During the Term, the Company shall pay to the Executive in installments an annual base salary, not less often than monthly, at an annual rate of not less than $250,000 (“Annual Base Salary”).

The Company shall not reduce the Annual Base Salary during the Term of this Agreement without the advance written approval of the Executive. In addition, within five business days following the Effective Date, the Company shall pay to the Executive an amount in cash equal to $250,000.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Executive may instead elect to be reimbursed by the Company for the total premiums paid to a third party for health insurance provided by a third party for the Executive and his family, so long as the amount of such premiums to be reimbursed is generally consistent with the amount of premiums in effect for the third-party insurance provided to the Executive and his family as of the date hereof, which amount has been disclosed to the Company; provided that any increase in the amount of

premiums to be reimbursed that is consistent with healthcare cost inflation shall be deemed to satisfy the requirement set forth in this sentence.

Following the Effective Date, the Executive shall be reimbursed for reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with this Agreement and the compensation hereunder and related matters, in an amount to be reasonably agreed between the Company and the Executive.

9.    Withholding.

If circumstances arise in which such withholding or contributions are required on account of any compensation or benefits (including, without limitation, upon the payment or provision of any compensation or benefits pursuant to Sections 6 or 7), at a time when there are not cash payments being made to the Executive from which such withholding obligations can be satisfied, the Executive will deliver to the Company amounts sufficient to fund such withholding or contribution obligations.

10.    Executive’s Covenants.

(a)    Confidentiality.

(i)    The Executive shall not, at any time, use, divulge, or otherwise disclose, directly or indirectly, any confidential and proprietary information (including, without limitation, any customer or prospect list, supplier list, acquisition or merger target, business plan or strategy, data, records, financial information, or other trade secrets) concerning the business, policies, or operations of the Company or its affiliates (or any predecessors thereof) that the Executive may have learned or become aware of at any time on or prior to the date hereof or during the Term of the Executive’s employment by the Company. The confidential and proprietary information shall not include any information that: (A) was independently developed by the Executive before the commencement of his employment with the Company; (B) is or has been publicly disclosed by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company; and (C) is or becomes publicly available, other than as a result of a disclosure in contravention of this confidentiality restriction by the Executive or any person to whom the Executive disclosed the information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive is permitted to disclose confidential and proprietary information of the Company and/or its affiliates

(1) to third parties and other officers, directors, and employees of the Company or its affiliates in the performance of his duties on behalf of the Company, (2) to legal counsel for the Executive, the Company, or an affiliate of the Company to the extent necessary to obtain legal advice, so long as the Executive advises such legal counsel of the confidential and/or proprietary nature of such information, (3) to the extent required by law or a request by a court or governmental authority (pursuant to a subpoena, settlement discussions, or otherwise) or as required to respond to a lawsuit against the Executive, and (4) to immediate family members so long as the Executive advises such family members of the confidential and/or proprietary nature of such information.

(ii)    The Executive further acknowledges and agrees that all Company Materials (as defined below) are the exclusive property of the Company and that, at the request of the Company upon the termination of his employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement (or, in the event that he continues as a director of the Company, upon his ceasing to be a director of the Company), he shall return to the Company all Company Materials (including all copies thereof) that are in printed form and then in his control or possession and permanently delete from all accessible files, folders, and document libraries all Company Materials in digital form that are then stored on computers or other electronic devices in his control or possession. For purposes of this Agreement, “Company Materials” means all models, samples, products, prototypes, computers, computer software, computer disks, tapes, printouts, source, HTML and other code, flowcharts, schematics, designs, graphics, drawings, photographs, charts, graphs, notebooks, customer lists, sound recordings, other tangible or intangible manifestation of content, and all other documents concerning the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or any predecessor of the Company or any affiliate of the Company, whether printed, typewritten, handwritten, electronic, or stored on computer disks, tapes, hard drives, or any other tangible medium.

(iii)    The Executive acknowledges that Company Materials may contain information that is confidential and subject to the attorney-client privilege of the Company or its affiliates or otherwise protected by attorney work product immunity. Except as required by law, the Executive agrees not to disclose to any person (other than in-house or outside counsel for the Company and its affiliates) the content or substance of (A) any such Company Materials that the Executive knows or has notice is protected by an attorney-client privilege or attorney work product immunity of the Company or any affiliate of the Company or (B) any communication that the Executive may have or may have had at any time with in-house or outside counsel for the Company and its affiliates, whether during his employment hereunder or otherwise, regarding such Company Materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive is permitted to waive any attorney-client privilege or attorney work product privilege of the Company or any affiliate of the Company with respect to any particular information or communication, whether affirmatively or through the disclosure of information or communication to a person that results in waiver of the privilege, if the waiver or disclosure is (1) necessary to establish a legal defense for the Executive, (2) made in reliance on, and consistent with, the advice of legal counsel, (3) directed or authorized by the Board or legal counsel

for the Company in connection with a governmental investigation or otherwise, or (4) required by law or to comply in good faith with an order of a court or governmental authority, after providing the Company or its subsidiary a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order to prevent or protect the disclosure of the applicable information or communication.

(b)    Noncompetition and Nonsolicitation.

(i)    During the Restricted Period (as defined below), the Executive agrees that he shall not, without the prior authorization by resolution of the Board, directly or indirectly, either as principal, agent, manager, employee, partner, shareholder, director, officer, consultant, or otherwise (A) become engaged in, involved with, or employed in any business (other than as a less-than 1% equity owner of any corporation traded on any national, international, or regional stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market) that competes with the Company or any of its affiliates; or (B) induce or attempt to induce any customer, client, supplier, employee, agent, or independent contractor of the Company or any of its affiliates to reduce, terminate, restrict, or otherwise alter its business relationship with the Company or its affiliates; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the Executive, individually or in association with others, from (1) engaging in public advertisement and other forms of broad solicitation not intended to target Company employees to fulfill hiring needs, (2) hiring any individual who is a former employee of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company who has been separated from employment with the Company or the subsidiary of the Company for more than six months, or (3) soliciting or hiring his personal assistant(s). The provisions of this Section 10(b)(i) shall be effective only within any state within the United States or any country outside the United States where the Company or any of its subsidiaries conducted its business during any part of the Executive’s employment with the Company. The parties intend the above geographical areas to be completely severable and independent, and any invalidity or unenforceability of this Agreement with respect to any one area shall not render this Agreement unenforceable as applied to any one or more of the other areas.

(ii)    For purposes of this Agreement, “Restricted Period” shall mean the period of the Executive’s employment by the Company during the Term and the 12-month period following the Date of Termination.

(c)    Nondisparagement. The Executive shall not disparage the Company or any of its affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees as a group, agents, stockholders, successors, and assigns (both individually and in their official capacities with the Company) (the “Company Parties”) or any of the Company Parties’ goods, services, employees as a group, customers, business relationships, reputation, or financial condition. The Board shall not make any official statements that, and the Company shall instruct its directors not to, disparage the Executive or any of his affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees as a group, agents, stockholders, successors, and assigns (both individually and in their official

capacities with the Company) (the “Executive Parties”) or any of the Executive Parties’ performance, reputation, or financial condition.

(d)    Cooperation. During the Term and thereafter, the Executive shall cooperate with the Company and its affiliates as reasonably requested by the Company, without additional consideration, in any internal investigation or administrative, regulatory, or judicial proceeding involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries that pertains to any matter that occurred, or with which the Executive was involved or had knowledge, while he was employed by the Company, including, without limitation, the Executive’s being available to the Company or its affiliates upon reasonable notice for interviews and factual investigations, appearing at the Company’s request to give testimony without requiring service of a subpoena or other legal process, volunteering to the Company all pertinent information, and turning over to the Company all relevant documents that are or may come into the Executive’s possession, all at times and on schedules that are reasonably consistent with the Executive’s other permitted activities and commitments if the Executive is then employed by the Company and otherwise taking into account the Executive’s business and personal obligations; provided that, in the event that the Executive is no longer employed by or otherwise providing services to the Company, the Executive shall not be obligated to provide services under this Section 10(d) in excess of five hours per week or ten hours per month. The Company promptly shall reimburse the Executive for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses that he incurs in providing any assistance requested by the Company under this Section 10(d), including the reasonable fees and expenses of an attorney selected by the Executive and reasonably acceptable to the Company to represent the Executive’s interests in connection with any investigation or judicial, regulatory, arbitration, or administrative proceeding for which he is requested to provide any assistance or required to testify in a deposition or otherwise.

(e)    Scope of Restrictions. The Executive acknowledges that the restrictions set forth in this Section 10 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s business and goodwill, and that the obligations under this Section 10 shall survive any termination of his employment for the periods indicated. The Executive acknowledges that if any of these restrictions or obligations is found by a court having jurisdiction to be unreasonable or overly broad or otherwise unenforceable, he and the Company agree that the restrictions or obligations shall be modified by the court so as to be reasonable and enforceable and, if so modified, shall be fully enforced. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the covenants set forth in this Section 10 are not intended to, and shall be interpreted in a manner that does not, limit or restrict the Executive from exercising any legally protected whistleblower rights (including pursuant to Rule 21F under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

(f)    Consideration; Survival. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the compensation and benefits provided in this Agreement constitute adequate and sufficient consideration for the covenants made by the Executive in this Section 10. As further consideration for the covenants made by the Executive in this Section 10, the Company has provided and will provide the Executive certain proprietary and other confidential information about the Company, including, but not limited to, business plans and strategies, budgets and

budgetary projections, income and earnings projections and statements, cost analyses and assessments, and/or business assessments of legal and regulatory issues.

11.    Termination of Employment.

(a)    In General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the end of the Term by the Executive or by the Company, and shall automatically terminate upon the death of the Executive. Upon any such termination, the Company shall pay to the Executive (or the Executive’s legal guardian or his estate, as applicable) (i) any accrued base salary, and (ii) any rights or payments that are vested benefits or that the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive at or subsequent to the Date of Termination under any Employee Benefit Plan or any other contract or agreement with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which shall be payable in accordance with the terms of such Employee Benefit Plan or contract or agreement, except as explicitly modified by this Agreement, including, without limitation, any accrued vacation or any of the Executive’s business expenses that are reimbursable, but have not been reimbursed as of the Date of Termination. In addition, in the event of a termination by the Company without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason (in each case, as defined on Exhibit A), subject to the Executive’s continued compliance with the covenants set forth herein and his execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B hereto (the “Release”) within the time period set forth therein, the Executive shall be entitled to continuation of his Annual Base Salary for 18 months following the Date of Termination (the “Severance Payment”); provided, however, that the first such installment shall be paid on the 60th day following the Date of Termination and the first payment shall include any portion of the Severance Payment that would have otherwise been payable during the period between the Date of Termination and such payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Date of Termination occurs within two years following a Change in Control (as defined in the Alico, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan of 2015 (the “Plan”)) that also constitutes a “change in control event” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Severance Payment shall be paid in a lump sum within 30 days following the Date of Termination, subject to the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of the Release within the time period set forth therein and the six-month delay provisions of Section 20.

(b)    Effect of Termination on Other Positions. If, on the Date of Termination, the Executive is a member of the Board or the board of directors of any of the Company’s affiliates, or holds any other position with the Company or its affiliates, the Executive shall not be deemed to have resigned from any such positions as of the Date of Termination by virtue of his termination of employment.

(c)    No Mitigation Duty. The amounts payable to the Executive pursuant to this Section 11 will not be reduced by the amount of any income that the Executive earns or could earn from alternative employment following the Date of Termination. The Company waives any duty that the Executive might have under law to mitigate his damages by seeking

alternative employment and the Company shall have no right to offset any amounts owed to the Company with amounts payable under this Section 11.

12.    Notice. Any notice to be given hereunder by either party to the other must be in writing and be effectuated either by personal delivery in writing or by mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid, with return receipt requested. Mailed notices shall be addressed to the parties at the following addresses:

If to the Company:

Chairman, Compensation Committee
c/o Alico, Inc.
10070 Daniels Interstate Court
Suite 100
Fort Myers, Florida 33913

If to the Executive:

At the most recent contact information on file in the payroll records of the Company.

A validly given notice will be effective on the earlier of its receipt, if it is personally delivered in writing, or on the fifth day after it is postmarked by the United States Postal Service, if it is delivered by certified or registered, postage-prepaid, United States mail.

13.    Waiver of Breach. The waiver by any party to a breach of any provision in this Agreement cannot operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by a party.

14.    Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision in this Agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, and this Agreement shall be construed in all respects as if the invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

15.    Amendment. No modifications or amendments of the terms and conditions herein shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the parties or their respective duly authorized agents.

16.    Authorization. The execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by the Company have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action of the Company. This Agreement has been properly executed on behalf of the Company by a duly authorized representative.

17.    Counterparts. The parties may execute this Agreement in counterparts and by manual or facsimile signature. Each executed counterpart of this Agreement will constitute an original document, and all executed counterparts, together, will constitute the same agreement. This Agreement will become effective as of the Effective Date when it has been signed by both the Company and the Executive and will survive the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

18.    Governing Law and Forum Selection. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and governed according to the laws of the State of Florida, without reference to conflicts of law principles thereof. The parties agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy based on common law, equity, or any federal, state, or local statute, ordinance, or regulation (other than workers’ compensation claims) arising out of or relating in any way to the Executive’s employment, the terms, benefits, and conditions of employment, or concerning this Agreement or its termination and any resulting termination of employment, including whether such a dispute is arbitrable, shall be settled by arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party to this Agreement may commence a proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction to enter a judgment of any award rendered in the arbitration or to enforce any arbitration award or a settlement resulting from mediation or negotiation of the parties. This agreement to arbitrate includes, but is not limited to, all claims for any form of illegal discrimination, improper or unfair treatment or dismissal, and all tort claims. The Executive shall still have a right to file a discrimination charge with a federal or state agency, but the final resolution of any discrimination claim will be submitted to arbitration instead of a court or jury. The arbitration proceeding shall be conducted under the employment dispute resolution arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect at the time that a demand for arbitration under the rules is made, and such proceeding shall be conducted in the English language by a sole arbitrator in Polk County, Florida, and governed by the Florida Arbitration Act and the substantive laws of the State of Florida, without regard to any applicable state’s choice of law provisions. The decision of the arbitrator(s), including determination of the amount of any damages suffered, shall be exclusive, final, and binding on all parties, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns, and shall not be subject to appeal, review, or re-examination by a court or the arbitrator, except for fraud, perjury, manifest clerical error, or evident partiality or misconduct by the arbitrator that (in each case) prejudices the rights of a party to the arbitration. Each party shall bear its own expenses in the arbitration for arbitrators’ fees and attorneys’ fees, for its witnesses, and for other expenses of presenting its case. Other arbitration costs, including administrative fees and fees for records or transcripts, shall be borne equally by the parties.

19.    Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their permitted successors, assigns, legal representatives, and heirs, but neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder shall be assignable by the Executive. This Agreement is not assignable by the Company without the advance written consent of the Executive, which he may withhold in his sole discretion, except that the Company may assign this Agreement without the consent of the Executive to any direct or indirect successor in interest to all or substantially all its assets or business (whether pursuant to a sale, merger, exchange, consolidation, or reorganization transaction) that, at the closing of the transaction, expressly assumes in writing this Agreement and agrees to perform all of the obligations of the Company under it. The Company will require any successor in interest to all or substantially all of its assets or business to assume expressly and agree in writing to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no succession had taken place.

20.    Code Section 409A. It is the intention of the Company and the Executive that this Agreement will not result in unfavorable tax consequences to the Executive under Section 409A

of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be administered and interpreted in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause this Agreement to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code will have no force and effect until amended to comply therewith (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code). The Company and the Executive agree to work together in good faith in an effort to comply with Section 409A of the Code, including, if necessary, amending this Agreement based on further guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service from time to time; provided that the Company shall not be required to assume any increased economic burden. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, the Executive shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of this Agreement and no payments shall be due to him under this Agreement that are payable upon his termination of employment until he would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. To the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement during the six-month period immediately following the Executive’s termination of employment shall instead be paid in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following his termination of employment (or upon his death, if earlier). In addition, for purposes of this Agreement, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. With respect to expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided under the terms of this Agreement, (a) the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in another taxable year, (b) any reimbursements of such expenses and the provision of any in-kind benefits shall be made no later than the end of the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the related expenses were incurred, except, in each case, to the extent that the right to reimbursement does not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code; provided that, with respect to any reimbursements for any taxes to which the Executive becomes entitled under the terms of this Agreement, the payment of such reimbursements shall be made by the Company no later than the end of the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the Executive remits the related taxes, and (c) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefit shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

21.    Limitations on Payments under Certain Circumstances.

(a)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, if any payment or benefit received or to be received by the Executive (including any payment or benefit received in connection with a change in control or the termination of the Executive’s employment, whether pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other plan, arrangement, or agreement) (all such payments and benefits being hereinafter referred to as the “Total Payments”) would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code that would be subject (in whole or part), to any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code

(the “Excise Tax”), then, after taking into account any reduction in the Total Payments provided by reason of Section 280G of the Code in such other plan, arrangement, or agreement, the Total Payments shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that no portion of the Total Payments is subject to the Excise Tax but only if (i) the net amount of such Total Payments, as so reduced (and after subtracting the net amount of federal, state, and local income taxes on such reduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phaseout of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such reduced Total Payments) is greater than or equal to (ii) the net amount of such Total Payments without such reduction (but after subtracting the net amount of federal, state, and local income taxes on such Total Payments and the amount of Excise Tax to which the Executive would be subject in respect of such unreduced Total Payments and after taking into account the phaseout of itemized deductions and personal exemptions attributable to such unreduced Total Payments). If a reduction is necessary pursuant to this Section 21(a), then the reduction shall occur by reducing the Severance Payment, then the accelerated vesting of performance-based equity awards (based on the reverse order of the date of grant), and then by reducing the accelerated vesting of other equity awards (based on the reverse order of the date of grant).

(b)    For purposes of determining whether and the extent to which the Total Payments shall be subject to the Excise Tax, (i) no portion of the Total Payments the receipt or enjoyment of which the Executive shall have waived at such time and in such manner as not to constitute a “payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b) of the Code shall be taken into account, (ii) no portion of the Total Payments shall be taken into account that, based on the determination of a nationally recognized certified public accounting firm that is selected by the Company before a Change in Control, and reasonably acceptable to the Executive, for purposes of making the applicable determinations under this Section 21 (the “Accounting Firm”), does not constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code (including by reason of Section 280G(b)(4)(A) of the Code) and, in calculating the Excise Tax, no portion of such Total Payments shall be taken into account that, based on the determination of the Accounting Firm, constitutes reasonable compensation for services actually rendered, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(4)(B) of the Code, in excess of the “base amount” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code allocable to such reasonable compensation, and (iii) the value of any non-cash benefit or any deferred payment or benefit included in the Total Payments shall be determined by the Accounting Firm in accordance with the principles of Sections 280G(d)(3) and (4) of the Code. In connection with making determinations under this Section 21, the Accounting Firm shall take into account the value of any reasonable compensation for services to be rendered by the Executive before or after the Change in Control, including any noncompetition provisions that may apply to the Executive.

(c)    At the time that payments are made under this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Executive with a written statement setting forth the manner in which such payments were calculated and the basis for such calculations including, without limitation, any opinions or other advice the Company has received from the Accounting Firm or other advisors or consultants (and any such opinions or advice that are in writing shall be attached to the statement).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

Company identifying each act or omission that the Board views to constitute Cause and any identified act or omission recurs or, if curable, the identified act or omission is not reasonably cured within 30 days after the date that the Participant received the written notice from the Company. For purposes of this provision, any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or upon the advice of counsel for the Company shall be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

(a)    the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date; and

(b)    the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, in the case of a Termination of Employment by the Company with Cause.

5.Tax Withholding. The Company’s obligation to deliver the Shares upon exercise of any Options or any certificates evidencing such Shares (or to make a book-entry or other electronic notation indicating ownership of such Shares) is subject to the condition precedent that the Participant either pay or provide for the amount of any withholding obligations with respect to the exercise of the Option in such manner as may be authorized by the Committee or as may otherwise be permitted under Section 14(d) of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Participant shall have the right to satisfy any tax withholding obligations (a) by paying cash equal to the amount of such tax withholding or (b) if approved in advance by the Committee, by settling such obligations with Common Stock, including Common Stock that is part of the Option that gives rise to the withholding requirement, having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater amount) required to be withheld for tax purposes.

The Option and any Shares received upon exercise thereof shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement.

8.Adjustment. In the event of an event described in Section 3(d) of the Plan occurring after the Grant Date, the adjustment provisions of Section 3(d) of the Plan shall apply

to the Option, including to authorize appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price Hurdles set forth in Section 3(a) and the Share disposal restrictions set forth in Section 9. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a Share Change that is an extraordinary cash dividend, the Committee or Board shall, in its sole discretion, adjust the Options either (a) by applying the adjustment mechanism set forth in Treas. Regs. § 1.424-1(a) or (b) by equitably reducing the Option Price to the extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent such reduction does not result in adverse tax consequences to the Participant, and, in either case, by reducing each applicable Stock Price Hurdle by the amount of such extraordinary cash dividend.

Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold, or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant (or any Affiliate or other permitted transferee pursuant to Section 7) prior to the date that is six months following the vesting of the tranche of the Option pursuant to which such Shares were acquired. Additionally, the Participant shall not (and shall cause the Participant’s Affiliates, or other permitted transferees pursuant to Section 7, not to) sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of more than 10,000 Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option during any 30-day period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to Shares withheld to pay the Option Price, to Shares used to satisfy required tax withholding obligations, or to Shares transferred pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution, and shall cease to apply as of the Participant’s death or Disability or upon a Change in Control.

10.Change in Control.

(a)    Inapplicability of the Plan Provisions. The provisions of Sections 10(a)–10(d) of the Plan shall not apply to the Options.

(b)    Vesting. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, (i) any unvested Options for which the applicable Stock Price Hurdle is less than or equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of immediately prior to such Change in Control shall become fully vested and exercisable (“Accelerated Options”) and (ii) any unvested Options for which the applicable Stock Price Hurdle is greater than the Fair Market Value of a Share as of immediately prior to such Change in Control (“Unvested Options”) shall be treated as set forth in Section 10(c)(ii).

(c)    Settlement; Assumption. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, (i) any Vested Options (including any Accelerated Options) shall be assumed or settled as provided under Section 3(d) of the Plan, as determined by the Board or the Committee, and (ii) Unvested Options shall be treated as follows: (A) if Shares are converted to or otherwise purchased for cash in connection with such Change in Control, then any Unvested Options shall be forfeited without consideration as of the occurrence of such Change in Control; (B) if Shares are converted to securities of the surviving entity (or parent thereof) in connection with such Change in Control, then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Unvested Options to be substituted for or assumed or continued by the surviving entity (or parent thereof) in the Change in Control and the Stock Price Hurdles with respect to the Options to be adjusted, in each case, in accordance with Section 3(d) of the Plan; and (C) if Shares are converted to a mix of cash and securities of the surviving entity (or parent thereof) in connection with such Change in Control, then (1) that percentage of any Unvested Options that is equal to

the percentage of consideration received in respect of each Share in cash in such Change in Control shall be forfeited and (2) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any remaining Unvested Options to be substituted for or assumed or continued by the surviving entity (or parent thereof) in the Change in Control and the Stock Price Hurdles with respect to such Options to be adjusted, in each case, in accordance with Section 3(d) of the Plan.

11.Clawback. The Options and any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options shall be subject to the terms of any Company recoupment, clawback, or similar policy as it may be in effect from time to time, as well as any similar provisions of applicable law, any of which could in certain circumstances require repayment or forfeiture of the Options or any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options or other cash or property received with respect to the Options (including any gain realized from a disposition of the Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options). In addition, if the Participant incurs a Termination of Employment by the Company with Cause, the Committee may in its sole discretion require the Participant to forfeit any Shares previously acquired by the Participant upon exercise of the Options, repay any gain previously realized upon the disposition of any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Options, or both.

12.Miscellaneous.

(a)    Waiver and Amendment. No waiver of any right hereunder by any party shall operate as a waiver of any other right, or as a waiver of the same right with respect to any subsequent occasion for its exercise, or as a waiver of any right to damages. No waiver by any party of any breach of this Agreement shall be held to constitute a waiver of any other breach or a waiver of the continuation of the same breach.
