The purpose of this Plan is to benefit the Corporation’s stockholders by encouraging high levels of performance by individuals who

 SECTION 3.    Eligibility. 

Any one or more Awards may be granted to any Employee, or any non-Employee who provides services to or on behalf of the Corporation or any of
its Subsidiaries (including without limitation any Non-Employee Director), who is designated by the Committee to receive an Award. 
 SECTION
4.    Awards. 
 (a)    Type of Awards.  The Committee may from time to time grant any of
the following types of Awards, either singly, in tandem or in combination with other Awards: 

(1)    Nonqualified Stock Options.  A Nonqualified Stock Option is an Award in the form of an
option to purchase Stock that is not intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 422. The exercise price of each Nonqualified Stock Option granted under this Plan shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the
date that the Option is granted. 
 (2)    Incentive Stock Options.  An Incentive Stock Option
is an Award in the form of an option to purchase Stock that is intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 422 or any successor section thereof. The exercise price of each Incentive Stock Option granted under this Plan shall not be
less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the Option is granted. If a Participant on the date an Incentive Stock Option is granted owns, directly or indirectly within the meaning of Code Section 424(d), stock possessing more than
ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Corporation, the exercise price per share of the Incentive Stock Option shall not be less than one hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value
per share of the Stock at the time of grant, and such Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market
Value of Stock with respect to which one or more incentive stock options first become exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, taking into account both Stock subject to Incentive Stock Options under this Plan and stock
subject to incentive stock options under all other plans of the Corporation or of other entities referenced in Code Section 422(d)(1), the options shall be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options. For this purpose, the Fair Market Value of the
Stock subject to options shall be determined as of the date the Options were granted. 
 (3)    Stock
Appreciation Rights.  A Stock Appreciation Right is an Award in the form of a right to receive, upon surrender of the right, but without other payment, an amount based on the appreciation in the value of


  
 4 








 
the Stock or the Option over a base price established in the Award, payable in cash, Stock or such other form or combination of forms of payout, at times and upon conditions (which may include a
Change in Control), as may be approved by the Committee. The minimum base price of a Stock Appreciation Right granted under this Plan shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the underlying Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is
granted. 
 (4)    Restricted Stock.  Restricted Stock is an Award of issued shares of Stock
of the Corporation (other than Minimum Ownership Stock) that are subject to restrictions on transfer and/or such other restrictions on incidents of ownership as the Committee may determine. 

(5)    Other Share-Based Awards.  The Committee may from
time to time grant Awards under this Plan that provide the Participants with Stock or the right to purchase Stock, or provide other incentive Awards (including, but not limited to, Minimum Ownership Stock, phantom stock or units, performance stock
or units, bonus stock, dividend equivalent units, or similar securities or rights) that have a value derived from the value of, or an exercise or conversion privilege at a price related to, or that are otherwise payable in shares of Stock. The
Awards shall be in a form determined by the Committee, provided that the Awards shall not be inconsistent with the other express terms of this Plan applicable to such Awards. 

(b)    Special Performance-Based Awards.  Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, any of the type of Awards listed in Section 4(a) may be granted as awards that satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of
Code Section 162(m) (“Performance-Based Awards”), the grant, vesting, exercisability or payment of which may depend on the degree of achievement of the Performance Goals relative to
preestablished targeted levels for the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, divisions or other business units. Performance-Based Awards shall be subject to the requirements of clauses (1) through (7) below, except that notwithstanding
anything contained in this Section 4(b) to the contrary, any Option or Stock Appreciation Right intended to qualify as a Performance-Based Award shall not be subject to the requirements of clauses (2), (4), (5) and (6) below (with
such Awards hereinafter referred to as a “Qualifying Option” or a “Qualifying Stock Appreciation Right”, respectively). An Award that is intended to satisfy the requirements of this Section 4(b) shall be designated as a Performance-Based Award at the time of grant. 
 (1)    Eligible
Class.  The eligible class of persons for Awards under this Section 4(b) shall be all Employees. 

(2)    Performance Goals.  The performance goals for any Awards under this Section 4(b)
(other than Qualifying Options and Qualifying Stock 

  
 5 








 
Appreciation Rights) shall be, on an absolute or relative basis, one or more of the Performance Goals. The specific performance target(s) with respect to Performance Goal(s) must be established
by the Committee in advance of the deadlines applicable under Code Section 162(m) and while the performance relating to the Performance Goal(s) remains substantially uncertain. 

(3)    Individual Limits.  The maximum number of shares of Stock or Share Units that are
issuable under Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted during a calendar year to any Employee shall be 750,000, and the maximum number of shares of Stock or Share Units that are issuable under other Performance-Based Awards granted to any
Employee during a calendar year shall be 300,000, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 7. Awards that are cancelled during the year shall be counted against these limits to the extent required by Code Section 162(m). 

(4)    Committee Certification.  Before any
Performance-Based Award under this Section 4(b) (other than Qualifying Options and Qualifying Stock Appreciation Rights) is paid, the Committee must certify in writing (by resolution or otherwise) that
the applicable Performance Goal(s) and any other material terms of the Performance-Based Award were satisfied; provided, however, that a Performance-Based Award may be
paid without regard to the satisfaction of the applicable Performance Goal in the event of the Participant’s death or permanent disability or in the event of a Change in Control as provided in Section 7(b). 

(5)    Terms and Conditions of Awards.  Committee Discretion to Reduce Performance Awards. The
Committee shall have discretion to determine the conditions, restrictions or other limitations, in accordance with the terms of this Plan and Code Section 162(m), on the payment of individual
Performance-Based Awards under this Section 4(b). To the extent set forth in an Award Agreement, the Committee may reserve the right to reduce the amount payable in accordance with any standards or on any
other basis (including the Committee’s discretion), as the Committee may impose. 

(6)    Adjustments for Material Changes.  To the extent set forth in an Award Agreement, in the
event of (i) a change in corporate capitalization, a corporate transaction or a complete or partial corporate liquidation, or (ii) any extraordinary gain or loss or other event that is treated for accounting purposes as an extraordinary
item under generally accepted accounting principles, or (iii) any material change in accounting policies or practices affecting the Corporation and/or the Performance Goals or targets, the Committee shall make adjustments to the Performance
Goals and/or targets, applied as of the date of the event, and based solely on objective criteria, so as to neutralize, in the Committee’s judgment, the effect of the event on the applicable
Performance-Based Award. 

  
 6 








 (7)    Interpretation.  Except as specifically
provided in this Section 4(b), the provisions of this Section 4(b) shall be interpreted and administered by the Committee in a manner consistent with the requirements for exemption of
Performance-Based Awards granted to Executive Officers as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) and regulations and other
interpretations issued by the Internal Revenue Service thereunder. 
 SECTION 5.    Shares of Stock and Share Units Available Under
Plan. 
 (a)    Aggregate Limits on Shares and Share Units.  (i) Subject to Section 5(b), the
maximum number of shares of Stock that may be issued pursuant to all Awards under the Plan is 26,013,817, (ii) the maximum number of such shares of Stock that may be issued pursuant to all Awards of Incentive Stock Options is 3,000,000, and
(iii) the maximum number of shares of Stock subject to Awards granted during a calendar year to any Non-Employee Director, taken together with any cash fees paid to such Non-Employee Director during such calendar year, shall not exceed $525,000
in total value (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes and excluding, for this purpose, the value of any dividends or dividend equivalents paid in accordance with
Section 6(b)(4) on unissued shares of Stock or unpaid Share Units underlying any such Awards). 
 (b)    Share
Usage for Full Value Awards.  Solely for purposes of calculating the number of shares of Stock available for issuance pursuant to Section 5(a)(i): 

(1)    each share of Stock that may be issued pursuant to Awards granted from March 1, 2010 through
February 25, 2013 (other than Awards of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) shall be counted as 2.60 shares; 

(2)    each share of Stock that may be issued pursuant to Awards granted from February 26, 2013
through February 22, 2016 (other than Awards of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) shall be counted as 3.69 shares; and 

(3)    each share of Stock that may be issued pursuant to Awards granted on or after February 23,
2016 (other than Awards of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) shall be counted as 4.26 shares. 
 (c)    Reissue of
Shares and Share Units.  Any unexercised, unconverted or undistributed portion of any expired, cancelled, terminated or forfeited Award, or any alternative form of consideration under an Award that is not paid in connection with the
settlement of an Award or any portion of an Award, shall again be available for Awards under Sections 5(a) and (b), as applicable, whether or not the Participant has received benefits of ownership (such as dividends or dividend equivalents or voting
rights) during the period in which the Participant’s ownership 

  
 7 








 
was restricted or otherwise not vested. To the extent an Award is settled in cash in lieu of issuing shares of Stock subject thereto, such shares shall be deemed to constitute Share Units (and
not shares of Stock issued pursuant to an Award) for purposes of the limits set forth in Sections 5(a) and (b). For the avoidance of doubt, the following shares of Stock shall not become available for reissuance under the Plan: (1) shares
tendered by Participants as full or partial payment to the Corporation upon exercise of Options or other Awards granted under the Plan; (2) shares of Stock reserved for issuance upon the grant of Stock Appreciation Rights, to the extent the
number of reserved shares exceeds the number of shares actually issued upon exercise of the Stock Appreciation Rights; (3) shares withheld by, or otherwise remitted to, the Corporation to satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligations
upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock or the exercise of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights or upon any other payment or issuance of shares under any other Award granted under the Plan; and (4) shares of Stock that are acquired
by the Corporation as contemplated by Section 5(e) in connection with this Plan or the satisfaction of an Award issued hereunder. 

(d)    Interpretive Issues.  Additional rules for determining the number of shares of Stock or Share Units
authorized under this Plan may be adopted by the Committee, as it deems necessary or appropriate. 
 (e)    Treasury
Shares; No Fractional Shares.  The Stock which may be issued (which term includes Stock reissued or otherwise delivered) pursuant to an Award under this Plan may be treasury or authorized but unissued Stock or Stock acquired, subsequently
or in anticipation of a transaction under this Plan, in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions to satisfy the requirements of this Plan. No fractional shares shall be issued but fractional interests may be accumulated. 

(f)    Consideration.  The Stock issued under this Plan may be issued (subject to Section 10(d)) for any
lawful form of consideration, the value of which equals the par value of the Stock or such greater or lesser value as the Committee, consistent with Sections 10(d) and 4(a)(1), (2) and (3), may require. 

(g)    Purchase or Exercise Price; Withholding.  The exercise or purchase price (if any) of the Stock issuable
pursuant to any Award and any withholding obligation under applicable tax laws shall be paid at or prior to the time of the delivery of such Stock in cash or, subject to the Committee’s express authorization and the restrictions, conditions and
procedures as the Committee may impose, any one or combination of (i) cash, (ii) the delivery of shares of Stock, or (iii) a reduction in the amount of Stock or other amounts otherwise issuable or payable pursuant to such Award. In
the case of a payment by the means described in clause (ii) or (iii) above, the amount of Stock to be so delivered or offset in respect of such exercise price or purchase price (if any), or withholding obligations, shall be determined by
reference to the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date as of which the payment or offset is made. 

  
 8 








 (h)    Cashless Exercise.  The Committee may also permit the
exercise of the Award and payment of any applicable withholding tax in respect of an Award by delivery of written notice, subject to the Corporation’s receipt of a third party payment in full in cash (or in such other form as permitted under
Section 5(g)) for the exercise price and the applicable withholding at or prior to the time of issuance of Stock, in the manner and subject to the procedures as may be established by the Committee. 

SECTION 6.    Award Agreements. 

Each Award under this Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in a form approved by the Committee setting forth the number of shares of
Stock or Share Units, as applicable, subject to the Award, and the price (if any) and term of the Award and, in the case of Performance-Based Awards, the applicable Performance Goals, if any. The Award
Agreement shall also set forth (or incorporate by reference) other material terms and conditions applicable to the Award as determined by the Committee consistent with the limitations of this Plan. 

(a) Incorporated Provisions. Award Agreements shall be subject to the terms of this Plan and shall be deemed to include the following terms:

 (1)    Transferability:  An Award shall not be assignable nor transferable, except by will
or by the laws of descent and distribution, and during the lifetime of a Participant the Award shall be exercised only by such Participant or by his or her guardian or legal representative. The designation of a Beneficiary hereunder shall not
constitute a transfer prohibited by the foregoing provisions. 
 (2)    Rights as
Stockholder:  A Participant shall have no rights as a holder of Stock with respect to any unissued securities covered by an Award until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record of these securities. Except as provided in
Section 7, no adjustment or other provision shall be made for dividends or other stockholder rights, except to the extent that the Award Agreement provides for dividend equivalents or similar economic benefits. 

(3)    Withholding:  The Participant shall be responsible for payment of any taxes or similar
charges required by law to be withheld from an Award or an amount paid in satisfaction of an Award and these obligations shall be paid by the Participant on or prior to the payment of the Award. In the case of an Award payable in cash, the
withholding obligation shall be satisfied by withholding the applicable amount and paying the net amount in cash to the Participant. In the case of an Award paid in shares of Stock, a Participant shall satisfy the withholding obligation as provided
in Section 5(g) or Section 5(h). 

  
 9 








 (4)    Maximum Term of Awards.  No Nonqualified
Stock Option, Incentive Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised or converted to any extent, or remain outstanding and unexercised, unconverted or unvested, more than ten years after the date such Nonqualified Stock Option,
Incentive Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right was initially granted. 
 (b)    Other Provisions.  Award
Agreements may include other terms and conditions as the Committee shall approve, including but not limited to the following: 

(1)    Termination of Employment:  A provision describing the treatment of an Award in the event
of the retirement, disability, death or other termination of a Participant’s employment with or services to the Company, including any provisions relating to the vesting, exercisability, forfeiture or cancellation of the Award in these
circumstances, subject, in the case of Performance-Based Awards, to the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m). 

(2)    Vesting; Effect of Termination; Change in Control:  Any other terms consistent with the
terms of this Plan as are necessary and appropriate to effect the Award to the Participant, including but not limited to the vesting provisions, any requirements for continued employment, any other restrictions or conditions (including performance
requirements) of the Award, and the method by which (consistent with Section 7) the restrictions or conditions lapse, and the effect on the Award of a Change in Control. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in the applicable Award
Agreement, (1) the minimum vesting period for Awards of Restricted Stock shall be three years from the date of grant (or one year in the case of Restricted Stock Awards that are Performance-Based Awards) and (2) the vesting period of an
Award of Restricted Stock may not be accelerated to a date that is within such minimum vesting period except in the event of the Participant’s death, permanent disability or retirement or in the event of a Change in Control. 

(3)    Replacement and Substitution:  Any provisions permitting or requiring the surrender of
outstanding Awards or securities held by the Participant in whole or in part in order to exercise or realize rights under or as a condition precedent to other Awards, or in exchange for the grant of new or amended Awards under similar or different
terms; provided, that except in connection with an adjustment contemplated by Section 7, no such provisions of an Award Agreement shall permit a “Repricing” as defined in Section 8(d). 

  
 10 








 (4)    Dividends:  Any provisions providing for the
payment of dividend equivalents on unissued shares of Stock or unpaid Share Units underlying an Award, on either a current or deferred or contingent basis, and either in cash or in additional shares of Stock; provided that dividend equivalents may
not be paid with respect to Awards of Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. 
 (c)    Contract Rights, Forms and
Signatures.  Any obligation of the Corporation to any Participant with respect to an Award shall be based solely upon contractual obligations created by this Plan and an Award Agreement. No Award shall be enforceable until the Award
Agreement has been signed on behalf of the Corporation by an Executive Officer (other than the recipient) or his or her delegate. By accepting receipt of the Award Agreement, a Participant shall be deemed to have accepted and consented to the terms
of this Plan and any action taken in good faith under this Plan by and within the discretion of the Committee, the Board of Directors or their delegates. Unless the Award Agreement otherwise expressly provides, there shall be no third party
beneficiaries of the obligations of the Corporation to the Participant under the Award Agreement. 
 SECTION 7.    Adjustments; Change
in Control; Acquisitions. 
 (a)    Adjustments.  If there shall occur any recapitalization, stock split
(including a stock split in the form of a stock dividend), reverse stock split, merger, combination, consolidation, or other reorganization or any extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution in respect of the Stock (whether in the
form of cash, Stock or other property), or any split-up, spin-off, extraordinary redemption, or exchange of outstanding Stock, or there shall occur any other similar
corporate transaction or event in respect of the Stock, or a sale of substantially all the assets of the Corporation as an entirety, then the Committee shall, in the manner and to the extent, if any, as it deems appropriate and equitable to the
Participants and consistent with the terms of this Plan, and taking into consideration the effect of the event on the holders of the Stock: 

(1)    proportionately adjust any or all of: 

(A)    the number and type of shares of Stock and Share Units which thereafter may be made the subject of
Awards (including the specific maxima and numbers of shares of Stock or Share Units set forth elsewhere in this Plan), 

(B)    the number and type of shares of Stock, other property, Share Units or cash subject to any or all
outstanding Awards, 
 (C)    the grant, purchase or exercise price, or conversion ratio of any or all
outstanding Awards, or of the Stock, other property or Share Units underlying the Awards, 

  
 11 








 (D)    the securities, cash or other property deliverable
upon exercise or conversion of any or all outstanding Awards, 
 (E)    subject to Section 4(b),
the performance targets or standards appropriate to any outstanding Performance-Based Awards, or 

(F)    any other terms as are affected by the event; and/or 

(2)    provide for: 

(A)    an appropriate and proportionate cash settlement or distribution, or 

(B)    the substitution or exchange of any or all outstanding Awards, or the cash, securities or property
deliverable on exercise, conversion or vesting of the Awards. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, no
adjustment shall be made which would cause this Plan to violate Section 424(a) of the Code or any successor provisions thereto, without the written consent of the Participant adversely affected thereby. The Committee shall act prior to an event
described in this paragraph (a) (including at the time of an Award by means of more specific provisions in the Award Agreement) if deemed necessary or appropriate to permit the Participant to realize the benefits intended to be conveyed by an
Award in respect of the Stock in the case of an event described in paragraph (a). 
 (b)    Change in
Control.  The Committee may, in the Award Agreement, provide for the effect of a Change in Control on an Award. Such provisions may include, but are not limited to any one or more of the following with respect to any or all Awards:
(i) the specific consequences of a Change in Control on the Awards; (ii) a reservation of the Committee’s right to determine in its discretion at any time that there shall be full acceleration or no acceleration of benefits under the
Awards; (iii) that only certain or limited benefits under the Awards shall be accelerated; (iv) that the Awards shall be accelerated for a limited time only; or (v) that acceleration of the Awards shall be subject to additional
conditions precedent (such as a termination of employment following a Change in Control). 
 In addition to any action required or
authorized by the terms of an Award, the Committee may take any other action it deems appropriate to ensure the equitable treatment of Participants in the event of a Change in Control, including but not limited to any one or more of the following
with respect to any or all Awards: (i) the acceleration or extension of time periods for purposes of exercising, vesting in, or realizing gain from, the Awards; (ii) the waiver of conditions on the Awards that were imposed for the benefit
of the Corporation, (iii) provision for the cash settlement of the Awards for their equivalent cash value, as determined by the 

  
 12 








 
Committee, as of the date of the Change in Control; or (iv) such other modification or adjustment to the Awards as the Committee deems appropriate to maintain and protect the rights and
interests of Participants upon or following the Change in Control. The Committee also may accord any Participant a right to refuse any acceleration of exercisability, vesting or benefits, whether pursuant to the Award Agreement or otherwise, in such
circumstances as the Committee may approve. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(b) or any provision in an
Award Agreement to the contrary, if any Award to any Insider is accelerated to a date that is less than six months after the date of the Award, the Committee may prohibit a sale of the underlying Stock (other than a sale by operation or law in
exchange for or through conversion into other securities), and the Corporation may impose legend and other restrictions on the Stock to enforce this prohibition. 

(c)    Change in Control Definition.  For purposes of this Plan, with respect to any Award other than an Award
issued pursuant to an Award Agreement that separately defines the term “change in control,” a change in control shall include and be deemed to occur upon the following events: 

(1)    The acquisition by any person or group (including a group within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act), other than the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of a majority of the combined voting power of the
Corporation’s then outstanding voting securities, other than by any employee benefit plan maintained by the Corporation; 

(2)    The sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation or of L-3 Communications
Corporation or any successor thereto; 
 (3)    The consummation of a merger, combination,
consolidation, recapitalization, or other reorganization of the Corporation with one or more other entities that are not Subsidiaries if, as a result of the consummation of the merger, combination, consolidation, recapitalization or other
reorganization, less than 50 percent of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving or resulting corporation shall immediately after the event be beneficially owned in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Corporation immediately prior to
the event; 
 (4)    The election, including the filling of vacancies, during any period of 24 months or
less, of 50 percent or more, of the members of the Board, without the approval of Continuing Directors, as constituted at the beginning of such period. “Continuing Directors” shall mean any director of the Company who either (i) is a
member of the Board on the date of grant of the relevant Award, or (ii) is nominated for election to the Board by a majority of the Board which is comprised of Directors who were, at the time of such nomination, Continuing Directors; or

 (5)    In the Committee’s sole discretion on a
case-by-case basis and solely with respect to Awards granted to Employees of a Subsidiary of the Corporation, or of a business unit or division of the Corporation or such Subsidiary, (i) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
such Subsidiary, business unit or division or (ii) the sale (including without limitation by way of merger) of a majority of the combined voting power of such Subsidiary’s then outstanding voting securities. 

(d)    Business Acquisitions.  Awards may be granted under this Plan on the terms and conditions as the
Committee considers appropriate, which may differ from those otherwise required by this Plan to the extent necessary to reflect a substitution for or assumption of stock incentive awards held by employees of other entities who become employees of
the Corporation or a Subsidiary as the result of a merger of the employing entity with, or the acquisition of the property or stock of the employing entity by, the Corporation or a Subsidiary, directly or indirectly (such awards, “Substitute
Awards”). Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the limitations set forth in Section 5(a), provided that Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or in substitution for, Incentive Stock Options shall be
counted against the limits set forth in Section 5(a)(ii) of the Plan. 
 SECTION 8.    Administration. 

(a)    Committee Authority and Structure.  This Plan and all Awards granted under this Plan shall be
administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board or such other committee of the Board (or the full Board) or subcommittee of the Compensation Committee as may be designated by the Board (such committee, subcommittee or the full Board, as
applicable, the “Committee”). With respect to Awards granted to persons who are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, the Committee shall be constituted so as to permit this Plan to comply with
the disinterested administration requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, and with respect to Awards granted to persons who are “covered employees” as defined in Code Section 162(m),
the Committee shall be constituted such that the “outside director” requirement of Code Section 162(m) is met. The members of the Committee shall be designated by the Board. A majority of the members of the Committee (but not fewer
than two) shall constitute a quorum. The vote of a majority of a quorum or the unanimous written consent of the Committee shall constitute action by the Committee. 

(b)    Selection and Grant.  The Committee shall have the authority to determine the individuals (if any) to
whom Awards will be granted under this Plan, the type of Award or Awards to be made, and the nature, amount, pricing, timing, and other terms of Awards to be made to any one or more of these individuals, subject to the terms of this Plan.

 (c)    Construction and Interpretation.  The Committee shall have
the power to interpret and administer this Plan and Award Agreements, and to adopt, amend and rescind related rules and procedures. All questions of interpretation and determinations with respect to this Plan, the number of shares of Stock, Stock
Appreciation Rights, or units or other Awards granted, and the terms of any Award Agreements, the adjustments required or permitted by Section 7, and other determinations hereunder shall be made by the Committee and its determination shall be
final and conclusive upon all parties in interest. In the event of any conflict between an Award Agreement and any non-discretionary provisions of this Plan, the terms of this Plan shall govern. 

(d)    Express Authority to Change Terms of Awards.  The Committee may, at any time, alter or amend any or all
Award Agreements under this Plan in any manner that would be authorized for a new Award under this Plan, including but not limited to any manner set forth in Section 9 (subject to any applicable limitations thereunder), except that no amendment
or cancellation of an Award may effect a Repricing of such Award without shareholder approval, except in connection with an adjustment pursuant to Section 7. A “Repricing” means any of the following: (i) changing the terms of an
Award to lower its exercise price or base price, (ii) cancelling an Award with an exercise price or base price in exchange for other Awards with a lower exercise price or base price, or (iii) cancelling an Award with an exercise price or
base price at a time when such price is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value of the underlying Stock in exchange for other Awards, cash or property. Without limiting the Committee’s authority under this plan (including Sections 7 and
9), but subject to any express limitations of this Plan (including the prohibitions on Repricing set forth in this Section 8(d)), the Committee shall have the authority to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of an Award, to extend the term
or waive early termination provisions of an Award (subject to the maximum ten-year term under Section 6(a)(4) to the extent applicable), and to waive the Corporation’s rights with respect to an Award or restrictive conditions of an Award
(including forfeiture conditions), in any case in such circumstances as the Committee deems appropriate. 
 (e)    Rule 16b-3 Conditions; Bifurcation of Plan.  It is the intent of the Corporation that this Plan and Awards hereunder satisfy and be interpreted in a manner, that, in the case of Participants who are or may be
Insiders, satisfies any applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3, so that these persons will be entitled to the benefits of Rule 16b-3 or other exemptive rules under
Section 16 under the Exchange Act and will not be subjected to avoidable liability thereunder as to Awards intended to be entitled to the benefits of Rule 16b-3. If any provision of this Plan or of any
Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with the intent expressed in this Section 8(e), that provision to the extent possible shall be interpreted and 

  
 15 








 
deemed amended so as to avoid such conflict. To the extent of any remaining irreconcilable conflict with this intent, the provision shall be deemed disregarded as to Awards intended as Rule 16b-3 exempt Awards. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the provisions of this Plan may at any time be bifurcated by the Board or the Committee in any manner so that certain provisions of this
Plan or any Award Agreement intended (or required in order) to satisfy the applicable requirements of Rule 16b-3 are only applicable to Insiders and to those Awards to Insiders intended to satisfy the
requirements of Rule 16b-3. 
 (f)    Delegation and Reliance.  The
Committee may delegate to the officers or employees of the Corporation the authority to execute and deliver those instruments and documents, to do all acts and things, and to take all other steps deemed necessary, advisable or convenient for the
effective administration of this Plan in accordance with its terms and purpose, except that the Committee may not delegate any discretionary authority to grant or amend an award or with respect to substantive decisions or functions regarding this
Plan or Awards as these relate to the material terms of Performance-Based Awards to Executive Officers or to the timing, eligibility, pricing, amount or other material terms of Awards to Insiders. In making
any determination or in taking or not taking any action under this Plan, the Board and the Committee may obtain and may rely upon the advice of experts, including professional advisors to the Corporation. No director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation shall be liable for any such action or determination taken or made or omitted in good faith. 

(g)    Exculpation and Indemnity.  Neither the Corporation nor any member of the Board of Directors or of the
Committee, nor any other person participating in any determination of any question under this Plan, or in the interpretation, administration or application of this Plan, shall have any liability to any party for any action taken or not taken in good
faith under this Plan or for the failure of an Award (or action in respect of an Award) to satisfy Code requirements as to incentive stock options or to realize other intended tax consequences (including any intended tax treatment under
Section 409A of the Code), to qualify for exemption or relief under Rule 16b-3 or to comply with any other law, compliance with which is not required on the part of the Corporation. 

SECTION 9.    Amendment and Termination of this Plan. 

The Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or discontinue this Plan, subject to any stockholder approval that may be required under
applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such action shall, in any manner adverse to a Participant other than as expressly permitted by the terms of an Award Agreement, affect any Award then outstanding and evidenced by an Award Agreement
without the consent in writing of the Participant or his or her Beneficiary, guardian or legal representative, to the extent applicable. Notwithstanding the above, any amendment to this Plan that would (i) materially


  
 16 








 
increase the benefits accruing to any Participant or Participants hereunder, (ii) materially increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock, Share Units or other equity interest(s) that
may be issued hereunder, or (iii) materially modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in this Plan, shall be subject to shareholder approval. 

SECTION 10.    Miscellaneous. 

(a)    Unfunded Plans.  This Plan shall be unfunded. Neither the Corporation nor the Board of Directors nor the
Committee shall be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards made pursuant to this Plan. Neither the Corporation, the Committee, nor the Board of Directors shall be deemed to be a trustee of any amounts to be
paid or securities to be issued under this Plan. 
 (b)    Rights of Employees. 

(1)    No Right to an Award.  Status as an Employee shall not be construed as a commitment that
any one or more Awards will be made under this Plan to an Employee or to Employees generally. Status as a Participant shall not entitle the Participant to any additional Award. 

(2)    No Assurance of Employment.  Nothing contained in this Plan (or in any other documents
related to this Plan or to any Award) shall confer upon any Employee or Participant any right to continue in the employ or other service of the Corporation or any Subsidiary or constitute any contract (of employment or otherwise) or limit in any way
the right of the Corporation or any Subsidiary to change a person’s compensation or other benefits or to terminate the employment or services of a person with or without cause. 

(c)    Effective Date; Duration.  This Plan has been adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. This
Plan shall become effective upon and shall be subject to the approval of the stockholders the Corporation. This Plan shall remain in effect until any and all Awards under this Plan have been exercised, converted or terminated under the terms of this
Plan and applicable Award Agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Award may be granted under this Plan after March 1, 2026; provided, however, that any Award granted prior to such date may be amended after such date in any manner that
would have been permitted hereunder prior to such date. 
 (d)    Compliance with Laws.  This Plan, Award
Agreements, and the grant, exercise, conversion, operation and vesting of Awards, and the issuance and delivery of shares of Stock and/or other securities or property or the payment of cash under this Plan, Awards or Award Agreements, are subject to
compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to state and federal insider trading, registration, reporting and other 

  
 17 








 
securities laws and federal margin requirements) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may be necessary or, in the opinion of counsel for the Corporation,
advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under this Plan shall be subject to such restrictions (and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Corporation, provide such evidence, assurance and representations
to the Corporation as to compliance with any of such restrictions) as the Corporation may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements. 

(e)    Section 409A.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or any Award Agreements thereunder,
it is intended that the provisions of the Plan and such Award Agreements comply with Section 409A of the Code, and that no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan, or any Award Agreement
interpreted, in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a Participant. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Board or Committee that, as a result of Section 409A
of the Code, payments in respect of any Award under the Plan may not be made at the time contemplated by the terms of the Plan or the relevant Award agreement, as the case may be, without causing the Participant holding such Award to be subject to
taxation under Section 409A of the Code, the Company will make such payment on the first day that would not result in the Participant incurring any tax liability under Section 409A of the Code; which, if the Participant is a
“specified employee” within the meaning of the Section 409A, shall be the first day following the six-month period beginning on the date of Participant’s termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Participant
is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on him or her, or in respect of any payment or benefit delivered in connection with the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under
Section 409A of the Code), and the Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Participant harmless from any or all such taxes or penalties. 

(f)    Applicable Law.  This Plan, Award Agreements and any related documents and matters shall be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York and applicable Federal law. 

(g)    Non-Exclusivity of Plan.  Nothing in this Plan shall limit or be
deemed to limit the authority of the Corporation, the Board or the Committee to grant awards or authorize any other compensation, with or without reference to the Stock, under any other plan or authority.
