reduced by the sum of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which become subject to outstanding Stock Options, outstanding Free-Standing SARs,

connection with the exercise of a Tandem SAR), Free-Standing SAR, Restricted Stock Award or Performance Grant are not issued or delivered by reason of the expiration, termination, cancellation or forfeiture of such award or by reason of the delivery
or withholding of shares of Common Stock to pay all or a portion of the exercise price of an award, if any, or to satisfy all or a portion of the tax withholding obligations relating to an award, then such shares of Common Stock shall again be
available under this Plan. Shares of Common Stock shall be made available from authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, reacquired shares, or any combination thereof. 
  
 Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.7, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which
Restricted Stock Awards, Performance Grants or a combination thereof shall be made under this Plan shall not exceed 15 percent of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available under this Plan, as set forth in the first sentence of this
Section 1.5. 
  
 To the extent necessary for an award to be
qualified performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which Stock Options, SARs, Restricted Stock, or Performance Grants may be issued to any individual
during a calendar year shall be one-half of one percent of the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as of the preceding December 31st. The maximum amount of cash payable during a calendar year to any person in connection with a Performance Grant shall be $8,000,000. 
  
 1.6 Employment. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, references to
“employment” with the Company or “employment with or service to the Company” shall mean the employment with or service to the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate, including transfers of employment between the Company, a

 II. STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 
  
 2.1. Stock Options. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Stock Options to such eligible persons as may be selected by the Committee. An Incentive Stock Option may not be granted to any person who is not an
employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary (as defined in Section 424 of the Code). Each Incentive Stock Option shall be granted within ten years of the date this Plan is adopted by the Board. To the extent the aggregate Fair Market Value
(determined as of the date of grant) of shares of Common Stock with respect to which options designated as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or any other plan of the
Company, or any parent or subsidiary as defined in Section 424 of the Code) exceeds the amount (currently $100,000) established by the Code, such options shall constitute Nonqualified Stock Options. 

  

 - 8 - 








 
Stock Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms
of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable: 
  
 (a) Number of Shares
and Purchase Price. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to a Stock Option shall be determined by the Committee. The purchase price per share of Common Stock purchasable upon exercise of a Stock Option shall not be less than 100% of the
Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant of such Stock Option; provided, however, that if an Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any person who, at the time such Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns capital stock
possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company (or of any parent or subsidiary as defined in Section 424 of the Code) (a “Ten Percent Holder”), the purchase price
per share of Common Stock shall be the price (currently 110% of Fair Market Value) required by the Code in order to constitute an Incentive Stock Option. 
  
 (b) Option Period and Exercisability. The period during which a Stock Option may be exercised shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no
Incentive Stock Option shall be exercised later than ten years after its date of grant; provided further, that if an Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to a Ten Percent Holder, such Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercised later than five
years after its date of grant. The Committee may, in its discretion, establish Performance Measures which shall be satisfied or met as a condition to the grant of a Stock Option or to the exercisability of all or a portion of a Stock Option. The
Committee shall determine whether a Stock Option shall become exercisable in cumulative or non-cumulative installments and in part or in full at any time. An exercisable Stock Option, or portion thereof, may be exercised only with respect to whole
shares of Common Stock. 
  
 (c) Method of Exercise. A Stock Option may be
exercised (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of whole shares of Common Stock to be purchased and accompanied by payment therefor in full (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction) either
(A) in cash, (B) by delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) of Mature Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date of exercise, equal to the aggregate purchase price
payable by reason of such exercise, (C) in cash by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom the optionee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise or (D) by a combination of (A) and (B), in each case to the extent set forth in the
Agreement relating to the Stock Option, (ii) if applicable, by surrendering to the Company any Tandem SARs which are canceled by reason of the exercise of the Stock Option and (iii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request.
Any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would be required to pay such purchase price shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due shall be paid in cash by the optionee. No certificate representing Common Stock shall be delivered until the
full purchase price therefor, and any withholding taxes thereon, as described in Section 5.5, have been paid (or arrangement made for such payment to the Company’s satisfaction). 
  
 (d) Minimum Vesting Period. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, no Stock Option may become exercisable until six months from
the date such Stock Option was granted. 
  
 (e) Repricing and Discounting.
Subject to Section 5.7, the repricing or discounting of Stock Options is expressly disallowed under this Plan.

 2.2. Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant SARs to such eligible
persons as may be selected by the Committee. The Agreement relating to an SAR shall specify whether the SAR is a Tandem SAR or a Free-Standing SAR. 
  
 SARs shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the
Committee shall deem advisable: 
  
 (a) Number of SARs and Base Price. The
number of SARs subject to an award shall be determined by the Committee. Any Tandem SAR related to an Incentive Stock Option shall be granted at the same time that such Incentive Stock Option is granted. The base price of a Tandem SAR shall be the
purchase price per share of Common Stock of the related Stock Option. The base price of a Free-Standing SAR shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date such Free-Standing SAR is granted. 
  
 (b) Exercise Period and Exercisability. The Agreement relating to an award of SARs
shall specify whether such award may be settled in shares of Common Stock (including shares of Restricted Stock) or cash or a combination thereof. The period for the exercise of an SAR shall be determined by the Committee; provided, however, that no
Tandem SAR shall be exercised later than the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture or other termination of the related Stock Option. The Committee may, in its discretion, establish Performance Measures which shall be satisfied or met as a condition
to the grant of an SAR or to the exercisability of all or a portion of an SAR. The Committee shall determine whether an SAR may be exercised in cumulative or non-cumulative installments and in part or in full at any time. An exercisable SAR, or
portion thereof, may be exercised, in the case of a Tandem SAR, only with respect to whole shares of Common Stock and, in the case of a Free-Standing SAR, only with respect to a whole number of SARs. If an SAR is exercised for shares of Restricted
Stock, a certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Stock shall be issued in accordance with Section 3.2(c) and the holder of such Restricted Stock shall have such rights of a stockholder of the Company as determined pursuant to
Section 3.2(d). Prior to the exercise of an SAR for shares of Common Stock, including Restricted Stock, the holder of such SAR shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to such SAR and
shall have rights as a stockholder of the Company in accordance with Section 5.10. 
  
 (c) Method of Exercise. A Tandem SAR may be exercised (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the number of whole SARs which are being exercised, (ii) by surrendering to the Company any Stock Options which are canceled
by reason of the exercise of the Tandem SAR and (iii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. A Free-Standing SAR may be exercised (i) by giving written notice to the Company specifying the whole number of SARs which are
being exercised and (ii) by executing such documents as the Company may reasonably request. 
  
 (d) Minimum Vesting Period. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, no SAR may become exercisable until six months from the date such SAR was granted. 
  
 (e) Repricing and Discounting. Subject to Section 5.7, the repricing or discounting of
SARs is expressly disallowed under this Plan.

 2.3. Termination of Employment or Service. 
  
 (a) Disability. Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a
Stock Option or SAR terminates by reason of Disability, each Stock Option and SAR held by such holder shall become fully vested and exercisable and may thereafter be exercised by such holder (or such holder’s legal representative or similar
person) until the date which is one year after the effective date of such holder’s termination of employment or service, or if earlier, the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option or SAR. 
  
 (b) Retirement. Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, if the employment with or
service to the Company of the holder of a Stock Option or SAR terminates by reason of Retirement, each Stock Option and SAR held by such holder shall continue to vest in accordance with its terms, and to the extent vested, may thereafter be
exercised by such holder (or such holder’s legal representative or similar person) until the date which is four years after the effective date of such holder’s termination of employment or service, or if earlier, the expiration date of the
term of such Stock Option or SAR. 
  
 (c) Death. Unless otherwise specified
in the Agreement, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Stock Option or SAR terminates by reason of death, each Stock Option and SAR held by such holder shall become fully vested and exercisable and may thereafter be
exercised by such holder’s executor, administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person until the date which is one year after the date of death, or if earlier, the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option or SAR.

  
 (d) Involuntary Termination Without Cause. Unless otherwise specified
in the Agreement, and except as provided in this subsection and Section 5.8, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Stock Option or SAR is terminated by the Company, a Subsidiary or an Affiliate without Cause, each Stock
Option and SAR held by such holder shall cease to vest, and to the extent already vested, may thereafter be exercised by such holder (or such holder’s legal representative or similar person) until the date which is three months after such
involuntary termination, or if earlier, the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option or SAR. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the provisions of Section 5.8, each Stock Option or SAR granted on or after July 26, 2005 to a holder
described in the foregoing sentence who is a participant in the Severance/Change in Control policy applicable to members of the Company’s executive committee shall continue to vest in accordance with its terms, and to the extent vested, may
thereafter be exercised by such holder (or such holder’s legal representative or similar person) until the end of the severance period applicable to the holder under such Severance/Change in Control policy or, if earlier, the expiration date of
the term of such Stock Option or SAR. 
  
 (e) Other Termination. Unless
otherwise specified in the Agreement, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Stock Option or SAR terminates for any reason other than Disability, Retirement, death, or involuntary termination without Cause, each Stock
Option and SAR held by such holder shall cease to vest, and to the extent already vested, may thereafter be exercised by such holder (or such holder’s legal representative or similar person) until the close of the New York Stock Exchange (if
open) on the date of such holder’s termination of employment or service. If the New York Stock Exchange is closed at the time of such holder’s 

  

 - 11 - 








 
termination of employment, then such Stock Option or SAR shall be forfeited at the time such holder’s employment is terminated and shall be canceled by
the Company. 
  
 (f) Death Following Termination of Employment or Service.
Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, if the holder of a Stock Option or SAR dies during the applicable Post-Termination Exercise Period, each Stock Option and SAR held by such holder shall be exercisable only to the extent that such Stock
Option or SAR is exercisable on the date of such holder’s death and may thereafter be exercised by the holder’s executor, administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person until the date which is one year after the date of
death, or if earlier, the expiration date of the term of such Stock Option or SAR.

Restricted Stock Awards. The Committee may, in its discretion, grant Restricted Stock Awards to such eligible persons as may be selected by the Committee. 
  
 3.2. Terms of Restricted Stock Awards. Restricted Stock Awards shall be subject to the following terms and conditions
and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable. 
  
 (a) Number of Shares and Other Terms. The number of shares of Common Stock subject to a Restricted Stock Award and the Performance Measures (if any) and the
Restriction Period applicable to a Restricted Stock Award shall be determined by the Committee. 
  
 (b) Vesting and Forfeiture. The Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award shall provide, in the manner determined by the Committee, in its discretion, and subject to the provisions of this Plan, for the
vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to such award (i) if specified Performance Measures are satisfied or met during the specified Restriction Period or (ii) if the holder of such award remains continuously in the employment of or service
to the Company during the specified Restriction Period and for the forfeiture of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to such award (x) if specified Performance Measures are not satisfied or met during the specified Restriction
Period or (y) if the holder of such award does not remain continuously in the employment of or service to the Company during the specified Restriction Period. 
  

(c) Share Certificates. During the Restriction Period, a certificate or certificates representing a Restricted Stock Award may be registered in the
holder’s name or a nominee name at the discretion of the Company and may bear a legend, in addition to any legend which may be required pursuant to Section 5.6, indicating that the ownership of the shares of Common Stock represented by such
certificate is subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions of this Plan and the Agreement relating to the Restricted Stock Award. As determined by the Committee, all certificates registered in the holder’s name shall be deposited with the
Company, together with stock powers or other instruments of assignment (including a power of attorney), each endorsed in blank with a guarantee of signature if deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company, which would permit transfer to the
Company of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Award in the event such award is forfeited in whole or in part. Upon termination of any applicable Restriction Period (and the satisfaction or attainment of
applicable Performance Measures), subject to the Company’s right to require payment of any taxes in 

  

 - 12 - 








 
accordance with Section 5.5, a certificate or certificates evidencing ownership of the requisite number of shares of Common Stock shall be delivered to the
holder of such award. 
  
 (d) Rights with Respect to Restricted Stock
Awards. Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, the holder of such award shall have all rights as a stockholder of the Company, including voting rights, the right to receive dividends and the right to
participate in any capital adjustment applicable to all holders of Common Stock; provided, however, that a distribution with respect to shares of Common Stock shall be deposited with the Company and shall be subject to the same restrictions as the
shares of Common Stock with respect to which such distribution was made. 
  
 (e) Minimum Restriction Period. The minimum Restriction Period shall be one year. 
  
 3.3. Termination of Employment or Service. 
  
 (a) Disability and Death. Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of such award terminates by reason of
Disability or death, the Restriction Period shall terminate as of the effective date of such holder’s termination of employment or service and all Performance Measures applicable to such award shall be deemed to have been satisfied at the
maximum level. 
  
 (b) Retirement. Unless otherwise set forth in the
Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of such award terminates by reason of Retirement, the Restriction Period shall terminate as of the date specified in the Agreement, after
which time all Performance Measures applicable to such award shall be deemed to have been satisfied at the maximum level and such Restricted Stock shall be released to the holder of the award as of such specified date; provided, however, that any
Restricted Stock Award that is subject to a Restriction Period extending beyond four years from the date of such holder’s Retirement shall be immediately forfeited and canceled. 
  
 (c) Other Termination. Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement relating to a Restricted Stock Award, and except as provided in
this subsection and Section 5.8, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Restricted Stock Award terminates for any reason other than Disability, Retirement or death, the portion of such award which is subject to a
Restriction Period on the effective date of such holder’s termination of employment or service shall be immediately forfeited by such holder and canceled by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the provisions of Section
5.8, the holder of any Restricted Stock Award granted on or after July 26, 2005 (other than the holder of an award which vests only if specified Performance Measures are satisfied) whose employment with the Company is terminated by the Company, a
Subsidiary or an Affiliate without Cause and who is a participant in the Severance/Change in Control policy applicable to members of the Company’s executive committee shall be treated as having remained continuously employed by the Company for
purposes of the Restriction Period applicable to such award during the severance period applicable to the holder under such Severance/Change in Control policy. The portion of any Restricted Stock Award which is subject to a Restriction Period at the
time of the expiration of such severance period shall be immediately forfeited by the holder and canceled by the Company.

be selected by the Committee.

Grants. Performance Grants shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan, as the Committee shall deem advisable. 
  
 (a) Amount of Performance Grant and Performance Measures. The Agreement shall provide
the amount of the Performance Grant and a description of the Performance Measures and the Performance Period applicable to such Performance Grant, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. 
  
 (b) Vesting and Forfeiture. The Agreement shall provide, in the manner determined by
the Committee in its discretion, for the vesting of a Performance Grant, if specified Performance Measures are satisfied during the specified Performance Period, and for the forfeiture of all or a portion of such award, if specified Performance

Settlement of Vested Performance Grants. The Agreement (i) shall specify whether a Performance Grant may be settled in shares of Common Stock, Restricted Stock, or cash or a combination thereof and (ii) may specify whether the holder thereof
shall be entitled to receive, on a current or deferred basis, dividend equivalents, and, if determined by the Committee, interest on or the deemed reinvestment of any deferred dividend equivalents, with respect to the number of shares of Common
Stock subject to such award, if any. If a Performance Grant is settled in shares of Restricted Stock, a certificate or certificates representing such Restricted Stock shall be issued in accordance with Section 3.2(c) and the holder of such
Restricted Stock shall have such rights of a stockholder of the Company as determined pursuant to Section 3.2(d). Prior to the settlement of a Performance Grant in shares of Common Stock or Restricted Stock the holder of such award shall have no
rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock subject to such award and shall have rights as a stockholder of the Company in accordance with Section 5.10.

Grant is one year from the date such grant is made. 
  
 4.3. Termination of
Employment or Service. 
  
 (a) Disability, Retirement and Death.
Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Performance Grant terminates during the Performance Period by reason of Disability, Retirement or death, the Performance Period shall
continue and the holder, or the holder’s executor, administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person, as applicable, shall be entitled to a prorated award. Such prorated award shall be equal to the value of the award at the end
of the Performance Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of months such holder was employed with or performing services for the Company during the Performance Period (fractional months shall be ignored) and
the denominator of which shall equal the number of months in the Performance Period; provided, however, that such holder, or such holder’s executor, 

  

 - 14 - 








 
administrator, legal representative, beneficiary or similar person, as applicable, shall not be entitled to payment or distribution of such Performance Grant
earlier than the date set forth in the Agreement. 
  
 (b) Other
Termination. Unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement, if the employment with or service to the Company of the holder of a Performance Grant terminates during the Performance Period for any reason other than Disability, Retirement or death,
each Performance Grant that is not vested shall be immediately forfeited. 
  
 V. GENERAL 
  
 5.1. Effective
Date and Term of Plan. This Plan shall be submitted to the stockholders of the Company for approval and, if approved, shall become effective as of the date of approval by the Board. No Stock Option may be exercised prior to the date of such
stockholder approval. This Plan shall terminate when shares of Common Stock are no longer available for the grant, exercise or settlement of awards, unless terminated earlier by the Board. Termination of this Plan shall not affect the terms or
conditions of any award granted prior to termination. If this Plan is not approved by the stockholders of the Company, this Plan and any awards granted hereunder shall be null and void. 
  
 5.2. Amendments. The Board or the Committee may amend or terminate this Plan as it shall deem advisable, subject to any
requirement of stockholder approval required by applicable law, rule or regulation, including Section 162(m) and Section 422 of the Code; provided, however, that no amendment shall be made without stockholder approval if such amendment would (i)
increase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available under this Plan (subject to Section 5.7) or (ii) effect any change inconsistent with Section 422 of the Code. No amendment may impair the rights of a holder (the determination of which
shall be made by the Committee in its sole discretion) of an outstanding award without the consent of such holder. 
  
 5.3. Agreement. The Company may condition an award holder’s right (i) to exercise, vest or settle the award and (ii) to receive delivery of
shares, on the execution and delivery to the Company of the Agreement and the completion of other requirements, including, but not limited to, the execution of a nonsolicitation agreement by the recipient and delivery thereof to the Company.

  
 5.4. Transferability of Stock Options. Stock Options may
not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of by the holder thereof, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, as long as the
holder continues employment with or service to the Company, such holder may transfer Stock Options to a Family Member or Family Entity without consideration; provided, however, in the case of a transfer of Stock Options to a limited liability
company or a partnership which is a Family Entity, such transfer may be for consideration consisting solely of an entity interest in the limited liability company or partnership to which the transfer is made. Any transfer of Stock Options shall be
in a form acceptable to the Committee, shall be signed by the holder and shall be effective only upon written acknowledgement by the Committee of its receipt and acceptance of such notice. If a Stock Option is transferred to a Family Member or to a
Family Entity, such Stock Option may not thereafter be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated 

  

 - 15 - 








 
or otherwise disposed of by such Family Member or Family Entity except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. 
  
 5.5. Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to require, as of
the grant, vesting, or exercise of an award, the sale of any shares of Common Stock, the receipt of any dividends or the payment of any cash pursuant to an award made hereunder, payment by the holder of such award of any federal, state, local or
other income, social insurance, payroll or other tax-related items which may be required to be withheld or paid in connection with such award. An Agreement may provide that (i) the Company shall withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would
otherwise be delivered to a holder, including withholding from wages or other cash compensation otherwise due to the holder, having an aggregate Fair Market Value determined as of the date the obligation to withhold or pay taxes arises in connection
with an award (the “Tax Date”), or withhold an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to a holder, in the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation or (ii) the holder may satisfy any such obligation by any of the
following means: (A) a cash payment to the Company, (B) delivery (either actual delivery or by attestation procedures established by the Company) to the Company of Common Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date,
equal to the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation, (C) authorizing the Company to withhold whole shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be delivered having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the Tax Date, or withhold
an amount of cash which would otherwise be payable to a holder, equal to the amount necessary to satisfy any such obligation, (D) in the case of the exercise of a Stock Option, a cash payment by a broker-dealer acceptable to the Company to whom the
optionee has submitted an irrevocable notice of exercise, in each case to the extent set forth in the Agreement relating to an award, or (E) any combination of (A) and (B). Shares of Common Stock to be delivered or withheld may not have an aggregate
Fair Market Value in excess of the amount determined by applying the minimum statutory withholding rate. Any fraction of a share of Common Stock which would be required to satisfy such an obligation shall be disregarded and the remaining amount due
shall be paid in cash by the holder 
  
 5.6. Restrictions on
Shares. Each award made hereunder shall be subject to the requirement that if at any time the Company determines that the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Common Stock subject to such award upon any securities exchange
or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the vesting, exercise or settlement of such award or the delivery of shares
thereunder, such award shall not vest, be exercised or settled and such shares shall not be delivered unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or other action shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions
not acceptable to the Company. In addition, the Committee may condition the grant of an award on compliance with certain listing, registration or other qualifications applicable to the award under any law or any obligation to obtain the consent or
approval of a governmental body. The Company may require that certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered pursuant to any award made hereunder bear a legend indicating that the sale, transfer or other disposition thereof by the holder
is prohibited except in compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. 
  
 5.7. Adjustment. In the event of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange of
shares, liquidation, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any distribution to holders of Common Stock 

  

 - 16 - 








 
other than a regular cash dividend, the number and class of securities available under this Plan, the maximum number of securities available for Restricted
Stock Awards and Performance Grants, the number and class of securities subject to each outstanding Stock Option and the purchase price per security, the terms of each outstanding Stock Option, the maximum number of securities with respect to which
Stock Options or SARs (or a combination thereof), or Restricted Stock Awards or Performance Grants may be made or granted during any calendar year to any person, the terms of each outstanding SAR, the number and class of securities subject to each
outstanding Restricted Stock Award or Performance Grant, and the terms of each outstanding Restricted Stock Award or Performance Grant shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, such adjustments to be made in the case of outstanding Stock
Options and SARs without an increase in the aggregate purchase price or base price. The decision of the Committee regarding any such adjustment shall be final, binding and conclusive. If any such adjustment would result in a fractional security
being (a) available under this Plan, such fractional security shall be disregarded, or (b) subject to an award under this Plan, the Company shall pay the holder of such award, in connection with the first vesting, exercise or settlement of such
award in whole or in part occurring after such adjustment, an amount in cash determined by multiplying (i) the fraction of such security (rounded to the nearest hundredth) by (ii) the excess, if any, of (A) the Fair Market Value on the vesting,
exercise or settlement date over (B) the exercise or base price, if any, of such award. 
  
 5.8. Change in Control. As of the effective date of a Change in Control (a) each outstanding Stock Option and SAR granted under the Plan shall become fully vested and exercisable, (b) the Restriction Period applicable
to each outstanding Restricted Stock Award granted under the Plan shall lapse, (c) the Performance Period applicable to any outstanding Performance Grant issued under the Plan (other than a Shareholder Value Plan Award issued prior to July 26, 2005)
shall lapse, and (d) the Performance Measures applicable to any outstanding award under the Plan (other than a Shareholder Value Plan Award issued prior to July 26, 2005) shall be deemed to be satisfied at the target level (or if greater, at the
performance level actually attained). Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, each Stock Option or SAR granted on or after July 26, 2005 to a holder whose employment is terminated for an eligible reason according to the terms of
the Company severance policy applicable to the holder as of the effective date of a Change in Control during the period commencing on and ending twenty-four months after the effective date of the Change in Control shall remain exercisable by such
holder (or his or her legal representative or similar person) until the earlier of (y) the end of the non-conditional component of the severance period applicable to the holder under such severance policy or, if later, the end of the exercise period
otherwise applicable to the award under the Plan, or (z) the expiration date of the term of the Stock Option or SAR. 
  
 5.9. No Right of Participation or Employment. No person shall have any right to participate in this Plan. Neither this Plan nor any award made
hereunder shall confer upon any person any right to continued employment by the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Company to terminate the
employment of any person at any time without liability hereunder. 
  
 5.10.
Rights as Stockholder. No person shall have any right as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of Common Stock or other equity security of the Company which is 

  

 - 17 - 








 
subject to an award hereunder unless and until such person becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares of Common Stock or equity security.

  
 5.11. Designation of Beneficiary. If permitted by the
Committee, the holder of an award may file with the Committee a written designation of one or more persons as such holder’s beneficiary or beneficiaries (both primary and contingent) in the event of the holder’s death. To the extent an
outstanding Stock Option or SAR granted hereunder is exercisable, such beneficiary or beneficiaries shall be entitled to exercise such Stock Option or SAR to the extent permitted under local law. 
  
 Each beneficiary designation shall become effective only when filed in writing with the
Committee during the holder’s lifetime on a form prescribed by the Committee. The spouse of a married holder domiciled in a community property jurisdiction shall join in any designation of a beneficiary other than such spouse. The filing with
the Committee of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all previously filed beneficiary designations. 
  
 If a holder fails to designate a beneficiary, or if all designated beneficiaries of a holder predecease the holder, then each outstanding Stock Option and SAR hereunder held by such holder, to the extent exercisable,
may be exercised by such holder’s executor, administrator, legal representative or similar person. 
  
 5.12. Governing Law. This Plan, each award hereunder and the related Agreement, and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant thereto, to the extent not otherwise governed by the Code or
the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and construed in accordance therewith without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. 
  
 5.13. Foreign Employees. The Committee may adopt, amend or rescind rules, procedures or sub-plans relating to the
operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures and to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of this Plan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee is
specifically authorized to adopt rules, procedures and sub-plans with provisions that limit or modify rights on death, Disability or Retirement or on termination of employment; available methods of exercise or settlement of an award; payment of
income, social insurance contributions and payroll taxes; the withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates which vary with local requirements. The Committee may also adopt rules, procedures or sub-plans applicable to particular
Subsidiaries, Affiliates or locations. The rules of such sub-plans may take precedence over other provisions of this Plan, with the exception of Sections 1.5 and 5.2, but unless otherwise superseded by the terms of such sub-plan, the provisions of
this Plan shall govern the operation of such sub-plan. 
  
 5.14.
Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an award holder employed by or providing service to an entity that is a Subsidiary or an Affiliate under this Plan shall be deemed to have
terminated employment with or service to the Company for purposes of this Plan on the date that such entity ceases to be a Subsidiary or an Affiliate hereunder.
