 4. Eligibility. 
  

	 	(a)	Employees. Employees eligible for the grant of Employee Awards under this Plan are those Employee Directors and Employees who hold positions of responsibility and whose

 3 









	 	(b)	Directors. Members of the Board eligible for the grant of Director Awards under this Plan are those who are Nonemployee Directors. 

 5. Common Stock Available for Awards. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 16 hereof, there shall be available for Awards under this Plan
granted or payable wholly or partly in Common Stock (including rights or Options that may be exercised for or settled in Common Stock) an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock plus (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that are the
subject of Awards outstanding on the Shareholder Effective Date and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock that remain available for Award under the Existing Plan on the Shareholder Effective Date. All of the shares authorized for issuance
may be issued pursuant to Incentive Options, Nonqualified Stock Options or any combination thereof. No more than 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock are available for issuance pursuant to Stock Awards (including Stock Awards that are granted as
Performance Awards). 
 The number of shares of Common Stock that are the subject of Awards under this Plan that are forfeited or terminated,

of Common Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall be reduced by the full number of SARs granted, and the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under this Plan shall not thereafter be increased upon the exercise of the
SARs and settlement in shares of Common Stock, even if the actual number of shares of Common Stock delivered in settlement of the SARs is less than the full number of SARs exercised. Any shares of Common Stock that are tendered by a Participant or
withheld as full or partial payment of withholding or other taxes or as payment for the exercise or conversion price of an Award under this Plan shall not be added back to the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under this Plan.
Shares of Common Stock delivered under the Plan as an Award or in settlement of an Award issued or made (a) upon the assumption, substitution, conversion or replacement of outstanding awards under a plan or arrangement of an entity acquired in
a merger or other acquisition or (b) as a post-transaction grant under such a plan or arrangement of an acquired entity shall not reduce or be counted against the maximum number of shares of Common Stock available for delivery under the Plan,
to the extent that the exemption for transactions in connection with mergers acquisitions from the shareholder approval requirements of the New York Stock Exchange for equity compensation plans applies. The Board and the appropriate officers of the
Corporation are authorized to take from time to time whatever actions are necessary, and to file any required documents with governmental authorities, stock exchanges and transaction reporting systems to ensure that shares of Common Stock are
available for issuance pursuant to Awards. 
 6. Administration. 
  

	 	(a)	This Plan shall be administered by the Committee except as otherwise provided herein. 

  

	 	(b)	 Subject to the provisions hereof, the Committee shall have full and exclusive power and authority to administer this Plan and to take all actions that are
specifically contemplated hereby or are necessary or appropriate in connection with the administration hereof. The Committee shall also have full and exclusive power to interpret this Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations and guidelines for
carrying out this Plan as it may deem necessary or proper, all of which powers shall be exercised in the best interests of the Corporation and in keeping with the objectives of this Plan. To the extent not inconsistent with the 



  

 4 









	 	 
other provisions of the Plan, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide for the extension of the exercisability of an Award, accelerate the vesting or
exercisability of an Award, eliminate or make less restrictive any restrictions applicable to an Award, waive any restriction or other provision of this Plan (insofar as such provision relates to Awards) or an Award or otherwise amend or modify an
Award in any manner that is either (i) not adverse to the Participant to whom such Award was granted or (ii) consented to by such Participant. Except in connection with a corporate transaction involving the Corporation (including, without
limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, or exchange of shares), the terms of outstanding Awards may not be amended to reduce
the exercise price of outstanding Options or SARs or cancel, exchange, substitute, buyout or surrender outstanding Options or SARs in exchange for cash, other awards or Options or SARs with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of
the original Options or SARs without stockholder approval. The Committee may make an Award to an individual who it expects to become an Employee of the Corporation or any of its Affiliates within the next six months, with such award being subject to
the individual’s actually becoming an Employee within such time period, and subject to such other terms and conditions as may be established by the Committee. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency in this Plan or in any Award in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable to further the Plan purposes. Any decision of the Committee, with respect to Awards, in the interpretation and administration of
this Plan shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned. 


  

	 	(c)	No member of the Committee or officer of the Corporation to whom the Committee has delegated authority in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 7 of this Plan shall be liable
for anything done or omitted to be done by him or her, by any member of the Committee or by any officer of the Corporation in connection with the performance of any duties under this Plan, except for his or her own willful misconduct or as expressly
provided by statute. 

 7. Delegation of Authority. Except with respect to matters under Section 162(m) that
are required to be determined or established by the Committee to qualify Awards to Executive Officers as qualified “performance-based compensation,” the Committee may delegate to the Chief Executive Officer and to other senior officers of
the Corporation or to any other committee of the Board its duties and its authority to grant Awards under this Plan pursuant to such conditions or limitations as the Committee may establish. The Committee may engage or authorize the
engagement of a third party administrator to carry out administrative functions under the Plan. 
 8. Awards. 
  

	 	(a)	 The Committee shall determine the type or types of Awards to be made under this Plan and shall designate from time to time the Participants who are to be the
recipients of such Awards. Each Award may, in the discretion of the Committee, be embodied in an Award Agreement, which shall contain such terms, conditions and limitations as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion and, if
required by the Committee, shall be signed by the Participant to whom the Award is granted and by an Authorized Officer for and on behalf of the Corporation. Awards may consist of those listed in this paragraph 8(a) and may be granted singly, in
combination or in tandem. Awards may also be granted in combination or in tandem with, in replacement of (subject to paragraph 14), or as alternatives to, grants or rights under this Plan or any other plan of the Corporation or any of its
Affiliates, including the plan of 



  

 5 









	 	 
any acquired entity. An Award may provide for the grant or issuance of additional, replacement or alternative Awards upon the occurrence of specified events.
All or part of an Award may be subject to conditions established by the Committee, which may include, but are not limited to, continuous service with the Corporation and its Affiliates, achievement of specific business objectives, increases in
specified indices, attainment of specified growth rates, as referenced in clause (v) below, and other comparable measurements of performance. Upon the termination of employment by a Participant who is an Employee, any unexercised, deferred,
unvested or unpaid Employee Awards shall be treated as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement or as otherwise specified by the Committee. 


  

	 	(i)	Option. An Employee Award or Director Award may be in the form of an Option; provided that Options granted as Director Awards are not Incentive Stock Options. The
Grant Price of an Option shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of Common Stock subject to such Option on the Grant Date. Notwithstanding anything contrary contained in this Plan, in no event shall the term of the Option extend more than ten
(10) years after the Grant Date. Options may not include provisions that “reload” the option upon exercise. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Options awarded to Participants
pursuant to this Plan, including the Grant Price, the term of the Options, the number of shares subject to the Option and the date or dates upon which they become exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee. 

  

	 	(ii)	Stock Appreciation Rights. An Employee Award may be in the form of an SAR. On the Grant Date, the Grant Price of an SAR shall be not less than the Fair Market Value of
Common Stock subject to such SAR. The holder of a tandem SAR may elect to exercise either the option or the SAR, but not both. The exercise period for an SAR shall extend no more than 10 years after the Grant Date. Subject to the foregoing
provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any SARs awarded pursuant to this Plan, including the Grant Price, the term of any SARs and the date or dates upon which they become exercisable, shall be determined by the Committee.


  

	 	(iii)	Stock Award. An Employee Award or Director Award may be in the form of a Stock Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Stock Awards granted to
Participants pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee; provided that any Stock Award granted as an Employee Award which is not a Performance Award shall have a minimum Restriction Period of three years from the Grant Date, provided
that (i) the Committee may provide for earlier vesting following a change in control or other specified events involving the Corporation or upon a Participant’s termination of employment by reason of death, disability or retirement,
(ii) such three-year minimum Restriction Period shall not apply to a Stock Award that is granted in lieu of salary or bonus, and (iii) vesting of a Stock Award may occur incrementally over the three-year minimum Restricted Period;
provided, that up to 150,000 shares of Common Stock shall be available for issuance as Stock Awards having a time-based Restriction Period of less than three years but not less than one year. 

  

	 	(iv)	Cash Award. An Employee Award may be in the form of a Cash Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Cash Awards granted pursuant to this Plan
shall be determined by the Committee. 

  

 6 









	 	(v)	Performance Award. Without limiting the type or number of Employee Awards or Director Awards that may be made under the other provisions of this Plan, an Employee
Award or Director Award may be in the form of a Performance Award. The terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Performance Awards granted to Participants pursuant to this Plan shall be determined by the Committee; provided that any Stock
Award granted as an Employee Award which is a Performance Award shall have a minimum Restriction Period of one year from the Grant Date, provided that the Committee may provide for earlier vesting following a change in control or other specified
events involving the Corporation or upon a Participant’s termination of employment by reason of death, disability or retirement. The Committee shall set Performance Goals in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met,
will determine the value and/or amount of Performance Awards that will be paid out to the Participant and/or the portion of an Award that may be exercised. 

  

	 	(A)	Nonqualified Performance Awards. Performance Awards granted to Employees or Directors that are not intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under
Section 162(m) of the Code shall be based on achievement of such goals and be subject to such terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee or its delegate shall determine. 

  

	 	(B)	 Qualified Performance Awards. Performance Awards granted to Employees under the Plan that are intended to qualify as qualified performance-based compensation under
Section 162(m) of the Code shall be paid, vested or otherwise deliverable solely on account of the attainment of one or more pre-established, objective Performance Goals established by the Committee prior to the earlier to occur of (x) 90
days after the commencement of the period of service to which the Performance Goal relates and (y) the lapse of 25% of the period of service (as scheduled in good faith at the time the goal is established), and in any event while the outcome is
substantially uncertain. A Performance Goal is objective if a third party having knowledge of the relevant facts could determine whether the goal is met. Such a Performance Goal may be based on one or more business criteria that apply to the
Employee, one or more business units, divisions, or sectors of the Corporation, or the Corporation as a whole, and if so desired by the Committee, by comparison with a peer group of companies. A Performance Goal may include one or more of the
following: Stock price measures (including but not limited to growth measures and total shareholder return); Earnings per share (actual or targeted growth); Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”);
Economic value added (“EVA”); Net income measures (including but not limited to income after capital costs and income before or after taxes); Operating income; Cash flow measures; Return measures (including but not limited to return on
average assets, risk-adjusted return on capital, and return on average 



  

 7 









	 	 
equity); Operating measures (including but not limited to sales volumes, production volumes and production efficiency); Expense measures (including but not
limited to overhead cost and general and administrative expense); Margins; and corporate values measures (including but not limited to ethics compliance, environmental, and safety). 


  

	 	  	Unless otherwise stated, such a Performance Goal need not be based upon an increase or positive result under a particular business criterion and could include, for example,
maintaining the status quo or limiting economic losses (measured, in each case, by reference to specific business criteria). In interpreting Plan provisions applicable to Performance Goals and Qualified Performance Awards, it is the intent of the
Plan to conform with the standards of Section 162(m) of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.162-27(e)(2)(i), as to grants to those Employees whose compensation is, or is likely to be, subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, and the
Committee in establishing such goals and interpreting the Plan shall be guided by such provisions. Prior to the payment of any compensation based on the achievement of Performance Goals, the Committee must certify in writing that applicable
Performance Goals and any of the material terms thereof were, in fact, satisfied. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to any Qualified Performance Awards made pursuant to this Plan shall be
determined by the Committee. 

  

	 	(b)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan, the following limitations shall apply to any Employee Awards made hereunder: 

  

	 	(i)	no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Employee Awards consisting of Options or SARs (including Options or SARs that are granted as Performance Awards) that are
exercisable for more than 600,000 shares of Common Stock; 

  

	 	(ii)	no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Employee Awards consisting of Stock Awards (including Stock Awards that are granted as Performance Awards) covering or
relating to more than 300,000 shares of Common Stock (the limitation set forth in this clause (ii), together with the limitation set forth in clause (i) above and (c)(i) and (ii) below, being hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Stock Based Awards Limitations”); and 

  

	 	(iii)	no Participant may be granted Employee Awards under this Plan consisting of cash (including Awards that are granted as Performance Awards) in respect of any fiscal year having a
value determined on the Grant Date in excess of $3,000,000. 

  

	 	(c)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan the following limitations shall apply to any Director Awards made hereunder: 

  

	 	(i)	no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Director Awards consisting of Options that are exercisable for more than 75,000 shares of Common Stock and


  

 8 









	 	(ii)	no Participant may be granted, during any fiscal year, Director Awards consisting of Stock Awards covering or relating to more than 45,000 shares of Common Stock.


  

	 	(d)	Prior to the effective date of this amendment and restatement, certain awards on shares of Common Stock (the “Prior Awards”) had been granted under the Prior Plans as in
effect from time to time. As of the effective date of the Existing Plan, each Prior Award continued to be outstanding and the shares of Common Stock that are the subject of such Prior Awards shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with
Section 16 and to the other provisions of the Plan. 

 9. Change in Control under Prior Plans. Unless
otherwise expressly provided in the applicable award agreement, the change in control provisions under the Prior Plans shall govern the awards previously granted thereunder. 
 10. Non-United States Participants. The Committee may grant awards to persons outside the United States under such terms and conditions as may, in
the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or advisable to comply with the laws of the applicable foreign jurisdictions and, to that end, may establish sub-plans, modified option exercise procedures and other terms and procedures. Notwithstanding
the above, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act, the Code, any securities law, any governing statute, or any other applicable law. 
 11. Payment of Awards. 
  

	 	(a)	General. Payment made to a Participant pursuant to an Award may be made in the form of cash or Common Stock, or a combination thereof, and may include such restrictions as
the Committee shall determine, including, in the case of Common Stock, restrictions on transfer and forfeiture provisions. If such payment is made in the form of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall specify whether the underlying shares are to be
issued at the beginning or end of the Restriction Period. In the event that shares of Restricted Stock are to be issued at the beginning of the Restriction Period, the certificates evidencing such shares (to the extent that such shares are so
evidenced) shall contain appropriate legends and restrictions that describe the terms and conditions of the restrictions applicable thereto. In the event that shares of Restricted Stock are to be issued at the end of the Restricted Period, the right
to receive such shares shall be evidenced by book entry registration or in such other manner as the Committee may determine. 

  

	 	(b)	Deferral. With the approval of the Committee, amounts payable in respect of Awards may be deferred and paid either in the form of installments or as a lump-sum payment. The
Committee may permit selected Participants to elect to defer payments of some or all types of Awards or any other compensation otherwise payable by the Corporation in accordance with procedures established by the Committee and may provide that such
deferred compensation may be payable in shares of Common Stock. Any deferred payment pursuant to an Award, whether elected by the Participant or specified by the Award Agreement or the terms of the Award or by the Committee, may be forfeited if and
to the extent that the Award Agreement or the terms of the Award so provide. 

  

	 	(c)	Dividends, Earnings and Interest. Rights to dividends or Dividend Equivalents may be extended to and made part of any Stock Award, subject to such terms, conditions and
restrictions as the Committee may establish. The Committee may also establish rules and procedures for the crediting of interest or other earnings on deferred cash payments and Dividend Equivalents for Stock Awards. 

  

 9 









	 	(d)	Substitution of Awards. Subject to paragraphs 6(b), 14 and 16, at the discretion of the Committee, a Participant who is an Employee may be offered an election to substitute
an Employee Award for another Employee Award or Employee Awards of the same or different type. 

 12. Option
Exercise. The Grant Price shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or, if permitted by the Committee and elected by the optionee, the optionee may purchase such shares by means of tendering Common Stock or surrendering
another Award, including Restricted Stock, valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise, or any combination thereof. The Committee shall determine acceptable methods for Participants to tender Common Stock or other Awards provided that any
Common Stock that is or was the subject of an Award may be so tendered only if it has been held by the Participant for six months. The Committee may provide for procedures to permit the exercise or purchase of such Awards by use of the proceeds to
be received from the sale of Common Stock issuable pursuant to an Award. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, in the event shares of Restricted Stock are tendered as consideration for the exercise of an Option, a number of
the shares issued upon the exercise of the Option, equal to the number of shares of Restricted Stock used as consideration therefor, shall be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock so submitted as well as any additional
restrictions that may be imposed by the Committee. The Committee may adopt additional rules and procedures regarding the exercise of Options from time to time, provided that such rules and procedures are not inconsistent with the provisions of this
paragraph. 
 An optionee desiring to pay the Grant Price of an Option by tendering Common Stock using the method of attestation may, subject
to any such conditions and in compliance with any such procedures as the Committee may adopt, do so by attesting to the ownership of Common Stock of the requisite value in which case the Corporation shall issue or otherwise deliver to the optionee
upon such exercise a number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option equal to the result obtained by dividing (a) the excess of the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option for which the Option (or
portion thereof) is being exercised over the Grant Price payable in respect of such exercise by (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock subject to the Option, and the optionee may retain the shares of Common Stock the ownership of
which is attested. 
 13. Taxes. The Corporation or its designated third party administrator shall have the right to deduct
applicable taxes from any Employee Award payment and withhold, at the time of delivery or vesting of cash or shares of Common Stock under this Plan, an appropriate amount of cash or number of shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof for
payment of taxes or other amounts required by law or to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Corporation to satisfy all obligations for withholding of such taxes. The Committee may also permit withholding to be satisfied
by the transfer to the Corporation of shares of Common Stock theretofore owned by the holder of the Employee Award with respect to which withholding is required. If shares of Common Stock are used to satisfy tax withholding, such shares shall be
valued based on the Fair Market Value when the tax withholding is required to be made. The Committee may provide for loans, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by law, on either a short term or demand basis, from the Corporation to a Participant
who is an Employee to permit the payment of taxes required by law. 
 14. Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination of the
Plan. The Board may amend, modify, suspend or terminate this Plan for the purpose of meeting or addressing any changes in legal requirements or for any other purpose permitted by law, except that (i) no amendment or alteration that
would adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any Award previously granted to such Participant shall be made without the consent of such Participant and (ii) no amendment or alteration shall be effective prior to its approval by
the stockholders of the Corporation to the extent such approval is required by applicable legal requirements or the requirements of the securities exchange on which the Corporation’s Common Stock is listed. 
 15. Assignability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee and provided in the Award Agreement or the terms of the Award, no Award or
any other benefit under this Plan shall be assignable or otherwise transferable except by will, by beneficiary designation or the laws of descent and 

  

 10 








 
distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or the
rules thereunder. In the event that a beneficiary designation conflicts with an assignment by will, the beneficiary designation will prevail. The Committee may prescribe and include in applicable Award Agreements or the terms of the Award other
restrictions on transfer. Any attempted assignment of an Award or any other benefit under this Plan in violation of this paragraph 15 shall be null and void. 
 16. Adjustments. 
  

	 	(a)	The existence of outstanding Awards shall not affect in any manner the right or power of the Corporation or its stockholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the capital stock of the Corporation or its business or any merger or consolidation of the Corporation, or any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock (whether or not
such issue is prior to, on a parity with or junior to the existing Common Stock) or the dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding of
any kind, whether or not of a character similar to that of the acts or proceedings enumerated above. 

  

	 	(b)	In the event of any subdivision or consolidation of outstanding shares of Common Stock, declaration of a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or other stock split, then
(i) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan and available for issuance pursuant to specific types of Awards as described in paragraph 5, (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by outstanding Awards,
(iii) the Grant Price or other price in respect of such Awards, (iv) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards, and (v) the Stock Based Awards Limitations shall each be proportionately adjusted
by the Board as appropriate to reflect such transaction. In the event of any other recapitalization or capital reorganization of the Corporation, any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with another corporation or entity, the adoption by the
Corporation of any plan of exchange affecting Common Stock or any distribution to holders of Common Stock of securities or property (including special cash dividends but not normal cash dividends or dividends payable in Common Stock), the Board
shall make appropriate adjustments to (x) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved under this Plan and (y)(i) the number of shares of Common Stock covered by Awards, (ii) the Grant Price or other price in respect of such Awards,
(iii) the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations for such Awards, and (iv) the Stock Based Awards Limitations to reflect such transaction; provided that such adjustments shall only be such as are necessary to maintain
the proportionate interest of the holders of the Awards and preserve, without increasing, the value of such Awards. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the
Board shall be authorized (x) to assume under the Plan previously issued compensatory awards, or to substitute new Awards for previously issued compensatory awards, including Awards, as part of such adjustment; (y) to cancel Awards that
are Options or SARs and give the Participants who are the holders of such Awards notice and opportunity to exercise for 30 days prior to such cancellation; or (z) to cancel any such Awards and to deliver to the Participants cash in an amount
that the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion is equal to the fair market value of such Awards on the date of such event, which in the case of Options or SARs shall be the excess of the Fair Market Value of Common Stock on such date over
the exercise or strike price of such Award.

 17. Restrictions. No Common Stock or other form of payment shall be issued with respect to
any Award unless the Corporation shall be satisfied based on the advice of its counsel that such issuance will be in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws. Certificates evidencing shares of Common Stock delivered under this
Plan (to the extent that such shares are so evidenced) may be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, any securities exchange or transaction reporting system upon which the Common Stock is then listed or to which it is admitted for quotation and any applicable federal or state securities law. The Committee may cause a legend or legends
to be placed upon such certificates (if any) to make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 18. Unfunded Plan. This
Plan shall be unfunded. Although bookkeeping accounts may be established with respect to Participants under this Plan, any such accounts shall be used merely as a bookkeeping convenience, including bookkeeping accounts established by a third party
administrator retained by the Corporation to administer the Plan. The Corporation shall not be required to segregate any assets for purposes of this Plan or Awards hereunder, nor shall the Corporation, the Board or the Committee be deemed to be a
trustee of any benefit to be granted under this Plan. Any liability or obligation of the Corporation to any Participant with respect to an Award under this Plan shall be based solely upon any contractual obligations that may be created by this Plan
and any Award Agreement or the terms of the Award, and no such liability or obligation of the Corporation shall be deemed to be secured by any pledge or other encumbrance on any property of the Corporation. Neither the Corporation nor the Board nor
the Committee shall be required to give any security or bond for the performance of any obligation that may be created by this Plan. 
 19.
Right to Employment. Nothing in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Corporation to terminate any Participant’s employment or other service relationship at any time, nor confer
upon any Participant any right to continue in the capacity in which he or she is employed or otherwise serves the Corporation. 
 20.
Successors. All obligations of the Corporation under the Plan with respect to Awards granted hereunder shall be binding on any successor to the Corporation, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect
purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Corporation. 
 21.
Section 409A. 
  

	 	(a)	This Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A and ambiguous provisions, if any, shall be construed to provide that the Awards are compliant with or exempt from the
application of Section 409A, as appropriate. This Plan shall not be amended in a manner that would cause the Plan or any amounts payable under the Plan to fail to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, to the extent applicable, and,
further, the provisions of any purported amendment that may reasonably be expected to result in such non-compliance shall be of no force or effect with respect to the Plan. The Corporation shall neither cause nor permit any payment, benefit or
consideration to be substituted for a benefit that is payable under this Plan if such action would result in the failure of any amount that is subject to Section 409A to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A. For purposes
of Section 409A, each payment under this Plan shall be deemed to be a separate payment. 

  

	 	(b)	 Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, if the Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A as of the
date of the Participant’s termination of employment and the Corporation determines, in good faith, that immediate payment of any amounts or benefits would cause a violation of Section 409A, then any amounts or benefits which are payable
under this Plan upon the Participant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A which (i) are subject to the provisions of Section 



  

 12 









	 	 
409A; (ii) are not otherwise excluded under Section 409A; and (iii) would otherwise be payable during the first six-month period following
such separation from service, shall be paid on the first business day next following the earlier of (1) the date that is six months and one day following the date of termination or (2) the date of Participant’s death.



 22. Governing Law. This Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to the extent
not otherwise governed by mandatory provisions of the Code or the securities laws of the United States, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas. 
 23. Effectiveness and Term. This amendment and restatement of the Plan was adopted by the Board as of May 19, 2009, subject to the approval
by the shareholders (as required by applicable law and the listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange) on the Shareholder Effective Date. If the shareholders should fail to approve such amendment and restatement, then the Plan shall
continue as in effect prior to this amendment and restatement. Unless terminated earlier by the Board pursuant to Section 14, no awards may be made under the Plan after January 7, 2014.
