QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE SPECIAL MEETING

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

The Board of Directors of the Company is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Special Meeting to be held on October 20, 2026. This proxy statement summarizes the information you need to vote. These materials are first being mailed or made available to stockholders on or about [●], 2026. A preliminary proxy statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or about September 25, 2026.

What am I being asked to vote on?

You are being asked to vote on:

●

Proposal 1: An amendment to the 2026 Equity Incentive Plan increasing the shares reserved and available for issuance by 5,315,000 shares, from 685,000 to 6,000,000 (after giving effect to the reverse stock split).

●

Proposal 2: An adjournment proposal, if necessary to solicit additional proxies.

Who is entitled to vote?

Holders of record of our common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at the close of business on the Record Date of October 5, 2026 are entitled to vote. As of the Record Date, [●] shares of Common Stock were outstanding. Each share is entitled to one vote on each matter presented at the Special Meeting.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence, in person (or virtually, as applicable) or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting constitutes a quorum. Abstentions are counted toward the quorum. Because neither proposal is a routine matter, we do not expect broker non-votes, and shares held in street name for which no voting instructions are given generally will not be counted toward the quorum. A quorum is required for business to be conducted at the Special Meeting.

What vote is required for each proposal?

Proposal 1 (Plan Amendment): The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal is required. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1. Stockholder approval of the Plan Amendment is also required under Section 711 of the NYSE American Company Guide.

Proposal 2 (Adjournment): The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal is required. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 2.

Can my broker vote my shares without instructions?

No. Both proposals are “non-routine” matters under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange governing broker discretionary voting. If you hold your shares through a bank, broker or other nominee and do not provide voting instructions, your shares will not be voted on either proposal, resulting in a “broker non-vote.” Your broker can vote your shares only if you provide it with specific instructions. We encourage you to provide instructions to your broker so that your shares are voted.

How does the Board recommend I vote?

The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR Proposal 1 and FOR Proposal 2.

How do I vote?

If you are a stockholder of record (your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company), you may vote:

●

By Mail: Complete, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the postage-prepaid envelope provided.

●

By Telephone: Follow the instructions on your proxy card.

●

By Internet: Follow the instructions on your proxy card.

●

In Person: Attend the Special Meeting and vote your shares directly.

If you are a beneficial owner (your shares are held in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee), your bank, broker or nominee will provide instructions on how to vote.

Can I change or revoke my proxy?

Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change or revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by: (i) signing and submitting a new, later-dated proxy card; (ii) submitting a new proxy by telephone or Internet; (iii) delivering a written notice of revocation to our Secretary at 850 New Burton Road, Suite 201, Dover, Delaware 19904; or (iv) attending the Special Meeting and voting in person. Your attendance at the Special Meeting alone will not revoke your proxy. If you are a beneficial owner, follow the instructions provided by your bank, broker or nominee to change your vote.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

The Company will bear the entire cost of this proxy solicitation, including the preparation, printing, assembly and mailing of this proxy statement and related materials. Our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies in person, by telephone, by mail or electronically, for no additional compensation. We have not retained a proxy solicitor but may do so if we determine that additional solicitation efforts are necessary.

How will my proxy be voted if I submit it but do not specify my vote?

If you submit a signed proxy without specifying how you want to vote, your shares will be voted FOR Proposal 1 and FOR Proposal 2.

Where can I find the results of the Special Meeting?

We will report the voting results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days after the Special Meeting. The Form 8-K will be available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on our investor relations webpage.

PROPOSAL 1

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE 2026 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Overview

We are asking our stockholders to approve an amendment to our 2026 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance thereunder by 5,315,000 shares, from 685,000 shares to 6,000,000 shares, in each case as adjusted for our one-for-ten reverse stock split effected on September 9, 2026 (the “Amendment”). The full text of the Amendment is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement. The Plan, as originally adopted, is attached as Annex B, together with a note describing the amendment approved by our stockholders on June 26, 2026.

The Board adopted the Amendment on September 24, 2026, subject to and conditioned upon stockholder approval. The Amendment will become effective on the date it is approved by our stockholders.

Background and History of the Plan

The Plan was adopted by the Board on March 20, 2026 and approved by our stockholders at a special meeting on April 10, 2026, with 1,390,000 shares of Common Stock initially reserved for issuance on a pre-split basis (139,000 shares after giving effect to the reverse stock split). At our annual meeting held on June 26, 2026, our stockholders approved an amendment increasing the shares reserved and available for issuance to 6,850,000 shares on a pre-split basis, equivalent to 685,000 shares after giving effect to the reverse stock split. The Plan replaced the Company’s prior 2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (1) for purposes of new awards; no further awards may be granted under the 2019 Plan, and all outstanding awards under the 2019 Plan remain outstanding and subject to their existing terms.

As of September 24, 2026, approximately 680,173 shares reserved under the Plan had been issued in settlement of awards, and approximately 4,827 shares remained available for future grants under the Plan, according to the reserve report of our transfer agent.

Reasons for the Amendment

The Board believes that equity compensation is an important tool for attracting and retaining the employees, directors and consultants whose contributions are essential to our success. The Board is recommending the Amendment for the following reasons:

Few shares remain available. Only approximately 4,827 shares remain available for future grants under the Plan.

Business needs. Following our acquisitions of Zorronet Ltd. and a majority interest in Dr. Frucht Systems Ltd. in April 2026, we have [●] employees across our operations in Israel and the United States, and the Board expects to make equity awards to retain personnel of the acquired businesses and to attract additional talent as we build our defense and homeland security platform.

Competitive compensation. Equity compensation is a customary and expected element of total compensation in the technology and defense sectors. Without shares to grant, we would be unable to offer competitive equity-based incentives to existing and prospective employees, directors and consultants, placing us at a disadvantage relative to our competitors.

Evergreen Provision. The Plan contains an automatic annual share increase beginning January 1, 2027 (described below under “Plan Description—Evergreen Provision”), but that provision does not take effect until January 1, 2027. Without the Amendment, we would be unable to make sufficient equity awards to meet our anticipated business needs prior to that date.

If the Amendment is not approved by our stockholders, the Plan will continue in effect with its current share reserve, and we will be unable to make sufficient equity awards to meet our anticipated business needs until shares become available under the Evergreen Provision on January 1, 2027.

Dilution

The 5,315,000 additional shares represent approximately [●]% of the [●] shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date. We expect the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock to increase to approximately 50 to 60 million by the end of 2026, primarily as a result of the exercise of warrants held by Mandragola Ltd., and the Board determined the size of the increase with that expected share count in mind. The Evergreen Provision will also increase the shares reserved under the Plan on each January 1, beginning January 1, 2027, by 4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the preceding December 31, as described below. If the Amendment is approved and all 5,315,000 additional shares are ultimately issued, existing stockholders will experience dilution of their proportionate voting power and economic interest in the Company. The Board has considered this dilution in recommending the Amendment and believes that the anticipated benefits of the Amendment outweigh the potential dilutive effect.

Plan Description

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Plan. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Plan attached as Annex B to this proxy statement. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this summary have the meanings given to them in the Plan.

Purpose

The purpose of the Plan is to attract, retain and motivate employees, directors, consultants and advisors by enabling them to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company, and to align their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.

Eligibility

All employees, officers, directors, consultants, agents, advisors and independent contractors of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to receive awards under the Plan.

Administration

The Plan is administered by the Board, which may delegate authority to the Compensation Committee. The plan administrator has broad discretion to select participants, determine the type and size of awards, establish performance goals, interpret the Plan, and adopt rules for its administration. The plan administrator’s decisions are final and binding.

Types of Awards

The Plan permits the grant of: (i) Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); (ii) Non-qualified Stock Options (“NQSOs”); (iii) Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”); (iv) Restricted Stock; (v) Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”); (vi) Performance Awards; and (vii) other stock-based awards.

Shares Available; Recycling

As currently in effect, 685,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for issuance under the Plan. If the Amendment is approved, the total reserve will be increased to 6,000,000 shares. Shares subject to awards that expire, are cancelled, forfeited, terminated or settled in cash without the delivery of shares are generally returned to the pool and become available for future grants. Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations or to pay the exercise price of an award do not become available for future grants.

Evergreen Provision

Beginning on January 1, 2027, the number of shares reserved under the Plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year through January 1, 2036 by an amount equal to 4% of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 31 of the preceding year, or such lesser number as the Board may determine prior to the relevant January 1. The first automatic increase will occur on January 1, 2027. The Evergreen Provision is not affected by the Amendment.

Market Value of Common Stock

The closing price of our Common Stock on the NYSE American on [●], 2026 was $[●] per share.

Stock Options

The exercise price per share of a stock option must be at least 100% of the Fair Market Value (generally, the closing price on the NYSE American) of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant, and 110% in the case of an ISO granted to a 10% stockholder. The maximum term of a stock option is ten years (five years for ISOs granted to 10% stockholders). Options vest as determined by the plan administrator. The Plan prohibits the repricing of outstanding options or SARs without stockholder approval.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock and RSUs may be granted subject to vesting conditions, including time-based vesting, performance conditions, or a combination. Participants holding restricted stock have voting and dividend rights (subject to the vesting conditions); holders of RSUs generally do not. Vested RSUs are settled in shares of Common Stock or, at the plan administrator’s discretion, cash.

Minimum Vesting

Awards granted under the Plan are subject to a minimum vesting period of one year from the date of grant, except that (i) a portion of awards equal to up to 5% of the total shares reserved under the Plan may be granted without regard to the minimum vesting period, and (ii) the plan administrator may accelerate vesting in connection with a change in control, the participant’s death or disability, or other special circumstances.

Change in Control

Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) in which outstanding awards are assumed or substituted by the successor entity, and the participant’s service is subsequently terminated without Cause or for Good Reason within 24 months following the Change in Control, such awards will become fully vested and exercisable (double-trigger acceleration). The plan administrator may take other actions with respect to outstanding awards in connection with a Change in Control, including accelerating vesting, requiring settlement, or providing for the cancellation of awards for cash consideration.

Clawback

All awards under the Plan are subject to any clawback or recoupment policy adopted by the Company from time to time, including policies required to comply with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and SEC Rule 10D-1.

Non-Transferability

Awards under the Plan generally are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and may be exercised during the participant’s lifetime only by the participant or his or her legal guardian.

Adjustment

In the event of a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or similar change in the Company’s capital structure, the plan administrator will make equitable adjustments to the number and type of shares reserved under the Plan, the individual award limits, the exercise prices of outstanding options and SARs, and the other terms of outstanding awards.

Amendment and Termination

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to applicable law and the rules of NYSE American. Stockholder approval is required for any amendment that would: (i) increase the number of shares reserved for issuance; (ii) change the class of persons eligible to receive ISOs; (iii) reduce the exercise price of outstanding options or SARs (other than in connection with a capital restructuring); (iv) extend the term of any outstanding option or SAR; or (v) otherwise require stockholder approval under applicable law or exchange rules. No award may be granted under the Plan after April 10, 2036.

Section 409A

The Plan and all awards thereunder are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A of the Code, and are to be interpreted and administered accordingly. The Plan does not constitute a guarantee of Section 409A compliance, and participants bear the risk of adverse tax consequences if their awards fail to comply with Section 409A.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following is a brief summary of certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the Plan. This summary is based on current law and does not discuss state, local or non-U.S. tax consequences. Tax laws change frequently, and the tax treatment of awards depends on individual circumstances. Participants should consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences applicable to them.

Incentive Stock Options (ISOs). An optionee generally recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of an ISO. Upon exercise, an optionee generally does not recognize regular income tax, but the spread (the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date) is an item of adjustment for alternative minimum tax purposes. If the shares acquired on exercise of an ISO are held for at least two years from the grant date and one year from the exercise date, any gain or loss on disposition is long-term capital gain or loss. If those holding periods are not satisfied (a “disqualifying disposition”), the optionee will recognize ordinary income equal to the lesser of (i) the gain on the disposition, or (ii) the spread at the time of exercise, and the Company generally is entitled to a corresponding deduction. The Company is not entitled to a deduction upon the exercise of an ISO.

Non-qualified Stock Options (NQSOs). An optionee generally recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of a NQSO. Upon exercise, the optionee recognizes ordinary income equal to the spread on the exercise date, and the Company is generally entitled to a corresponding deduction. The optionee’s tax basis in the acquired shares is equal to the exercise price plus the amount of ordinary income recognized. Any subsequent gain or loss is capital gain or loss, long-term or short-term depending on the holding period.

Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs). A participant generally recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of a SAR. Upon exercise, the participant recognizes ordinary income equal to the cash or the fair market value of the shares received, and the Company generally is entitled to a corresponding deduction.

Restricted Stock. A participant generally recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of restricted stock. Upon vesting, the participant recognizes ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of vesting, less any amount paid, and the Company generally is entitled to a corresponding deduction. Alternatively, within 30 days of receiving restricted stock, the participant may elect under Section 83(b) of the Code to recognize ordinary income at the time of grant based on the grant-date fair market value, in which case no additional ordinary income is recognized on vesting.

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). A participant generally recognizes no taxable income upon the grant of RSUs. Upon settlement (delivery of shares or cash), the participant recognizes ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares or the amount of cash received, and the Company generally is entitled to a corresponding deduction. RSUs do not qualify for a Section 83(b) election.

Section 162(m). Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company’s annual deduction for compensation paid to “covered employees” is generally limited to $1,000,000 per covered employee per taxable year.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2025 regarding shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Company’s equity compensation plans.

Plan Category	Number of Securities to be Issued Upon exercise of outstanding options, warrants and Rights (a)		Weighted- average exercise Price of outstanding options, warrants and Rights (b)		Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans (excluding securities reflected in column (a)) (c)
Equity compensation plans approved by security holders:
2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan		142,619	$	4.20		440,095
Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders: 2015 Employee Stock Option Plan (2)		7,768	$	3.18		—
Total		150,387	$	4.09		440,095

The table above is presented as of December 31, 2025, the end of our last completed fiscal year. On April 10, 2026, our stockholders approved the 2026 Plan, which replaced the 2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan for purposes of new awards. The table above does not reflect the 2026 Plan or the amendment to the 2026 Plan described in the Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed on June 8, 2026, and is not adjusted for the one-for-ten reverse stock split effected on September 9, 2026.

(1)

The share reserve of the 2019 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan increases automatically on January 1 of each year through January 1, 2029 by 4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the preceding December 31. On January 1, 2026, 63,748 shares were added, which are not reflected in the table. No further awards may be granted under the 2019 Plan.

(2)

The 2015 Employee Stock Option Plan was adopted by BiomX Ltd. before the 2019 business combination and was not approved by the Company’s stockholders. No shares remain available for future issuance under it; it continues to govern outstanding awards.

New Plan Benefits

Awards under the Plan are granted at the discretion of the plan administrator, and it is not possible to determine the benefits that will be received by any particular person if the Amendment is approved. No awards have been granted subject to or conditioned upon stockholder approval of the Amendment.

Registration of Shares

If the Amendment is approved, we intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 with the SEC to register the additional shares of Common Stock reserved under the Plan.

Vote Required and Board Recommendation

Approval of Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. Stockholder approval of the Amendment is also required under Section 711 of the NYSE American Company Guide. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of Proposal 1.

The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR Proposal 1.

Interests of Directors and Executive Officers. Our directors and executive officers are eligible to receive awards under the Plan and therefore have an interest in the approval of Proposal 1. No determination has been made as to the specific awards, if any, that would be granted to directors or executive officers from the additional shares.

PROPOSAL 2

ADJOURNMENT OF THE SPECIAL MEETING

If there are insufficient votes at the Special Meeting to approve Proposal 1, the Board may propose to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates to permit further solicitation of proxies. Proposal 2 asks stockholders to authorize the Board to adjourn the Special Meeting for this purpose.

If approved, the Special Meeting may be adjourned and any adjourned session of the Special Meeting may be held without notice other than an announcement at the Special Meeting at which the adjournment is voted upon. Any proxy properly submitted for the Special Meeting may be voted at any adjourned session in the manner directed by the stockholder, unless the stockholder revokes it before the adjourned session. Approval of Proposal 2 is not contingent on approval of Proposal 1.

Approval of Proposal 2 requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal. The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR Proposal 2.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of the Record Date (the “Measurement Date”), for: (i) each person known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock; (ii) each of our directors; (iii) each of our named executive officers; and (iv) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. All share numbers give effect to the one-for-ten reverse stock split effected on September 9, 2026.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. A person is deemed to beneficially own any shares of Common Stock over which the person has or shares voting or investment power, as well as any shares that the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of the Measurement Date pursuant to options, warrants or other rights. Shares subject to a beneficial ownership limitation are not included in the calculation. Percentage ownership is calculated based on ________ shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the Record Date.

Narrative Disclosure to the Summary Compensation Table

Option Awards. Option awards were granted to our named executive officers under the 2015 Plan. Option awards granted to our named executive officers after the closing of the Business Combination are granted pursuant to the 2019 Plan. In each case, one-fourth of the options vest and become exercisable on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remainder of the options vest and become exercisable in 12 equal quarterly installments, subject to the named executive officer’s continued employment; provided that the options will vest and become exercisable in the event the named executive officer is terminated within the twelve (12) month period following the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the applicable grant agreement) as a result of an involuntary termination without Cause (as defined in the applicable grant agreement) or a voluntary termination with Good Reason (as defined in the applicable grant agreement). Subject to the terms of any employment agreement, the unexercised portion of these awards is generally forfeited by a participant on the date his or her employment is terminated other than due to death or disability. In the event of death or disability, the options become fully exercisable and remain exercisable for a period specified in the applicable award agreement.

RSU Awards. In September 2024, pursuant to our 2019 Plan, we granted RSUs to four senior officers and one service provider. In April 2025, pursuant to our 2019 Plan, we granted RSUs to three senior officers. In each case, the RSUs were fully vested and issued on the grant date and are not subject to continued service to the Company.

Bonus Awards. We have an annual corporate and individual goal-setting and review process for our named executive officers that is the basis for the determination of potential annual bonuses. Each of our named executive officers is eligible for annual performance-based bonuses of up to a specific percentage of their salary, ranging from 40% to 50%, subject to approval by the Board or the Compensation Committee. The performance-based bonus is tied to a set of specified corporate and/or individual goals and objectives reviewed and approved by the Board, such as clinical and development milestones, meeting budget and strategic goals, and we conduct an annual performance review to determine the attainment of such goals and objectives. For fiscal year 2025, no performance-based bonuses were paid to the named executive officers.

Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards

We do not have any formal policy that requires the Company to grant, or avoid granting, equity-based compensation at certain times. We do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, and do not time the public release of such information based on award grant dates. The timing of any equity grants to executive officers or directors in connection with new hires, promotions, or other non-routine grants is tied to the event giving rise to the award (such as an executive officer’s commencement of employment or promotion effective date).

OTHER MATTERS

Solicitation of Proxies

The Company will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. Proxies may be solicited by mail, and our directors, officers, and employees may solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by electronic means, without additional compensation.

Householding

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, several brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be “householding” our proxy materials. A single set of the proxy materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate set of proxy materials, please notify your broker or the Company. Direct your written request to: Tessera Defense and Homeland Security Inc., 850 New Burton Road, Suite 201 Dover, Delaware 19904, Attention: Michael Oster.

Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.

Where You Can Find More Information

We file annual, quarterly, and current reports, proxy statements, and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These filings are available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. We incorporate by reference the documents listed under [Incorporation by Reference], including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as amended, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on June 12, 2026, which includes the audited and unaudited financial statements of Dr. Frucht Systems Ltd. and the related unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

Stockholders intending to present a proposal or propose a director nominee at our 2027 Annual Meeting must comply with the requirements set forth in the Company’s bylaws and comply with the requirement of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act. The bylaws require, among other things, that a stockholder must have given timely notice of any proposal in writing to the Secretary of the Company. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the 2026 annual meeting; provided, however, that if the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting is more than thirty (30) days prior to, or more than sixty (60) days after, the first anniversary of the date of the 2026 annual meeting, to be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be so received not earlier than the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting and (ii) the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public disclosure of the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting is first made by the Company.

Accordingly, for the 2027 Annual Meeting, given that the 2026 annual meeting is held on June 26, 2026, notice of a nomination or proposal must be delivered to the Secretary of the Company no earlier than February 26, 2027 and no later than March 28, 2027. SEC rules permit management to vote proxies in its discretion in certain cases if the stockholder does not comply with this deadline and, in certain other cases notwithstanding the stockholder’s compliance with this deadline. Proposals or nominations not submitted in accordance with such requirements will be deemed untimely or otherwise deficient; however, the Company will have discretionary authority to include such proposals or nominations in the proxy materials for the 2027 Annual Meeting.

In addition to satisfying the advance notice requirements under the Company’s bylaws as described above, to comply with the SEC’s universal proxy rules, a person who intends to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice to the Company that sets forth the information required by SEC Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act. Such notice must be received no later than 60 calendar days prior to the anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting. For any such director nominee to be included on our proxy card for the 2027 Annual Meeting, the Company’s Secretary must receive notice under SEC Rule 14a-19 no later than March 26, 2027.

We reserve the right to reject, rule out of order or take other appropriate action with respect to any proposal that does not comply with these or other applicable requirements.

Proposals should be addressed to Tessera Defense and Homeland Security Inc., Attn. Corporate Secretary, 850 New Burton Road, Suite 201 Dover, Delaware 19904.

Other Matters

The Board knows of no other matters to be presented at the Special Meeting. If any other matter properly comes before the meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote on it in their discretion.

A majority of the members of the Plan Administrator may determine its actions.

(d) Indemnification. No member of the Board or the Committee, and no officer or employee of the Company acting on behalf of the Plan Administrator, shall be personally liable for any action, determination, or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify and hold harmless each person made or threatened to be made a party to any civil or criminal action or proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or any person for whom such person is a legal representative, is or was a member of the Board, a member of the Committee, or an officer or employee of the Company acting on behalf of the Plan Administrator.

(e) Delegation. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan Administrator may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant Awards to Eligible Persons who are not subject to the reporting and other provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act; provided, that such delegation shall specify the maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards that such officer or officers may grant and shall be subject to such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may impose.

SECTION 4. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

(a) Authorized Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in Section 14 and the automatic increase set forth in Section 4(c) below, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock initially available for issuance under the Plan shall be One Million Three Hundred Ninety Thousand (1,390,000) shares (the “Initial Share Reserve”). Shares issued under the Plan shall be drawn from authorized and unissued shares or shares now held or subsequently acquired by the Company as treasury shares.

(b) Share Recycling.

(i) Shares of Common Stock covered by an Award shall not be counted as used unless and until they are actually issued and delivered to a Participant. If any Award lapses, expires, terminates, or is canceled prior to the issuance of shares thereunder, or if shares of Common Stock are issued under the Plan to a Participant and thereafter are forfeited to or otherwise reacquired by the Company, the shares subject to such Awards and the forfeited or reacquired shares shall again be available for issuance under the Plan.

B-6

(ii) Any shares of Common Stock (A) tendered by a Participant or retained by the Company as full or partial payment to the Company for the purchase price of an Award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with an Award, or (B) covered by an Award that is settled in cash or in a manner such that some or all of the shares of Common Stock covered by the Award are not issued, shall be available for Awards under the Plan.

(iii) The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall not be reduced to reflect any dividends or dividend equivalents that are reinvested into additional shares of Common Stock or credited as additional shares of Common Stock subject to or paid with respect to an Award.

(iv) Awards granted under the Plan upon the assumption of, or in substitution for, awards authorized or outstanding under a qualifying equity plan maintained by an entity with which the Company enters into a merger or similar corporate transaction (“Substitute Awards”) shall not reduce the shares available for grant under the Plan but shall count against the maximum number of shares that may be issued upon the exercise of Incentive Stock Options.

(c) Evergreen Provision; Automatic Annual Increase. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall automatically increase on January 1 of each year, for a period of ten (10) years, commencing on January 1, 2027 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2036 (each, an “Evergreen Date”), in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on December 31 of the preceding calendar year (each, an “Annual Increase” and collectively, the “Evergreen Mechanism”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may act prior to the Evergreen Date of a given year to provide that there shall be no Annual Increase for such year or that the Annual Increase for such year shall be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock than would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Section 4(c). For the avoidance of doubt, up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock added pursuant to this Section 4(c) may be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options.

(d) Substitute Awards. The Plan Administrator may also, without limitation, have the authority to grant Awards as an alternative to, or as the form of payment for, grants or rights earned or due under other compensation plans or arrangements of the Company.

(e) Minimum Vesting. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, Awards granted under the Plan (other than cash-based Awards) shall vest no earlier than the first anniversary of the date of grant; provided, however, that up to five percent (5%) of the shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan may be granted without regard to such minimum vesting requirement. Nothing in this Section 4(e) shall preclude the Plan Administrator from taking action, in its sole discretion, to accelerate the vesting of any Award in connection with a Participant’s death, Disability, retirement, or in connection with a Change in Control, or as otherwise provided herein.

SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY

(a) General. An Award may be granted to any Eligible Person whom the Plan Administrator from time to time selects. The Plan Administrator’s determination of which Eligible Persons shall receive Awards, and the type, amount, and terms thereof, need not be uniform and may be made selectively among Eligible Persons, whether or not such persons are similarly situated.

(b) Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company or a Subsidiary (within the meaning of Section 424(f) of the Code). Non-employee directors and consultants are not eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options.

(c) Non-U.S. Participants. The Plan Administrator may adopt sub-plans or establish special rules or procedures for the purpose of accommodating the laws and customs of, or achieving favorable tax treatment under the laws of, any jurisdiction other than the United States in which any Eligible Person may reside or provide services.

B-7

SECTION 6. STOCK OPTIONS

(a) Grant of Options. The Plan Administrator may grant Options to Eligible Persons and shall determine whether such Options shall be Incentive Stock Options or Nonqualified Stock Options. Each Option shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the exercise price, the term of the Option, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option, the vesting schedule, and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator shall determine, consistent with the Plan.

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Plan Administrator at the time the Option is granted; provided, however, that such exercise price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, the exercise price per share shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant.

(c) Term of Options. The term of each Option shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided, however, that no Option shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date of grant. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, the term shall not exceed five (5) years from the date of grant.

(d) Vesting and Exercisability. Options shall vest and become exercisable at such times and upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Plan Administrator may provide for the acceleration of vesting and exercisability in the event of the Participant’s death, Disability, retirement, a Change in Control, or upon such other events as the Plan Administrator may determine.

(e) Method of Exercise. An Option shall be exercised by delivering written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company (or its designated agent) in a form approved by the Plan Administrator, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased and accompanied by full payment of the exercise price. The exercise price may be paid in any manner approved by the Plan Administrator, which may include: (i) cash or check, (ii) delivery (including by attestation) of shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price, (iii) through a broker-assisted “cashless exercise” arrangement, (iv) by net exercise, (v) by any other method approved by the Plan Administrator, or (vi) by any combination of the foregoing.

(f) Termination of Service. The Award Agreement shall specify the effect of a Participant’s termination of service on the exercisability and term of the Option. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement:

(i) If a Participant’s service is terminated for Cause, all Options (whether or not then vested) shall terminate immediately.

(ii) If a Participant’s service is terminated by reason of death or Disability, all vested Options shall remain exercisable for a period of twelve (12) months following such termination (but not beyond the original term of the Option).

(iii) If a Participant’s service is terminated for any other reason, all vested Options shall remain exercisable for a period of ninety (90) days following such termination (but not beyond the original term of the Option).

(g) Incentive Stock Option Limitations. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the extent that such aggregate Fair Market Value exceeds $100,000, the Options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order in which they were granted) shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. No Incentive Stock Option may be granted more than ten (10) years after the earlier of (i) the date the Plan is adopted by the Board or (ii) the Effective Date.

(h) No Repricing. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, without the approval of the Company’s stockholders, the Plan Administrator shall not (i) reduce the exercise price of any outstanding Option, (ii) cancel any outstanding Option in exchange for a new Option with a lower exercise price, a new Award, cash, or other consideration when the exercise price of such Option exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying Common Stock, or (iii) take any other action that would be treated as a repricing under the applicable listing rules of the NYSE American (or such other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed).

B-8

SECTION 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

(a) Grant of SARs. The Plan Administrator may grant Stock Appreciation Rights to Eligible Persons, either alone (“freestanding SARs”) or in tandem with Options (“tandem SARs”). Each SAR shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement specifying the base price, the term, the number of shares of Common Stock to which the SAR relates, and such other terms as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

(b) Base Price. The base price per share of Common Stock subject to a SAR shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. In the case of a tandem SAR, the base price shall equal the exercise price of the related Option.

(c) Term. No SAR shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date of grant.

(d) Exercise and Settlement. Upon exercise of a SAR, the Participant shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date of exercise over the base price, multiplied by the number of shares subject to the SAR being exercised. Such amount may be paid in cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination thereof, as determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement.

(e) Tandem SARs. A tandem SAR may be exercised only when the related Option is exercisable and only with the surrender of the right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option. Upon exercise of a tandem SAR, the related Option shall be canceled to the extent of the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised, and vice versa.

(f) No Repricing. The restrictions on repricing set forth in Section 6(h) shall apply equally to Stock Appreciation Rights.

SECTION 8. RESTRICTED STOCK

(a) Grant of Restricted Stock. The Plan Administrator may grant shares of Restricted Stock to Eligible Persons. Each Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement specifying the number of shares, the period of restriction, the conditions of vesting, and such other terms as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

(b) Restrictions. During the period of restriction, shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, or otherwise encumbered, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or the Award Agreement. The Plan Administrator shall impose such restrictions as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions based upon continued employment or service, the achievement of Performance Goals, or any combination thereof.

(c) Stockholder Rights. Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement, a Participant holding shares of Restricted Stock shall have the rights of a stockholder of the Company, including the right to vote such shares and to receive dividends; provided, however, that any dividends paid with respect to unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be accumulated and paid to the Participant only upon, and to the extent that, the underlying shares of Restricted Stock vest. Any accumulated dividends relating to shares of Restricted Stock that are forfeited shall also be forfeited.

(d) Lapse of Restrictions. Upon the vesting of Restricted Stock, the restrictions imposed under the Award Agreement shall lapse, and the shares shall become freely transferable (subject to applicable securities laws and Company policies). The Plan Administrator may provide for the acceleration of vesting upon such events as it shall determine.

(e) Forfeiture. Except as otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s termination of service for any reason prior to the lapse of restrictions, all unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited and returned to the Company.

B-9

SECTION 9. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

(a) Grant of RSUs. The Plan Administrator may grant Restricted Stock Units to Eligible Persons. Each RSU Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement specifying the number of RSUs, the vesting schedule, the form and time of settlement, and such other terms as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

(b) Vesting. RSUs shall vest at such times and upon such conditions as may be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement, including, without limitation, conditions based on continued employment or service, the achievement of Performance Goals, or any combination thereof.

(c) Settlement. Upon vesting, each RSU shall entitle the Participant to receive one share of Common Stock or an amount of cash equal to the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock (or a combination thereof), as determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. Settlement shall occur on or as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting date, but in no event later than the date required to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A, unless the RSU is designed to provide for a permissible deferral of compensation in compliance with Section 409A.

(d) Dividend Equivalents. The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide that RSUs shall accrue dividend equivalents with respect to dividends paid on shares of Common Stock. Such dividend equivalents shall be accumulated and paid to the Participant only upon, and to the extent that, the underlying RSUs vest and are settled. Any accumulated dividend equivalents relating to RSUs that are forfeited shall also be forfeited.

(e) No Stockholder Rights. A Participant holding RSUs shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company (including no voting rights and no rights to receive dividends, other than dividend equivalents as provided in Section 9(d)) with respect to such RSUs until shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement thereof.

SECTION 10. PERFORMANCE AWARDS

(a) Grant of Performance Awards. The Plan Administrator may grant Performance Awards to Eligible Persons, payable in cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination thereof, upon the achievement of such Performance Goals during such Performance Periods as the Plan Administrator shall establish. Each Performance Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement specifying the Performance Goals, the Performance Period, the potential amount of the Award, and such other terms as the Plan Administrator shall determine.

(b) Performance Goals. Performance Goals may be based on one or more of the following criteria, applied to the Company as a whole or to any Subsidiary, division, business unit, or individual, and measured on an absolute basis, relative to a peer group, relative to an index, or on such other basis as the Plan Administrator shall determine: revenue; net revenue; earnings (including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization); net income; operating income; operating margin; earnings per share; cash flow; free cash flow; return on equity; return on assets; return on capital; return on investment; total stockholder return; stock price; market share; customer satisfaction metrics; clinical development milestones; regulatory milestones; product development milestones; strategic milestones; cost reduction or savings; working capital; debt reduction; or any other objective or subjective criteria determined by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator may provide for equitable adjustments to Performance Goals in recognition of unusual or non-recurring items, changes in applicable accounting rules, or other factors as the Plan Administrator may determine.

B-10

(c) Certification. Prior to the settlement or payment of any Performance Award, the Plan Administrator shall certify in writing (which may include approved minutes of a meeting) the extent to which the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved.

(d) Negative Discretion. Notwithstanding the achievement of any Performance Goal, the Plan Administrator shall retain the right to reduce (but not increase) the amount payable under a Performance Award.

SECTION 11. OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS

The Plan Administrator may grant other types of equity-based or equity-related Awards (including the grant or offer for sale of unrestricted shares of Common Stock, awards of phantom stock, and stock equivalent units) in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator shall determine. Such Awards may involve the transfer of actual shares of Common Stock to Participants or the payment of amounts in cash or otherwise based in whole or in part on the value of shares of Common Stock. Each Other Stock-Based Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement and shall be subject to such conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.

SECTION 12. CHANGE IN CONTROL

(a) Definition. For purposes of the Plan, a “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

(i) Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then-outstanding voting securities; provided, however, that any change in the percentage of voting power held by any one of the Company’s current directors or officers, or by the Company or a Company employee benefit plan, shall not constitute a Change in Control;

(ii) A change in the composition of the Board occurring within a twenty-four (24) month period such that a majority of the members of the Board are not Continuing Directors. “Continuing Directors” means members of the Board who either (A) have been Board members continuously for a period of at least twenty-four (24) months, or (B) have been Board members for less than twenty-four (24) months and were elected or nominated for election as Board members by at least a majority of the Continuing Directors at the time of such election or nomination (other than an election or nomination resulting from an actual or threatened election contest or proxy solicitation);

(iii) The consummation of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or similar transaction involving the Company and any other entity, other than a transaction that results in the Company’s voting securities outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or its parent) more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity (or its parent) outstanding immediately after such transaction; or

(iv) The consummation of a sale, lease, exclusive license, or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company.

B-11

(b) Treatment of Awards. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement or any other written agreement between a Participant and the Company:

(i) In the event of a Change in Control, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide for one or more of the following: (A) assumption, continuation, or substitution of outstanding Awards by the surviving entity (or its parent); (B) full or partial acceleration of vesting of outstanding Awards; (C) cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for a payment equal to the intrinsic value of such Awards (which may be zero if the exercise or base price exceeds the consideration payable in the Change in Control transaction); or (D) any combination of the foregoing.

(ii) Double-Trigger Acceleration. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, in the event that Awards are assumed, continued, or substituted in connection with a Change in Control, the vesting and exercisability of such Awards shall not be accelerated solely as a result of the Change in Control. If, however, within twenty-four (24) months following the consummation of a Change in Control, a Participant’s service is terminated by the Company (or its successor) without Cause, or by the Participant for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Participant’s Award Agreement, employment agreement, or other applicable agreement), then all outstanding Awards held by such Participant that were assumed, continued, or substituted in connection with the Change in Control shall become fully vested and exercisable.

SECTION 13. NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR AWARDS

Awards may be granted to non-employee directors of the Company at such times and in such amounts as the Plan Administrator shall determine, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may provide for automatic grants to non-employee directors upon initial election or appointment to the Board, upon re-election, or on an annual basis. Non-employee directors shall be eligible to receive Nonqualified Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock-Based Awards under the Plan, but shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options.

SECTION 14. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

(a) Adjustments. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, combination of shares, reclassification, recapitalization, or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, the Plan Administrator shall make appropriate and proportionate adjustments to: (i) the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan (including the Initial Share Reserve and any shares added pursuant to the Evergreen Mechanism); (ii) the number and kind of shares subject to each outstanding Award; (iii) the exercise price, base price, or purchase price applicable to each outstanding Award; and (iv) any other terms of an Award that are affected by such event. Such adjustments shall be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of Sections 409A and 424 of the Code, as applicable.

(b) Corporate Transactions. In the event of a merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization, or liquidation, the Plan Administrator shall make such adjustments, and take such other actions, as it deems appropriate with respect to outstanding Awards, including, without limitation: (i) the assumption, continuation, or substitution of Awards; (ii) the acceleration of vesting; (iii) the cancellation of Awards in exchange for cash, securities, or other property; or (iv) such other actions as the Plan Administrator deems appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.

(a) General. The Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any amounts payable to a Participant, or to require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy all applicable federal, state, local, and foreign tax withholding requirements (including the Participant’s FICA obligations) arising in connection with the grant, vesting, exercise, or settlement of an Award.

(b) Methods of Withholding. The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by one or more of the following methods: (i) payment in cash or check; (ii) withholding of shares of Common Stock from the Award having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the amount required to be withheld (up to the maximum statutory withholding rate); (iii) delivery of previously acquired shares of Common Stock; (iv) through a broker-assisted cashless exercise or sale arrangement; or (v) any other method approved by the Plan Administrator. The Plan Administrator shall determine the Fair Market Value of shares withheld for tax purposes as of the date that the taxes are required to be withheld.

SECTION 16. GENERAL PROVISIONS

(a) No Right to Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Participant the right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the right of the Company or a Subsidiary to terminate a Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason, with or without Cause.

(b) No Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or an Award Agreement, no Participant shall have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to shares of Common Stock subject to an Award until such shares are actually issued and delivered to the Participant.

(c) Non-Transferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement, no Award or interest therein may be sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any attempted sale, assignment, pledge, hypothecation, transfer, or disposition shall be void and of no effect. During the lifetime of a Participant, an Award shall be exercisable only by the Participant or, in the event of the Participant’s legal incapacity, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, permit the transfer of a Nonqualified Stock Option to a Participant’s family members, family trusts, or family partnerships or limited liability companies, subject to such conditions as the Plan Administrator may impose.

(d) Compliance with Laws. The Plan, Awards, and the issuance and delivery of shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state, local, and foreign laws, rules, and regulations (including, without limitation, applicable securities laws) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory, or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith.

(e) Securities Law Restrictions. The Company shall not be obligated to issue or deliver any shares of Common Stock under the Plan unless (i) such shares have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or an exemption from registration is available, and (ii) such issuance and delivery comply with all applicable requirements of the NYSE American (or such other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed).

(f) Legends. The Plan Administrator may require that certificates representing shares issued under the Plan bear such legends as the Plan Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to reflect any restrictions on transfer or other limitations imposed under the Plan, the Award Agreement, or applicable law.

(g) Unfunded Plan. The Plan shall be unfunded. Neither the Company nor the Board shall be required to establish any special or separate fund or to segregate any assets to assure the performance of its obligations under the Plan.

(h) No Guarantee of Tax Consequences. Neither the Company, the Board, the Committee, the Plan Administrator, nor any officer or employee of the Company guarantees to any Participant or any other person any particular tax consequences as a result of the grant, vesting, exercise, or settlement of any Award. Each Participant shall be solely responsible for all applicable taxes arising in connection with any Award.

B-13

(i) Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

(j) Conditions to Issuance. The Plan Administrator may require, as a condition to the exercise of any Award or the issuance of any shares of Common Stock under the Plan, that the Participant execute and deliver such documents and agreements and provide such representations and warranties as the Plan Administrator may determine to be necessary or advisable.

SECTION 17. CLAWBACK AND RECOUPMENT

(a) General Clawback. All Awards under the Plan shall be subject to any clawback or recoupment policy that the Company may adopt from time to time, including, without limitation, any policy adopted to comply with the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder (including Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act), and the applicable listing rules of the NYSE American (or such other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed). By accepting an Award under the Plan, each Participant agrees to be bound by any such clawback or recoupment policy, as it may be in effect from time to time.

(b) Forfeiture for Cause. If a Participant’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated for Cause, the Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, require the Participant to (i) forfeit any outstanding Awards (whether or not vested), and (ii) return to the Company any shares of Common Stock received pursuant to any Award, or repay to the Company any gains realized upon the exercise or settlement of any Award, in each case during the period commencing twelve (12) months prior to such termination.

SECTION 18. TERM AND AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

(a) Term. The Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Effective Date (i.e., April 10, 2036), unless sooner terminated by the Board. No Award shall be granted under the Plan after the termination of the Plan, but Awards previously granted shall remain outstanding in accordance with their terms.

(b) Amendment. The Board may, at any time, amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan; provided, however, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination shall be made without the approval of the Company’s stockholders if (i) such approval is required by applicable law, rule, or regulation (including the listing requirements of the NYSE American or such other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed), (ii) the amendment would increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan (other than pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 14), (iii) the amendment would expand the class of individuals eligible to participate in the Plan, or (iv) the amendment would permit repricing of Options or SARs in contravention of Section 6(h) or Section 7(f).

(c) No Impairment. No amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, or termination of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any outstanding Award without the consent of such Participant, except to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law, regulation, or listing requirement, or as otherwise permitted by the terms of the Award Agreement.

B-14

SECTION 19. SECTION 409A COMPLIANCE

(a) General. It is intended that the Plan and Awards granted hereunder shall comply with, or be exempt from, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Plan and Award Agreements shall be interpreted and administered consistent with such intent. To the extent that the Plan Administrator determines that any Award is or may become subject to Section 409A, the Plan Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or take such other actions as the Plan Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to (i) exempt the Award from Section 409A, or (ii) comply with the requirements of Section 409A.

(b) Separation from Service. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent that any Award constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A, and the settlement of such Award is triggered by a termination of employment or service, such settlement shall not occur until the Participant experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

(c) Specified Employees. If a Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code at the time of the Participant’s separation from service, and any payment or benefit to be provided under the Plan constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A that is payable on account of the Participant’s separation from service, then such payment or benefit shall not be made or provided until the date that is six (6) months and one (1) day following the Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death). Any payments delayed pursuant to this Section 19(c) shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the first business day following the end of the six-month delay period.

(d) No Acceleration. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A, no payment or benefit that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A shall be subject to acceleration.

SECTION 20. GOVERNING LAW

The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, except to the extent that the laws of any other jurisdiction are mandatorily applicable.

SECTION 21. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision, and the Plan and any such Award Agreement shall be reformed, construed, and enforced as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been included therein.

SECTION 22. CONSTRUCTION

(a) Headings. The headings and captions appearing in the Plan are inserted only as a matter of convenience. They do not define, limit, construe, or describe the scope or intent of the provisions of the Plan, and they shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of the Plan.

(b) Gender and Number. Whenever used in the Plan, nouns shall include each gender and the singular shall include the plural, and the plural shall include the singular, as the context may require.

(c) References. Any reference in the Plan to a Section of the Code or the Exchange Act shall be deemed to include any successor provision thereto, and any reference to any Treasury Regulation or other regulatory guidance shall include any successor regulation or guidance.

(d) Plan Not Exclusive. The adoption of the Plan shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Company to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of equity awards otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.
