R
Restricted Stock Agreement (“Agreement”)
Under the 2019 Entergy Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan

The Personnel Committee of the Board of Directors (“Committee”) of Entergy
Corporation has agreed to grant you (“Grantee”), pursuant to the 2019 Entergy
Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan, that number of Restricted Shares set forth
on the Restricted Stock Grant Notice to which this Agreement is attached (the
“Grant Notice”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
Plan.

1.         Effective Date of Restricted Stock Grant; Acknowledgment and
Acceptance of Restricted Stock Grant.  This grant of Restricted Shares is
effective as of the award date set forth on the Grant Notice (“Grant Date”),
contingent upon your acceptance of the Restricted Shares in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement and the Grant Notice. The effectiveness of this
Agreement is subject to your electronically acknowledging and accepting this
Agreement and all of its terms and conditions and the terms of the Plan in the
manner and at the time set forth on the Grant Notice. If you do not timely
acknowledge and accept this Agreement in accordance the Grant Notice, the
Company shall be entitled to unilaterally cancel and render void this Agreement
and the Grant Notice.

2.         Restricted Period. 
 
(a)        Except as otherwise provided in Subsection 2(b) to the contrary, and
except as provided in Section 12 of the Plan, the following vesting provisions
shall apply during the thirty-six (36)-months immediately following the Grant
Date (the “Restricted Period”):
 
(i)         Restrictions shall lift on one-third (1/3rd) of the total Restricted
Shares subject to this Agreement on each of the first three (3) anniversaries of
the Grant Date (each such anniversary, a “Vesting Date”), provided you (A) are
and remain a continuous full-time regular employee of a System Company at System
Management Level (“ML”) 1 through 6 through each such anniversary date or are,
or later become and then remain, a continuous part-time regular System Company
employee participating in the phased retirement program under the Entergy System
Policies & Procedures Phased Retirement - Pre-Separation Policy (the “Phased
Retirement Program”) through each such Vesting Date, and (B) comply with Section
12 of this Agreement.
 
(ii)        Unless solely attributable to your becoming a participant in the
Phased Retirement Program, and subject to Section 2(b) hereof, upon your
termination of continuous full-time regular employment to become a part-time
employee, or upon your demotion to a position below ML 6, you shall forfeit all
Restricted Shares on which restrictions have not already lifted in accordance
with Subsection 2(a)(i) at such time.
 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(iii)       Except as set forth in Section 2(b) below, upon your retirement or
termination from System Company employment for any reason or no reason
(including with or without Cause), you shall forfeit all Restricted Shares on
which restrictions have not already lifted in accordance with Subsection 2(a)(i)
at such time.
 
(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Subsection 2(a) to the
contrary, the following provisions shall govern to the extent applicable: 
 
(i)    If, during the Restricted Period, you die or incur a Disability while
actively employed as an eligible System Company employee in accordance with the
requirements set forth in Subsection 2(a)(i)(A) and you have continuously
satisfied the vesting criteria of Section 2(a)(i) through the date of your death
or Disability, then any then-remaining restrictions immediately shall lift on
all of the then-outstanding Restricted Shares on which restrictions have not
already lifted (as well as dividends declared on the Restricted Shares).
 
(ii)    If you are demoted to a position below ML 6 and you thereafter remain a
regular, full-time System Company employee until the immediately following
Vesting Date, then you shall remain eligible to vest, upon such Vesting Date, in
a pro-rated portion of the Restricted Shares on which restrictions were
otherwise scheduled to lift on such immediately following Vesting Date (as well
as dividends declared on such pro-rated portion of the Restricted Shares), which
pro-rated vested portion shall be determined by multiplying (A) a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the number of days between (x) the immediately
preceding Vesting Date or, if no Vesting Date has yet occurred, the Grant Date
and (y) the date of your demotion, and the denominator of which shall be 365,
times (B) that number of Restricted Shares on which restrictions were otherwise
scheduled to lift on the immediately following Vesting Date.
 
(iii)    Except as provided below for an employee on an extended leave of
absence bridge to retirement under an approved severance program under the
Entergy System Severance Pay Plan No. 537 or the Entergy System Severance Pay
Plan No. 538, if you are on a leave of absence (whether paid or unpaid) approved
by your System Company employer for reasons other than Disability or are a
continuous part-time regular System Company employee participating in the Phased
Retirement Program, you will be treated, solely for purposes of the Plan and
this Agreement, as continuing to satisfy the requirements of Subsection 2(a)(i)
while on such approved leave of absence or during such participation in the
Phased Retirement Program, as applicable. If your System Company employment
terminates during such approved leave of absence, the remaining provisions of
this Section 2 shall apply as if you were actively employed by your System
Company employer immediately prior to such termination event. If you are on an
extended leave of absence bridge to retirement under an approved severance
program under the Entergy System Severance Plan Pay No. 537 or the Entergy
System Severance Pay Plan No. 538, you will not be considered under the Plan or
this Agreement to be a full-time employee or part-time System Company employee
under the Phased Retirement Program during the extended leave of absence bridge
period, and your System Company employment will be considered terminated for
purposes of vesting in the Restricted Shares under this Agreement as of the
commencement of your extended leave of absence bridge period.
(iv)    Subject to the terms of this Agreement and Section 5 of the Plan, in the
event that (A) a Change in Control occurs and (B) either (1) outstanding
Restricted Shares are not assumed or substituted in connection therewith as
described in Section 12(b) of the Plan, or (2) outstanding Restricted Shares are
so assumed or substituted in connection therewith and your employment or service
is terminated by your System Company employer without Cause or by you for Good
Reason on or after the effective date of the Change in Control but prior to
twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control, then all restrictions
imposed hereunder on the Restricted Shares (as well as dividends declared on the
Restricted Shares) shall lift effective as of the date of the Change in Control,
if subclause (B)(1) applies, or as of the applicable termination date, if
subclause (B)(2) applies (whichever date so applies, the “CIC Vesting Date”) and
the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 12(b), (c) and (d) of this
Agreement shall cease to apply as of the CIC Vesting Date.

(v)    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if your employment with
your System Company employer terminates for Cause, then all Restricted Shares
shall immediately terminate and be forfeited.
   

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3.         Share Issuance.  During the Restricted Period, the Restricted Shares
shall be held in an account in book entry form and with the restrictions noted. 
 
4.         Lifting of Restrictions.  Upon the satisfaction of all requirements
for restrictions to lift on all or a portion of the Restricted Shares, the
restrictions on such Restricted Shares shall lift and such vested Shares
(including any dividends on such Restricted Shares) shall be credited to a
separate book entry account in your name, and such vested shares shall be free
of all restrictions except any that may be imposed by law.  Upon the crediting
of Shares in respect of Restricted Shares upon which restrictions have lifted to
a book entry account, participants may treat the Shares in the same manner as
all other shares of Common Stock owned by the participant.  All Participants
with ML 1-4 status (“ML 1-4 Participants”) are considered “Restricted Employees”
under Entergy’s Insider Trading Policy and, as such, may trade in Entergy
Corporation securities only during an open window period (and only if not in
possession of material, non-public information). Generally, window periods begin
on the second business day after the quarterly earnings release and end at the
close of trading on the 15th day of the third month of the Company’s fiscal
quarter or, if such day is not a trading day, on the last preceding trading day.
In addition, if you are a Restricted Employee, the Insider Trading Policy
requires that you pre-clear all transactions involving Entergy securities with
Entergy Corporation’s Office of the General Counsel.

5.        Common Stock Ownership Guidelines.  If you are an ML 1-4 Participant,
you must maintain the applicable Common Stock Ownership Target Level in the
chart below, which is expressed as a multiple of your base salary and dependent
on your ML.
 
System Management Level
Common Stock Ownership Target Level
ML1
6 times base salary
ML2
3 times base salary
ML3
2 times base salary
ML4
1 times base salary

            
These ownership multiples may be satisfied through any shares of Common Stock
held by the ML 1-4 Participant, including Restricted Shares on which
restrictions have not yet lifted, shares of Common Stock held in tax-qualified
401(k) plans, etc.  Until you achieve your multiple of base salary ownership
position, upon restrictions lifting on your Restricted Shares, you must continue
to retain the book entry shares until the earlier of (a) achieving and
maintaining your applicable Common Stock Ownership Target Level, or (b) your
termination of full-time employment with all System Companies.  Once you have
achieved and maintain your Common Stock Ownership Target Level, you are no
longer bound to hold the Restricted Shares converted to book entry shares upon
restrictions lifting.  However, you are still subject to the trading
restrictions and pre-clearance requirements in transacting in these Shares
described in Section 4 of this Agreement.
 
6.       Withholding Taxes.  The Company shall use the “net shares method” to
satisfy any tax withholding obligation, which means the Company shall reduce the
number of Shares otherwise payable to you in respect of Restricted Shares upon
which the restrictions have lifted by the number of Shares with a value
necessary to cover up to the maximum amount of such obligation in any applicable
jurisdiction. In no event shall the Company or any other System Company have any
liability to you for your individual income tax liability, for withholding or
failing to withhold taxes, or for remitting or failing to remit taxes with
respect to your income.

7.         No Fractional Shares.    Any fractional Shares to be distributed
shall be settled in cash and applied to satisfy tax withholding requirements.
The Company will not pay out any fractional Shares.
 
8.         Shareholder Rights.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth
herein and in the Plan, as the Grantee of the Restricted Shares you shall have
all rights as a Company shareholder, including, but not limited to, voting
rights, the right to receive vested dividends and the right to participate in
any capital adjustment applicable to all holders of Common Stock. 
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any and all dividends paid with respect
to the Restricted Shares shall be reinvested in Common Stock based on the Fair
Market Value of the Common Stock on the date the

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dividend is paid and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and
risks of forfeiture as applicable to the underlying Restricted Shares and shall
also be subject to any other provisions or different or additional reinvestment
requirements as the Committee may, in its discretion, determine.  You shall have
the same rights and privileges, and be subject to the same restrictions, with
respect to any additional or substitute shares of Common Stock received pursuant
to Section 5 of the Plan.
 
9.         No Code Section 83(b) Election. This Award of Restricted Shares is
conditioned upon you refraining from making an election with respect to the
Award under Section 83(b) of the Code.
  
10.        Restricted Shares Nontransferable.  None of the Restricted Shares
shall be sold, exchanged, pledged, transferred, assigned, or otherwise
encumbered, hypothecated or disposed of by you (or your designated beneficiary)
other than by will or laws of descent and distribution.
 
11.       Entergy Policies.
 
(a)  Hedging Policy.  Pursuant to the Entergy Corporation Policy Relating to
Hedging, as adopted by the Board at its meeting held on December 3, 2010, and as
in effect on the date hereof, officers, directors and employees are prohibited
from entering into hedging or monetization transactions involving Common Stock
so they continue to own Common Stock with the full risks and rewards of
ownership, thereby ensuring continued alignment of their objectives with the
Company’s other shareholders.  Participation in any hedging transaction with
respect to Common Stock (including Restricted Shares) is prohibited.

(b)  Recoupment Policy; Dodd-Frank; Payment in Error.  Pursuant to the Entergy
Corporation Policy Relating to Recoupment of Certain Compensation, as adopted by
the Board at its meeting held on December 3, 2010, and as in effect on the date
hereof, the Company is allowed to seek reimbursement of certain incentive
compensation (including Restricted Shares) from “executive officers” for
purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, if
the Company is required to restate its financial statements due to material
noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the federal
securities laws (other than corrections resulting from changes to accounting
standards); or there is a material miscalculation of a performance measure
relative to incentive compensation, regardless of the requirement to restate the
financial statements; or the Board determines that an executive officer engaged
in fraud resulting in either a restatement of the Company’s financial statements
or a material miscalculation of a performance measure relative to incentive
compensation whether or not the financial statements were restated.  In
addition, the Restricted Shares are subject to any forfeiture and/or recoupment
policy which the Company has adopted or may adopt under the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and implementing rules and
regulations thereunder, or as may be required by applicable law. To the maximum
extent permitted by applicable law, in the event that a payment is made to you
(whether in cash, stock or other property) in error that exceeds the amount to
which you are entitled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Plan,
including without limitation pursuant to Section 28 of the Plan (such excess
amount, an “Excess Payment”), you will repay to the Company, and the Company
shall have the right to recoup from you such Excess Payment by notifying you in
writing of the nature and amount of such Excess Payment together with (i) demand
for direct repayment to the Company by you in the amount of such Excess Payment
or (ii) reduction of any amount(s) owed to you by the Company or any other
System Company by the amount of the Excess Payment.
12.       Confidentiality and Restrictive Covenants. In consideration of the
grant to you of the Restricted Shares set forth herein, you hereby agree to the
following restrictive covenants:
(a)    Confidential Information. You acknowledge that the System Companies have
unique methods and processes for the generation, transmission and distribution
and sale of energy products, which give them a competitive advantage, including
strategic and non-public plans for their products, geographic and customer
markets, and for marketing, distributing and selling their products. You further
acknowledge that you have held a position of confidence and trust with respect
to the System Companies and that you have and will acquire additional detailed
knowledge of the System Companies’ unique and confidential methods of doing
business and plans for the future. You acknowledge that the System Companies are
expending and will continue to expend substantial amounts of time, money and
effort to develop effective business and regulatory strategies, methodologies
and technology. You also

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

acknowledge that the System Companies have a compelling business interest in
protecting the System Companies’ Confidential Information (as defined below) and
that the System Companies would be seriously and irreparably damaged by the
disclosure of Confidential Information. You therefore agree that, during your
employment or other service with any System Company and at all times thereafter,
you will hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the System Companies
and, other than as authorized in writing by the General Counsel of the Company
or as required by law or in the proper performance of your duties and
responsibilities, or as otherwise provided in this Section 12, you will not
disclose, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity, or use, for any
purpose other than the furtherance of your responsibilities to any System
Company, any Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement,
“Confidential Information” means information that is not generally known by
persons outside the System Companies and could not easily be determined or
learned by someone outside the System Companies, including without limitation,
any and all information and knowledge, whether or not explicitly designated as
confidential and whether or not reduced to writing, regarding (i) the System
Companies’ utility business, including, without limitation, the generation,
transmission, brokering, marketing, distribution, sale and delivery of electric
power or generation capacity (through regulated utilities or otherwise), and
their natural gas distribution business, (ii) the Entergy Wholesale Commodities
business, including, without limitation, the ownership, development, management
or operation of power plants and power generation facilities (including, without
limitation, nuclear power plants), and the provision of operations and
management services (including, without limitation, decommissioning services)
with respect to power plants, and the sale of the electric power produced by the
System Companies’ operating plants to wholesale customers, (iii) the System
Companies’ proprietary methods and methodology, technical data, trade secrets,
know-how, research and development information, product plans, customer lists,
specific information relating to products, services and customers or prospective
customers (including, but not limited to, customers or prospective customers of
any System Company with whom you became or become acquainted during your
relationship with the System Company), books and records of any System Company,
corporate, regulatory, customer and strategic relationships, suppliers, markets,
computer software, computer software development, inventions, processes,
formulae, technology, designs, drawings, technical information, source codes,
engineering information, hardware configuration information, and matters of a
business nature such as information regarding marketing, costs, pricing,
finances, financial models and projections, billings, new or existing business
or economic development plans, initiatives, and opportunities, or any other
similar business information made available to you in connection with your
relationship with any System Company and (iv) any attorney-client privileged
information of a System Company. Confidential Information shall also include
non-public information concerning any director, officer, employee, shareholder,
or partner of any System Company. You agree that your obligation not to disclose
or use Confidential Information, and your obligation, detailed below, to return
and, upon your termination of employment with all System Companies, not to
retain materials and tangible property described in this Section shall also
extend to such types of information, materials and tangible property of
customers of and suppliers to the System Companies and to other third parties,
in each case who may have disclosed or entrusted the same to you or any System
Company during your employment with any System Company.
(b)    Non-Competition. You agree that (i) at all times during the period of
your employment or service with any System Company employer, and (ii) if you are
an ML 1-4 Participant immediately prior to your date of termination then for one
(1) year following the termination for any reason of your employment by or
service with your last System Company employer ((i) and (ii) collectively, as
applicable, the “Non-Compete Period”), you will not engage in Competing
Employment. For purposes of this Section 12, “Competing Employment” means
working for, providing services to or otherwise directly or indirectly assisting
(whether or not for compensation) any person, entity or business which directly
or indirectly competes with any part of the System Company business, and such
employment or services involves products, services and business activities that
are the same as or similar to those you provided to a System Company, or as to
which you had access to Confidential Information, in the two years preceding
your termination of employment or service with all System Companies. You agree
that it is reasonable for the restriction contained in this paragraph to apply
in each and every county, province, state, city, parish or other political
subdivision or territory of the United States in which any System Company
engages in any business activity, or otherwise distributes, licenses or sells
its products or services, including, without limitation, Arkansas, Connecticut,
District of Columbia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska,
New York, Texas, and Vermont and any other state in which any System Company
engages in business at any time and, with respect to the State of Louisiana,
means the following Parishes: Acadia, Allen, Ascension, Assumption, Avoyelles,
Beauregard, Bienville, Bossier, Caddo, Calcasieu, Caldwell, Cameron, Catahoula,
Claiborne, Concordia, De Soto, East Baton Rouge, East Carroll, East

Feliciana, Evangeline, Franklin, Grant, Iberia, Iberville, Jackson, Jefferson,
Jefferson Davis, Lafayette, Lafourche, La Salle, Lincoln, Livingston, Madison,
Morehouse, Natchitoches, Orleans, Ouachita, Plaquemines, Point Coupee, Rapides,
Red River, Richland, Sabine, Saint Bernard, St. Charles, St. Helena, Saint

Tammany, Tangipahoa, Tensas, Terrebonne, Union, Vermilion, Vernon, Washington,
Webster, West Baton Rouge, West Carroll, West Feliciana and Winn (the
“Restricted Territory”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your employment is
terminated by any System Company employer without Cause, the covenant not to
compete set forth in this Section 12(b) shall apply only for as long as the
System Company employer continues to pay you, in accordance with the System
Company employer’s regular payroll practices and schedule, your bi-weekly base
salary in effect on the effective date of the termination of your employment,
less any applicable tax withholdings and ordinary deductions (such payments, the
“Non-Compete Payments”), but in no such event for longer than the Non-Compete
Period. In any instance where a System Company employer has the right to elect
to make Non-Compete Payments, such System Company employer must notify you in
writing of such election, and the duration for which it elects to make
Non-Compete Payments, within ten (10) business days following the termination of
your employment from the System Company. If the System Company elects to make
the Non-Compete Payments for less than the full Non-Compete Period, you shall be
free to join a competitor after you cease receiving the Non-Compete Payments.
For the purposes of clarity, in the event of your termination for Cause or
voluntary resignation, you shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in
this Section 12(b) without any requirement that your System Company employer pay
you any Non-Compete Payments.
(c)    Non-Solicitation. You agree that, while you are employed by any System
Company and during the Non-Compete Period (or, if later, the last day you are
scheduled to receive cash severance payments from your System Company employer
pursuant to any severance plan or other agreement), except in the good faith
performance of your duties to the System Companies, you shall not, other than as
authorized in writing by the General Counsel of the Company: (i) directly or
indirectly, solicit or seek to hire or identify for potential hiring (whether on
your own behalf or on behalf of any other person, entity or organization) any
person who is at that time (or was during the prior six (6) months) an employee
or consultant of any System Company, or (ii) within the Restricted Territory,
directly or indirectly solicit the trade, business or patronage of any clients,
customers or vendors or prospective clients, customers or vendors of any System
Company to provide competing products or services or advise, or assist such
clients, customers or vendors or prospective clients, customers or vendors to in
any way modify their relationship with any System Company. The foregoing
non-solicitation (1) shall not be violated by general advertising not targeted
at the forgoing persons or entities; (2) shall not apply to solicitation of
persons involuntarily terminated from System Company employment; and (3) shall
only apply to persons or entities (A) who reported directly or indirectly to
you; (B) with whom you had material contact while at a System Company; or (C)
about whom or which you possessed (i) information regarding quality of
performance while they were employed by a System Company, which information you
would not otherwise have except for the position you held with a System Company,
or (ii) Confidential Information.
(d)    Non-Disparagement. You agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, you will not at any time (whether during or after your
employment or service with any System Company), other than in the proper
performance of your duties, publish or communicate to any person or entity any
“Disparaging” (as defined below) remarks, comments or statements concerning any
System Company or any of their respective directors, officers, shareholders,
employees, agents, attorneys, successors and assigns. “Disparaging” remarks,
comments or statements are those that are intended to, or could be construed in
a manner so as to, impugn, discredit, injure or impair the business, reputation,
character, honesty, integrity, judgment, morality or business acumen or
abilities of the individual or entity being disparaged.
(e)    System Company Property. All tangible materials, equipment, devices,
documents, copies of documents, data compilations (in whatever form), software
programs, and electronically created or stored materials that you receive or
create in the course of employment with a System Company are and shall remain
the property of the System Company and you shall immediately return (and/or
cooperate in the supervised deletion of) such property to your System Company
employer upon the termination of your employment, for whatever reason. The
obligation to return property and documents extends to anything received or made
during and as a result of employment by a System Company, regardless of whether
it was received from a System Company or a third party, such as an actual or
potential vendor or customer, and regardless of whether a document contains
Confidential Information. The only

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

documents not subject to the obligation to return are documents directly
relating to your compensation and benefits, such as your pay stubs and benefit
plan information.
(f)     Violation of the Restrictive Covenant Section. In the event that you
violate any provision of this Section 12, the time periods set forth in those
paragraphs shall be extended for the period of time you remain in violation of
the provisions, to the greatest extent allowed by applicable law. The provisions
of Sections 12(a) - (e) hereof are, and shall be construed as, independent
covenants, and no claimed or actual breach of any contractual or legal duty by
any System Company shall excuse or terminate your obligations hereunder or
preclude any System Company from obtaining injunctive relief for your violation,
or threatened violation, of any of those provisions. You also agree to indemnify
and hold the System Companies harmless from any and all losses (including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses incurred to
enforce this Agreement) suffered by any System Company as a result of any
violation or threatened violation of any of your representations, warranties,
covenants or undertakings set forth in this Agreement (in addition to any other
remedies available to the System Companies set forth in Section 12(i) below),
provided that a System Company is found to be the prevailing party in any such
action.
(g)    Exclusions. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 12 or in this
Agreement to the contrary:
(1)    The restrictive covenants in this Section 12 are not intended to restrict
you from cooperating with any investigation or proceeding initiated by the
Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”) or any other federal or state regulatory
agency. Further, you may make disclosure (A) to exercise your rights as a
whistleblower under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act of 2010, the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 21F-17(a), or any other
federal or state law providing whistleblower rights; (B) to the extent necessary
when providing safety-related or other information to the NRC on matters within
the NRC’s regulatory jurisdiction; (C) when participating in “protected
activities,” as defined in Section 211 of the Energy Reorganization Act of 1974
and in C.F.R. Part 50.7; (D) when engaging in activities protected by the
National Labor Relations Act or any similar federal or state law; or (E) when
required to do so by a court of law, by any governmental agency or
administrative or legislative body with jurisdiction to order you to divulge,
disclose or make accessible such information. With the exception of Confidential
Information subject to the attorney-client privilege, you shall have no
obligation to seek prior approval of any System Company or to inform any System
Company of such disclosure. This Agreement does not limit your ability to
communicate, without notice to any System Company, with any government agencies
or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be
conducted by any government agency, or to collect a reward in connection with
any whistleblower information provided to a government agency.
(2)    Defend Trade Secrets Act Immunity Notice. Pursuant to the Defend Trade
Secrets Act of 2016, non-compliance with the disclosure provisions of this
Agreement shall not subject you to criminal or civil liability under any Federal
or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a System Company trade secret:
(A) in confidence to a Federal, State or local government official, either
directly or indirectly, or to an attorney in confidence solely for the purpose
of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; (B) in a complaint
or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, provided that any
complaint or document containing the trade secret is filed under seal; or (C) to
an attorney representing you in a lawsuit for retaliation by any System Company
for reporting a suspected violation of law or to use the trade secret
information in that court proceeding, provided that any document containing the
trade secret is filed under seal and you do not disclose the trade secret,
except pursuant to court order.
(h)    Restrictive Covenants Contained in Other Agreements. Notwithstanding any
provision contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that you are or become
subject to any other agreement that contains restrictive covenants different
from the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement, the restrictive
covenants set forth in such other agreement shall supplement, and shall not
replace, the restrictive covenants herein.
(i)    Enforcement. You hereby agree that the covenants set forth in this
Section 12 are reasonable with respect to their scope, duration, and
geographical area. You further agree and acknowledge that the restrictions
contained in Section 12 do not and would not unreasonably impose limitations on
your ability to earn a living. If any court or other tribunal determines that
any term or provision of Section 12 is overbroad or otherwise invalid or
unenforceable, you and the Company hereby agree that such court or tribunal
shall have the power and obligation to

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

narrow or otherwise reform the unenforceable term or provision, including to
delete, replace, or add specific words or phrases, but only to the narrowest
extent necessary to render the provision valid and enforceable (provided that in
no event shall the length of any restrictive covenant or its scope be extended
or expanded), and this Agreement shall be fully enforceable as so modified. Your
agreement to the restrictions provided for in this Agreement and the Company’s
agreement to grant the Award are mutually dependent consideration. Therefore,
notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement, if (A)
the enforceability of any material restriction applicable to you as provided for
in this Section 12 is challenged and found unenforceable by a court or other
tribunal or (B) you breach any of the provisions of Section 12, then the Company
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and recover from you all Shares
paid to you pursuant to this Agreement and, if you have sold, transferred, or
otherwise disposed of any Common Stock paid to you pursuant to this Agreement in
respect of Restricted Shares on which the restrictions have lifted or in respect
of dividends paid thereon, an amount equal to the aggregate Fair Market Value of
such Shares on the date on which such restrictions lifted. This provision shall
be construed as a return of consideration or ill-gotten gains due to the failure
of your promises and consideration under the Agreement, and not as a liquidated
damages clause. In addition, in the event of the Company’s termination of this
Agreement, you shall immediately forfeit all Restricted Shares on which
restrictions have not already lifted (as well as dividends declared on the
Restricted Shares). You further hereby agree that, in the event of a breach by
you of any of the provisions of Sections 12(a), (b), (c), (d), or (e), monetary
damages shall not constitute a sufficient remedy. Consequently, in the event of
any such breach or threatened breach, the Company or a System Company may, in
addition to and without prejudice to other rights and remedies existing in its
favor, apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for specific performance
and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations
of the provisions hereof, without the requirement of posting a bond or proving
actual damages and without having to demonstrate that money damages would be
inadequate. You acknowledge (i) that you have carefully read this Agreement and
have given careful consideration to the restraints imposed upon you by this

and proper protection of the Confidential Information of the System Companies

with its terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
terms of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 12 shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and shall remain in full force according to
their respective terms.

an ML 1-4 employee with your last System Company employer, in the event you seek

covenant provisions to any prospective employer, and you consent to any System
Company showing these provisions to any third party believed by a System Company

you, and to insisting on your compliance with these terms. Your obligations
under this Section will expire on that date which is twelve months after the end
of your employment with all System Companies (or, if later, the last date as of
which you are scheduled to receive separation payments from any System Company
pursuant to a severance plan or other agreement).
