| (b) | Future Grants. The exercise price of each Future Grant shall be equal to the trailing thirty (30) day volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Shares determined as of the respective Future Grant Date. |
| 5. | Vesting and Exercisability: |
| (a) | Initial Grant. The Initial Grant shall be subject to four-year monthly vesting following an initial 25% “cliff”; the date of the 25% “cliff” is November 6, 2018. Vesting of the remaining 75% will occur on the first day of each calendar month thereafter. “Cliff” means herein that no vesting will occur until the date when the first 25% vests and the remaining 75% begins to vest monthly. |
| (b) | Future Grants. Each Future Grant shall be subject to four-year monthly vesting following an initial one year 25% “cliff”; the date of the 25% one year “cliff” is the first anniversary date of the respective grant. Vesting of the remaining 75% will occur on the first day of each calendar month thereafter. “Cliff” means herein that no vesting will occur until the date when the first 25% vests and the remaining 75% begins to vest monthly. |
| (c) | Termination. If Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause (as defined in the Participant’s Offer Letter of even date herewith), all of the Participant’s options issued under the Initial Grant or any Future Grant, whether vested or unvested, then outstanding shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled without payment. |
| 6. | Change in Control: Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Participant’s Offer Letter of even date herewith), the options issued under the Initial Grant or any Future Grant that are then outstanding shall vest as provided in the Plan. |
| 7. | Clawback: The Initial Grant and each Future Grant is subject to any Company clawback policy as may be adopted or amended from time to time. |

With respect to the Initial Grant and any Future Grant, the Exercise Price shall be payable, at the Participant’s election (A) in cash; (B) if there is a public market for the Common Shares at the time of exercise, by means of a broker-assisted “cashless exercise” pursuant to which the Company is delivered a copy of irrevocable instructions to a stockbroker to sell the Common Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the Exercise Price or (C) by a “net exercise” method whereby the Company withholds from the delivery of the Common Shares for which such option was exercised that number of Common Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Exercise Price for the Common Shares for which such option was exercised. Any fractional Common Shares shall be settled in cash.
| 9. | Expiration/Termination of Option: Each option shall have a term of five years. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent not expired, terminated or cancelled earlier in accordance with the terms of Plan, the Initial Grant shall expire on October 1, 2023.

The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan as presently in effect. The text and all of the terms and provisions of the Plan are incorporated herein by reference, and this option is subject to these terms and provisions in all respects. At any time when the Participant wishes to exercise this option, in whole or in part, the Participant shall submit to the Company a written notice of exercise, specifying the exercise date and the number of Common Shares to be exercised. Upon exercise, the Participant shall remit to the Company the exercise price in cash or in such other form as permitted under the Plan, plus an amount sufficient to satisfy the required withholding tax obligation of the Company, if any, that arises in connection with such exercise.
