TABLE OF CONTENTS

If an Award expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, is surrendered pursuant to an exchange program (as described further below), or is forfeited to or repurchased by the Company due to failure to vest, then the unpurchased Shares (or for Awards other than options or stock appreciation rights, the forfeited or repurchased Shares), which were subject thereto will become available for future grant or sale under the 2020 Plan (unless the 2020 Plan has terminated). With respect to stock appreciation rights that are settled in Shares, the gross number of Shares covered by the exercised portion of the Award will cease to be available under the 2020 Plan. Shares that actually have been issued under the 2020 Plan under any Award will not be returned to the 2020 Plan and will not become available for future distribution under the 2020 Plan; provided that if Shares under Awards of restricted stock, RSUs, performance shares or performance units are repurchased by the Company or are forfeited to the Company due to failure to vest, such Shares will become available for future grant under the 2020 Plan. Shares used to pay the exercise price of an Award or to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to an Award will not become available for future grant or sale under the 2020 Plan. To the extent an Award under the 2020 Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, the cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.
