SJW CORP.
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN 

AS AMENDED AND RESTATED JULY 29, 2015
ARTICLE ONE
GENERAL PROVISIONS
		
	I.
	PURPOSE OF THE PLAN


This Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to promote the interests of SJW Corp., a California corporation, by providing eligible persons in the Corporation’s service with the opportunity to participate in one or more cash or equity incentive compensation programs designed to encourage them to continue their service relationship with the Corporation. 
The Plan was initially adopted by the Board on March 6, 2002 and approved by the Corporation’s shareholders on April 18, 2002.  The Plan was amended and restated by the Board on January 30, 2008 and approved by the Corporation’s shareholders at the 2008 Annual Meeting.  The Plan was subsequently amended and restated by the Board on January 30, 2013 and approved by the Corporation’s shareholders at the 2013 Annual Meeting.  This July 2015 Amended and Restated Plan was adopted by the Board on July 29, 2015.  All Awards outstanding under the Plan at the time of the  Board’s adoption of the July 2015 Amended and Restated Plan shall continue to be governed by the existing terms and provisions of the applicable agreements evidencing those Awards, and nothing in the July 2015 Amended and Restated Plan shall be deemed to affect or modify the existing terms and conditions of those Awards.  
Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the attached Appendix.
		
	II.
	STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN


A.    The Amended and Restated Plan is hereby divided into a series of separate incentive compensation programs as follows:
-    the Discretionary Grant Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted options to purchase shares of Common Stock or stock appreciation rights tied to the value of such Common Stock,
-    the Stock Issuance Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be issued shares of Common Stock pursuant to restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance shares or other stock-based awards which vest upon the completion of a designated service period or the attainment of pre-established performance milestones, or such shares of Common Stock may be issued as a bonus for services rendered the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary), and the Incentive Bonus Program under which eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be provided with incentive bonus opportunities through performance unit awards and special cash incentive programs tied to the attainment of pre-established performance milestones. 
B.    The provisions of Articles One and Five shall apply to all incentive compensation programs under the Plan and shall govern the interests of all persons under the Plan.







		
	III.
	ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN


A.    The Executive Compensation Committee shall have sole and exclusive authority to administer the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs with respect to Section 16 Insiders.  Administration of the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs with respect to all other persons eligible to participate in those programs may, at the Board’s discretion, be vested in the Executive Compensation Committee or a Secondary Board Committee, or the Board may retain the power to administer those programs with respect to such persons. 
B.    The Executive Compensation Committee may make Awards to any and all non-employee Board members, including members of the Executive Compensation Committee, upon such terms and conditions as the Executive Compensation Committee deems appropriate in its sole discretion or pursuant to one or more formulaic programs which provide for the automatic grant of such Awards in such amounts, at such times and subject to such terms as the Executive Compensation Committee may designate in advance, in each instance subject to the express provisions of the Plan and the limitations of Section V.D of this Article One. The terms and conditions of the Awards may vary among the non-employee Board members on an individual by individual basis or may differ from the terms and conditions in effect for prior Awards made to the non-employee Board members. The Executive Compensation Committee may also implement one or more programs which provide the non-employee Board members with the opportunity to elect on an advance basis to receive specific types of Awards, either on a current or deferred basis, in lieu of retainer or meeting fees otherwise payable to them in cash for their service as non-employee Board members and/or as members of one or more Board committees (or for their service as members of the board of directors of any Parent or Subsidiary or any committee of such board).  All discretionary Awards to non-employee Board members authorized by the Executive Compensation Committee and all formulaic programs implemented by the Executive Compensation Committee for such Board members shall be subject to approval and ratification by a majority of the Board. Outstanding Awards under the special incentive compensation programs previously established for the non-employee Board members under the Plan, namely, the Deferral Election Program and the Deferred Restricted Stock Program (each as amended as of December 6, 2007), shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their existing terms and conditions, and nothing in this July 2015 Amended and Restated Plan shall be deemed to affect or modify the existing terms and conditions of those Awards.  In addition, the non-employee Board members shall continue to have the opportunity to make an annual deferral election with respect to their retainer and meeting fees for each upcoming year of service on the Board or any Board Committee pursuant to the provisions of the Deferral Election Program as amended December 6, 2007 and to earn an investment return on their deferred fees.
C.    Members of the Executive Compensation Committee or any Secondary Board Committee shall serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be removed by the Board at any time.  The Board may also at any time terminate the functions of any Secondary Board Committee and reassume all powers and authority previously delegated to such committee.
D.    Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority (subject to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and regulations as it may deem appropriate for proper administration of the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs and to make such determinations under, and issue such interpretations of, the provisions of those programs and any outstanding Awards thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable.  Decisions of the Plan Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under the Plan shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the Discretionary Grant, Stock Issuance and Incentive Bonus Programs under its jurisdiction or any Award thereunder.

2




E.    Service as a Plan Administrator by the members of the Executive Compensation Committee or the Secondary Board Committee shall constitute service as Board members, and the members of each such committee shall accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and reimbursement as Board members for their service on such committee.  No member of the Executive Compensation Committee or the Secondary Board Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award thereunder.
		
	IV.
	ELIGIBILITY


A.    The persons eligible to participate in the Plan are as follows:
(i)    Employees,
(ii)    non-employee members of the Board or the board of directors of any Parent or Subsidiary, and
(iii)    consultants and other independent advisors who provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).
B.    The Plan Administrator shall have full authority to determine, (i) with respect to Awards made under the Discretionary Grant Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when those Awards are to be made, the number of shares to be covered by each such Award, the time or times when the Award is to become exercisable, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the Award, the maximum term for which such Award is to remain outstanding and the status of a granted option as either an Incentive Option or a Non-Statutory Option; (ii) with respect to Awards under the Stock Issuance Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when the Awards are to be made, the form in which the Awards are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such Award, the vesting and issuance schedules applicable to the shares which are the subject of such Award, the cash consideration (if any) payable for those shares and the form (cash or shares of Common Stock) in which the Award is to be settled; and (iii) with respect to Awards under the Incentive Bonus Program, which eligible persons are to receive such Awards, the time or times when the Awards are to be made, the form in which the Awards are to be made, the performance objectives for each such Award, the amounts payable at designated levels of attained performance, any applicable service vesting requirements, the payout schedule for each such Award that vests and the form (cash or Common Stock) in which the Award is to be settled.
C.    The Plan Administrator shall have the absolute discretion to grant options or stock appreciation rights in accordance with the Discretionary Grant Program, to effect stock issuances and other stock-based awards in accordance with the Stock Issuance Program and to grant incentive bonus awards in accordance with the Incentive Bonus Program.
		
	V.
	STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN


A.    The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Corporation on the open market.  The total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall not exceed one million eight hundred thousand  (1,800,000) shares1.  
1As of January 1, 2013,  327,093 shares of Common Stock were subject to outstanding Awards, 287,534 shares had been issued in settlement of Awards made under the Plan and 1,185,373 shares were available for future Awards. 

3




B.    The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued from the authorized share reserve under Section V.A above pursuant to Incentive Options granted under the Plan after December 31, 2012 shall be limited to one million five hundred twelve thousand four hundred sixty-six (1,512,466) shares. 
C.    Each person participating in the Plan shall be subject to the following limitations:
-    For Awards denominated in shares of Common Stock (whether payable in Common Stock, cash or a combination of both), the maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which such Awards may be made in the aggregate to such person in any calendar year shall not exceed six hundred thousand (600,000) shares of Common Stock in the aggregate, and 
-    For Awards denominated in cash (whether payable in cash, Common Stock or a combination of both), the maximum dollar amount for which such Awards may be made in the aggregate to such person shall not exceed one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each full or partial calendar year within the applicable service or performance measurement period (not to exceed five  calendar years). 
D.    The maximum number of shares of Common Stock for which Awards may be made to any one non-employee Board member shall not exceed in the aggregate four thousand (4,000) shares per calendar year, except that such limit shall be increased to ten thousand (10,000) shares for the year in which the non-employee Board member is first appointed or elected to the Board. 
E.    Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding Awards made under the Plan shall be available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent those Awards expire or terminate for any reason prior to the issuance of the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards.  Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently forfeited or repurchased by the Corporation, at a price per share not greater than the original issue price paid per share, pursuant to the Corporation’s repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added back to the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan and shall accordingly be available for subsequent reissuance.  Should the exercise price of an option under the Plan be paid with shares of Common Stock, then the authorized reserve of Common Stock under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which that option is exercised, and not by the net number of shares issued under the exercised stock option.  Upon the exercise of any stock appreciation right under the Plan, the share reserve shall be reduced by the gross number of shares as to which such right is exercised, and not by the net number of shares actually issued by the Corporation upon such exercise.  If shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan are withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred in connection with the exercise, vesting or settlement of an Award, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan shall be reduced on the basis of the gross number of shares issuable under such Award at the time of exercise, vesting or settlement, calculated in each instance prior to any such share withholding. 
F.    Should any change be made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration, or should the value of the outstanding shares of Common Stock be substantially reduced as a result of a spin-off transaction or an extraordinary dividend or distribution, or should there occur any merger, consolidation or other reorganization, then equitable adjustments shall be made by the Plan Administrator to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the Plan, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under the Plan, (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted Common Stock-denominated 

4




Awards under the Plan per calendar year, (iv) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which a non-employee Board member may be granted Common Stock-denominated Awards under the Plan in any one calendar year, (v) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program, (vi) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Stock Issuance Program and the cash consideration (if any) payable per share, (vii) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Incentive Bonus Program denominated in shares of Common Stock and (viii) the number and/or class of securities subject to the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights under the Plan and the repurchase price payable per share. The adjustments shall be made in such manner as the Plan Administrator deems appropriate, and such adjustments shall be final, binding and conclusive. In the event of a Change in Control, however, the adjustments (if any) shall be made solely in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Plan governing Change in Control transactions.
G.    Outstanding Awards granted pursuant to the Plan shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
ARTICLE TWO 
DISCRETIONARY GRANT PROGRAM
		
	I.
	OPTION TERMS


Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.  Each document evidencing an Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan applicable to such options.
A.    Exercise Price.
1.    The exercise price per share shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that such exercise price shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the grant date. 
2.    The exercise price shall become immediately due upon exercise of the option and shall, subject to the provisions of the documents evidencing the option, be payable in one or more of the forms specified below:
(i)    cash or check made payable to the Corporation,
(ii)    shares of Common Stock (whether delivered in the form of actual stock certificates or through attestation of ownership) held for the requisite period (if any) necessary to avoid any resulting charge to the Corporation’s earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the Exercise Date, 
(iii)    shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the option but withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the exercise price, with such withheld shares to be valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date, and

5




(iv)    to the extent the option is exercised for vested shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee shall concurrently provide instructions to: (a) a brokerage firm (reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation for purposes of administering such procedure in compliance with the Corporation’s pre-clearance/pre-notification policies) to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable income and employment taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) the Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly to such brokerage firm on such settlement date in order to complete the sale.
Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the Exercise Date.
B.    Exercise and Term of Options.   Each option shall be exercisable at such time or times, during such period and for such number of shares as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing the option.  However, no option shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the option grant date and no option shall vest over a period that is less than one (1) year from the option grant date; provided, however, the Plan Administrator may provide for accelerated vesting without regard to the minimum vesting period in connection with the Optionee’s death or disability or in the event of a Change in Control.  In addition, subject to adjustments under Section V.A. of Article One, up to 5% of the shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan as of July 29, 2015 may be subject to awards granted under the Discretionary Grant Program without regard to the minimum vesting requirement.
C.    Effect of Termination of Service.
1.    The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any options granted pursuant to the Discretionary Grant Program that are outstanding at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service or death:
(i)    Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable for such period of time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing the option, but no such option shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option term.  
(ii)    Any option held by the Optionee at the time of the Optionee’s death and exercisable in whole or in part at that time may be subsequently exercised by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate or by the person or persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee’s will or the laws of inheritance or by the Optionee’s designated beneficiary or beneficiaries of that option.
(iii)    Should the Optionee’s Service be terminated for Cause or should the Optionee otherwise engage in conduct constituting grounds for a termination for Cause while holding one or more outstanding options granted under this Article Two, then all of those options shall terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.
(iv)    During the applicable post-Service exercise period, the option may not be exercised for more than the number of vested shares for which the option 

6




is at the time exercisable; provided, however, that one or more options under the Discretionary Grant Program may be structured so that those options continue to vest in whole or part during the applicable post-Service exercise period. Upon the expiration of the applicable exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term, the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any shares for which the option has not been exercised. 
2.    The Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion, exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the option remains outstanding, to:
(i)    extend the period of time for which the option is to remain exercisable following the Optionee’s cessation of Service from the limited exercise period otherwise in effect for that option to such greater period of time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate, but in no event beyond the expiration of the option term, 
(ii)    include an automatic extension provision whereby the specified post-Service exercise period in effect for any option granted under this Article Two shall automatically be extended by an additional period of time equal in duration to any interval within the specified post-Service exercise period during which the exercise of that option or the immediate sale of the shares acquired under such option could not be effected in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws, but in no event shall such an extension result in the continuation of such option beyond the expiration date of the term of that option, and/or 
(iii)    permit the option to be exercised, during the applicable post-Service exercise period, not only with respect to the number of vested shares of Common Stock for which such option is exercisable at the time of the Optionee’s cessation of Service but also with respect to one or more additional installments in which the Optionee would have vested had the Optionee continued in Service.
D.    Shareholder Rights.  The holder of an option shall have no shareholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a holder of record of the purchased shares.
E.    Repurchase Rights.  The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common Stock.  Should the Optionee cease Service while such shares are unvested, the Corporation shall have the right to repurchase any or all of those unvested shares at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) the exercise price paid per share or (ii) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock at the time of repurchase.  The terms upon which such repurchase right shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure for exercise and the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such repurchase right.  
F.        Transferability of Options. The transferability of options granted under the Plan shall be governed by the following provisions:
(i)    Incentive Options.  During the lifetime of the Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall not be assignable or transferable other than by will or the laws of inheritance following the Optionee’s death.  

7




(ii)    Non-Statutory Options.  Non-Statutory Options shall be subject to the same limitation on transfer as Incentive Options, except that the Plan Administrator may structure one or more Non-Statutory Options so that the option may be assigned in whole or in part during the Optionee’s lifetime through a gratuitous transfer or domestic relations order to one or more Family Members of the Optionee or to a trust established exclusively for the Optionee and/or such Family Members.  The assigned portion may only be exercised by the person or persons who acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to the assignment.  The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as those in effect for the option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate. 
(iii)    Beneficiary Designations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionee may designate one or more persons as the beneficiary or beneficiaries of his or her outstanding options under this Article Two (whether Incentive Options or Non-Statutory Options), and those options shall, in accordance with such designation, automatically be transferred to such beneficiary or beneficiaries upon the Optionee’s death while holding those options.  Such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall take the transferred options subject to all the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement evidencing each such transferred option, including (without limitation) the limited time period during which the option may be exercised following the Optionee’s death.
		
	II.
	INCENTIVE OPTIONS


The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive Options.  Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the provisions of Articles One, Two and Five shall be applicable to Incentive Options.  Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.
A.    Eligibility.  Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.
B.    Dollar Limitation.  The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) for which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any other option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one calendar year shall not exceed the sum of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000).  
To the extent the Employee holds two (2) or more such options which become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, then for purposes of the foregoing limitations on the exercisability of those options as Incentive Options, such options shall be deemed to become first exercisable in that calendar year on the basis of the chronological order in which they were granted, except to the extent otherwise provided under applicable law or regulation.


C.    10% Shareholder.  If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is granted is a 10% Shareholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five (5) years measured from the option grant date.
		
	III.
	STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS


A.    Authority.  The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority, exercisable in its sole discretion, to grant stock appreciation rights in accordance with this Section III to selected Optionees or other individuals eligible to receive option grants under the Discretionary Grant Program.

8




B.    Types.  Two types of stock appreciation rights shall be authorized for issuance under this Section III: (i) tandem stock appreciation rights (“Tandem Rights”) and (ii) stand-alone stock appreciation rights (“Stand-alone Rights”). 
C.    Tandem Rights.  The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Tandem Rights.
1.    One or more Optionees may be granted a Tandem Right, exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may establish, to elect between the exercise of the underlying option for shares of Common Stock or the surrender of that option in exchange for a distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value (on the option surrender date) of the number of shares in which the Optionee is at the time vested under the surrendered option (or surrendered portion thereof) over (ii) the aggregate exercise price payable for such vested shares.
2.    Any distribution to which the Optionee becomes entitled upon the exercise of a Tandem Right may be made in (i) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the option surrender date, (ii)  cash or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of  Common Stock, as specified in the applicable Award agreement.
D.    Stand-Alone Rights.  The following terms and conditions shall govern the grant and exercise of Stand-alone Rights:
1.    One or more individuals eligible to participate in the Discretionary Grant Program may be granted a Stand-alone Right not tied to any underlying option under this Discretionary Grant Program.  The Stand-alone Right shall relate to a specified number of shares of Common Stock and shall be exercisable upon such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may establish.  In no event, however, may the Stand-alone Right have a maximum term in excess of ten (10) years measured from the grant date.  In addition, the minimum vesting requirements applicable to options granted under the Discretionary Grant Program as set forth in Section I.B of this Article Two shall apply to Stand-alone Rights.
2.    Upon exercise of the Stand-alone Right, the holder shall be entitled to receive a distribution from the Corporation in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the exercise date) of the shares of Common Stock underlying the exercised right over (ii) the aggregate base price in effect for those shares.  
3.    The number of shares of Common Stock underlying each Stand-alone Right and the base price in effect for those shares shall be determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion at the time the Stand-alone Right is granted.  In no event, however, may the base price per share be less than the Fair Market Value per underlying share of Common Stock on the grant date.  
4.    Stand-alone Rights shall be subject to the same transferability restrictions applicable to Non-Statutory Options and may not be transferred during the holder’s lifetime, except for an assignment in the form of a gratuitous transfer or pursuant to domestic relations order to one or more Family Members of the holder or to a trust established for the holder and/or one or more such Family Members.  In addition, one or more beneficiaries may be designated for an outstanding Stand-alone Right in accordance with substantially the same terms and provisions as set forth in Section I.F of this Article Two.
5.    The distribution with respect to an exercised Stand-alone Right may be made in (i) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the exercise date, (ii) cash or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the applicable Award agreement.

9




6.    The holder of a Stand-alone Right shall have no shareholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the Stand-alone Right unless and until such person shall have exercised the Stand-alone Right and become a holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of such Stand-alone Right.
E.    Post-Service Exercise.  The provisions governing the exercise of Tandem and Stand-alone Rights following the cessation of the recipient’s Service shall be substantially the same as those set forth in Section I.C of this Article Two for the options granted under the Discretionary Grant Program, and the Plan Administrator’s discretionary authority under Section I.C.2 of this Article Two shall also extend to any outstanding Tandem or Stand-alone Appreciation Rights.
		
	IV.
	CHANGE IN CONTROL


A.    In the event of an actual Change in Control transaction, each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program shall automatically accelerate and become exercisable, immediately prior to the effective date of that Change in Control, as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to such Award, unless (i) such Award is to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or is otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) such Award is to be replaced with a cash retention program of the successor corporation which preserves the spread existing at the time of the Change in Control on any shares as to which the Award is not otherwise at that time exercisable and provides for the subsequent vesting and payout of that spread in accordance with the same exercise/vesting schedule in effect for that Award or (iii) the acceleration of such Award is subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator.  No such cash retention program shall be established for any Award under the Discretionary Grant Program, whether granted before or after the date the Board adopted the January 2013 amendment and restatement of the Plan, to the extent such program would otherwise be deemed to constitute a deferred compensation arrangement subject to the requirements of Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Award outstanding under the Discretionary Grant Program on the date of such Change in Control shall be subject to cancellation and termination, without cash payment or other consideration due the Award holder, if the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of such Change in Control (or any earlier date specified in the definitive agreement for the Change in Control transaction) is less than the per share exercise or base price in effect for such Award and that Award is not otherwise to be assumed or continued in effect by the successor corporation (or parent thereof).
B.    All outstanding repurchase rights under the Discretionary Grant Program shall automatically terminate, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest in full, immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, except to the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise to continue in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator.
C.    Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control, all outstanding Awards made under the Discretionary Grant Program of this Amended and Restated Plan shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.
D.    Each Award which is assumed in connection with a Change in Control or otherwise continued in effect shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Common Stock subject to that Award would have 

10




been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at that time.  Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Change in Control shall also be made to (i) the exercise or base  price per share in effect under each outstanding Award, provided the aggregate exercise or base price in effect for such securities shall remain the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of securities available for issuance over the remaining term of the Plan (iii) the maximum number and/or class of securities that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options granted under the Plan, (iv) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be granted Common Stock-denominated Awards under the Plan per calendar year, (v) the maximum number and/or class of securities for which a non-employee Board member may be granted Common Stock-denominated Awards under the Plan in any one calendar year, (vi) the number and/or class of securities and the exercise or base price per share in effect under each outstanding Award under the Discretionary Grant Program, (vii) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Stock Issuance Program and the cash consideration (if any) payable per share, (viii) the number and/or class of securities subject to each outstanding Award under the Incentive Bonus Program denominated in shares of Common Stock and (ix) the number and/or class of securities subject to the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights under the Plan and the repurchase price payable per share. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program and with the Plan Administrator’s approval, substitute, for the securities underlying those assumed or continued Awards, one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction, provided such common stock is readily traded on an established U.S. securities exchange or market. 
E.    The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those Awards shall, immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to those Awards and may be exercised as to any or all of those shares as fully vested shares of Common Stock, whether or not those Awards are to be assumed or replaced in the Change in Control transaction or otherwise continued in effect.  In addition, the Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more of the Corporation’s repurchase rights under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those rights shall terminate immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, and the shares subject to those terminated rights shall thereupon vest in full.
F.    The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to structure one or more outstanding Awards under the Discretionary Grant Program so that those Awards shall become exercisable as to all the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to those Awards in the event the Optionee’s Service is subsequently terminated by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of any Change in Control transaction in which those Awards do not otherwise fully accelerate.  In addition, the Plan Administrator may structure one or more of the Corporation’s repurchase rights so that those rights shall immediately terminate with respect to any shares held by the Optionee at the time of such Involuntary Termination, and the shares subject to those terminated repurchase rights shall accordingly vest in full at that time. 
G.    The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection with a Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to the extent the applicable one hundred thousand dollar ($100,000) limitation is not exceeded.  To the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-statutory Option under the Federal tax laws.

	V.
	PROHIBITION ON REPRICING PROGRAMS


Except in connection with the adjustments specifically authorized by Section V.F. of Article One, the Plan Administrator shall not (i) implement any cancellation/regrant program pursuant to which outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan are cancelled and new options or stock appreciation rights are granted in replacement with a lower exercise price per share, (ii) cancel outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan with exercise prices per share in excess of the then current Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock for consideration payable in cash, equity securities of the Corporation or in the form of any other Award under the Plan, except in connection with a Change in Control transaction, or (iii) otherwise directly reduce the exercise price in effect for outstanding options or stock appreciation rights under the Plan, without in each such instance obtaining shareholder approval. 


 
ARTICLE THREE
STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM
		
	I.
	STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS


Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to restricted stock awards that vest in one or more increments over a designated period of Service. Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to performance shares or restricted stock units which entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those Awards upon the attainment of designated performance goals or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those Awards.  Each Award under the Stock Issuance Program shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement which complies with the terms specified below.
A.    Issue Price/Consideration.
1.    Shares may be issued for a cash consideration per share fixed by the Plan Administrator at the time of the Award, but in no event shall such cash consideration be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the Award date.
2.    Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program for any of the following items of consideration which the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate in each individual instance:
(i)    past services rendered to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary); or
(ii)    any other valid consideration under the State in which the Corporation is at the time incorporated.
B.    Vesting Provisions.
1.    Shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be fully and immediately vested upon issuance as a bonus for 

12




Service rendered or may vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s period of continued Service or upon the attainment of specified performance objectives.  The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to any unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and incorporated into the Award Agreement.  Shares of Common Stock may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to performance shares or restricted stock units which entitle the recipients to receive the shares underlying those Awards upon the attainment of designated performance goals and/or the satisfaction of specified Service requirements or upon the expiration of a designated time period following the vesting of those Awards, including (without limitation) a deferred distribution date following the termination of the Participant’s Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following limitations shall apply with respect to the vesting schedules established for the Awards made under the Stock Issuance Program, subject to the acceleration provisions in Paragraphs B.6 and B.7 below and Section II of this Article Three:
(i)    for any such Award which is to vest on the basis of Service, the minimum vesting period shall be three (3) years, with the rate of vesting over that period to be determined by  the Plan Administrator; and
(ii)     for any such Award which is to vest on the basis of performance objectives, the performance period shall have a duration of at least one year.
The foregoing minimum vesting requirements shall not be applicable to any Awards made under the Stock Issuance Program to an individual who is at the time of such Award serving solely in the capacity of a non-employee Board member; provided, however, that any Award made under the Stock Issuance Program to such non-employee Board member must have a minimum vesting period of at least one year or (if earlier) the date of the next annual shareholders meeting following the date of such Award, with no greater than monthly pro-rated vesting over that period.
2.    The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more Awards under the Stock Issuance Program so that the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards shall vest (or vest and become issuable) upon the achievement of pre-established performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals and measured over the performance period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of the Award.
3.    Any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which the Participant may have the right to receive with respect to the Participant’s unvested shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares, spin-off transaction, extraordinary dividend or distribution or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation’s receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting requirements applicable to the Participant’s unvested shares of Common Stock and (ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate.  Equitable adjustments to reflect each such transaction shall also be made by the Plan Administrator to the repurchase price payable per share by the Corporation for any unvested securities subject to its existing repurchase rights under the Plan; provided the aggregate repurchase price shall in each instance remain the same.
4.    The Participant shall have full shareholder rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant under the Stock Issuance Program, whether or not the Participant’s interest in those shares is vested.  Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares and to receive any dividends paid on such shares, subject to any applicable vesting requirements.  The Participant 

13




shall not have any shareholder rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to a performance share award or restricted stock unit award until that award vests and the shares of Common Stock are actually issued thereunder.  However, dividend-equivalent units may be paid or credited, either in cash or in actual or phantom shares of Common Stock, on outstanding performance share or restricted stock unit Awards, subject to such terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may deem appropriate; provided, however, that no such dividend-equivalent units relating to Awards subject to performance-vesting conditions shall vest or otherwise become payable prior to the time the underlying Award (or portion thereof to which such dividend-equivalents units relate) vests upon the attainment of the applicable performance goals and shall accordingly be subject to cancellation and forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying Award.  
5.    Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while holding one or more unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock Issuance Program or should the performance objectives not be attained with respect to one or more such unvested shares of Common Stock, then those shares shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation for cancellation, and the Participant shall have no further shareholder rights with respect to those shares.  To the extent the surrendered shares were previously issued to the Participant for consideration paid in cash or cash equivalent, the Corporation shall repay to the Participant the lower of (i) the cash consideration paid for the surrendered shares or (ii) the Fair Market Value of those shares at the time of cancellation.
6.    The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the surrender and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Common Stock which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those shares.  Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the shares of Common Stock as to which the waiver applies.  Such waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant’s cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives.  However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance objectives may be waived with respect to shares which were intended at the time of issuance to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Three.
7.    Outstanding performance shares or restricted stock units under the Stock Issuance Program shall automatically terminate, and no shares of Common Stock shall actually be issued in satisfaction of those Awards, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for those Awards are not attained or satisfied.  The Plan Administrator, however, shall have the discretionary authority to issue vested shares of Common Stock under one or more outstanding Awards of performance shares or restricted stock units as to which the designated performance goals or Service requirements have not been attained or satisfied.  However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance goals may be waived with respect to Awards which were intended, at the time those Awards were made, to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Three. 
8.    The following additional requirements shall be in effect for any performance shares awarded under this Article Three:
(i)    At the end of the performance period, the Plan Administrator shall determine the actual level of attainment for each performance objective and the extent to which the performance shares awarded for that period are to vest and become payable based on the attained performance levels. 

14




(ii)    The performance shares that so vest shall be paid as soon as practicable following the end of the performance period, unless such payment is to be deferred for the period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time the performance shares are initially awarded or for the period designated by the Participant pursuant to a timely-filed deferral election made in accordance with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A. 
(iii)    Performance shares that vest may be paid in (a) cash, (b) shares of Common Stock or (c) any combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the applicable Award Agreement.     
(iv)    Performance shares may also be structured so that the shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock, but the rate at which each performance share is to so convert shall be based on the attained level of performance for each applicable performance objective.
		
	II.
	CHANGE IN CONTROL


A.    Each Award outstanding under the Stock Issuance Program on the effective date of a Change in Control transaction may be (i) assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise continued in effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which preserves the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the time of the Change in Control and provides for the subsequent vesting and payment of that value in accordance with the same vesting and payment schedules in effect for those shares at the time of such Change in Control. To the extent any such Award is at the time of such Change in Control transaction subject to performance-vesting requirements tied to the attainment of one or more specified performance goals and the Plan Administrator does not at that time provide otherwise, those performance-vesting requirements shall upon the assumption, continuation or replacement of that Award be cancelled, and such Award shall thereupon be converted into a Service-vesting Award, based on an assumed attainment of the applicable performance goals at target level, that will vest in one or more increments over the Service-vesting period in effect for that Award immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control. 
B.    Each Award so assumed or continued in effect shall be adjusted immediately after the consummation of that Change in Control so as to apply to the number and class of securities into which the shares of Common Stock subject to that Award immediately prior to the Change in Control would have been converted in consummation of such Change in Control had those shares actually been outstanding at that time, and appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the consideration (if any) payable per share thereunder, provided the aggregate amount of such consideration shall remain the same. To the extent the actual holders of the Corporation’s outstanding Common Stock receive cash consideration for their Common Stock in consummation of the Change in Control, the successor corporation may, in connection with the assumption or continuation of the outstanding Awards and subject to the Plan Administrator’s approval, substitute one or more shares of its own common stock with a fair market value equivalent to the cash consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control transaction, provided such common stock is readily traded on an established U.S. securities exchange or market.  
C.    If an Award outstanding under the Stock Issuance Program on the effective date of a Change in Control transaction is not assumed or otherwise continued in effect or replaced with a cash retention program of the successor corporation which preserves the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the time of the Change in Control and provides for the subsequent vesting and 

15




payment of that value in accordance with the same vesting and payment schedules in effect for those shares at the time of such Change in Control, then such Award shall vest immediately prior to the effective date of that Change in Control, and the shares of Common Stock subject to that Award shall be issued as fully-vested shares in accordance with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement, unless such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed in the Award Agreement.
D.    The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more unvested Awards under the Stock Issuance Program so that the shares of Common Stock subject to those Awards shall automatically vest in whole or in part immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction or upon the subsequent termination of the Participant’s Service by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of that Change in Control transaction.
E.    The Plan Administrator’s authority under Paragraph D of this Section II shall also extend to any Awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), even though the automatic vesting of those Awards pursuant to Paragraph D of this Section II may result in their loss of performance-based status under Code Section 162(m).
F.    All of the Corporation’s outstanding repurchase rights under the Stock Issuance Program shall terminate automatically, and all the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall vest in full, immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction, except to the extent (i) the Awards to which those repurchase rights are to be assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or are otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction, (ii)  those Awards are to be replaced with a cash retention program of the successor corporation which preserves, for each such Award, the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of Common Stock at the time of the Change in Control and provides for the subsequent vesting and payment of that value in accordance with the same vesting and payment schedules in effect for those shares at the time of such Change in Control or (iii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by other limitations imposed in the applicable Award Agreement.
 
ARTICLE FOUR
INCENTIVE BONUS PROGRAM
		
	I.
	INCENTIVE BONUS TERMS


The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority to implement one or more of the following incentive bonus programs under the Plan:
(i)    cash incentive awards (“Cash Awards”), 
(ii)    performance unit awards (“Performance Unit Awards”), and
(iii)    dividend equivalent rights (“DER Awards”)
A.    Cash Awards.  The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority under the Plan to make Cash Awards which are to vest in one or more installments over the Participant’s period of 

16




continued Service with the Corporation or upon the attainment of specified performance goals. Each such Cash Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.
1.    The elements of the vesting schedule applicable to each Cash Award shall be determined by the Plan Administrator and incorporated into the Award Agreement.  
2.    The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more Cash Awards so that those Awards shall vest upon the achievement of pre-established corporate performance objectives based upon one or more Performance Goals. 
3.    Outstanding Cash Awards shall automatically terminate, and no cash payment or other consideration shall be due the holders of those Awards, if the performance goals or Service requirements established for the Awards are not attained or satisfied. The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the cancellation and termination of one or more unvested Cash Awards which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those Awards.  Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the Cash Award as to which the waiver applies.  Such wavier may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant’s cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives.  However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance goals may be waived with respect to awards which were intended, at the time those awards were made, to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Four.  
4.    Cash Awards which become due and payable following the attainment of the applicable performance goals or satisfaction of the applicable Service requirement (or the waiver of such goals or Service requirement) may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the payment date or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the Award Agreement. 
B.    Performance Unit Awards.  The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to make Performance Unit Awards in accordance with the terms of this Article Four.  Each such Performance Unit Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.
1.    A  Performance Unit shall represent either (i) a unit with a dollar value tied to the level at which pre-established performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals are attained or (ii) a participating interest in a special bonus pool tied to the attainment of pre-established performance objectives based on one or more Performance Goals. The amount of the bonus pool may vary with the level at which the applicable performance objectives are attained, and the value of each Performance Unit which becomes due and payable upon the attained level of performance shall be determined by dividing the amount of the resulting bonus pool (if any) by the total number of Performance Units issued and outstanding at the completion of the applicable performance period. 
2.    Performance Units may also be structured to include a Service requirement which the Participant must satisfy following the completion of the performance period in order to vest in the Performance Units awarded with respect to that performance period. 

17




3.    Performance Units which become due and payable following the attainment of the applicable performance objectives and the satisfaction of any applicable Service requirement may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value on the payment date or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the Award Agreement. 
4.    The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the cancellation and termination of one or more unvested Performance Units which would otherwise occur upon the cessation of the Participant’s Service or the non-attainment of the performance objectives applicable to those Awards.  Any such waiver shall result in the immediate vesting of the Participant’s interest in the Performance Units as to which the waiver applies.  Such waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or after the Participant’s cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment of the applicable performance objectives. However, no vesting requirements tied to the attainment of performance goals may be waived with respect to Performance Unit Awards which were intended, at the time those Awards were made, to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), except in the event of the Participant’s cessation of Service by reason of death or Permanent Disability or as otherwise provided in Section II of this Article Four.  
C.    DER Awards.  The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to make DER Awards in accordance with the terms of this Article Four.  Each such DER Award shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form approved by the Plan Administrator; provided however, that each such document shall comply with the terms specified below.
1.    The DER Awards may be made as stand-alone awards or in tandem with other Awards made under the Plan.  The term of each such DER Award shall be established by the Plan Administrator at the time of grant, but no DER Award shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years. 
2.    Each DER shall represent the right to receive the economic equivalent of each dividend or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than shares of Common Stock), which is made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock during the term the DER remains outstanding. A special account on the books of the Corporation shall be maintained for each Participant to whom a DER Award is made, and that account shall be credited per DER with each such dividend or distribution made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock during the term of that DER remains outstanding.
3.    Payment of the amounts credited to such book account may be made to the Participant either concurrently with the actual dividend or distribution made per issued and outstanding share of Common Stock or may be deferred for a period specified by the Plan Administrator at the time the DER Award is initially made or designated by the Participant pursuant to a timely-filed deferral election made in accordance with Code Section 409A. 
4.    Payment may be paid in (i) cash, (ii) shares of Common Stock or (iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as specified in the Award Agreement.  If payment is to be made in the form of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock into which the cash dividend or distribution amounts are to be converted for purposes of the Participant’s book account may be based on the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the date of conversion, a prior date or an average of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock over a designated period, as the Plan Administrator shall determine.
5.    The Plan Administrator shall also have the discretionary authority, consistent with Code Section 162(m), to structure one or more DER Awards so that those Awards shall vest 

18




only after the achievement of pre-established performance objectives based upon one or more Performance Goals. 
		
	II.
	CHANGE IN CONTROL


A.    The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority to structure one or more Awards under this Article Four so that those Awards shall automatically vest in whole or in part immediately prior to the effective date of an actual Change in Control transaction or upon the subsequent termination of the Participant’s Service by reason of an Involuntary Termination within a designated period following the effective date of such Change in Control. To the extent any such Award is, at the time of such Change in Control, subject to performance vesting upon the attainment of one or more specified performance goals and the Plan Administrator does not at that time provide otherwise, the performance vesting condition shall automatically be cancelled on the effective date of such Change in Control, and such Award shall thereupon be converted into a Service-vesting Award, based on an assumed attainment of each applicable performance goal at target level, that will vest in one or more increments over the Service-vesting schedule in effect for that Award immediately prior to the Change in Control.
B.    The Plan Administrator’s authority under Paragraph A of this Section II shall also extend to any Awards under this Article Four that are intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), even though the automatic vesting of those Awards pursuant to such Paragraph A may result in their loss of performance-based status under Code Section 162(m).
ARTICLE FIVE
MISCELLANEOUS
		
	I.
	DEFERRED COMPENSATION


A.    The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion,  structure one or more Awards under the Stock Issuance or Incentive Bonus Programs so that the Participants may be provided with an election to defer the compensation associated with those Awards for federal income tax purposes. Any such deferral opportunity shall comply with all applicable requirements of Code Section 409A. 
B.    To the extent the Corporation maintains one or more separate non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements which allow the participants the opportunity to make notional investments of  their deferred account balances in shares of Common Stock, the Plan Administrator may authorize the share reserve under the Plan to serve as the source of  any shares of Common Stock that become payable under those deferred compensation arrangements.  In such event, the share reserve under the Plan shall be reduced on a share-for-one share basis for each share of Common Stock issued under the Plan in settlement of the deferred compensation owed under those separate arrangements.   
C.    To the extent there is any ambiguity as to whether any provision of any Award made under the Plan that is deemed to constitute a deferred compensation arrangement under Code Section 409A would otherwise contravene one or more requirements or limitations of such Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, such provision shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that complies with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. 
		
	II.
	TAX WITHHOLDING 



19




A.    The Corporation’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock upon the exercise, vesting or settlement of an Award under the Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable income and employment tax withholding requirements.
B.    The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, structure one or more Awards so that shares of Common Stock may be used as follows to satisfy all or part of the Withholding Taxes to which such holders of those Awards may become subject in connection with the exercise, vesting or settlement of those Awards: 
1.    Stock Withholding:  The Corporation may be provided with the right to withhold, from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise,  vesting or settlement of such Award, a portion of those shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the applicable Withholding Taxes. The shares of Common Stock so withheld shall reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.
2.    Stock Delivery:  The Award holder may be provided with the right to deliver to the Corporation, at the time of the exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award, one or more shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such individual with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Withholding Taxes (not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the individual.  The shares of Common Stock so delivered shall neither reduce the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan nor be added to the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan.
		
	III.
	SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS


Unvested shares may, in the Plan Administrator’s discretion, be held in escrow by the Corporation until the Participant’s interest in such shares vests or may be issued directly to the Participant with restrictive legends on the certificates evidencing those unvested shares.
		
	IV.
	TERM OF THE PLAN AND EFFECT OF RESTATEMENT


A.    The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) April 23, 2023, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan shall have been issued as fully vested shares or (iii) the termination of all outstanding Awards in connection with a Change in Control.  Should the Plan terminate on April 23, 2023, then all Awards outstanding at that time shall continue to have force and effect in accordance with the provisions of the documents evidencing those Awards. 
B.    The Plan as amended and restated January 30, 2013, effected the following modifications to the provisions of the Plan in effect immediately prior to such amendment and restatement:  
(i)    expanded and re-confirmed the list of financial and non-financial goals that may serve as the performance criteria for the vesting of Awards and the list of permissible adjustments that may be made to such goals in assessing performance goal attainment so that those Awards may qualify as performance-based compensation not subject to the one million dollar ($1,000,000) limitation on income tax deductibility per executive officer imposed under Code Section 162(m); 
(ii)    clarified the treatment of performance-vesting awards in connection with a Change in Control transaction;  

20




(iii)    imposed a limitation on the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan pursuant to Incentive Options; 
(iv)    specified the minimum vesting requirements for Awards made to the non-employee Board members; 
(v)    effected appropriate revisions so as to allow the Plan to continue to comply with the applicable requirements of Code Section 409A;  and
(vi)     extended the term of the Plan until April 23, 2023.
C.    The Plan as amended and restated on July 29, 2015 imposes a minimum one (1) year vesting requirement on grants under the Discretionary Grant Program (subject to certain exceptions).
		
	V.
	AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN 


A.    The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects; provided, however, that shareholder approval shall be required for any amendment to the Plan which materially increases the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan (other than pursuant to Section V.F of Article One), materially expands the class of individuals eligible to participate in the Plan, expands the types of awards which may be made under the Plan or extends the term of the Plan or to the extent such shareholder approval may otherwise be required under applicable law or regulation or pursuant to the listing standards of the Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is at the time primarily traded.  However, no such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect to Awards at the time outstanding under the Plan unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or modification.  
B.    Awards may be made under the Plan that involve shares of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided no shares shall actually be issued pursuant to those Awards until the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan is sufficiently increased by shareholder approval of an amendment of the Plan authorizing such increase.  If such shareholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the date the first excess Award is made, then all Awards granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to be outstanding.
		
	VI.
	USE OF PROCEEDS


Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.


		
	VII.
	REGULATORY APPROVALS


A.    The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any Award under the Plan and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock in connection with the issuance, exercise or vesting of any Award under the Plan shall be subject to the Corporation’s procurement of all approvals and permits required by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the Awards made under the Plan and the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to those Awards.
B.    No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with all applicable requirements of applicable securities 

21




laws, including the filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement for the shares of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements of any Stock Exchange on which Common Stock is then listed for trading. 
		
	VIII.
	NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS


Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee or the Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such person) or of the Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate such person’s Service at any time for any reason, with or without cause.



22
