of the Plan. Tupperware Brands Corporation, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”), hereby establishes an incentive compensation plan to be known as the “Tupperware Brands Corporation 1996 Incentive
Plan” (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”), as set forth in this document. The Plan permits the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, and Performance Awards. The
Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date, and shall remain in effect as provided in Section 1.3 herein.

The purpose of the Plan is to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the personal interests of Participants to those of the Company’s stockholders, and by providing Participants with an incentive for outstanding

largely is dependent. 
 1.3 Duration of the Plan. The Plan shall commence on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect, subject to the right of
the Board of Directors to terminate, amend or modify the Plan at any time pursuant to Article 14 herein, until all Shares subject to it shall have been purchased or acquired according to the Plan’s provisions. However, in no event may an Award
be granted under the Plan on or after May 1, 2006.

 Article 3. Administration 
 3.1 The Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation and Directors Committee or such other committee of the Board as the Board may from time to time designate (the “Committee”), which shall be composed of
not less than two Disinterested Persons each of whom shall be an “outside director” for purposes of Section 162(m)(4) of the Code, and shall be appointed by and serve at the pleasure of the Board. 
 3.2 Authority of the Committee. The Committee shall have plenary authority to grant Awards pursuant to the terms of the Plan to officers and employees of the
Company and its subsidiaries and Affiliates. 
 Among other things, the Committee shall have the authority, subject to the terms of the Plan:

 (a) To select the officers and employees to whom Awards may from time to time be granted; 
 (b) To determine whether and to what extent Incentive Stock Options, NonQualified Stock Options, SARs, Restricted Stock and Performance Awards or any
combination thereof are to be granted hereunder; 
 (c) To determine the number of Shares to be covered by each Award granted hereunder;

 (d) To determine the terms and conditions of any Award granted hereunder (including, but not limited to, the option price (subject to
Section 6.4 (a)), any vesting condition, restriction or limitation (which may be related to the performance of the Participant, the Company or any subsidiary or Affiliate) and any vesting acceleration or forfeiture waiver regarding any Award
and the Shares relating thereto, based on such factors as the Committee shall determine; 
 (e) To modify, amend or adjust the terms and
conditions of any Award, at any time or from time to time, including but not limited to Performance Goals, unless at the time of establishment of goals the Committee shall have precluded its authority to make such adjustments; and 
 (f) To determine to what extent and under what circumstances Shares and other amounts payable with respect to an Award shall be deferred. 
 The Committee shall have the authority to adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it shall from time to time
deem advisable, to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Award issued under the Plan (and any agreement relating thereto) and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. 
 3.3 Action of the Committee. The Committee may act only by a majority of its members then in office, except that the members thereof may (i) delegate to an
officer of the Company the authority to make decisions pursuant to Section 6.4, provided that no such delegation may be made that would cause Awards or other transactions under the Plan to cease either to be exempt from Section 16(b) of
the Exchange Act or to qualify as “qualified performance-based compensation” as such term is defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code, and (ii) authorize any one or more of their number or any
officer of the Company to execute and deliver documents on behalf of the Committee. 
 3.4 Decisions Binding. Any determination made by the Committee
or pursuant to delegated authority pursuant to the provisions of the Plan with respect to any Award shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee or such delegate at the time of the grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any
express term of the Plan, at any time thereafter. All decisions made by the Committee or any appropriately delegated officer pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final and binding on all persons, including the Company and Plan
Participants. 
 Article 4. Shares Subject to the Plan 
 4.1 Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 herein, the total number of Shares available for grant under the Plan shall be six million one hundred thousand (6,100,000); provided, however, that if
during the term of the Plan the Company 

  

 -5- 








 
repurchases Shares, additional Options may be granted equal to the number of Shares so repurchased, except that no more than one million five hundred
thousand (1,500,000) additional Shares shall be authorized for Options under this proviso; and provided further that the total number of available Shares that may be used for Restricted Stock Awards under the Plan shall be limited to three
hundred thousand (300,000). No Participant may be granted Awards covering in excess of 10% of the Shares available for issuance over the life of the Plan. Shares subject to an Award under the Plan may be authorized and unissued shares or may be
treasury shares. 
 The following rules will apply for purposes of the determination of the number of Shares available for grant under the Plan: 

(a) While an Award is outstanding, it shall be counted against the authorized pool of Shares, regardless of its vested status. 
 (b) The grant of an Option or Restricted Stock shall reduce the Shares available for grant under the Plan by the number of Shares subject to such Award.

 (c) The grant of a Tandem SAR shall not reduce the number of Shares available for grant by the number of Shares subject to the related
Option (i.e., there is no double counting of Options and their related Tandem SARs). 
 (d) The grant of a Freestanding SAR shall reduce the
number of Shares available for grant by the number of Freestanding SARs granted. 
 (e) The Committee shall reduce the appropriate number of
Shares from the authorized pool where a Performance Award is payable in Shares. 
 4.2 Lapsed Awards. If any Award granted under this Plan is
cancelled, forfeited, terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason (with the exception of the termination of a Tandem SAR upon exercise of the related Option or the termination of a related Option upon exercise of the corresponding Tandem SAR), any
Shares subject to such Award again shall be available for the grant of an Award under the Plan. However, in the event that prior to the Award’s cancellation, forfeiture, termination, expiration, or lapse, the holder of the Award at any time
received one or more “benefits of ownership” pursuant to such Award (as defined by the Commission, pursuant to any rule or interpretation promulgated under Section 16 or any successor rule of the Exchange Act), the Shares subject to
such Award shall not be made available for regrant under the Plan to Insiders, but shall be available for regrants under the Plan to Participants who are not Insiders. 
 4.3 Adjustments in Authorized Shares and Prices. In the event of any change in corporate capitalization, such as a stock split or a corporate transaction, such as any merger, consolidation, separation,
including a spin-off, or other distribution of stock or property of the Company, any reorganization (whether or not such reorganization comes within the definition of such term in Section 368 of the Code) or any partial or complete liquidation
of the Company, the Committee or Board may make such substitution or adjustments in the aggregate number and class of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, in the number, kind and option price of shares subject to outstanding Stock Options or
SARs, in the number and kind of shares subject to other outstanding Awards granted under the Plan and/or such other equitable substitution or adjustments as it may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the
number of shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number; and provided further, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a change in capitalization that is the result of an equity restructuring which is not the
consequence of a corporate transaction with a third-party, such substitutions or adjustments shall be required to be made. Such adjusted option price shall also be used to determine the amount payable by the Company upon the exercise of any Tandem
SAR. 
  

 -6- 








 Article 5. Eligibility and Participation 
 5.1 Eligibility. Persons eligible to be granted Awards under this Plan include all Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as determined by the Committee, including Employees who are members of the
Board, but excluding Directors who are not Employees. 
 5.2 Actual Participation. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, from time
to time, select from all eligible Employees, those to whom Awards shall be granted and shall determine the nature and amount of each Award. 
 Article 6.
Stock Options 
 6.1 Grant of Options. Stock Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan and may be of two
types: Incentive Stock Options and Nonqualified Stock Options. Any Stock Option granted under the Plan shall be in such form as the Committee may from time to time approve. The Committee shall have the authority to grant any optionee Incentive Stock
Options, Nonqualified Stock Options or both types of Stock Options (in each case with or without Stock Appreciation Rights); provided, however, that grants hereunder are subject to the aggregate limit on grants to individual Participants set forth
in Article 4. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees of the Company and any “subsidiary corporation” (as such term is defined in Section 424(f) of the Code). To the extent that any Stock Option is not designated as
an Incentive Stock Option or even if so designated does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall constitute a Nonqualified Stock Option. 
 6.2
Award Agreement. Stock Options shall be evidenced by option agreements, the terms and provisions of which may differ. An option agreement shall indicate on its face whether it is intended to be an agreement for an Incentive Stock Option or a
Nonqualified Stock Option. The grant of a Stock Option shall occur on the date the Committee by resolution selects an individual to be a Participant in any grant of a Stock Option, determines the number of Shares to be subject to such Stock Option
to be granted to such individual and specifies the terms and provisions of the Stock Option, or such later date as the Committee designates. The Company shall notify a Participant of any grant of a Stock Option, and a written option agreement or
agreements shall be duly executed and delivered by the Company to the Participant. Such agreement or agreements shall become effective upon execution by the Company and the Participant. 
 6.3 Incentive Stock Options. Anything in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, no term of the Plan relating to Incentive Stock Options shall be interpreted, amended or altered nor shall any discretion or
authority granted under the Plan be exercised so as to disqualify the Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the optionee affected, to disqualify any Incentive Stock Option under such Section 422. 
 6.4 Terms and Conditions. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and
conditions as the Committee shall deem desirable: 
 (a) Option Price. The option price per Share purchasable under a Stock Option shall be determined
by the Committee and set forth in the option agreement, and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to the Stock Option on the date of grant. Options may not be repriced without shareholder approval. 
 (b) Option Term. The term of each Stock Option shall be fixed by the Committee, but no Incentive Stock Option shall be exercisable more than 10 years after the
date the Stock Option is granted. 
 (c) Exercisability. Except as otherwise provided herein, Stock Options shall be exercisable at such time or times
and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee. If the Committee provides that any Stock Option is exercisable only in installments, the Committee may at any time waive such installment exercise provisions, in whole
or in part, based on such factors as the Committee may determine. In addition, the Committee may at any time accelerate the exercisability of any Stock Option. 
 (d) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this Article 6, Stock Options may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time during the option term by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of
Shares subject to the Stock Option to be purchased. 
 Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price by certified or bank check
or such other instrument as the Company may accept. If approved by the Committee, payment, in full or in part, may also be made in the form of delivery of 

  

 -7- 








 
unrestricted Shares already owned by the optionee of the same class as the Shares subject to the Stock Option (based on the Fair Market Value of the shares
on the date the Stock Option is exercised), or by certifying ownership of such Shares by the Participant to the satisfaction of the Company for later delivery to the Company as specified by the Committee; provided, however, that, in the case of an
Incentive Stock Option the right to make a payment in the form of already owned Shares of the same class as the Shares subject to the Stock Option may be authorized only at the time the Stock Option is granted. 
 In the discretion of the Committee, payment for any Shares subject to a Stock Option may also be made pursuant to a “cashless exercise” by delivering a
properly executed exercise notice to the Company, together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the purchase price, and, if requested, the amount of any
federal, state, local or foreign withholding taxes. To facilitate the foregoing, the Company may enter into agreements for coordinated procedures with one or more brokerage firms. 
 No shares shall be issued until full payment therefor has been made. An optionee shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding the class or series of Shares that is subject to such Stock Option
(including, if applicable, the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends), when the optionee has given written notice of exercise and has paid in full for such Shares. 
 (e) Restrictions on Share Transferability. The Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Option under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without
limitation, restrictions under applicable Federal securities laws, under the requirements of any stock exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such
Shares. 
 (f) Nontransferability of Stock Options. No Stock Option shall be transferable by the optionee other than (i) by will or by
application of the laws of descent and distribution; or (ii) in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, pursuant to (a) a domestic relations order issued by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction or (b) a gift to members of such
optionee’s immediate family, whether directly or indirectly or by means of a trust or partnership or otherwise, if expressly permitted under the applicable option agreement. All Stock Options shall be exercisable, subject to the terms of this
Plan, during the optionee’s lifetime, only by the optionee or by the guardian or legal representative of the optionee or, in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, its alternative payee pursuant to such domestic relations order, it being
understood that the term “holder” and “optionee” include the guardian and legal representative of the optionee named in the option agreement and any person to whom an option is transferred by will or the laws of descent and
distribution or, in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, pursuant to a domestic relations order or a gift permitted under the applicable option agreement. 
 (g) Death. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if an optionee’s employment terminates by reason of death, any Stock Option held by such optionee shall become immediately and fully exercisable and (unless another period
is specified by the Committee in the option agreement) may thereafter be exercised by the estate of the optionee for a period of three years from the date of such death; provided, however, that if the optionee is at least sixty years of age at the
time of death and has fifteen years service with the Company, such Stock Option may thereafter be exercised by the estate of the optionee for a period of six years from the date of such death. In no event, however, may a Stock Option be exercisable
beyond the stated expiration date of such Stock Option. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if an optionee dies after termination of the optionee’s employment, any Stock Option
held by such optionee may thereafter be exercised, to the extent such Stock Option was exercisable as of the date of such death, for a period that expires on the earliest of (i) the first anniversary of the date of such death, (ii) the
last date on which the optionee would have been entitled to exercise such Stock Option had the optionee not died or (iii) the date on which the stated term of such Stock Option expires; provided, however, that if such optionee had retired from
the Company prior to the date of death, the estate of the optionee shall continue to have the benefit of the vesting and exercisability benefits specified by Section 6.4(i). 
 (h) Termination by Reason of Disability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if an optionee’s employment terminates by reason of Disability, any Stock Option held by such optionee, if not fully
vested and exercisable as of the date of such termination, shall continue to vest according to such Stock Option’s stated vesting schedule and may thereafter be exercised by the optionee, to the extent it was exercisable at the time of
termination or thereafter becomes exercisable, or on such accelerated basis as the Committee 

  

 -8- 








 
may determine, for a period of three years (or such shorter period as the Committee may specify in the option agreement) from the date of such termination of
employment or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is the shorter; provided, however, that if the optionee dies within such period, any unexercised Stock Option held by such optionee shall continue to be
exercisable to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death for the remainder of such period, or for a period of 12 months from the date of such death, or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period
is the shortest. In the event of termination of employment by reason of Disability, if an Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such Stock Option
will thereafter be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option. 
 (i) Termination by Reason of Retirement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee,
if an optionee’s employment terminates by reason of retirement, the following vesting and exercisability terms will apply. For purposes of this Plan, an optionee shall be deemed to have terminated employment by reason of retirement if such
optionee is age 55 years or older with 10 or more years of service with the Company, has given due notice (as determined by the Committee), and has entered into an agreement, the form and content of which shall be specified by the Committee, not to
compete with the Company and its Affiliates for a period of one year following such retirement.

 With respect to any grants of a Stock Option occurring after August 18, 1999, and notwithstanding any
inconsistent provision contained in the first paragraph of this Section 6.4(i), the following vesting and exercisability terms shall apply. Any optionee who has attained the age of 60 years or older with 15 or more years of service with the
company, and who meets the other conditions specified by the second sentence of the first paragraph of the Section 6.4(i), shall have 6 years of continued vesting and exercisability following retirement. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the optionee dies within such period of continued exercisability, any unexercised Stock Option held by such optionee shall continue to
be exercisable to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death for the remainder of such period, or for a period of 12 months from the date of such death, or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever
period is the shortest. In the event of termination of employment by reason of retirement, if an Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such Stock
Option will thereafter be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option. 
 (j) Other Termination. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee: (A) if
an optionee incurs a voluntary termination of Employment, any Stock Option held by such optionee, to the extent then exercisable, or on such accelerated basis as the Committee may determine, may be exercised for the lesser of thirty days from the
date of such termination of Employment or the balance of such Stock Option’s term; and (B) if an optionee incurs a termination of Employment because such optionee’s Employment is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate, other than
by reason of retirement or Disability or for Cause, any Stock Option held by such optionee, to the extent then exercisable, or becomes exercisable during the one-year period following termination of employment by the Company or an Affiliate, or on
such accelerated basis as the Committee may determine, may be exercised for the lesser of one year from the date of such termination of Employment or the balance of such Stock Option’s term; provided, however, that if the optionee dies within
such thirty-day or one-year period, as the case may be, any unexercised Stock Option held by such optionee shall continue to be exercisable to the extent to which it was exercisable at the time of death for the remainder of such period, or for a
period of 12 months from the date of such death, or until the expiration of the stated term of such Stock Option, whichever period is the shortest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an optionee incurs a Termination of Employment at or after a Change
of Control, other than by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, any Stock Option held by such optionee shall be exercisable for the lesser of (1) six months and one day from the date of such termination of Employment, and (2) the
balance of such Stock Option’s term. In the event of termination of Employment, if an Incentive Stock Option is exercised after the expiration of the exercise periods that apply for purposes of Section 422 of the Code, such Stock Option
will thereafter be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option.

 (k) Termination for Cause. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, if an optionee incurs a Termination of
Employment for Cause, all Stock Options held by such optionee shall thereupon terminate. 
 Article 7. Stock Appreciation Rights 
 7.1 Grant of SARs. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a SAR may be granted to an Employee at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by
the Committee. The Committee may grant Freestanding SARs, Tandem SARs, or any combination of these forms of SAR. In the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, Tandem SARs may be granted either at or after the time of grant of such Stock Option. In the
case of an Incentive Stock Option, Tandem SARs may be granted only at the time of grant of such Stock Option. 
 The Committee shall have complete discretion
in determining the number of SARs granted to each Participant (subject to Article 4 herein) and, consistent with the provisions of the Plan, in determining the terms and conditions pertaining to such SARs. However, the grant price of a Freestanding
SAR shall be at least equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the SAR. The grant price of Tandem SARs shall equal the Option Price of the related Option. In no event shall any SAR granted hereunder become exercisable within
the first six (6) months of its grant. SARs may not be repriced without stockholder approval. 
 7.2 Exercise of Tandem SARs. Tandem SARs may be
exercised for all or part of the Shares subject to the related Option upon the surrender of the right to exercise the equivalent portion of the related Option. A Tandem SAR shall terminate and no longer be exercisable upon the termination or
exercise of the related Stock Option. A Tandem SAR may be exercised only with respect to the Shares for which its related Option is then exercisable. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, with respect to a Tandem SAR granted in connection with an ISO; (i) the Tandem SAR will expire no later than the expiration of the underlying ISO; (ii) the value of
the payout with respect to the Tandem SAR may be for no more than one hundred percent (100%) of the difference between the Option Price of the underlying ISO and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the underlying ISO at the time the
Tandem SAR is exercised; and (iii) the Tandem SAR may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the ISO exceeds the Option Price of the ISO. 
 7.3 Exercise of Freestanding SARs. Subject to the other provisions of this Article 7, Freestanding SARs may be exercised upon whatever terms and conditions the Committee, at its sole discretion, imposes upon
them. 
 7.4 SAR Agreement. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the grant price, the term of the SAR, and such
other provisions as the Committee shall determine. 
 7.5 Term of SARs. The term of a SAR granted under the Plan shall be determined by the Committee,
at its sole discretion; provided, however, that such term shall not exceed ten (10) years. 
 7.6 Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of a SAR,
a Participant shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying: 
 (a) The excess of the Fair
Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the grant price of the SAR; by 
 (b) The number of Shares with respect to which the SAR
is exercised. 
 At the discretion of the Committee, the payment upon SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination
thereof. 
 7.7 Rule 16b-3 Requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee may impose such conditions on exercise of a
SAR (including, without limitation, the right of the Committee to limit the time of exercise to specified periods) as may be required to satisfy the requirements of any rule or interpretation promulgated under Section 16 (or any successor rule)
of the Act. 
  

 -10- 








 7.8 Nontransferability of SARs. No SAR granted under the Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or
otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by application of the laws of descent and distribution. Further, all SARs granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the discretion of the Committee, an Award Agreement may permit the transferability of a SAR by a Participant solely to members of the Participant’s immediate family or trusts for the benefit of such persons.

 Article 8. Restricted Stock 
 8.1 Administration.
Shares of Restricted Stock may be awarded either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall determine the officers and employees to whom and the time or times at which grants of Restricted Stock will be
awarded, the number of shares to be awarded to any Participant (subject to the aggregate limit on grants to individual Participants set forth in Article 4), the conditions for vesting, the time or times within which such Awards may be subject to
forfeiture and any other terms and conditions of the Awards, in addition to those contained in Section 8.3. 
 The Committee may, prior to grant,
condition the vesting of Restricted Stock upon continued service of the Participant. The provisions of Restricted Stock Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. 
 8.2 Awards and Certificates. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced in such manner as the Committee may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration or issuance of one or more stock certificates.
Any certificate issued in respect of shares of Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of such Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award, substantially in
the following form: 
 “The sale or other transfer of the Shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether voluntary,
involuntary, or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer as set forth in the Tupperware Corporation 1996 Incentive Plan, and in a Restricted Stock Agreement. A copy of the Plan and such Restricted Stock Agreement may be
obtained from Tupperware Corporation.” 
 The Committee may require that the certificates evidencing such Shares be held in custody by the Company until
the restrictions thereon shall have lapsed and that, as a condition of any Award of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall have delivered a stock power, endorsed in blank, relating to the Common Stock covered by such Award. 
 8.3 Terms and Conditions. Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the Restricted Stock Agreement referred to in Section 8.3(f), during the Restricted Period, the
Participant shall not be permitted to sell, assign, transfer, pledge or otherwise encumber shares of Restricted Stock, except that, if expressly provided in the Restricted Stock Agreement, a Participant may, during the Restriction Period, transfer
shares of Restricted Stock to members of the Participant’s immediate family or trusts or partnerships for the benefit of such persons. Within these limits, the Committee may provide for the lapse of restrictions based upon period of service in
installments or otherwise and may accelerate or waive, in whole or in part, restrictions based upon period of service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Restricted Stock Award granted hereunder shall have a Restriction Period of not less than three
years, except that an aggregate amount of Restricted Stock Awards not exceeding one-third of the Shares available for use as Restricted Stock Awards pursuant to Section 4.1 of the Plan may be issued without a minimum Restriction Period.

 (b) Except as provided in this paragraph (b) and paragraph (a), above, and the Restricted Stock Agreement, the Participant shall have,
with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company holding the class or series of Shares that is the subject of the Restricted Stock, including, if applicable, the right to vote the shares and the right
to receive any cash dividends. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement, dividends payable in Shares shall be paid in the form of Restricted Stock of the same class as the Shares with which such
dividend was paid, held subject to the vesting of the underlying Restricted Stock. In the event that any dividend 

  

 -11- 








 
constitutes a “derivative security” or an “equity security” pursuant to Rule 16(a) under the Act, such dividend shall be subject to a
vesting period equal to the longer of: (i) the remaining vesting period of the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the dividend is paid; or (ii) six months. The Committee shall establish procedures for the application of this
provision. 
 (c) Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement and paragraphs (a) and (d) of
this Section 8.3 and Section 13.1(b), upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason during the Restriction Period, all Shares still subject to restriction shall be forfeited by the Participant. 
 (d) Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 13.1(b), in the event that a Participant retires or such Participant’s employment is
involuntarily terminated (other than for Cause), the Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining restrictions with respect to any or all of such Participant’s shares of Restricted Stock. 

(e) If and when any applicable Restriction Period expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, unlegended certificates for such shares
shall be delivered to the Participant upon surrender of the legended certificates. 
 (f) Each Award shall be confirmed by, and be subject to,
the terms of a Restricted Stock Agreement. 
 Article 9. Performance Awards 
 9.1 Grant of Performance Awards. Subject to the terms of the Plan, Performance Awards may be granted to eligible Employees at any time and from time to time, as shall be determined by the Committee, and may be
granted either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number, amount and timing of Awards granted to each Participant. Such Performance Awards may take the form
determined by the Committee, including without limitation, cash, Shares, Performance Units and Performance Shares, or any combination thereof. Performance Awards may be awarded as short-term or long-term incentives. 
 9.2 Performance Goals. (a) The Committee shall set Performance Goals at its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine
the number and/or value of Performance Awards that will be paid out to the Participants, and may attach to such Performance Awards one or more restrictions, including, without limitation, a requirement that Participants pay a stipulated purchase
price for each Performance Share, or restrictions which are necessary or desirable as a result of applicable laws or regulations. Each Performance Award may be confirmed by, and be subject to, a Performance Award Agreement. 
 (b) The Committee shall have the authority at any time to make adjustments to Performance Goals for any outstanding Performance Awards which the Committee
deems necessary or desirable unless at the time of establishment of goals the Committee shall have precluded its authority to make such adjustments. 
 (c) Performance Periods shall, in all cases, exceed six (6) months in length. 
 9.3 Value of Performance Units/Shares. (a) Each
Performance Unit shall have an initial value that is established by the Committee at the time of grant. 
 (b) Each Performance Share shall
have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. 
 9.4 Earning of Performance Awards. After the applicable
Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Awards shall be entitled to receive the payout earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding Performance Goals
have been achieved, except as adjusted pursuant to Section 9.2(b) or as deferred pursuant to Article 11. 
  

 -12- 








 9.5 Timing of Payment of Performance Awards. Payment of earned Performance Awards shall be made in accordance with
terms and conditions prescribed or authorized by the Committee. The Committee may permit the Participants to elect to defer or the Committee may require the deferral of, the receipt of Performance Awards upon such terms as the Committee deems
appropriate. 
 9.6 Nontransferability. Performance Awards may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated,
other than by will or by application of the laws of descent and distribution. Further, a Participant’s rights under the Plan shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s
Beneficiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the discretion of the Committee, an Award Agreement may permit the transferability of a Performance Award by a Participant solely to members of the Participant’s immediate family or trusts or
partnerships for the benefit of such persons. 
 9.7 Termination. Performance Awards shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

 (a) Except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Performance Award Agreement, if any, and Sections 9.7(b) and 13.1(c), upon a
Participant’s Termination of Employment for any reason during the Performance Period or before any applicable Performance Goals are satisfied, the rights to the shares still covered by the Performance Award shall be forfeited by the
Participant. 
 (b) Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 13.1(c), in the event that a Participant’s employment is
terminated (other than for Cause), or in the event a Participant retires, the Committee shall have the discretion to waive, in whole or in part, any or all remaining payment limitations (other than, in the case of Performance Awards with respect to
which a Participant is a Covered Employee, satisfaction of any applicable Performance Goals unless the Participant’s employment is terminated by reason of death or disability) with respect to any or all of such Participant’s Performance
Awards. 
 Article 10. Beneficiary 
 10.1 Designation.
Each Participant under the Plan may, from time to time, name any Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (who may be named contingently or successively). Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form
prescribed by the Company, and shall be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. Any such designation shall control over any inconsistent testamentary or inter vivos transfer by
a Participant, and any benefit of a Participant under the Plan shall pass automatically to a Participant’s Beneficiary pursuant to a proper designation pursuant to this Section 10.1 without administration under any statute or rule of law
governing the transfer of property by will, trust, gift or intestacy. 
 10.2 Absence of Designation. In the absence of any such designation
contemplated by Section 10.1, benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid pursuant to the Participant’s will or pursuant to the laws of descent and distribution. 
 Article 11. Deferrals 
 The Committee may permit a Participant to
elect, or the Committee may require at its sole discretion subject to the proviso set forth below, any one or more of the following: (i) the deferral of the Participant’s receipt of cash, (ii) a delay in the exercise of an Option or
SAR, (iii) a delay in the lapse or waiver of restrictions with respect to Restricted Stock, or (iv) a delay of the satisfaction of any requirements or goals with respect to Performance Awards; provided, however, the Committee’s
authority to take such actions hereunder shall exist only to the extent necessary to reduce or eliminate a limitation on the deductibility of compensation paid to the Participant pursuant to (and so long as such action in and of itself does not
constitute the exercise of impermissible discretion under) Section 162(m) of the Code, or any successor provision thereunder. If any such deferral is required or permitted, the Committee shall establish rules and procedures for such deferrals,
including provisions relating to periods of deferral, the terms of payment following the expiration of the deferral periods, and the rate of earnings, if any, to be credited to any amounts deferred thereunder. 
  

 -13- 








 Article 12. Rights of Employees 
 12.1 Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company to terminate any Participant’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to
continue in the employ of the Company. For purposes of the Plan, transfer of employment of a Participant between the Company and any one of its Subsidiaries (or between Subsidiaries) shall not be deemed a termination of employment. 
 12.2 Participation. No Employee shall have the right to be selected to receive an Award under this Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive a
future Award. 
 Article 13. Change of Control 
 13.1
Impact of Event. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event of a Change of Control: 
 (a) Any Stock
Options or SARs outstanding as of the date such Change of Control is determined to have occurred, and which are not then exercisable and vested, shall become fully exercisable and vested to the full extent of the original grant; provided, however,
that in the case of the holder of Stock Options or SARs who is actually subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, such Stock Options or SARs shall have been outstanding for at least six months at the date such Change of Control is
determined to have occurred. 
 (b) The restrictions and deferral limitations applicable to any Restricted Stock shall lapse, and such
Restricted Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant. 
 (c) All Performance Awards shall be considered to be earned and payable in full, and any deferral or other restriction shall lapse and such Performance Units shall be settled in cash as promptly as is practicable. 
 Article 14. Amendment, Modification, and Termination 
 14.1
Amendment, Modification, and Termination. At any time and from time to time, the Board may terminate, amend, or modify the Plan. However, no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would disqualify the Plan from the
exemption provided by Rule 16b-3, and no such amendment shall be made without the approval of the Company’s stockholders to the extent such approval is required by law or agreement. 
 14.2 Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the
Participant holding such Award except such an amendment made to cause the Plan or Award to qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3. The Committee shall have the right to replace any previously-granted Award under the Plan with an Award
equal to the value of the replaced Award at the time of replacement, without obtaining the consent of the Participant holding such Award. 
 Subject to the
above provisions, the Board shall have authority to amend the Plan to take into account changes in law and tax and accounting rules as well as other developments, and to grant Awards which qualify for beneficial treatment under such rules without
stockholder approval. 
 Article 15. Withholding 
 15.1
Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, state, and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA
obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising under or as a result of this Plan. 
 15.2 Share Withholding.
With respect to withholding required and/or permitted upon the exercise of Options or SARs, upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock, or upon any other taxable event hereunder, Participants may elect, subject to the approval of 

  

 -14- 








 
the Committee, to satisfy the withholding requirement, in whole or in part, by having the Company withhold Shares (or by surrendering Shares previously owned
which have been held for longer than six months) having a Fair Market Value on the date the tax is to be determined equal to the minimum statutory total tax which could be imposed on the transaction. All elections shall be irrevocable, made in
writing, signed by the Participant, and elections by Insiders shall additionally comply with the requirements established by the Committee. 
 Article 16.
Successors 
 All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to Awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company,
whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, spin-off, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company. 
 Article 17. Legal Construction 
 17.1 Gender and Number. Except
where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine; the plural shall include the singular and the singular shall include the plural. 
 17.2 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be
construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included. 
 17.3 Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the
issuance of Shares under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. With respect to Insiders, transactions under
this Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3 or its successors under the Exchange Act. To the extent any provision of the plan or action by the Committee fails to comply with Section 17.3, it shall be deemed
null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in the Plan, if
required by any rule or interpretation promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, any “derivative security” or “equity security” offered pursuant to the Plan to any Insider may not be sold or transferred for at least
six (6) months after the date of grant of such Award. The terms “equity security” and “derivative security” shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the then-current Rule 16(a) under the Exchange Act. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or agreements made pursuant thereto, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or
certificates for Shares under the Plan prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions: 
 i. Listing or approval for listing upon
notice of issuance, of such shares on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., or such other securities exchange as may at the time be the principal market for the Shares; 
 ii. Any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or regulation, or the maintaining in effect of any such registration or other qualification which the Committee shall, in its
absolute discretion upon the advice of counsel, deem necessary or advisable; and 
 iii. Obtaining any other consent, approval, or permit from
any state or federal governmental agency which the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion after receiving the advice of counsel, determine to be necessary or advisable. 
 17.4 Pooling. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if any right granted pursuant to this Plan would make a Change of Control transaction ineligible for pooling-of-interests accounting under APB
No.16 that but for the nature of such grant would otherwise be eligible for such accounting treatment, the Committee shall have the ability to substitute for the cash payable pursuant to such grant Common Stock with a Fair Market Value equal to the
cash that would otherwise be payable hereunder. 
  

 -15- 








 17.5 Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by Federal law, the Plan, and all agreements hereunder, shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.
