<strong>Aeris</strong> Equity Incentive Plan<br />
The Equity Incentive Plan is designed to provide an incentive to the Company's employees and executive Directors to<br />
achieve the long term objectives of the Company and to attract employees of experience and ability. The Equity Incentive<br />
Plan provides the Company with the ability to grant options or performance rights (each an Award). An Award is an<br />
entitlement to receive a share upon satisfaction of the applicable vesting or exercise conditions, the exercise (or deemed<br />
exercise) of the Award and the payment of an exercise price (if applicable).<br />
