Each PARSU shall relate to one share of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Stock”) of the Company. 1. Restrictions on Transfer of Award. This Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee, and any shares of Stock issuable with respect to the Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of until (i) the PARSUs have vested as provided in Paragraph 2 of this Agreement and (ii) shares of Stock have been issued to the Grantee in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement. 2. Vesting of PARSUs. The restrictions and conditions of Paragraph 1 of this Agreement shall lapse on the vesting date or dates specified in the following schedule (each a “Vesting Date” and, collectively, the “Vesting Dates”) so long as the Grantee maintains a Service Relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary on each such Vesting Date. If a series of Vesting Dates is specified, then the restrictions and conditions in Paragraph 1 shall lapse only with respect to the number of PARSUs specified as vested on each such date. In order for accelerated vesting to occur under this Award, each of the performance milestones (the “Performance Milestones”) set forth below must be determined to have been achieved on or prior to February 13, 2029 (the “Outside Vesting Date”).

The OLCC may at any time accelerate the vesting schedule specified in this Paragraph 2. 3. Termination of Service Relationship. If the Grantee’s employment or other Service Relationship with the Company and its Subsidiaries terminates for any reason (including death or disability) prior to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions set forth in Paragraph 2 above, any PARSUs that have not vested as of such date shall automatically and without notice terminate and be forfeited, and neither the Grantee nor any of his or her successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such unvested PARSUs. 4. Issuance of Shares of Stock. As soon as practicable following each Vesting Date (but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the year in which the Vesting Date occurs), the Company shall issue to the Grantee the number of shares of Stock equal to the aggregate number of PARSUs that have vested pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement on such date and the Grantee shall thereafter have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such shares. 5.

Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein. 6. Tax Withholding. The Grantee shall, not later than the date as of which the receipt of this Award becomes a taxable event for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. The Company shall have the authority to cause the required tax withholding obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by either withholding from shares of Stock to be issued to the Grantee a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding amount due or selling from the number of shares of Stock to be issued to the Grantee, the number of shares of Stock necessary to satisfy the Federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld from the Grantee on account of such transfer. 7. Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner that all provisions relating to the settlement of the Award are exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals” as described in Section 409A of the Code. 8. No Obligation to Continue Service Relationship. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue the Grantee in employment or other Service Relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary, and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment or other Service Relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary of the Grantee at any time. 9. Integration. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Award and supersedes all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning such subject matter. For purposes of clarity, this Agreement expressly does not supersede the Employee Confidentiality and Assignment Agreement (or other agreement with similar title) into which the Grantee may have entered in connection with the Grantee’s commencement of employment with the Company. The Grantee’s obligations under this Agreement are in addition to the obligations outlined in such agreements. To the extent any obligation in the Employee Confidentiality and Assignment Agreement (or other agreement with similar title) is found to conflict with Grantee’s obligations hereunder, this Agreement shall govern. 10.
