period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); furthermore, in the event of involuntary termination of employment, your right to vest in the Award after termination of employment, if any, will be measured by the date of

Plan. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in the Plan and have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

2022 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN 

 

 FORM OF OUTSIDE DIRECTOR
NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT 
  

			
		
	Non-Qualified Stock Option	  	This option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code and will be interpreted accordingly.
		
	Vesting	  	This option is fully vested as to 100% of the total number of shares covered by the option on the Grant Date, as shown on the cover sheet.
		
	Term	  	Your option will expire in any event at the close of business at Company headquarters on the day before the 7th anniversary of the Grant Date, as shown on the cover sheet (the
“Expiration Date”). Your option will remain exercisable until the Expiration Date, and thereafter shall be null and void and no longer exercisable.
		
	Manner of Exercise	  	 When you wish to exercise this option, in whole or in part after vesting, you must notify the Company as set forth in the Plan.

 
 When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include payment of the Option Price
for the shares of Stock you are purchasing. Payment may be made in one (or a combination) of the following forms:
  

•  Cash, your personal check, a cashier’s check, a money order or another cash equivalent
acceptable to the Company.
  

•  Shares of Stock which have already been owned by you, including but not limited to shares which
would otherwise be delivered on settlement of the option subject to this Agreement, and which are surrendered to the Company. The value of the shares of Stock, determined as of the effective date of the option exercise, will be applied to the Option
Price.
  
 •  By delivery (on a
form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell Stock and to deliver all or part of the sale proceeds to the Company in payment of the aggregate Option Price and any
withholding taxes (if approved in advance by the Committee if you are either an executive officer or a director of the Company).

		
	Withholding Taxes	  	You will not be allowed to exercise this option unless you make acceptable arrangements to pay any withholding or other taxes that may be due as a result of the option exercise or sale of Stock acquired under this option. In the
event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local, or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the exercise or sale of shares arising from this grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from
you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company or any Affiliate.
		
	Transfer of Option	  	 During your lifetime, only you (or, in the event of your legal incapacity or incompetency, your guardian or legal representative) may
exercise the option. You cannot transfer or assign this option. For instance, you may not sell this option or use it as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this option will immediately become invalid. You may, however,
dispose of this option in your will or it may be transferred upon your death by the laws of descent and distribution.
  

In connection with any marital property settlement agreement, the Company is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your spouse, nor is the Company
obligated to recognize your spouse’s interest in your option purporting to arise under such an agreement.

		
	Retention Rights	  	Neither your option nor this Agreement gives you the right to be retained by the Company (or any Affiliates) in any capacity. The Company (and any Affiliates) reserves the right to terminate your Service at any time and for any
reason.
