• Stock Grants You may receive stock awards under an equity incentive compensation plan of Tyson then in effect (if any), on terms and in amounts consistent with those provided to other employees in your Band, subject to the discretion of the senior management of Tyson.

• Option Grants During the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Instinet 2000 Stock Option Plan (as the same may be amended and in effect from time to time, the "2000 Option Plan") and any subsequent stock option plan maintained by the Company for its senior executives, subject to the review and approval of the Compensation Committee. The terms and conditions of all options to purchase shares of common stock granted to Executive under the 2000 Option Plan or under any prior or subsequent stock option plan maintained by the Company or its Affiliates (including any options granted to Executive prior to the Commencement Date) (collectively, the "Options"), including the grant, vesting, exercise, payment and all other terms of such Options, shall be governed by the terms of the stock option plan under which such Options were granted, as such plan or plans may be amended and in effect from time to time.

• Renewal Options a. Tenant shall have the right and option to renew the Lease (“Renewal Option”) for two (2) successive renewal periods of five (5) years each (each, an “Option Term”); provided, however, the Renewal Option is contingent upon the following: (i) there is not an Event of Default beyond all applicable cure period(s) at the time Tenant gives Landlord notice of Tenant’s intention to exercise the Renewal Option or at the expiration of the current Term; (ii) no event has occurred that upon notice or the passage of time would constitute an Event of Default, unless Landlord has given notice of default and Tenant is diligently attempting to cure such event; and (iii) Tenant is occupying the Premises. Following expiration of the final Option Term allowable hereunder, Tenant shall have no further right to renew the Lease pursuant to this Section 5. b. Tenant shall exercise the Renewal Option by giving Landlord notice at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the current Term. If Tenant fails to give notice to Landlord prior to the 180-day period, then Tenant shall forfeit the Renewal Option. If Tenant exercises the Renewal Option, then during the Option Term, Landlord and Tenant’s respective rights, duties and obligations shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Lease, except as provided otherwise in this Section. Time is of the essence in exercising the Renewal Option. c. The Base Rental for an Option Term shall be the Fair Market Rental Rate. “Fair Market Rental Rate” shall mean the market rental rate for the time period such determination is being made for office space in same class office buildings in the area of Murfreesboro, Tennessee (the “Area”) of comparable condition for space of equivalent quality, size, utility, and location. Such determination shall take into account all relevant factors, including, without limitation, the following matters: the credit standing of Tenant; the length of the term; the fact that Landlord will experience no vacancy period and that Tenant will not suffer the costs and business interruption associated with moving its offices and negotiating a new lease; construction allowances and other tenant concessions that would be available to tenants comparable to Tenant in the Area (such as moving expense allowance, free rent periods, and lease assumptions and take over provisions, if any, but specifically excluding the value of improvements installed in the Premises at Tenant’s cost), and whether adjustments are then being made in determining the rental rates for renewals in the Area because of concessions being offered by Landlord to Tenant (or the lack thereof for the Option Term in question). For purposes of such calculation, it will only be assumed that Landlord is paying a representative of Tenant a brokerage commission in connection with the Option Term in question if Landlord is in fact paying a brokerage commission to a representative of Tenant in connection with the applicable Option Term.

• Stock Appreciation Rights The Grantee or other person entitled to exercise this Option is further hereby granted the right ("Stock Appreciation Right") in lieu of exercising this Option or any portion thereof to receive an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the excess of the Fair Market Value of the stock subject to this Option or such portion thereof over the aggregate exercise price for such shares hereunder as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, or (b) 200% of the aggregate exercise price for such shares hereunder. The amount payable upon exercise of such Stock Appreciation Right may be settled by payment in cash or in shares of the class then subject to this Option valued on the basis of their Fair Market Value on the date Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, or in a combination of cash and such shares so valued. No Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised, in whole or in part, (i) other than in connection with the contemporaneous surrender without exercise of this Option or the portion thereof that corresponds to the portion of the Stock Appreciation Right being exercised, or (ii) except to the extent that this Option or such portion thereof is exercisable on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right by the Person exercising the Stock Appreciation Right, or (iii) unless the class of stock then subject to this Option is then Publicly Traded.

• Equity Grants The Employee shall be granted as soon as practicable on or after the Effective Date, a stock option to purchase 734,900 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option”) (which option shall be issued as an incentive stock option to the maximum extent allowed under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”)) pursuant to the Company’s 2011 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Option shall be granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Twenty-Five percent (25%) of the Option shall be vested one year from the Effective Date and the remaining portion of such Option shall vest in equal monthly installments over a thirty-six (36) month period commencing on the first day of the month one year following the Effective Date, subject to continued employment by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan) or if a termination of the Employee occurs within two (2) months prior thereto, then the vesting of all equity then owned by the Employee shall accelerate with respect to one hundred percent (100%) of the unvested shares. In lieu of the Option at the request of the Employee, the Company shall issue restricted common stock. Restricted common stock will be issued at par value. If the equity to be issued is restricted common stock and not stock options, the number of shares of restricted common stock to be issued shall be calculated by determining the black scholes value of the grant as if it had been issued solely as stock options and dividing such number by the then current fair market value of the Company’s common stock so as to provide no additional benefit to the Employee for the non-payment of the exercise price. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that effective as of the date of the grant of the equity as set forth in the preceding paragraph, option agreement No. SP-0040 granted by the Company to the Employee as of April 30, 2011 shall be terminated and of no further force and effect. The Company acknowledges that any other options previously granted to the Employee that vest based upon the Employee providing consulting services to the Company shall continue to vest upon its terms as long as the Employee is providing services as a director, consultant or employee of the Company and that the definition of “cause” applicable to all such option agreements shall be the definition set forth herein and not as set forth in the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan.

• Initial Grant As soon as practicable after the effective date of this Agreement and subject to Board and all other required approvals, the Company shall grant to the Executive under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) a non-qualified stock option to purchase a number of shares of the common stock of the Company equal to 5.15% of the Company’s fully-diluted common stock (excluding the effects of any conversion of the (i) debt issued in connection with the Initial Financing, (ii) the investor convertible subordinated debt issued in January 2014 or (iii) any other convertible debt that is issued prior to the thirty-six (36) month anniversary of the Effective Date) with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock (as determined by the Board pursuant to the Plan) at the time of grant. The Initial Grant shall be granted pursuant to and governed by the terms of a stock option award agreement in a form provided by the Company at the time of grant; provided, however, that the form shall provide for cashless exercise of the option in an amount sufficient to satisfy the option exercise price. Provided the Executive remains continuously and actively employed with the Company through the applicable vesting date, the Initial Grant will be vested and exercisable with respect to (i) 10% of the underlying common stock as of the Effective Date, (ii) 25% of the underlying common stock on the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Date, and (iii) the remaining shares of underlying common stock in substantially equal monthly installments over the 36-month period that commences on the first (1st) anniversary of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Initial Grant shall be fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to, but contingent upon, the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined above), provided the Executive remains continuously and actively employed with the Company through the date of such Change in Control.
