval of transactions other than a public offering involving the sale or issuance by the issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance for a price that is less than the lower of: (i) the closing price of the common stock immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities; or (ii) the average closing price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities (the “Minimum Price”). Based upon Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), we cannot issue in excess of 3,853,467 shares of our common stock as of the date of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement upon conversion of the Note, exercise of the Warrant, unless the issuance of such excess shares are approved by our stockholders.

As noted above, because the ELOC Agreement accordingly prohibits our issuance of the company’s common equity in excess of 19.99% stockholder approval to exceed such level is first obtained, we are asking stockholders to approve the issuance of 20% or more of common stock to White Lion.

Our board of directors is not seeking the approval of our stockholders to authorize our entry into the ELOC Agreement, as we have already entered into the ELOC Agreement on February 25, 2025. We are only asking for approval to issue to White Lion, 20% or more of our issued and outstanding common stock as constituted on February 25, 2025.

Effect on Current Stockholders if the Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal is Approved

Each additional share of our common stock that would be issuable to White Lion would have the same rights and privileges as each share of our currently outstanding common stock. The issuance of shares of our common stock to White Lion pursuant to the terms of the ELOC Agreement will not affect the rights of the holders of our outstanding common stock, but such issuances will have a dilutive effect on the existing stockholders, including the voting power and economic rights of the existing stockholders, and may result in a decline in our stock price or greater price volatility in the short term. Further, any sales in the public market of our shares of common stock issuable to White Lion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our shares of common stock.

Vote Required

In order for this Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal to be approved, the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by stockholders represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting is required. The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the Nasdaq 20% Issuance Proposal.

In the event that the Plan, any Award, or any Award Agreement provides for any action to be taken by the Board or any determination to be made by the Board, such action may be taken or such determination may be made by the Committee constituted in accordance with this Section 3.1 if the Board has delegated the power and authority to do so to such Committee.

Each member of the Committee shall be a Non-Employee Director and satisfy the composition requirements of any Stock Exchange on which the Stock is listed.

Any action undertaken by any such officer of the Company in accordance with the Committee’s delegation of authority shall have the same force and effect as if undertaken directly by the Committee, and any reference in the Plan to the “Committee” shall, to the extent consistent with the terms and limitations of such delegation, be deemed to include a reference to each such officer.

4. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

4.1 Number of Shares of Stock Available for Awards. Subject to such additional shares of Stock as shall be available for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3(c), and subject to adjustment pursuant to Article 14, the maximum number of shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be equal to 6,300,000 shares of Stock. Such shares of Stock may be authorized and unissued shares of Stock, treasury shares of Stock or any combination of the foregoing, as may be determined from time to time by the Board or by the Committee. Any of the shares of Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan may be used for any type of Award under the Plan, and any or all of the shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be available for issuance pursuant to Incentive Stock Options.

4.2 Adjustments in Authorized Shares of Stock. In connection with mergers, reorganizations, separations or other transactions to which Code § 424(a) applies, the Committee shall have the right to cause the Company to assume awards previously granted under a compensatory plan of another business entity that is a party to such transaction and to grant Substitute Awards under the Plan for such awards. The Share Limit pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be increased by the number of shares of Stock subject to any such assumed awards and Substitute Awards. Shares available for issuance under a stockholder-approved plan of a business entity that is a party to such transaction (as appropriately adjusted, if necessary, to reflect such transaction) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the number of shares of Stock otherwise available for issuance under the Plan, subject to applicable rules of any Stock Exchange or Securities Market on which the Stock is listed or publicly traded.

4.3 Share Usage.

(a) Shares of Stock covered by an Award shall be counted as used as of the Grant Date for purposes of calculating the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under Section 4.1.

(b) Any shares of Stock that are subject to Awards, including shares of Stock acquired through dividend reinvestment pursuant to Article 10, shall be counted against the Share Limit set forth in Section 4.1 as one share of Stock for every one share of Stock subject to an Award. The number of shares of Stock subject to an Award of SARs shall be counted against the Share Limit set forth in Section 4.1 as one share of Stock for every one share of Stock subject to such Award regardless of the number of shares of Stock actually issued to settle such SARs upon the exercise of the SARs. At least the target number of shares of Stock issuable under an Award that is subject to vesting, exercisability or settlement based on the achievement of performance goals shall be counted against the Share Limit set forth in Section 4.1 as of the Grant Date, but such number shall be adjusted to equal the actual number of shares of Stock issued upon settlement of the Award to the extent different from such target number of shares of Stock.

(c) If any shares of Stock covered by an Award granted under the Plan are not purchased or are forfeited or expire or if an Award otherwise terminates without delivery of any Stock subject thereto or is settled in cash in lieu of shares, then the number of shares of Stock counted against the Share Limit with respect to such Award shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture, termination, expiration or settlement, again be available for making Awards under the Plan.

(d) The number of shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall not be increased by the number of shares of Stock (i) tendered, withheld or subject to an Award granted under the Plan surrendered in connection with the purchase of shares of Stock upon exercise of an Option, (ii) that were not issued upon the net settlement or net exercise of a Stock-settled SAR granted under the Plan, (iii) deducted or delivered from payment of an Award granted under the Plan in connection with the Company’s tax withholding obligations as provided in Section 16.3 or (iv) purchased by the Company with proceeds from Option exercises.

5. TERM, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

5.1 Term. The Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date, subject to approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders within 12 months of the Effective Date.

If the Stockholders do not approve the Plan within 12 months of the Effective Date, any Awards made under the Plan on or after the Effective Date shall not be exercisable, settleable or deliverable, except to the extent such Awards could have otherwise been made under the

5.2 Amendment, Suspension and Termination. The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan; provided that, with respect to Awards previously granted under the Plan, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of any Grantee affected thereby, impair the rights or obligations under any such Award. The effectiveness of any amendment to the Plan shall be conditioned on approval of such amendment by the Company’s stockholders to the extent provided by the Board or required by Applicable Laws; provided that no amendment shall be made to the no-repricing provisions of Section 3.4, the Option pricing provisions of Section 8.1 or the SAR pricing provisions of Section 9.1 without the approval of the Company’s stockholders.

6. AWARD ELIGIBILITY AND LIMITATIONS

6.1 Eligible Grantees. Subject to this Article 6, Awards may be made under the Plan to any Service Provider, as the Committee shall determine and designate from time to time, and any other individual whose participation in the Plan is determined to be in the best interests of the Company by the Committee.

6.2 Stand-Alone, Additional, Tandem and Substitute Awards. Subject to Section 3.4, Awards granted under the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, (a) any other Award, (b) any award granted under another plan of the Company, an Affiliate or any business entity that has been a party to a transaction with the Company or an Affiliate or (c) any other right of a Grantee to receive payment from the Company or an Affiliate. Such additional, tandem, exchange or Substitute Awards may be granted at any time. If an Award is granted in substitution or exchange for another Award or for an award granted under another plan of the Company, an Affiliate or any business entity that has been a party to a transaction with the Company or an Affiliate, the Committee shall require the surrender of such other Award or award under such other plan in consideration for the grant of such exchange or Substitute Award. In addition, Awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash payments under other plans of the Company or an Affiliate. Notwithstanding Sections 8.1 and 9.1, but subject to Section 3.4, the Option Price of an Option or the SAR Price of a SAR that is a Substitute Award may be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the original Grant Date; provided that such Option Price or SAR Price is determined in accordance with the principles of Code § 424 for any Incentive Stock Option and consistent with Code § 409A for any other Option or SAR.

7. AWARD AGREEMENT

Each Award granted pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, which shall be in such forms as the Committee from time to time determines. Award Agreements utilized under the Plan from time to time or at the same time need not contain similar provisions but shall be consistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Award of Options shall specify whether such Options are intended to be Nonqualified Stock Options or Incentive Stock Options. In the absence of such specification, such Options shall be deemed to constitute Nonqualified Stock Options. In the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and an Award Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

8. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

8.1 Option Price. The Option Price of each Option shall be fixed by the Committee and stated in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option. Except in the case of Substitute Awards, the Option Price of each Option shall be at least the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date (provided that, in the event that a Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, the Option Price of an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date). In no case shall the Option Price of any Option be less than the par value of one share of Stock.

Subject to Sections 8.3 and 14.3, each Option granted under the Plan shall become vested or exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Committee and stated in the Award Agreement, which may include the achievement of performance goals. However, no Option shall be granted to Grantees who are entitled to overtime under Applicable Laws that shall vest or be exercisable within a six-month period starting on the Grant Date.

8.3 Term. Each Option granted under the Plan shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder shall cease, on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date of such Option, or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Committee and stated in the Award Agreement relating to such Option (provided that, in the event that the Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date of such Option). To the extent deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee to reflect differences in local law, tax policy or custom with respect to any Option granted to a Grantee who is a foreign national or is a natural Person who is employed outside the United States, such Option may terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder may cease, upon the expiration of a period longer than ten years from the Grant Date of such Option as the Committee shall determine.

8.4 Termination of Service. Each Award Agreement with respect to the grant of an Option shall set forth the extent to which the Grantee shall have the right to exercise such Option following termination of such Grantee’s Service, it at all. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, need not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to the Plan and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of Service.

8.5 Limitations on Exercise of Option. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, after the occurrence of an event referred to in Article 14 that results in the termination of such Option.

8.6 Method of Exercise. Subject to Article 12 and Section 16.3, an Option that is exercisable may be exercised by the Grantee’s delivery to the Company or its designee or agent of notice of exercise on any business day, at the Company’s principal office or the office of such designee or agent, on the form specified by the Company and in accordance with any additional procedures specified by the Committee. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Stock with respect to which such Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price of the shares of Stock for which such Option is being exercised, plus the amount (if any) of federal and other taxes that the Company may, in its judgment, be required to withhold with respect to the exercise of such Option.

8.7 Rights of Holders of Options. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee or other Person holding or exercising an Option shall have none of the rights of a stockholder of the Company (for example, the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the shares of Stock subject to such Option, to direct the voting of the shares of Stock subject to such Option or to receive notice of any meeting of the Company’s stockholders) until the shares of Stock subject thereto are fully paid and issued to such Grantee or other Person. Except as provided in Article 14, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights with respect to any shares of Stock subject to an Option for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of such shares of Stock.

8.8 Delivery of Stock. Promptly after the exercise of an Option by a Grantee and the payment in full of the Option Price with respect thereto, such Grantee shall be entitled to receive such evidence of such Grantee’s ownership of the shares of Stock subject to such Option as shall be consistent with Section 3.6.

8.9 Transferability of Options. Except as provided in Section 8.10, during the lifetime of a Grantee of an Option, only such Grantee (or, in the event of such Grantee’s legal incapacity or incompetency, such Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise such Option. Except as provided in Section 8.10, no Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

8.10 Family Transfers. If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement and by the Committee, in its sole discretion, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Option that is not an Incentive Stock Option to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 8.10, a transfer “not for value” is a transfer that is a gift, a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights or a transfer to an entity in which more than

Annex A-11

Table of Contents

50% of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in such entity (unless Applicable Laws do not permit such transfer). Following a transfer under this Section 8.10, any such Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable thereto immediately prior to such transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred Options shall be prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 8.10 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The provisions of Section 8.4 relating to termination of Service shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Grantee of the Option, following which such Option shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent, and for the periods specified, in Section 8.4.

8.11 Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. An Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option only (a) if the Grantee of such Option is an Employee of the Company or any corporate Subsidiary, (b) to the extent specifically provided in the related Award Agreement and (c) to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time such Option is granted) of the shares of Stock with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options held by such Grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Company and its Affiliates) does not exceed $100,000. Except to the extent provided in the regulations under Code § 422, this limitation shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

8.12 Notice of Disqualifying Disposition. If any Grantee disposes of shares of Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option under the circumstances provided in Code § 421(b) (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), such Grantee shall notify the Company of such disposition immediately but in no event later than ten days thereafter.

9. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SARS

9.1 Right to Payment and SAR Price. A SAR shall confer on the Grantee to whom it is granted a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (a) the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of exercise, over (b) the SAR Price as determined by the Committee. The Award Agreement for a SAR shall specify the SAR Price, which shall be no less than the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date of such SAR. SARs may be granted in tandem with all or part of an Option granted under the Plan or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option, in combination with all or any part of any other Award or without regard to any Option or other Award, provide that a SAR that is granted in tandem with all or part of an Option shall have the same term, and expire at the same time, as the related Option. A SAR that is granted subsequent to the Grant Date of a related Option must have a SAR Price that is no less than the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the Grant Date of such SAR.

9.2 Other Terms. The Committee shall determine, on the Grant Date or thereafter, the time or times at which, and the circumstances under which, a SAR may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future Service requirements), the time or times at which SARs shall cease to be or become exercisable following termination of Service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, method of settlement, form of consideration payable in settlement, method by or forms in which shares of Stock shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Grantees, whether or not a SAR shall be granted in tandem or in combination with any other Award and any and all other terms and conditions of any SAR. However, no SARs shall be granted to Grantees who are entitled to overtime under Applicable Laws that shall vest or be exercisable within a six-month period starting on the Grant Date.

9.3 Term. Each SAR granted under the Plan shall terminate, and all rights thereunder shall cease, on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date of such SAR or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Committee and stated in the Award Agreement relating to such SAR.

9.4 Rights of Holders of SARs. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee or other Person holding or exercising a SAR shall have none of the rights of a stockholder of the Company (for example, the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the shares of Stock underlying such SAR, to direct the voting of the shares of Stock underlying such SAR or to receive notice of any meeting of the Company’s stockholders) until the shares of Stock underlying such SAR, if any, are issued to such Grantee or other Person. Except as provided in Article 14, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights with respect to any shares of Stock underlying a SAR for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of such shares of Stock, if any.

Annex A-12

Table of Contents

9.5 Transferability of SARs. Except as provided in Section 9.6, during the lifetime of a Grantee of a SAR, only the Grantee (or, in the event of such Grantee’s legal incapacity or incompetency, such Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise such SAR. Except as provided in Section 9.6, no SAR shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

9.6 Family Transfers. If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement and by the Committee, in its sole discretion, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of a SAR to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 9.6, a transfer “not for value” is a transfer that is a gift, a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights or a transfer to an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in such entity (unless Applicable Laws do not permit such transfer). Following a transfer under this Section 9.6, any such SAR shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to such transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred SARs shall be prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 9.6 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

10. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RSUS

10.1 Grant of Restricted Stock and RSUs. Awards of Restricted Stock and RSUs may be made for consideration or for no consideration, other than the par value of the shares of Stock, which shall be deemed paid by past Service or, if so provided in the related Award Agreement or a separate agreement, the promise by the Grantee to perform future Service to the Company or an Affiliate.

10.2 Restrictions. At the time a grant of Restricted Stock or RSUs is made, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, establish a Restricted Period applicable to such Restricted Stock or RSUs and prescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the Restricted Period, including the achievement of corporate or individual performance goals, which may be applicable to all or any portion of such Restricted Stock or RSUs as provided in Article 11. Awards of Restricted Stock and RSUs may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the Restricted Period or prior to the satisfaction of any other restrictions prescribed by the Committee with respect to such Awards.

10.3 Registration; Restricted Stock Certificates. Pursuant to Section 3.6, to the extent that ownership of Restricted Stock is evidenced by a book-entry registration or direct registration (including transaction advices), such registration shall be notated to evidence the restrictions imposed on such Award of Restricted Stock under the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. Subject to Section 3.6 and the immediately following sentence, the Company may issue, in the name of each Grantee to whom Restricted Stock has been granted, certificates representing the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Grant Date of such Restricted Stock. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement with respect to an Award of Restricted Stock that either the Secretary of the Company shall hold such certificates for such Grantee’s benefit until such time as such shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited to the Company or the restrictions applicable thereto lapse and such Grantee shall deliver a stock power to the Company with respect to each certificate or such certificates shall be delivered to such Grantee, provided that such certificates shall bear legends that comply with Applicable Laws and make appropriate reference to the restrictions imposed on such Award of Restricted Stock under the Plan and such Award Agreement.

10.4 Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement and subject to the restrictions set forth in the Plan, any applicable Company program, and the applicable Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock shall have the right to vote such shares of Restricted Stock and the right to receive any dividend payments or distributions declared or paid with respect to such shares of Restricted Stock. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement evidencing a grant of Restricted Stock that any cash dividend payments or distributions paid on Restricted Stock shall be reinvested in shares of Stock, which may or may not be subject to the same vesting conditions and restrictions as applicable to such underlying shares of Restricted Stock or any dividend payments or distributions declared or paid on shares of Restricted Stock shall only be made or paid upon satisfaction of the vesting conditions and restrictions applicable to such shares of Restricted Stock. Dividend payments or distributions declared or paid on shares of Restricted Stock that vest or are earned based on the achievement of performance goals shall not vest unless such performance goals for such shares of Restricted Stock are achieved, and if such performance goals are not achieved, the Grantee of such shares of Restricted Stock

Annex A-13

Table of Contents

shall promptly forfeit and, to the extent already paid or distributed, repay to the Company such dividend payments or distributions. All stock dividend payments or distributions, if any, received by a Grantee with respect to shares of Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of stock, or other similar transaction shall be subject to the same vesting conditions and restrictions as applicable to such underlying shares of Restricted Stock.

10.5 Rights of Holders of RSUs. A holder of RSUs shall have no rights other than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. RSUs represent unfunded and unsecured obligations of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement. Holders of RSUs shall have no rights as stockholders of the Company (for example, the right to receive dividend payments or distributions attributable to the shares of Stock underlying such RSUs to direct the voting of the shares of Stock underlying such RSUs, or to receive notice of any meeting of the Company’s stockholders).

10.6 Termination of Service. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, in another agreement with the Grantee, or otherwise in writing after such Award Agreement is issued, but prior to termination of Grantee’s Service, upon the termination of such Grantee’s Service, any Restricted Stock or RSUs held by such Grantee that have not vested, or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited. Upon forfeiture of such Restricted Stock or RSUs, the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect thereto, including any right to vote such Restricted Stock or any right to receive dividends, with respect to such Restricted Stock or RSUs.

10.7 Purchase of Restricted Stock and Shares of Stock Subject to RSUs. The Grantee of an Award of Restricted Stock or vested RSUs shall be required, to the extent required by Applicable Laws, to purchase such Restricted Stock or the shares of Stock subject to such vested RSUs from the Company at a purchase price equal to the greater of (a) the aggregate par value of the shares of Stock represented by such Restricted Stock or such vested RSUs or (b) the purchase price, if any, specified in the Award Agreement relating to such Restricted Stock or such vested RSUs. Such purchase price shall be payable in a form provided in Article 12 or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in consideration for Service rendered or to be rendered by the Grantee to the Company or an Affiliate.

10.8 Delivery of Shares of Stock. Upon the expiration or termination of any Restricted Period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Committee, including, without limitation, any performance goals or delayed delivery period, the restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock or RSUs settled in shares of Stock shall lapse and, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a book-entry or direct registration (including transaction advices) or a certificate evidencing ownership of such shares of Stock shall, consistent with Section 3.6, be issued, free of all such restrictions, to the Grantee thereof or such Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be. Neither the Grantee, nor the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, shall have any further rights with regard to an RSU once the shares of Stock represented by such RSU have been delivered in accordance with this Section 10.8.

11. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OTHER EQUITY-BASED AWARDS

The Committee may, in its sole discretion, grant Awards in the form of Other Equity-Based Awards, as deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan. Awards granted pursuant to this Article 11 may be granted with vesting, value or payment contingent on the achievement of one or more performance goals. The Committee shall determine the terms and conditions of Other Equity-Based Awards on the Grant Date or thereafter. Unless the Committee provides otherwise in an Award Agreement, in another agreement with the Grantee, or otherwise in writing after such Award Agreement is issued, but prior to termination of Grantee’s Service, upon the termination of a Grantee’s Service, any Other Equity-Based Awards held by such Grantee that have not vested, or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited. Upon forfeiture of any Other Equity-Based Award, the Grantee thereof shall have no further rights with respect to such Other Equity-Based Award.

Annex A-14

12. FORMS OF PAYMENT

12.1 General Rule. Payment of the Option Price for the shares of Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the purchase price, if any, for Restricted Stock or vested RSUs shall be made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to the Company.

12.2 Surrender of Shares of Stock. To the extent that the applicable Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares of Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the purchase price, if any, for Restricted Stock or vested RSUs may be made all or in part through the tender or attestation to the Company of shares of Stock, which shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which such Option Price or purchase price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of such tender or attestation.

12.3 Cashless Exercise. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws and to the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares of Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form acceptable to the Committee) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the proceeds of such sale to the Company in payment of such Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 16.3.

12.4 Other Forms of Payment. To the extent that the applicable Award Agreement so provides or unless otherwise specified in an Award Agreement, payment of the Option Price for shares of Stock purchased pursuant to exercise of an Option or the purchase price, if any, for Restricted Stock or vested RSUs may be made in any other form that is consistent with Applicable Laws, including (a) with respect to Restricted Stock or vested RSUs only, Service rendered or to be rendered by the Grantee thereof to the Company or an Affiliate and (b) with the consent of the Company, by withholding the number of shares of Stock that would otherwise vest or be issuable in an amount equal in value to the Option Price or purchase price or the required tax withholding amount.

13. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

13.1 General. The Company shall not be required to offer, sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Award, whether pursuant to the exercise of an Option or a SAR, the settlement of a RSU or otherwise, if the offer, sale or issuance of such shares of Stock would constitute a violation by the Grantee, the Company, an Affiliate or any other Person of any provision of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws or of Applicable Laws, including any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares of Stock subject to an Award on any Stock Exchange or Securities Market or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the offering, sale, issuance or purchase of shares of Stock in connection with any Award, no shares of Stock may be offered, sold or issued to the Grantee or any other Person under such Award, whether pursuant to the exercise of an Option or a SAR, the settlement of a RSU or otherwise, unless such listing, registration or qualification shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of such Award. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the exercise of any Option or any SAR that may be settled in shares of Stock or the delivery of any shares of Stock underlying an Award, unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock subject to such Award, the Company shall not be required to offer, sell or issue such shares of Stock unless the Committee receives evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other Person exercising such Option or SAR or accepting delivery of such shares may acquire such shares of Stock pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination by the Committee in connection with the foregoing shall be final, binding and conclusive. The Company may register, but shall in no event be obligated to register, any shares of Stock or other securities issuable pursuant to the Plan pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or a SAR or the issuance of shares of Stock or other securities issuable pursuant to the Plan or any Award to comply with any Applicable Laws. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option or SAR that may be settled in shares of Stock shall not be exercisable until the shares of Stock subject to such Option or SAR are registered under the securities laws thereof or are exempt from such registration, the exercise of such Option or SAR under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply shall be deemed to be conditioned on the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.

Annex A-15

Table of Contents

13.2 Rule 16b-3. During any time when the Company has any class of common equity securities registered under Exchange Act § 12, it is the intention of the Company that Awards pursuant to the Plan and the exercise of Options and SARs that would otherwise be subject to Exchange Act § 16(b) shall qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Committee does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, such provision or action shall be deemed inoperative with respect to such Awards to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws and deemed advisable by the Committee and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Committee may exercise its discretion to modify the Plan in any respect necessary or advisable in its judgment to satisfy the requirements of or to permit the Company to avail itself of the benefits of the revised exemption or its replacement.

14. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

14.1 Changes in Stock. If the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares or kind of Capital Stock or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock or other increase or decrease in shares of Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, the number and kinds of shares of Capital Stock for which grants of Options and other Awards may be made under the Plan, including the Share Limit set forth in Section 4.1, which includes the number and kinds of issued shares of Capital Stock by which the Plan reserve may be increased annually, shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Committee. In addition, the number and kind of shares of Capital Stock for which Awards are outstanding shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Committee so that the proportionate interest of the Grantee therein immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options or SARs shall not change the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of such outstanding Options or SARs, as applicable, but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the per share Option Price or SAR Price, as the case may be. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as an increase in shares effected without receipt of consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any distribution to the Company’s stockholders of securities of any other entity or other assets (including an extraordinary dividend, but excluding a non-extraordinary dividend, declared and paid by the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Board or the Committee constituted pursuant to Section 3.1.2 shall, in such manner as the Board or the Committee deems appropriate, adjust the number and kind of shares of Capital Stock subject to outstanding Awards and the aggregate and per share Option Price of outstanding Options and the aggregate and per share SAR Price of outstanding SARs as required to reflect such distribution.

14.2 Transactions That Do Not Constitute a Change in Control. Subject to Section 14.3, if the Company is the surviving entity in any reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities that does not constitute a Change in Control, any Award granted pursuant to the Plan shall pertain to and apply to the Capital Stock to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award would have been entitled immediately following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, with a corresponding proportionate adjustment of the per share Option Price or SAR Price of any outstanding Option or SAR so that the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price thereafter shall be the same as the aggregate Option Price or SAR Price of the shares of Stock remaining subject to the Option or SAR as in effect immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation. Subject to any contrary language in an Award Agreement, any restrictions applicable to such Award shall apply as well to any replacement shares of Capital Stock subject to such Award received by the Grantee as a result of such reorganization, merger or consolidation. In the event of any reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company referred to in this Section 14.2, any Awards subject to vesting, exercisability or settlement based on the achievement of performance goals shall be adjusted (including any adjustment to the performance goals applicable to such Awards deemed appropriate by the Committee) so as to apply to the Capital Stock that a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Awards would have been entitled to receive immediately following such reorganization, merger or consolidation.

Annex A-16

Table of Contents

14.3 Change in Control in which Awards are not Assumed. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in which outstanding Awards are not being assumed or continued, the following provisions shall apply to such Awards, to the extent not assumed or continued:

(a) Immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control, in each case with the exception of Awards subject to vesting, exercisability or settlement based on the achievement of performance goals, all outstanding shares of Restricted Stock and all RSUs shall be deemed to have vested, all shares of Stock or cash subject to such Awards shall be delivered and either or both of the following actions shall be taken:

(i) At least 15 days prior to the scheduled consummation of such Change in Control, all Options and SARs outstanding under the Plan shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable for a period of 15 days. Any exercise of an Option or SAR during this 15-day period shall be conditioned on the consummation of the applicable Change in Control and shall be effective only immediately before the consummation thereof. Upon consummation of such Change in Control, the Plan and all outstanding but unexercised Options and SARs shall terminate, with or without consideration (including, without limitation, consideration in accordance with Section 14.3(a)(ii)) as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. The Committee shall send notice of an event that shall result in such a termination to all Persons who hold Options and SARs not later than the time at which the Company gives notice thereof to its stockholders.

(ii) The Committee may elect, in its sole discretion, to cancel any outstanding Awards of Options, SARs, Restricted Stock or RSUs and pay or deliver, or cause to be paid or delivered, to the holder thereof an amount in cash or Capital Stock having a value (as determined by the Committee acting in good faith), in the case of Restricted Stock or RSUs, equal to the formula or fixed price per share paid to holders of shares of Stock pursuant to such Change in Control and, in the case of Options or SARs, equal to the product of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Options or SARs multiplied by the amount, if any, by which (1) the formula or fixed price per share paid to holders of shares of Stock pursuant to such transaction exceeds (2) the Option Price or SAR Price applicable to such Options or SARs.

(b) For Awards subject to vesting, exercisability or settlement based on the achievement of performance goals, actual performance to date shall be determined as of a date reasonably proximate to the date of consummation of the Change in Control as determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, and that level of performance thus determined shall be treated as achieved immediately prior to occurrence of the Change in Control. For purposes of the preceding sentence, if, based on the discretion of the Committee, actual performance is not determinable, the Awards shall be treated as though the target performance has been achieved. After application of this Section 14.3(b), if any Awards arise from application of this Article 14, such Awards shall be settled under the applicable provision of Section 14.3(a).

14.4 Change in Control in which Awards are Assumed. Except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control in which outstanding Awards are being assumed or continued, the Plan and the Options, SARs, Restricted Stock, RSUs and Other Equity-Based Awards granted under the Plan shall continue in the manner and under the terms so provided in the event of any Change in Control to the extent that provision is made in writing in connection with such Change in Control for the assumption or continuation of such Options, SARs, Restricted Stock, RSUs and Other Equity-Based Awards or for the substitution for such Options, SARs, Restricted Stock, RSUs and Other Equity-Based Awards of new stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity-based awards relating to the Capital Stock of a successor entity or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number of shares (disregarding any consideration that is not common stock) and exercise prices of options and stock appreciation rights.

14.5 Adjustments. Adjustments under this Article 14 related to shares of Stock or other Capital Stock of the Company shall be made by the Committee, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share. The Committee may provide in the applicable Award Agreement as of the Grant Date for different provisions

Annex A-17

Table of Contents

to apply to an Award in place of those provided in Sections 14.1, 14.2, 14.3 and 14.4. This Article 14 shall not limit the Committee’s ability to provide for alternative treatment of Awards outstanding under the Plan in the event of a change in control event involving the Company that is not a Change in Control.

14.6 No Limitations on Company. The making of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets (including all or any part of the business or assets of any Subsidiary or other Affiliate) or to engage in any other transaction or activity.

15. PARACHUTE LIMITATIONS

If any Grantee is a disqualified individual as defined in Code § 280G(c), then, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or of any Other Agreement to the contrary and notwithstanding any Benefit Arrangement, any right of such Grantee to any exercise, vesting, payment or benefit under the Plan shall be reduced or eliminated (a) to the extent that such right to exercise, vesting, payment or benefit, taking into account all other rights, payments or benefits to or for the Grantee under the Plan, all Other Agreements and all Benefit Arrangements, would cause any exercise, vesting, payment or benefit to such Grantee under the Plan to be considered a parachute payment (as defined by Code § 280G(b)(2)) and (b) if, as a result of receiving such parachute payment, the aggregate after-tax amounts received by the Grantee from the Company under the Plan, all Other Agreements and all Benefit Arrangements would be less than the maximum after-tax amount that could be received by the Grantee without causing any such payment or benefit to be considered a parachute payment.

Except as required by Code § 409A or to the extent that Code § 409A permits discretion, the Committee shall have the right, in the Committee’s sole discretion, to designate those rights, payments or benefits under the Plan, all Other Agreements and all Benefit Arrangements that should be reduced or eliminated so as to avoid having such rights, payments or benefits be considered a parachute payment. To the extent any payment or benefit constitutes deferred compensation under Code § 409A, to comply with Code § 409A, except as otherwise provided in an applicable agreement between a Grantee and the Company or an Affiliate, the Company shall instead accomplish such reduction by first reducing or eliminating any cash payments (with the payments to be made furthest in the future being reduced first), then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Awards subject to vesting, exercisability or settlement based on the achievement of performance goals, then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Options or SARs, then by reducing or eliminating any accelerated vesting of Restricted Stock or RSUs, then by reducing or eliminating any other remaining parachute payments.

16. GENERAL PROVISIONS

16.1 Disclaimer of Rights. No provision in the Plan, any Award, or any Award Agreement shall be construed (a) to confer on any individual the right to remain in the Service of the Company or an Affiliate, (b) to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company or an Affiliate either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any Person at any time, or (c) to terminate any Service or other relationship between any Person and the Company or an Affiliate. In addition, notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, in another agreement with the Grantee, or otherwise in writing, no Award granted under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Grantee, so long as such Grantee continues to provide Service. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to the Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts provided herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan and Awards shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any amounts to a third-party trustee or otherwise to hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any Grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan.

16.2 Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the right and authority of the Board or the Committee to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to one or more classes of individuals or specifically to one or more particular individuals) as the Board or the Committee in their discretion determine desirable.

Annex A-18

16.3 Withholding Taxes. The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any federal, state, local or foreign taxes of any kind required by Applicable Laws to be withheld with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award or upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option or SAR, settlement of a RSU or pursuant to any other Award. At the time of such vesting, lapse of restrictions, exercise or settlement, the Grantee shall pay in cash to the Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or such Affiliate may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. If there is a same-day sale of shares of Stock subject to an Award, the Grantee shall pay such withholding obligation on the day on which such same-day sale is completed. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or an Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such withholding obligation, in whole or in part, by causing the Company or such Affiliate to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee or by delivering to the Company or such Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so withheld or delivered shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligation. The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or such Affiliate as of the date on which the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 16.3 may satisfy such Grantee’s withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements. The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be withheld from any Award to satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding requirements upon the exercise, vesting, lapse of restrictions or settlement applicable to any Award or payment of shares of Stock pursuant to such Award, as applicable, may not exceed such number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory amount required by the Company or the applicable Affiliate to be withheld and paid to any such federal, state, local or foreign taxing authority with respect to such exercise, vesting, lapse of restrictions, settlement or payment of shares of Stock. However, for so long as Accounting Standards Update 2016-09 or a similar rule remains in effect, the Board or the Committee has full discretion to choose, or to allow a Grantee to elect, to withhold a number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value that is greater than the applicable minimum statutory required withholding obligation (but such withholding may in no event be in excess of the maximum required statutory withholding amounts in such Grantee’s relevant tax jurisdiction).

16.4 Captions. The use of captions in the Plan or any Award Agreement is for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or such Award Agreement.

16.5 Construction. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in the Plan to “including” shall mean “including without limitation.”

16.6 Other Provisions. Each Award granted under the Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

16.7 Number and Gender. With respect to words used in the Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, and the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, as the context requires.

16.8 Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement is determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of the Plan and Award Agreement shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.

16.9 Governing Law. The Plan and the instruments evidencing the Awards shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, other than any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of the Plan and the instruments evidencing any Awards to the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction.

16.10 Foreign Jurisdictions. To the extent the Committee determines that the material terms set by the Committee imposed by the Plan preclude the achievement of the material purposes of the Plan in jurisdictions outside the United States, the Committee shall have the authority and discretion to modify those terms and provide for such additional terms and conditions as the Committee determines to be necessary, appropriate or desirable to accommodate differences in local law, policy or custom or to facilitate administration of the Plan. The Committee may adopt or approve sub-plans, appendices or supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions

Annex A-19

of the Plan as in effect for any other purposes. The special terms and any sub-plans, appendices, supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions, however, shall not include any provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of the Plan as in effect, unless the Plan could have been amended to eliminate such inconsistency without further approval by the Company’s stockholders.

16.11 Language. If the Plan or any other document related to the Plan is translated into a language other than English, and if the translated version is different from the English version, the English language version shall take precedence. By acceptance of the Award, the Participant confirms having read and understood the documents relating to the Plan that were provided in English, including, without limitation, the Plan and the Award Agreement, and waives any requirement for the Company or its Affiliates to provide these documents in any other language.

16.12 Code § 409A. The Plan is intended to comply with Code § 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance with Code § 409A. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the short-term deferral period as defined under Code § 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless Applicable Laws require otherwise. Any grant of an Option or SAR pursuant to the Plan is intended to comply with the “stock rights” exemption from Code § 409A. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Code § 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six-month period immediately following the Grantee’s Separation from Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of the Grantee’s Separation from Service (or the Grantee’s death, if earlier).

Furthermore, notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, in the case of an Award that is characterized as deferred compensation under Code § 409A, and pursuant to which settlement and delivery of the cash or shares of Stock subject to the Award is triggered based on a Change in Control, in no event shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred for purposes of such settlement and delivery of cash or shares of Stock if the transaction is not also a “change in the ownership or effective control of” the Company or “a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of” the Company as determined under Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5) (without regard to any alternative definition thereunder). If an Award characterized as deferred compensation under Code § 409A is not settled and delivered on account of the provision of the preceding sentence, the settlement and delivery shall occur on the next succeeding settlement and delivery triggering event that is a permissible triggering event under Code § 409A. No provision of this paragraph shall in any way affect the determination of a Change in Control for purposes of vesting in an Award that is characterized as deferred compensation under Code § 409A.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on any Grantee under Code § 409A, and neither the Company or an Affiliate nor the Board or the Committee shall have any liability to any Grantee for such tax or penalty.

16.13 Limitation on Liability. No member of the Board or the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, neither the Company, an Affiliate, the Board, the Committee nor any person acting on behalf of the Company, an Affiliate, the Board or the Committee shall be liable to any Grantee or to the estate or beneficiary of any Grantee or to any other holder of an Award under the Plan by reason of any acceleration of income or any additional tax (including any interest and penalties), asserted by reason of the failure of an Award to satisfy the requirements of Code §§ 422 or 409A, by reason of Code § 4999 or otherwise asserted with respect to the Award, provided, that this Section 16.13 shall not affect any of the rights or obligations set forth in an applicable agreement between the Grantee and the Company or an Affiliate.
