4.     Termination of Service; Disability. 
(a)    Termination of Service for Cause. Upon the Participant’s termination of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for Cause prior to the TSR Vesting Date or the FCF Vesting Date, the unvested portion, if any, of the Participant’s Performance Award shall be forfeited as of the date of such termination of service. 
(b)    Termination of Service on Account of Death.

The vested Performance Award (determined in accordance with the foregoing and including any portion of the FCF Performance Award that was earned prior to the Participant’s death in accordance with Exhibit B for any completed FCF Performance Period) shall be settled in shares of Company Stock for the benefit of the 


2







Participant’s estate no later than the later to occur of (i) the end of the calendar year in which the Participant’s death occurs or (ii) the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following the Participant’s death.
(c)    Termination of Service on Account of Voluntary Retirement with Consent of Company. If the Participant voluntarily Retires with the consent of the Company prior to the TSR Vesting Date or the FCF Vesting Date, the Participant’s Performance Award shall continue to be eligible to vest in accordance with the performance-based vesting conditions set forth on Exhibit A and Exhibit B, as applicable, regardless of such termination of service.
(d)    Disability. If the Participant incurs a Disability that also constitutes a “disability” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code prior to the TSR Vesting Date or the FCF Vesting Date, the Participant’s Performance Award shall continue to be eligible to vest in accordance with the performance-based vesting conditions set forth on Exhibit A and Exhibit B, as applicable, regardless of any subsequent termination of service.
(e)    Termination of Service by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason. 
(i)    Upon termination of the Participant’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its Subsidiaries without Cause prior to the TSR Vesting Date, a portion of the Participant’s TSR Performance Award shall vest based upon achievement of the TSR Performance Criteria (as defined in Exhibit A) measured as of the date of the Participant’s termination of service, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months of the Participant’s service during the TSR Performance Period and the denominator of which is the total number of months in the TSR Performance Period. The vested portion of the TSR Performance Award shall be settled in shares of Company Stock as soon as practicable following the Participant’s termination of service, but no later than the later to occur of (A) the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs or (B) the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee (or such individual or individuals authorized by the Committee) may exercise discretion to determine payout achievement.  Any portion of the TSR Performance Award that could have been earned in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(e)(i) that is not earned as of the date of the Participant’s termination of service shall be immediately forfeited on the date of the Participant’s termination of service. 
(ii)    Upon termination of the Participant’s service with the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its Subsidiaries without Cause prior to the FCF Vesting Date but after the Company’s first approval of estimated Free Cash Flow for the FCF Performance Period in which such termination of service occurs, the Participant’s FCF Performance Award in respect of such FCF Performance Period shall vest based upon achievement of the most recently approved estimate of Free Cash Flow for the applicable FCF Performance Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months of Participant’s service during the current FCF Performance Period and the denominator of which is twelve (12). If such termination occurs prior to the FCF Vesting Date and prior to the Company’s first approval of estimated Free Cash Flow for the FCF Performance Period in which 


3







such termination of service occurs, then the Participant shall not vest in any portion of the FCF Performance Award in respect of the FCF Performance Period in which such termination of service occurs. The vested portion of the FCF Performance Award determined in accordance with the foregoing (plus any portion of the Participant’s FCF Performance Award for which the FCF Performance Criteria (as defined in Exhibit B) has been achieved in respect of any previously completed FCF Performance Period) shall be settled in shares of Company Stock immediately following such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing the Committee (or such individual or individuals authorized by the Committee) may exercise discretion to determine payout achievement.  Any portion of the FCF Performance Award that could have been earned in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4(e)(ii) that is not earned as of the date of the Participant’s termination of service shall be immediately forfeited on the date of the Participant’s termination of service.
(iii)    If a Participant is a party to an employment agreement with the Company or a Subsidiary and such employment agreement provides for benefits on a termination of employment for “Good Reason,” (x) a termination of the Participant’s employment for Good Reason shall constitute a termination without Cause for purposes of Sections 4 and 5 and (y) Good Reason will also include the Participant’s termination of employment within ninety (90) days following the expiration of the employment term of the Participant’s employment agreement under circumstances that would have constituted Good Reason had such termination occurred during the employment term.
(f)    Termination of Service for any Other Reason. Unless otherwise provided in an individual agreement with the Participant, if the Participant has a termination of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries prior to the TSR Vesting Date or the FCF Vesting Date for any reason other than the reasons enumerated in Subparagraphs (a) through (e) above, the Participant’s Performance Award as of the date of termination of service shall be forfeited.
5.     Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the TSR Vesting Date or the FCF Vesting Date, as applicable, the provisions of this Section 5 shall apply. 
(a)    if the entire Performance Award is assumed or substituted (within the meaning of the Plan) in connection with such Change in Control, and the Participant incurs a termination of service from the Company and its Subsidiaries by the Company or its Subsidiary without Cause during the 24-month period following such Change in Control, then the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any portion of the Performance Award shall lapse and: 
(i)    the TSR Performance Award shall be settled in shares of Company Stock as soon as practicable following the Participant’s termination of service, but no later than the later to occur of the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs or the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following such termination, based on the greater of (y) actual achievement of TSR Performance Criteria or (z) target achievement of the TSR Performance Criteria, in either case measured as of the date of such termination, and 


4







(ii)    the FCF Performance Award shall be settled as soon as practicable following the Participant’s termination of service, but no later than the later to occur of the end of the calendar year in which such termination occurs or the fifteenth day of the third calendar month following such termination, with the number of shares equal to the sum of (y) the number of shares of Company Stock underlying any portion of the Participant’s FCF Performance Award for which the FCF Performance Criteria has been achieved in respect of any previously completed FCF Performance Period and (z) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to any portion of the FCF Performance Award for any FCF Performance Period not completed multiplied by one (1) or, if greater, a multiple determined based upon achievement of the most recently approved estimate of Free Cash Flow.
(b)    if any portion of the Performance Award is not assumed or substituted in connection with such Change in Control, then the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions, and forfeiture conditions applicable to any portion of the Performance Award shall lapse and:
(i)    the TSR Performance Award shall be settled in shares of Company Stock immediately prior to the Change in Control based on the greater of (1) actual achievement of TSR Performance Criteria or (2) target achievement of the TSR Performance Criteria, in either case measured as of the date of the Change in Control, and 
(ii)    the FCF Performance Award shall be settled immediately prior to the Change in Control, with the number of shares equal to the sum of (y) the number of shares of Company Stock underlying any portion of the Participant’s FCF Performance Award for which the FCF Performance Criteria has been achieved in respect of any previously completed FCF Performance Period and (z) the number of shares of Company Stock subject to any portion of the FCF Performance Award for any FCF Performance Period not completed multiplied by one (1) or, if greater, a multiple determined based upon achievement of the most recently approved estimate of Free Cash Flow. 
(c)    Any portion of the Performance Award that could have been earned in accordance with Section 5(a) or Section 5(b) that is not earned shall be immediately forfeited on the date of termination of service or the date the Change in Control occurs, as applicable.

(c)    There is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Company or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company with any other corporation or other entity, other than (A) a merger or consolidation which results in (i) the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, at least 60% of the combined voting power of the securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation and (ii) the individuals who comprise the Board of Directors immediately prior thereto constituting immediately thereafter at least a majority of the board of directors of the Company, the entity surviving such merger or consolidation or, if the Company or the entity surviving such merger is then a subsidiary, the ultimate parent thereof, or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no Person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company (not including in the securities Beneficially Owned by such Person any securities acquired directly from the Company or its Affiliates) representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities; or
(d)    The shareholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or there is consummated an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (it being conclusively presumed that any sale or disposition is a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets if the consummation of the sale or disposition is contingent upon approval by the Company’s shareholders unless the Board of Directors expressly determines in writing that such approval is required solely by reason of any relationship between the Company and any other Person or an Affiliate of the Company and any other Person), other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity (A) at least 60% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale or disposition and (B) the majority of whose board of

9.     No Rights to Continuation of Service. Nothing in the Plan or this Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof or shall interfere with or restrict the right of the Company or its 


7







shareholders (or of a Subsidiary or its shareholders, as the case may be) to terminate the Participant’s service at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause.
10.    Tax Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the Participant and/or to deduct from the Performance Award granted hereunder or other compensation payable to the Participant any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld or to satisfy any applicable payroll deductions with respect to the vesting of, lapse of restrictions on, or payment of the Performance Award, up to the maximum statutory tax rates. A Participant who is an officer or director subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act as of the date of the withholding requirement may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery shares of Company Stock in accordance with Section 12(b) of the Plan.

Upon the expiration of the applicable waiting period set forth in the preceding sentence, all payments and benefits deferred pursuant to this Paragraph 11 (whether they would have otherwise been payable in a single lump sum or in installments in the absence of such deferral) shall be paid to such Participant in a lump sum as soon as practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) calendar days, following such expired period, and any remaining payments due under this Award Agreement will be paid in accordance with the normal payment dates specified for them herein. 
12.    Governing Law. This Award Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws, and not the laws pertaining to conflicts or choice of laws, of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed wholly within the State of Delaware.

	2

	Equal to or greater than 107.5% of Target but less than 110% of Target
	1.75

	Equal to or greater than 105% of Target but less than 107.5% of Target

*Free Cash Flow for each FCF Performance Period associated with the 2018 FCF Performance Award must equal or exceed the following minimum Free Cash Flow: 50% of actual annual adjusted net income for the relevant FCF Performance Period.
If Free Cash Flow is equal to or greater than 95% of Target but below 110% of Target, the Participant will earn a number of shares of Company Stock that is the mathematical linear interpolation between the number of shares of Company Stock that would be earned at the defined ends of the applicable spectrum. No such interpolation shall occur in the event that Free Cash Flow is less than 95% of Target or equal to or greater than 110% of Target.
The determination of Free Cash Flow will be made in the sole discretion of the Committee, after the end of the applicable FCF Performance Period once the applicable year-end audit is available. The Committee may adjust the FCF Performance Award in a manner approved by the Committee at the time of the grant of the FCF Performance Award. The Committee has discretion to increase the portion of the Participant’s FCF Performance Award earned based upon the overall performance of the Company and/or the Participant or based upon any change in business conditions.
