ARTICLE 5 
 CASH
COMPENSATION 
 5.1. BASIC CASH RETAINER. Each Eligible Participant shall be paid a Basic Cash Retainer for service as a
director during each Plan Year, payable in quarterly installments in advance. The amount of the Basic Cash Retainer is set forth on Schedule I, which may be amended from time to time by the Committee. Each person who first becomes an Eligible
Participant on a date other than an Annual Meeting Date shall be paid a pro rata amount of the Basic Cash Retainer for that Plan Year to reflect the actual number of days such Person will serve on the Board in the Plan Year (a “Prorated Basic
Cash Retainer”). The first installment of a Prorated Basic Cash Retainer shall be paid on or about the first day that such Person becomes an Eligible Participant and shall be a pro rata amount of the Basic Cash Retainer for that fiscal quarter
to reflect the actual number of days such Person will serve on the Board in that fiscal quarter, with normal quarterly installments to follow for the remainder of the Plan Year, as described above. 

5.2. SUPPLEMENTAL CASH RETAINER. Members of committees of the Board may be paid a Supplemental Cash Retainer during a Plan Year,
payable in quarterly installments in advance at the same times as installments of the Basic Cash Retainer are paid. The amount of the Supplemental Cash Retainers are set forth on Schedule I, which may be amended from time to time by the
Committee, and may be different for the chair of any committee than for the other members of such committee, as set forth on Schedule I from time to time. A pro rata portion of the Supplemental Cash Retainer (a “Prorated Supplemental
Cash Retainer”) will be paid to any Eligible Participant who is elected or appointed by the Board to a position eligible for a Supplemental Cash Retainer on a date other than an Annual Meeting Date, to reflect the actual number of days such
Person will serve in such capacity during the Plan Year. The first installment of a Prorated Supplemental Cash Retainer shall be paid on or about the first day that such Eligible Participant is elected or appointed to such position and shall be a
pro rata amount of the Supplemental Cash Retainer for that fiscal quarter to reflect the actual number of days such Person will serve in such position in that fiscal quarter, with normal quarterly installments to follow for the remainder of the Plan
Year, as described above. If an Eligible Participant who is a member of a committee is elected or appointed by the Board to chair such committee on a date other than an Annual Meeting Date and such chair position is entitled to a higher Supplemental
Cash Retainer than that of a member of such committee, such Person shall receive a Prorated Supplemental Cash Retainer based upon the difference between such higher Supplemental Cash Retainer and the lower Supplemental Cash Retainer for such partial
period. 
  







 5.3. MEETING FEES. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth on
Schedule I, as amended from time to time by the Committee, Eligible Participants shall not be paid a fee for meetings of the Board or a committee thereof in which he or she participates. For purposes of this provision, in the event the

connection with attendance at meetings of the Board and its committees, or other Company functions at which the Chief Executive Officer requests the director to participate. 

ARTICLE 6 
 EQUITY
COMPENSATION 
 6.1. STOCK AWARDS. Subject to share availability under the LTIP, each Eligible Participant shall be
granted an award of Restricted Stock Units on the day that he or she first becomes an Eligible Participant (“Initial Stock Grant”). Each person who first becomes an Eligible Participant on a date other than an Annual Meeting Date shall
receive a pro rata amount of the Initial Stock Grant to reflect the actual number of months remaining between the date such person first becomes an Eligible Participant and the next anniversary of the Annual Meeting Date. In addition to the Initial
Stock Grant, subject to share availability under the LTIP, each Eligible Participant in service on an Annual Meeting Date will receive an award of Restricted Stock Units on such date (“Annual Stock Grant” and collectively with the Initial
Stock Grant, the “Stock Grants”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Eligible Participant who first becomes an Eligible Participant on an Annual Meeting Date will not receive the Initial Stock Grant (but will receive the Annual Stock
Grant). The Stock Grants shall have the following terms and conditions: 
 (a) Number of Initial Stock Grants. The
number of shares in the Initial Stock Grant to an Eligible Participant shall be determined by multiplying the Proration Factor (as defined below) by the amount determined by (A) dividing the Annual Stock Retainer as in effect for that Plan
Year, by the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date, and (B) rounding to the nearest whole number. The Proration Factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months between the Grant Date and the next anniversary
of the most recent Annual Meeting Date, and the denominator of which is 12. 
 (b) Number of Annual Stock Grants. The
number of shares in the Annual Stock Grant to an Eligible Participant shall be determined by (A) dividing the Annual Stock Retainer as in effect for that Plan Year, by the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date, and (B) rounding
to the nearest whole number. 
 (c) Vesting. The Stock Grants shall vest on the first anniversary of the Grant Date,
subject to the Non-Employee Director’s Continuous Service on each vesting date. 
 (d) Other Plan Conditions. To
the extent not specified herein, the Stock Grants shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the LTIP. 
 6.2.
ADJUSTMENTS. For the avoidance of doubt, the adjustment provisions of the LTIP (along with all of the other provisions of the LTIP) shall apply with respect to all Equity Awards granted pursuant to this Plan. 

 







 6.3. AWARD AGREEMENTS. All Equity Awards granted pursuant to this Plan shall be
evidenced by an Award Certificate, which shall include such provisions, not inconsistent with the Plan or the LTIP, as may be specified by the Committee. 

ARTICLE 7 
 AMENDMENT,
MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION 
 7.1. AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION AND TERMINATION. The Committee may, at any time and from time
to time, amend, modify or terminate the Plan without stockholder approval; provided, however, that if an amendment to the Plan would, in the reasonable opinion of the Committee, require stockholder approval under applicable laws, policies or
regulations or the applicable listing or other requirements of a securities exchange on which the Stock is listed or traded, then such amendment shall be subject to stockholder approval; and provided further, that the Committee may condition any
other amendment or modification on the approval of stockholders of the Company for any reason. Modification of Equity Awards granted under this Plan shall be subject to the provisions of the LTIP. 

ARTICLE 8 
 GENERAL
PROVISIONS 
 8.1. DURATION OF THE PLAN. The Plan shall remain in effect until terminated by the Board or the Committee or
the earlier termination or expiration of the LTIP, including any successor plans.
