incentive stock options; stock appreciation rights ("SARs"); restricted shares;

(collectively, the "Awards"). Subject to adjustment for changes in
capitalization in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Plan, the number of
shares of Company common stock initially available under the 2021 Plan, other
than substitute awards in a corporate transaction, is equal to the sum of (i)
3,600,000 shares of common stock and (ii) the number of shares of common stock
that remain available for issuance under the 2017 Plan as of the effective date

share with respect to which any Award denominated in shares is granted under the
2021 Plan will reduce the aggregate number of shares available under the 2021
Plan by one. Upon exercise of a stock-settled SAR, each share with respect to

number of shares actually delivered upon settlement of such stock-settled SAR.
