Amendment and Restatement of the Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan, effective as of February 23, 2022

This Plan is intended to foster and promote the long-term financial success of Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. and its Affiliates (the “Company Group”); to reward performance and to increase shareholder value by providing Participants appropriate incentives and rewards; to enable the Company Group to attract and retain the services of outstanding individuals upon whose judgment, interest and dedication the successful conduct of the Company Group’s businesses are largely dependent; to encourage Participants’ ownership interest in Adams Resources & Energy, Inc.; and to align the interests of management and directors with that of the Company’s shareholders.

In the absence of such then-effective written agreement and definition, “Cause” means, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Award Agreement, with respect to a Participant:

(ii)the consummation of a merger, consolidation, or other reorganization of the Company, unless:

1.under the terms of the agreement providing for such merger, consolidation, or reorganization, the shareholders of the Company immediately before such merger, consolidation, or reorganization, will own, directly or indirectly immediately following such merger, consolidation, or reorganization, at least 51% of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company resulting from such merger, consolidation, or reorganization (the Surviving Company) in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of the voting securities immediately before such merger, consolidation, or reorganization;

(iii)during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constituted the Board cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board unless the election, or the nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, of each new director was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning of the period.

Notwithstanding Clause (i), a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if a Person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of the Company’s securities representing 51% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities solely as a result of an acquisition by the Company of its voting securities which, by reducing the number of shares outstanding, increases the proportionate number of shares beneficially owned by such Person to 51% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; provided, however, that if a Person (other than KSA) becomes a beneficial owner of 51% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities by reason of share purchases by the Company and shall, after such share purchases by the Company, become the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of any additional voting securities of the Company (other than as a result of a stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction), then a Change in Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to such Person (other than KSA) under Clause (i).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in any circumstance or transaction in which compensation resulting from or in respect of an Award would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Code Section 409A if the foregoing definition of “Change in Control” were to apply, but would not result in the imposition of any additional tax if the term “Change in Control” were defined herein to mean a “change in control event” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5), then “Change in Control” shall mean a “change in control event” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5), but only to the extent necessary to prevent such compensation from becoming subject to an additional tax under Code Section 409A.

(ii)if the Common Stock is regularly quoted on an automated quotation system (including any market operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc.) or by a recognized securities dealer, its Fair Market Value shall be the closing sales price for such stock as quoted on such system or by such securities dealer on the date of determination, but if selling prices are not reported, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for the Common Stock on the date of determination (or, if no such prices were reported on that date, on the last date such prices were reported), as reported in The Wall Street Journal or such other source as the Committee deems reliable; or

Depending on the Performance Criteria used to establish such Performance Goals, the Performance Goals may be: (i) expressed on a corporate-wide basis; with respect to one or more business units, divisions, subsidiaries or business segments, or any combination thereof; (ii) in either absolute terms or relative to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies; (iii) absolute or based on change in the Performance Criteria over a specified period of time and such change may be measured based on an arithmetic

A Participant’s service shall not be deemed to have terminated because of a change in the entity for which the Participant renders such service, provided that there is no interruption or termination of the Participant’s service. Furthermore, a Participant’s service with the Company Group shall not be deemed to have terminated if the Participant takes any military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence approved by the Company or an Affiliate; provided, however, that unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if any such leave exceeds 90 days, on the 91st day of such leave the Participant’s service shall be deemed to have terminated unless the Participant’s right to return to service with the Company Group is guaranteed by statute or contract. Unless the Participant’s leave of absence is approved by the Committee, a Participant’s service shall be deemed to have terminated upon the entity for which the Participant performs service ceasing to be an Affiliate (or any successor).

A member of the Board of Directors shall be deemed to be “disinterested” only if he satisfies (i) such requirements as the Securities and Exchange Commission may establish for non-employee directors administering plans intended to qualify for exemption under Rule 16b-3 (or its successor) under the Exchange Act and (ii) such rules for an “independent director” as the principal U.S. national securities exchange on which Shares are traded may require. The Board of Directors may also appoint one or more separate committees of the Board of Directors, each composed of one or more directors of the Company or an Affiliate who need not be disinterested, that may grant Awards and administer the Plan with respect to Employees, Outside Directors, and other individuals who are not considered officers or directors of the Company under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

(x)employ agents, attorneys, accountants or other persons for such purposes as the Committee considers necessary or desirable; and

(xi)do and perform all acts which it may deem necessary or appropriate for the administration of the Plan and to carry out the objectives of the Plan.

The Committee’s determinations under the Plan shall be final and binding on all persons.

(b)Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement containing such provisions as may be approved by the Committee. Each Award Agreement shall constitute a binding contract between the Company and the Participant, and every Participant, upon acceptance of the Award Agreement, shall be bound by the terms and restrictions of the Plan and the Award Agreement. The terms of each Award Agreement shall be in accordance with the Plan, but each Award Agreement may include such additional provisions and restrictions determined by the Committee, in its discretion, provided that such additional provisions and restrictions are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. In particular, and at a minimum, the Committee shall set forth in each Award Agreement (i) the type of Award granted, (ii) the Exercise Price of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right, (iii) the number of Shares

subject to the Award; (iv) the expiration date of the Award, and (v) the restrictions, if any, placed upon such Award, or upon Shares which may be issued upon exercise of such Award.

(c)The Chairman of the Committee and such other directors and officers as shall be designated by the Committee is hereby authorized to execute Award Agreements on behalf of the Company and to cause them to be delivered to the recipients of Awards.

(d)The Committee in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it may provide may delegate all or any part of its authority and powers under the Plan to one or more members of the Board of Directors and/or officers of the Company.

(e)The Committee in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it may provide may delegate all authority for: (i) the determination of forms of payment to be made by or received by the Plan and (ii) the execution of any Award Agreement. The Committee may rely on the descriptions, representations, reports and estimates provided to it by the management of the Company or an Affiliate for determinations to be made pursuant to the Plan.

The following types of Awards may be granted under the Plan:

(a)Dedicated Shares. Except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 17 below, the total number of shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan shall be 300,000 shares. The shares of Stock may be treasury shares or authorized but unissued shares. The numbers of shares of Stock stated in this Section 5(a) shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of Section 17 below.

(i)In connection with the granting of an Award, the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall be reduced by the number of shares of Stock in respect of which the Award is granted or denominated. For example, upon the grant of stock-settled SARs, the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall be reduced by the full number of SARs granted, and the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall not thereafter be increased upon the exercise of the SARs and settlement in shares of Stock, even if the actual number of shares of Stock delivered in settlement of the SARs is less than the full number of SARs exercised.

(ii)Any shares of Stock that are tendered by a Participant or withheld as full or partial payment of withholding or other taxes or as payment for the exercise or conversion price of an Award under this Plan shall not be added back to the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under this Plan.

(iii)Whenever any outstanding Option or other Award (or portion thereof) expires, is cancelled or forfeited or is otherwise terminated for any reason without having been exercised or payment having been made in the form of shares of Stock, then (A) the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall be increased by the number of shares of Stock allocable to the expired, forfeited, cancelled or otherwise

terminated Option or other Award (or portion thereof); and (B) the shares of Stock subject to such Awards will not be counted as shares delivered under this Plan.

(iv)Awards valued by reference to Stock that may be settled in equivalent cash value will count as shares of Stock delivered to the same extent as if the Award were settled in shares of Stock.

(i)The maximum number of shares of Stock that may be subject to Awards granted to any one Employee during any calendar year may not exceed 20,000 shares of Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17 below); and

(ii)The maximum dollar value of shares of Stock that may be subject to Awards granted to any individual Outside Director during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17 below), as determined on the date of grant for such Awards.

(c)Substitute Awards. The Committee may grant Awards under the Plan in substitution for stock and stock based awards held by service providers of another corporation in connection with a merger or consolidation of the service recipient corporation with the Company or an Affiliate or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliate of property or stock of the service recipient corporation. The Committee may direct that the substitute awards be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee considers appropriate in the circumstances. Such substitution of any outstanding Stock Option must satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulation § 1.424-1 and Code Section 409A. Any substitute Awards granted under the Plan shall not count against the share limitations set forth in Sections 5(a) or 5(b), nor shall such Shares subject to substitute awards again be available for grant under the Plan to the extent of any forfeiture, expiration, or cash settlement.

(d)Source of Shares. Shares issued under the Plan may be either authorized but unissued Shares, authorized Shares previously issued held by the Company in its treasury which have been reacquired by the Company, or Shares purchased by the Company in the open market.

Subject to the terms of the Plan, all Employees and Outside Directors shall be eligible to receive Awards under the Plan.

The Committee may, subject to the limitations of this Plan and the availability of Shares reserved but not previously awarded under the Plan, grant Non-Statutory Stock Options to eligible individuals upon such terms and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions:

(a)Exercise Price. The Committee shall determine the Exercise Price of each Non‑Statutory Stock Option. However, the Exercise Price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant.

(b)Terms of Non-Statutory Stock Options. The Committee shall determine the term during which a Participant may exercise a Non‑Statutory Stock Option, but in no event may a Participant exercise a Non‑Statutory Stock Option, in whole or in part, more than 10 years from the Date of Grant. The Committee shall also determine the date on which each Non‑Statutory Stock Option, or any part thereof, first becomes exercisable and any terms or conditions a Participant must satisfy in order to exercise each Non-Statutory Stock Option. Shares underlying each Non-Statutory Stock Option may be purchased, in whole or in part, by the Participant at any time during the term of such Non‑Statutory Stock Option, after such Option becomes exercisable. A Non‑Statutory Stock Option may not be exercised for fractional shares. If, on the date when a Non‑Statutory Stock Option would otherwise terminate or expire the Exercise Price of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option is less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject

to the Non‑Statutory Stock Option on such date but any portion of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option has not been exercised, then the Non‑Statutory Stock Option shall automatically be deemed to be exercised as of such date with respect to such portion by means of a “net exercise” as described in Section 7(g). An Award Agreement with respect to a Non‑Statutory Stock Option may also provide for an automatic exercise of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option on an earlier date.

(c)Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than Termination for Cause, the Participant may exercise only those Non‑Statutory Stock Options that were vested and immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of such termination and only for thirty (30) days following the date of such termination, or, if sooner, the expiration of the term of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option.

(d)Extension of Term of Option. The period during which a Non‑Statutory Stock Option is to remain exercisable following a Participant’s Termination of Service shall be extended if the exercise of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option would violate an applicable Federal, state, local, or foreign law until thirty (30) days after the exercise of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option would no longer violate applicable Federal, state, local, and foreign laws, but not beyond the original term of the Non‑Statutory Stock Option pursuant to Section 7(b).

(e)Settlement. Upon exercise, a Non‑Statutory Stock Option shall be settled in Shares.

(f)Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing an Award, a Non‑Statutory Stock Option shall vest in accordance with Sections 12(a) and 12(b), unless faster vesting is required by the forgoing provisions of this Section 7.

(g)Method of Exercise of Options. Subject to any applicable Award Agreement, any Option may be exercised by the Participant in whole or in part at such time or times, and the Participant may make payment of the Exercise Price in such form or forms, including, without limitation, payment by delivery of cash or Common Stock owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the total Exercise Price, or by any combination of cash and Shares, including exercise by means of a cashless exercise arrangement with a qualifying broker-dealer or a “net exercise.” The Participant may deliver shares of Common Stock either by attestation or by the delivery of a certificate or certificates for shares duly endorsed for transfer to the Company. A “net exercise” means the delivery of a properly executed notice followed by a procedure pursuant to which (i) the Company will reduce the number of Shares otherwise issuable to a Participant upon the exercise of an Option by the largest whole number of Shares having a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate Exercise Price for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised, and (ii) the Participant shall pay to the Company in cash the remaining balance of such aggregate Exercise Price not satisfied by such reduction in the number of whole Shares to be issued. Shares will no longer be outstanding under an Option and will not be exercisable thereafter to the extent that (A) Shares are used to pay the Exercise Price pursuant to a “net exercise,” (B) Shares are delivered to the Participant as a result of such exercise, and (C) Shares are withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.

The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan and the availability of Shares reserved but not previously awarded under this Plan, grant Incentive Stock Options to Employees upon such terms and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions:

(a)Exercise Price. The Committee shall determine the Exercise Price of each Incentive Stock Option. However, the Exercise Price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant; provided, however, that if at the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted, the Employee owns or is treated as owning, for purposes of Code Section 422, Common Stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting securities of the Company (“10% Owner”), the Exercise Price shall not be less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant.

(b)Amounts of Incentive Stock Options. To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options that are exercisable for the first time by an Employee during any calendar year under the Plan and any other stock option plan of the Company or an Affiliate exceeds $100,000, or such higher value as may be permitted under Code Section 422, such Options in excess of such limit shall be treated as Non‑Statutory Stock Options. Fair Market Value shall be determined as of the Date of Grant with respect to each such Incentive Stock Option.

(c)Terms of Incentive Stock Options. The Committee shall determine the term during which a Participant may exercise an Incentive Stock Option, but in no event may a Participant exercise an Incentive Stock Option, in whole or in part, more than 10 years from the Date of Grant; provided, however, that if at the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted to an Employee who is a 10% Owner, the Incentive Stock Option granted to such Employee shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five years from the Date of Grant. The Committee shall also determine the date on which each Incentive Stock Option, or any part thereof, first becomes exercisable and any terms or conditions a Participant must satisfy in order to exercise each Incentive Stock Option. Shares underlying each Incentive Stock Option may be purchased, in whole or in part, at any time during the term of such Incentive Stock Option, after such Option becomes exercisable. An Incentive Stock Option may not be exercised for fractional shares. If, on the date when an Incentive Stock Option would otherwise terminate or expire the Exercise Price of the Incentive Stock Option is less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Incentive Stock Option on such date but any portion of the Incentive Stock Option has not been exercised, then the Incentive Stock Option shall automatically be deemed to be exercised as of such date with respect to such portion by means of a “net exercise” as described in Section 7(g). An Award Agreement with respect to an Incentive Stock Option may also provide for an automatic exercise of the Incentive Stock Option on an earlier date.

(d)Termination of Employment. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than Termination for Cause, the Participant may exercise only those Incentive Stock Options that were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of such termination and only for thirty (30) days following the date of such termination, or, if sooner, the expiration of the term of the Incentive Stock Option.

(e)Extension of Term of Option. The period during which an Incentive Stock Option is to remain exercisable following a Participant’s Termination of Service shall be extended if the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option would violate an applicable Federal, state, local, or foreign law until thirty (30) days after the exercise of the Incentive Stock Option would no longer violate applicable Federal, state, local, and foreign laws, but not beyond the original term of the Incentive Stock Option pursuant to Section 8(c). Any extension of the term of an Incentive Stock Option pursuant to this Section 8(e) may cause the Option to be treated as a Non-Statutory Stock Option.

(f)Settlement. Upon exercise, an Incentive Stock Option shall be settled in Shares.

(g)Disqualifying Dispositions. Each Award Agreement with respect to an Incentive Stock Option shall require the Participant to notify the Committee of any disposition of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of such Option under the circumstances described in Code Section 421(b) (relating to certain disqualifying dispositions), within 10 days of such disposition.

(h)Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing an Award, a Non‑Statutory Stock Option shall vest in accordance with Sections 12(a) and 12(b), unless faster vesting is required by the forgoing provisions of this Section 8.

9.    RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan and the availability of Shares reserved but not previously awarded under this Plan, grant Restricted Stock to eligible individuals upon such terms and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions:

(a)Payment of the Restricted Stock. Awards of Restricted Stock may only be made in whole Shares.

(b)Terms of the Restricted Stock. The Committee shall determine the dates on which Restricted Stock granted to a Participant shall vest and any specific conditions or performance goals which must be satisfied prior to the vesting of any installment or portion of the Restricted Stock. The Committee may issue Restricted Stock that is immediately vested and not subject to any specific conditions or performance goals. Notwithstanding other paragraphs in this Section 9, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any Restricted Stock. The acceleration of any Restricted Stock shall create no right, expectation or reliance on the part of any other Participant or that certain Participant regarding any other Restricted Stock.

(c)Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason, the Participant’s unvested Restricted Stock as of the date of termination shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Restricted Stock shall become null and void.

(d)Voting of Restricted Stock. After a Restricted Stock Award has been granted, but for which Shares covered by such Restricted Stock have not yet vested, the Participant shall be entitled to vote such Shares subject to the rules and procedures adopted by the Committee for this purpose.

(e)Restrictive Legend. Each certificate issued in respect of a Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Participant and, at the discretion of the Board, each such certificate may be deposited in a bank designated by the Board. Each such certificate shall bear the following (or a similar) legend:

“The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the terms and conditions (including forfeiture) contained in the Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. Amended and Restated 2018 Long-Term Incentive Plan and an agreement entered into between the registered owner and Adams Resources & Energy, Inc. A copy of such plan and agreement is on file at the principal office of Adams Resources & Energy, Inc.”

(f)Transfers of Unrestricted Shares. Upon the vesting date for a Restricted Stock, such Restricted Stock will be transferred free of all restrictions to a Participant (or his or her legal representative, beneficiary or heir).

(g)Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing an Award, Restricted Stock shall vest in accordance with Sections 12(a) and 12(b), unless faster vesting is required by the forgoing provisions of this Section 9.

The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan and the availability of Shares reserved but not previously awarded under this Plan, grant Restricted Stock Unit Awards to eligible individuals upon such terms and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions. A “Restricted Stock Unit” Award is the grant of a right to receive Shares in the future.

(a)Settlement of Restricted Stock Unit Award. A Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be settled either by the delivery of whole Shares or by the payment of cash based upon the Fair Market Value of a specified number of Shares, in the discretion of the Committee, subject to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, any stock certificate evidencing the Shares payable under a Restricted Stock Unit Award will be issued (or cash paid) within an administratively reasonable period after the date on which the Restricted Stock Unit vests so that the payment of Shares qualifies for the short‑term deferral exception under Code Section 409A.

(b)Terms of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Committee shall determine the dates on which Restricted Stock Units granted to a Participant shall vest and any specific conditions or performance goals which must be satisfied prior to the vesting of any Award. Notwithstanding other paragraphs in this Section 10, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any Restricted Stock Units. The acceleration of any

Restricted Stock Unit Award shall create no right, expectation or reliance on the part of any other Participant or that Participant regarding any other Restricted Stock Unit Award.

(c)Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason, the Participant’s unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the date of termination shall be forfeited and any rights the Participant had to such unvested Awards shall become null and void.

(d)Deferral. Unless expressly permitted by the Committee in the Award Agreement, a Participant does not have any right to make any election regarding the time or form of any payment pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit Award. To the extent permissible under applicable law, the Committee may permit a Participant to defer payment under a Restricted Stock Unit to a date or dates after the Restricted Stock Unit vests, provided that the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit and any deferral satisfy the requirements to avoid imposition of the “additional tax” under Code Section 409A(a)(1)(B).

(e)Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing an Award, a Restricted Stock Unit shall vest in accordance with Sections 12(a) and 12(b), unless faster vesting is required by the forgoing provisions of this Section 10.

The Committee may, subject to the limitations of the Plan and the availability of Shares reserved but not previously awarded under this Plan, grant Stock Appreciation Rights to eligible individuals upon such terms and conditions as it may determine to the extent such terms and conditions are consistent with the following provisions. A Stock Appreciation Right is an award that entitles the holder to receive an amount equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right and the Exercise Price on the Date of Grant, subject to the provisions of this Section 11.

(a)Exercise Price. The Committee shall determine the Exercise Price of each Stock Appreciation Right. However, the Exercise Price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant.

(b)Terms of Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee shall determine the term during which a Participant may exercise a Stock Appreciation Right, but in no event may a Participant exercise a Stock Appreciation Right, in whole or in part, more than ten (10) years from the Date of Grant. The Committee shall also determine the date on which each Stock Appreciation Right, or any part thereof, first becomes exercisable and any terms or conditions a Participant must satisfy in order to exercise each Stock Appreciation Right. A Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised for fractional shares. If, on the date when a Stock Appreciation Right would otherwise terminate or expire the Exercise Price of the Stock Appreciation Right is less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Stock Appreciation Right on such date but any portion of the Stock Appreciation Right has not been exercised, then the Stock Appreciation Right shall automatically be deemed to be exercised as of such date with respect to such portion. An Award Agreement with respect to a Stock Appreciation Right may also provide for an automatic exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right on an earlier date.

(c)Termination of Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement, upon a Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason other than Termination for Cause, the Participant may exercise only those Stock Appreciation Rights that were immediately exercisable by the Participant at the date of such termination and only for thirty (30) days following the date of such termination, or, if sooner, the expiration of the term of the Stock Appreciation Right.

(d)Extension of Term of Stock Appreciation Right. The period during which a Stock Appreciation Right is to remain exercisable following a Participant’s Termination of Service shall be extended if the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right would violate an applicable Federal, state, local, or foreign law until thirty (30) days

after the exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right would no longer violate applicable Federal, state, local, and foreign laws, but not beyond the original term of the Stock Appreciation Right pursuant to Section 11(b).

(e)Settlement. Upon exercise, a Stock Appreciation Right shall be settled in cash or Shares, or both, in the discretion of the Committee, subject to the terms of the applicable Award Agreement.

(f)Vesting. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and evidenced in an applicable Award Agreement evidencing an Award, a Stock Appreciation Right shall vest in accordance with Sections 12(a) and 12(b), unless faster vesting is required by the forgoing provisions of this Section 11.

(a)General. The Committee shall establish the vesting schedule to apply to any Award of Options, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Stock Appreciation Rights. Each such Award issued under this Plan’s terms shall have a vesting period of not less than 1 year; provided, however, that, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, up to five percent (5%) of the Shares authorized for issuance under Section 5(a) are not required to have such minimum vesting period.

(b)Performance Vesting. The Committee may designate that an Award will become vested based on attainment of designated Performance Goals over a designated Performance Period (a “Performance Award”).

(i)Procedures with Respect to Grants. The Committee shall, in writing, (i) designate one or more Participants to receive Performance Awards, (ii) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (iii) establish the Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period, and (iv) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts to be earned by each Participant for such Performance Period. The Performance Goals and Performance Period for a Performance Award generally shall be selected by the Committee in its sole discretion and shall be designated within the first ninety (90) days of the Performance Period.

(ii)Committee Certification. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall determine whether the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance Period. No Performance Award or portion thereof that is subject to the satisfaction of any condition shall be considered to be earned or vested until the Committee certifies in writing that the conditions to which the distribution, earning or vesting of such Award is subject have been achieved.

(iii)Payment and Limitations. Performance Awards shall be paid on or before the 90th day following both (i) the end of the Performance Period, and (ii) certification by the Committee that the Performance Goals and any other material terms of the Award and the Plan have been satisfied, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable. A Performance Award may be paid in Stock, cash, or a combination of Stock and cash, in the sole discretion of the Committee, which shall be determined in the applicable Award Agreement. If paid in whole or in part in Stock, the Stock shall be valued at Fair Market Value as of the date the Committee directs payments to be made in whole or in part in Stock. However, no fractional shares of Stock shall be issued, and the balance due, if any, shall be paid in cash. The maximum amount which may be paid to any Participant pursuant to one or more Awards under this Section 12 for any single Performance Period shall not exceed the limitations provided in Section 5(b) above.

(iv)Effect on Other Plans and Arrangements. Nothing contained in the Plan will be deemed in any way to limit or restrict the Committee from making any award or payment to any person under any other plan, arrangement or understanding, whether now existing or hereafter in effect.

(i)Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company in which the successor company assumes or substitutes for an Option, Stock

Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Unit Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and continues the Award), if a Participant’s employment with such successor company (or the Company) or a subsidiary thereof is terminated without Cause within twelve (12) months after such Change in Control (or such other period set forth in the Award Agreement):

1.Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date of such Change in Control (or Termination of Service, if later) will immediately vest upon the Change in Control (or Termination of Service, if later), become fully exercisable, and may thereafter be exercised for two years (or the period of time set forth in the Award Agreement), or, if sooner, the expiration of the term of the Award; and

2.The restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units outstanding as of the Change in Control (or Termination of Service, if later) shall lapse and the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested.

For the purposes of this Section 12(c), an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be considered assumed or substituted for if following the Change in Control the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Unit immediately prior to the Change in Control, the consideration (whether stock, cash or other securities or property) received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of such transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the transaction constituting a Change in Control is not solely common stock of the successor company, the Committee may, with the consent of the successor company, provide that the consideration to be received upon the exercise or vesting of an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Unit Award, for each Share subject thereto, will be solely common stock of the successor company substantially equal in fair market value to the per Share consideration received by holders of Shares in the transaction constituting a Change in Control. The determination of such substantial equality of value of consideration shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion and its determination shall be conclusive and binding.

(ii)Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control, to the extent the successor company does not assume or substitute for an Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, or Restricted Stock Unit Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and does not continue the Award), then as of the Change in Control:

1.Those Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control that are not assumed or substituted for (or continued) shall immediately vest and become fully exercisable;

2.Restrictions, limitations and other conditions applicable to Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units that are not assumed or substituted for (or continued) shall lapse and the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall become free of all restrictions, limitations and conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant; and

3.Any Award subject to performance criteria shall be prorated based on the performance from the Award Date to the date of the Change in Control. The proration shall be based upon the method set forth in the Award Agreements evidencing the applicable Awards, or if no method is specified, based upon the total number of days during the performance period prior to the Change in Control in relation to the total number of days during the performance period.

(d)Cause Termination. Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, all of a Participant’s unvested and/or unsettled Awards shall be forfeited on the date the Participant’s employment or service is terminated for Cause.

No Participant shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares covered by an Award until the date of issuance of a stock certificate for such Common Stock. Nothing contained in this Plan or in any Award Agreement confers on any person any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or an Affiliate or interferes in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate a Participant’s services.

The Committee may provide that Awards under this Plan shall earn dividends or dividend equivalents; provided, however, that no portion of such dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid prior to vesting or during the forfeiture restriction period. Prior to payment, such dividends or dividend equivalents shall be credited to an account maintained on the books of the Company. Any crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents will be subject to such terms, conditions, limitations and restrictions as the Committee may establish, from time to time, including, without limitation, reinvestment in additional shares of Common Stock or common share equivalents. Dividend or dividend equivalent rights shall be as specified in the Award Agreement, or pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Committee with respect to outstanding Awards. No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid on Options or Stock Appreciation Rights.

A Participant may, with the consent of the Committee, designate a person or persons to receive, in the event of death, any Award to which the Participant would then be entitled. Such designation will be made upon forms supplied by and delivered to the Company and may be revoked in writing. If a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary, then the Participant’s estate will be deemed to be the beneficiary.

(a)General Rule. Except as provided in Section 16(b) below, no Award and no right under any such Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported prohibited assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company Group.

(b)Non-Statutory Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. With the approval of the Committee, a Participant may transfer a Non‑Statutory Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right for no consideration to or for the benefit of one or more Permitted Transferees subject to such limits as the Committee may establish, and the Permitted Transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to the Award prior to such transfer. The transfer of an Award pursuant to this Section shall include a transfer of the rights of a Participant under this Plan to consent to certain amendments to the Plan or an Award Agreement and, in the discretion of the Committee, shall also include transfer of ancillary rights associated with the Award.

(a)Adjustment Clause. In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company by reason of any stock dividend, split, spinoff, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, combination, extraordinary dividend, exchange of shares or other change affecting the outstanding shares of Common Stock as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration, or other equity restructuring within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718, Stock Compensation, appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the terms and the number of Shares and/or the Exercise Price per Share of any outstanding Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units, and (ii) the share limitations set forth in Section 5 hereof. The Committee shall also make appropriate adjustments described in (i)-(ii) of the previous sentence in the event of any distribution of assets to shareholders other than a normal cash dividend. Adjustments, if any, and any determination or interpretations, made by the Committee shall be final,

binding and conclusive. Conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall be deemed to have been effected for adequate consideration. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of any class or securities convertible into shares of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award.

(b)Change in Control. If a Change in Control occurs, the Committee may, in its discretion and without limitation:

(i)cancel outstanding Awards in exchange for payments of cash, property or a combination thereof having an aggregate value equal to the value of such Awards, as determined by the Committee or the Board in its sole discretion (it being understood that if shareholders receive consideration other than publicly traded equity securities of the surviving entity, any determination by the Committee that the value of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall equal the excess, if any, of the value of the consideration being paid for each Share in such transaction over the Exercise Price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall conclusively be deemed valid. Accordingly, if the Exercise Price of the Shares subject to a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right exceeds the Fair Market Value of such Shares, then such Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be cancelled without making a payment to the holder of the Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right);

(ii)substitute other property (including, without limitation, cash or other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company) for Shares subject to outstanding Awards;

(iii)arrange for the assumption of Awards, or replacement of Awards with new awards based on other property or other securities (including, without limitation, other securities of the Company and securities of entities other than the Company); and

(iv)after giving Participants an opportunity to exercise their outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, terminate any or all unexercised Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. Such termination shall take place as of the date of the Change in Control or such other date as the Committee may specify.

(c)Section 409A Provisions with Respect to Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) any adjustments made pursuant to this Section to Awards that are considered “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Code Section 409A unless the Participant consents otherwise; (ii) any adjustments made to Awards that are not considered “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A shall be made in such a manner as to ensure that after such adjustment, the Awards either continue not to be subject to Code Section 409A or comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A unless the Participant consents otherwise; and (iii) the Committee shall not have the authority to make any adjustments under this Section to the extent that the existence of such authority would cause an Award that is not intended to be subject to Code Section 409A to be subject thereto.

The Company or any of its Affiliates is authorized to withhold from any Award, from any payment due or transfer made under any Award or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, or other property) of any applicable taxes required to be withheld by the Company or such Affiliate in respect of the Award, its exercise, the lapse of restrictions thereon, or any payment or transfer under the Award and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all of its obligations for the payment of such taxes. In addition, the Committee may provide, in an Award Agreement, that the Participant may make direct payment of any applicable taxes directly to the Company or may direct the Company to satisfy such Participant’s tax withholding obligations through the withholding of Shares otherwise to be acquired upon the exercise or payment of such Award, but only to the extent such withholding does not cause a charge to the Company’s financial earnings.

All Awards granted under the Plan will be subject to recoupment in accordance with any clawback policy that the Company is required to adopt pursuant to the listing standards of any national securities exchange or association on which the Company’s securities are listed or as is otherwise required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or other applicable law. In addition, the Committee may impose such other clawback, recovery or recoupment provisions in an Award Agreement as the Committee determines necessary or appropriate, including, but not limited to, a recovery right in respect of previously acquired shares of Stock and/or a repayment right with respect to previously acquired cash or property, including the proceeds of any shares of Stock received under this Plan’s terms.

(a)The Board of Directors may at any time, and from time to time, modify or amend the Plan in any respect, prospectively or retroactively; provided; however, (i) provisions governing grants of Incentive Stock Options shall be submitted for shareholder approval to the extent required by applicable law or regulation; (ii) except as permitted by Section 17, no amendment may increase the share limitations set forth in Section 5 or decrease the minimum Exercise Price for Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights set forth in Sections 7(a), 8(a) and 11(a), unless any such amendment is approved by the Company’s shareholders within 12 months before or after such amendment; and (iii) the provisions of Section 20(b) (relating to Option repricing) may not be amended, unless any such amendment is approved by the Company’s shareholders. Failure to ratify or approve amendments or modifications by shareholders shall be effective only as to the specific amendment or modification requiring such approval or ratification. Other provisions of this Plan will remain in full force and effect. No such termination, modification or amendment may adversely affect the rights of a Participant under an outstanding Award without the written permission of such Participant.

(b)The Committee may amend any Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect the rights of any Participant under an outstanding Award without the written consent of such Participant; provided, however, that repricing of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be permitted. For this purpose, a repricing means any of the following (or any other action that has the same effect as any of the following): (i) changing the terms of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right to lower its Exercise Price; (ii) any other action that is treated as a repricing under generally accepted accounting principles; and (iii) canceling an Option or Stock Appreciation Right at a time when its exercise price is equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying stock in exchange for cash or for another Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other Award, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with an event set forth in Section 17. Such cancellation and exchange would be considered a repricing regardless of whether it is treated as a repricing under generally accepted accounting principles and regardless of whether it is voluntary on the part of the Participant.

The Company will have the right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock (or other property) under the Plan or any Award Agreement any outstanding amounts (including, without limitation, travel and entertainment or advance account balances, loans, repayment obligations under any Awards, or amounts repayable to the Company pursuant to tax equalization, housing, automobile or other employee programs) that the Participant then owes to the Company and any amounts the Committee otherwise deems appropriate pursuant to any tax equalization policy or agreement; provided, however, that no such offset shall be permitted if it would constitute an “acceleration” of a payment hereunder within the meaning of Code Section 409A. This right of offset shall not be an exclusive remedy and the Company’s election not to exercise the right of offset with respect to any amount payable to a Participant shall not constitute a waiver of this right of offset with respect to any other amount payable to the Participant or any other remedy.

(a)Any reference in an Award Agreement or the Plan to a written document includes without limitation any document delivered electronically or posted on the Company’s or an Affiliate’s intranet or other shared electronic medium controlled by the Company or an Affiliate.

(b)The Committee and any Participant may use facsimile and PDF signatures in signing any Award or Award Agreement, in exercising any Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or in any other written document in the Plan’s administration. The Committee and each Participant are bound by facsimile and PDF signatures, and acknowledge that the other party relies on facsimile and PDF signatures.

The Plan was originally effective May 8, 2018. The Plan shall be amended and restated as of the Effective Date, provided such amendment and restatement is approved by at least a majority vote of shareholders voting in person or by proxy with respect to the Plan at a duly held shareholders’ meeting.

The right to grant Awards under the Plan will terminate ten (10) years after the earlier of (i) the date the Plan is adopted by the Board of Directors or (ii) the Effective Date. The Board of Directors has the right to suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided that no such action will, without the consent of a Participant, adversely affect a Participant’s rights under an outstanding Award.

The Plan will be administered in accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware and applicable federal law. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no liability to issue any Shares under the Plan unless such issuance would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity. Prior to the issuance of any Shares under the Plan, the Company may require a written statement that the recipient is acquiring the shares for investment and not for the purpose or with the intention of distributing the shares.

It is the intention of the Company that no Award shall be “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A unless and to the extent that the Committee specifically determines otherwise, and the Plan and the terms and conditions of all Awards shall be interpreted accordingly. The terms and conditions governing any Awards that the Committee determines will be subject to Code Section 409A, including any rules for elective or mandatory deferral of the delivery of cash or Shares pursuant thereto, shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall comply in all respects with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Award issued under the Plan that constitutes a deferral of compensation under a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” as defined under Code Section 409A(d)(1) and is not specifically designated as such by the Committee shall be modified or cancelled to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A, including any rules for elective or mandatory deferral of the delivery of cash or Shares pursuant thereto.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Participant shall be solely responsible for the taxes relating to the grant or vesting of, or payment pursuant to, any Award, and none of the Company, the Board of Directors or the Committee (or any of their respective members, officers or employees) guarantees any particular tax treatment with respect to any Award.
