Board, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the vesting of a Benefit at any time. The Board may, for such consideration (if any) as it may deem adequate and with the prior consent of the Participant, modify the terms of any outstanding Option or
stock appreciation rights; provided, however, that except to the extent permitted by Section 6.5, no Option or stock appreciation right may be repriced, replaced or regranted through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of such
Option or stock appreciation right, and no Option or stock appreciation right with an exercise price that exceeds Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock shall be canceled, purchased or exchanged for a cash payment, without shareholder
approval. 
 6.5 Special Modification in the Event of a Corporate Transaction. In the event of a corporate transaction (within the
meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.424-1(a)(3)), the Board may provide for the assumption or substitution of outstanding Options or stock appreciation rights, provided that the requirements of Treas. Reg. §

reason of cancellation, cash buyout or exchange of an underwater Option, without shareholder approval.

Board. In order to maintain a Participant’s rights in the event of a Change in Control, the Board, in its sole discretion, may, in any Agreement evidencing a Benefit, or at any time prior to, simultaneously with or after a Change in
Control, provide such protection as it may deem necessary. Without, in any way, limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions or requiring any specific protection, the Board may: 

(a) provide for the acceleration of any time periods relating to the exercise or realization of such Benefit so that such Benefit may be
exercised or realized in full on or before a date fixed by the Board; 
 (b) provide for the purchase of such Benefit, upon the
Participant’s request, for an amount of cash equal to the amount which could have been attained upon the exercise or realization of such Benefit had such Benefit been currently exercisable or payable;

CONDITIONS OF BENEFITS

Board. All capitalized terms used in an Agreement shall have the same meaning as in the Plan, except as otherwise provided in the Agreement. An Agreement shall be subject to all of the terms of the Plan.

Date of Grant (except to the extent awards are assumed or substituted in connection with a corporate transaction as described in Section 6.5 above).

ARTICLE IX

applicable law; 


  

	 	(d)	 by net exercise; or

the case may be, and used for the corporate purposes of the Company as the Board shall determine. 
 9.2 Dividend Equivalents. Grants
of Stock Based Awards may include dividend equivalent payments or dividend credit rights. The payment of dividend equivalents or dividend credits attributable to an unvested Benefit is not permitted during the period in which the Benefit is

rights shall not be granted dividend equivalent or dividend credits for any period prior to the exercise of such Option or stock appreciation right. 

9.3 Deferral. Unless otherwise specified by the Board, a Participant may elect, with respect to any Plan Year, to receive a grant of
Performance Units in lieu of another Stock Based Award by making and filing with the Board a written irrevocable election prior to the beginning of such Plan Year (or, in the case of a person who becomes a Participant after the beginning of a Plan
Year, within 30 calendar days after becoming a Participant). Unless otherwise specified by the Board, shares subject to a Participant’s deferral election under this Section 9.3 shall count against Shares granted pursuant to the Phantom

such Performance Units as of the date of allocation shall be communicated by the Board in writing to the participant within thirty (30) days after the date of allocation. 

12.4 Terms and Conditions. The grant of Performance Units shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable

the Company, with respect to each Performance Unit, either (i) cash equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share at that time, or (ii) one Share; provided that unless otherwise approved by the Board, a Performance Unit representing a partial

Unfunded Plan. This Plan shall be unfunded and the Company shall not be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Benefits under this Plan. Neither the Company, its Affiliates, nor the Board shall be deemed to be
a trustee of any amounts to be paid under this Plan nor shall anything contained in this Plan or any action taken pursuant to its provisions create or be construed to create a fiduciary relationship between the Company and/or its Affiliates, and a
Participant or successor. To the extent any person acquires a right to receive a Benefit under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

14.10 Severability. In the event any provision of this Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or
invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of this Plan, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.
