The Grantee agrees that the Grantee will be subject to any compensation, clawback and recoupment policies that may be applicable to the Grantee as an employee of the Employer, as in effect from time to time and as approved by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof, whether or not approved before or after the Date of Grant.
