	EFFECT OF TERMINATION ON VESTING.  


		
	a.
	Termination in a Non-European Union Payroll Country


If you are on a non-European Union country’s payroll at Termination of employment, your Restricted Stock Unit Award is affected as follows: 
		
	i.
	If your employment Terminates prior to [DATE] of the year following the Grant Date, then all Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited as of your date of Termination.


		
	ii.
	If your employment Terminates on or after [DATE] of the year following the Grant Date; and if, upon Termination, you are at least age 65, have at least 90 points (sum of age and service at Termination), or have retired due to Mandatory Retirement, then your Restricted Stock Unit Award will vest on January 31 following the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Grant Date. 


		
	iii.
	If your employment Terminates on or after [DATE] of the year following the Grant Date; and if, upon Termination, you are at least age 60 or have at least 75 points (sum of age and service at Termination), then a portion of the Restricted Stock Unit Award will vest on [DATE] following the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Grant Date. The number of Restricted Stock Units that shall vest is determined by multiplying the number of Restricted Stock Units granted by the number of completed months from the Grant Date to your Termination date, up to a maximum of 60 months, divided by 60 months.  The portion of your Restricted Stock Unit Award that does not vest in accordance with this formula will be forfeited as of your date of Termination.

Any units withheld for taxes are themselves treated as taxable income in the U.S. and some non-U.S. jurisdictions, and will be valued based on the Closing Price of Common Stock as listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on the applicable tax processing date. If the NYSE is closed on the tax processing date, the price will be based on the Closing Price of Common Stock on the last day the NYSE is open prior to the tax processing date.
