Second Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Award Plan
On September 16, 2026, Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (the “Company”) held its annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Second Amended and Restated Houlihan Lokey, Inc. 2016 Incentive Award Plan (the “Second A&R Plan”), which the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) had previously adopted on July 22, 2026, subject to stockholder approval. The Second A&R Plan became effective as of September 16, 2026, the date of the Annual Meeting.
The Second A&R Plan makes the following material amendments to the Amended and Restated Houlihan Lokey, Inc. 2016 Incentive Award Plan (the “Existing Plan”):
•
Changes the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance to 12 million shares as of the effective date of the Second A&R Plan;
•
Reinstates the automatic annual increase of the number of shares reserved for issuance that expired in 2025, but decreases the size of the increase from 6% to 1% of the Company’s Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year (on an as-converted basis);
•
Changes the aggregate number of shares which may be granted as incentive stock options to 12 million shares as of the effective date of the Second A&R Plan;
•
Removes the Existing Plan’s fixed expiration date so that the Second A&R Plan will remain in effect unless and until terminated by the plan administrator, subject to share availability;
•
Removes provisions intended to enable awards to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, due to changes in law pursuant to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminating this concept, including the individual award limit; and
•
Amends the definition of eligible consultants to include any individual or entity that qualifies as a consultant under the Form S-8 rules.
The foregoing description of the Second A&R Plan is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the terms of the Second A&R Plan, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Election of Thomas Reichert to the Board of Directors
On September 16, 2026, the Board elected Thomas Reichert as an independent Class I director of the Company, effective as of October 1, 2026. Mr. Reichert’s term will expire at the Company’s 2028 annual meeting of stockholders and upon the election and qualification of his successor. Effective as of October 1, 2026, Mr. Reichert will also serve as a member of the Audit Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board.

Mr. Reichert earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Bayreuth, an M.B.A. from Indiana University and a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Bayreuth.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Reichert and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Reichert was selected as our director. There are no transactions in which Mr. Reichert has a material interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Mr. Reichert has entered into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for directors.
Mr. Reichert will receive the standard compensation received by non-employee directors under the Company’s Director Compensation Program (the “Compensation Program”). As part of the Compensation Program, effective as of the effective date of his election to the Board, the Board granted Mr. Reichert an award of restricted shares of Class A common stock under the Second A&R Plan. The award has a value equal to $120,000, and will vest in substantially equal installments on the first, second and third anniversaries of the effective date of his election, subject to his continuing service through the applicable vesting date, and will vest in full upon a termination of his service due to his death or disability.

Exhibit 10.1
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
HOULIHAN LOKEY, INC.
2016 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN
ARTICLE I.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Second Amended and Restated Houlihan Lokey, Inc. 2016 Incentive Award Plan is to enhance the Company’s
ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who make (or are expected to make) important contributions to the Company by providing these individuals with equity ownership opportunities. The Plan amends and restates in its entirety the Amended
and Restated Houlihan Lokey, Inc. 2016 Incentive Award Plan (as amended, the “Original Plan”). Capitalized terms used in the Plan are defined in Article XI.
ARTICLE II.
ELIGIBILITY
Service Providers are eligible to be granted Awards under the Plan, subject to the limitations described herein.
ARTICLE III.
ADMINISTRATION AND DELEGATION
3.1 Administration. The Plan is administered by the Administrator. The Administrator has authority to (a) determine which Service
Providers receive Awards, (b) grant Awards and (c) set Award terms and conditions (including without limitation provisions relating to voting proxies and/or transfer restrictions and lock-up
periods), subject to the conditions and limitations in the Plan. The Administrator also has the authority to take all actions and make all determinations under the Plan, to interpret the Plan and Award Agreements and to adopt, amend and repeal Plan
administrative rules, guidelines and practices as it deems advisable. The Administrator may correct defects and ambiguities, supply omissions and reconcile inconsistencies in the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement as it deems necessary or
appropriate to administer the Plan and any Awards. The Administrator’s determinations under the Plan are in its sole discretion and will be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or any Award.
3.2 Appointment of Committees. To the extent Applicable Laws permit, the Board or the Administrator may delegate any or all of its
powers under the Plan to one or more Committees or committees of executive officers of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Board or the Administrator, as applicable, may rescind any such delegation, may abolish any such committee or
Committee and/or re-vest in itself any previously delegated authority at any time.
ARTICLE IV.
STOCK AVAILABLE FOR AWARDS
4.1 Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment under Article VIII and the terms of this Article IV, as of the Effective Date,
Awards may be made under the Plan covering up to the Overall Share Limit. Shares issued under the Plan may consist of authorized but unissued Shares, Shares purchased on the open market or treasury Shares. Shares issued under the Plan may be shares
of Class A Common Stock or shares of Class B Common Stock, as determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion and to the extent such class of Common Stock exists from time to time.
4.2 Share Counting. If all or any part of an Award expires, lapses or is terminated,
exchanged for cash, surrendered, repurchased, canceled without having been fully exercised or forfeited, in any case, in a manner that results in the Company acquiring Shares covered by the Award at a price not greater than the price (as adjusted to
reflect any Equity Restructuring) paid by the Participant for such Shares or not issuing any Shares covered by the Award, the unused Shares covered by the Award will again be available for Award grants under the Plan. Further, Shares delivered
(either by actual delivery or attestation) to the Company by a Participant to satisfy the applicable exercise or purchase price of an Award and/or to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligation (including Shares retained by the Company from
the Award being exercised or purchased and/or creating the tax obligation) will again be available for Award grants under the Plan. The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards will not count against the
Overall Share Limit. Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Shares shall again be available for future grants of Awards under the Plan pursuant to this Article IV to the extent that such return of Shares would cause
the Plan to be a “formula” plan or constitute a “material revision” or “material amendment” subject to stockholder approval under the requirements of the established stock exchange on which the Company’s
securities are traded.
4.3 Incentive Stock Option Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the maximum number
of Shares that may be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options (any or all of which may be granted with respect to Shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Shares of Class B Common Stock) as of the Effective Date shall equal
12,000,000.
4.4 Substitute Awards. In connection with an entity’s merger or consolidation with the Company or any Subsidiary
or the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s acquisition of an entity’s property or stock, the Administrator may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other stock or stock-based awards granted before such merger or consolidation
by such entity or its affiliate. Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms as the Administrator deems appropriate, notwithstanding limitations on Awards in the Plan. Substitute Awards will not count against the Overall Share Limit nor shall
Shares subject to a Substitute Award be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan as provided above, except that Shares acquired by exercise of substitute Incentive Stock Options will count against the maximum number of Shares that may
be issued pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan.
4.5 Non-Employee
Director Award Limit. The Administrator may establish compensation for non-employee Directors from time to time, subject to the limitations in the Plan. The Administrator will from time to time determine
the terms, conditions and amounts of all such non-employee Director compensation in its discretion and pursuant to the exercise of its business judgment, taking into account such factors, circumstances and
considerations as it shall deem relevant from time to time, provided that the sum of any cash compensation and the grant date fair value of Awards (as determined in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards
Codification Topic 718, or any successor thereto) granted under the Plan to a non-employee Director as compensation for services as a non-employee Director during any
fiscal year of the Company may not exceed $500,000.
ARTICLE V.
STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
5.1 General. The Administrator may grant Options or Stock Appreciation Rights to Service Providers subject to the limitations in the
Plan, including Section 9.9 with respect to Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator will determine the number of Shares covered by each Option and Stock Appreciation Right, the exercise price of each Option and Stock Appreciation Right and
the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option and Stock Appreciation Right. A Stock Appreciation Right will entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right) to
receive from the Company upon exercise of the exercisable portion of the Stock Appreciation Right an amount determined by multiplying the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of one Share on
the date of exercise over the exercise price per Share of the Stock Appreciation Right by the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, subject to any limitations of the Plan or that the Administrator may
impose and payable in cash, Shares valued at Fair Market Value or a combination of the two as the Administrator may determine or provide in the Award Agreement.
5.2 Exercise Price. The Administrator will establish each Option’s and Stock Appreciation Right’s exercise price and
specify the exercise price in the Award Agreement. The exercise price will not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the grant date of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Option or a Stock
Appreciation Right that is a Substitute Award, the exercise price per share of the Shares subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right, as applicable, may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant; provided that the
exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Sections 424 and 409A of the Code.
5.3 Duration of Options. Each Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be exercisable at such times and as specified in the Award
Agreement, provided that the term of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right will not exceed ten years.
5.4 Exercise. Options and
Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised by delivering to the Company a written notice of exercise, in a form the Administrator approves (which may be electronic), signed by the person authorized to exercise the Option or Stock Appreciation Right,
together with, as applicable, payment in full (i) as specified in Section 5.5 for the number of Shares for which the Award is exercised and (ii) as specified in Section 9.5 for any applicable taxes. Unless the Administrator
otherwise determines, an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
5.5 Payment Upon
Exercise. The exercise price of an Option must be paid in cash, wire transfer of immediately available funds or by check payable to the order of the Company or, subject to Section 10.8, any Company insider trading policy (including blackout
periods) and Applicable Laws, by:
(a) if there is a public market for Shares at the time of exercise, unless the Administrator otherwise
determines, (A) delivery (including telephonically to the extent permitted by the Company) of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the
exercise price, or (B) the Participant’s delivery to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the
exercise price; provided that such amount is paid to the Company at such time as may be required by the Administrator;
(b) delivery
(either by actual delivery or attestation) of Shares owned by the Participant valued at their Fair Market Value;
(c) surrendering Shares
then issuable upon the Option’s exercise valued at their Fair Market Value on the exercise date;
(d) to the extent permitted by the
Administrator, delivery of a promissory note or any other property that the Administrator determines is good and valuable consideration; or
(e) any combination of the above permitted payment forms (including cash, wire transfer or check).
ARTICLE VI.
RESTRICTED STOCK; RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS; DIVIDEND EQUIVALENTS
6.1 General. The Administrator may grant Restricted Stock, or the right to purchase Restricted Stock, to any Service Provider, subject
to the Company’s right to repurchase all or part of such Shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price from the Participant (or to require forfeiture of such Shares if issued at no cost) if conditions the Administrator specifies
in the Award Agreement are not satisfied before the end of the applicable restriction period or periods that the Administrator establishes for such Award. In addition, the Administrator may grant to Service Providers Restricted Stock Units, which
may be subject to vesting and forfeiture conditions during the applicable restriction period or periods, as set forth in an Award Agreement. The Administrator will determine and set forth in the Award Agreement the terms and conditions for each
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award, subject to the conditions and limitations contained in the Plan.
6.2 Restricted
Stock.
(a) Dividends. Participants holding Restricted Stock will be entitled to all ordinary cash dividends paid with respect
to such Shares, unless the Administrator provides otherwise in the Award Agreement. Unless the Administrator provides otherwise, with respect to any award of Restricted Stock, dividends which are paid to holders of Common Stock prior to vesting
shall be paid to the Participant upon vesting of the underlying Restricted Stock. In addition, unless the Administrator provides otherwise, if any dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, or consist of a dividend or distribution to holders of
Common Stock of property other than an ordinary cash dividend, the Shares or other property will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid.
(b) Stock Certificates. The Company may require that the Participant deposit in escrow with the Company (or its designee) any stock
certificates issued in respect of Restricted Stock, together with a stock power endorsed in blank.
6.3 Restricted Stock Units.
(a) Settlement. The Administrator may provide that settlement of Restricted Stock Units will occur upon or as soon as reasonably
practicable after the Restricted Stock Units vest or will instead be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at the Participant’s election, in a manner intended to comply with Section 409A.
(b) Stockholder Rights. A Participant will have no rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares subject to any Restricted Stock Unit
unless and until the Shares are delivered in settlement of the Restricted Stock Unit.
6.4 Dividend Equivalents. If the
Administrator provides, a grant of Restricted Stock Units or an Other Stock or Cash Based Award may provide a Participant with the right to receive Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be settled in cash or Shares and may be subject to the
same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the Dividend Equivalents are granted and subject to other terms and conditions as set forth in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, Dividend Equivalents with respect to an Award shall be paid to the Participant upon vesting of the underlying Award, unless the Administrator provides otherwise or unless deferred in a manner intended to comply with
Section 409A.
ARTICLE VII.
OTHER STOCK OR CASH BASED AWARDS
Other Stock or Cash Based Awards may be granted to Participants, including Awards entitling Participants to receive Shares to be delivered in
the future and including annual or other periodic or long-term cash bonus awards (whether based on specified Performance Criteria or otherwise), in each case subject to any conditions and limitations in the Plan. Such Other Stock or Cash Based
Awards will also be available as a payment form in the settlement of other Awards, as standalone payments and as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Stock or Cash Based Awards may be paid in Shares,
cash or other property, as the Administrator determines. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator will determine the terms and conditions of each Other Stock or Cash Based Award, including any purchase price, performance goal (which
may be based on the Performance Criteria), transfer restrictions and vesting conditions, which will be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII.
ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN COMMON STOCK
AND CERTAIN OTHER EVENTS
8.1 Equity Restructuring. In connection with any Equity Restructuring, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Article VIII, the Administrator will equitably adjust each outstanding Award as it deems appropriate to reflect the Equity Restructuring, which may include adjusting the number and type of securities subject to each outstanding Award and/or the
Award’s exercise price, grant price and/or applicable performance goals (if applicable), granting new Awards to Participants, and making a cash payment to Participants. The adjustments provided under this Section 8.1 will be
nondiscretionary, final and binding on the affected Participant and the Company; provided that the Administrator will determine whether an adjustment is equitable.
8.2 Corporate Transactions. In the event that the Administrator determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form
of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, repurchase, recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company, or sale or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, Change in Control, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, other similar corporate transaction
or event, other unusual or nonrecurring transaction or event affecting the Company or its financial statements or any change in any Applicable Laws or accounting principles, the Administrator, on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate,
either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event (except that action to give effect to a change in Applicable Law or accounting principles may be made within a reasonable period of time after
such change) and either automatically or upon the Participant’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to (x) prevent
dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award granted or issued under the Plan, (y) to facilitate such transaction or event or
(z) give effect to such changes in Applicable Laws or accounting principles:
(a) To provide for the cancellation of any such Award in
exchange for either an amount of cash or other property with a value equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of the vested portion of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights under the
vested portion of such Award, as applicable; provided that, if the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise or settlement of the vested portion of such Award or realization of the Participant’s rights, in any case, is equal to or
less than zero, then the Award may be terminated without payment;
(b) To provide that such Award shall vest and, to the extent applicable, be exercisable as
to all Shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Award;
(c) To provide that
such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate
adjustments as to the number and kind of Shares and/or applicable exercise or purchase price, in all cases, as determined by the Administrator;
(d) To make adjustments in the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards and/or with respect to
which Awards may be granted under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Article IV) and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price or applicable performance goals), and the
criteria included in, outstanding Awards;
(e) To replace such Award with other rights or property selected by the Administrator; and/or
(f) To provide that the Award will terminate and cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after the applicable event.
8.3 Change in Control. Except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement entered into
between the Company (or an Affiliate) and a Participant, if a Change in Control occurs and a Participant’s outstanding Awards are not continued, converted, assumed or replaced by the surviving or successor entity in such Change in Control, in
any case, as determined by the Administrator, then immediately prior to the Change in Control such outstanding Awards, to the extent not continued, converted, assumed or replaced, shall become fully vested and, as applicable, exercisable and shall
be deemed exercised or canceled in exchange for payment of the transaction consideration (net of any applicable exercise or purchase price due) immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction, and all forfeiture, repurchase and other
restrictions on such Awards shall lapse immediately prior to such transaction. If an Award vests and, as applicable, is exercised or canceled and paid out in lieu of continuation, conversion, assumption or replacement in connection with a Change in
Control, the Administrator shall notify the Participant of such vesting and any applicable deemed exercise or cancellation and payout, and the Award shall terminate upon the Change in Control.
8.4 Administrative Standstill. In the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger,
consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other extraordinary transaction or change affecting the Shares or the share price of Common Stock, including any Equity Restructuring or
any securities offering or other similar transaction, for administrative convenience, the Administrator may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award for up to sixty days before or after such transaction.
8.5 General. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no Participant will have any
rights due to any subdivision or consolidation of Shares of any class, dividend payment, increase or decrease in the number of Shares of any class or dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or other corporation. Except as
expressly provided with respect to an Equity Restructuring under Section 8.1 above or the Administrator’s action under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of Shares of any class, or securities convertible into Shares of any class, will
affect, and no adjustment will be made regarding, the number of Shares subject to an Award or the Award’s
grant or exercise price. The existence of the Plan, any Award Agreements and the Awards granted hereunder will not affect or restrict in any way the Company’s right or power to make or
authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation of the Company or sale of Company assets or
(iii) any sale or issuance of securities, including securities with rights superior to those of the Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Shares. The Administrator may treat Participants and Awards (or portions thereof)
differently under this Article VIII.

9.1 Transferability. Except as the Administrator may determine or provide in an Award Agreement or otherwise for Awards, in accordance
with Applicable Laws, Awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, or, subject to the Administrator’s
consent, pursuant to a domestic relations order, and, during the life of the Participant, will be exercisable only by the Participant. Any permitted transfer of an Award hereunder shall be without consideration, except as required by Applicable Law.
References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, will include references to a Participant’s authorized transferee that the Administrator specifically approves under Applicable Law.
9.2 Documentation. Each Award will be evidenced in an Award Agreement, as the Administrator determines. Each Award may contain terms
and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan.
9.3 Discretion. Except as the Plan otherwise provides, each Award may
be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award to a Participant need not be identical, and the Administrator need not treat Participants or Awards (or portions thereof) uniformly.
9.4 Termination of Status. The Administrator will determine how the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or any
other change or purported change in a Participant’s Service Provider status affects an Award and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, the Participant’s legal representative, conservator, guardian or
Designated Beneficiary may exercise rights under the Award, if applicable.
9.5 Withholding. Each Participant must pay the Company,
or make provision satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of, any taxes required by Applicable Law to be withheld in connection with such Participant’s Awards by the date of the event creating the tax liability. Except as set forth in an
applicable Award Agreement, the Company or one of its Subsidiaries may, to the extent Applicable Laws permit, deduct an amount sufficient to satisfy such tax obligations based on withholding rates up to the maximum individual statutory withholding
rates in the applicable jurisdiction from any payment of any kind otherwise due to a Participant. Subject to Section 10.8 and any Company insider trading policy (including blackout periods) and Applicable Laws, Participants may satisfy such tax
obligations (i) in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, by check made payable to the order of the Company, provided that the Company may limit the use of the foregoing payment forms in its discretion, , (ii) to the extent
permitted by the Administrator, in whole or in part by delivery of Shares, including Shares delivered by attestation and Shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation, valued at their fair market value on the date of delivery,
(iii) if there is a public market for Shares at the time the tax obligations are satisfied, unless the Company otherwise determines, (A) delivery (including electronically or telephonically to the extent permitted by the Company) of an
irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to satisfy the tax
obligations, or (B) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a broker acceptable to the Company to deliver promptly to the
Company cash or a check sufficient to satisfy the tax withholding; provided that such amount is paid to the Company at such time as may be required by the Administrator, (iv) to the extent permitted by the Company, delivery of a promissory note
or any other property that the Company determines is good and valuable consideration, or (v) to the extent permitted by the Company, any combination of the foregoing payment forms approved by the Administrator. If any tax withholding obligation
will be satisfied under clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence by the Company’s retention of Shares from the Award creating the tax obligation and there is a public market for Shares at the time the tax obligation is satisfied,
the Company may elect to instruct any brokerage firm determined acceptable to the Company for such purpose to sell on the applicable Participant’s behalf some or all of the Shares retained and to remit the proceeds of the sale to the Company
or its designee, and each Participant’s acceptance of an Award under the Plan will constitute the Participant’s authorization to the Company and instruction and authorization to such brokerage firm to complete the transactions described
in this sentence.
9.6 Amendment of Award; Repricing. The Administrator may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award,
including by substituting another Award of the same or a different type, changing the exercise or settlement date and converting an Incentive Stock Option to a Non-Qualified Stock Option. The
Participant’s consent to such action will be required unless (i) the Administrator determines that the action, taking into account any related action, would not materially and adversely affect the Participant’s rights under the
Award, or (ii) the change is permitted under Article VIII or pursuant to Section 10.6. Subject to Article VIII, the Administrator shall not, without the approval of the stockholders of the Company, (i) authorize the amendment of
any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right to reduce its price per share, or (ii) cancel any Option or Stock Appreciation Right in exchange for cash or another Award when the Option or Stock Appreciation Right price per share exceeds
the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares.
9.7 Conditions on Delivery of Stock. The Company will not be obligated to deliver
any Shares under the Plan or remove restrictions from Shares previously delivered under the Plan until (i) all Award conditions have been met or removed to the Company’s satisfaction, (ii) as determined by the Company, all other
legal matters regarding the issuance and delivery of such Shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, (iii) if so requested by the Company, the Participant has
granted any voting proxy and/or power of attorney in favor of a person or persons designated by the Board or the Committee and (iv) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the
Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any Applicable Laws. The Company’s inability to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which the Administrator determines is necessary to the lawful issuance and
sale of any securities, will relieve the Company of any liability for failing to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained.
9.8 Acceleration. The Administrator may at any time provide that any Award will become immediately vested and fully or partially
exercisable, free of some or all restrictions or conditions, or otherwise fully or partially realizable.
9.9 Additional Terms of
Incentive Stock Options. The Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options only to employees of the Company, any of its present or future parent or subsidiary corporations, as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code,
respectively, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options under the Code. If an Incentive Stock Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Stockholder, the exercise price will not be less than 110% of
the Fair Market Value on the Option’s grant date, and the term of the Option will not exceed five years. All
Incentive Stock Options will be subject to and construed consistently with Section 422 of the Code. By accepting an Incentive Stock Option, the Participant agrees to give prompt notice to
the Company of dispositions or other transfers (other than in connection with a Change in Control) of Shares acquired under the Option made within (i) two years from the grant date of the Option or (ii) one year after the transfer of such
Shares to the Participant, specifying the date of the disposition or other transfer and the amount the Participant realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, in such disposition or other transfer. Neither
the Company nor the Administrator will be liable to a Participant, or any other party, if an Incentive Stock Option fails or ceases to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code. Any Incentive Stock Option
or portion thereof that fails to qualify as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code for any reason, including becoming exercisable with respect to Shares having a fair market value exceeding the $100,000 limitation
under Treasury Regulation Section 1.422-4, will be a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
9.10 Cash Settlement. Without limiting the generality of any other provision of the Plan, the Administrator may provide, in an Award Agreement
or subsequent to the grant of an Award, in its discretion, that any Award may be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof.
ARTICLE X.
MISCELLANEOUS
10.1 No
Right to Employment or Other Status. No person will have any claim or right to be granted an Award, and the grant of an Award will not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company and its Subsidiaries expressly reserve the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate their respective relationships with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan or any
Award, except as expressly provided in an Award Agreement.
10.2 No Rights as Stockholder; Certificates. Subject to the Award
Agreement, no Participant or Designated Beneficiary will have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed under an Award until becoming the record holder of such Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan,
unless the Administrator otherwise determines or Applicable Laws require, the Company will not be required to deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award and instead such Shares may be recorded in
the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator). The Company may place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan that the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to comply with Applicable
Laws.
10.3 Effective Date and Term of Plan. The Plan (as amended and restated) will become effective on the date on it is approved
by the Company’s stockholders (the “Effective Date”) and will remain in effect until terminated by the Administrator in accordance with the Plan. No Awards may be granted under the Plan during any suspension period or
after Plan termination. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, an Incentive Stock Option may not be granted under the Plan after ten years from the earlier of (i) the date the Board adopted the Plan or (ii) the date the
Company’s stockholders approved the Plan, but Awards previously granted may extend beyond that date in accordance with the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Plan is not approved by the Company’s
stockholders, the Plan will not become effective, no Awards will be granted under the Plan, and the Original Plan will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
10.4 Amendment of Plan. The Administrator may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided that no amendment, other than
an increase to the Overall Share Limit, may materially and adversely affect any Award outstanding at the time of such amendment without the affected Participant’s consent. Awards outstanding at the time of any Plan suspension or termination
will continue to be governed by the Plan and the Award Agreement, as in effect before such suspension or termination. The Board will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Laws.
10.5 Provisions for Foreign Participants. The Administrator may modify Awards granted
to Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish subplans or procedures under the Plan to address differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax,
securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters.
10.6 Section 409A.
(a) General. The Company intends that all Awards be structured to comply with, or be exempt from, Section 409A, such that no
adverse tax consequences, interest or penalties under Section 409A apply. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or any Award Agreement to the contrary, the Administrator may, without a Participant’s consent, amend this Plan or Awards,
adopt policies and procedures or take any other actions (including amendments, policies, procedures and retroactive actions) as are necessary or appropriate to preserve the intended tax treatment of Awards, including any such actions intended to
(A) exempt this Plan or any Award from Section 409A, or (B) comply with Section 409A, including regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority that may be issued after an Award’s grant date.
The Company makes no representations or warranties as to an Award’s tax treatment under Section 409A or otherwise. The Company will have no obligation under this Section 10.6 or otherwise to avoid the taxes, penalties or interest
under Section 409A with respect to any Award and will have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute noncompliant “nonqualified deferred
compensation” subject to taxes, penalties or interest under Section 409A.
(b) Separation from Service. If an Award
constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A, any payment or settlement of such Award upon a termination of a Participant’s Service Provider relationship will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes
under Section 409A, be made only upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (within the meaning of Section 409A), whether such “separation from service” occurs upon or after the termination of the
Participant’s Service Provider relationship. For purposes of this Plan or any Award Agreement relating to any such payments or benefits, references to a “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms means a
“separation from service.” Furthermore, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under the Plan that may be made in installments shall be
treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.
(c) Payments to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision in the Plan or any Award Agreement, any payment(s) of “nonqualified deferred compensation” required to be made under an Award subject to Section 409A to a “specified employee” (as defined under
Section 409A and as the Administrator determines) due to his or her “separation from service” will, to the extent necessary to avoid taxes under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, be delayed for the six-month period immediately following such “separation from service” (or, if earlier, until the specified employee’s death) and will instead be paid (as set forth in the Award Agreement) on the
day immediately following such six-month period or as soon as administratively practicable thereafter (without interest). Any payments of “nonqualified deferred compensation” under such Award
payable more than six months following the Participant’s “separation from service” will be paid at the time or times the payments are otherwise scheduled to be made.
10.7 Limitations on Liability. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the
Plan, and to the extent allowable pursuant to Applicable Law and the Company’s charter and bylaws, no individual acting as a director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary will be liable to any Participant, former
Participant, spouse, beneficiary or any other person for any claim, loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with the Plan or any Award, and such individual will not be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or
other instrument executed in his or her capacity as an Administrator, director, officer, other employee or agent of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, other employee and agent of the
Company or any Subsidiary that has been or will be granted or delegated any duty or power relating to the Plan’s administration or interpretation, against any cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) or liability (including any sum
paid in settlement of a claim with the Administrator’s approval) arising from any act or omission concerning this Plan unless arising from such person’s own fraud or bad faith.
10.8 Lock-Up Period. The Company may, at the request of any underwriter representative or
otherwise, in connection with registering the offering of any Company securities under the Securities Act, prohibit Participants from, directly or indirectly, selling or otherwise transferring any Shares or other Company securities during a period
of up to one hundred eighty days following the effective date of a Company registration statement filed under the Securities Act, or such longer period as determined by the underwriter.
10.9 Data Privacy. As a condition for receiving any Award, each Participant explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection,
use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of personal data as described in this paragraph by and among the Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates exclusively for implementing, administering and managing the Participant’s
participation in the Plan. The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may hold certain personal information about a Participant, including the Participant’s name, address and telephone number; birthdate; social security number, insurance
number or other identification number; salary; nationality; job title(s); any Shares held in the Company or its Subsidiaries and affiliates; and Award details, to implement, manage and administer the Plan and Awards (the
“Data”). The Company and its Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data amongst themselves as necessary to implement, administer and manage a Participant’s participation in the Plan, and the Company and its
Subsidiaries and affiliates may transfer the Data to third parties assisting the Company with Plan implementation, administration and management. These recipients may be located in the Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and the
Participant’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the recipients’ country. By accepting an Award, each Participant authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in
electronic or other form, to implement, administer and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan, including any required Data transfer to a broker or other third party with whom the Company or the Participant may elect to deposit any
Shares. The Data related to a Participant will be held only as long as necessary to implement, administer, and manage the Participant’s participation in the Plan. A Participant may, at any time, view the Data that the Company and its
Subsidiaries and affiliates hold regarding such Participant, request additional information about the storage and processing of the Data regarding such Participant, recommend any necessary corrections to the Data regarding the Participant or refuse
or withdraw the consents in this Section 10.9 in writing, without cost, by contacting the local human resources representative. The Company may cancel a Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan and, in the Administrator’s
discretion, the Participant may forfeit any outstanding Awards if the Participant refuses or withdraws the consents in this Section 10.9. For more information on the consequences of refusing or withdrawing consent, Participants may contact
their local human resources representative.
10.10 Severability. If any portion of the Plan or any action taken under it is held
illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provisions had been excluded, and the illegal or invalid action
will be null and void.
10.11 Governing Documents. If any contradiction occurs between the Plan and any Award
Agreement or other written agreement between a Participant and the Company (or any Subsidiary) that the Administrator has approved, the Plan will govern, unless it is expressly specified in such Award Agreement or other written document that a
specific provision of the Plan will not apply. In addition, the Awards granted and Shares issuable and issued pursuant to this Plan are subject to Section 4 of the Charter regarding the conversion of Shares of Class B Common Stock to
Class A Common Stock.
10.12 Governing Law. The Plan and all Awards will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the
laws of the State of Delaware, disregarding any state’s choice-of-law principles requiring the application of a jurisdiction’s laws other than the State of
Delaware.
10.13 Claw-back Provisions. All Awards (including, without limitation, any proceeds, gains or other economic benefit
actually or constructively received by Participant upon any receipt or exercise of any Award or upon the receipt or sale of any Shares underlying the Award) shall be subject to the provisions of any clawback policy implemented by the Company,
including, without limitation, the Company’s Policy for Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation and any other clawback policy adopted to comply with Applicable Laws, as and to the extent set forth in such clawback policy or the Award
Agreement.
10.14 Titles and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only
and, if any conflict, the Plan’s text, rather than such titles or headings, will control.
10.15 Conformity to Applicable
Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan is intended to conform to the extent necessary with Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Plan and all Awards will be administered only in conformance with Applicable
Laws. To the extent Applicable Laws permit, the Plan and all Award Agreements will be deemed amended as necessary to conform to Applicable Laws.
10.16 Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment under the Plan will be taken into account in determining any benefits under any
pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except as expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.
10.17 Broker-Assisted Sales. In the event of a broker-assisted sale of Shares in connection with the payment of amounts owed by a
Participant under or with respect to the Plan or Awards, including amounts to be paid under the final sentence of Section 9.5: (a) any Shares to be sold through the broker-assisted sale will be sold on the day the payment first becomes due, or
as soon thereafter as practicable; (b) such Shares may be sold as part of a block trade with other Participants in the Plan in which all participants receive an average price; (c) the applicable Participant will be responsible for all
broker’s fees and other costs of sale, and by accepting an Award, each Participant agrees to indemnify and hold the Company and its Subsidiaries harmless from any losses, costs, damages or expenses relating to any such sale; (d) to the
extent the Company, its Subsidiaries or their designees receives proceeds of such sale that exceed the amount owed, the Company or its Subsidiary will pay such excess in cash to the applicable Participant as soon as reasonably practicable;
(e) the Company, its Subsidiaries and their designees are under no obligation to arrange for such sale at any particular price; and (f) in the event the proceeds of such sale are insufficient to satisfy the Participant’s applicable
obligation, the Participant may be required to pay immediately upon demand to the Company or its designee an amount in cash sufficient to satisfy any remaining portion of the Participant’s obligation.
10.18 Arbitration. Any and all claims, grievances, demands, controversies, causes of
action or disputes of any nature whatsoever (collectively, “Claims”), arising out of, in connection with, or in relation to this Plan, or Awards granted hereunder, or the arbitrability of any Claims under this Plan, will be
resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the Los Angeles, California offices of JAMS/Endispute in accordance with the then-existing JAMS/Endispute Arbitration Rules applicable to employment agreements. The Participant and the
Company will select a mutually acceptable neutral arbitrator from the panel of arbitrators serving with any of JAMS/Endispute’s offices, but in the event the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, the Administrator of JAMS/Endispute will
appoint an arbitrator from such panel (the arbitrator so selected or appointed, the “Arbitrator”). The Arbitrator may provide all appropriate remedies (at law and equity) or judgments that could be awarded by a court of law
in Delaware, and that, upon good cause shown, the Arbitrator will afford the parties adequate discovery, including deposition discovery. Except as provided herein, the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation, enforcement and all
actions pursuant to this Section 10.18. The Arbitrator will be bound by and will strictly enforce the terms of this Section 10.18 and may not limit, expand or otherwise modify its terms. The Arbitrator will make a good faith effort to
apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the state of Delaware, or federal law, or both, as applicable, without reference to its conflicts of laws provisions. The Arbitrator is without jurisdiction to apply any different
substantive law. The Arbitrator will be bound to honor claims of privilege or work-product doctrine recognized at law, but the Arbitrator will have the discretion to determine whether any such claim of privilege or work product doctrine applies. The
Arbitrator will render an award and a written, reasoned opinion in support thereof. The Arbitrator will have power and authority to award any appropriate remedy (in law or equity) or judgment that could be awarded by a court of law in Delaware,
which may include reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party. The award rendered by arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties to arbitration, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. Neither a party nor the Arbitrator will disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of all parties. Adherence to this dispute resolution process will not limit the
parties’ right to obtain any provisional remedy, including, without limitation, injunctive or similar relief, from any court of competent jurisdiction as may be necessary to protect their rights and interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, this dispute resolution procedure is intended to be the exclusive method of resolving any Claims arising out of or relating to the Plan. Subject to the Arbitrator’s award, the Company will pay fees and expenses with respect to this
dispute resolution process and any action related thereto.
10.19 [Reserved].

described in subsection (a), (b) or (c) with respect to such Award (or portion thereof) shall only constitute a Change in Control for purposes of the payment timing of such Award if such transaction also constitutes a “change in
control event,” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5).
The
Administrator shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change in Control has occurred pursuant to the above definition, the date of the occurrence of such Change in Control
and any incidental matters relating thereto; provided that any exercise of authority in conjunction with a determination of whether a Change in Control is a “change in control event” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) shall be consistent with such regulation.

that each member of the Committee will be, at the time the Committee takes any action with respect to an Award that is subject to Rule 16b-3, a “non-employee
director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3; however, a Committee member’s failure to qualify as a “non-employee director” within the meaning of

reported in The Wall Street Journal or another source the Administrator deems reliable; (ii) if the Common Stock is not traded on a stock exchange but is quoted on a national market or other quotation system, the closing sales price on such
