Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants, as of _________________ (the “Date of Grant”), to ________________ (the “Optionee”) an option (the “Option”) to purchase up to ___________ shares of the Company’s
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Shares”), at an exercise price per share equal to $__________[must be 100% of FMV as of Date of Grant, or 110% of FMV in the case of a 10% owner] (the “Exercise Price”). The Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Option is being granted pursuant to the Company’s 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is incorporated herein for all purposes. The Option is an Incentive Stock Option, and not a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The Optionee hereby acknowledges
receipt of a copy of the Plan and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions hereof and thereof and all applicable laws and regulations.
2. Definitions. Unless otherwise
provided herein, terms used herein that are defined in the Plan and not defined herein shall have the meanings attributed thereto in the Plan.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Sections 3(b) and 6 of this Agreement, or in the Plan, the Option is exercisable in installments as provided below, which shall be
cumulative. To the extent that the Option has become exercisable with respect to a percentage of Shares as provided below, the Option may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the
expiration of the Option as provided herein. The following table indicates each date (the “Vesting Date”) upon which the Optionee shall be entitled
to exercise the Option with respect to the percentage of Shares granted as indicated beside the date, provided that the Continuous Service (as defined below) of the Optionee continues through and on the applicable Vesting Date:

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, there shall be no proportionate or partial vesting in the
periods prior to each Vesting Date, and all vesting shall occur only on the appropriate Vesting Date. Upon the termination of the Optionee’s Continuous Service, any unvested portion of the Option shall terminate and be null and void.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Plan, upon a Change of Control of the Company during the Optionee’s Continuous Service with the Company and its
Related Entities, the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately vest, in full, as of the date of such Change of Control.
4. Method of Exercise. The vested
portion of this Option shall be exercisable in whole or in part in accordance with the exercise schedule set forth in Section 3 hereof by written notice which shall state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which
the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the holder’s investment intent with respect to such Shares as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall be
signed by the Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by certified mail to the Secretary of the Company. The written notice shall be accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised after both (a)
receipt by the Company of such written notice accompanied by the Exercise Price and (b) arrangements that are satisfactory to the Committee in its sole discretion have been made for Optionee’s payment to the Company of the amount, if any, that is
necessary to be withheld in accordance with applicable Federal or state withholding requirements. No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the Option unless and until such issuance and such exercise shall comply with all relevant provisions of
applicable law, including the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares then may be traded.
5. Method of Payment. Payment of the
Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee: (a) cash; (b) check; (c) to the extent permitted by the Committee, with Shares owned by the Optionee, or the withholding of Shares that
otherwise would be delivered to the Optionee as a result of the exercise of the Option; or (d) pursuant to a “cashless exercise” procedure, by delivery of a properly executed exercise notice together with such other documentation, and subject to
such guidelines, as the Committee shall require to effect an exercise of the Option and delivery to the Company by a licensed broker acceptable to the Company of proceeds from the sale of Shares sufficient to pay the Exercise Price and any
applicable income or employment taxes.
6. Termination of Option.
(a) General. Any unexercised portion of
the Option shall automatically and without notice terminate and become null and void at the time of the earliest to occur of the following:

other than by reason of (A) by the Company or a Related Company for Cause, (B) a Disability of the Optionee as determined by a medical doctor satisfactory to the Committee, or (C) the death of the Optionee;

the meanings indicated:
(i) “Cause” shall have the equivalent
meaning or the same meaning as “cause” or “for cause” set forth in any employment, consulting, or other agreement for the performance of services between the Optionee and the Company or a Related Company or, in the absence of any such agreement or
any such definition in such agreement, such term shall mean (A) the failure by the Optionee to perform, in a reasonable manner, his or her duties as assigned by the Company or a Related Company, (B) any violation or breach by the Optionee of his or
her employment, consulting or other similar agreement with the Company or a Related Company, if any, (C) any violation or breach by the Optionee of any non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disclosure and/or other similar agreement with the

performance, or (F) the commission by the Optionee of any act, misdemeanor, or crime reflecting unfavorably upon the Optionee or the Company or any Related Company. The good faith determination by the Committee of whether the Optionee’s Continuous
Service was terminated by the Company for “Cause” shall be final and binding for all purposes hereunder.
(ii) “Continuous Service” means the
uninterrupted provision of services to the Company or any Related Company in any capacity of employee, director, consultant or other service provider. Continuous Service shall not be considered to be interrupted in the case of (a) any approved
leave of absence (including, without limitation, sick leave, military leave, or any other authorized personal leave), (b) transfers among the Company, any Related Companies, or any successor entities, in any capacity of employee, director,
consultant or other service provider, or (c) any change in status as long as the individual remains in the service of the Company or a Related Company in any capacity of employee, director, consultant or other service provider.

Optionee, or the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative. In addition, the Option shall not be assigned, negotiated, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise), and the Option shall not be subject to
execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, negotiate, pledge or hypothecate the Option, or in the event of any levy upon the Option by reason of any execution, attachment or similar process contrary to the
provisions hereof, the Option shall immediately become null and void. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee.
8. No Rights of Stockholders. Neither
the Optionee nor any personal representative (or beneficiary) shall be, or shall have any of the rights and privileges of, a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Shares purchasable or issuable upon the exercise of the Option, in whole or
in part, prior to the date on which the Shares are issued.

Neither the Option nor this Agreement shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continued employment or service with the Company.
10. Law Governing. This Agreement shall
be governed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of New York.
11. Incentive Stock Option Treatment. The
terms of this Option shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the intent of the Company and the Optionee that the Option qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Section 422 of the Code. If any provision of the Plan or this Agreement
shall be impermissible in order for the Option to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then the Option shall be construed and enforced as if such provision had never been included in the Plan or the Option. If and to the extent that the number of
Options granted pursuant to this Agreement exceeds the limitations contained in Section 422 of the Code on the value of Shares with respect to which this Option may qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, this Option shall be a Non-Qualified Stock
Option.
12. Interpretation / Provisions of Plan Control.

The Optionee accepts the Option subject to all of the terms and provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. The undersigned Optionee hereby accepts as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any
questions arising under the Plan and this Agreement, unless shown to have been made in an arbitrary and capricious manner.
