PROXY STATEMENT
for
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
to be Held August 27, 2024
The enclosed proxy (the “Proxy”)
is being solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Intrusion Inc. (the “Company,” “we,”
“us” or “our”) for use at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Meeting”) to be held on Thursday,
August 27, 2024 at 9:00 a.m., Central Time. Proxies, together with copies of this Proxy Statement and a copy of the Company’s Annual
Report for 2023, are being mailed on or about July 15, 2024, to stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Meeting. The Meeting will
be held entirely online live via audio webcast. You will be able to attend the virtual Meeting live, vote electronically, and submit your
questions during the Annual Meeting via live webcast by visiting: www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/INTZ2024 and entering your 16-digit
control number included in your Notice (as defined below), on your proxy card, or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.
Execution and return of the
enclosed Proxy will not affect a stockholder’s right to attend the virtual Meeting and to vote electronically. Any stockholder executing
a Proxy retains the right to revoke such proxy at any time prior to exercise at the virtual Meeting. A Proxy may be revoked by delivery
of written notice of revocation to the Secretary of the Company, by execution and delivery of a later Proxy or by voting the shares electronically
at the virtual Meeting. If you attend the Meeting and vote electronically, your proxy will be revoked automatically and only your vote
at the Meeting will be counted. Virtually attending the Annual Meeting alone, however, will not revoke your proxy unless you specifically
request your proxy to be revoked. If you hold shares through a broker, bank or other agent, you must contact that broker, bank or other
agent directly to revoke any prior voting instructions. A Proxy, when executed and not revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions
thereon. In the absence of specific instructions, Proxies will be voted by those named in the Proxy “FOR” the election as
directors of those nominees named in the Proxy Statement, “FOR” the approval of each of the other proposals described in this
Proxy Statement, and in accordance with their best judgment on all other matters that may properly come before the Meeting.
The enclosed form of Proxy
provides a method for stockholders to withhold authority to vote for any one or more of the nominees for director while granting authority
to vote for the remaining nominees. The names of all nominees are listed on the Proxy. If you wish to grant authority to vote for all
nominees, check the box marked “FOR.” If you wish to withhold authority to vote for all nominees, check the box marked “WITHHOLD.”
If you wish your shares to be voted for some nominees and not for one or more of the others, check the box marked “FOR” and
indicate the name(s) of the nominee(s) for whom you are withholding the authority to vote by writing the name(s) of such nominee(s) on
the Proxy in the space provided.
RECORD DATE AND VOTING SECURITIES
Only stockholders of record
at the close of business on July 3, 2024, are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. The stock transfer books of the Company
will remain open between the record date and the date of the Meeting. A list of stockholders eligible to vote at the Meeting will be
available for review during our regular business hours at our headquarters in Plano, Texas, for the ten days prior to the date of the
Meeting for any purpose related to the Annual Meeting. The list of stockholders will also be available during the Meeting through the
Annual Meeting website for those stockholders who choose to attend. On the record date, the Company had 5,436,629 outstanding shares
of Common Stock, $0.01 par value (the “Common Stock”) held of record by 102 holders.
QUORUM AND VOTING
The presence at the virtual
Meeting, in person or by Proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding is necessary to constitute a quorum.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock held on each matter to be voted on at the Meeting including
the election of directors. All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Meeting, who will separately tabulate
affirmative and negative votes, abstentions, and broker non-votes. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as present for purposes
of determining the presence or absence of a quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions will be counted towards the tabulations
of votes cast on matters presented at the Meeting and will have the same effect as negative votes (other than the election of directors)
whereas broker non-votes will not be counted for purposes of determining whether a matter has been approved.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
Assuming the presence of
a quorum, the following paragraphs describe the vote required by the stockholders of record to approve each of the proposals set forth
in this Proxy Statement.
| · | Proposal One. The five (5) nominees receiving the greatest number of votes
of the shares of Common Stock outstanding present in person or represented by Proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote shall be deemed

at the Meeting. |
| | |
| · | Proposal Two. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding
present in person or represented by Proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote is required for the ratification of the appointment of Whitley
Penn LLP as independent auditors. |

outstanding present in person or represented by Proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote is required for an amendment to the 2021 Equity

Director Biographies
Below is a brief account of
the business experience of each of the director nominees and executive officers.
Anthony Scott was
appointed as our President and Chief Executive Officer on November 11, 2021, and as a director on January 21, 2022. Mr. Scott’s
prior engagements demonstrate many years of executive leadership and cybersecurity experience, including serving as Federal Chief Information
Officer for the U.S. government, Chief Information Officer for multi-billion corporations such as VMware, Microsoft and The Walt Disney
Company, as well as a private consultant helping organizations implement effective world class solutions for cybersecurity, IT governance
and crisis management. Prior to his appointment, Scott had been serving as the founder and CEO of the Tony Scott Group, LLC., a Washington
DC and Silicon Valley-based consulting and venture capital firm focused on early-stage cybersecurity and privacy technologies. Before
starting the Tony Scott Group in 2017, Scott was appointed by President Obama as the Federal Chief Information Officer for the U.S. Government
in February 2015. In that role, he had oversight, budget and management responsibilities for the more than $85 billion budget that the
Federal Government annually spends on IT. He and his team managed the government-wide response plan after the Office of Program Management
cybersecurity incident, which prompted the Cybersecurity Sprint and Implementation Plan (CSIP) that dramatically improved the information
systems security posture of the Federal Government. He also created the first “State of IT” report at the end of the Obama
administration, collaborating with members of Congress to create several legislative proposals to improve IT funding within the Federal
Government. Scott is a renowned expert on providing public and private sector executive insights concerning matters such as digital transformation,
cloud adoption, machine learning, AI, cybersecurity, governance, open data, and workforce diversity, and he has appeared frequently before
Congress as well as at numerous industry forums. Prior to working at the Federal Government, Scott was the CIO at VMware, Microsoft,
and The Walt Disney Company, as well as Chief Technology Officer at General Motors, and he has also held senior executive positions at
Bristol Myers Squibb, Price Waterhouse, Sun Microsystems and Marriott. Scott holds a Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of
San Francisco in Information Systems Management and a Juris Doctorate (law) degree from Santa Clara University. Mr. Scott’s many
years in executive leadership roles, including serving for governmental agencies, combined with his IT and cybersecurity experience make
him uniquely qualified to serve on our board and as our president and chief executive officer.

selected to serve as our Board Chair and on our Compensation Committee because of his standing as a financial expert and corporate governance

Board Role in Risk Oversight
and Management
The Board has an active role
in the oversight and management of the Company’s risks and carries out its role directly and through Board committees. The Board’s
direct role in the Company’s risk management process includes regular or periodic receipt and discussion of reports from management
and the Company’s inside and outside counsel and advisers on areas of material risk to the Company, including operational, strategic,
financial, legal, and regulatory risks.
While overall enterprise-wide
risk management is ultimately the responsibility of the Board, the Audit Committee is delegated with the authority to oversee the identifying,
assessing, and monitoring of such risks, delegating authority for discrete risk management oversight to the appropriate committees of
the Board or to a Risk Oversight sub-committee of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee shall report regularly to the Board at-large
on its activities in risk oversight, pass along reports from any Committees or sub-committees with oversight authority, and make recommendations
for any changes, modifications, improvements, or expansions of the Company’s risk assessment and management policies and procedures.
The Board has also addressed
risk through the adoption of corporate policies. The Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which the Company adopted
on September 14, 2020, as amended on March 16, 2022 (the “Code”), which is designed to ensure that directors, officers, and
employees of the Company are aware of their legal and ethical responsibilities and conduct the Company’s business in a consistently
legal and ethical manner and to avoid instances of insider trading. The Code covers areas of professional conduct that include conflicts
of interest, fair dealing and the strict adherence to all laws and regulations applicable to the conduct of the Company’s business.
The Company has not adopted
any practices or policies regarding the ability of our employees (including officers) or Directors, or any of their designees, to purchase
financial instruments (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, and exchange funds), or otherwise engage
in transactions, that hedge or offset, or are designed to hedge or offset, any decrease in the market value of our Common Stock either
granted to the employee or director by the Company as part of the compensation of the employee or director; or held, directly or indirectly,
by the employee or director.
Committees
The Board has established
Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Governance, and Disclosure Committees to devote attention to specific subjects and to assist it
in the discharge of its responsibilities. The functions of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Governance
Committee, and Disclosure Committee are described below.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Audit Committee oversees
the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements
and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee
reviewed the audited financial statements in the Annual Report with management including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability,
of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.
The Audit Committee has discussed
with Whitley Penn LLP, the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm to the Company, who are responsible for expressing an opinion
on the conformity of those audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles, the matters required to be discussed
by PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees, and such other matters as are required to be discussed with the
Audit Committee under generally accepted auditing standards. In addition, the Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures
and the letter from Whitley Penn LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Whitley Penn LLP’s communications
with the Audit committee concerning independence, and the Audit Committee has discussed with Whitley Penn LLP its independence.
The Audit Committee discussed
with Whitley Penn LLP the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Audit Committee meets with Whitley Penn LLP, with and without management
present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality
of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee held four meetings during fiscal year 2023.
In reliance on the reviews
and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board (and the Board has approved) that the audited financial
statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee
and the Board have also recommended, subject to stockholder ratification, the selection of Whitley Penn LLP as the Company’s Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm.

Base Salary
The salaries of the executive officers,
including the Chief Executive Officer, are determined annually by the Compensation Committee with reference to the following without specific
weighting:
| · | salaries paid to executives with similar responsibilities at companies of a comparable size and sales volume,
primarily in the high technology industry; |
| · | each officer’s performance; and |
| · | the Company’s overall financial results. |
The Compensation Committee
believes that other companies likely compete with the Company for executive talent and that the Company must offer salaries within a competitive
market range to attract and retain talented executives. However, the Compensation Committee manages salaries for the executive group as
a whole in a conservative fashion in order to place more emphasis on incentive compensation.
Bonus
To reinforce the attainment
of corporate objectives, the Compensation Committee believes that a substantial portion of the potential annual compensation of each executive
officer should be in the form of short-term, variable incentive pay. The incentive cash bonus program for executives is established annually
by the Compensation Committee based upon the Company’s achievement of sales and/or earnings targets established at the beginning
of the fiscal year. The incentive plan for executives requires a threshold level of Company financial performance before any incentives
are awarded. Once the threshold objective for sales and/or earnings for a fiscal year is reached, specific formulas are in place to calculate
the actual incentive payment for each executive for such year.
Bonuses Awarded
In fiscal years 2023 and
2022, the Company did not achieve its targeted sales and/or earnings goals and did not reach its threshold level of sales and/or earnings
for bonuses. Per the employee incentive plan, the Company did not award full-time, non-commissioned employees a bonus. This included our
current executive officers.
Stock Option and Equity Incentive Programs
The goal of the Company’s
short- and long-term equity-based incentive awards is to align the interests of executive officers with the Company’s stockholders.
The Compensation Committee determines the value allocated to equity-based incentives according to each executive’s position within
the Company, individual performance, contributions to achievement of corporate objectives and related factors, and grants equity awards
to create a meaningful opportunity for stock ownership. The Board approves short- and long-term incentives in the form of cash, stock
option grants, restricted stock issuances, and performance stock unit awards when performance meets or exceed expectations. However, such
incentive awards are never made during black-out periods or at such times when the Company is in possession material, non-public information.
Equity Awards Granted
The Company grants equity
awards to the executive officers and key employees in order to retain their services and increase their performance potential to help
attain long-term goals of the Company. However, there has been no set formula for the granting of awards to individual executives or employees.
In 2023 and 2022, the Company has granted stock options to purchase 31,420 and 16,675 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, respectively.
Of these amounts, options to purchase 14.441 and 2,250 shares have been granted to the Named Executive Officers or the Board of Directors
during 2023 and 2022. During fiscal year 2023 and 2022, the Company issued no restricted stock to the Named Executive Officers.
Timing of Awards
Equity awards to executive
officers and other key employees are typically granted annually in conjunction with the review of the individual’s performance.
This review typically takes place in January. Grants to newly hired employees are typically effective at the first Compensation Committee
meeting following the employee’s first day of employment, after approval by the committee. The exercise price of all stock options
is set at the then current day’s closing price of the Common Stock.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
The Company does not have
any standard stock ownership guidelines. However, all executives are encouraged to retain stock options and other shares that they directly
own.
Perquisites
The Company limits the perquisites
that are made available to executive officers. The Company does not have a pension program for executives or employees.
The perquisites provided
by the Company in fiscal year 2023 are as follows. All employees who participated in the Company’s 401(k) plan may receive up to
$2,700 in matching funds. All of the Named Executive Officers who participated in the 401(k) plan received matching funds. The health
and life insurance plans are the same for all employees. In general, all employees and dependents base health premiums are paid 72% by
Intrusion and 28% by the employees. All employees are also provided life insurance up to $50,000. This policy is the same for all employees,
including executive officers.
Employment Agreements
Neither the Company nor its
subsidiaries have any employment agreements with any of its Named Executive Officers other than an Executive Employment Agreement, dated
November 11, 2021, between the Company and Anthony Scott. The material terms of this Employment Agreement are as follows: a $425,000 annual
cash salary; a one-time restricted stock award equivalent to $75,000 of common stock based on the closing price as of November 11, 2021;
the ability to earn up to two times his annual salary (in cash or a combination of cash and stock option awards) under the terms of the
Company’s existing executive incentive based bonus plan; the ability to participate in the Company’s long-term incentive plan;
as well as other reasonable and customary benefits provided by the Company. In addition, the Employment Agreement requires that the Board
nominate Mr. Scott for election as a director at the Annual Meeting.
On March 27, 2023, the Board
approved an amendment to the Executive Employment Agreement. The amendment effected a change to Mr. Scott’s compensation package
(the “Amendment”). The Amendment provided for a temporary 50% reduction of Mr. Scott’s annualized base salary during
the period beginning March 24, 2023, to September 22, 2023, equal to $106,250 and granted an award of options to purchase 6,586 shares
of Common Stock of Intrusion, Inc. The options vest one-year from the date of the award and state an exercise price of $24.20 per share.
Long-term Incentive Plan
No long-term incentive has been awarded in 2023
or 2022.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
Overview of Compensation and Procedures
Similarly, to the setting
of executive compensation, the Compensation Committee reviews the level of compensation of non-employee Directors on an annual basis.
The Company has historically used data from a number of different sources to determine the compensation for non-employee Directors. Some
examples of the data used include publicly available data describing director compensation in peer companies and survey data collected
by the Company.
We compensate non-employee
members of the Board through a mixture of cash and equity-based compensation. Each non-employee Director currently receives an annual
cash retainer fee of $37,500. In addition, our Chairman receives an annual fee of $40,000 for his service, the Audit Committee Chair receives
an additional annual fee of $18,000, the Compensation Committee Chair receives an additional annual fee of $12,500 and the Nominating
and Governance Chair receives an additional $7,500 for their service. During 2023 the Board voluntarily exchanged a portion of their annual
fees for stock options. Each non-employee Director is also reimbursed for all reasonable expenses incurred in attending such meetings.
Directors who are also full-time employees of the Company receive no additional compensation for serving as directors. During 2023, Mr.
Scott, our President and Chief Executive Officer, served on the current Board with no additional compensation.
Since the 2021 Annual Meeting
of Stockholders, it has been the Company’s practice to provide each non-employee director with restricted stock awards of the Company’s
Common Stock at the Annual Meeting in an amount equal to $70,000 determined by the closing price of the Company’s stock on the
day of such award. These awards cliff vest on the one-year anniversary of the award.

NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS
In nominating and evaluating candidates to determine
if they are qualified to become Board members, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers a number of attributes, including:
| · | personal and professional character, integrity, ethics and values, without regard to race, religion, gender or national origin; |
| · | general business experience and leadership profile, including experience in corporate management, such as serving as an officer or
former officer of a publicly held company, or experience as a board member of another publicly held company; |
| · | strategic planning abilities and experience; |
| · | aptitude in accounting and finance; |
| · | expertise in domestic and international markets; |
| · | experience in the network security or telecommunications industry; |
| · | understanding of relevant technologies; |
| · | academic expertise in an area of the Company’s operations; |
| · | communications and interpersonal skills; and |
| · | practical and mature business judgment. |
The Nominating and Governance
Committee also evaluates Board members’ and nominees’ service on the boards of other public companies. These directors also
evaluate candidates identified by their personal contacts and other Board members.
The Nominating and Governance
Committee will also consider nominees proposed by stockholders. Although the Company has no formal policy regarding stockholder nominees,
stockholder nominees are viewed in substantially the same manner as other nominees. The consideration of any candidate for director will
be based on the assessment of the individual’s background, skills and abilities, and if such characteristics qualify the individual
to fulfill the needs of the Board at that time. To recommend a prospective nominee for consideration, stockholders should timely submit
the candidate’s name and qualifications to the Company’s Secretary in writing at 101 East Park Blvd., Suite 1200, Plano, TX
75074. An amendment to the Company’s bylaws in 2023 did provide for changes to the procedures by which stockholders may recommend
nominees to the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee annually reviews the requisite skills and characteristics of Board members,
as well as the composition of the Board as a whole. This assessment includes a consideration of independence, diversity, skills, experience,
and industry backgrounds in the context of the needs of the Board and the Company. Directors are expected to exemplify the highest standards
of personal and professional integrity and to constructively challenge management through their active participation and questioning.
Communication with the Board
The Company does not have
formal procedures for stockholder communication with the Board. Any matter intended for the Board, or for any individual member or members
of the Board, should be directed to the Company’s Secretary at the address of the Company indicated above, with a request to forward
the same to the intended recipient. In general, all stockholder communication delivered to the Company’s Secretary for forwarding
to the Board or specified Board members will be forwarded in accordance with the stockholder’s instructions, unless the Secretary
believes the question or issue may be addressed adequately by the Company’s investor relations department. However, the Secretary
reserves the right to not forward to Board members any abusive, threatening or otherwise inappropriate materials. The Board believes that
more formal procedures are not necessary to permit shareholders adequate access to its members.
Policy Regarding Board Attendance at Stockholders Meetings
Although it has no formal
policy requiring attendance, the Company encourages all directors to attend all meetings of stockholders. All of the then serving members
of the Board attended the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the 2024 Special Meeting of Stockholders.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
All of the Company’s
directors and employees are required to abide by the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which the Company adopted on
September 14, 2020, as amended on March 16, 2022 (the “Code”) to ensure that the Company’s business is conducted in
a consistently legal and ethical manner and to avoid instances of insider trading. The Code covers areas of professional conduct that
include conflicts of interest, fair dealing and the strict adherence to all laws and regulations applicable to the conduct of the Company’s
business. The full text of the Code is published on the Company’s website under the investor relations tab at www.intrusion.com.
The Company intends to disclose future amendments to, or waivers from, certain provisions of the Codes of Ethics on the Company’s
website within four business days following the date of such amendment or waiver. Upon the written request of any stockholder, the Company
will furnish, without charge, a copy of the Code. This request should be directed to the Company’s Secretary at 101 East Park Blvd.,
Suite 1200, Plano, TX 75074.
PROPOSAL TWO

OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
The Board has appointed Whitley
Penn LLP to serve as independent auditors of the Company and to audit its consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2023, subject
to ratification by the Company’s stockholders at the Meeting. Whitley Penn LLP has served as the Company’s Independent Registered
Public Accounting Firm since July 2009. To the knowledge of management of the Company, neither such firm nor any of its members has any

that its stockholders should be entitled to a voice in this regard and as a matter of good corporate practice, the Board is seeking ratification
of this appointment. If the appointment is not ratified, the Board must then determine whether to appoint other auditors prior to the
end of the current fiscal year. In such a case, the opinions of stockholders will be taken into consideration.
Fees Paid to Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm
The Audit Committee has reviewed the following
audit and non-audit fees the Company has paid to Whitley Penn LLP for 2022 and 2023 for purposes of considering whether such fees are
compatible with maintaining the auditor’s independence. The policy of the Audit Committee is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit
services performed by Whitley Penn LLP before the services are performed, including all the services described below under “Audit-Related
Fees,” “Tax Fees” and “All Other Fees” below.
Audit Fees. Fees billed
for service rendered by our Accounting Firm for the reviews of Forms 10-Q and for the audit of the consolidated financial statements of
the Company were $186,685 for 2022 and $216,941 for 2023. Fees billed for the services rendered by our Accounting Firm for the review
of our registration statements for our offerings of Common Stock and due diligence associated with our at-the-market program was $32,500
in 2022 and $61,860 in 2023.
Audited-Related Fees.
Aggregate fees billed for all audit-related services rendered by our Accounting Firm were $0 for 2022 and 2023.
Tax Fees. Aggregate
fees billed for permissible tax services rendered by our Accounting Firm consisted of $12,550 for 2022 and $2,000 for 2023. These amounts
include tax strategy services, preparation of sales tax returns, preparation of federal and state income tax returns, preparation of property
tax and franchise tax returns and international tax issues.
All Other Fees. Aggregate
fees billed for all other services rendered by our Accounting Firm consisted of $0 for 2022 and 2023.
Representatives of Whitley
Penn LLP are expected to be in attendance at the Meeting and will be afforded the opportunity to make a statement. The representatives
will also be available to respond to appropriate questions.
The enclosed Proxy will be
voted as specified, but if no specification is made, it will be voted “FOR” the adoption of the resolution of ratification.
The Board recommends a
vote “FOR” this proposal.
PROPOSAL THREE
APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE
INTRUSION INC. 2021 OMNBUS INCENTIVE
PLAN
Overview
At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are also being
asked to approve an amendment to the Amended 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”) to increase the number of
shares authorized to use post reverse stock split from 125,000 shares to the pre reverse stock split authorized plan amount of 2,500,000
shares. The purpose of the 2021 Equity Plan is to advance the interests of Intrusion and its stockholders by enabling Intrusion and its
subsidiaries to attract and retain qualified individuals to perform services, to provide incentive compensation for such individuals in
a form that is linked to the growth and profitability of Intrusion and increases in stockholder value, and to provide opportunities for
equity participation that align the interests of recipients with those of its stockholders.
The Intrusion Inc. 2021 Equity Plan was originally
adopted and became effective on March 25, 2021, which was the date of its adoption by the Board, subject to the approval by the stockholders
of the Company. On March 27, 2022, the Board adopted an amendment to the 2021 Equity Plan, which effected the following material changes:
(1) permitted the Compensation Committee to recognize the existence of special circumstances with the approval of the Board of Directors;
and, (2) under such special circumstances, issue awards not otherwise subject to the attainment of a performance criteria to vest during
a period less than one (1) year.
The 2021 Equity Plan, as amended, permits the
Board, or a committee or subcommittee thereof, to grant to eligible employees, non-employee directors and consultants of Intrusion and
its subsidiaries non-statutory and incentive stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock
appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance awards, non-employee director awards, and other stock-based awards. If the proposal
is approved subject to adjustment, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be authorized for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan
will be 2,500,000, with an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2025 and ending on January 1,
2030 equal to the lesser of: (A) ten percent (10%) of the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding from the first
day of the preceding calendar year to the first day of the current calendar year, as the number of shares are determined on a fully-diluted
basis; and (B) such smaller number of shares of Common Stock as may be determined by the Board.
Our board of directors is recommending that our
stockholders approve the amendment to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan.
Summary of Sound Governance Features of the
2021 Equity Plan
The board of directors believes that the 2021
Equity Plan contains several features that are consistent with protecting the interests of our stockholders and sound corporate governance
practices, including the following:
✓ |
Will not be excessively dilutive to stockholders |
✓ |
No re-pricing of “underwater” stock options or SARs without stockholder approval |
✓ |
No
tax gross ups |
✓ |
No reload options or SARs |
✓ |
Clawback
provisions |
✓ |
No discounted options or SARs |
✓ |
Limits
on director compensation |
|
|
The following is a summary of the principal features
of the 2021 Equity Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus
Incentive Plan (referred to herein as the “2021 Equity Plan”), which is set forth in Appendix A.
The Board recommends a
vote “FOR” this proposal.
PLAN SUMMARY
Any stockholder
who wishes to obtain a copy of the actual 2021 Equity Plan document may do so upon written request to the Company’s Corporate Secretary,
c/o Intrusion Inc., 101 East Park Blvd, Suite 1300, Plano, Texas 75074.
Purpose
The purpose
of the 2021 Equity Plan is to provide a means through which the Company may attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means whereby
directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company can acquire and maintain an equity interest in the Company, or
be paid incentive compensation, including incentive compensation measured by reference to the value of Common Stock, thereby strengthening
their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its Affiliates and aligning their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.
Administration
The 2021 Equity Plan is
administered by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors or such other committee of our board of directors to which it
has properly delegated power, or if no such committee or subcommittee exists, our board of directors. To the extent required by
applicable law, rule or regulation, it is intended that each member of the Compensation Committee shall qualify as (a) a
“non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3, and (b) an “independent director” under the rules of any national
securities exchange or national securities association, as applicable.
The Compensation Committee
is authorized to interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any defect in and/or supply any omission in the 2021 Equity
Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or any award granted under, the 2021 Equity Plan (each, an “Award”); establish,
amend, suspend, or waive any rules and regulations and appoint such agents as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate for the proper
administration of the 2021 Equity Plan; adopt sub-plans; and to make any other determination and take any other action that the Compensation
Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the 2021 Equity Plan. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law
or the applicable rules and regulations of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which our securities are listed
or traded, the Compensation Committee may allocate all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members
and may delegate all or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it in accordance with the terms
of the 2021 Equity Plan.
Unless otherwise
expressly provided in the 2021 Equity Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect
to the 2021 Equity Plan or any Award or any documents evidencing Awards granted pursuant to the 2021 Equity Plan are within the sole discretion
of the Compensation Committee, may be made at any time and are final, conclusive and binding upon all persons or entities, including,
without limitation, us, any participant, any holder or beneficiary of any Award, and any of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee
may make grants of the following Awards to eligible persons (“Eligible Persons”) pursuant to terms and conditions set forth
in the applicable Award agreement, including subjecting such Awards to performance criteria listed in the 2021 Equity Plan.
| · | Stock Option Awards, |
| · | Stock Appreciation Right Awards, |
| · | Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Awards, |
| · | Performance Awards, |
| · | Other Stock-Based Awards and Cash-Based Awards |
Eligible Shares
Currently,
under the 2021 Equity Plan (sometimes referred to herein as the “Plan”), the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that
may be issued or used for reference purposes or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the 2021 Equity Plan shall not exceed
One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand (125,000) shares. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Stock Awards and
Stock Options may be granted under the Plan is One Hundred Twenty-Five Thousand (125,000) shares. If Proposal 3 is approved, the maximum
number of shares with respect to which Awards may granted under the Plan and with respect to which Incentive Stock Options may be granted,
cumulatively, would be Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (2,500,000) shares. If any Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Other Stock-Based
Awards granted under the Plan expires, terminates or is canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of shares
of Common Stock underlying any unexercised Award shall again be available for the purpose of Awards under the Plan. If any shares of Restricted
Stock, Performance Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards denominated in shares of Common Stock awarded under the Plan to a Participant are
forfeited for any reason, the number of forfeited shares of Restricted Stock, Performance Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards denominated
in shares of Common Stock shall again be available for purposes of Awards under the Plan. If any shares of Common Stock are (i) withheld
to satisfy tax withholding obligations on an Award issued under the Plan, (ii) tendered in order to satisfy the exercise price due with
respect to an Award issued under the Plan, or (iii) repurchased by the Company using proceeds received upon exercise of a Stock Option,
the number of shares of Common Stock so withheld, tendered or repurchased, as applicable, shall not be available for purposes of future
Awards under the Plan. If a Stock Appreciation Right or a Limited Stock Appreciation Right is granted in tandem with an Option, such grant
shall only apply once against the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan. Any Award under the Plan
settled in cash shall not be counted against the foregoing maximum share limitations. To date, 79,226 total shares have been issued under
the Plan, 26,007 shares have been issued under Awards and 53,220 shares have been issued with respect to Stock Options. 31,701 shares
have been forfeited and returned to the Plan.
Eligible Persons
Any Employee of the
Company or any of its affiliates, any independent Non-Employee Director, or person who is an advisor or consultant to the Company designated
by the Committee in its discretion as eligible to receive Awards subject to the conditions set forth in the Plan (an “Eligible Person”)
shall be permitted to participate (a “Participant”) under the 2021 Equity Plan. Only Eligible Persons who are also employees
of the Company or its affiliates are eligible to receive Stock Awards and Stock Options under the 2021 Equity Plan. Eligibility for the
grant of a Stock Award or Stock Option and actual participation in the 2021 Equity Plan shall be determined by the Compensation Committee
in its sole discretion. As of July 1, 2024, approximately 49 employees, including three Executive officers, and four Non-Employee-Directors
would qualify as Eligible Persons and potential Participants in 2021 Equity Plan.
Plan Awards
Stock
Options. The Compensation Committee may grant non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options to Eligible Persons, under the
2021 Equity Plan, with terms and conditions determined by the Compensation Committee that are not inconsistent with the 2021 Equity Plan.
All stock options granted under the 2021 Equity Plan are required to have a per share exercise price that is not less than 100% of the
fair market value of the Company’s Common Stock underlying such stock options on the date such stock options are granted (other
than in the case of options that are substitute Awards). All stock options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options must
be granted pursuant to an Award agreement expressly stating that the options are intended to qualify as incentive stock options and will
be subject to the terms and conditions that comply with the rules as may be prescribed by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”). The maximum term for stock options granted under the 2021 Equity Plan will be ten years from
the initial date of grant, or with respect to any stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options, such shorter period as
prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. However, if a non-qualified stock option would expire at a time when trading of shares of our Common
Stock is prohibited by our insider trading policy (or “blackout period” imposed by the Company), the term will automatically
be extended to the 30th day following the end of such period. The purchase price for the shares as to which a stock option is exercised
may be paid, to the extent permitted by law, (i) in cash or its equivalent at the time the stock option is exercised; (ii) in shares having
a fair market value equal to the aggregate exercise price for the shares being purchased and satisfying any requirements that may be imposed
by the Compensation Committee (so long as such shares have been held by the Participant for at least six months or such other period established
by the Compensation Committee to avoid adverse accounting treatment); or (iii) by such other method as the Compensation Committee may
permit in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, (A) in other property having a fair market value on the date of exercise
equal to the purchase price, (B) if there is a public market for the shares at such time, through the delivery of irrevocable instructions
to a broker to sell the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the stock option and to deliver to us the amount of the proceeds of
such sale equal to the aggregate exercise price for the shares being purchased or (C) through a “net exercise” procedure effected
by withholding the minimum number of shares needed to pay the exercise price. Any fractional shares of Common Stock will be settled in
cash.
Stock
Appreciation Rights. The Compensation Committee may grant stock appreciation rights under the 2021 Equity Plan, with terms and conditions
determined by the Compensation Committee that are not inconsistent with the 2021 Equity Plan. The Compensation Committee may award stock
appreciation rights in tandem with options or independent of any option. Generally, each stock appreciation right will entitle the participant
upon exercise to an amount (in cash, shares or a combination of cash and shares, as determined by the Compensation Committee) equal to
the product of (i) the excess of (A) the fair market value on the exercise date of one share of Common Stock, over (B) the strike price
per share, times (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the stock appreciation right. The strike price per share of a stock
appreciation right will be determined by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant but in no event may such amount be less than
100% of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date the stock appreciation right is granted (other than in the case of
stock appreciation rights granted in substitution of previously granted Awards).
Restricted
Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Compensation Committee may grant restricted shares of our Common Stock or restricted stock units,
representing the right to receive, upon vesting and the expiration of any applicable restricted period, one share of Common Stock for
each restricted stock unit, or, in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee, the cash value thereof (or any combination thereof).
As to restricted shares of our Common Stock, subject to the other provisions of the 2021 Equity Plan, the holder will generally have the
rights and privileges of a stockholder as to such restricted shares of Common Stock, including, without limitation, the right to vote
such restricted shares of Common Stock. Participants have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with respect to restricted stock units.
Performance
Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant a Performance Award to a Participant payable upon the attainment of specific performance
criteria. If the Performance Award is payable in shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be transferable to the Participant only upon
attainment of the relevant Performance Criteria. If the Performance Award is payable in cash, it may be paid upon the attainment of the
relevant Performance Criteria either in cash or in shares of Common Stock (based on the then current fair market value of such shares),
as determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion. Each Performance Award shall be evidenced by an Award
Agreement in such form that is not inconsistent with the Plan and that the Compensation Committee may from time to time approve.
Other Equity-Based Awards
and Cash-Based Awards. The Compensation Committee may grant other equity-based or cash-based Awards under the 2021 Equity Plan, with
terms and conditions determined by the Compensation Committee that are not inconsistent with the 2021 Equity Plan.
Effect of Certain Events on 2021 Equity Plan and Award
In the event of (i)
any dividend (other than regular cash dividends) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities
or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, spin-off,
combination, repurchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock or other securities, issuance of warrants or other rights to acquire shares
of Common Stock or other securities, or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects the shares of Common Stock (including
a change in control, as defined in the 2021 Equity Plan), or (ii) unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, including changes
in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements, that the Compensation Committee determines, in its sole discretion, could
result in substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, participants (any event in (i)
or (ii), being referred to as an “Adjustment Event”), the Compensation Committee will, in respect of any such Adjustment Event,
make such proportionate substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems equitable, to any or all of: (A) the number of shares of Common
Stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) which may be issued in respect of
Awards or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the 2021 Equity Plan or any sub-plan and (B) the terms of any outstanding
Award, including, without limitation, (1) the number of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind
of other securities or other property) subject to outstanding Awards or to which outstanding Awards relate, (2) the exercise price or
strike price with respect to any Award, or (3) any applicable performance measures; it being understood that, in the case of any “equity
restructuring,” the Compensation Committee will make an equitable or proportionate adjustment to outstanding Awards to reflect such
equity restructuring.
In connection
with any change in control, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for any one or more of the following: (i)
a substitution or assumption of Awards, or to the extent the surviving entity does not substitute or assume the Awards, the acceleration
of vesting of, the exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions on Awards and (ii) cancellation of any one or more outstanding Awards and
payment to the holders of such Awards that are vested as of such cancellation (including any Awards that would vest as a result of the
occurrence of such event but for such cancellation) the value of such Awards, if any, as determined by the Compensation Committee (which
value, if applicable, may be based upon the price per share of Common Stock received or to be received by other holders of our Common
Stock in such event), including, in the case of stock options and stock appreciation rights, a cash payment equal to the excess, if any,
of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the option or stock appreciation right over the aggregate exercise price
or strike price thereof.
PROPOSAL FOUR
APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE
INTRUSION INC. EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE
PLAN
Overview
At the Annual Meeting, stockholders are also being
asked to approve an amendment to Intrusion Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) to increase the number of shares
the plan was authorized to issue post reverse stock split from 50,000 to the pre reverse stock split authorized plan amount of 1,000,000.
The purpose of the ESPP is to advance the interests of Intrusion and its stockholders by enabling Intrusion and its subsidiaries to attract
and retain qualified individuals to perform services, to provide incentive compensation for such individuals in a form that is linked
to the growth and profitability of Intrusion and increases in stockholder value, and to provide opportunities for equity participation
that align the interests of recipients with those of its stockholders.
The ESPP was originally adopted and became effective
on April 12, 2023, which was the date of its adoption by the Board, subject to the approval by the stockholders of the Company. The ESPP
provides eligible employees with an opportunity to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a discount through accumulated payroll deductions.
If the proposal is approved, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock to be authorized for issuance under the ESPP will be 1,000,000.
Our board of directors is recommending that our
stockholders approve the amendment to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the ESPP.
The following is a summary of the principal features
of the ESPP. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the ESPP, which is set forth in Appendix B.
The Board recommends a
vote “FOR” this proposal.
Summary of the ESPP
The principal terms of the
ESPP are summarized below.
The ESPP, including the right
of participants to make purchases under the ESPP, is intended to qualify as an “Employee Stock Purchase Plan” under the provisions
of Section 421 and 423 of the Code, although we may offer sub-plans or offerings that are not intended to meet the Section 423 requirements
for employees outside the United States pursuant to the terms of the ESPP. The provisions of the ESPP shall, accordingly, be construed
so as to extend and limit participation in a manner consistent with the requirements of those sections of the Code. The ESPP will not
be a qualified deferred compensation plan under Section 401(a) of the Code and is not subject to the provisions of ERISA.
Purpose
The purpose of the ESPP is
to provide our employees with a means of acquiring an equity interest in Intrusion through payroll deductions, to enhance such employees’
sense of participation in our business, and to provide an incentive for continued employment through the opportunity to acquire equity
at a discounted price.
Shares Reserved for Issuance
If approved, 1,000,000 shares
of the Common Stock of Intrusion Inc. will be reserved and made available for issuance under the ESPP. The ESPP does not include an evergreen
provision, thereby eliminating an annual automatic increase of shares. The closing price per share of our Class A Common Stock on July
1, 2024, was $1.08.
Offering Periods
The ESPP is currently expected
to be administered through consecutive six-month periods referred to as “Offering Periods,” commencing on each January
1 and July 1, and ending on the succeeding June 30 and December 31, respectively. The Compensation Committee may change the duration and
structure of future Offering Periods in accordance with the terms of the ESPP, provided that no Offering Period may extend for a period
longer than 27 months.
On the first trading day of
each Offering Period (the “Offering Date”), each eligible employee who has properly enrolled in that Offering Period in accordance
with the rules prescribed by the Compensation Committee will be granted an option to purchase shares of our common stock to be funded
by payroll deductions, based on the participant’s elected contribution rate. Unless a participant has properly withdrawn from the
Offering Period, each option granted under the ESPP will automatically be exercised on the last trading day of the Offering Period (the
“Purchase Date”). The purchase price will be equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of our Common Stock on (i)
the Offering Date and (ii) the Purchase Date.
Plan Administration
The ESPP will be administered
by our Compensation Committee. Subject to the terms of the ESPP, the Compensation Committee will have the authority to, among other matters,
determine the eligibility of participants, determine the terms and conditions of offerings under the ESPP, and construe and interpret
the terms of the ESPP.
Eligibility
Generally, all of our employees,
and employees of any of our subsidiaries designated by the Compensation Committee, will be eligible to participate in the ESPP; provided
that employees who own (or are deemed to own as a result of stock attribution rules) stock constituting 5% or more of the total combined
voting power or value of all classes of our stock or any of our subsidiaries will not be permitted to participate in the ESPP. The Compensation
Committee may, in its discretion, exclude the following categories of employees from participation: (i) employees who are not employed
prior to the beginning of an Offering Period, (ii) employees who are customarily employed 20 hours or less per week in a calendar year;
(iii) employees who are customarily employed five months or less in a calendar year; (iv) certain “highly compensated” employees;
(v) employees who are citizens or residents of a foreign jurisdiction, if such employee’s participation is prohibited under the
laws of the jurisdiction governing such employee or compliance with the laws of the foreign jurisdiction would violate the requirements
of Section 423 of the Code; (vi) employees who do not meet any other eligibility requirements that the Compensation Committee may choose
to impose (within the limits permitted by the Code); and (vii) individuals who provide services to Intrusion who are reclassified as common
law employees for any reason except for federal income and employment tax purposes. A new plan benefits table is provided below:

As of July 1, 2024, approximately
49 of our employees were eligible to participate in the ESPP.
Enrollment in the ESPP
Eligible employees become
participants in the ESPP by completing a subscription agreement or enrolling online authorizing payroll deductions prior to the applicable
Offering Date. A person who becomes employed after the commencement of an Offering Period may not participate in the ESPP until the commencement
of the next Offering Period.
Contribution and Purchase Limitations
Unless otherwise determined
by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the terms of the ESPP, no participant may (i) elect a contribution rate of more than
15% of his or her compensation (as defined in the ESPP) for the purchase of shares under the ESPP; (ii) purchase more than 1,500 shares
of our Common Stock (which limit the Compensation Committee may increase or decrease provided such limit does not exceed 10,000 shares)
under the ESPP on any one Purchase Date; or (iii) purchase shares that have a fair market value of more than $25,000, determined as of
the Offering Date, in any calendar year in which the Offering Period is in effect.
Certain Corporate Transactions
If the number of outstanding
shares of our Common Stock is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination,
reclassification, or similar change in our capital structure without consideration, then the Compensation Committee will proportionately
adjust the number of shares available under the ESPP, the purchase price, the number of shares any participant has elected to purchase,
and the limit on the number of shares a participant may purchase on any one Purchase Date.
In the event of a Corporate
Transaction (as defined in the ESPP), each outstanding right to purchase Common Stock under the ESPP will be assumed or an equivalent
option substituted by the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the purchase
right, the Offering Period with respect to which such purchase right relates will be shortened and provide for a new final Purchase Date,
which shall occur on or prior to the consummation of the Corporate Transaction, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The ESPP
shall terminate on the closing of the Corporate Transaction.
Term; Amendments and Termination
The ESPP terminates upon the
issuance of all the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP or an earlier termination of the ESPP by our Board of
Directors or our Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee may generally amend, suspend, or terminate the ESPP at any time without
stockholder approval, except as may be required by applicable law or exchange listing rules.
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following is a general
summary of the United States federal income tax consequences to us and to participants in the ESPP based on tax laws in effect as of the
date of this proxy statement. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not address all matters that may be relevant to any
particular participant. Among other considerations, this summary does not describe the tax laws of any state, municipality, or foreign
jurisdiction, or describe gift, estate, excise, payroll or other employment taxes. Participants are advised to consult with their tax
advisors regarding the tax consequences of participation in the ESPP. The ESPP is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase
plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code and the following discussion assumes that it is so qualified.
Each participant’s payroll
deductions under the ESPP will be made on an after-tax basis. Generally, the participant will not recognize any taxable income at the
time he or she is granted an option to purchase shares of Common Stock during an Offering Period or at the time the option is exercised
to purchase shares on behalf of the participant. The participant will generally only recognize taxable income (or loss) on the date the
participant sells or otherwise disposes of the acquired shares. The particular tax consequence depends on the length of time such shares
are held by the participant prior to the sale or disposition.
If the shares are sold or
disposed of more than two years from the first day of the Offering Period during which the shares were purchased, and more than one year
from the Purchase Date or if the participant dies while holding the shares, the participant (or his or her estate) will recognize ordinary
income measured as the lesser of (i) the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the Offering Date exceeded the purchase
price of the shares (calculated as though the shares had been purchased on the Offering Date) and (ii) the excess of the fair market value
of the shares at the time of such sale or other disposition over the purchase price. Any additional gain will be treated as long-term
capital gain. If the shares are held for the holding periods described above but are sold for a price that is less than the purchase price,
there is no ordinary income, and the participating employee has a long-term capital loss for the difference between the sale price and
the purchase price. If the shares are sold or otherwise disposed of before the expiration of either of the holding periods described above,
the participant will recognize ordinary income generally measured as the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date the
shares are purchased over the purchase price. Any additional gain or loss on such sale or disposition will be long-term or short-term
capital gain or loss, depending on how long the shares were held following the date they were purchased by the participant prior to disposing
of them.
We are generally not entitled
to a deduction for amounts taxed as ordinary income or capital gain to a participant except to the extent of ordinary income recognized
upon a sale or disposition of shares prior to the expiration of the holding periods described above.
New Plan Benefits
Participation in the ESPP
is voluntary and each eligible employee will have the discretion to determine whether and to what extent to participate in and contribute
to the ESPP. Accordingly, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated to officers and other employees under the ESPP are
not determinable at this time. Our non-employee directors will not be eligible to participate in our ESPP.
PROPOSAL FIVE
approval
of the reservation and issuance of up to $10.0 Million
of
Securities in connection with a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement.
Our Common Stock is currently
listed on Nasdaq and, as such, the Company is subject to Nasdaq rules, which require us to obtain stockholder approval prior to the issuance
of our Common Stock in connection with certain non-public offerings involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by the Company
of Common Stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock) equal to 20% or more of the Common Stock outstanding
before the issuance.
Overview
On July 3, 2024, the Company
entered into the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (“SEPA”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”)
pursuant to which the Company has the right to sell to Streeterville up to $10.0 million of Common Stock (“Commitment Amount”),
subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the SEPA, from time to time during the term of the SEPA. The term of
the SEPA is a period of 24 months from the date of entry into the definitive documents. The Company also entered into a Registration
Rights Agreement with Streeterville pursuant to which it will register the resale of shares of Common Stock issued to Streeterville pursuant
to the SEPA. Sales of the shares of Common Stock to Streeterville under the SEPA, and the timing of any such sales, are at the Company’s
option, and the Company is under no obligation to sell any shares of Common Stock to Streeterville under the SEPA.
Upon the satisfaction of the
conditions to Streeterville’s purchase obligation set forth in the SEPA, including having a registration statement registering the
resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable under the SEPA declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company
will have the right, but not the obligation, from time to time at its discretion, to direct Streeterville to purchase a specified number
of shares of Common Stock (an “Advance”) by delivering written notice to Streeterville (an “Advance Notice”).
Each Advance is limited to the lower of (i) an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate daily trading volume during the three (3) consecutive trading
days immediately preceding an Advance Notice, or (ii) 4.99% of the shares issued and outstanding of Common Stock.
The shares of Common Stock
purchased pursuant to an Advance will be purchased at a price equal to 95% of the lowest daily VWAP of the shares of Common Stock during
the three consecutive trading days commencing on the date of the delivery of the Advance Notice, other than the daily VWAP on a day
in which the daily VWAP is less than a minimum acceptable price as stated by the Company in the Advance Notice or there is no VWAP on
the subject trading day. The Company may establish a minimum acceptable price in each Advance Notice below which the Company will
not be obligated to make any sales to Streeterville. “VWAP” is defined as the daily volume weighted average price of the shares
of Common Stock for such trading day on the Nasdaq Stock Market during regular trading hours as reported by Bloomberg L.P.
Under applicable Nasdaq rules
and the terms of the SEPA, in no event may the Company issue to Streeterville under the SEPA shares of Common Stock equal to greater
than 19.99% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the execution of the SEPA (the “Exchange Cap”),
unless (i) the Company obtains stockholder approval to issue shares of Common Stock in excess of the Exchange Cap in accordance
with applicable Nasdaq rules, or (ii) the average price per share paid by Streeterville for all of the shares of Common Stock that
the Company directs Streeterville to purchase from the Company pursuant to the SEPA, if any, equals or exceeds the lower of (a) the
official closing price of the Common Stock on Nasdaq immediately preceding the execution of the SEPA and (b) the average official
closing price of the Common Stock on Nasdaq for the five consecutive trading days immediately preceding the execution of the SEPA,
adjusted as required by Nasdaq. Moreover, the Company may not issue or sell any shares of Common Stock to Streeterville under the SEPA
which, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by Streeterville and its affiliates (as calculated
pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 thereunder), would result in Streeterville beneficially
owning more than 19.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
Actual sales of shares of Common
Stock to Streeterville as an Advance under the SEPA will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time,
which may include, among other things, market conditions, the trading price of the Common Stock and determinations by the Company as to
the appropriate sources of funding for our business and operations. The Company will use 10% of the proceeds associated with each Advance
to redeem the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock held by Streeterville.
The SEPA will automatically
terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) the 24-month anniversary of the date of the SEPA or (ii) the date on which the
Company shall have made full issuances of Advances pursuant to the SEPA. The Company has the right to terminate the SEPA at no cost
or penalty upon five (5) trading days’ prior writtine notice to Streeterville, provided that there are no outstanding Advance Notices
for which shares of Common Stock need to be issued.
As consideration for Streeterville’s
commitment to purchase the shares of Common Stock pursuant the SEPA, the Company paid Streeterville, (i) a structuring fee in the
amount of $25,000 and (ii) a commitment fee equal to 1% of the Commitment Amount, to be paid within three trading days of entering
into the SEPA.
The net proceeds under the
SEPA to the Company will depend on the frequency and prices at which Common Stock is sold. The Company expects that proceeds received
from such sales will be used primarily for working capital and general corporate purposes.
Reasons for the Financing
The Company believes that
the Streeterville transaction provides necessary additional sources of capital to the Company. The proceeds that the Company expects
to receive from the Streeterville transaction will allow the Company to fund its business operations. The Streeterville transaction provides
the Company with future flexibility to enhance its liquidity in an opportunistic and efficient manner, and only when the Company deems
it to be necessary. We remain focused on creating long-term value for our stockholders, and the Streeterville transaction will allow
us to be strategic in how we access and deploy capital primarily in support of the ongoing development and distribution of our products.
Reasons for the Stockholder Approval
Our Common Stock is listed
on Nasdaq, and as a result, the Company is subject to the Nasdaq Listing Rules. In order to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, we
are seeking stockholder approval of this proposal to potentially sell additional shares of Common Stock above the Exchange Cap.
Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) requires
stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with a transaction other than a public offering involving the
sale, issuance or potential issuance of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) in an amount
equal to 20% or more of the common stock or 20% or more of the voting power outstanding before the issuance at a price less than the
“Minimum Price.” The Minimum Price is defined as the lower of (i) the closing price of the common stock immediately
preceding the signing of the sale agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the common stock for the five trading days
immediately preceding the signing of the sale agreement.
Accordingly, we are seeking
stockholder approval under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) for the sale, issuance or potential issuance by us of Common Stock (or
securities convertible into or exercisable for our Common Stock) in excess of 20% of the shares of our Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to the SEPA at an exercise price less than the Minimum Price in connection with the SEPA.
Consequences of Not Approving this Proposal
The Board is not seeking the
approval of the Company’s stockholders to authorize the entry into the SEPA. The SEPA has already been executed and delivered, and
the closing of the SEPA has occurred. The failure of our stockholders to approve this proposal will mean that the issuance of shares of
Common Stock in accordance with the SEPA will be limited to an amount up to the Exchange Cap, and we will not be able to realize the full
benefit of this important financing transaction.
Potential Adverse Effects of Approving this
Proposal
If approved, this proposal
will provide for the issuance of up to an aggregate of $10 million in shares of Common Stock to Streeterville. The issuance
of shares of Common Stock to Streeterville will dilute the percentage ownership interest of all stockholders, may dilute the book value
per share of the Common Stock and will increase the number of the Company’s outstanding shares, which could depress the market price
of the Common Stock.

ownership of that person, shares of Common Stock subject to options or warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable
or will become exercisable on or before August 25, 2024, are deemed outstanding. However, these shares are not deemed outstanding
for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT
During 2023 and 2022, the
Company retained legal services of a third-party law firm for which the Company’s Chief Executive Officer is a senior advisor. The
Company recognized $77,415 and $268,291 in expense for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively in general and administrative

paid to other law firms providing legal services to the Company.
On January 2, 2024, the Company
entered into an invoice financing arrangement pursuant to a note purchase agreement with Anthony Scott, President and Chief Executive

in the aggregate principal amount of $1,080,000 in exchange for $1,000,000 to the Company. Under the Note, the Company shall make principal
payments to Mr. Scott in the amount $40,000 per week each week prior to its maturity on June 15, 2024. Interest accrues on the balance

officers, directors, director nominees, or 5% beneficial holders, or member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, in which
one of the foregoing individuals or entities had an interest of more than $120,000. It is the Company’s policy that any such transaction
between these individuals and the Company would require the review and approval of our Board prior to being entered into.

1.
Purpose. The Intrusion Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan was originally adopted and became effective on March

effective May 16, 2023, pursuant to approval by the stockholders of the Company, to confer authority to the Compensation Committee to

reference to the value of Common Stock, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its Affiliates and aligning
their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.

extent permitted, arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the administration of the Plan, except to the extent arising

may have under any separate agreement or contract, applicable law and/or the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the Company or
any Affiliate. This indemnification will not apply to the actions or determinations made by an individual with regard to Awards granted

Share Limitation.
(a)
Shares. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes or with respect
to which Awards may be granted under the Plan shall not exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (2,500,000) shares (subject to any increase
or decrease pursuant to Section 4(b) or otherwise provided for in this Sub-Paragraph), which may be either authorized and unissued
Common Stock or Common Stock held in or acquired for the treasury of the Company or both. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitation,
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes or with respect to which Awards may be
granted under the Plan shall be increased annually on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2025, and ending on
January 1, 2030 equal to the lesser of: (A) ten percent (10%) of the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding from
the first day of the preceding calendar year to the first day of the current calendar year, as the number of shares are determined on
a fully-diluted basis; and (B) such smaller number of shares of Common Stock as may be determined by the Board.
(b)
The maximum number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options may be granted under the Plan shall
be Two Million Five Hundred Thousand (2,500,000) shares. If any Option, Stock Appreciation Right or Other Stock-Based Awards granted under
the Plan expires, terminates or is canceled for any reason without having been exercised in full, the number of shares of Common Stock
underlying any unexercised Award shall again be available for the purpose of Awards under the Plan. If any shares of Restricted Stock,
Performance Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards denominated in shares of Common Stock awarded under the Plan to a Participant are forfeited
for any reason, the number of forfeited shares of Restricted Stock, Performance Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards denominated in shares
of Common Stock shall again be available for purposes of Awards under the Plan. If any shares of Common Stock are (i) withheld to satisfy
tax withholding obligations on an Award issued under the Plan, (ii) tendered in order to satisfy the exercise price due with respect to
an Award issued under the Plan, or (iii) repurchased by the Company using proceeds received upon exercise of a Stock Option, the number
of shares of Common Stock so withheld, tendered or repurchased, as applicable, shall not be available for purposes of future Awards under
the Plan. If a Stock Appreciation Right or a Limited Stock Appreciation Right is granted in tandem with an Option, such grant shall only
apply once against the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under the Plan. Any Award under the Plan settled in
cash shall not be counted against the foregoing maximum share limitations.
(c)
Changes. The existence of the Plan and the Awards granted under the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or
power of the Board, the Committee or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize (i) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization,
stock split, or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Company
or any Affiliate, (iii) any issuance of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or affecting the Common Stock,
(iv) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, (v) any sale or transfer of all or part of the assets or business
of the Company or any Affiliate or (vi) any other corporate act or proceeding. Subject to the provisions of Section 11(b):
(i)
If the Company at any time subdivides (by any split, recapitalization or otherwise) the outstanding Common Stock into a greater
number of shares of Common Stock, or combines (by reverse split, combination or otherwise) its outstanding Common Stock into a lesser
number of shares of Common Stock, then the respective exercise prices for outstanding Awards that provide for a Participant elected exercise
and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee to prevent dilution
or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under the Plan.
(ii)
Excepting transactions covered by Section 11(b), if the Company effects any merger, consolidation, statutory exchange, spin-off,
reorganization, sale or transfer of all or substantially all the Company’s assets or business, or other corporate transaction or
event in such a manner that the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock are converted into the right to receive (or the holders
of Common Stock are entitled to receive in exchange for such shares), either immediately or upon liquidation of the Company, securities
or other property of the Company or other entity (each, a “Reorganization”), then, subject to the provisions of Section 11(b),
(A) the aggregate number or kind of securities that may be issued under the Plan, (B) the number or kind of securities or other property
(including cash) to be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan (including as a result of the assumption of the Plan and the obligations
under the Plan by a successor entity, as applicable), or (C) the purchase price for such securities, shall be appropriately adjusted by
the Committee to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available for, Participants under the Plan.
(iii)
If there shall occur any change in the capital structure of the Company other than those covered by Section 11 or this Section,
including by reason of any extraordinary dividend (whether cash or equity), any conversion, any adjustment, any issuance of any class
of securities convertible or exercisable into, or exercisable for, any class of equity securities of the Company, then the Committee may
adjust any Award and make such other adjustments to the Plan to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights granted to, or available
for, Participants under the Plan.
(iv)
Any such adjustment determined by the Committee pursuant to this Section shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Company
and all Participants and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and permitted assigns. Any adjustment to, or assumption
or substitution of, an Award under this Section shall be intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury
Regulation §1.424-1 (and any amendments thereto), to the extent applicable. Except as expressly provided in this Section or in the
applicable Award Agreement, a Participant shall have no additional rights under the Plan by reason of any transaction or event.
(v)
Fractional shares of Common Stock resulting from any adjustment in Awards pursuant to Section 11 or this Section shall be aggregated
until, and eliminated at, the time of exercise or payment by rounding-down for fractions less than one-half and rounding-up for fractions
equal to or greater than one-half. No cash settlements shall be required with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding. Notice
of any adjustment shall be given by the Committee to each Participant whose Award has been adjusted and such adjustment (whether or not
such notice is given) shall be effective and binding for all purposes of the Plan.
(d)
Minimum Purchase Price. If authorized but previously unissued shares of Common Stock are issued under the Plan, such shares
shall not be issued for a consideration that is less than as permitted under applicable law.
(e)
Minimum Vesting Period. Each Award Agreement will require that an Award be subject to a minimum vesting period of at least
one (1) year commencing from the grant date, or with respect to Awards that vest upon the attainment of Performance Criteria, a Performance
Period that is at least one (1) year. However, an Award, other than an Award based on the attainment of a Performance Criteria, may vest
during a period less than one (1) year under Special Circumstances. For the purpose of clarity, this Section 4(d) will not prevent the
Committee from accelerating the vesting of any Award in accordance with any of the provisions set forth in this Plan.
5.

General Eligibility. All current and prospective Eligible Individuals are eligible to be granted Awards. Eligibility for
the grant of Awards and actual participation in the Plan shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.
(b)
Incentive Stock Options. Only Eligible Employees of the Company, its Subsidiaries and its Parent (if any) are eligible to

General Requirement. The vesting and exercise of Awards granted to a prospective Eligible Individual are conditioned upon
such individual actually becoming an Eligible Employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director, respectively.
6.
Stock Option.
(a)
Options. Stock Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. Each Stock Option granted
under the Plan shall be of one of two types: an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
(b)
Grants. The Committee shall have the authority to grant to any Eligible Employee one or more Incentive Stock Options,
Non-Qualified Stock Options, or both types of Stock Options. The Committee shall have the authority to grant any Consultant or Non-Employee
Director one or more Non-Qualified Stock Options. To the extent that any Stock Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option (whether
because of its provisions or the time or manner of its exercise or otherwise), such Stock Option or the portion which does not so qualify
shall constitute a separate Non-Qualified Stock Option.
(c)
Incentive Stock Options. No term of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered,
nor shall any discretion or authority granted under the Plan be so exercised, so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code,
or, without the consent of the Participants affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under Section 422.
(d)
Term of Options. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall be in such
form and contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee deems desirable:
(i)
Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee
at the time of grant, provided that the per share exercise price of a Stock Option shall not be less than 100% (or, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder, 110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the date of grant.
(ii)
Stock Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee, provided that no Stock Option shall be
exercisable more than ten years after the date the Option is granted; and provided, further, that the term of an Incentive Stock Option
granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder shall not exceed five years.
(iii)
Exercisability. Unless provided by the Committee, Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time
or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. If the Committee provides,
in its discretion, that any Stock Option is exercisable subject to certain limitations (including that such Stock Option is exercisable
only in installments or within certain time periods), the Committee may waive such limitations on the exercisability at any time at or
after the time of grant in whole or in part (including waiver of the installment exercise provisions or acceleration of the time at which
such Stock Option may be exercised), based on such factors, if any, as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion.
(iv)
Method of Exercise. Subject to applicable installment exercise and waiting period provisions, to the extent vested, Stock
Options may be exercised in whole or in part at any time during the Option term, by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying
the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price as follows:
(i) in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the order of the Company; (ii) solely to the extent permitted by applicable
law, if the Common Stock is traded on a national securities exchange, and the Committee authorizes, through a procedure whereby the Participant
delivers irrevocable instructions to a broker reasonably acceptable to the Committee to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal
to the purchase price; (iii) having the Company withhold shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option, or by payment
in full or in part in the form of Common Stock owned by the Participant, based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment
date as determined by the Committee; or (iv) on such other terms and conditions as may be acceptable to the Committee (including having
the Company withhold shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option, or by payment in full or in part in the form of
Common Stock owned by the Participant, based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date as determined by the Committee).
No shares of Common Stock shall be issued until payment has been made or provided for.
(v)
Non-Transferability of Options. No Stock Option shall be Transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws
of descent and distribution, and all Stock Options shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant.
The Committee may determine, in its sole discretion, at the time of grant or later that a Non-Qualified Stock Option that is not Transferable
pursuant to this Section is Transferable to a Family Member in whole or in part and in such circumstances, and under such conditions,
as specified by the Committee. A Non-Qualified Stock Option that is Transferred to a Family Member pursuant to the preceding sentence
(i) may not be subsequently Transferred other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and (ii) remains subject to the
terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. Any shares of Common Stock acquired upon the exercise of a Non-Qualified Stock Option
by a permissible transferee of a Non-Qualified Stock Option or a permissible transferee pursuant to a Transfer after the exercise of the
Non-Qualified Stock Option shall be subject to the terms of the Plan and the Award Agreement.
(vi)
Termination by Death of Disability. Subject to the terms of the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Termination is
by reason of death or Disability, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable at the time of the
Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death, by the legal representative
of the Participant’s estate) at any time within a period of one year from the date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the
expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options; provided, however, that, in the event of a Participant’s Termination by reason
of Disability, if the Participant dies within such exercise period, all unexercised Stock Options held by such Participant shall be exercisable,
to the extent to which they were exercisable at the time of death, for a period of one year from the date of such death, but in no event
beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.
(vii)
Involuntary Termination Without Cause. Subject to the terms of the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Termination
is by involuntary termination by the Company without Cause, all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable
at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the
date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.
(viii)
Voluntary Resignation. Subject to the terms of the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Termination is voluntary (other
than a voluntary termination described in Section 6(d)(ix), all Stock Options that are held by such Participant that are vested and exercisable
at the time of the Participant’s Termination may be exercised by the Participant at any time within a period of 90 days from the
date of such Termination, but in no event beyond the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Options.
(ix)
Termination for Cause. Subject to the terms of the Award Agreement, if a Participant’s Termination (x) is for Cause
or (y) is a voluntary Termination (as provided in Section 6(d)(viii) after the occurrence of an event that would be grounds for a Termination
for Cause, all Stock Options, whether vested or not vested, that are held by such Participant shall terminate and expire as of the date
of such Termination.
(x)
Unvested Options. Subject to the terms of the Award Agreement, Stock Options that are not vested as of the date of a Participant’s
Termination for any reason shall terminate and expire as of the date of such Termination.
(xi)
Incentive Stock Option Limitations. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time of grant)
of the Common Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by an Eligible Employee during any
calendar year under the Plan and/or any other stock option plan of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Parent exceeds $100,000, such Options
shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. In addition, if an Eligible Employee does not remain employed by the Company, any Subsidiary
or any Parent at all times from the time an Incentive Stock Option is granted until three months before the date of exercise (or such
other period as required by applicable law), such Stock Option shall be treated as a Non-Qualified Stock Option. Should any provision
of the Plan not be necessary in order for the Stock Options to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, or should any additional provisions
be required, the Committee may amend the Plan accordingly, without the necessity of obtaining the approval of the stockholders of the
Company.
(xii)
Form, Modification, Extension and Renewal of Stock Options. Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations
of the Plan, Stock Options shall be evidenced by such form of agreement or grant as is approved by the Committee, and the Committee may
(i) modify, extend or renew outstanding Stock Options granted under the Plan (provided that the rights of a Participant are not reduced
without such Participant’s consent and provided further that such action does not subject the Stock Options to Section 409A of the
Code without the consent of the Participant), and (ii) accept the surrender of outstanding Stock Options (to the extent not previously
exercised) and authorize the granting of new Stock Options in substitution therefor (to the extent not previously exercised). An outstanding
Option may not be modified to reduce the exercise price nor may a new Option at a lower price be substituted for a surrendered Option
(other than adjustments or substitutions in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii), unless such action is approved by the stockholders of the
Company.
(xiii)
Deferred Delivery of Common Stock. The Committee may in its discretion permit Participants to defer delivery of Common Stock
acquired pursuant to a Participant’s exercise of an Option in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the Committee
in the applicable Award Agreement, to the extent such deferred delivery complies with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.
(xiv)
Early Exercise. The Committee may provide that a Stock Option include a provision to permit the Participant to elect at
any time before the Participant’s Termination to exercise the Stock Option as to any part or all of the shares of Common Stock subject
to the Stock Option before the full vesting of the Stock Option and such shares shall be subject to the provisions of and be treated as
Restricted Stock. Unvested shares of Common Stock so purchased may be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company or to any
other restriction the Committee determines to be appropriate.
(xv)
Other Terms and Conditions. The Committee may include a provision in an Award Agreement providing for the automatic exercise
of a Non-Qualified Stock Option on a cashless basis on the last day of the term of such Option if the Participant has failed to exercise
the Non-Qualified Stock Option as of such date, with respect to which the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Non-Qualified Stock Option exceeds the exercise price of such Non-Qualified Stock Option on the date of expiration of such Option, subject
to Section 14(o). Stock Options may contain such other provisions, which shall not be inconsistent with any of the terms of the Plan,
as the Committee shall deem appropriate.
7.
Stock Appreciation Rights.
(a)
Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall be subject
to such terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as shall be determined from time to time by the Committee,
including the following:
(i)
Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock subject to a Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by
the Committee at the time of grant, provided that the per share exercise price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100%
of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time of grant.
(ii)
Term. The term of each Stock Appreciation Right shall be fixed by the Committee but shall not be greater than ten years
after the date the right is granted.
(iii)
Exercisability. Unless provided by the Committee, Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall be exercisable
at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee at the time of grant. If the Committee
provides, in its discretion, that any such right is exercisable subject to certain limitations (including without limitation that it is
exercisable only in installments or within certain time periods), the Committee may waive such limitations on the exercisability at any
time at or after grant in whole or in part (including without limitation waiver of the installment exercise provisions or acceleration
of the time at which such right may be exercised), based on such factors, if any, as the Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion.
(iv)
Method of Exercise. Subject to applicable installment exercise and waiting period provisions Stock Appreciation Rights may
be exercised in whole or in part at any time in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement, by giving written notice of exercise to
the Company specifying the number of Stock Appreciation Rights to be exercised.
(v)
Payment. Upon the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant shall be entitled to receive, for each right exercised,
up to, but no more than, an amount in cash and/or Common Stock (as chosen by the Committee in its sole discretion) equal in value to the
excess of the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the date that the right is exercised over the Fair Market Value of one
share of Common Stock on the date that the right was awarded to the Participant.
(vi)
Termination. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Agreement and the Plan, upon a Participant’s Termination
for any reason, Stock Appreciation Rights will remain exercisable following a Participant’s Termination on the same basis as Stock
Options would be exercisable following a Participant’s Termination.
(vii)
Non-Transferability. No Stock Appreciation Rights shall be Transferable by the Participant other than by will or by the
laws of descent and distribution, and all such rights shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant.
(b)
Limited Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may include a provision in an Award Agreement providing for the automatic
exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right on a cashless basis on the last day of the term of such Stock Appreciation Right if the Participant
has failed to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right as of such date, with respect to which the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common
Stock underlying the Stock Appreciation Right exceeds the exercise price of such Stock Appreciation Right on the date of expiration of
such Stock Appreciation Right, subject to Section 14(o). Stock Appreciation Rights may contain such other provisions, which shall not
be inconsistent with any of the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall deem appropriate.
8.
Restricted Stock.
(a)
Awards of Restricted Stock. Shares of Restricted Stock may be issued either alone or in addition to other Awards granted
under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the Eligible Individuals, to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Restricted
Stock shall be made, the number of shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the Participant (subject to Section 14(o)),
the time or times within which such Awards may be subject to forfeiture, the vesting schedule and rights to acceleration, and all other
terms and conditions of the Awards. The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of Restricted Stock upon the attainment of specified
performance targets (including the Performance Criteria) or such other factor as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion.
(b)
Awards and Certificates. Eligible Individuals selected to receive Restricted Stock shall not have any right with respect
to such Award, unless and until such Participant has delivered a fully executed copy of the agreement evidencing the Award to the Company,
to the extent required by the Committee, and has complied with the applicable terms and conditions of such Award. Further, such Award
shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)
Purchase Price. The purchase price of Restricted Stock shall be fixed by the Committee. The purchase price for shares of
Restricted Stock may be zero to the extent permitted by applicable law, and, to the extent not so permitted, such purchase price may not
be less than par value.
(ii)
Acceptance. Awards of Restricted Stock must be accepted within a period of 60 days (or such shorter period as the Committee
may specify at grant) after the grant date, by executing a Restricted Stock agreement and by paying whatever price (if any) the Committee
has designated.
(iii)
Legend. Each Participant receiving Restricted Stock shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted
Stock, unless the Committee elects to use another system, such as book entries by the transfer agent, as evidencing ownership of shares
of Restricted Stock. Such certificate shall be registered in the name of such Participant, and shall, in addition to such legends required
by applicable securities laws, bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award,
substantially in the following form:
“The anticipation, alienation, attachment,
sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge of the shares of stock represented by this instrument are subject to the terms
and conditions (including forfeiture) of the Intrusion Inc. Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
and an Agreement entered into between the registered owner and the Company dated _______. Copies of such Plan and Agreement are on file
at the principal office of the Company.”
(iv)
Custody. If stock certificates are issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock, the Committee may require that any stock
certificates evidencing such shares be held in custody by the Company until the restrictions have lapsed, and that, as a condition of
any grant of Restricted Stock, the Participant has delivered a duly signed stock power or other instruments of assignment (including a
power of attorney), each endorsed in blank with a guarantee of signature if deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company, which would
permit transfer to the Company of all or a portion of the shares subject to the Restricted Stock Award in the event that such Award is
forfeited in whole or part.
(v)
Restrictions and Conditions. The shares of Restricted Stock awarded pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to the following
restrictions and conditions:
(I)
Restriction Period. The Participant shall not be permitted to Transfer shares of Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan
during the period or periods set by the Committee (the “Restriction Period”) commencing on the date of such Award,
as set forth in the Restricted Stock Award Agreement and such agreement shall set forth a vesting schedule and any event that would accelerate
vesting of the shares of Restricted Stock. Within these limits, based on service, attainment of Performance Criteria pursuant to Section
9 and/or such other factors or criteria as the Committee may determine in its sole discretion, the Committee may condition the grant or
provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments in whole or in part, or may accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any
Restricted Stock Award and/or waive the deferral limitations for all or any part of any Restricted Stock Award.
(II)
Performance Criteria. If the grant of shares of Restricted Stock or the lapse of restrictions is based on the attainment
of Performance Criteria, the Committee shall establish the objective Performance Criteria and the applicable vesting percentage of the
Restricted Stock applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in writing before the beginning of the applicable fiscal year
or at such later date as determined by the Committee and while the outcome of the Performance Criteria are substantially uncertain. Such
Performance Criteria may incorporate provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions
(including dispositions and acquisitions) and other similar type events or circumstances.
(vi)
Rights as a Stockholder. Except as provided in the Plan or as determined by the Committee in an Award Agreement, the Participant
shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a holder of shares of Common Stock of the Company, including
without limitation the right to receive dividends, the right to vote such shares and, subject to and conditioned upon the full vesting
of shares of Restricted Stock, the right to tender such shares. Payment of dividends shall be deferred until, and conditioned upon, the
expiration of the applicable Restriction Period.
(vii)
Termination. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan, upon a Participant’s Termination
for any reason during the relevant Restriction Period, all Restricted Stock still subject to restriction will be forfeited in accordance
with the terms and conditions established by the Committee.
(viii)
Lapse of Restrictions. If and when the Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, the
certificates for such shares shall be delivered to the Participant. All legends shall be removed from said certificates at the time of
delivery to the Participant, except as required by applicable law or other limitations imposed by the Committee.
9.
Performance Awards.
(a)
Performance Awards. The Committee may grant a Performance Award to a Participant payable upon the attainment of specific
Performance Criteria. If the Performance Award is payable in shares of Common Stock, such shares shall be transferable to the Participant
only upon attainment of the relevant Performance Criteria in accordance with Section 9(b)(v). If the Performance Award is payable in cash,
it may be paid upon the attainment of the relevant Performance Criteria either in cash or in shares of Common Stock (based on the then
current Fair Market Value of such shares), as determined by the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion. Each Performance Award
shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in such form that is not inconsistent with the Plan and that the Committee may from time to time
approve.

conditions:

extent to which the Performance Criteria established pursuant to Section 9(b)(iii) are achieved and the percentage of each Performance
Award that has been earned.
(ii)
Non-Transferability. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan, Performance Awards may not
be Transferred during the Performance Period.
(iii)
Objective Performance Criteria, Formula or Standards. The Committee shall establish the objective Performance Criteria for
the earning of Performance Awards based on a Performance Period applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in writing before
the beginning of the applicable Performance Period or at such later date and while the outcome of the Performance Criteria are substantially
uncertain. Such Performance Criteria may incorporate provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate
transactions (including dispositions and acquisitions) and other similar type events or circumstances.
(iv)
Dividends. Unless determined by the Committee at the time of grant, amounts equal to dividends declared during the Performance
Period with respect to the number of shares of Common Stock covered by a Performance Award will not be paid to the Participant.

without limitation in shares of Common Stock or in cash) as determined by the Committee, in an amount equal to such Participant’s
earned Performance Awards.
(vi)
Termination. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan, upon a Participant’s Termination
for any reason during the Performance Period for a given Performance Award, the Performance Award in question will vest or be forfeited
in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the Committee at grant.
(vii)
Accelerated Vesting. Based on service, performance and/or such other factors or criteria, if any, as the Committee may determine,
the Committee may, at or after grant, accelerate the vesting of all or any part of any Performance Award.
10.
Other Stock-based and Cash-based Awards.
(a)
Other Stock-Based Awards. The Committee is authorized to grant to Eligible Individuals Other Stock-Based Awards that are
payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or based on or related to shares of Common Stock, including without limitation
shares of Common Stock awarded purely as a bonus and not subject to restrictions or conditions, shares of Common Stock in payment of the
amounts due under an incentive or performance plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or an Affiliate, stock equivalent units, restricted
stock units, and Awards valued by reference to book value of shares of Common Stock. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted either alone
or in addition to or in tandem with other Awards granted under the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have
authority to determine the Eligible Individuals, to whom, and the time or times at which, such Awards shall be made, the number of shares
of Common Stock to be awarded pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of the Awards. The Committee may also provide for the
grant of Common Stock under such Awards upon the completion of a specified Performance Period. The Committee may condition the grant or
vesting of Other Stock-Based Awards upon the attainment of specified Performance Criteria as the Committee may determine, in its sole
discretion; the Committee shall establish the objective Performance Criteria for the grant or vesting of such Other Stock-Based Awards
based on a Performance Period applicable to each Participant or class of Participants in writing before the beginning of the applicable
Performance Period and while the outcome of the Performance Criteria are substantially uncertain. Such Performance Criteria may incorporate,
provisions for disregarding (or adjusting for) changes in accounting methods, corporate transactions (including dispositions and acquisitions)
and other similar type events or circumstances.
(b)
Terms and Conditions. Other Stock-Based Awards made pursuant to this Section 10(b) shall be subject to the following terms
and conditions:
(i)
Non-Transferability. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Award Agreement and the Plan, shares of Common Stock subject
to Awards made under this Section 10(b) may not be Transferred before the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date
on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.
(ii)
Dividends. Unless determined by the Committee at the time of Award, subject to the provisions of the Award Agreement and
the Plan, the recipient of an Award under this Section 10(b) shall not be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred basis, dividends

Other Cash-Based Awards. The Committee may from time to time grant Other Cash- Based Awards to Eligible Individuals in such
amounts, on such terms and conditions, and for such consideration, including no consideration or such minimum consideration as may be
required by applicable law, as it shall determine in its sole discretion. Other Cash-Based Awards may be granted subject to the satisfaction
of vesting conditions or may be awarded purely as a bonus and not subject to restrictions or conditions, and if subject to vesting conditions,
the Committee may accelerate the vesting of such Awards at any time in its sole discretion. The grant of an Other Cash-Based Award shall
not require a segregation of any of the Company’s assets for satisfaction of the Company’s payment obligation.
11.
Change in Control Provisions.
(a)
Benefits. In the event of a Change in Control of the Company (as defined below), and except as provided by the Committee
in an Award Agreement, a Participant’s unvested Award shall not vest automatically and a Participant’s Award shall be treated
in accordance with one or more of the following methods as determined by the Committee:
(i)
Awards, whether or not then vested, shall be continued, assumed, or have new rights substituted therefor, as determined by the
Committee in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and restrictions to which shares of Restricted Stock
or any other Award granted before the Change in Control are subject shall not lapse upon a Change in Control and the Restricted Stock
or other Award shall, where appropriate in the sole discretion of the Committee, receive the same distribution as other Common Stock on
such terms as determined by the Committee; provided that the Committee may decide to award additional Restricted Stock or other Awards
in lieu of any cash distribution. For purposes of Incentive Stock Options, any assumed or substituted Stock Option shall comply with the
requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.424-1 (and any amendment thereto).
(ii)
The Committee, in its sole discretion, may provide for the purchase of any Awards by the Company or an Affiliate for an amount
of cash equal to the excess (if any) of the Change in Control Price (as defined below) of the shares of Common Stock covered by such Awards,
over the aggregate exercise price of such Awards. “Change in Control Price” shall mean the highest price per share
of Common Stock paid in any transaction related to a Change in Control of the Company.
(iii)
The Committee may, in its sole discretion, terminate all outstanding and unexercised Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights,
or any Other Stock-Based Award that provides for a Participant elected exercise, effective as of the date of the Change in Control, by
delivering notice of termination to each Participant before the date of consummation of the Change in Control, in which case during the
period from the date on which such notice of termination is delivered to the consummation of the Change in Control, each such Participant
may exercise in full all of such Participant’s Awards that are then outstanding (without regard to any limitations on exercisability
contained in the Award Agreements), but any such exercise shall be contingent on the occurrence of the Change in Control, and, provided
that, if the Change in Control does not take place within a specified period after giving such notice for any reason whatsoever, the notice
and exercise pursuant thereto shall be null and void.
(iv)
The Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting or lapse of restrictions, of an Award at any time.
(b)
Change in Control. Unless determined by the Committee in the applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement with
a Participant approved by the Committee, a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to occur if:
(i)
any “person,” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act (other than the Company, any trustee
or other fiduciary holding securities under any employee benefit plan of the Company, or any company owned, directly or indirectly, by
the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of Common Stock of the Company), becoming the
beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing
50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities;
(ii)
during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board, and any new director
(other than a director designated by a Person who has entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in
subsections (b)(i), (iii), or (iv) of this Section or a director whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of either an actual
or threatened election contest or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than
the Board) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least
two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose election or
nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board;
(iii)
a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation, other than (i) a reorganization, merger or
consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent
(either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting
power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or
(ii) a reorganization, merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which
no Person (other than those covered by the exceptions in Section 11(b)(i)) acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the
Company’s then outstanding securities; or
(iv)
a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the consummation of a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets other than the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to a Person
or Persons who beneficially own, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities
of the Company immediately before the time of the sale. With respect to any Award that is characterized as “nonqualified deferred
compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, an event shall not be considered to be a Change in Control under the
Plan for purposes of payment of such Award unless such event is also a “change in ownership,” a “change in effective
control” or a “change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets” of the Company within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code.
(c)
Escrow and Withholding of Proceeds. To the extent the Board determines that the escrow or withholding of any proceeds with
respect to any Awards is in the best interest of the Company in connection with a transaction that would result in a Change in Control,
the Board shall, in its good faith, make any such determination, taking into account the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and
such determination shall be final, binding and conclusive. The Board may make any such determination with respect to any Awards and shall
not be required to treat all Awards in the same manner.
12.
Termination of Amendment of Plan. The Board may at any time, and from time to time, amend, in whole or in part,
any or all of the provisions of the Plan (including any amendment deemed necessary to ensure that the Company may comply with any regulatory
requirement referred to in Section 422 or Section 409A of the Code), or suspend or terminate it entirely; provided, however, that, unless
required by law or provided in this Plan, the rights of a Participant with respect to Awards granted before such amendment, suspension
or termination, may not be impaired without the consent of such Participant and, provided further, that without the approval of the holders
of the Company’s Common Stock entitled to vote in accordance with applicable law, no amendment may be made that would (a) increase
the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan (except by operation of Section 4(b); (b) change the
classification of individuals eligible to receive Awards under the Plan; (c) decrease the minimum option price of any Stock Option or
Stock Appreciation Right; (d) extend the maximum option period under Section 6(d)(ii); (e) alter the Performance Criteria for Restricted
Stock, Performance Awards or Other Stock-Based Awards; (f) award any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right in replacement of a canceled
Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right with a higher exercise price than the replacement award; or (g) in no event may the Plan be amended
without the approval of the stockholders of the Company in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware to increase the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan, decrease the minimum exercise price of any Award, or to make any other
amendment that would require stockholder approval under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) rules and regulations or the rules
of any exchange or system on which the Company’s securities are listed or traded at the request of the Company. The Board may amend
the Plan or any Award Agreement at any time without a Participant’s consent to comply with applicable law including Section 409A
of the Code. The Committee may amend the terms of any Award prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment or other action by the
Committee shall impair the rights of any holder without the holder’s consent.
13.
Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and
deferred compensation. With respect to any payment as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but which are not yet made
to a Participant by the Company, nothing in the Plan gives any such Participant any right that is greater than those of a general unsecured
creditor of the Company.
14.
General Provisions.
(a)
Legend. In addition to any legend required by the Plan, the certificates for such shares may include any legend that the
Committee deems appropriate to reflect any restrictions on Transfer. All certificates for shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan
shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations
and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed or any
national securities exchange system upon whose system the Common Stock is then quoted, any applicable federal or state securities law,
and any applicable corporate law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions.
(b)
Other Plans. Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional compensation arrangements,
subject to stockholder approval if such approval is required, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only
in specific cases.
(c)
No Right to Employment/Directorship/Consultancy. Neither the Plan nor the grant of any Option or other Award shall give
any Participant or other employee, Consultant or Non-Employee Director any right with respect to continuance of employment, consultancy
or directorship by the Company or any Affiliate, nor shall there be a limitation in any way on the right of the Company or any Affiliate
by which an employee is employed or a Consultant or Non-Employee Director is retained to terminate such employment, consultancy or directorship
at any time.
(d)
Withholding of Taxes. The Company may deduct from any payment to be made pursuant to the Plan, or to require, before the
issuance or delivery of shares of Common Stock or the payment of any cash hereunder, payment by the Participant of, any federal, state
or local taxes required by law to be withheld. Upon the vesting of Restricted Stock (or other Award that is taxable upon vesting), or
upon making an election under Section 83(b) of the Code, a Participant shall pay all required withholding to the Company. Any minimum
statutorily required withholding obligation with regard to any Participant may be satisfied, subject to the consent of the Committee,
by reducing the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or by delivering shares of Common Stock already owned. Furthermore, at the
discretion of the Committee, any additional tax obligations of a Participant with respect to an Award may be satisfied by further reducing
the number of shares of Common Stock, deliverable with respect to such Award, to the extent that such reductions do not result in any
adverse accounting implications to the Company, as determined by the Committee. Any fraction of a share of Common Stock required to satisfy
such tax obligations shall be disregarded and the amount due shall be paid instead in cash by the Participant.
(e)
No Assignment of Benefits. No Award or other benefit payable under the Plan shall, except as provided by law or permitted
by the Committee, be Transferable in any manner, and any attempt to Transfer any such benefit shall be void, and any such benefit shall
not in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Person who shall be entitled
to such benefit, nor shall it be subject to attachment or legal process for or against such Person.
(f)
Listing and Other Conditions.
(i)
Unless determined by the Committee, as long as the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or system sponsored
by a national securities association, the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award shall be conditioned upon such shares
being listed on such exchange or system. The Company shall have no obligation to issue such shares unless and until such shares are so
listed, and the right to exercise any Option or other Award with respect to such shares shall be suspended until such listing has been
effected.
(ii)
If at any time counsel to the Company shall be of the opinion that any sale or delivery of shares of Common Stock pursuant to an
Option or other Award is or may in the circumstances be unlawful or result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company under the
statutes, rules or regulations of any applicable jurisdiction, the Company shall have no obligation to make such sale or delivery, or
to make any application or to effect or to maintain any qualification or registration under the Securities Act with respect to shares
of Common Stock or Awards, and the right to exercise any Option or other Award shall be suspended until, in the opinion of said counsel,
such sale or delivery shall be lawful or will not result in the imposition of excise taxes on the Company.
(iii)
Upon termination of any period of suspension, any Award affected by such suspension which shall not then have expired or terminated
shall be reinstated as to all shares available before such suspension and as to shares which would have become available during the period
of such suspension, but no such suspension shall extend the term of any Award.
(iv)
A Participant shall be required to supply the Company with certificates, representations and information that the Company requests
and cooperate with the Company in obtaining any listing, registration, qualification, exemption, consent or approval the Company deems
necessary or appropriate.
(g)
Governing Law. The Plan and actions taken in connection with the Plan shall be governed and construed in accordance with

the foregoing, the Company and each Participant shall irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submit in any proceeding relating to the Plan
or any Award Agreement, or for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof (a “Proceeding”), to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Collin County, Texas, and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from any of the foregoing,
and agree that all claims in respect of any such Proceeding shall be heard and determined in such Texas court or, to the extent permitted
by law, in such federal court, (b) consent that any such Proceeding may and shall be brought in such courts and waives any objection that
the Company and each Participant may have to the venue or jurisdiction of any such Proceeding in any such court or that such Proceeding
was brought in an inconvenient court and agree not to plead or claim the same, (c) waive all right to trial by jury in any Proceeding
(whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to the Plan or any Award Agreement, (d) agree that service of
process in any such Proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail (or any substantially
similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party, in the case of a Participant, at the Participant’s address shown in the books

(m)
Death/Disability. The Committee may in its discretion require the transferee of a Participant to supply it with written
notice of the Participant’s death or Disability and to supply it with a copy of the will (in the case of the Participant’s
death) or such other evidence as the Committee deems necessary to establish the validity of the transfer of an Award. The Committee may
also require that the agreement of the transferee to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Plan.

shares of Common Stock are intended to comply with any applicable exemptive condition under Rule 16b-3. The Committee may establish and
adopt written administrative guidelines, designed to facilitate compliance with Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, as it may deem necessary
or proper for the administration and operation of the Plan.

the Code, it shall be paid in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code, including proposed, temporary or final regulations
or any other guidance issued by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service with respect thereto. Any provision in
the Plan that is inconsistent with Section 409A of the Code shall be deemed to be amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and
to the extent such provision cannot be amended to comply therewith, such provision shall be null and void. The Company shall have no liability
to a Participant, or any other party, if an Award that is intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Code is not
so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Committee or the Company and, in the event that any amount or benefit under the
Plan becomes subject to penalties under Section 409A of the Code, responsibility for payment of such penalties shall rest solely with
the affected Participants and not with the Company. Any payment of “nonqualified deferred compensation” (within the meaning
of Section 409A of the Code) that are required to be made under the Plan to a “specified employee” (as defined under Section
409A of the Code) as a result of such employee’s separation from service (other than a payment that is not subject to Section 409A
of the Code) shall be delayed for the first six (6) months following such separation from service (or, if earlier, the date of death of
the specified employee) and shall instead be paid (in a manner set forth in the Award Agreement) upon expiration of such delay period.
(p)

estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate.
(q)
Severability of Provisions. If any provision of the Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability

be considered part of the Plan, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

APPENDIX B
AMENDED AND RESTATED INTRUSION, INC.
2023 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN
1.
Establishment of Plan. Approved by stockholder vote effective May 16, 2023, Intrusion proposes to grant rights to purchase shares
of Common Stock to eligible Employees of Intrusion and its Participating Corporations (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to this Plan.
Intrusion intends this Plan to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code (including any amendments
to or replacements of such Section), and this Plan will be so construed. Any term not expressly defined in this Plan but defined for purposes
of Section 423 of the Code will have the same definition herein. Subject to Section 14, a total of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock is
reserved for issuance under this Plan. The number of shares reserved for issuance under this Plan will be subject to adjustments effected
in accordance with Section 14 of this Plan. Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 27. A reverse stock
split of Intrusion’s outstanding shares of common stock was effected March 15, 2024, at a ratio of 1-for-20. In view of this reverse
stock split and subject to stockholder approval, the Company’s board of directors on June 26, 2024, approved an additional reserve
of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock under this Plan, such issuance continuing to be subject to adjustments effected in accordance with
Section 14 of the Plan.
2. Purpose. The
purpose of this Plan is to provide eligible Employees of Intrusion and Participating Corporations with a means of acquiring an
equity interest in Intrusion through payroll deductions (or other permitted contributions), to enhance such Employees’ sense
of participation in the affairs of Intrusion.
3. Administration.
(a)
The Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”), by the Board, or by the
Committee’s delegate(s), as permitted by applicable law and provided herein. Subject to the provisions of this Plan and the limitations
of Section 423 of the Code or any successor provision in the Code, all questions of interpretation or application of this Plan will be
determined by the Committee or its delegate(s) and its decisions will be final and binding upon all Participants. The Committee or its
delegate(s) will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the Plan, and to determine
eligibility. The Committee will have full authority to determine which eligible entities will be Participating Corporations, whether an
offer to a Participating Corporation is intended to meet Code Section 423 requirements, and whether to have separate offerings and the
terms of such offerings (in accordance with the Plan), and to decide upon any and all claims filed under the Plan. Every finding, decision
and determination made by the Board, the Committee or its delegate(s) will, to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding
upon all parties. The Board or Committee will have the authority to determine the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock (which determination
will be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes) in accordance with Section 8 below and to interpret Section 8 of
the Plan in connection with circumstances that impact the Fair Market Value. Members of the Committee will receive no compensation for
their services in connection with the administration of this Plan, other than standard fees as established from time to time by the Board
for services rendered by Board members serving on Board committees. All expenses incurred in connection with the administration of this
Plan will be paid by Intrusion. For purposes of this Plan, the Committee may designate separate offerings under the Plan (the terms of
which need not be identical) in which eligible Employees of one or more Participating Corporations will participate, even if the dates
of the applicable Offering Periods of each such offering are identical. In this regard, and unless otherwise specified by the Committee,
each offering of the Plan to the eligible Employees of Intrusion or a Participating Corporation will be deemed a separate offering for
purposes of Code Section 423 and the provisions of the Plan will separately apply to each Offering. The Committee may establish rules
to govern transfers of employment between Intrusion and its Participating Corporations and transfers of participation between separate
offerings made under the Plan, consistent with any applicable Code Section 423 requirements and the terms of the Plan.
4.
Eligibility. Any Employee of Intrusion or the Participating Corporations is eligible to participate in an Offering Period under
this Plan except that the Committee may exclude any or all of the following (other than where prohibited by applicable law):
(a)
Employees who are not employed by Intrusion or a Participating Corporation prior to the beginning of such Offering Period or prior to
such other time period as specified by the Committee or its delegate(s);
(b) Employees
who are customarily employed for twenty (20) or less hours per week; calendar year;
(c) Employees who are customarily

is an officer and/or is subject to the disclosure requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act;
(e)
Employees who are citizens or residents of a non-U.S. jurisdiction (without regard to whether they are also a citizen of the U.S. or a
resident alien (within the meaning of Section 7701(b)(1)(A) of the Code)) if either: (i) such employee’s participation is prohibited
under the laws of the jurisdiction governing such employee, or (ii) compliance with the laws of the non-U.S. jurisdiction would violate
the requirements of Section 423 of the Code;
(f)
Employees who do not meet any other eligibility requirements that the Committee may choose to impose (within the limits permitted by the
Code); and
(g)
individuals who provide services to Intrusion or any of its Participating Corporations as independent contractors who are reclassified
as common law employees for any reason except for federal income and employment tax purposes.
The foregoing notwithstanding, (i)
Employees who, together with any other person whose stock would be attributed to such Employee pursuant to Section 424(d) of the Code,
own stock or hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes
of stock of Intrusion or any of its Participating Corporations or who, as result of being granted an option under this Plan with respect
to such Offering Period, would own stock or hold options to purchase stock possessing five percent (5%) or more of the total combined
voting power or value of all classes of stock of Intrusion or any of its Participating Corporations may not participate in the Plan and
(ii) an individual will not be eligible if his or her participation in the Plan is prohibited by the law of any country that has jurisdiction
over him or her or if he or she is subject to a collective bargaining agreement that does not provide for participation in the Plan.
5. Offering
Dates.
(a)
While the Plan is in effect, the Board or Committee may determine the duration and commencement date of each Offering Period, provided
that an Offering Period will in no event be longer than twenty-seven (27) months. Offering Periods may be consecutive or overlapping.
Each Offering Period may consist of one or more Purchase Periods during which payroll deductions of Participants are accumulated under
this Plan. While the Plan is in effect, the Board or Committee may determine the duration and commencement date of each Purchase Period,
provided that a Purchase Period will in no event end later than the close of the Offering Period in which it begins. Purchase Periods
will be consecutive.
(b)
Until otherwise determined by the Board or Committee, the Offering Periods under the Plan shall be six-months and will commence on each
January 1 and July 1, with each such Offering Period also consisting of a single six-month Purchase Period. The Board or Committee will
have the power to change these terms as provided in Section 5(a) above and Section 24 below.
6. Participation
in this Plan
.
(a)
With respect to each Offering Period, an eligible Employee determined in accordance with Section 4 may elect to become a Participant
by submitting the prescribed enrollment form (an “Enrollment Form”) in accordance with Intrusion’s procedures
prior to the commencement of the Offering Period to which such agreement relates in accordance with such rules as Intrusion may determine.
(b) Once an Employee
becomes a Participant in an Offering Period, then such Participant will automatically participate in the Offering Period commencing immediately
following the last day of such prior Offering Period at the same contribution level as was in effect in the prior Offering Period unless
the Participant withdraws or is deemed to withdraw from this Plan or terminates further participation in the Offering Period as set forth
in Section 11 below, or otherwise notifies Intrusion of a change in the Participant’s contribution level by filing an additional
Enrollment Form in accordance with Intrusion’s procedures. A Participant that is automatically enrolled in a subsequent Offering
Period pursuant to this subsection (b) is not required to file any additional Enrollment Form in order to continue participation in this
Plan and (ii) will be deemed to have accepted the terms and conditions of the Plan and Enrollment Form in effect at the time each subsequent
Offering Period begins, subject to Participant’s right to withdraw from the Plan in accordance with the withdrawal procedures in
effect at the time.
7. Grant
of Option on Enrollment. Becoming a Participant with respect to an Offering Period will constitute the grant (as of the Offering
Date) by Intrusion to such Participant of an option to purchase on the Purchase Date up to that number of shares of Common Stock
determined by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the applicable contribution level for such Participant multiplied
by such Participant’s Compensation (as defined in Section 9 below) during such Purchase Period and the denominator of
which is the lower of (i) eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the Offering Date
(but in no event less than the par value of a share of Intrusion’s Common Stock), or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the
Fair Market Value of a share of the Common Stock on the Purchase Date (but in no event less than the par value of a share of the
Common Stock), and provided, further, that the number of shares of Common Stock subject to any option granted pursuant to this Plan
will not exceed the lesser of (x) the maximum number of shares provided under this Plan, as may be changed by the Board or Committee
pursuant to Section 10(b) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date or (y) the maximum number of shares which may be
purchased pursuant to Section 10(a) below with respect to the applicable Purchase Date.
8. Purchase
Price. The Purchase Price per share at which a share of Common Stock will be sold to a Participant in any Offering Period will
be eighty-five percent (85%) of the lesser of:
(a)
The Fair Market Value on the Offering Date;
or (b) The Fair Market Value
on the Purchase Date.
9. Payment
of Purchase Price; Payroll Deduction Changes; Share Issuances.
(a)The aggregate Purchase
Price of the shares purchased hereunder is accumulated by regular payroll deductions made during each Offering Period, unless Intrusion
determines that contributions may be, or are required to be, made in another form (including payment by check at the end of a Purchase
Period). The deductions are made as a percentage of the Participant’s Compensation in one percent (1%) increments not less than
one percent (1%), nor greater than fifteen percent (15%) or such lower limit set by the Board or Committee. “Compensation”
will mean base salary and regular hourly wages, not including bonuses and incentive compensation commissions and shift differentials;
however, Intrusion may at any time prior to the beginning of an Offering Period determine that for that and future Offering Periods,
Compensation may include any W-2 cash compensation, including without limitation base salary or regular hourly wages, bonuses, incentive
compensation, commissions, overtime, shift premiums, plus draws against commissions. For purposes of determining a Participant’s
Compensation, any election by such Participant to reduce his or her regular cash remuneration under Sections 125 or 401(k) of the Code
will be treated as if the Participant did not make such election. Payroll deductions will commence on the first payday on or following
the beginning of the Offering Period or as otherwise determined by rules established by Intrusion and will continue to the end of the
applicable Offering Period unless sooner altered or terminated as provided in this Plan.
(b)
Except as provided in Section 9(c) below or as otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant may not make changes in the
percentage of payroll deductions during an Offering Period or Purchase Period. A Participant may increase or decrease the percentage of
payroll deductions by completing a new authorization for payroll deductions prior to the beginning of a new Offering Period, within such
timeframe as may be specified by Intrusion and pursuant to such Enrollment Form or other form as required by Intrusion, with such change
becoming effective as of the Offering Date of such new Offering Period.
(c)
Subject to Section 24 below and to the rules of the Plan, a Participant may reduce his or her payroll deduction percentage to
zero during an Offering Period by filing with Intrusion a request for withdrawal from participation at least fifteen (15) days
before the applicable Purchase Date (or within such other time frame as specified by Intrusion), and after such withdrawal becomes
effective no further payroll deductions will be made for the duration of the Offering Period. Payroll deductions accumulated on
behalf of the Participant but not yet used to purchase shares prior to the effective date of the request will be refunded to the
Participant. A reduction of the payroll deduction percentage to zero will be treated as such Participant’s withdrawal from
such Offering Period and the Plan, effective as of the day following the filing date of such request with Intrusion.
(d)
All payroll deductions made for a Participant are credited to the Participant’s account under this Plan and are deposited with the
general funds of Intrusion, and Intrusion will not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions. No interest accrues on the payroll
deductions. All payroll deductions received or held by Intrusion may be used by Intrusion for any corporate purpose.
(e)
On each Purchase Date, so long as this Plan remains in effect and provided that the Participant has not withdrawn from participation in
the Offering Period at least fifteen (15) days before such Purchase Date (or within such other time frame as specified by Intrusion),
Intrusion will apply the funds accumulated on behalf of the Participant to the purchase of whole shares of Common Stock reserved under
the option granted to such Participant with respect to the Offering Period to the extent that such option is exercisable on the Purchase
Date. The Purchase Price per share will be as specified in Section 8 of this Plan. Any amount accumulated on behalf of a Participant
on a Purchase Date which is less than the amount necessary to purchase a full share of Common Stock will be refunded to Participant in
cash, without interest, at or shortly following the end of the Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be, unless otherwise
determined by Intrusion. No Common Stock will be purchased on a Purchase Date on behalf of any Employee who has ceased to provide services
to either Intrusion or a Participating Corporation prior to such Purchase Date. In the event that this Plan has been oversubscribed, all
funds accumulated on behalf of a Participant that are not used to purchase shares on the Purchase Date will be returned to the Participant,
without interest.
(f) As
promptly as practicable after the Purchase Date, Intrusion will issue shares for the Participant’s benefit representing the
shares purchased upon exercise of the Participant’s option.
(g)
During a Participant’s lifetime, the option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by the Participant. The Participant
will have no interest or voting right in shares covered by the option until such option has been exercised.
(h)
To the extent required by applicable U.S. federal, state or local law, a Participant will make arrangements satisfactory to Intrusion
and the Participant’s employer for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise in connection with the Plan. At
any time, Intrusion or the Participant’s employer may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s wages
or other cash compensation the amount necessary for Intrusion or the Participant’s employer to meet applicable withholding obligations,
including up to the maximum permissible statutory rates and including any withholding required to make available to Intrusion or any Participating
Corporation, as applicable, any tax deductions or benefits attributable to the sale or early disposition of shares of Common Stock. In
addition, Intrusion or the Participant’s employer may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the proceeds of the sale of
Common Stock or by any other method of withholding Intrusion or the Participant’s employer deems appropriate. Intrusion will not
be required to issue any shares of Common Stock under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.
10. Limitations
on Shares to be Purchased.
(a)
No Participant will be entitled to purchase stock under any Offering Period at a rate which, when aggregated with such
Participant’s rights under all other employee stock purchase plans of a Participating Company intended to meet the
requirements of Section 423 of the Code to purchase stock that are also outstanding in the same calendar year(s) under other
Offering Periods or other employee stock purchase plans of Intrusion, its Parent and its Subsidiaries exceeds U.S. $25,000 in Fair
Market Value, determined as of the Offering Date (or such other limit as may be imposed by the Code) for each calendar year in which
such Offering Period is in effect (hereinafter the “Maximum Dollar Amount”), or such lower amount as is
determined by the Board or the Committee. Intrusion may automatically suspend the payroll deductions of any Participant as necessary
to enforce such limit; provided that when Intrusion automatically resumes such payroll deductions, Intrusion must apply the rate in
effect immediately prior to such suspension. Alternatively, in Intrusion’s discretion and to the extent permissible under
applicable law, if Intrusion does not automatically suspend payroll deductions of any Participant as necessary to enforce such limit
or if payroll deductions exceed the amount that may be purchased pursuant to the Share Limit as defined in Section 10(b) below,
Intrusion shall refund any accumulated payroll deductions that may not be applied to the purchase of shares due to the applicable
Maximum Dollar Amount or Share Limit as determined by Sections 10(a) and (b), with such refund occurring as soon as
practicable following the applicable Purchase Date without interest.
(b)The Board or Committee may, in its sole discretion, set a lower maximum number of shares which may be purchased by any Participant
during any Offering Period than that determined under Section 10(a) above, which will be the “Maximum Share
Limit” for subsequent Offering Periods; provided, however, in no event will a Participant be permitted to purchase more
than ten thousand (10,000) Shares during any one Purchase Period irrespective of the limits set forth in (a) and (b) hereof, or such
lower share limit (the “Share Limit”) as the Committee may determine from time to time. The initial Share Limit
is 1,500 shares during any one Purchase Period or such greater (not to exceed the Maximum Share Limit) or lesser number, in either
case as the Committee or Board may determine. If a new Share Limit is set, then all Participants will be notified of such Share
Limit prior to the commencement of the next Offering Period for which it is to be effective. The Share Limit will continue to apply
with respect to all succeeding Offering Periods unless revised by the Board or Committee as set forth above.
(c)
If the number of shares to be purchased on a Purchase Date by all Participants exceeds the number of shares then available for
issuance under this Plan, then Intrusion will make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as will be
reasonably practicable and as Intrusion determines to be equitable. In such event, Intrusion will give written notice of such
reduction of the number of shares to be purchased under a Participant’s option to each Participant affected.
(d)
Any payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of a Participant which are not used to purchase stock due to the limitations in this Section
10, and not covered by Section 9(e), as applicable, will be returned to the Participant as soon as practicable after the
end of the applicable Purchase Period, without interest.
11. Withdrawal.
(a)
Each Participant may withdraw from an Offering Period under this Plan pursuant to a method specified by Intrusion. Such withdrawal
may be elected at any time prior to the last fifteen (15) days of an Offering Period, or such other time period as specified by
Intrusion.
(b)
Upon withdrawal from this Plan, the accumulated payroll deductions will be returned to the withdrawn Participant, without interest,
and the Participant’s interest in this Plan will terminate. In the event a Participant voluntarily elects to withdraw from
this Plan, the Participant may not resume participation in this Plan during the same Offering Period, but may participate in any
Offering Period under this Plan which commences on a date subsequent to such withdrawal by re-enrolling in this Plan in the manner
set forth in Section 6 above.
12. Termination
of Employment. If a Participant’s employment terminates for any reason, including without limitation retirement, death,
disability, or the failure of a Participant to remain an eligible Employee of Intrusion or of a Participating Corporation, or the
failure of a Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate to remain a Participating Corporation for any reason, the Participant’s
participation in this Plan will terminate as of the date of such termination. In such event, accumulated payroll deductions credited
to the Participant will be returned to the Participant or, in the case of the Participant’s death, to the Participant’s
legal representative, without interest. For purposes of this Section 12, an Employee will not be deemed to have ceased to
provide services or failed to remain in the continuous employ of Intrusion or of a Participating Corporation in the case of sick
leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by Intrusion or as so provided pursuant to a formal policy adopted
from time to time by Intrusion; provided that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or reemployment upon the
expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. Intrusion will have sole discretion to determine whether a
Participant has terminated employment and the effective date on which the Participant terminated employment, regardless of any
notice period required under local employment law.
13. Return
of Payroll Deductions. In the event a Participant’s interest in this Plan is terminated by withdrawal, termination of
employment or otherwise, or in the event this Plan is terminated by the Board or Committee, Intrusion will deliver to the
Participant all accumulated payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of such Participant which were not previously used to purchase
Shares. No interest will accrue on the payroll deductions of a Participant in this Plan.
14. Capital
Changes. If the number or class of outstanding Shares is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse
stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or similar change in the capital structure of Intrusion, without
consideration, then, as applicable, the number and class of Common Stock that may be delivered under the Plan, the Purchase Price
per share, the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised, and the
numerical limits of Sections 1 and 10 will be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the
stockholders of Intrusion and in compliance with applicable securities laws; provided that fractions of a Share will not be
issued.
15. Non-assignability.
Neither payroll deductions accumulated on behalf of a Participant nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to
receive shares under this Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the
laws of descent and distribution, or, if permitted by the Committee or Intrusion, the designation of a beneficiary pursuant to a
method specified by Intrusion) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition will be
void and without effect.
16. Use
of Participant Funds and Reports. Intrusion may use all payroll deductions received or held by it under the Plan for any
corporate purpose, and Intrusion will not be required to segregate Participant payroll deductions. Until Shares are issued,
Participants will only have the rights of an unsecured creditor. Each Participant will receive a report containing, or otherwise
have access to, the following information promptly after the end of each Purchase Period: the total payroll deductions (or other
contributions) accumulated, the number of shares purchased, the Purchase Price thereof and the remaining cash balance, if any,
carried forward or refunded, as determined by Intrusion, to the next Purchase Period or Offering Period, as the case may be.
17. Notice
of Disposition. Each U.S. taxpayer Participant will notify Intrusion in writing if the Participant disposes of any of the shares
purchased in any Offering Period pursuant to this Plan if such disposition occurs within two (2) years from the Offering Date or
within one (1) year from the Purchase Date on which such shares were purchased (the “Notice Period”). Intrusion
may, at any time during the Notice Period, place a legend or legends on any certificate representing shares acquired pursuant to
this Plan requesting Intrusion’s transfer agent to notify Intrusion of any transfer of the shares. The obligation of the
Participant to provide such notice will continue notwithstanding the placement of any such legend on the certificates.
18. No
Rights to Continued Employment. Neither this Plan nor the grant of any option hereunder will confer any right on any Employee to
remain in the employ of Intrusion or any Participating Corporation, or restrict any right Intrusion or any Participating Corporation
may have to terminate such Employee’s employment.
19. Equal
Rights and Privileges. All eligible Employees granted an option under this Plan that is intended to meet the Code Section 423
requirements will have equal rights and privileges with respect to this Plan or within any separate offering under the Plan so that
this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 or any successor provision of
the Code and the related regulations. Any provision of this Plan which is inconsistent with Section 423 or any successor provision
of the Code will, without further act or amendment by Intrusion, the Committee or the Board, be reformed to comply with the
requirements of Section 423 (unless such provision applies exclusively to options granted under the Plan that are not intended to
comply with Code Section 423 requirements). This Section 19 will take precedence over all other provisions in this Plan.
20. Notices.
All notices or other communications by a Participant to Intrusion under or in connection with this Plan will be deemed to have been
duly given when received in the form specified by Intrusion at the location, or by the person, designated by Intrusion for the
receipt thereof.
21. Term;
Stockholder Approval. This Plan originally became effective on the Effective Date. This Plan will be approved by the
stockholders of Intrusion within twelve (12) months before or after the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. Any amendment to
this Plan that requires approval by stockholders of Intrusion will be done in any manner permitted by applicable law. No purchase of
shares that are subject to such stockholder approval before becoming available under this Plan will occur prior to stockholder
approval of such shares and the Board or Committee may delay any Purchase Date and postpone the commencement of any Offering Period
subsequent to such Purchase Date as deemed necessary or desirable to obtain such approval (provided that if a Purchase Date would
occur more than twenty-four (24) months after commencement of the Offering Period to which it relates, then such Purchase Date will
not occur and instead such Offering Period will terminate without the purchase of such shares and Participants in such Offering
Period will be refunded their contributions without interest. This Plan will continue until the earlier to occur of (a) termination
of this Plan by the Board or the Committee (which termination may be effected by the Board or the Committee at any time pursuant to Section
24 below) or (b) issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan.
22.
Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares; Limitation on Sale of Shares. Shares will not be issued with respect to an option unless the
exercise of such option and the issuance and delivery of such shares pursuant thereto will comply with all applicable provisions of U.S.
law, including, without limitation, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and the requirements
of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the shares may then be listed, and will be further subject to the approval
of counsel for Intrusion with respect to such compliance. Shares may be held in trust or subject to further restrictions as permitted
by any Subplan.
23. Applicable
Law. The Plan will be governed by the substantive laws (excluding the conflict of laws rules) of the State of Texas.
24. Amendment
or Termination. The Board or the Committee, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan, or any part
thereof, at any time and for any reason. If the Plan is terminated, the Board or the Committee, in its discretion, may elect to
terminate all outstanding Offering Periods either immediately or upon completion of the purchase of shares of Common Stock on the
next Purchase Date (which may be sooner than originally scheduled, if determined by the Board or the Committee in its discretion),
or may elect to permit Offering Periods to expire in accordance with their terms (and subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section
14). If an Offering Period is terminated prior to its previously-scheduled expiration, all amounts then credited to
Participants’ accounts for such Offering Period which have not been used to purchase shares of Common Stock will be returned
to those Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under local laws) as soon as administratively
practicable. Further, the Committee will be entitled to establish rules to change the Purchase Periods and Offering Periods, limit
the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld or contributed during a Purchase Period or an Offering Period, the
Committee or Intrusion may permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for
delays or mistakes in the administration of the Plan, the Committee or Intrusion may establish reasonable waiting and adjustment
periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each
Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Compensation, and establish such other
limitations or procedures as Intrusion or the Committee determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the
Plan. Such actions will not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Participants. However, no amendment will be made
without approval of the stockholders of Intrusion (obtained in accordance with Section 21 above) within twelve (12) months of
the adoption of such amendment (or earlier if required by Section 21) if such amendment would increase the number of shares
that may be issued under this Plan or otherwise require stockholder approval under Code Section 423. In addition, in the event the
Board or Committee determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences,
the Board or Committee may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to
reduce or eliminate such accounting consequences including, but not limited to: (i) amending the definition of Compensation,
including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time; (ii) altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period
including an Offering Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price; (iii) shortening any Offering Period by setting a
Purchase Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Board or Committee action; (iv) reducing the maximum
percentage of Compensation a participant may elect to set aside as payroll deductions; and (v) reducing the maximum number of shares
of Common Stock a Participant may purchase during any Offering Period. Such modifications or amendments will not require approval of
the stockholders of Intrusion or the consent of any Participants.
25. Corporate
Transactions. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each outstanding right to purchase Intrusion Common Stock will be assumed
or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or a subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the
event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the purchase right, the Offering Period with respect to
which such purchase right relates will be shortened by setting a new Purchase Date (the “New Purchase Date”) and
will end on the New Purchase Date. The New Purchase Date will occur on or prior to the consummation of the Corporate Transaction,
and the Plan will terminate on the consummation of the Corporate Transaction.
26. Tax
Qualification. Although Intrusion may endeavor to (i) qualify an option to purchase Intrusion Common Stock for favorable tax
treatment under the laws of the U.S. or (ii) avoid adverse tax treatment (e.g., under Section 409A of the Code), Intrusion makes no
representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain favorable or avoid unfavorable tax treatment,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan. Intrusion will be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to
the potential negative tax impact on Participants under the Plan.
