8

Without regard to whether any Participant’s Purchase Right may be considered adversely affected, the Company may, from time to time, consistent with the Plan and the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, establish, change or terminate such rules, guidelines, policies, procedures, limitations, or adjustments as deemed advisable by the Company, in its discretion, for the proper administration of the Plan, including, without limitation, (a) a minimum payroll deduction amount required for participation in an Offering, (b) a limitation on the frequency or number of changes permitted in the rate of payroll deduction during an Offering, (c) an exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld or paid in a currency other than United States dollars, (d) a payroll deduction greater than or less than the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for the Company’s delay or mistake in processing a Subscription Agreement or in otherwise effecting a Participant’s election under the Plan or as advisable to comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, and (e) determination of the date and manner by which the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock is determined for purposes of administration of the Plan.

3.6    Indemnification. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as members of the Board or the Committee or as officers or employees of the Participating Company Group, to the extent permitted by applicable law, members of the Board or the Committee and any officers or employees of the Participating Company Group to whom authority to act for the Board, the Committee or the Company is delegated shall be indemnified by the Company against all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and necessarily incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or in connection with the Plan, or any right granted hereunder, and against all amounts paid by them in settlement thereof (provided such settlement is approved by independent legal counsel selected by the Company) or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such person is liable for gross negligence, bad faith or intentional misconduct in duties; provided, however, that within sixty (60) days after the institution of such action, suit or proceeding, such person shall offer to the Company, in writing, the opportunity at its own expense to handle and defend the same.
4.    Shares Subject to Plan.
4.1    Maximum Number of Shares Issuable. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section  4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan shall be two million seven hundred thousand (2,700,000). Shares issued under the Plan shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock, or any combination thereof. If an outstanding Purchase Right for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled, the shares of Stock allocable to the unexercised portion of that Purchase Right shall again be available for issuance under the Plan.
4.2    Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company and the requirements of Section 424 of the Code to the extent applicable, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse

9



stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (excepting regular, periodic cash dividends) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number and kind of shares subject to the Plan, any limit on the number of shares which may be purchased by any Participant during an Offering Period or Purchase Period (as described in Sections 8.1 and 8.2), the number of shares subject to each Purchase Right, and in the Purchase Price in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’ rights under the Plan. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.” If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to outstanding Purchase Rights are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the New Shares), the Committee may unilaterally amend the outstanding Purchase Rights to provide that such Purchase Rights are for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of, the outstanding Purchase Rights shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as determined by the Committee, in its discretion. Any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the Purchase Price be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the stock subject to the Purchase Right. The adjustments determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be final, binding and conclusive.
5.    Eligibility.
5.1    Employees Eligible to Participate. Each Employee of a Participating Company is eligible to participate in the Plan and shall be deemed an Eligible Employee, except the following:
(a)    Any Employee who is customarily employed by the Participating Company Group for twenty (20) hours or less per week; or
(b)    Any Employee who is customarily employed by the Participating Company Group for not more than five (5) months in any calendar year.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Employee of a Participating Company designated in Appendix A as a Participating Company who is a citizen or resident of a non-United States jurisdiction (without regard to whether the Employee is also a citizen of the United States or a resident alien) may be excluded from participation in the Plan or an Offering hereunder if either (i) the grant of a Purchase Right under the Plan or Offering to a citizen or resident of the foreign jurisdiction is prohibited under the Local Law of such jurisdiction or (ii) compliance with the Local Law of such jurisdiction would cause the Plan or Offering to violate the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.
5.2    Exclusion of Certain Stockholders. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Employee shall be treated as an Eligible Employee and granted a Purchase Right under the Plan if, immediately after such grant, the Employee would own, or hold options to purchase, stock of the Company or of any Parent Corporation or Subsidiary Corporation possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of such corporation, as determined in accordance with Section 423(b)(3) of the Code. For purposes of this Section 5.2, the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the Code shall apply in determining the stock ownership of such Employee.
5.3    Determination by Company. The Company shall determine in good faith and in the exercise of its discretion whether an individual has become or has ceased to be an Employee or an Eligible

10



Employee and the effective date of such individual’s attainment or termination of such status, as the case may be. For purposes of an individual’s participation in or other rights, if any, under the Plan as of the time of the Company’s determination of whether or not the individual is an Employee, all such determinations by the Company shall be final, binding and conclusive as to such rights, if any, notwithstanding that the Company or any court of law or governmental agency subsequently makes a contrary determination as to such individual’s status as an Employee.
6.    Offerings.
6.1    Offering Periods. The Plan shall be implemented by sequential Offerings of approximately six (6) months’ duration or such other duration as the Committee shall determine. Offering Periods shall commence on or about the fifteenth (15th) days of June and December of each year and end on or about the fourteenth (14th) days of the next December and June respectively, occurring thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may establish additional or alternative concurrent, sequential or overlapping Offering Periods, a different duration for one or more Offering Periods or different commencing or ending dates for such Offering Periods; provided, however, that no Offering Period may have a duration exceeding twenty-seven (27) months. If the Committee shall so determine in its discretion, each Offering Period may consist of two (2) or more consecutive Purchase Periods having such duration as the Committee shall specify, and the last day of each such Purchase Period shall be a Purchase Date. If the first or last day of an Offering Period or a Purchase Period is not a day on which the principal stock exchange or quotation system on which the Stock is then listed is open for trading, the Company shall specify the trading day that will be deemed the first or last day, as the case may be, of the Offering Period or Purchase Period.
6.2    Non-United States Offerings. The Committee shall communicate to the Employees eligible to participate in a Non-United States Offering those terms of the Non-United States Offering that differ from the terms otherwise applicable to the relevant Offering covering Eligible Employees employed by a Participating Company within the United States a reasonable period of time prior to the Subscription Date for such Non-United States Offering.
7.    Participation in the Plan.
7.1    Initial Participation.
(a)    Generally. An Eligible Employee may become a Participant in an Offering Period by delivering a properly completed written or electronic Subscription Agreement to the Company office or representative designated by the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company) not later than the close of business on the Subscription Date established by the Company for that Offering Period. An Eligible Employee who does not deliver a properly completed Subscription Agreement in the manner permitted or required on or before the Subscription Date for an Offering Period shall not participate in the Plan for that Offering Period or for any subsequent Offering Period unless the Eligible Employee subsequently delivers a properly completed Subscription Agreement to the appropriate Company office or representative on or before the Subscription Date for such subsequent Offering Period. An Employee who becomes an Eligible Employee after the Offering Date of an Offering Period shall not be eligible to participate in that Offering Period but may participate in any subsequent Offering Period provided the Employee is still an Eligible Employee as of the Offering Date of such subsequent Offering Period.
7.2    Continued Participation.

11



(a)    Generally. A Participant shall automatically participate in the next Offering Period commencing immediately after the final Purchase Date of each Offering Period in which the Participant participates provided that the Participant remains an Eligible Employee on the Offering Date of the new Offering Period and has not either (a) withdrawn from the Plan pursuant to Section 12.1, or (b) terminated employment or otherwise ceased to be an Eligible Employee as provided in Section 13. A Participant who may automatically participate in a subsequent Offering Period, as provided in this Section, is not required to deliver any additional Subscription Agreement for the subsequent Offering Period in order to continue participation in the Plan. However, a Participant may deliver a new Subscription Agreement for a subsequent Offering Period in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 7.1(a) if the Participant desires to change any of the elections contained in the Participant’s then effective Subscription Agreement.
8.    Right to Purchase Shares.
8.1    Grant of Purchase Right. Except as provided below, on the Offering Date of each Offering Period, each Participant in such Offering Period shall be granted automatically a Purchase Right consisting of an option to purchase the lesser of (a) that number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing the Dollar Limit (determined as provided below) by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Offering Date or (b) the Share Limit (determined as provided below). The Committee may, in its discretion and prior to the Offering Date of any Offering Period, (i) change the method of, or any of the foregoing factors in, determining the number of shares of Stock subject to Purchase Rights to be granted on such Offering Date, or (ii) specify a maximum aggregate number of shares that may be purchased by all Participants in an Offering or on any Purchase Date within an Offering Period. No Purchase Right shall be granted on an Offering Date to any person who is not, on such Offering Date, an Eligible Employee. For the purposes of this Section, the Dollar Limit shall be determined by multiplying $2,083.33 by the number of months (rounded to the nearest whole month) in the Offering Period and rounding to the nearest whole dollar, and the Share Limit shall be two thousand four hundred (2,400) shares.
8.2    Calendar Year Purchase Limitation. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participants shall be granted a Purchase Right which permits their right to purchase shares of Stock under the Plan to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated with such Participant’s rights to purchase shares under all other employee stock purchase plans of a Participating Company intended to meet the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, exceeds Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) in Fair Market Value (or such other limit, if any, as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which such Purchase Right is outstanding at any time. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Fair Market Value of shares purchased during a given Offering Period shall be determined as of the Offering Date for such Offering Period. The limitation described in this Section shall be applied in conformance with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code or any successor thereto and the regulations thereunder.
9.    Purchase Price.
The Purchase Price at which each share of Stock may be acquired in an Offering Period upon the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase Right shall be established by the Committee; provided, however, that the Purchase Price on each Purchase Date shall not be less than eightyfive percent (85%) of the lesser of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Offering Period or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date. Subject to adjustment as provided by the Plan and unless otherwise provided by the Committee, the Purchase Price for each Offering Period shall be eightyfive percent (85%) of the lesser of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Offering Period or (b) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Purchase Date.

12



10.    Accumulation of Purchase Price through Payroll Deduction.
Except as provided in Section 11.1(b) with respect to a Non-United States Offering, shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of all or any portion of a Purchase Right may be paid for only by means of payroll deductions from the Participant’s Compensation accumulated during the Offering Period for which such Purchase Right was granted, subject to the following:
10.1    Amount of Payroll Deductions. Except as otherwise provided herein, the amount to be deducted under the Plan from a Participant’s Compensation on each pay day during an Offering Period shall be determined by the Participant’s Subscription Agreement. The Subscription Agreement shall set forth the percentage of the Participant’s Compensation to be deducted on each pay day during an Offering Period in whole percentages of not less than one percent (1%) (except as a result of an election pursuant to Section 10.3 to stop payroll deductions effective following the first pay day during an Offering) or more than fifteen percent (15%). The Committee may change the foregoing limits on payroll deductions effective as of any Offering Date.
10.2    Commencement of Payroll Deductions. Payroll deductions shall commence on the first pay day occurring on or following the Offering Date and shall continue to the end of the Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided herein.
10.3    Election to Decrease or Stop Payroll Deductions. During an Offering Period, a Participants may elect to decrease the rate of or to stop (but not to increase) deductions from their Compensation by delivering to the Company office or representative designated by the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company) an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on or before the “Change Notice Date.” The Change Notice Date shall be a date prior to the beginning of the first pay period for which such election is to be effective as established by the Company from time to time and announced to the Participants. Participants who elects, effective following the first pay day of an Offering Period, to decrease the rate of their payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain a Participant in such Offering Period unless the Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1.
10.4    Election to Increase Payroll Deductions for Subsequent Offering. Prior to the Offering Date of any Offering Period, an Eligible Employee may elect to increase the rate of deductions from Compensation (not in excess of the limit set forth in Section 10.1) effective with the next Offering Period by delivering to the Company office or representative designated by the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company) an amended Subscription Agreement authorizing such change on or before the Change Notice Date prior to the commencement of such new Offering Period.
10.5    Administrative Suspension of Payroll Deductions. The Company may, in its discretion, suspend a Participant’s payroll deductions under the Plan as the Company deems advisable to avoid accumulating payroll deductions in excess of the amount that could reasonably be anticipated to purchase the maximum number of shares of Stock permitted (a) under the Participant’s Purchase Right, or (b) during a calendar year under the limit set forth in Section 8.2. Unless the Participant has either withdrawn from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1 or has ceased to be an Eligible Employee, suspended payroll deductions shall be resumed at the rate specified in the Participant’s then effective Subscription Agreement either (i) at the beginning of the next Offering Period if the reason for suspension was clause (a) in the preceding sentence, or (ii) at the beginning of the next Offering Period having a first Purchase Date that falls within the subsequent calendar year if the reason for suspension was clause (b) in the preceding sentence.

13



10.6    Participant Accounts. Individual bookkeeping accounts shall be maintained for each Participant. All payroll deductions from a Participant’s Compensation (and other amounts received from a non-United States Participant pursuant to Section 11.1(b)) shall be credited to such Participant’s Plan account and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. All such amounts received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose.
10.7    No Interest Paid. Interest shall not be paid on sums deducted from a Participant’s Compensation pursuant to the Plan or otherwise credited to the Participant’s Plan account.
10.8    Voluntary Withdrawal from Plan Account. Participants may withdraw all or any portion of the payroll deductions credited to their Plan account and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by delivering to the Company a written notice on a form provided by the Company for such purpose. Participants who withdraws the entire remaining balance credited to their Plan account shall be deemed to have withdrawn from the Plan in accordance with Section 12.1. Amounts withdrawn shall be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal and may not be applied to the purchase of shares in any Offering under the Plan. The Company may from time to time establish or change limitations on the frequency of withdrawals permitted under this Section, establish a minimum dollar amount that must be retained in the Participant’s Plan account, or terminate the withdrawal right provided by this Section.
11.    Purchase of Shares.
11.1    Exercise of Purchase Right.
(a)    Generally. Except as provided in Section 11.1(b), on each Purchase Date of an Offering Period, each Participant who has not withdrawn from the Plan and whose participation in the Offering has not otherwise terminated before such Purchase Date shall automatically acquire pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right the number of whole shares of Stock determined by dividing (a) the total amount of the Participant’s payroll deductions accumulated in the Participant’s Plan account during the Offering Period and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock by (b) the Purchase Price. However, in no event shall the number of shares purchased by the Participant during an Offering Period exceed the number of shares subject to the Participant’s Purchase Right. No shares of Stock shall be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of a Participant whose participation in the Offering or the Plan has terminated before such Purchase Date.
(b)    Purchase by Non-United States Participants for Whom Payroll Deductions Are Prohibited by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding Section 11.1(a), where payroll deductions on behalf of Participants who are citizens or residents of countries other than the United States (without regard to whether they are also citizens of the United States or resident aliens) are prohibited or made impracticable by applicable Local Law, the Committee may establish a separate Offering (a Non-United States Offering) covering all Eligible Employees of one or more Participating Companies subject to such prohibition or restrictions on payroll deductions. The Non-United States Offering shall provide another method for payment of the Purchase Price with such terms and conditions as shall be administratively convenient and comply with applicable Local Law. On each Purchase Date of the Offering Period applicable to a Non-United States Offering, each Participant who has not withdrawn from the Plan and whose participation in such Offering Period has not otherwise terminated before such Purchase Date shall automatically acquire pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right a number of whole shares of Stock determined in accordance with Section 11.1(a) to the extent of the total amount of the Participant’s Plan account balance accumulated during the Offering Period in accordance with the method established by the Committee and not previously applied toward the purchase of Stock. However, in no event shall the number of

14



shares purchased by a Participant during such Offering Period exceed the number of shares subject to the Participant’s Purchase Right. The Company shall refund to a Participant in a Non-United States Offering in accordance with Section 11.4 any excess Purchase Price payment received from such Participant.
11.2    Pro Rata Allocation of Shares. If the number of shares of Stock which might be purchased by all Participants on a Purchase Date exceeds the number of shares of Stock remaining available for issuance under the Plan or the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be purchased on such Purchase Date pursuant to a limit established by the Committee pursuant to Section 8.1 or Section 8.3, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available in as uniform a manner as practicable and as the Company determines to be equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any Participant shall be disregarded.
11.3    Delivery of Title to Shares. Subject to any governing rules or regulations, as soon as practicable after each Purchase Date, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued to or for the benefit of each Participant the shares of Stock acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date by means of one or more of the following: (a) by delivering to the Participant evidence of book entry shares of Stock credited to the account of the Participant, (b) by depositing such shares of Stock for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship, or (c) by delivering such shares of Stock to the Participant in certificate form.
11.4    Return of Plan Account Balance. Any cash balance remaining in a Participant’s Plan account following any Purchase Date shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after such Purchase Date. However, if the cash balance to be returned to a Participant pursuant to the preceding sentence is less than the amount that would have been necessary to purchase an additional whole share of Stock on such Purchase Date, the Company may retain the cash balance in the Participant’s Plan account to be applied toward the purchase of shares of Stock in the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period.
11.5    Tax Withholding. At the time a Participant’s Purchase Right is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time a Participant disposes of some or all of the shares of Stock he or she acquires under the Plan, the Participant shall make adequate provision for the federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including social insurance), if any, required to be withheld by any Participating Company upon exercise of the Purchase Right or upon such disposition of shares, respectively. A Participating Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations. The Company or any other Participating Company shall have the right to take such other action as it determines to be necessary or advisable to satisfy withholding obligations for such taxes.
11.6    Expiration of Purchase Right. Any portion of a Participant’s Purchase Right remaining unexercised after the end of the Offering Period to which the Purchase Right relates shall expire immediately upon the end of the Offering Period.
11.7    Provision of Reports and Stockholder Information to Participants. Each Participant who has exercised all or part of their Purchase Right shall receive, as soon as practicable after the Purchase Date, a report of such Participant’s Plan account setting forth the total amount credited to their Plan account prior to such exercise, the number of shares of Stock purchased, the Purchase Price for such shares, the date of purchase and the cash balance, if any, remaining immediately after such purchase that is to be refunded or retained in the Participant’s Plan account pursuant to Section 11.4. The report required by this Section may be delivered or made available in such form and by such means, including by electronic transmission, as the Company may determine. In addition,

15



each Participant shall be provided information concerning the Company equivalent to that information provided generally to the Company’s common stockholders.
12.    Withdrawal from Plan.
12.1    Voluntary Withdrawal from the Plan. A Participant may withdraw from the Plan by signing and delivering to the Company office or representative designated by the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company) a written or electronic notice of withdrawal on a form provided by the Company for this purpose. Such withdrawal may be elected at any time prior to the end of an Offering Period; provided, however, that if a Participant withdraws from the Plan after a Purchase Date, the withdrawal shall not affect shares of Stock acquired by the Participant on such Purchase Date. A Participant who voluntarily withdraws from the Plan is prohibited from resuming participation in the Plan in the same Offering from which he or she withdrew, but may participate in any subsequent Offering by again satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1. The Company may impose, from time to time, a requirement that the notice of withdrawal from the Plan be on file with the Company office or representative designated by the Company for a reasonable period prior to the effectiveness of the Participant’s withdrawal.
12.2    Automatic Withdrawal from Offering and Re-enrollment. If the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on a Purchase Date within an Offering Period (the “Old Offering Period”), other than the final Purchase Date of the Old Offering Period, is less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Offering Date of the Old Offering Period, then every Participant in the Old Offering Period automatically shall be (a) withdrawn from the Old Offering Period immediately after the purchase of shares on such Purchase Date and (b) enrolled in a new Offering Period of the same duration as the full term of the Old Offering Period commencing on the trading day immediately following the purchase of shares (which shall be the Offering Date of the new Offering Period), provided that the Participant then remains an Eligible Employee.
12.3    Return of Plan Account Balance. Upon a Participant’s voluntary withdrawal from the Plan pursuant to Section 12.1, the Participant’s accumulated Plan account balance which has not been applied toward the purchase of shares of Stock shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after the withdrawal, without the payment of any interest, and the Participant’s interest in the Plan and the Offering shall terminate. Such amounts to be refunded in accordance with this Section may not be applied to any other Offering under the Plan.
13.    Termination of Employment or Eligibility.
Upon a Participant’s ceasing, prior to a Purchase Date, to be an Employee of the Participating Company Group for any reason, including retirement, disability or death, or upon the failure of a Participant to remain an Eligible Employee, the Participant’s participation in the Plan shall terminate immediately. In such event, the Participant’s Plan account balance which has not been applied toward the purchase of shares of Stock shall, as soon as practicable, be returned to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s beneficiary designated in accordance with Section 20, if any, or legal representative, and all of the Participant’s rights under the Plan shall terminate. Interest shall not be paid on sums returned pursuant to this Section 13. A Participant whose participation has been so terminated may again become eligible to participate in the Plan by satisfying the requirements of Sections 5 and 7.1.

16



14.    Effect of Change in Control on Purchase Rights.
In the event of a Change in Control, the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing corporation or parent thereof, as the case may be (the Acquiring Corporation), may, without the consent of any Participant, assume or continue the Company’s rights and obligations under outstanding Purchase Rights or substitute substantially equivalent purchase rights for the Acquiring Corporation’s stock. If the Acquiring Corporation elects not to assume, continue or substitute for the outstanding Purchase Rights, the Purchase Date of the then current Offering Period shall be accelerated to a date before the date of the Change in Control specified by the Committee, but the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding Purchase Rights shall not be adjusted. All Purchase Rights which are neither assumed or continued by the Acquiring Corporation in connection with the Change in Control nor exercised as of the date of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding effective as of the date of the Change in Control.
15.    Nontransferability of Purchase Rights.
Neither payroll deductions or other amounts credited to a Participant’s Plan account nor a Participant’s Purchase Right may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any manner other than as provided by the Plan or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. (A beneficiary designation pursuant to Section 20 shall not be treated as a disposition for this purpose.) Any such attempted assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw from the Plan as provided in Section 12.1. A Purchase Right shall be exercisable during the lifetime of the Participant only by the Participant.
16.    Compliance with Applicable Law.
The issuance of shares of Stock or other property under the Plan shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign securities law and other applicable laws, rules and regulations, and approvals by government agencies as may be required or as the Company deems necessary or advisable. A Purchase Right may not be exercised if the issuance of shares upon such exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any securities exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Purchase Right may be exercised unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Purchase Right be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Right, or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Right may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares under the Plan shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of a Purchase Right, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
17.    Rights as a Stockholder and Employee.
A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder by virtue of the Participant’s participation in the Plan until the date of the issuance of the shares of Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Participant’s

17



Purchase Right (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.2. Nothing herein shall confer upon a Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Participating Company Group or interfere in any way with any right of any Participating Company to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.
18.    Notification of Disposition of Shares.
The Company may require the Participant to give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares of Stock acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right. The Company may require that until such time as a Participant disposes of shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of a Purchase Right, the Participant shall hold all such shares in the Participant’s name until the later of two years after the date of grant of such Purchase Right or one year after the date of exercise of such Purchase Right. The Company may direct that the certificates evidencing shares of Stock acquired by exercise of a Purchase Right refer to such requirement to give prompt notice of disposition.
19.    Legends.
The Company may at any time place legends or other identifying symbols referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions or any provision convenient in the administration of the Plan on some or all of the certificates representing shares of Stock issued under the Plan. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to a Purchase Right in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section. Unless otherwise specified by the Company, legends placed on such certificates may include but shall not be limited to the following:
“THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED BY THE CORPORATION TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER UPON THE PURCHASE OF SHARES UNDER AN EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN AS DEFINED IN SECTION 423 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED. THE TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY SHALL NOTIFY THE CORPORATION IMMEDIATELY OF ANY TRANSFER OF THE SHARES BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER HEREOF. THE REGISTERED HOLDER SHALL HOLD ALL SHARES PURCHASED UNDER THE PLAN IN THE REGISTERED HOLDER’S NAME (AND NOT IN THE NAME OF ANY NOMINEE).”
20.    Designation of Beneficiary.
20.1    Designation Procedure. Subject to applicable Local Law and procedures, a Participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive (a) shares and cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies subsequent to a Purchase Date but prior to delivery to the Participant of such shares and cash, or (b) cash, if any, from the Participant’s Plan account if the Participant dies prior to the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation may be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse. Participants may change their beneficiary designation at any time by written notice to the Company.
20.2    Absence of Beneficiary Designation. If a Participant dies without an effective designation pursuant to Section 20.1 of a beneficiary who is living at the time of the Participant’s death, the

18



Company shall deliver any shares or cash credited to the Participant’s Plan account to the Participant’s legal representative or as otherwise required by applicable law.
21.    Notices.
All notices or other communications by a Participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.
22.    Amendment or Termination of the Plan.
The Committee may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan, except that (a) no such amendment, suspension or termination shall affect Purchase Rights previously granted under the Plan unless expressly provided by the Committee, and (b) no such amendment, suspension or termination may adversely affect a Purchase Right previously granted under the Plan without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent permitted by the Plan or as may be necessary to qualify the Plan as an employee stock purchase plan pursuant to Section 423 of the Code or to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule. In addition, an amendment to the Plan must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months of the adoption of such amendment if such amendment would authorize the sale of more shares than are then authorized for issuance under the Plan or would change the definition of the corporations that may be designated by the Committee as Participating Companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Committee determines that continuation of the Plan or an Offering would result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences to the Company, the Committee may, in its discretion and without the consent of any Participant, including with respect to an Offering Period then in progress: (i) terminate the Plan or any Offering Period, (ii) accelerate the Purchase Date of any Offering Period, (iii) reduce the discount or the method of determining the Purchase Price in any Offering Period (e.g., by determining the Purchase Price solely on the basis of the Fair Market Value on the Purchase Date), (iv) reduce the maximum number of shares of Stock that may be purchased in any Offering Period, or (v) take any combination of the foregoing actions.
23.    No Representations with Respect to Tax Qualification.
Although the Company may endeavor to (a) qualify Purchase Rights for favorable tax treatment under the laws of the United States or jurisdictions outside of the United States (e.g., options granted under Section 423 of the Code) or (b) avoid adverse tax treatment (e.g., under Section 409A of the Code), the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain favorable or avoid unfavorable tax treatment, anything to the contrary in this Plan. The Company shall be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative tax impact on Participants under the Plan.
24.    Choice of Law.
Except to the extent governed by applicable federal law, the validity, interpretation, construction and performance of the Plan and each Subscription Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law rules.

1.1. Establishment. The Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. 2021 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) is hereby adopted February 16, 2021, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company (the date of such stockholder approval, the “Effective Date”). The Plan is intended as the successor to the Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. 2011 Stock Plan (the “Prior Plan”). On the Effective Date, the Prior Plan shall terminate such that no additional awards may be granted thereunder after such date. The terms of the Prior Plan remain in effect with respect to outstanding awards granted under the Prior Plan until they are exercised, settled, expired, forfeited or otherwise canceled in full. All Awards granted on or after the Effective Date of this Plan shall be subject to the terms of this Plan.
1.2. Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Participating Company Group and its stockholders by providing an incentive to attract and retain the best qualified personnel to perform services for the Participating Company Group, by motivating such persons to contribute to the growth and profitability of the Participating Company Group, by aligning their interests with interests of the Company’s stockholders, and by rewarding such persons for their services by tying a significant portion of their total compensation package to the success of the Company. The Plan seeks to achieve this purpose by providing for Awards in the form of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Awards, Performance Shares, Performance Units, and Restricted Stock Units as described below.
1.3. Term of Plan. The Plan shall continue in effect until the earlier of its termination by the Board or the date on which all of the shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan have been issued and all restrictions on such shares under the terms of the Plan and the agreements evidencing Awards granted under the Plan have lapsed. However, Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall be granted, if at all, within ten (10) years from the Effective Date. The Company intends that the Plan comply with Section 409A (including any amendments to or replacements of such section), and the Plan shall be so construed.
2.Definitions and Construction.

For this purpose, the term “control” (including the term “controlled by”) means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the relevant entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; or shall have such other meaning assigned such term for the purposes of registration on Form S-8 under the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any amount constituting deferred compensation subject to and not exempted from the requirements of Section 409A would become payable under this Plan by reason of a Change in Control, such amount shall become payable only if the event constituting a Change in Control would also constitute a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A.
For purposes of the preceding sentence, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting securities of one or more corporations or other business entities which own the Company or the Transferee, as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business entities. The Committee shall determine whether multiple sales or exchanges of the voting securities of the Company or multiple Ownership Change Events are related, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

4.Shares Subject to Plan.
4.1. Maximum Number of Shares Issuable.
(a).Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2 and this Section 4.1, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan pursuant to Awards granted hereunder shall be seventeen million and eight hundred thousand (17,800,000) shares of Stock, less one share of Stock for every one share that was subject to an option or stock appreciation right granted after December 31, 2020 and prior to the effective date of the Plan under the Prior Plan and two (2) shares of stock for every one share that was subject to an award other than an option or stock appreciation right granted after December 31, 2020 and prior to the effective date of the Plan under the Prior Plan. Any shares of Stock that are subject to Options or SARs shall be counted against this limit as one share for every one share granted, and any shares of Stock that are subject to Awards other than Options or SARs shall be counted against this limit as two (2) shares for every one share granted. The available share reserve as stated above is the sum of (i) the number of shares available for grant under the Prior Plan as of December 31, 2020 plus (ii) an additional six million nine hundred and ninety three thousand three hundred and sixty nine (6,993,369) new shares, subject to adjustment as set forth below. No new awards shall be granted under the Prior Plan on or after the Effective Date. Shares issuable under this Plan shall consist of authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of Stock or any combination thereof.
(b).If an outstanding Award granted under this Plan (or after December 31, 2020, an outstanding award granted under the Prior Plan), for any reason expires or is terminated or canceled without having been exercised or settled in full, or if shares of Stock acquired pursuant to an Award granted under this Plan (or after December 31, 2020, shares of Stock pursuant to an award granted under the Prior Plan) that are subject to forfeiture or repurchase are forfeited or repurchased by the Company, the shares of Stock allocable to the terminated portion of such Award or such forfeited or repurchased shares of Stock (or award or shares of stock subject to Prior Plan awards), shall again be available for issuance under the Plan in accordance with Section 4.1(c) below. Shares withheld or reacquired by the Company in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations for Awards other than Options
8



or SARs (or after December 31, 2020, for awards other than options or stock appreciation rights granted under the Prior Plan), shall again be available for issuance under the Plan, in accordance with Section 4.1(c) below. Shares withheld or reacquired by the Company in satisfaction of tax withholding obligations or to cover an exercise price for Options or SARs (or after December 31, 2020, for options or stock appreciation rights granted under the Prior Plan), shall not be available for issuance under the Plan. Upon payment in shares of Stock pursuant to the exercise of a SAR, the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of Shares for which the SAR is exercised. Shares of Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued pursuant to the Plan with respect to any portion of an Award that is settled in cash. Further, shares reacquired by the Company on the open market or otherwise using cash proceeds from the exercise of Options (or options granted under the Prior Plan) shall not be added to the shares of Stock authorized for grant under this Plan.
(c).Any shares of Stock that again become available for Awards under the Plan pursuant to this Section shall be added as (i) one share of Stock for every one share subject to Options or SARs granted under the Plan or options or stock appreciation rights granted under the Prior Plan, and (ii) as two (2) shares of Stock for every one share subject to Awards other than Options or SARs granted under the Plan or awards other than options or stock appreciation rights granted under the Prior Plan.
4.2. Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and kind of shares subject to the Plan and to any outstanding Awards, in the Award limits set forth in Section 5.4, and in the exercise or purchase price per share under any outstanding Award in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Participants’ rights under the Plan. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.” If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to outstanding Awards are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the “New Shares”), the Committee may unilaterally amend the outstanding Options to provide that such Options are exercisable for New Shares. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of, the outstanding Awards shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as determined by the Committee, in its discretion. Any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Committee in its sole discretion, may also make such adjustments in the terms of any Award to reflect, or related to, such changes in the capital structure of the Company or distributions as it deems appropriate, including modification of Performance Goals, Performance Award Formulas, and Performance Periods. The adjustments determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be final, binding and conclusive.
4.3. Assumption or Substitution of Awards. The Committee may, without affecting the number of shares of Stock reserved or available hereunder, authorize the issuance or assumption of benefits under this Plan in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate, subject to compliance with Section 409A and any other applicable provisions of the Code. In addition, subject to compliance with applicable laws, and listing requirements, shares available for grant under a stockholder approved plan of an acquired company (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the transaction) may be used for awards under the Plan to individuals who were
9



not Employees or Directors of the Participating Company Group prior to the transaction and shall not reduce the number of shares otherwise available for issuance under the Plan.
5.Eligibility and Award Limitations.
5.1. Persons Eligible for Awards. Awards may be granted only to Employees, Consultants and Directors. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, “Employees,” “Consultants” and “Directors” shall include prospective Employees, prospective Consultants and prospective Directors to whom Awards are offered to be granted in connection with written offers of an employment or other service relationship with the Participating Company Group; provided, however, that no such Award shall have an effective grant date prior to the date on which such person commences Service.
5.2. Participation. Awards are granted solely at the discretion of the Committee. Eligible persons may be granted more than one Award. However, eligibility in accordance with this Section shall not entitle any person to be granted an Award, or, having been granted an Award, to be granted an additional Award.
5.3. Incentive Stock Option Limitations.
(a).Persons Eligible.  An Incentive Stock Option may be granted only to a person who, on the effective date of grant, is an Employee of the Company, a Parent Corporation or a Subsidiary Corporation (each being an “ISO-Qualifying Corporation”). Any person who is not an Employee of an ISO-Qualifying Corporation on the effective date of the grant of an Option to such person may be granted only a Nonstatutory Stock Option. An Incentive Stock Option granted to a prospective Employee upon the condition that such person become an Employee of an ISO-Qualifying Corporation shall be deemed granted effective on the date such person commences Service with an ISO-Qualifying Corporation, with an exercise price determined as of such date in accordance with Section 6.1.
(b).Fair Market Value Limitation.  To the extent that options designated as Incentive Stock Options (granted under all stock option plans of the Participating Company Group, including the Plan) become exercisable by a Participant for the first time during any calendar year for Stock having a Fair Market Value greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the portion of such options which exceeds such amount shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section, options designated as Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of Stock shall be determined as of the time the option with respect to such Stock is granted. If the Code is amended to provide for a limitation different from that set forth in this Section, such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of the date and with respect to such Options as required or permitted by such amendment to the Code. If an Option is treated as an Incentive Stock Option in part and as a Nonstatutory Stock Option in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this Section, the Participant may designate which portion of such Option the Participant is exercising. In the absence of such designation, the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised the Incentive Stock Option portion of the Option first. Upon exercise, shares issued pursuant to each such portion shall be separately identified.
5.4. Award Limits.
(a).Maximum Number of Shares Issuable Pursuant to Incentive Stock Options.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options shall not exceed the aggregate number of shares of Stock set forth in Section 4.1. The maximum aggregate number
10



of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan pursuant to all Awards other than Incentive Stock Options shall be the number of shares determined in accordance with Section 4.1, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2.
(b).Nonemployee Director Awards. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the aggregate grant date fair value (computed as of the date of grant in accordance with applicable financial accounting rules) of all Awards granted to any Nonemployee Director in his or her capacity as a Director during any single calendar year, plus the total cash compensation paid to such director for services rendered for such calendar year, shall not exceed six hundred thousand dollars ($600,000).
6.Terms and Conditions of Options.
Options shall be evidenced by Award Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, in such form as the Committee shall from time to time establish. No Option or purported Option shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Award Agreement. Award Agreements evidencing Options may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
6.1. Exercise Price. The exercise price for each Option shall be established in the discretion of the Committee; provided, however, that (a) the exercise price per share shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the Option and (b) no Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Owner shall have an exercise price per share less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option (whether an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option) may be granted with an exercise price lower than the minimum exercise price set forth above if such Option is granted pursuant to an assumption or substitution for another option in a manner qualifying under the provisions of Section 424(a) of the Code.
6.2. Exercisability and Term of Options.
(a).Option Vesting and Exercisability.   Options shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon such event or events, and subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option; provided, however, that (i) no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of such Option, (ii) no Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Owner shall be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years after the effective date of grant of such Option, and (iii) no Option granted to an Employee who is a non-exempt employee for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, shall be first exercisable until at least six (6) months following the date of grant of such Option (except in the event of such Employee’s death, disability or retirement, upon a Change in Control, or as otherwise permitted by the Worker Economic Opportunity Act). Subject to the foregoing, unless otherwise specified by the Committee in the grant of an Option, each Option shall terminate ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of the Option, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its provisions.
(b).Participant Responsibility for Exercise of Option.  Each Participant is responsible for taking any and all actions as may be required to exercise any Option in a timely manner, and for properly executing any documents as may be required for the exercise of an Option in accordance with such rules and procedures as may be established from time to time. By signing an Option Agreement each Participant acknowledges that information regarding the procedures and requirements for the
11



exercise of any Option is available upon such Participant’s request. The Company shall have no duty or obligation to notify any Participant of the expiration date of any Option.
6.3. Payment of Exercise Price.
(a).Forms of Consideration Authorized.  Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the exercise price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased pursuant to any Option shall be made (i) in cash, by check or in cash equivalent, (ii) by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value not less than the exercise price, (iii) by delivery of a properly executed notice of exercise together with irrevocable instructions to a broker providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the Option (including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) (a “Cashless Exercise”), (iv) to the extent permitted by the Committee, in its sole discretion, by net share settlement (a “Net Settlement”); provided that such Net Settlement shall not be permitted with respect to an Incentive Stock Option unless the Participant consents to the Option being converted to a Nonstatutory Stock Option, (v) by such other consideration as may be approved by the Committee from time to time to the extent permitted by applicable law, or (vi) by any combination thereof. The Committee may at any time or from time to time grant Options which do not permit all of the foregoing forms of consideration to be used in payment of the exercise price or which otherwise restrict one or more forms of consideration.
(b).Limitations on Forms of Consideration.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock to the extent such tender or attestation would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock. The Company reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, to establish, decline to approve or terminate any program or procedures for the exercise of Options by means of a Cashless Exercise, including with respect to one or more Participants specified by the Company notwithstanding that such program or procedures may be available to other Participants.
6.4. Effect of Termination of Service.
(a).Option Exercisability.  Subject to earlier termination of the Option as otherwise provided herein and unless otherwise provided by the Committee, an Option shall be exercisable after a Participant’s termination of Service only during the applicable time periods provided in the Award Agreement.
(b).Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Committee provides otherwise in the Award Agreement, if the exercise of an Option within the applicable time periods is prevented by the provisions of Section 12 below, the Option shall remain exercisable until three (3) months (or such longer period of time as determined by the Committee, in its discretion) after the date the Participant is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
6.5. Transferability of Options. During the lifetime of the Participant, an Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option, the Option shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by the Committee, in its discretion, a Nonstatutory Stock
12



Option shall be assignable or transferable subject to the applicable limitations, if any, described in the General Instructions to Form S-8 Registration Statement under the Securities Act or as necessary to qualify for an exemption from registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. An Option may not be transferred to a third-party financial institution for value without the approval of the stockholders.
6.6. No Dividends or Dividend Equivalents. No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid or accrued on any Options granted under this Plan.
7.Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights.
Stock Appreciation Rights shall be evidenced by Award Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award, in such form as the Committee shall from time to time establish. No SAR or purported SAR shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Award Agreement. Award Agreements evidencing SARs may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
7.1. Types of SARs Authorized. SARs may be granted in tandem with all or any portion of a related Option (a “Tandem SAR”) or may be granted independently of any Option (a “Freestanding SAR”). A Tandem SAR may be granted either concurrently with the grant of the related Option or at any time thereafter prior to the complete exercise, termination, expiration or cancellation of such related Option.
7.2. Exercise Price. The exercise price for each SAR shall be established in the discretion of the Committee; provided, however, that (a) the exercise price per share subject to a Tandem SAR shall be the exercise price per share under the related Option and (b) the exercise price per share subject to a Freestanding SAR shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the effective date of grant of the SAR.
7.3. Exercisability and Term of SARs.
(a).Tandem SARs.  Tandem SARs shall be exercisable only at the time and to the extent, and only to the extent, that the related Option is exercisable, subject to such provisions as the Committee may specify where the Tandem SAR is granted with respect to less than the full number of shares of Stock subject to the related Option.
(b).Freestanding SARs. Freestanding SARs shall be exercisable at such time or times, or upon such event or events, and subject to such terms, conditions, performance criteria and restrictions as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such SAR; provided, however, that no Freestanding SAR shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years after the effective date of grant of such SAR.
7.4. Deemed Exercise of SARs. If, on the date on which an SAR would otherwise terminate or expire, the SAR by its terms remains exercisable immediately prior to such termination or expiration and, if so exercised, would result in a payment to the holder of such SAR, then any portion of such SAR which has not previously been exercised shall automatically be deemed to be exercised as of such date with respect to such portion, in accordance with Section 13, and except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law.
7.5. Effect of Termination of Service. Subject to earlier termination of the SAR as otherwise provided herein and unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the grant of an SAR and set forth in the Award Agreement, an SAR shall be exercisable after a Participant’s termination of Service only as provided in the Award Agreement.
13



7.6. Nontransferability of SARs. During the lifetime of the Participant, an SAR shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Prior to the exercise of an SAR, the SAR shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.
7.7. No Dividends or Dividend Equivalents. No dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid or accrued on any SAR granted under this Plan.
8.Terms and Conditions of Stock Awards.
Stock Awards may be granted with or without Vesting Conditions and may or may not require the payment of cash consideration. Stock Awards shall be evidenced by Award Agreements specifying the number of shares of Stock subject to the Award, in such form as the Committee shall from time to time establish. No Stock Award or purported Stock Award shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Award Agreement. Award Agreements evidencing Stock Awards may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
8.1. Types of Restricted Stock Awards Authorized. Restricted Stock Awards may or may not require the payment of cash consideration for the stock. Restricted Stock Awards may be granted upon such conditions as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, upon the attainment of one or more Performance Goals described in Section 9.4. If either the grant of a Restricted Stock Award or the lapsing of the Restriction Period is to be contingent upon the attainment of one or more Performance Goals, the Committee shall follow procedures substantially equivalent to those set forth in Sections 9.3 through 9.5(b).
8.2. Purchase Price. The purchase price, if any, for shares of Stock issuable under each Stock Award and the means of payment shall be established by the Committee in its discretion.
8.3. Purchase Period. A Stock Award requiring the payment of cash consideration shall be exercisable within a period established by the Committee.
8.4. Vesting and Restrictions on Transfer. Shares issued pursuant to any Stock Award may or may not be made subject to Vesting Conditions based upon the satisfaction of such Service requirements, conditions, restrictions or performance criteria, including, without limitation, Performance Goals as described in Section 9.4, as shall be established by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Award. During any Restriction Period in which shares acquired pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award remain subject to Vesting Conditions, such shares may not be sold, exchanged, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise disposed of other than as provided in the Award Agreement or as provided in Section 8.7. Upon request by the Company, each Participant shall execute any agreement evidencing such transfer restrictions prior to the receipt of shares of Stock hereunder.
8.5. Voting Rights; Dividends and Distributions. Except as provided in this Section, Section 8.4 and any Award Agreement, during the Restriction Period applicable to shares subject to a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding shares of Stock, including the right to vote such shares. No cash dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award shall be paid to any Participant unless and until the Participant vests in such underlying Restricted Stock Award. Upon the vesting of a Restricted Stock Award, any cash dividends or distributions declared but not paid during the Restriction Period with respect to such Restricted Stock Award shall be paid to the Participant within thirty (30) days following the vesting date. In the event of a dividend or
14



distribution paid in shares of Stock or any other adjustment made upon a change in the capital structure of the Company as described in Section 4.2, any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than normal cash dividends) to which the Participant is entitled by reason of the Participant’s Restricted Stock Award shall be immediately subject to the same Vesting Conditions as the shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award with respect to which such dividends or distributions were paid or adjustments were made.
8.6. Effect of Termination of Service. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the grant of a Restricted Stock Award and set forth in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Service terminates for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary (including the Participant’s death or disability), then the Participant shall forfeit to the Company any shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award which remain subject to Vesting Conditions as of the date of the Participant’s termination of Service in exchange for the payment of the purchase price, if any, paid by the Participant. The Company shall have the right to assign at any time any repurchase right it may have, whether or not such right is then exercisable, to one or more persons as may be selected by the Company.
8.7. Nontransferability of Restricted Stock Award Rights. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award, rights to acquire such shares shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to a Restricted Stock Award granted to a Participant hereunder shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.
9.Terms and Conditions of Performance Awards.
Performance Awards shall be evidenced by Award Agreements in such form as the Committee shall from time to time establish. No Performance Award or purported Performance Award shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Award Agreement. Award Agreements evidencing Performance Awards may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
9.1. Types of Performance Awards Authorized. Performance Awards may be in the form of either Performance Shares or Performance Units. Each Award Agreement evidencing a Performance Award shall specify the number of Performance Shares or Performance Units subject thereto, the Performance Award Formula, the Performance Goal(s) and Performance Period applicable to the Award, and the other terms, conditions and restrictions of the Award.
9.2. Initial Value of Performance Shares and Performance Units. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in granting a Performance Award, each Performance Share shall have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Stock, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.2, on the effective date of grant of the Performance Share. Each Performance Unit shall have an initial value determined by the Committee; provided, however, that in no event shall the value be less than the aggregate Fair Market Value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. The final value payable to the Participant in settlement of a Performance Award determined on the basis of the applicable Performance Award Formula will depend on the extent to which Performance Goals established by the Committee are attained within the applicable Performance Period established by the Committee.
9.3. Establishment of Performance Period, Performance Goals and Performance Award Formula. In granting each Performance Award, the Committee shall establish in writing the applicable Performance Period, Performance Award Formula and one or more Performance Goals which, when measured at
15



the end of the Performance Period, shall determine on the basis of the Performance Award Formula the final value of the Performance Award to be paid to the Participant. The Company shall notify each Participant granted a Performance Award of the terms of such Award, including the Performance Period, Performance Goal(s) and Performance Award Formula.
9.4. Measurement of Performance Goals. Performance Goals shall be established by the Committee on the basis of targets to be attained (“Performance Targets”) with respect to one or more measures of business or financial performance or other criteria established by the Committee (each, a “Performance Measure”), subject to the following:
(a).Performance Measures.  Performance Measures based on objective criteria shall have the same meanings as used in the Company’s financial statements, or, if such terms are not used in the Company’s financial statements, they shall have the meaning applied pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, or as used generally in the Company’s industry, or in accordance with a methodology established by the Committee prior to the grant of the Performance Award. Performance Measures based on subjective criteria shall be determined on the basis established by the Committee in granting the Award. As specified by the Committee, Performance Measures may be calculated with respect to the Company and each Subsidiary Corporation and Parent Corporation consolidated therewith for financial reporting purposes or such division or other business unit of any of them as may be selected by the Committee. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee prior to the grant of the Performance Award, the Performance Measures applicable to a Performance Award shall be calculated prior to the accrual or payment of any Performance Award for the same Performance Period and excluding the effect (whether positive or negative) of any change in accounting standards or any unusual or infrequently occurring event or transaction, as determined by the Committee, occurring after the establishment of the Performance Goals applicable to the Performance Award. In addition, the Committee may, to the extent applicable, provide for exclusion of the impact of an event or occurrence which the Committee determines should appropriately be excluded, such as: (i) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and other unusual, infrequently occurring or non-recurring charges or events, (ii) asset write-downs, (iii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements, (iv) acquisitions or divestitures, (v) reorganization or change in the corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, (vi) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company, any subsidiary, division, business segment or business unit whether or not within the reasonable control of management, (vii) foreign exchange gains and losses, (viii) a change in the fiscal year of the Company, (ix) the refinancing or repurchase of bank loans or debt securities, (x) unbudgeted capital expenditures, (xi) the issuance or repurchase of equity securities and other changes in the number of outstanding shares, (xii) conversion of some or all of convertible securities to common stock, (xiii) any significant business interruption event, or (xiv) the effect of changes tax or in other laws or regulatory rules affecting reported results. Each such adjustment, if any, shall be made solely for the purpose of providing a consistent basis from period to period for the calculation of Performance Measures in order to prevent the dilution or enlargement of the Participant’s rights with respect to a Performance Award. Performance Measures may be one or more of the following, without limitation, as determined by the Committee:
(i). Earnings or Profitability Metrics:  including, but not limited to, sales revenue; revenue under collaborative agreements (including revenues from royalties and/or achievement of development milestones); earnings/loss (gross, operating, net, or adjusted); earnings/loss before interest and taxes (“EBIT”); earnings/loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”); profit margin; operating margin; income (gross, operating or net); expense levels or ratios;
16



(ii). Return Metrics:  including, but not limited to, return on investment, assets, equity or capital (total or invested);
(iii). Cash Flow Metrics:  including, but not limited to, operating cash flow; cash flow sufficient to achieve financial ratios or a specified cash balance; free cash flow; cash flow return on capital; net cash provided by operating activities; cash flow per share; working capital;
(iv). Liquidity Metrics:  including, but not limited to, debt reduction; extension of maturity dates of outstanding debt; debt leverage (debt to capital, net debt-to-capital, debt-to-EBITDA or other liquidity ratios) or access to capital; debt ratings; total or net debt; other similar measures of liquidity approved by the Committee;
(v). Stock Price and Equity Metrics:  including, but not limited to, return on stockholders’ equity; total shareholder return; revenue (gross, operating or net); revenue growth; stock price; stock price appreciation; market price of stock; market capitalization; earnings/loss per share (basic or diluted) (before or after taxes); price-to-earnings ratio; and
(vi). Strategic Metrics: (whether by the Company or one or more collaborators) including, but not limited to, product research and development; completion of an identified special project; clinical trials; regulatory filings or approvals; patent application or issuance; manufacturing or process development; sales or net sales; market share; market penetration; economic value added; customer service; customer satisfaction; inventory control; balance of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities; growth in assets; key hires; employee satisfaction; employee retention; business expansion; acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures or financing; legal compliance or safety and risk reduction.
(b). Performance Targets.  Performance Targets may include a minimum, maximum, target level and intermediate levels of performance, with the final value of a Performance Award determined under the applicable Performance Award Formula by the level attained during the applicable Performance Period. A Performance Target may be stated as an absolute value or as a value determined relative to a standard selected by the Committee.
9.5. Settlement of Performance Awards.
(a).Determination of Final Value.  As soon as practicable following the completion of the Performance Period applicable to a Performance Award, the Committee shall determine the extent to which the applicable Performance Goals have been attained and the resulting final value of the Award earned by the Participant and to be paid upon its settlement in accordance with the applicable Performance Award Formula.
(b).Discretionary Adjustment of Award Formula.  In its discretion, the Committee may, either at the time it grants a Performance Award to a Participant or at any time thereafter, provide for the positive or negative adjustment of the Performance Award Formula applicable to a Performance Award to reflect such Participant’s individual performance in his or her position with the Company or such other factors as the Committee may determine.
(c).Payment in Settlement of Performance Awards.  As soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination in accordance with Sections 9.5(a) and (b), payment shall be made to each eligible Participant (or such Participant’s legal representative or other person who acquired the right to receive such payment by reason of the Participant’s death) of the final value of the
17



Participant’s Performance Award. Payment of such amount shall be made in cash in a lump sum or, if expressly provided in the original grant of the Award in accordance with Section 409A in installments as set forth in the Award Agreement, shares of Stock (either fully vested or subject to vesting), or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee.
9.6. Voting Rights; Dividend Equivalent Rights and Distributions. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock represented by Performance Awards until the date of the issuance of such shares, if any (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No cash dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Stock subject to a Performance Award shall be paid to any Participant unless and until the Participant vests in such Performance Award. However, the Committee, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Performance Award that the Participant shall be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents with respect to the payment of cash dividends on Stock having a record date prior to the date on which the Performance Award is settled or forfeited. Such Dividend Equivalents, if any, shall be credited to the Participant in the form of additional whole Performance Shares or Performance Units as of the date of payment of such cash dividends on Stock. The number of additional Performance Shares or Performance Units (rounded to the nearest whole number) to be so credited shall be determined by dividing (a) the amount of cash dividends paid on such date with respect to the number of shares of Stock represented by the Performance Award previously credited to the Participant by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Dividend Equivalents shall be accumulated and paid to the extent that the Performance Award becomes nonforfeitable, as determined by the Committee. Settlement of Dividend Equivalents may be made in cash, shares of Stock, or a combination thereof as determined by the Committee, and shall be paid on the same terms as the underlying award as provided in Section 9.5. In the event of a dividend or distribution paid in shares of Stock or any other adjustment made upon a change in the capital structure of the Company as described in Section 4.2, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the Participant’s Performance Award so that it represents the right to receive upon settlement any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than normal cash dividends) to which the Participant would be entitled by reason of the shares of Stock issuable upon settlement of the Performance Award, and all such new, substituted or additional securities or other property shall be immediately subject to the same Performance Goals as are applicable to the Award.
9.7. Effect of Termination of Service. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the grant of a Performance Award and set forth in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Service terminates for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary (including the Participant’s death or disability), then the Participant shall forfeit the Performance Award as of the date of the Participant’s termination of Service.
9.8. Nontransferability of Performance Awards. Prior to settlement in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, no Performance Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to a Performance Award granted to a Participant hereunder shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.
10.Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock Unit Awards.
Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be evidenced by Award Agreements specifying the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to the Award, in such form as the Committee shall from time to time establish. No Restricted Stock Unit Award or purported Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Company unless evidenced by a fully executed Award Agreement. Award Agreements evidencing Restricted Stock Units may incorporate all or any of the terms of the Plan by reference and shall comply with and be subject to the following terms and conditions:
18



10.1. Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Restricted Stock Unit Awards may be granted upon such conditions as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, upon the attainment of one or more Performance Goals described in Section 9.4. If either the grant of a Restricted Stock Unit Award or the Vesting Conditions with respect to such Award is to be contingent upon the attainment of one or more Performance Goals, the Committee shall follow procedures substantially equivalent to those set forth in Sections 9.3 through 9.5(a).
10.2. Vesting. Restricted Stock Units may or may not be made subject to Vesting Conditions based upon the satisfaction of such Service requirements, conditions, restrictions or performance criteria, including, without limitation, Performance Goals as described in Section 9.4, as shall be established by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Award.
10.3. Voting Rights, Dividend Equivalent Rights and Distributions. Participants shall have no voting rights with respect to shares of Stock represented by Restricted Stock Units until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No cash dividends or distributions with respect to shares of Stock subject to Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to any Participant unless and until the Participant vests in such Restricted Stock Units. However, the Committee, in its discretion, may provide in the Award Agreement evidencing any Restricted Stock Unit Award that the Participant shall be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents with respect to the payment of cash dividends on Stock having a record date prior to the date on which Restricted Stock Units held by such Participant are settled. Such Dividend Equivalents, if any, shall be credited to the Participant in the form of additional whole Restricted Stock Units as of the date of payment of such cash dividends on Stock. The number of additional Restricted Stock Units (rounded to the nearest whole number) to be so credited, if any, shall be determined by dividing (a) the amount of cash dividends paid on such date with respect to the number of shares of Stock represented by the Restricted Stock Units previously credited to the Participant by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on such date. Such additional Restricted Stock Units, if any, shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be settled in the same manner and at the same time (or as soon thereafter as practicable) as the original Restricted Stock Unit Award. In the event of a dividend or distribution paid in shares of Stock or any other adjustment made upon a change in the capital structure of the Company as described in Section 4.2, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award so that it represents the right to receive upon settlement any and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property (other than normal cash dividends) to which the Participant would be entitled by reason of the shares of Stock issuable upon settlement of the Award, and all such new, substituted or additional securities or other property shall be immediately subject to the same Vesting Conditions as are applicable to the Award.
10.4. Effect of Termination of Service. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the grant of a Restricted Stock Unit Award and set forth in the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Service terminates for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary (including the Participant’s death or disability), then the Participant shall forfeit to the Company any Restricted Stock Units pursuant to the Award which remain subject to Vesting Conditions as of the date of the Participant’s termination of Service.
10.5. Settlement of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Company shall issue to a Participant on the date on which Restricted Stock Units subject to the Participant’s Restricted Stock Unit Award vest or on such other date determined by the Committee, in its discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement one (1) share of Stock (and/or any other new, substituted or additional securities or other property pursuant to an adjustment described in Section 11) for each Restricted Stock Unit then becoming vested or otherwise to be settled on such date, subject to the withholding of applicable taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if permitted by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement, the Participant may elect in accordance with terms
19



specified in the Award Agreement and consistent with the requirements of Section 409A to defer receipt of all or any portion of the shares of Stock or other property otherwise issuable to the Participant pursuant to this Section.
10.6. Nontransferability of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. Prior to the issuance of shares of Stock in settlement of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, the Award shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award granted to a Participant hereunder shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.
11.Effect of Change in Control and Other Events on Awards.
11.1. Change in Control Transactions. In the event of any transaction resulting in a Change in Control of the Company, outstanding Awards that are payable in or convertible into Stock under the Plan will terminate upon the effective time of such Change in Control unless provision is made by the Company in connection with the transaction for the continuation or assumption of such Awards by, or for the substitution of equivalent awards of, the surviving or successor entity or a parent thereof. All determinations as to whether any, some or all outstanding Awards and, if any, which such Awards, will be continued, assumed or substituted in a transaction and whether any such substitution is for equivalent awards shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee, and such continuation, assumption, or substitution may be effectuated without the consent of the holder of any such outstanding Award. In the event of such termination, the holders of Awards that will be terminated upon the effective time of the Change in Control will be permitted, immediately before the Change in Control, to exercise or convert all portions of such Awards under the Plan that are then exercisable or convertible or which become exercisable or convertible upon or prior to the effective time of the Change in Control. In the event of any transaction resulting in a Change in Control of the Company prior to the end of a Performance Period for any Performance Award, the Committee may determine that one or more Participants who were awarded a Performance Award for the Performance Period in which such Change in Control of the Company occurs may receive payment of such Performance Award for the Performance Period, in such amount and at such time as the Committee determines; provided, however, that, to the extent such Performance Award constitutes deferred compensation under Section 409A, any such payment with respect to the Performance Award shall be made in compliance with Section 409A. In addition, the Committee shall have the right to provide that in the event of a Change in Control, Options and SARs outstanding as of the date of the Change in Control shall be cancelled and terminated without payment if the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the date of the Change in Control is less than the per share Option exercise price or SAR grant price.
11.2. Unusual or Nonrecurring Events. The Committee is authorized to make, in its discretion and without the consent of holders of Awards, adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, or the financial statements of the Company, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Committee determines that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan.
12.Compliance with Securities Law.
The grant of Awards and the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to any Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state and foreign law with respect to such securities and the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, no Award may be exercised or shares issued pursuant to an Award unless (a) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of such exercise or issuance be in effect
20



with respect to the shares issuable pursuant to the Award or (b) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable pursuant to the Award may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares hereunder shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to issuance of any Stock, the Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
13.Tax Withholding.
13.1. Tax Withholding in General. The Company shall have the right to deduct from any and all payments made under the Plan, or to require the Participant, through payroll withholding, cash payment or otherwise, including by means of a Cashless Exercise or net exercise of an Option, or net settlement of other types of Awards, to make adequate provision for, the federal, state, local and foreign taxes, if any, required by law to be withheld by the Participating Company Group with respect to an Award or the shares acquired pursuant thereto. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock, to release shares of Stock from an escrow established pursuant to an Award Agreement, or to make any payment in cash under the Plan until the Participating Company Group’s tax withholding obligations have been satisfied by the Participant.
13.2. Withholding in Shares. The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct from the shares of Stock issuable to a Participant upon the exercise or settlement of an Award, or to accept from the Participant the tender of, a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company, equal to all or any part of the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group. The Fair Market Value of any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy any such tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates, or such other rate that will not trigger an adverse accounting consequence or cost.
14.Amendment or Termination of Plan.
The Board or the Committee may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. However, without the approval of the Company’s stockholders, there shall be (a) no increase in the maximum aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of the provisions of Section 4.2), (b) no change in the class of persons eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options, the prohibition on repricing and reloading in Section 3.6, the Award limits in Section 5.4, the minimum exercise price, and maximum term, and (c) no other amendment of the Plan that would require approval of the Company’s stockholders under any applicable law, regulation or rule. No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan shall affect any then outstanding Award unless expressly provided by the Board or the Committee. In any event, no amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan may adversely affect any then outstanding Award without the consent of the Participant unless necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation or rule.
15.Miscellaneous Provisions.
15.1. Repurchase Rights. Shares issued under the Plan may be subject to one or more repurchase options, or other conditions and restrictions as determined by the Committee in its discretion at the time the Award is granted. The Company shall have the right to assign at any time any repurchase right it may
21



have, whether or not such right is then exercisable, to one or more persons as may be selected by the Company. Upon request by the Company, each Participant shall execute any agreement evidencing such transfer restrictions prior to the receipt of shares of Stock hereunder and shall promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares of Stock acquired hereunder for the placement on such certificates of appropriate legends evidencing any such transfer restrictions.
15.2. Rights as Employee, Consultant or Director. No person, even though eligible pursuant to Section 5, shall have a right to be selected as a Participant, or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a Participant. Nothing in the Plan or any Award granted under the Plan shall confer on any Participant a right to remain an Employee, Consultant or Director or interfere with or limit in any way any right of a Participating Company to terminate the Participant’s Service at any time. To the extent that an Employee of a Participating Company other than the Company receives an Award under the Plan, that Award shall in no event be understood or interpreted to mean that the Company is the Employee’s employer or that the Employee has an employment relationship with the Company.
15.3. Rights as a Stockholder. A Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by an Award until the date of the issuance of such shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 4.2 or another provision of the Plan.
15.4. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise or settlement of any Award.
15.5. Severability. If any one or more of the provisions (or any part thereof) of this Plan shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be modified so as to make it valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions (or any part thereof) of the Plan shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
15.6. Beneficiary Designation. Subject to local laws and procedures, each Participant may file with the Company a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any benefit under the Plan to which the Participant is entitled in the event of such Participant’s death before he or she receives any or all of such benefit. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form prescribed by the Company, and will be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. If a married Participant designates a beneficiary other than the Participant’s spouse, the effectiveness of such designation may be subject to the consent of the Participant’s spouse, if required by applicable law or the Company. If a Participant dies without an effective designation of a beneficiary who is living at the time of the Participant’s death, the Company will pay any remaining unpaid benefits to the Participant’s legal representative.
15.7. Unfunded Obligation. Participants shall have the status of general unsecured creditors of the Company. Any amounts payable to Participants pursuant to the Plan shall be unfunded and unsecured obligations for all purposes, including, without limitation, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. No Participating Company shall be required to segregate any monies from its general funds, or to create any trusts, or establish any special accounts with respect to such obligations. The Company shall retain at all times beneficial ownership of any investments, including trust investments, which the Company may make to fulfill its payment obligations hereunder. Any investments or the creation or maintenance of any trust or any Participant account shall not create or constitute a trust or fiduciary relationship between the Committee or any Participating Company and a Participant, or otherwise create any vested or beneficial interest in any Participant or
22



the Participant’s creditors in any assets of any Participating Company. The Participants shall have no claim against any Participating Company for any changes in the value of any assets which may be invested or reinvested by the Company with respect to the Plan. Each Participating Company shall be responsible for making benefit payments pursuant to the Plan on behalf of its Participants or for reimbursing the Company for the cost of such payments, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. In the event the respective Participating Company fails to make such payment or reimbursement, a Participant’s (or other individual’s) sole recourse shall be against the respective Participating Company, and not against the Company. A Participant’s acceptance of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall constitute agreement with this provision.
15.8. Compliance with Section 409A. The Plan and all Awards granted hereunder are intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Section 409A. The Plan and all Awards granted under the Plan shall be administered, interpreted, and construed in a manner consistent with Section 409A (including applicable regulations or other administrative guidance thereunder, as determined by the Committee in good faith) to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxes under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. It is intended that any election, payment or benefit which is made or provided pursuant to or in connection with any Award that may result in deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A shall comply in all respects with the applicable requirements of Section 409A. In connection with effecting such compliance with Section 409A, the following shall apply:
(a).Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan on account of, and during the six (6) month period immediately following, the Participant's termination of Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of the Participant's separation from service (or the Participant's death, if earlier).
(b).Neither any Participant nor the Company shall take any action to accelerate or delay the payment of any amount or benefits under an Award in any manner which would not be in compliance with Section 409A.
(c).Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or any Award Agreement, to the extent that any amount constituting deferred compensation subject to Section 409A would become payable under the Plan by reason of a Change in Control, such amount shall become payable only if the event constituting the Change in Control would also constitute a change in ownership or effective control of the Company or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company within the meaning of Section 409A. Any Award which constitutes deferred compensation subject to Section 409A and which would vest and otherwise become payable upon a Change in Control as a result of the failure of the Acquiror to assume, continue or substitute for such Award in accordance with Section 11.1 shall vest to the extent provided by such Award but shall be converted automatically at the effective time of such Change in Control into a right to receive, in cash on the date or dates such award would have been settled in accordance with its then existing settlement schedule (to the extent necessary in order to avoid the imposition of excise or penalty or other similar taxes under Section 409A), an amount or amounts equal in the aggregate to the intrinsic value of the Award at the time of the Change in Control.
(d).Should any provision of the Plan, any Award Agreement, or any other agreement or arrangement contemplated by the Plan be found not to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, the provisions of Section 409A, such provision shall be modified and given effect (retroactively if necessary), in the sole discretion of the Committee, and without the consent of the holder of the Award, in
23



such manner as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate to comply with, or to effectuate an exemption from, Section 409A.
(e).Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any tax or penalty on any Participant under Section 409A of the Code and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any Participant for such tax or penalty.
15.9. Forfeiture; Recoupment. Any Awards granted hereunder shall be subject to the Company’s current Incentive Compensation Recoupment Policy, as it may be amended from time to time. To the extent that forfeiture, claw-back or similar provisions applicable to Awards are required by applicable law, listing standards and/or additional policies adopted by the Company, Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to such provisions. 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 reacquisition right in respect of previously acquired shares or other cash or property upon the occurrence of “cause.” No recovery of compensation under such a clawback policy will be an event giving rise to a right to voluntary terminate employment upon a “resignation for good reason,” or for a “constructive termination” or any similar term under any plan of or agreement with the Company.
An Award Agreement may provide that if a Participant, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Subsidiary or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Subsidiary, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, then (i) any outstanding, vested or unvested, earned or unearned portion of an Award may, at the Committee’s discretion, be canceled and (ii) the Committee, in its discretion, may require the Participant or other person to whom any payment has been made or shares of Stock or other property have been transferred in connection with the Award to forfeit and pay over to the Company, on demand, all or any portion of the gain (whether or not taxable) realized upon the exercise of any Option or SAR and the value realized (whether or not taxable) on the vesting or payment of any other Award during the time period specified in the Award Agreement.
15.10. Delivery of Title to Shares. Subject to any governing rules or regulations, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued the shares of Stock acquired pursuant to an Award and shall deliver such shares to or for the benefit of the Participant by means of one or more of the following: (a) by delivering to the Participant evidence of book entry shares of Stock credited to the account of the Participant, (b) by depositing such shares of Stock for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship, or (c) by delivering such shares of Stock to the Participant in certificate form.
15.11. Retirement and Welfare Plans. Neither Awards made under this Plan nor shares of Stock or cash paid pursuant to such Awards may be included as “compensation” for purposes of computing the benefits payable to any Participant under any Participating Company’s retirement plans (both qualified and non-qualified) or welfare benefit plans unless such other plan expressly provides that such compensation shall be taken into account in computing a Participant’s benefit. In addition, unless a written employment agreement or other service agreement specifically references Awards, a general reference to “benefits” or a similar term in such agreement shall not be deemed to refer to Awards granted hereunder.
15.12. No Constraint on Corporate Action. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to: (a) limit, impair, or otherwise affect the Company’s or another Participating Company’s right or power to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure, or to merge or consolidate, or dissolve, liquidate, sell, or transfer all or any part of its business or assets; or (b) limit the right or
24



power of the Company or another Participating Company to take any action which such entity deems to be necessary or appropriate.
15.13. Choice of Law. Except to the extent governed by applicable federal law, the validity, interpretation, construction and performance of the Plan and each Award Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law rules.

1.2    Construction. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Option Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
2.    Tax Consequences.
2.1    Tax Status of Option. This Option is intended to have the tax status designated in the Grant Notice.
(a)    Incentive Stock Option. If the Grant Notice so designates, this Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code up to the amount of the applicable statutory limit, but the Company does not represent or warrant that this Option qualifies as such. The Participant should consult with the Participant’s own tax advisor regarding the tax effects of this Option and the requirements necessary to obtain favorable income tax treatment under Section 422 of the Code, including, but not limited to, holding period requirements. (NOTE TO PARTICIPANT: If the Option is exercised more than three (3) months after the date on which you cease to be an Employee (other than by reason of your death or permanent and total disability as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), the Option will be treated as a Nonstatutory Stock Option and not as an Incentive Stock Option to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code.)
(b)    Nonstatutory Stock Option. If the Grant Notice so designates, this Option is intended to be a Nonstatutory Stock Option and shall not be treated as an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422(b) of the Code.
2.2    ISO Fair Market Value Limitation. If the Grant Notice designates this Option as an Incentive Stock Option, then to the extent that the Option (together with all

    
2
2021 Stock Plan


Incentive Stock Options granted to the Participant under all stock option plans of the Participating Company Group, including the Plan) becomes exercisable for the first time during any calendar year for shares having a Fair Market Value greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), the portion of such Options which exceeds such amount will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 2.2, Options designated as Incentive Stock Options are taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of Stock is determined as of the time the Option with respect to such Stock is granted. If the Code is amended to provide for a different limitation from that set forth in this Section 2.2, such different limitation shall be deemed incorporated herein effective as of the date required or permitted by such amendment to the Code. If the Option is treated as an Incentive Stock Option in part and as a Nonstatutory Stock Option in part by reason of the limitation set forth in this Section 2.2, the Participant may designate which portion of such Option the Participant is exercising. In the absence of such designation, the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised the Incentive Stock Option portion of the Option first. Separate certificates representing each such portion shall be issued upon the exercise of the Option. (NOTE TO PARTICIPANT: If the aggregate Exercise Price of the Option (that is, the Exercise Price per Share multiplied by the Number of Option Shares) plus the aggregate exercise price of any other Incentive Stock Options you hold (whether granted pursuant to the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Participating Company Group) is greater than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), you should contact the Chief Financial Officer of the Company to ascertain whether the entire Option qualifies as an Incentive Stock Option.)
3.    Administration.
All questions of interpretation concerning this Option Agreement shall be determined by the Committee. All determinations by the Committee shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in the Option. Any Officer shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Company with respect to any matter, right, obligation, or election which is the responsibility of or which is allocated to the Company herein, provided the Officer has been delegated such authority by the Committee with respect to such matter, right, obligation, or election.
4.    Exercise of the Option.
4.1    Right to Exercise. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Option shall be exercisable on and after the Initial Vesting Date and prior to the termination of the Option (as provided in Section 6) in an amount not to exceed the number of Vested Shares less the number of shares previously acquired upon exercise of the Option. In no event shall the Option be exercisable for more shares than the Number of Option Shares, as adjusted pursuant to Section 9.
4.2    Method of Exercise. Exercise of the Option shall be by means of electronic or written notice (the Exercise Notice) in a form authorized by the Company. An electronic Exercise Notice must be digitally signed or authenticated by the Participant in such manner as required by the notice and transmitted to the Company or an authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company). In the event that the Participant is not authorized or is unable to provide an electronic Exercise Notice, the Option shall be exercised by a written Exercise Notice addressed to the Company, which shall be

    
3
2021 Stock Plan


signed by the Participant and delivered in person, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, by confirmed facsimile transmission, or by such other means as the Company may permit, to the Company, or an authorized representative of the Company (including a third-party administrator designated by the Company). Each Exercise Notice, whether electronic or written, must state the Participant’s election to exercise the Option, the number of whole shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised and such other representations and agreements as to the Participant’s investment intent with respect to such shares as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this Option Agreement. Further, each Exercise Notice must be received by the Company prior to the termination of the Option as set forth in Section 6 and must be accompanied by full payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock being purchased. The Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such electronic or written Exercise Notice and the aggregate Exercise Price.
4.3    Payment of Exercise Price.
(a)    Forms of Consideration Authorized. Except as otherwise provided below, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the number of shares of Stock for which the Option is being exercised shall be made (i) in cash or by check or cash equivalent, (ii) if permitted by the Company, by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of whole shares of Stock owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value not less than the aggregate Exercise Price, (iii) by means of a Cashless Exercise, as defined in Section 4.3(b), (iv) by any other means authorized by the Company in its discretion, or (v) by any combination of the foregoing.
(b)    Limitations on Forms of Consideration.
(i)    Tender of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock to the extent such tender or attestation would constitute a violation of the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s Stock. If required by the Company, the Option may not be exercised by tender to the Company, or attestation to the ownership, of shares of Stock unless such shares either have been owned by the Participant for such minimum period, if any, required by the Company (and not used for another Option exercise by attestation during such period) or were not acquired, directly or indirectly, from the Company.
(ii)    Cashless Exercise. A Cashless Exercise means the delivery of a properly executed notice together with irrevocable instructions to a broker in a form acceptable to the Company providing for the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of a sale or loan with respect to some or all of the shares of Stock acquired upon the exercise of the Option pursuant to a program or procedure approved by the Company (including, without limitation, through an exercise complying with the provisions of Regulation T as promulgated from time to time by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). The Company reserves, at any and all times, the right, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, to establish, decline to approve or terminate any such program or procedure, including with respect to the Participant notwithstanding that such program or procedures may be available to others.

2021 Stock Plan


4.4    Tax Withholding.
(a)    Tax Withholding in General. At the time the Option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, the Participant hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for (including by means of a Cashless Exercise to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group, if any, which arise in connection with the Option. The Company shall have no obligation to deliver shares of Stock until the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group have been satisfied by the Participant.
(b)    Withholding in Shares. The Company shall have the right, but not the obligation, to deduct from the shares of Stock issuable to a Participant upon the exercise of an Option, or to accept from the Participant the tender of, a number of whole shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value, as determined by the Company, equal to all or any part of the tax withholding obligations of the Participating Company Group. The Fair Market Value of any shares of Stock withheld or tendered to satisfy any such tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
4.5    Beneficial Ownership of Shares; Certificate Registration. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice any or all shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the exercise of the Option. Except as provided by the preceding sentence, a certificate for the shares as to which the Option is exercised shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.
4.6    Restrictions on Grant of the Option and Issuance of Shares. The grant of the Option and the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. The Option may not be exercised if the issuance of shares of Stock upon exercise would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. In addition, the Option may not be exercised unless (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act shall at the time of exercise of the Option be in effect with respect to the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option or (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the shares issuable upon exercise of the Option may be issued in accordance with the terms of an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. THE PARTICIPANT IS CAUTIONED THAT THE OPTION MAY NOT BE EXERCISED UNLESS THE FOREGOING CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED. ACCORDINGLY, THE PARTICIPANT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXERCISE THE OPTION WHEN DESIRED EVEN THOUGH THE OPTION IS VESTED. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any shares subject to the Option shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the exercise of the Option, the

    
5
2021 Stock Plan


Company may require the Participant to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
4.7    Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of the Option.
5.    Nontransferability of the Option.
During the lifetime of the Participant, the Option shall be exercisable only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The Option shall not be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Following the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent provided in Section 7, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Participant’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.
6.    Termination of the Option.
The Option shall terminate and may no longer be exercised after the first to occur of (a) the close of business on the Option Expiration Date, (b) the close of business on the last date for exercising the Option following termination of the Participant’s Service as described in Section 7, or (c) a Change in Control to the extent provided in Section 8.
7.    Effect of Termination of Service.
7.1    Option Exercisability. Except as provided below, the Option shall terminate immediately upon the Participant’s termination of Service to the extent that it is then unvested and shall be exercisable after the Participant’s termination of Service to the extent it is then vested only during the applicable time period as determined below and thereafter shall terminate.
(a)    Disability. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Disability of the Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable for Vested Shares on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant (or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative) at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
(b)    Death. If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the death of the Participant, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable for Vested Shares on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant’s legal representative or other person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by reason of the Participant’s death at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date. The Participant’s Service shall be deemed to have terminated on account of death if the Participant dies within three (3) months after the Participant’s termination of Service.

    
6
2021 Stock Plan


(c)    Qualifying Termination. If the Participant’s Service terminates as a result of a Qualifying Termination, then the Option shall immediately, effective as of the date on which the Participant’s Service terminates, fully accelerate and become 100% vested and fully exercisable as to any yet unexercised shares of Stock and/or cease to be subject to forfeiture, as applicable.
(d)    Other Termination of Service. If the Participant’s Service terminates for any reason, except Disability, death, or a Qualifying Termination, the Option, to the extent unexercised and exercisable for Vested Shares by the Participant on the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, may be exercised by the Participant at any time prior to the expiration of three (3) months after the date on which the Participant’s Service terminated, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
7.2    Extension if Exercise Prevented by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exercise of the Option within the applicable time periods set forth in Section 7.1 is prevented by the provisions of Section 4.6, the Option shall remain exercisable until three (3) months after the date the Participant is notified by the Company that the Option is exercisable, but in any event no later than the Option Expiration Date.
8.    Effect of Change in Control.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a Change in Control, the Board shall determine in its sole discretion, and shall, to the extent applicable, ensure that the definitive documentation setting forth the terms of the Change in Control provides, that either: (a) the Company shall continue to maintain in effect, or the Company’s successor shall assume, the Plan, this Option Agreement and the Option outstanding hereunder (together with all other outstanding equity incentive plans, award agreements and awards of the Company), and such Option shall continue to remain outstanding, with the number and kind of Shares or other equity subject to the Option adjusted to reflect the Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and otherwise in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of the Option (including, without limitation, with respect to vesting, exercise, forfeiture, repurchase and restrictive covenants) as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; or (b) the Option shall be cancelled immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Change in Control in exchange for a cash payment to you in respect thereof in an amount calculated based on the value of the Shares subject to the Option at the time of such Change in Control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, in all cases, assuming the Option was fully vested and exercisable and/or not subject to forfeiture, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt: In respect of any Share subject to the Option, you shall be eligible to receive an amount in cash equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the value of the per-Share consideration received by sellers of the class of such Shares generally in the Change in Control over (ii) the exercise price applicable to such Share. Payments described in this Section 8 shall be made on, or as soon as administratively practicable following, the Change in Control.

9.    Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure.
Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event of any change in the Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, whether

    
7
2021 Stock Plan


through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of the Company, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the stockholders of the Company in a form other than Stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of shares of Stock, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number, Exercise Price per Share and kind of shares subject to the Option, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the Participant’s rights under the Option. For purposes of the foregoing, conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as “effected without receipt of consideration by the Company.” If a majority of the shares which are of the same class as the shares that are subject to the Option are exchanged for, converted into, or otherwise become (whether or not pursuant to an Ownership Change Event) shares of another corporation (the New Shares”), the Committee may unilaterally amend the Option to provide that such Option is exercisable for New Shares, subject to Section 8 hereof in connection with a Change in Control. In the event of any such amendment, the number of shares subject to, and the exercise price per share of, the Option shall be adjusted in a fair and equitable manner as determined by the Committee, in its discretion. Any fractional share resulting from an adjustment pursuant to this Section shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and in no event may the Exercise Price per Share be decreased to an amount less than the par value, if any, of the Stock subject to the Option. The Committee in its sole discretion, may also make such adjustments in the terms of the Option to reflect, or related to, such changes in the capital structure of the Company or distributions as it deems appropriate. The adjustments determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section shall be final, binding and conclusive.
10.    Rights as a Stockholder, Director, Employee or Consultant.
The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares covered by the Option until the date of the issuance of the shares for which the Option has been exercised (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the shares are issued, except as provided in Section 9. If the Participant is an Employee, the Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between a Participating Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified term. Nothing in this Option Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Service of a Participating Company or interfere in any way with any right of the Participating Company Group to terminate the Participant’s Service as a Director, an Employee or Consultant, as the case may be, at any time.
11.    Notice of Sales Upon Disqualifying Disposition.
The Participant shall dispose of the shares acquired pursuant to the Option only in accordance with the provisions of this Option Agreement. In addition, if the Grant Notice designates this Option as an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant shall (a) promptly notify the Chief Financial Officer of the Company if the Participant disposes of any of the shares acquired pursuant to the Option within one (1) year after the date the Participant exercises all or part of the Option or within two (2) years after the Date of Grant and (b) provide the Company with a

    
8
2021 Stock Plan


description of the circumstances of such disposition. Until such time as the Participant disposes of such shares in a manner consistent with the provisions of this Option Agreement, unless otherwise expressly authorized by the Company, the Participant shall hold all shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the Participant’s name (and not in the name of any nominee) for the one-year period immediately after the exercise of the Option and the two-year period immediately after Date of Grant. At any time during the one-year or two-year periods set forth above, the Company may place a legend on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option requesting the transfer agent for the Company’s Stock to notify the Company of any such transfers. The obligation of the Participant to notify the Company of any such transfer shall continue notwithstanding that a legend has been placed on the certificate pursuant to the preceding sentence.
12.    Legends.
The Company may at any time place legends referencing any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law restrictions on all certificates representing shares of Stock subject to the provisions of this Option Agreement. The Participant shall, at the request of the Company, promptly present to the Company any and all certificates representing shares acquired pursuant to the Option in the possession of the Participant in order to carry out the provisions of this Section. Unless otherwise specified by the Company, legends placed on such certificates may include, but shall not be limited to, the following:
“THE SHARES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED BY THE CORPORATION TO THE REGISTERED HOLDER UPON EXERCISE OF AN INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 422 OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED (“ISO). IN ORDER TO OBTAIN THE PREFERENTIAL TAX TREATMENT AFFORDED TO ISOs, THE SHARES SHOULD NOT BE TRANSFERRED PRIOR TO [INSERT DISQUALIFYING DISPOSITION DATE HERE]. SHOULD THE REGISTERED HOLDER ELECT TO TRANSFER ANY OF THE SHARES PRIOR TO THIS DATE AND FOREGO ISO TAX TREATMENT, THE TRANSFER AGENT FOR THE SHARES SHALL NOTIFY THE CORPORATION IMMEDIATELY. THE REGISTERED HOLDER SHALL HOLD ALL SHARES PURCHASED UNDER THE INCENTIVE STOCK OPTION IN THE REGISTERED HOLDER’S NAME (AND NOT IN THE NAME OF ANY NOMINEE) PRIOR TO THIS DATE OR UNTIL TRANSFERRED AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.”

13.    Miscellaneous Provisions.
13.1    Termination or Amendment. The Committee may terminate or amend the Plan or the Option at any time; provided, however, that except as provided in Section 8 in connection with a Change in Control, no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Option or any unexercised portion hereof without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with any applicable law or government regulation. No amendment or addition to this Option Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

2021 Stock Plan

Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
Restricted Stock Units Agreement
under the
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
2021 Stock Plan
1.    Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Award Agreement, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Award Agreement, the Notice, or the Plan.
2.    Vesting. All of the Restricted Stock Units are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date. So long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the applicable date upon which vesting is scheduled to occur, the Restricted Stock Units will become vested and nonforfeitable in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice. Except for the circumstances, if any, described in the Notice or herein, none of the Restricted Stock Units will become vested and nonforfeitable after your Service ceases.
    3.    Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Notice, if your Service with the Company or its successor ceases for any reason, all Restricted Stock Units that are not then vested and nonforfeitable will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if your Service terminates as a result of a Qualifying Termination, then all outstanding Restricted Stock Units that are not then vested and nonforfeitable shall, effective as of the date on which your Service terminates, become 100% vested and nonforfeitable.
4.    Restrictions on Transfer. Neither this Award Agreement nor any of the Restricted Stock Units may be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and the Restricted Stock Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. All rights with respect to this Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative.
5.    Dividend Equivalent Payments. On each dividend payment date for each cash dividend (regular or extraordinary) on the Stock, the Company will credit your equity award account with dividend equivalents in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units. All such additional Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the same vesting requirements applicable to the Restricted Stock Units in respect of which they were credited and shall be settled in accordance with, and at the time of, settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units to which they are related. The number of Restricted Stock Units to be credited shall equal the quotient, rounded to such fraction as determined by the Committee, calculated by dividing (a) by (b), where “(a)” is the product of (i) the cash dividend payable per share of Stock, multiplied by (ii) the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to your account as of the record date, and “(b)” is the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. If your vested
1
2021 Stock Plan


Restricted Stock Units have been settled after the record date but prior to the dividend payment date, any Restricted Stock Units that would be credited pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be settled on or as soon as practicable after the dividend payment date. Nothing herein shall preclude the Committee from exercising its discretion under the Plan to determine whether to eliminate fractional units or credit fractional units to accounts, and the manner in which fractional units will be credited.
6.    Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.
(a)    Manner of Settlement. You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the consideration for which shall be services rendered to the Company or for its benefit. The Company will issue to you, in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units and subject to the provisions of Section 7 below, the number of whole shares of Stock that equals the number of whole Restricted Stock Units that become vested, and such vested Restricted Stock Units will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon such issuance of the shares. Upon issuance of such shares, the Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such shares on your behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.
(b)    Timing of Settlement. Your Restricted Stock Units will be settled by the Company, via the issuance of Stock as described herein, on the date that the Restricted Stock Units become vested and nonforfeitable. However, if a scheduled issuance date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, such issuance date shall instead fall on the next following day that the principal executive offices of the Company are open for business. In all cases, the issuance and delivery of shares under this Award Agreement is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such a manner. If you die after vesting but before settlement, your Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to your estate.
7.    Tax Withholding.
(a)    On or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares subject to your Restricted Stock Units, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you may satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to your Restricted Stock Units by any of the following means, which you must elect in advance by making an appropriate election via the account established under your name with E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company (the “Brokerage Account”), or by such other method acceptable to the Committee if you do not have a Brokerage Account, at such time or times specified by the Committee: (i) tendering a cash payment that covers your tax withholding obligation by depositing such cash payment into your Brokerage Account or providing it directly to the Company on or before the date your Restricted Stock Units vest; or (ii) authorizing a net share settlement transaction under which the Company will withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to you in connection with your Restricted Stock Units a number of shares the Fair Market Value of which is sufficient to cover the tax withholding obligation and issuing to you the remaining shares in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units on the date your Restricted
2
2021 Stock Plan


Stock Units vest. The Committee shall have discretion to allow any other method of satisfying tax withholding obligations as it may determine to be adequate.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company will satisfy the tax withholding obligations relating to your Restricted Stock Units through a net share settlement transaction (as described above) on the date your Restricted Stock Units vest in the following circumstances: (i) you do not make an election in a form acceptable to the Committee on or prior to the date your Restricted Stock Units vest regarding the method of satisfaction of your tax withholding obligation; or (ii) you timely elect to satisfy your tax withholding obligation via tendering a cash payment as provided above, but as of the date your Restricted Stock Units vest there are insufficient funds in your Brokerage Account or received by the Company to cover the tax withholding obligation.
(c)    Any shares of Stock withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
(d)    Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Stock. In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.
8.    Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.
(a)    Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Stock, the number of outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event; provided, however, that any fractional Restricted Stock Units resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated. Adjustments under this paragraph will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
(b)    Treatment on Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a Change in Control, the Board shall determine in its sole discretion, and shall, to the extent applicable, ensure that the definitive documentation setting forth the terms of the Change in Control provides, that either:

    (i)    the Company shall continue to maintain in effect, or the Company’s successor shall assume, the Plan, this Award Agreement and all Restricted Stock Units outstanding hereunder (together with all other outstanding equity incentive plans, award agreements and awards of the Company), and such Restricted Stock Units shall continue to remain outstanding, with the number and kind of shares or units associated with such Restricted Stock Units adjusted to reflect the Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and otherwise in accordance with and subject to their terms and conditions (including, without limitation, with respect to vesting, exercise, forfeiture, repurchase and restrictive covenants) as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; or

    (ii)    the Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Change in Control in exchange for a cash
3
2021 Stock Plan


payment to you in respect thereof in an amount calculated based on the value of the Restricted Stock Units at the time of such Change in Control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, in all cases, assuming the Award was fully vested and exercisable and/or not subject to forfeiture, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt: In respect of any outstanding Restricted Stock Unit, you shall be eligible to receive an amount in cash equal to the per-share consideration received by sellers of the class of shares subject to such Restricted Stock Unit generally in the Change in Control.

Payments described in this Section 8(b) shall be made on, or as soon as administratively practicable following, the Change in Control.
9.    NonGuarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall alter your employment status or other service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any nonvested and forfeitable Restricted Stock Units or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.
10.    Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock that may be issued in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units until such shares of Stock have been issued to you. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 5 of this Award Agreement with respect to dividend equivalent payments or as otherwise permitted under the Plan.
11.    The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Restricted Stock Units shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
12.    Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any
4
2021 Stock Plan


applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
13.    Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Award Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company, or in the case of notices delivered to the Company by you, addressed to the Committee, care of the Company for the attention of its Secretary at its principal executive office or, in either case, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan or accept this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.    Entire Agreement. This Award Agreement, together with the relevant Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Award Agreement with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.
15.    Amendment. This Award Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that this Award Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the Restricted Stock Units as determined in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Plan or in a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.
16.    409A Savings Clause. This Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). In administering this Award Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Award Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the Restricted Stock Units fail to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if you are a “Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended to
5
2021 Stock Plan


constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the payment of dividend equivalents under Section 5 of this Award Agreement shall be construed as earnings and the time and form of payment of such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the time and form of payment of the underlying Restricted Stock Units.
17.    [Reserved.]
18.    No Obligation to Minimize Taxes. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences to you of this award of Restricted Stock Units and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection with this award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this award and by signing the Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.
19.    Conformity with Plan. This Award Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Award Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Award Agreement or any matters as to which this Award Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available on the Company’s intranet or upon written request to the Committee.
20.    No Funding. This Award Agreement constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to issue shares of Stock in the future in accordance with its terms. You have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company as a result of receiving the grant of Restricted Stock Units.
21.    Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.
22.    Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of this Award Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Committee relating to this Award Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Award Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. Any suit with respect hereto will be brought in the federal or state courts in the district which includes the city or town in which the Company’s principal executive office is located, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.
23.    Headings. The headings in this Award Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Award Agreement.
24.    Electronic Delivery of Documents. By your signing the Notice, you (i) consent to the electronic delivery of this Award Agreement, all information with respect to the Plan and the Restricted Stock Units, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s

25.    No Future Entitlement. By your signing the Notice, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) the grant of a restricted stock unit award is a one-time benefit which does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or compensation in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (ii) all determinations with respect to any such future grants and the terms thereof will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; (iii) the value of the restricted stock units is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; (iv) the value of the restricted stock units is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any termination, severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments or similar payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits; (v) the vesting of the restricted stock units ceases upon termination of Service with the Company or transfer of employment from the Company, or other cessation of eligibility for any reason, except as may otherwise be explicitly provided in this Award Agreement; (vi) the Company does not guarantee any future value of the restricted stock units; and (vii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if the restricted stock units decrease or do not increase in value and you irrevocably release the Company from any such claim that does arise.
26.    Personal Data. For purposes of the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of any acquisition, equity or debt financing, joint venture, merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets or other similar corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”), you consent, by execution of the Notice, to the collection, receipt, use, retention and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors or any potential party to a potential Corporate Transaction. You understand that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, employee number, employment status, social security number, tax identification number, date of birth, nationality, job and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes and shares awarded, cancelled, vested and unvested) may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of a Corporate Transaction and you expressly authorize such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data by the recipient(s). You understand that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the restricted stock units or effect a Corporate Transaction. You understand that you may, at any time, request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the personal data, view data, request additional information about the storage and processing of data, require any necessary amendments to data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by

2021 Stock Plan


contacting in writing the Company’s Secretary. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to accept a restricted stock unit award.

Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Notice, if your Service with the Company or its successor ceases for any reason, all Restricted Stock Units that are not then vested and nonforfeitable will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if your Service terminates as a result of a Qualifying Termination, then all outstanding Restricted Stock Units that are not then vested and nonforfeitable shall, effective as of the date on which your Service terminates, become 100% vested and nonforfeitable.
4.    Restrictions on Transfer. Neither this Award Agreement nor any of the Restricted Stock Units may be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and the Restricted Stock Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. All rights with respect to this Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative.
5.    Dividend Equivalent Payments. On each dividend payment date for each cash dividend (regular or extraordinary) on the Stock, the Company will credit your equity award account with dividend equivalents in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units. All such additional Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the same vesting requirements applicable to the Restricted Stock Units in respect of which they were credited and shall be settled in accordance with, and at the time of, settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units to which they are related. The number of Restricted Stock Units to be credited shall equal the quotient, rounded to such fraction as determined by the Committee, calculated by dividing (a) by (b), where “(a)” is the product of (i) the cash dividend payable per share of Stock, multiplied by (ii) the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to your account as of the record date, and “(b)” is the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. If your vested
1
2021 Stock Plan


Restricted Stock Units have been settled after the record date but prior to the dividend payment date, any Restricted Stock Units that would be credited pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be settled on or as soon as practicable after the dividend payment date. Nothing herein shall preclude the Committee from exercising its discretion under the Plan to determine whether to eliminate fractional units or credit fractional units to accounts, and the manner in which fractional units will be credited.
6.    Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.
(a)    Manner of Settlement. You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the consideration for which shall be services rendered to the Company or for its benefit. The Company will issue to you, in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units and subject to the provisions of Section 7 below, the number of whole shares of Stock that equals the number of whole Restricted Stock Units that become vested, and such vested Restricted Stock Units will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon such issuance of the shares. Upon issuance of such shares, the Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such shares on your behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.
(b)    Timing of Settlement. Your Restricted Stock Units will be settled by the Company, via the issuance of Stock as described herein, on the date that the Restricted Stock Units become vested and nonforfeitable. However, if a scheduled issuance date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, such issuance date shall instead fall on the next following day that the principal executive offices of the Company are open for business. In all cases, the issuance and delivery of shares under this Award Agreement is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such a manner. If you die after vesting but before settlement, your Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to your estate.
7.    Tax Withholding.
(a)    On or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares subject to your Restricted Stock Units, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you may satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to your Restricted Stock Units by any of the following means, which you must elect in advance by making an appropriate election via the account established under your name with E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company (the “Brokerage Account”), or by such other method acceptable to the Committee if you do not have a Brokerage Account, at such time or times specified by the Committee: (i) tendering a cash payment that covers your tax withholding obligation by depositing such cash payment into your Brokerage Account or providing it directly to the Company on or before the date your Restricted Stock Units vest; or (ii) authorizing a sell-to-cover transaction, which involves the automatic sale by E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company, through one or more block trades, of the number of Restricted Stock Units that vest with the value necessary to satisfy the tax withholding obligations, the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of the sale for subsequent payment to the relevant tax authorities, and the release or delivery to you of the remaining vested shares or
2
2021 Stock Plan


if you are an executive officer of the Company at the time you receive such distribution of the shares subject to your Restricted Stock Units, authorizing a net share settlement transaction under which the Company will withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to you in connection with your Restricted Stock Units a number of shares the Fair Market Value of which is sufficient to cover the tax withholding obligation and issuing to you the remaining shares in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units on the date your Restricted Stock Units vest. The Committee shall have discretion to allow any other method of satisfying tax withholding obligations as it may determine to be adequate.
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company will satisfy the tax withholding obligations relating to your Restricted Stock Units through a sell-to-cover transaction or, in the case of an executive officer, a net share settlement transaction (each such transaction as described above) on the date your Restricted Stock Units vest in the following circumstances: (i) you do not make an election in a form acceptable to the Committee on or prior to the date your Restricted Stock Units vest regarding the method of satisfaction of your tax withholding obligation; or (ii) you timely elect to satisfy your tax withholding obligation via tendering a cash payment as provided above, but as of the date your Restricted Stock Units vest there are insufficient funds in your Brokerage Account or received by the Company to cover the tax withholding obligation.
(c)    Any shares of Stock withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
(d)    Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Stock. In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.
8.    Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.
(a)    Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Stock, the number of outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event; provided, however, that any fractional Restricted Stock Units resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated. Adjustments under this paragraph will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
(b)    Treatment on Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a Change in Control, the Board shall determine in its sole discretion, and shall, to the extent applicable, ensure that the definitive documentation setting forth the terms of the Change in Control provides, that either:

    (i)    the Company shall continue to maintain in effect, or the Company’s successor shall assume, the Plan, this Award Agreement and all Restricted Stock Units outstanding hereunder (together with all other outstanding equity incentive plans, award agreements and awards of the Company), and such Restricted Stock Units shall continue to
3
2021 Stock Plan


remain outstanding, with the number and kind of shares or units associated with such Restricted Stock Units adjusted to reflect the Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and otherwise in accordance with and subject to their terms and conditions (including, without limitation, with respect to vesting, exercise, forfeiture, repurchase and restrictive covenants) as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; or

    (ii)    the Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Change in Control in exchange for a cash payment to you in respect thereof in an amount calculated based on the value of the Restricted Stock Units at the time of such Change in Control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, in all cases, assuming the Award was fully vested and exercisable and/or not subject to forfeiture, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt: In respect of any outstanding Restricted Stock Unit, you shall be eligible to receive an amount in cash equal to the per-share consideration received by sellers of the class of shares subject to such Restricted Stock Unit generally in the Change in Control.

Payments described in this Section 8(b) shall be made on, or as soon as administratively practicable following, the Change in Control.
9.    NonGuarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall alter your employment status or other service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any nonvested and forfeitable Restricted Stock Units or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.
10.    Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock that may be issued in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units until such shares of Stock have been issued to you. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 5 of this Award Agreement with respect to dividend equivalent payments or as otherwise permitted under the Plan.
11.    The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Restricted Stock Units shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
12.    Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability
4
2021 Stock Plan


of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
13.    Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Award Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company, or in the case of notices delivered to the Company by you, addressed to the Committee, care of the Company for the attention of its Secretary at its principal executive office or, in either case, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan or accept this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.    Entire Agreement. This Award Agreement, together with the relevant Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Award Agreement with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.
15.    Amendment. This Award Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that this Award Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the Restricted Stock Units as determined in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Plan or in a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.
16.    409A Savings Clause. This Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). In administering this Award Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Award Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the Restricted Stock Units fail to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if you are a “Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)),
5
2021 Stock Plan


then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the payment of dividend equivalents under Section 5 of this Award Agreement shall be construed as earnings and the time and form of payment of such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the time and form of payment of the underlying Restricted Stock Units.
17.    [Reserved.]
18.    No Obligation to Minimize Taxes. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences to you of this award of Restricted Stock Units and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection with this award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this award and by signing the Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.
19.    Conformity with Plan. This Award Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Award Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Award Agreement or any matters as to which this Award Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available on the Company’s intranet or upon written request to the Committee.
20.    No Funding. This Award Agreement constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to issue shares of Stock in the future in accordance with its terms. You have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company as a result of receiving the grant of Restricted Stock Units.
21.    Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.
22.    Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of this Award Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Committee relating to this Award Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Award Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. Any suit with respect hereto will be brought in the federal or state courts in the district which includes the city or town in which the Company’s principal executive office is located, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.

23.    Headings. The headings in this Award Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Award Agreement.
24.    Electronic Delivery of Documents. By your signing the Notice, you (i) consent to the electronic delivery of this Award Agreement, all information with respect to the Plan and the Restricted Stock Units, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders; (ii) acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to you by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing; (iii) further acknowledge that you may revoke your consent to the electronic delivery of documents at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail; and (iv) further acknowledge that you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents.
25.    No Future Entitlement. By your signing the Notice, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) the grant of a restricted stock unit award is a one-time benefit which does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or compensation in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (ii) all determinations with respect to any such future grants and the terms thereof will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; (iii) the value of the restricted stock units is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; (iv) the value of the restricted stock units is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any termination, severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments or similar payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits; (v) the vesting of the restricted stock units ceases upon termination of Service with the Company or transfer of employment from the Company, or other cessation of eligibility for any reason, except as may otherwise be explicitly provided in this Award Agreement; (vi) the Company does not guarantee any future value of the restricted stock units; and (vii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if the restricted stock units decrease or do not increase in value and you irrevocably release the Company from any such claim that does arise.
26.    Personal Data. For purposes of the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of any acquisition, equity or debt financing, joint venture, merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets or other similar corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”), you consent, by execution of the Notice, to the collection, receipt, use, retention and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors or any potential party to a potential Corporate Transaction. You understand that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, employee number, employment status, social security number, tax identification number, date of birth, nationality, job and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes and shares awarded, cancelled, vested and unvested) may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of a Corporate Transaction and you expressly authorize such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data by the recipient(s). You understand that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have
7
2021 Stock Plan


different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the restricted stock units or effect a Corporate Transaction. You understand that you may, at any time, request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the personal data, view data, request additional information about the storage and processing of data, require any necessary amendments to data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Company’s Secretary. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to accept a restricted stock unit award.
27.    Counterparts. The Notice may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
Restricted Stock Award Agreement
under the
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
2021 Stock Plan
1.    Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Award Agreement, capitalized words used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Award Agreement, the Notice, or the Plan.

2.    Termination of Employment or Service.

(a)    If your Service with the Company or successor ceases for any reason, except as otherwise specified in the Notice or below, all Award Shares that are not then vested and nonforfeitable will be immediately forfeited by you and transferred to the Company upon such cessation for no consideration. Any accrued dividends attributable to such forfeited Award Shares shall also be forfeited if and when the Award Shares are forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if your Service terminates as a result of a Qualifying Termination, then all outstanding Award Shares that are not then vested and nonforfeitable shall, effective as of the date on which your Service terminates, become 100% vested and nonforfeitable.

(b)    You acknowledge and agree that upon the forfeiture of any unvested Award Shares, (i) your right to vote and to receive cash dividends on, and all other rights, title or interest in, to or with respect to, the forfeited Award Shares shall automatically, without further act, terminate and (ii) the forfeited Award Shares shall be returned to the Company. You hereby irrevocably appoint (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the Company as your agent and attorney-in-fact to take any necessary or appropriate action to cause the forfeited Award Shares to be returned to the Company, including without limitation executing and delivering stock powers and instruments of transfer, making endorsements and/or making, initiating or issuing instructions or entitlement orders, all in your name and on your behalf. You hereby ratify and approve all acts done by the Company as such attorney-in-fact. Without limiting the foregoing, you expressly acknowledge and agree that any transfer agent for the Stock of the Company is fully authorized and protected in relying on, and shall incur no liability in acting on, any documents, instruments, endorsements, instructions, orders or communications from the Company in connection with the forfeited Award Shares or the transfer thereof, and that any such transfer agent is a third party beneficiary of this Award Agreement.

3.    Restrictions on Transfer and Receipt of Cash Dividends.

(a)    Until an Award Share becomes vested and nonforfeitable, it may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.

2021 Stock Plan


    (b)    Any attempt to dispose of any such Award Shares in contravention of the restrictions set forth in Section 3(a) shall be null and void and without effect. The Company shall not be required to (i) transfer on its books any Award Shares that have been sold or transferred in contravention of this Award Agreement or (ii) treat as the owner of Award Shares, or otherwise accord voting, dividend or liquidation rights to, any transferee to whom Award Shares have been transferred in contravention of this Award Agreement.
    (c)    Any regular or extraordinary cash dividends that become payable with respect to an unvested Award Share will be accrued and held by the Company or an escrow agent appointed by the Committee until the Award Share becomes vested and will be paid to you within fifteen days after the date on which the related Award Share becomes vested or will be forfeited if and when the related Award Share is forfeited.

4.    Stock Certificates.

    (a)    You are reflected as the owner of record of the Award Shares as of the Grant Date on the Company’s books. The Company or an escrow agent appointed by the Committee will hold in escrow the share certificates for safekeeping, or the Company may otherwise retain the Award Shares in uncertificated book entry form, until the Award Shares become vested and nonforfeitable. Until the Award Shares become vested and nonforfeitable, any share certificates representing such shares will include a legend to the effect that you may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate the Award Shares. As soon as practicable after vesting of an Award Share, the Company or its escrow agent will deliver the Award Share to you, subject to the provisions of Section 5 of this Award Agreement. The Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such share on your behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.

    (b)    You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the Award Shares, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered or, if none, future services to be rendered to the Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable state corporate law, you shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to the Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the Award Shares.

5.    Tax Election and Tax Withholding.

(a)    You hereby acknowledge that you have been advised by the Company to seek independent tax advice from your own advisors regarding the availability and advisability of making an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and that any such election, if made, must be made within 30 days of the Grant Date. You expressly acknowledge that you are solely responsible for filing any such Section 83(b) election

2021 Stock Plan


with the appropriate governmental authorities, irrespective of the fact that such election is also delivered to the Company. You may not rely on the Company or any of its officers, directors or employees for tax or legal advice regarding this award. You acknowledge that you have sought tax and legal advice from your own advisors regarding this award or have voluntarily and knowingly foregone such consultation.
(b)    On or before the time you receive the Award Shares, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you may satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to your Award Shares by any of the following means, which you must elect in advance by making an appropriate election via the account established under your name with E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company (the “Brokerage Account”) at such time or times specified by the Committee: (i) tendering a cash payment that covers your tax withholding obligation by depositing such cash payment into your Brokerage Account or providing it directly to the Company on or before the date your Award Shares vest; or (ii) authorizing a sell-to-cover transaction, which involves the automatic sale by E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company, through one or more block trades, of the number of Award Shares that vest with the value necessary to satisfy the tax withholding obligations, the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of the sale for subsequent payment to the relevant tax authorities, and the release or delivery to you of the remaining vested Award Shares. The Committee shall have discretion to allow any other method of satisfying tax withholding obligations as it may determine to be adequate.
(c)    If you do not make an election via your Brokerage Account on or prior to the date your Award Shares vest regarding the method of satisfaction of your tax withholding obligation, or if you timely elect to satisfy your tax withholding obligation via tendering a cash payment as provided above, but as of the date your Award Shares vest there are insufficient funds in your Brokerage Account or received by the Company to cover the tax withholding obligation, then such tax withholding obligation shall be satisfied through a sell-to-cover transaction (as described above).
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 5(b) or 5(c) above, including any election that you may have made through your Brokerage Account, the Company will satisfy the tax withholding obligations relating to your Award Shares by withholding from the shares otherwise deliverable to you in connection with your Award Shares, or redeeming Award Shares, and releasing or delivering to you the remaining shares if on the date your Award Shares vest you are an executive officer of the Company and you have not tendered a cash payment on or before the vesting date in full satisfaction of the tax withholding obligation.
(e)    Any shares withheld or redeemed to satisfy any tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
(f)    Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Stock. If any

2021 Stock Plan


tax withholding obligation is not satisfied in full through one of the methods described in this Section 5, the Company shall have the right to deduct such taxes from any compensation or any other payment of any kind due you (including the right to withhold the issuance or delivery of shares of Stock or to redeem Award Shares). In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.
6.    Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.

(a)    Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Stock, the number of Award Shares and the number of such Award Shares that are nonvested and forfeitable shall, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event. The Committee shall make adjustments, in its discretion, to address the treatment of fractional shares with respect to the Award Shares as a result of the stock dividend, stock split or reverse stock split; provided that such adjustments do not result in the issuance of fractional Award Shares. Adjustments under this Section 6 will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.

(b)    Binding Nature of Agreement. The terms and conditions of this Award Agreement shall apply with equal force to any additional and/or substitute securities received by you in exchange for, or by virtue of your ownership of, the Award Shares, to the same extent as the Award Shares with respect to which such additional and/or substitute securities are distributed, whether as a result of any spin-off, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock distribution, other reclassification of the Stock of the Company, or similar event, except as otherwise determined by the Committee. If the Award Shares are converted into or exchanged for, or stockholders of the Company receive by reason of any distribution in total or partial liquidation or pursuant to any merger of the Company or acquisition of its assets, securities of another entity, or other property (including cash), then the rights of the Company under this Award Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Company’s successor, and this Award Agreement shall apply to the securities or other property (including cash) received upon such conversion, exchange or distribution in the same manner and to the same extent as the Award Shares.

(c)    Treatment on Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in connection with a Change in Control, the Board shall determine in its sole discretion, and shall, to the extent applicable, ensure that the definitive documentation setting forth the terms of the Change in Control provides, that either:

    (i)    the Company shall continue to maintain in effect, or the Company’s successor shall assume, the Plan, this Award Agreement and all Awards Shares outstanding hereunder (together with all other outstanding equity incentive plans, award agreements and awards of the Company), and such Awards Shares shall continue to remain

2021 Stock Plan


outstanding, with the number and kind of such Award Shares adjusted to reflect the Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and otherwise in accordance with and subject to their terms and conditions (including, without limitation, with respect to vesting, exercise, forfeiture, repurchase and restrictive covenants) as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control; or

    (ii)    the Award Shares shall be cancelled immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Change in Control in exchange for a cash payment to you in respect thereof in an amount calculated based on the value of the Award Shares at the time of such Change in Control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, in all cases, assuming the Award was fully vested and exercisable and/or not subject to forfeiture, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt: In respect of any outstanding Award Share, you shall be eligible to receive an amount in cash equal to the per-share consideration received by sellers of the class of such shares generally in the Change in Control.

Payments described in this Section 6(c) shall be made on, or as soon as administratively practicable following, the Change in Control.

7.    Non-Guarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall alter your employment status or other service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any Award Shares or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.

8.    Rights as Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in this Award Agreement with respect to the nonvested and forfeitable Award Shares and the payment of regular or extraordinary cash dividends thereon, you will possess all incidents of ownership of the Award Shares, including the right to vote the Award Shares and receive stock dividends and/or other distributions declared on the Award Shares.

9.    The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Award Shares shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.

2021 Stock Plan

Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
Performance Stock Units Agreement
under the
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
2011 Stock Plan
1.    Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Award Agreement, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Award Agreement, the Notice, or the Plan.
2.    Vesting. All of the Performance Units are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date. Vesting of the Performance Units is subject to both time-based and performance-based vesting as provided in the Notice.
    3.    Termination of Employment or Service.
    (a)    General. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Notice, if your Service with the Company or its successor ceases for any reason, all Performance Units that are not then vested (pursuant to both the applicable time- and performance-based vesting requirements) and nonforfeitable will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Performance Units or the underlying shares of Stock.
    (b)    Termination Due to Death or Disability. Notwithstanding Section 3(a) and subject to Section 3(d) below, if your Service terminates due to your death or Disability after the Grant Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, the Award will vest upon your termination of Service with respect to a number of Performance Units equal to (i) the number of Performance Units corresponding to any Performance Period that ended (before giving effect to any deemed early ending of any Performance Period pursuant to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) prior to the date of your termination of Service that are eligible to vest (as though you had continued in Service until the third anniversary of the Grant Date) based on actual performance for such completed Performance Period(s) (for this purpose, taking in to account the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A as to any such Performance Period(s)), plus (ii) for the next-to-be completed Performance Period as of the date of your termination of Service (i.e., the Performance Period ending on or first scheduled to end after the date of your termination of Service) (before giving effect to any deemed early ending of any Performance Period pursuant to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A), a pro-rata number of the Performance Units corresponding to that Performance Period equal to the total number of Performance Units corresponding to that Performance Period (at the target/100% level, with no adjustment for performance, unless the termination of Service occurs after a Change in Control, in which case the determination shall take into account the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of days from the first day of the Performance Period through the date of your termination of Service and the denominator of which is the total number of days in that Performance Period (for purposes of counting the number of days in such denominator,
1


counting days based on the originally-scheduled Performance Periods without giving effect to any deemed early ending of a Performance Period under the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A). Any Performance Units that are not vested and nonforfeitable after giving effect to the applicable provisions of this Section 3(b) will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon the cessation of your Service with the Company or its successor without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Performance Units or the underlying shares of Stock.

Notwithstanding Section 3(a) and subject to Section 3(d) below, if your Service is terminated by a Participating Company for any reason other than Cause or due to your voluntary resignation for Good Reason after the Grant Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, subject to you satisfying the Release Requirement set forth in Section 3(e) below, the Award would be treated as follows: (i) the number of Performance Units corresponding to any Performance Period that ends on or ended prior to the date of your termination of Service (before giving effect to any deemed early ending of any Performance Period pursuant to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) that are eligible to vest (as though you had continued in Service until the third anniversary of the Grant Date) based on actual performance for such completed Performance Period will vest upon your termination of Service (for this purpose, taking in to account the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A as to any such Performance Period(s)), and (ii) for any Performance Units corresponding to a Performance Period that ends after the date of your termination of Service (before giving effect to any deemed early ending of any Performance Period pursuant to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A), such Performance Units will remain outstanding and eligible to vest at the end of that Performance Period (including any deemed early ending of such a Performance Period giving effect to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) on a pro-rata basis (where the number of Performance Units corresponding to such a Performance Period that will vest at the end of that Performance Period will equal (a) the number of Performance Units corresponding to that Performance Period that are eligible to vest based on actual performance for that Performance Period as determined in accordance with Exhibit A (including any deemed early ending of a Performance Period giving effect to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of days from the first day of the Performance Period through the date of your termination of Service and the denominator of which is the total number of days in that Performance Period (for purposes of this clause (b), counting days based on the originally-scheduled Performance Period without giving effect to any deemed early ending of a Performance Period under the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A)). Any Performance Units that do not remain eligible to vest after giving effect to the applicable provisions of this Section 3(c) will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon the cessation of your Service with the Company or its successor without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Performance Units or the underlying shares of Stock.
(d)    Qualifying Termination. Notwithstanding Section 3(a), if your Service is terminated in a Qualifying Termination prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, subject to you satisfying the Release Requirement set forth in Section 3(e) below, all of the Performance Units subject to the Award as of the date of the Qualifying Termination (after giving effect to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A) shall fully vest as of the Qualifying Termination.
(e)    Release Requirement. Any benefit provided under this Award Agreement pursuant to Section 3(c) or (d) above is subject to the condition precedent that you execute and deliver to the Company, and that you do not revoke pursuant to any applicable revocation right, a general release of claims (a “Release”) as provided in this Section 3(e).
2


    (i)    If you are party to any Change in Control Agreement (or similar agreement) between you and the Company (“Change in Control Agreement”) and are entitled (subject to any applicable release requirement) to benefits under such agreement in connection with your termination of employment, you will be required to provide a Release in the form attached to the Change in Control Agreement within 21 days (or 45 days in the case of a reduction in force) following the date of your termination of employment.
    (ii)    If you are party to the Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. Amended and Restated Change in Control Severance Plan (“Change in Control Severance Plan”) and are entitled (subject to any applicable release requirement) to benefits under such plan in connection with your termination of employment, you will be required to provide a Release in the form attached to the Change in Control Severance Plan within 21 days (or 45 days in the case of a reduction in force) following the date of your termination of employment.
    (iii) If neither clause (i) or (ii) above applies, the Company will provide you the form of Release within 7 days of your termination of employment. You must provide the executed Release to the Company within 21 days (or 45 days in the case of a reduction in force) following the date of the Company provides the Release to you.
In each case, if you do not timely execute the Release, if you do not timely deliver the executed Release to the Company or if you revoke the Release (or any portion thereof) pursuant to any revocation right, you will have not satisfied the Release Requirement of this Section 3(e) and Section 3(a) shall apply.
4.    Restrictions on Transfer. Neither this Award Agreement nor any of the Performance Units may be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and the Performance Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. All rights with respect to this Award Agreement and the Performance Units shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative.
5.    Dividend Equivalent Payments. On each dividend payment date for each cash dividend (regular or extraordinary) on the Stock, the Company will credit your equity award account with dividend equivalents in the form of additional Performance Units. All such additional Performance Units shall be subject to the same vesting requirements (including both time-based and performance-based vesting) applicable to the Performance Units in respect of which they were credited and shall be settled in accordance with, and at the time of, settlement of the vested Performance Units to which they are related. The number of Performance Units to be credited shall equal the quotient, rounded to such fraction as determined by the Committee, calculated by dividing (a) by (b), where “(a)” is the product of (i) the cash dividend payable per share of Stock, multiplied by (ii) the number of Performance Units credited to your account as of the record date, and “(b)” is the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. If your vested Performance Units have been settled after the record date but prior to the dividend payment date, any Performance Units that would be credited pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be settled on or as soon as practicable after the dividend payment date. Nothing herein shall preclude the Committee from exercising its discretion under the Plan to determine whether to eliminate fractional units or credit fractional units to accounts, and the manner in which fractional units will be credited.

6.    Settlement of Performance Units.
(a)    Manner of Settlement. You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement of the Performance Units, the consideration for which shall be services rendered to the Company or for its benefit. The Company will issue to you, in settlement of your Performance Units and subject to the provisions of Section 7 below, the number of whole shares of Stock that equals the number of whole Performance Units that become vested, and such vested Performance Units will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon such issuance of the shares. Upon issuance of such shares, the Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such shares on your behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.
(b)    Timing of Settlement. Your Performance Units will be settled by the Company, via the issuance of Stock as described herein, as soon as practicable after (and in all events within two and one-half months after) the date on which the Performance Units become vested and nonforfeitable. In all cases, the issuance and delivery of shares under this Award Agreement is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such a manner. If you die after vesting but before settlement, your vested and unpaid Performance Units shall be paid to your estate.
7.    Tax Withholding.
(a)    On or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares subject to your Performance Units, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you may satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to your Performance Units by any of the following means, which you must elect in advance by making an appropriate election via the account established under your name with E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company (the “Brokerage Account”), or by such other method acceptable to the Committee if you do not have a Brokerage Account, at such time or times specified by the Committee: (i) tendering a cash payment that covers your tax withholding obligation by depositing such cash payment into your Brokerage Account or providing it directly to the Company on or before the date your Performance Units vest; or (ii) authorizing a sell-to-cover transaction, which involves the automatic sale by E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company, through one or more block trades, of the number of vested shares with the value necessary to satisfy the tax withholding obligations, the assignment to the Company of the proceeds of the sale for subsequent payment to the relevant tax authorities, and the release or delivery to you of the remaining vested shares; or (iii) if you are an executive officer of the Company at the time you receive such distribution of the shares subject to your Performance Units, authorizing a net share settlement transaction under which the Company will withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to you in connection with your Performance Units a number of shares the Fair Market Value of which is sufficient to cover the tax withholding obligation and issuing to you the remaining shares in settlement of your Performance Units on the date your Performance Units vest. The Committee shall have discretion to allow any other method of satisfying tax withholding obligations as it may determine to be adequate.
4


(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company will satisfy the tax withholding obligations relating to your Performance Units through a sell-to-cover transaction or, in the case of an executive officer, a net share settlement transaction (each such transaction as described above) on the date your Performance Units vest in the following circumstances: (i) you do not make an election in a form acceptable to the Committee on or prior to the date your Performance Units vest regarding the method of satisfaction of your tax withholding obligation; or (ii) you timely elect to satisfy your tax withholding obligation via tendering a cash payment as provided above, but as of the date your Performance Units vest there are insufficient funds in your Brokerage Account or received by the Company to cover the tax withholding obligation.
(c)    Any shares of Stock withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
(d)    Unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Stock. In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.
8.    Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events.
(a)    Stock Dividend, Stock Split and Reverse Stock Split. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Stock, the number of outstanding Performance Units shall, without further action of the Committee, be adjusted to reflect such event; provided, however, that any fractional Performance Units resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated. Adjustments under this paragraph will be made by the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
(b)    Treatment on Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision of any Change in Control Agreement to which you are a party or the Change in Control Severance Plan (if you are party to such plan) to the contrary, in connection with a Change in Control, the treatment of the Award (including the number of Performance Units (if any) that shall become eligible to vest in connection with the Change in Control and the circumstances in which such Performance Units shall be eligible to vest) shall be determined as provided in this Award Agreement (including Exhibit A attached to the Notice). Such number of Performance Units subject to the Award that remain eligible to vest after a Change in Control (after giving effect to the Change in Control provisions of Exhibit A to the Notice), together with any other Performance Units that had previously become eligible to vest pursuant to Exhibit A to the Notice and are subject only to time-based vesting as of immediately prior to the Change in Control, are referred to as the “Credited Units.” The Board shall determine in its sole discretion, and shall, to the extent applicable, ensure that the definitive documentation setting forth the terms of the Change in Control provides, that the Credited Units shall be subject to either Section 8(b)(i) or 8(b)(ii) below (or a combination of Section 8(b)(i) or 8(b)(ii)). For clarity, the provisions of any Change in Control Agreement or Change in Control Severance Plan regarding Sections 280G and Section 4999 of the Code shall continue to apply. The determination of the number of Credited Units, as well as Sections 8(b)(i) and b(b)(ii) below, are subject to the provisions of Section 3 (in the case of Section 8(b)(ii), to the extent that the termination of your Service occurred before the Change in Control).
5



    (i)    The Company shall continue to maintain in effect, or the Company’s successor shall assume, the Plan, this Award Agreement and all or a portion of the Credited Units outstanding hereunder, and such Credited Units shall continue to remain outstanding after the Change in Control and be scheduled to vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date as set forth in the Notice (subject to accelerated vesting as provided in this Award Agreement). The number and kind of shares or units associated with such Credited Units shall be adjusted to reflect the Change in Control in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and otherwise in accordance with and subject to their terms and conditions as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

    (ii)    If any Credited Units are not continued or assumed in accordance with Section 8(b)(i), such Credited Units shall be cancelled immediately prior to and contingent upon the consummation of such Change in Control in exchange for a cash payment to you in respect thereof in an amount calculated based on the value of the Credited Units at the time of such Change in Control as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, in all cases, assuming such Credited Units were fully vested. For avoidance of doubt: In respect of any outstanding Credited Unit, you shall be eligible to receive an amount in cash equal to the per-share consideration received by sellers of the class of shares subject to such Credited Unit generally in the Change in Control.
Payments described in this Section 8(b) shall be made as provided in Section 6(b).
9.    NonGuarantee of Employment or Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall alter your employment status or other service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in the employ of, or in a service relationship with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any nonvested and forfeitable Performance Units or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.
10.    Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock that may be issued in settlement of the Performance Units until such shares of Stock have been issued to you. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 5 of this Award Agreement with respect to dividend equivalent payments or as otherwise permitted under the Plan.
11.    The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Performance Units shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
12.    Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Performance Units shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock
6


may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Performance Units shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Performance Units, the Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
13.    Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Award Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company, or in the case of notices delivered to the Company by you, addressed to the Committee, care of the Company for the attention of its Secretary at its principal executive office or, in either case, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this award of Performance Units by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan or accept this award of Performance Units by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.    Entire Agreement. This Award Agreement, together with the relevant Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Performance Units granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Award Agreement with respect to the Performance Units granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.
15.    Amendment. This Award Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its discretion; provided, however, that this Award Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the Performance Units as determined in the discretion of the Committee, except as provided in the Plan or in a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.
16.    409A Savings Clause. This Award Agreement and the Performance Units granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). In administering this Award Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Award Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that any Performance Units fail to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if you are a “Specified Employee” (within the
7


meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the payment of dividend equivalents under Section 5 of this Award Agreement shall be construed as earnings and the time and form of payment of such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the time and form of payment of the underlying Performance Units.
17.    No Obligation to Minimize Taxes. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences to you of this award of Performance Units and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection with this award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this award and by signing the Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.
18.    Conformity with Plan. This Award Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Award Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Award Agreement or any matters as to which this Award Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available on the Company’s intranet or upon written request to the Committee.
19.    No Funding. This Award Agreement constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to issue shares of Stock in the future in accordance with its terms. You have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company as a result of receiving the grant of Performance Units.
20.    Effect on Other Employee Benefit Plans. The value of the Performance Units subject to this Award Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s employee benefit plans.
21.    Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of this Award Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Committee relating to this Award Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Award Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. Any suit with respect hereto will be brought in the federal or state courts in the district which includes the city or town in which the Company’s principal executive office is located, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.

22.    Headings. The headings in this Award Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Award Agreement.
23.    Electronic Delivery of Documents. By your signing the Notice, you (i) consent to the electronic delivery of this Award Agreement, all information with respect to the Plan and the Performance Units, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders; (ii) acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to you by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing; (iii) further acknowledge that you may revoke your consent to the electronic delivery of documents at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail; and (iv) further acknowledge that you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents.
24.    No Future Entitlement. By your signing the Notice, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) the grant of a Performance Unit award is a one-time benefit which does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Performance Units, or compensation in lieu of Performance Units, even if Performance Units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (ii) all determinations with respect to any such future grants and the terms thereof will be at the sole discretion of the Committee; (iii) the value of the Performance Units is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of your employment contract, if any; (iv) the value of the Performance Units is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any termination, severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments or similar payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits; (v) the vesting of the Performance Units ceases upon termination of Service with the Company or transfer of employment from the Company, or other cessation of eligibility for any reason, except as may otherwise be explicitly provided in this Award Agreement; (vi) the Company does not guarantee any future value of the Performance Units; and (vii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if the Performance Units decrease or do not increase in value and you irrevocably release the Company from any such claim that does arise.
25.    Personal Data. For purposes of the implementation, administration and management of the Performance Units or the effectuation of any acquisition, equity or debt financing, joint venture, merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets or other similar corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”), you consent, by execution of the Notice, to the collection, receipt, use, retention and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors or any potential party to a potential Corporate Transaction. You understand that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, employee number, employment status, social security number, tax identification number, date of birth, nationality, job and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes and shares awarded, cancelled, vested and unvested) may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Performance Units or the effectuation of a Corporate Transaction and you expressly authorize such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data by the recipient(s). You understand that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that data will be held only
9


as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Performance Units or effect a Corporate Transaction. You understand that you may, at any time, request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the personal data, view data, request additional information about the storage and processing of data, require any necessary amendments to data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Company’s Secretary. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to accept a Performance Unit award.
26.    Counterparts. The Notice may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
Director Restricted Stock Units Agreement
under the
Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc.
2021 Stock Plan
1.    Terminology. Unless otherwise provided in this Award Agreement, capitalized terms used herein are defined in the Glossary at the end of this Award Agreement, the Notice, or the Plan.
2.    Vesting. All of the Restricted Stock Units are nonvested and forfeitable as of the Grant Date. So long as your Service is continuous from the Grant Date through the applicable date upon which vesting is scheduled to occur, the Restricted Stock Units will become vested and nonforfeitable in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice. None of the Restricted Stock Units will become vested and nonforfeitable after your Service ceases.
    3.    Termination of Service. If your Service with the Company or its successor ceases for any reason, all Restricted Stock Units that are not vested and nonforfeitable on the date of such cessation of Service will be forfeited to the Company immediately and automatically upon such cessation without payment of any consideration therefor and you will have no further right, title or interest in or to such Restricted Stock Units or the underlying shares of Stock.
4.    Restrictions on Transfer. Neither this Award Agreement nor any of the Restricted Stock Units may be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or disposed of in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and the Restricted Stock Units shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. All rights with respect to this Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units shall be exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative.
5.    Dividend Equivalent Payments. On each dividend payment date for each cash dividend (regular or extraordinary) on the Stock, the Company will credit your equity award account with dividend equivalents in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units. All such additional Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the same vesting requirements applicable to the Restricted Stock Units in respect of which they were credited and shall be settled in accordance with, and at the time of, settlement of the vested Restricted Stock Units to which they are related. The number of Restricted Stock Units to be credited shall equal the quotient, rounded to such fraction as determined by the Board, calculated by dividing (a) by (b), where “(a)” is the product of (i) the cash dividend payable per share of Stock, multiplied by (ii) the number of Restricted Stock Units credited to your account as of the record date, and “(b)” is the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. If your vested Restricted Stock Units have been settled after the record date but prior to the dividend payment date, any Restricted Stock Units that would be credited pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be settled on or as soon as practicable after the dividend payment date. Nothing herein shall preclude the Board from exercising its discretion under the Plan to determine whether to eliminate fractional
1


units or credit fractional units to accounts, and the manner in which fractional units will be credited.
6.    Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.
(a)    Manner of Settlement. You are not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if required) as a condition to settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the consideration for which shall be services rendered to the Company or for its benefit. The Company will issue to you, in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units and subject to the provisions of Section 7 below, the number of whole shares of Stock that equals the number of whole Restricted Stock Units that become vested, and such vested Restricted Stock Units will terminate and cease to be outstanding upon such issuance of the shares. Upon issuance of such shares, the Company will determine the form of delivery (e.g., a stock certificate or electronic entry evidencing such shares) and may deliver such shares on your behalf electronically to the Company’s designated stock plan administrator or such other broker-dealer as the Company may choose at its sole discretion, within reason.
(b)    Timing of Settlement. Your Restricted Stock Units will be settled by the Company, via the issuance of Stock as described herein, on the date that the Restricted Stock Units become vested and nonforfeitable. However, if a scheduled issuance date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, such issuance date shall instead fall on the next following day that the principal executive offices of the Company are open for business. In all cases, the issuance and delivery of shares under this Award Agreement is intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and shall be construed and administered in such a manner. If you die after vesting but before settlement, your Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to your estate.
7.    Tax Withholding.
(a)    If any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding by the Company and/or any Affiliate is required with respect to the Restricted Stock Units, on or before the time you receive a distribution of the shares subject to your Restricted Stock Units, or at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you may satisfy any such federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to your Restricted Stock Units by any of the following means, which you must elect in advance by making an appropriate election via the account established under your name with E*TRADE Financial or such other brokerage firm selected by the Company (the “Brokerage Account”), or by such other method acceptable to the Board if you do not have a Brokerage Account, at such time or times specified by the Board: (i) tendering a cash payment that covers your tax withholding obligation by depositing such cash payment into your Brokerage Account or providing it directly to the Company on or before the date your Restricted Stock Units vest; or (ii) authorizing a net share settlement transaction under which the Company will withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to you in connection with your Restricted Stock Units a number of shares the Fair Market Value of which is sufficient to cover the tax withholding obligation and issuing to you the remaining shares in settlement of your Restricted Stock Units on the date your Restricted Stock Units vest. The Board shall have discretion to allow any other method of satisfying tax withholding obligations as it may determine to be adequate.
2


(b)    Any shares of Stock withheld to satisfy any tax withholding obligations shall not exceed the amount determined by the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates.
(c)    Unless any applicable tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver to you any Stock. In the event the Company’s obligation to withhold arises prior to the delivery to you of Stock or it is determined after the delivery of Stock to you that the amount of the Company’s withholding obligation was greater than the amount withheld by the Company, you agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any failure by the Company to withhold the proper amount.
8.    Adjustments for Corporate Transactions and Other Events. Upon a stock dividend of, or stock split or reverse stock split affecting, the Stock, the number of outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall, without further action of the Board, be adjusted to reflect such event; provided, however, that any fractional Restricted Stock Units resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated. Adjustments under this paragraph will be made by the Board, whose determination as to what adjustments, if any, will be made and the extent thereof will be final, binding and conclusive.
9.    NonGuarantee of Service Relationship. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall alter your service relationship with the Company, nor be construed as a contract of employment or service relationship between the Company and you, or as a contractual right of you to continue in service with, the Company for any period of time, or as a limitation of the right of the Company to discharge you at any time with or without cause or notice and whether or not such discharge results in the forfeiture of any nonvested and forfeitable Restricted Stock Units or any other adverse effect on your interests under the Plan.
10.    Rights as Stockholder. You shall not have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any shares of Stock that may be issued in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units until such shares of Stock have been issued to you. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions, or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are issued, except as provided in Section 5 of this Award Agreement with respect to dividend equivalent payments or as otherwise permitted under the Plan.
11.    The Company’s Rights. The existence of the Restricted Stock Units shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments, recapitalizations, reorganizations, or other changes in the Company's capital structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or other stocks with preference ahead of or convertible into, or otherwise affecting the Stock or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company's assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
12.    Restrictions on Issuance of Shares. The issuance of shares of Stock upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to and in compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state, or foreign law with respect to such securities. No shares of Stock may be issued hereunder if the issuance of such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state, or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Stock may then be listed. The inability
3


of the Company to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Company’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of any shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained. As a condition to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the Company may require you to satisfy any qualifications that may be necessary or appropriate, to evidence compliance with any applicable law or regulation, and to make any representation or warranty with respect thereto as may be requested by the Company.
13.    Notices. All notices and other communications made or given pursuant to this Award Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company, or in the case of notices delivered to the Company by you, addressed to the Board, care of the Company for the attention of its Secretary at its principal executive office or, in either case, if the receiving party consents in advance, transmitted and received via telecopy or via such other electronic transmission mechanism as may be available to the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan or accept this award of Restricted Stock Units by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and, if requested, to agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.
14.    Entire Agreement. This Award Agreement, together with the relevant Notice and the Plan, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder. Any oral or written agreements, representations, warranties, written inducements, or other communications made prior to the execution of this Award Agreement with respect to the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be void and ineffective for all purposes.
15.    Amendment. This Award Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Board in its discretion; provided, however, that this Award Agreement may not be modified in a manner that would have a materially adverse effect on the Restricted Stock Units as determined in the discretion of the Board, except as provided in the Plan or in a written document signed by each of the parties hereto.
16.    409A Savings Clause. This Award Agreement and the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). In administering this Award Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Award Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the Restricted Stock Units fail to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if you are a “Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of your separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation
4


from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on you in respect of the shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, the payment of dividend equivalents under Section 5 of this Award Agreement shall be construed as earnings and the time and form of payment of such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the time and form of payment of the underlying Restricted Stock Units.
17.    No Obligation to Minimize Taxes. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences to you of this award of Restricted Stock Units and shall not be liable to you for any adverse tax consequences to you arising in connection with this award. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, financial and/or legal advisors regarding the tax consequences of this award and by signing the Notice, you have agreed that you have done so or knowingly and voluntarily declined to do so.
18.    Conformity with Plan. This Award Agreement is intended to conform in all respects with, and is subject to all applicable provisions of, the Plan. Inconsistencies between this Award Agreement and the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with the terms of the Plan. In the event of any ambiguity in this Award Agreement or any matters as to which this Award Agreement is silent, the Plan shall govern. A copy of the Plan is available on the Company’s intranet or upon written request to the Board.
19.    No Funding. This Award Agreement constitutes an unfunded and unsecured promise by the Company to issue shares of Stock in the future in accordance with its terms. You have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company as a result of receiving the grant of Restricted Stock Units.
20.    Effect on Other Benefit Plans. The value of the Restricted Stock Units subject to this Award Agreement shall not be included as compensation, earnings, salaries, or other similar terms used when calculating your benefits under any benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any Affiliate, except as such plan otherwise expressly provides. The Company expressly reserves its rights to amend, modify, or terminate any of the Company’s or any Affiliate’s benefit plans.
21.    Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of this Award Agreement, and of any determinations or decisions made by the Board relating to this Award Agreement, and the rights of any and all persons having or claiming to have any interest under this Award Agreement, shall be determined exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its provisions concerning the applicability of laws of other jurisdictions. Any suit with respect hereto will be brought in the federal or state courts in the district which includes the city or town in which the Company’s principal executive office is located, and you hereby agree and submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue thereof.
22.    Headings. The headings in this Award Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Award Agreement.

By your signing the Notice, you (i) consent to the electronic delivery of this Award Agreement, all information with respect to the Plan and the Restricted Stock Units, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders; (ii) acknowledge that you may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to you by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing; (iii) further acknowledge that you may revoke your consent to the electronic delivery of documents at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent by telephone, postal service or electronic mail; and (iv) further acknowledge that you understand that you are not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents.
24.    No Future Entitlement. By your signing or accepting the Notice, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) the grant of a restricted stock unit award is a one-time benefit which does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of restricted stock units, or compensation in lieu of restricted stock units, even if restricted stock units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (ii) all determinations with respect to any such future grants and the terms thereof will be at the sole discretion of the Board; (iii) the value of the restricted stock units is an extraordinary item of compensation which is outside the scope of your employment or service, as the case may be, contract, if any; (iv) the value of the restricted stock units is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, but not limited to, calculating any termination, severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments or similar payments, or bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits; (v) the vesting of the restricted stock units ceases upon termination of Service with the Company; (vi) the Company does not guarantee any future value of the restricted stock units; and (vii) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises if the restricted stock units decrease or do not increase in value and you irrevocably release the Company from any such claim that does arise.
25.    Personal Data. For purposes of the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of any acquisition, equity or debt financing, joint venture, merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, business combination, liquidation, dissolution, share exchange, sale of stock, sale of material assets or other similar corporate transaction involving the Company (a “Corporate Transaction”), you consent, by execution of the Notice, to the collection, receipt, use, retention and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data by and among the Company and its third party vendors or any potential party to a potential Corporate Transaction. You understand that personal data (including but not limited to, name, home address, telephone number, social security number, tax identification number, date of birth, nationality, job and payroll location, data for tax withholding purposes and shares awarded, cancelled, vested and unvested) may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the restricted stock units or the effectuation of a Corporate Transaction and you expressly authorize such transfer as well as the retention, use, and the subsequent transfer of the data by the recipient(s). You understand that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the restricted stock units or effect a Corporate Transaction. You understand that you may, at any time, request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the personal data, view data, request additional information about the storage and processing of data, require any necessary amendments to data or refuse or withdraw the consents

herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Company’s Secretary. You understand, however, that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to accept a restricted stock unit award.
