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

keeping with the objectives of the Plan and need not be uniform as to similarly
situated Participants.

4. Grants

(a) Grants under the Plan may consist of Options as described in Section 7,
Phantom Units as described in Section 8, Unit Awards as described in Section 9,
and UARs or Other Unit-Based Awards as described in Section 10. All Grants shall
be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee deems appropriate and

Letter.

(b) All Grants shall be made conditional upon the Participant’s acknowledgement,
in writing or by acceptance of the Grant, that all decisions and determinations
of the Committee shall be final and binding on the Participant, his or her
beneficiaries and any other person having or claiming an interest under such
Grant. Grants under a particular Section of the Plan need not be uniform as
among the Participants.

5. Units Subject to the Plan

(a) Units Authorized. The total aggregate number of Units that may be issued
under the Plan is 3,000,000 Units, subject to adjustment as described in
subsection (d) below.

(b) Limit on Unit Awards, Phantom Units and Other Unit-Based Awards. Within the
aggregate limit described in subsection (a), the maximum number of Units that
may be issued under the Plan pursuant to Unit Awards, Phantom Units and Other
Unit-Based Awards during the term of the Plan is 3,000,000 Units, subject to
adjustment as described in subsection (d) below.

(c) Source of Units; Unit Counting. Units issued under the Plan may be
authorized but unissued Units or reacquired Units, including Units purchased by
the Company on the open market for purposes of the Plan. If and to the extent
Options or UARs granted under the Plan terminate, expire, or are canceled,
forfeited, exchanged or surrendered without having been exercised, and if and to
the extent that any Unit Awards, Phantom Units, or Other Unit-Based Awards are
forfeited or terminated, or otherwise are not paid in full, the Units reserved
for such Grants shall again be available for purposes of the Plan. Units
surrendered in payment of the Exercise Price of an Option, and Units withheld or
surrendered for payment of taxes, shall not be available for re-issuance under
the Plan. If UARs are granted, the full number of Units subject to the UARs
shall be considered issued under the Plan, without regard to the number of Units
issued upon exercise of the UARs and without regard to any cash settlement of
the UARs. To the extent that a Grant of Phantom Units is designated in the Grant
Letter to be paid in cash, and not in Units, such Grants shall not count against
the Unit limits in subsection (a).

(d) Adjustments. If there is any change in the number or kind of Units
outstanding (i) by reason of a distribution in Units, spinoff, recapitalization,
Unit split, or combination or exchange of Units, (ii) by reason of a merger,
reorganization or consolidation, (iii) by reason of a reclassification, or
(iv) by reason of any other extraordinary or unusual event affecting the
outstanding Units as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration, or
if the value of

 

5

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

outstanding Units is substantially reduced as a result of a spinoff or the
Company’s payment of an extraordinary dividend or distribution, the maximum
number of Units available for issuance under the Plan, the kind and number of
Units covered by outstanding Grants, the kind and number of Units issued and to
be issued under the Plan, and the price per Unit or the applicable market value
of such Grants shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee to reflect any
increase or decrease in the number of, or change in the kind or value of, the
issued Units to preclude, to the extent practicable, the enlargement or dilution
of rights and benefits under the Plan and such outstanding Grants; provided,
however, that any fractional Units resulting from such adjustment shall be
eliminated. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control of the Company, the
provisions of Section 15 of the Plan shall apply. Any adjustments to outstanding
Grants shall be consistent with section 409A of the Code, to the extent
applicable. Any adjustments determined by the Committee shall be final, binding

foregoing, (i) if the vesting of Phantom Units is subject to achievement of
performance goals, the Phantom Units shall have a minimum vesting period of not
less than one year and (ii) if the vesting of Phantom Units is based on
employment or service but not subject to achievement of performance goals, the
Phantom Units shall not vest more quickly than ratably over a period of three

records for purposes of the Plan. Distribution Equivalents may be accrued as a
cash obligation, or may converted to additional Phantom Units for the
Participant, and deferred Distribution Equivalents may accrue interest, all as
determined by the Committee. The Committee may provide that Distribution
Equivalents shall be payable based on the achievement of specific performance
goals. Distribution Equivalents may be payable in cash or Units or in a
combination of the two, as determined by the Committee.

9. Unit Awards

(a) General Requirements. The Committee may issue Units to an Employee,
Consultant or Manager under a Unit Award, upon such terms and conditions as the
Committee deems appropriate under this Section 9. Units issued pursuant to Unit
Awards may be issued for cash consideration or for no cash consideration, and
subject to restrictions or no restrictions, as determined by the Committee. The
Committee may establish conditions under which restrictions on Unit Awards shall
lapse over a period of time or according to such other criteria as the Committee
deems appropriate, including restrictions based upon the achievement of specific
performance goals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if the vesting of Unit
Awards is subject to achievement of performance goals, the Unit Awards shall
have a minimum vesting period of not less than one year and (ii) if the vesting
of Unit Awards is based on employment or service but not subject to achievement
of performance goals, the Unit Awards shall not vest more quickly than ratably

Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the
Units of a Unit Award except upon death as described in Section 14(a). If
certificates are issued, each certificate for a Unit Award shall contain a
legend giving appropriate notice of the restrictions in the Grant. The
Participant shall be entitled to have the legend removed when all restrictions
on such Units have lapsed. The Company may retain possession of any certificates
for Unit Awards until all restrictions on such Units have lapsed.

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

(d) Right to Vote and to Receive Distributions. The Committee shall determine to
what extent, and under what conditions, the Participant shall have the right to
vote Units subject to Unit Awards and to receive any distributions paid on such
Units during the restriction period. The Committee may determine that
distributions on Unit Awards shall be withheld while the Unit Awards are subject
to restrictions and that the distributions shall be payable only upon the lapse
of the restrictions on the Unit Awards, or on such other terms as the Committee
determines. Distributions that are not paid currently shall be credited to
bookkeeping accounts on the Company’s records for purposes of the Plan.
Accumulated distributions may accrue interest, as determined by the Committee,
and shall be paid in cash, Units, or in such other form as distributions are
paid on Units, as determined by the Committee.

10. Unit Appreciation Rights and Other Unit-Based Awards

(a) UARs. The Committee may grant UARs to an Employee, Consultant or Manager
separately or in tandem with an Option, if and to the extent permitted by
section 409A of the Code. The following provisions are applicable to UARs:

(i) General Requirements. The Committee shall establish the number of Units, the
terms and the base amount of the UAR at the time the UAR is granted. The base
amount of each UAR shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of a Unit as of
the date of Grant of the UAR.

(ii) Tandem UARs. The Committee may grant tandem UARs either at the time the
Option is granted or at any time thereafter while the Option remains
outstanding. In the case of tandem UARs, the number of UARs granted to a
Participant that shall be exercisable during a specified period shall not exceed
the number of Units that the Participant may purchase upon the exercise of the
related Option during such period. Upon the exercise of an Option, the UARs
relating to the Unit covered by such Option shall terminate. Upon the exercise
of UARs, the related Option shall terminate to the extent of an equal number of
Units.

(iii) Exercisability. A UAR shall become exercisable in accordance with such
terms and conditions as may be specified. The Committee may grant UARs that are
subject to achievement of performance goals or other conditions. The Committee
may accelerate the exercisability of any or all outstanding UARs at any time for
any reason. The Committee shall determine in the Grant Letter under what
circumstances and during what periods a Participant may exercise an UAR after
termination of employment or service. A tandem UAR shall be exercisable only
while the Option to which it is related is exercisable.

(iv) Exercise of UARs. When a Participant exercises UARs, the Participant shall
receive in settlement of such UARs an amount equal to the value of the Unit
appreciation for the number of UARs exercised. The Unit appreciation for a UAR
is the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the underlying Unit on the date
of exercise of the UAR exceeds the base amount of the UAR as specified in the
Grant Letter.

(v) Form of Payment. The Committee shall determine whether the Unit appreciation
for an UAR shall be paid in the form of Units, cash or a combination of the two.

 

9

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

For purposes of calculating the number of Units to be received, Units shall be
valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of the UAR. If Units
are to be received upon exercise of an UAR, cash shall be delivered in lieu of
any fractional Unit.

(b) Other Unit-Based Awards. The Committee may grant other awards not specified
in Sections 7, 8 or 9 above that are based on or measured by Units to Employees,
Consultants and Managers, on such terms and conditions as the Committee deems
appropriate; provided that any full value awards shall be subject to the vesting
restrictions described in Section 8(b). Other Unit-Based Awards may be granted
subject to achievement of performance goals or other conditions and may be
payable in Units or cash, or in a combination of the two, as determined by the
Committee in the Grant Letter.

11. Performance-Based Compensation

(a) Performance Goals. When performance-based Grants are made, the Committee
shall establish in writing (i) the performance goals that must be met, (ii) the
period during which performance will be measured, (iii) the maximum amounts that
may be paid if the performance goals are met, and (iv) any other conditions that
the Committee deems appropriate.

(b) Criteria Used for Performance Goals. The Committee shall use performance
goals based on any criteria that the Committee deems appropriate, including the
following criteria with respect to APL: Unit price, earnings per Unit,
price-earnings multiples, net earnings, operating earnings, revenue, number of
days sales outstanding in accounts receivable, productivity, margin, EBITDA
(earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), net capital
employed, return on assets, Unit holder return, return on equity, return on
capital employed, growth in assets, Unit volume, sales, cash flow, market share,
relative performance to a comparison group designated by the Committee, or
strategic business criteria consisting of one or more objectives based on
meeting specified revenue goals, market penetration goals, customer growth,
geographic business expansion goals, cost targets or goals relating to
acquisitions or divestitures. The performance goals may relate to one or more
business units or the performance of APL and its subsidiaries as a whole, or any
combination of the foregoing. Performance goals need not be uniform as among
Participants.

(c) Certification of Results. The Committee shall certify the performance
results for the performance period specified in the Grant Letter after the
performance period ends. The Committee shall determine the amount, if any, to be
paid pursuant to each Grant based on the achievement of the performance goals
and the satisfaction of all other terms of the Grant Letter.

(d) Death, Disability or Other Circumstances. The Committee may provide in the
Grant Letter that performance-based Grants shall be payable, in whole or in
part, in the event of the Participant’s death or disability, a Change of Control
or under other circumstances determined by the Committee.

12. Deferrals

The Committee may permit or require a Participant to defer receipt of the
payment of cash or the delivery of Units that would otherwise be due to the
Participant in connection with

 

10

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

any Grant. The Committee shall establish rules and procedures for any such
deferrals, consistent with applicable requirements of section 409A of the Code.

13. Withholding of Taxes

(a) Required Withholding. All Grants under the Plan shall be subject to
applicable federal (including FICA), state and local tax withholding
requirements. The Company may require that the Participant or other person
receiving or exercising Grants pay to the Company the amount of any federal,
state or local taxes that the Company is required to withhold with respect to
such Grants, or the Company may deduct from other wages paid by the Company the
amount of any withholding taxes due with respect to such Grants. The Company may
require forfeiture of any Grant for which the Grantee does not timely pay the
applicable withholding taxes.

(b) Election to Withhold Units. If the Committee so permits, Units may be
withheld to satisfy the Company’s tax withholding obligation with respect to
Grants paid in Units, at the time such Grants become taxable, up to an amount
that does not exceed the minimum applicable withholding tax rate for federal
(including FICA), state and local tax liabilities.

14. Transferability of Grants

(a) Restrictions on Transfer. Except as described in subsection (b) below, only
the Participant may exercise rights under a Grant during the Participant’s
lifetime, and a Participant may not transfer those rights except by will or by
the laws of descent and distribution. When a Participant dies, the personal
representative or other person entitled to succeed to the rights of the
Participant may exercise such rights. Any such successor must furnish proof
satisfactory to the Company of his or her right to receive the Grant under the
Participant’s will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

(b) Transfer of Options to or for Family Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Committee may provide, in a Grant Letter, that a Participant may transfer
Options to family members, or one or more trusts or other entities for the
benefit of or owned by family members, consistent with the applicable securities
laws, according to such terms as the Committee may determine; provided that the
Participant receives no consideration for the transfer of an Option and the
transferred Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions
as were applicable to the Option immediately before the transfer.

15. Consequences of a Change of Control

(a) Upon a Change of Control, unless the Committee determines otherwise in the
Grant Letter, all Grants shall automatically vest and become payable or
exercisable, as the case may be, in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event of a Change of Control, the Committee may take any one or more of the
following actions with respect to any or all outstanding Grants, without the
consent of any Participant: (i) the Committee may require that Participants
surrender their outstanding Options and UARs for cancellation in exchange for
one or more payments by the Company, in cash or Units as determined by the
Committee, in an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which the then Fair
Market Value of the Units subject to

 

11

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

the Participant’s unexercised Options and UARs exceeds the Exercise Price or
base amount, as applicable, and on such terms as the Committee determines,
(ii) after giving Participants an opportunity to exercise their outstanding
Options and UARs, the Committee may terminate any or all unexercised Options and
UARs at such time as the Committee deems appropriate, (iii) with respect to
Participants holding Phantom Units, Other Unit-Based Awards or Distribution
Equivalents, the Committee may determine that such Participants shall receive
one or more payments in settlement of such Phantom Units, Other Unit-Based
Awards or Distribution Equivalents, in such amount and form and on such terms as
may be determined by the Committee, or (iv) the Committee may determine that
Grants that remain outstanding after the Change of Control shall be converted to
similar grants of the surviving entity (or a parent or subsidiary of the
surviving entity). Without limiting the foregoing, if the per Unit Fair Market
Value of the Units does not exceed the per Unit Exercise Price or base price of
an Option or UAR, the Company shall not be required to make any payment to the
Grantee upon surrender of the Option or UAR. Any acceleration, surrender,
termination, settlement or conversion shall take place as of the date of the
Change of Control or such other date as the Committee may specify.

(b) Other Transactions. The Committee may provide in a Grant Letter that a sale
or other transaction involving a subsidiary or other business unit shall be
considered a Change of Control for purposes of a Grant, or the Committee may
establish other provisions that shall be applicable in the event of a specified
transaction, including provisions to comply with section 409A of the Code, if
applicable.

16. Requirements for Issuance of Units

No Units shall be issued in connection with any Grant hereunder unless and until
all legal requirements applicable to the issuance of such Units have been
complied with to the satisfaction of the Committee. The Committee shall have the
right to condition any Grant made to any Participant hereunder on such
Participant’s undertaking in writing to comply with such restrictions on his or
her subsequent disposition of such Units as the Committee shall deem necessary
or advisable, and certificates representing such Units may be legended to
reflect any such restrictions. Certificates representing Units issued under the
Plan will be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as may
be required by applicable laws, regulations and interpretations, including any
requirement that a legend be placed thereon. No Participant shall have any right
as a Unit holder with respect to Units covered by a Grant until Units have been
issued to the Participant.

17. Amendment and Termination of the Plan

(a) Amendment. The Board may amend or terminate the Plan at any time; provided,
however, that the Board shall not amend the Plan without approval of the Unit
holders if such approval is required in order to comply with applicable stock
exchange requirements. No amendment or termination of this Plan shall, without
the consent of the Participant, materially impair any rights or obligations
under any Grant previously made to the Participant under the Plan, unless such
right has been reserved in the Plan or the Grant Letter, or except as provided
in Section 18(b) below. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary,
the Board may

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

amend the Plan in such manner as it deems appropriate in the event of a change
in applicable law or regulations.

(b) No Repricing. Except in connection with a transaction involving APL
(including without limitation, any distribution of Units, Unit split, APL’s
payment of an extraordinary distribution, recapitalization, reorganization,
merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange of Units),
the terms of outstanding Grants may not be amended to reduce the Exercise Price
or base amount, as applicable, of outstanding Options or UARs or cancel
outstanding Options or UARs in exchange for cash, other Grants or Options or
UARs with an Exercise Price or base amount that is less than the Exercise Price
or base amount of the original Options or UARs without Unit holder approval.

(c) Termination of Plan. The Plan shall terminate on the day immediately
preceding the tenth anniversary of its Effective Date, unless the Plan is
terminated earlier by the Board or is extended by the Board with the approval of
the Unit holders. The termination of the Plan shall not impair the power and
authority of the Committee with respect to an outstanding Grant.

18. Miscellaneous

(a) Grants in Connection with Corporate Transactions and Otherwise. Nothing
contained in this Plan shall be construed to (i) limit the right of the
Committee to make Grants under this Plan in connection with the acquisition, by
purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business or assets
of any corporation, firm or association, including Grants to employees thereof
who become Employees, or for other proper corporate purposes, or (ii) limit the
right of the Company to grant options or make other Unit-based awards outside of
this Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may make a Grant to an
employee of another corporation who becomes an Employee by reason of a corporate
merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock or property, reorganization or
liquidation involving APL in substitution for a grant made by such corporation.
The terms and conditions of the Grants may vary from the terms and conditions
required by the Plan and from those of the substituted grants, as determined by
the Committee

(b) Compliance with Law. The Plan, the exercise of Options and the obligations
of the Company to issue or transfer Units under Grants shall be subject to all
applicable laws and to approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may
be required. With respect to persons subject to section 16 of the Exchange Act,
it is the intent of the Company that the Plan and all transactions under the
Plan comply with all applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under
the Exchange Act. It is the intent of the Company, to the extent applicable,
that Grants comply with the requirements of section 409A of the Code or an
exception from such requirements. To the extent that any legal requirement of
section 16 of the Exchange Act or section 409A of the Code as set forth in the
Plan ceases to be required under section 16 of the Exchange Act or section 409A
of the Code, that Plan provision shall cease to apply. The Committee may revoke
any Grant if it is contrary to law or modify a Grant to bring it into compliance
with any valid and mandatory government regulation. The Committee may, in its
sole discretion, agree to limit its authority under this Section.

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

(c) Section 409A. The Plan and Grants under the Plan are intended to comply with
section 409A of the Code and its corresponding regulations, or an exemption, and
payments may only be made upon an event and in a manner permitted by section
409A, to the extent applicable. Notwithstanding anything in a Grant Letter to
the contrary, if required by section 409A, if a Participant is considered a
“specified employee” for purposes of section 409A and if payment of any amounts
under the Grant Letter is required to be delayed for a period of six months
after separation from service pursuant to section 409A, payment of such amounts
shall be delayed as required by section 409A, and the accumulated amounts shall
be paid in a lump sum payment within ten days after the end of the six-month
period (or within 60 days after the death of the Participant, if the Participant
dies during the postponement period). Under a Grant that is subject to 409A, all
payments to be made upon a termination of employment may only be made upon a
“separation from service” under section 409A and, unless the Grant Letter
provides otherwise, the right to a series of installment payments shall be
treated as a right to a series of separate payments. In no event may a
Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment
other than in accordance with section 409A.

(d) Enforceability. The Plan shall be binding upon and enforceable against the
Company and its successors and assigns.

(e) Funding of the Plan; Limitation on Rights. This Plan shall be unfunded. The
Company shall not be required to establish any special or separate fund or to
make any other segregation of assets to assure the payment of any Grants under
this Plan. Nothing contained in the Plan and no action taken pursuant hereto
shall create or be construed to create a fiduciary relationship between the
Company and any Participant or any other person. No Participant or any other
person shall under any circumstances acquire any property interest in any
specific assets of the Company. To the extent that any person acquires a right
to receive payment from the Company hereunder, such right shall be no greater
than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(f) Rights of Participants. Nothing in this Plan shall entitle any Employee,
Manager or other person to any claim or right to receive a Grant under this
Plan. Neither this Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as
giving any individual any rights to be retained by or in the employment or
service of the Employer.

(g) No Fractional Units. No fractional Units shall be issued or delivered
pursuant to the Plan or any Grant. The Committee shall determine whether cash,
other awards or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of such
fractional Units or whether such fractional Units or any rights thereto shall be
forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

(h) Employees Subject to Taxation Outside the United States. With respect to
Participants who are subject to taxation in countries other than the United
States, the Committee may make Grants on such terms and conditions as the
Committee deems appropriate to comply with the laws of the applicable countries,
and the Committee may create such procedures, addenda and subplans and make such
modifications as may be necessary or advisable to comply with such laws.

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

(i) Governing Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of the
Plan and Grant Letters issued under the Plan shall be governed and construed by
and determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without
giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof.

The Plan was amended by the Managing Board of the Company on April 26, 2011.
