 ARTICLE I 
 ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSE 
 1.1 Establishment. 
 The MasterCard Incorporated 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan (“Plan”) is hereby established by MasterCard Incorporated (the “Company”),
effective as of the Effective Date. The Plan, as amended and restated to increase the number of shares that may be issued under the Plan and to extend the term of the Plan, and to make other clarifying changes, was approved by the Company’s
Board on April 5, 2007, effective upon approval of the amended and restated plan by shareholders. The Plan amendments approved by the Committee, October 13, 2008, are applicable for all grants outstanding under the Plan as of Committee
approval, as well as future grants. 
 1.2 Purposes. 
 The purpose of the Plan is to foster and promote the long-term financial success of the Company and materially increase shareholder value by motivating performance through incentive compensation. The Plan also is
intended to encourage Participant ownership in the Company, attract and retain talent, and enable Participants to participate in the long-term growth and financial success of the Company. The Plan and the grant of Awards thereunder are expressly
conditioned upon the Plan’s approval by the shareholders of the Company. 
 ARTICLE II 
 DEFINITIONS 
 For purposes of the
Plan, the following terms are defined as set forth below: 
 2.1 “Affiliated Employer” means all persons with whom the Company would be considered
a single employer under Section 414(b) or Section 414(c) of the Code, except that, for purposes of determining whether there is a controlled group or common control the language “at least 50 percent” is used instead of “at
least 80 percent.” 
 2.2 “Agreement” means any agreement entered into pursuant to the Plan by which an Award is granted to a Participant.

 2.3 “Award” means any Stock Option, Stock Appreciation Right, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Unit, Performance Unit, or Other Stock-Based
Award granted to a Participant under the Plan. Awards shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and shall be evidenced by an Agreement containing such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan,
as the Committee shall deem desirable. 







 2.4 “Beneficiary” means any person or other entity, which has been designated by a Participant in his or her
most recent written beneficiary designation filed with the Committee to receive the compensation, specified under the Plan to the extent permitted. If there is no designated beneficiary, then the term means any person or other entity entitled by
will or the laws of descent and distribution to receive such compensation.

Directors of the Company. 
 2.6 “Cause” means (i) the willful failure by the Participant to perform his duties or responsibilities (other

Participant’s having been convicted of, or entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a crime that constitutes a felony, or a crime that constitutes a misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, (iv) the material breach by the
Participant of any written covenant or agreement with the Company or an Affiliated Employer not to disclose any information pertaining to the Company and/or its Affiliated Employers, or (v) the breach by the Participant of the Company’s
Code of Conduct, or any material provision of the following Company policies: non-discrimination, substance abuse, workplace violence, nepotism, travel and entertainment, corporation information security, antitrust/competition law, anti-corruption,
enterprise risk management, accounting, contracts, purchasing, communications, investor relations, immigration, privacy, insider trading, and similar policies, whether currently in effect or later adopted. 
 2.7 “Change in Control” means the occurrence of any of the following events, but shall specifically exclude a Public Offering:

generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”), provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (i) the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (A) any
acquisition by the Company, (B) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company, and (C) an acquisition pursuant to a transaction which
complies with clauses (A), (B), and (C) of subsection (iii); or 
 (ii) A change in the composition of the Board as of the Effective
Date (the “Incumbent Board”) that causes less than a majority of the directors of the Company then in office to be members of the Incumbent Board, provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the Effective Date,
whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the
Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or

threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on
behalf of a person other than the Board; or 
 (iii) Consummation of a reorganization, merger, or consolidation or sale or other disposition
of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the purchase of assets or stock of another entity (“A Business Combination”), in each case, unless immediately following such Business Combination, (A) all or substantially
all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination will beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50 percent of the then
outstanding combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (or equivalent governing body, if applicable) of the entity resulting from such Business Combination (including,
without limitation, an entity which as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all of substantially all of the Company’s assets directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership,
immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities, (B) no person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such entity resulting from such Business Combination) will
beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such entity except to the extent that such ownership of the Company existed prior to the Business Combination,

complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 
 In the case of an Award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code and is payable upon a Change
in Control, or at a different time or in a different form upon Termination of Employment in connection with a Change in Control, then upon Termination of Employment not in connection with a Change in Control, or where a Section 409A definition

Plan and any instrument or agreement under the Plan, and undertake such actions and make such determinations and decisions as it deems necessary and advisable to administer the Plan intent. 
 The Committee shall have discretionary authority to adopt, alter and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices governing the Plan as it
shall, from time to time, deem advisable, to interpret the terms and provisions of the Plan and any Award issued under the Plan (and any Agreement) and to otherwise supervise the administration of the Plan. The Committee’s policies and

 ARTICLE IV 
 SHARES SUBJECT TO PLAN 
 4.1 Number of Shares. 
 Subject to the adjustment under Section 4.6, the total number of newly issued Common Shares reserved and available for distribution pursuant to
Awards under the Plan shall be 11,550,000 Class A Common Shares. Such shares may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or shares acquired from a third party. 
 4.2 Release of Shares. 
 Subject to Section 4.1,
the Committee shall have full authority to determine the number of Common Shares available for Awards. In its discretion the Committee may include (without limitation), as available for distribution, (a) Common Shares subject to any Award that
have been previously forfeited; (b) Common Shares under an Award that otherwise terminates, expires, or lapses without issuance of Common Shares being made to a Participant; (c) Common Shares subject to any award that settles in cash, or
(d) Common Shares that are received, retained, or not issued by the Company in connection with the exercise of an Award, including the satisfaction of any tax liability or tax withholding obligation. Any Common Shares that are available
immediately prior to the termination of the Plan, or any Common Shares returned to the Company for any reason subsequent to the termination of the Plan, may be transferred to a successor plan. 
 4.3 Restrictions on Shares. 
 Common Shares issued
upon exercise or settlement of an Award shall be subject to the terms and conditions specified herein and to such other terms, conditions and restrictions as the Committee in its discretion may determine or provide in the Award Agreement. The
Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for Common Shares, cash or other property prior to (i) the completion of any registration or qualification of such shares under federal, state or other law, or any ruling or
regulation of any government body which the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable; and (ii) the satisfaction of any applicable withholding obligation in order for the Company or an Affiliated Employer to obtain a deduction or
discharge its legal obligation with respect to the Award. The Company may cause any certificate (or other representation of title) for any Common Shares to be delivered to be properly marked with a legend or other notation reflecting the limitations
on transfer of such Common Shares as provided in this Plan or as the Committee may otherwise require. The Committee may require any person exercising or vesting in an Award to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider
appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the Common Shares in compliance with applicable law or otherwise. Fractional shares shall not be delivered, but shall be rounded to the next lower whole number of shares. 
  

 - 9 - 








 4.4 ISO Restriction. 
 Solely for purposes of determining whether shares are available for the issuance of ISOs, and notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued through
ISOs under this Plan shall be 500,000. The terms of Section 4.2 shall apply equally for purposes of the number of shares available under this Section 4.4 for issuance through ISOs, except that shares subject to ISOs that settle in cash
shall not be available for distribution through issuance of ISOs. 
 4.5 Shareholder Rights. 
 Other than voting rights, no person shall have any rights of a shareholder as to Common Shares subject to an Award until, after proper transfer of the
Common Shares subject to the Award or other action required, such shares shall have been recorded on the Company’s official shareholder records as having been issued and transferred. Upon grant of Restricted Stock, or exercise of an Option or a
SAR, or payment of any other Award or any portion thereof, the Company will have a reasonable period in which to issue and transfer the shares, and the Participant will not be treated as a shareholder for any purpose whatsoever prior to such
issuance and transfer, except as provided in Section 8.4(3). No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such shares are recorded as issued and transferred in the Company’s
official shareholder records, except as provided herein or in an Agreement. 
 4.6 Adjustment Provision. 
 (1) Adjustment. In the event of any Company share dividend, share split, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization or other change in the
capital structure of the Company, corporate separation or division of the Company (including, but not limited to, a split-up, spin-off, split-off or distribution to Company stockholders other than a normal cash dividend), reorganization, rights
offering, a partial or complete liquidation, or any other corporate transaction, Company securities offering or event involving the Company and having an effect similar to any of the foregoing, then the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments
or substitutions as described below in this Section. The adjustments or substitutions may relate to the number of Common Shares available for Awards under the Plan, the number of Common Shares covered by outstanding Awards, the exercise price per
share of outstanding Awards, and any other characteristics or terms of the Awards as the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate to reflect equitably the effects of such changes to the Participants. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fractional
shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated by rounding to the next lower whole number of shares with appropriate payment for such fractional share as shall reasonably be determined by the Committee. 
  

 - 10 - 








 (2) Section 409A. Any adjustments or substitutions made pursuant to Section 4.6(1) to
Awards that are considered “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Section 409A. Any adjustments or substitutions made pursuant to
Section 4.6(1) to Awards that are not considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in such manner as to ensure that after such adjustment or substitution, the Awards either continue not to
be subject to Section 409A of the Code or comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. 
 ARTICLE V 

ELIGIBILITY 
 5.1 Eligibility. 

Any employee of the Company or an Affiliated Employer, and any individual covered by Section 15.13, shall be eligible to be designated, in the
discretion of the Committee, a Participant of this Plan, provided such eligibility would not jeopardize this Plan’s compliance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act or any successor rule. The Committee may require that, in order to be eligible
to be designated a Participant, an employee must execute, in a form prescribed by the Company, a non-competition and/or non-solicitation agreement. Only an employee of the Company, or any parent corporation or subsidiary of the Company (as such
terms are defined in Section 424 of the Code) on the Grant Date shall be eligible to be granted an Incentive Stock Option. 
 ARTICLE
VI 
 STOCK OPTIONS 
 6.1
General. 
 The Committee shall have authority to grant Options under the Plan at any time or from time to time. An Option shall
entitle the Participant to receive Common Shares upon exercise of such Option, subject to the Participant’s satisfaction in full of any conditions, restrictions or limitations imposed in accordance with the Plan or an Agreement (the terms and
provisions of which may differ from other Agreements) including, without limitation, payment of the Option Price. The Committee may provide for grant or vesting of Options conditioned upon the performance of services, the achievement of performance
goals pursuant to Section 15.6, or the execution of, and/or compliance with, a non-competition or non-solicitation agreement, or any combination of the above. Options may be granted alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan.

 6.2 Grant. 
 The grant of an Option
shall occur as of the Grant Date determined by the Committee provided that the Grant Date shall not be earlier than the date of the resolution and action thereon by the Committee. An Award of Options shall be evidenced by, and 

  

 - 11 - 








 
subject to the terms of, an Agreement. To the extent that any Option is not designated as an Incentive Stock Option or is so designated, but does not qualify
as an Incentive Stock Option, it shall constitute a Non-Qualified Stock Option. 
 6.3 Required Terms and Conditions. 
 Options shall be subject to the following terms and conditions and to such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the
Plan, as the Committee shall deem desirable: 
 (1) Exercise Price. The Exercise Price per share for an Award shall not be less than
the Fair Market Value per share as of the Grant Date. If an Option which is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option is granted to an individual (a “10% Owner”) who owns or who is deemed to own shares possessing more than ten
percent (10%) of the combined voting power of all classes of shares of the Company, a corporation which is a parent corporation of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company (each as defined in Section 424 of the Code), the Exercise
Price per share shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of such Fair Market Value per share as of the Grant Date. 
 (2)
Option Period. The Option Period fixed by the Committee for any Award shall be no longer than ten (10) years from the Option’s Grant Date. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a 10% Owner, the Option Period shall not
exceed five (5) years. No Option which is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be granted more than ten (10) years from the date the Plan is adopted by the Company or the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the
Company, whichever is earlier. 
 (3) Exercisability. In no event shall an Option be exercisable earlier than six (6) months
after the Grant Date (except in the case of the Participant’s death or in the case of an Option granted in lieu of or replacement of compensation that is subject to vesting restrictions, in which case the Option may be exercisable pursuant to
the same vesting restrictions as was the compensation) or later than ten (10) years from the Grant Date. The Committee may provide in an Option Agreement or thereafter for an accelerated exercise of all or part of an Option upon such events or
standards that it may determine, including one or more performance measures. If the Committee intends that an Option be able to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the Option’s Grant Date) of the
Common Shares as to which such Incentive Stock Option is exercisable for the first time during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. 
 (4) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of this Article VI and the Agreement, a Participant may exercise Options, in whole or in part, during the Option Period by giving notice of exercise on a form provided by the
Committee to the Company specifying the number of whole shares of Common Shares subject to the Option to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the purchase price. Payment of the purchase price shall be by
(i) delivery of cash or certified check, (ii) delivery of Common Shares already owned by the Participant (for any minimum period 

  

 - 12 - 








 
required by the Committee) having a total value equal to the Exercise Price, (iii) by means of delivery of cash by a broker-dealer as a
“cashless” exercise, (iv) any combination of the foregoing, or (v) any other method approved by the Committee. 
 (5)
Form of Settlement. The Committee may provide, at the time of grant, that the shares to be issued upon an Option’s exercise shall be in the form of Restricted Stock or other similar securities. 
 (6) Conditions for Issuance of Shares. No Common Shares shall be issued until full payment therefore has been made. A Participant shall have all
of the rights of a shareholder of the Company holding the class of shares that is subject to such Option (including, if applicable, the right to vote the shares and the right to receive dividends) when the Participant has given written notice of
exercise, has paid in full for such shares, and such shares have been recorded on the Company’s official shareholder records as having been issued and transferred. 
 (7) No Deferral Features. To the extent necessary to comply with Code Section 409A, no Option Agreement shall include any features allowing the Participant to defer recognition of income past the date on
which taxation occurs under section 83 of the Code. 
 6.4 Standard Terms and Conditions. 
 Unless the Committee specifies otherwise in the Award Agreement, the terms set forth in this Section 6.4 shall apply to all Options granted under the
Plan. Any Option Award Agreement that incorporates the terms of the Plan by reference shall be deemed to have incorporated the terms set forth in this Section 6.4. 
 (1) Exercise Price. The standard Exercise Price per share shall be the Fair Market Value per share as of the Grant Date. 
 (2) Option Period. The standard Option Period of each Option shall be ten (10) years from the Option’s Grant Date. 
 (3) Exercisability. Subject to Section 13.1, the standard rate at which an Option shall be exercisable shall be twenty five (25) percent on each of the first four (4) anniversaries of the grant.

 (4) Method of Exercise. The standard form of payment of the Exercise Price shall be by means of delivery of cash by a broker-dealer
as a “cashless” exercise. 
 (5) Form of Settlement. The standard form of settlement shall be in unrestricted Common Shares.

 (6) Non-transferability of Options. The standard terms of an Agreement shall provide that no Option shall be sold, assigned,
margined, transferred, encumbered, conveyed, gifted, alienated, hypothecated, pledged, or otherwise disposed of, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Options shall be exercisable during the Participant’s
lifetime only by the Participant. 
  

 - 13 - 








 (7) No Deferral Features. The standard terms of an Agreement shall provide for no deferral of
recognition of income past the date on which taxation occurs under Section 83 of the Code. 
 6.5 Termination. 
 Unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement, or determined by the Committee, and except as is otherwise provided in this Section 6.5
below, Options that are not otherwise exercisable on the date of Termination of Employment shall be forfeited upon a Participant’s Termination of Employment. A Participant shall have the right to exercise Options that were otherwise exercisable
on Termination of Employment only during a period not exceeding one hundred and twenty (120) days, or such other period specified in the Agreement, after the date of such Termination of Employment (but no later than the end of the Option
Period). 
 (1) Termination by Death. Unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement or determined by the Committee, on a
Participant’s Termination of Employment due to death during the Option Period, Options held by the Participant shall become immediately exercisable and shall thereafter be fully exercisable throughout the original Option Period. 
 (2) Termination by Disability or Retirement. Unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement or determined by the Committee, and subject to
Article XII below, on a Participant’s Termination of Employment due to Disability or Retirement more than six (6) months after the Grant Date (unless circumstances exist at the time of termination that would constitute Cause under
Section 2.6), any Option held by the Participant shall continue to be exercisable by the Participant as if there was no Termination of Employment. 
 (3) Termination for Cause. Unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement or determined by the Committee, on a Participant’s Termination of Employment for Cause, the Participant shall forfeit all
Options whether those Options are otherwise exercisable as of the date of Termination of Employment or otherwise would not be exercisable on the date of Termination of Employment. 
 6.6 Notice of Disposition of Common Shares Prior to the Expiration of Specified ISO Holding Periods. 
 The Company may require that a Participant exercising an ISO give a written representation to the Company, satisfactory in form and substance, upon which the Company may rely, that the Participant will report to the
Company any disposition of shares acquired via an ISO exercise prior to the expiration of the holding periods specified by Section 422(a)(1) of the Code.

Common Shares or cash equal in value to the excess of the value per share of Common Shares over the Exercise Price per share of Common Shares specified in the related Agreement, multiplied by the number of shares in respect of which the SAR is
exercised, less any amount retained or not issued to cover tax withholdings, if necessary. The value per share of Common Shares shall be determined as of the date of exercise of such SAR.

 10.4 Termination of Employment. 
 Unless otherwise provided in an Agreement or determined by the Committee, and except as is otherwise provided in this Section 10.4 below, unvested Performance Units shall be forfeited upon a Participant’s
Termination of Employment. 
 (1) Termination by Death. In the event of a Termination of Employment during a Performance Period due to
Death, Performance Units for the Performance Period shall immediately vest and be paid out at a target level of performance. 
 (2)
Termination by Disability or Retirement. Unless otherwise provided in an Agreement or determined by the Committee, and subject to Article XII below, in the event of a Termination of Employment due to Disability or Retirement during a
Performance Period and more than six (6) months following the Grant Date (unless circumstances exist at the time of termination that would constitute Cause under Section 2.6), Performance Units shall continue to vest as if there had been
no Termination of Employment and shall be payable based on achievement of performance goals. Distribution of earned Performance Units may be made at the same time payments are made to Participants who did not incur a Termination of Employment during
the applicable Performance Period. 
 10.5 Nontransferability. 
 Unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement, Performance Units may not be sold, assigned, margined, transferred, encumbered, conveyed, gifted, alienated, hypothecated, pledged, or otherwise disposed of,
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

 11.1 Other Stock-Based Awards. 
 Other Awards of Common Shares and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based upon or settled in, Common

 ARTICLE XII 
 NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT 
 12.1 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreement.

 The Committee, in its discretion, may condition eligibility to be designated a Participant in the Plan and receipt of benefits specified in
the Agreement, such as vesting, payment, and exercisability of Awards, on the Participant’s execution of, compliance with, and/or certification of compliance with a non-competition and/or non-solicitation agreement in a form prescribed by the
Company. 
 ARTICLE XIII 
 CHANGE IN CONTROL 
 13.1 Impact of Event. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary and unless otherwise specifically provided in an Agreement, in the event of a Participant’s Termination of Employment by the Company without Cause
or by the Participant with Good Reason (after having given written notice to the Company of the grounds for Termination of Employment for Good Reason, which grounds specified in the written notice have not been cured by the Company within 90 days of
the written notice) within six months preceding or two years following a Change in Control: 
  

	 	(1)	any Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date of such Change in Control and not then exercisable shall become fully exercisable to the full extent of
the original grant; 

  

	 	(2)	the restrictions applicable to any Restricted Stock Awards shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock shall become free of all restrictions and become fully vested and transferable to
the full extent of the original grant; 

  

	 	(3)	the restrictions applicable to any Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall lapse, and such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled; and 

  

	 	(4)	any Performance Goal or other condition with respect to any Performance Units or any other Awards shall be deemed to have been satisfied in full at the target performance level, and
such Award shall be fully distributable six months following Termination of Employment. 

 13.2 Additional Discretion. 
 The Committee shall have full discretion, notwithstanding anything herein or in an Agreement to the contrary, with respect to an outstanding Award upon a
Change in Control to provide that the securities of another entity be substituted hereunder for the Common Shares and to make equitable adjustment with respect thereto.

 ARTICLE XIV 
 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO SHARES ACQUIRED UNDER THIS PLAN 
 14.1 No Company Obligation. 
 Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws, none of the Company, an Affiliated Employer or the Committee shall have any duty or
obligation to affirmatively disclose material information to a record or beneficial holder of Common Shares or an Award, and such holder shall have no right to be advised of any material information regarding the Company or an Affiliated Employer at
any time prior to, upon, or in connection with receipt or the exercise or distribution of an Award. The Company makes no representation or warranty as to the future value of the Common Shares issued or acquired in accordance with the provisions of
the Plan. 
 ARTICLE XV 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 15.1 Amendments and Termination. 
 The Committee may amend, alter, or discontinue the Plan, or the terms of any Award Agreement under the Plan, at any time, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made which would impair the rights of
a Participant under an Award theretofore granted without the Participant’s consent, unless such an amendment is made to comply with applicable law (including Code Section 409A), stock exchange rules, or accounting rules. Repricing of
Options or Stock Appreciation Rights shall not be permitted. For this purpose, a “repricing” means any of the following (or any action that has the same effect as any of the following): (1) changing the terms of an Option or Stock
Appreciation Right to lower its Exercise Price; (2) any other action that is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; and (3) repurchasing for cash or cancelling an Option or Stock Appreciation
Right at a time when its Exercise Price is greater than the fair market value of the underlying stock in exchange for another Award, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with an event set forth in Section 4.6. A
cancellation and exchange described in this Section 15.1(3) shall be considered a “repricing” regardless of whether it is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles and regardless of whether it
is voluntary on the part of the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material amendments to the Plan shall require shareholder approval to the extent required by the rules of the New York Stock Exchange or other national securities
exchange or market that regulates the securities of the Company. 
 15.2 Form of Awards. 
 All Awards shall be subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations of the Plan. The Committee may subject any Award to such other terms,
conditions, restrictions and/or limitations (including without limitation the time and conditions of 

  

 - 24 - 








 
exercise, vesting or payment of an Award and restrictions on transferability of any Common Shares issued or delivered pursuant to an Award), provided they
are not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan. The Committee may subject an Award to such conditions as it determines are necessary or appropriate to ensure that an Award constitutes “qualified performance based compensation” within the
meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations thereunder. Awards under a particular Article of the Plan need not be uniform, and Awards under more than one Article of the Plan may be combined in a single Award Agreement. Any
combination of Awards may be granted at one time and on more than one occasion to the same Participant. An Award Agreement for Restricted Stock Units or Performance Units may provide that a Participant may elect to defer receipt of income
attributable to the Award. In the event no such election is provided or made, and the Award Agreement does not otherwise provide, the Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units shall be payable to the Participant within 2 1/2 months of the end of the Company’s or the Participant’s year of vesting in the Award. 
 15.3 No Reload Rights. 
 Options shall not contain any
provisions entitling the Participant to an automatic grant of additional Options in connection with any exercise of the original Option. 
 15.4
Loans. 
 The Committee may approve the extension of a loan by the Company to a Participant who is an Employee for the sole purpose of
assisting the participant in paying the exercise price of an Option exercised by means of a cashless exercise program established by the Company, provided, however, that no loan shall be permitted if the extension of such loan would violate any
provision of applicable law. Any loan will be made upon such terms and conditions that the Committee shall determine. 
 15.5 Unfunded Status of Plan.

 It is intended that the Plan be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. The Committee may authorize the creation of trusts
or other arrangements to meet the obligations created under the Plan to deliver Common Shares or make payments; provided, however, that, unless the Committee otherwise determines, the existence of such trusts or other arrangements is consistent with
the “unfunded” status of the Plan. 
 15.6 Provisions Relating to Code Section 162(m). 
 Where expressly provided in writing by the Committee, Awards granted to persons who are (or may become) Covered Employees within the meaning of
Section 162(m) of the Code, shall constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” satisfying the relevant requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. Accordingly, in the case of such Awards, the Plan shall be administered
and the provisions of the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with Section 162(m) of the Code. If any provision of the Plan or any Agreement relating to such an Award does not comply or is inconsistent with the requirements of
Section 162(m) of the Code, such provision shall be 

  

 - 25 - 








 
construed or deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements. In addition, the following provisions shall apply to the Plan or an
Award to the extent necessary to obtain a tax deduction for the Company or an Affiliated Employer: 
  

	 	(1)	Awards subject to this Section must vest (or may be granted or vest) contingent on the attainment of one or more objective performance goals unrelated to term of employment. Awards
will also be subject to the general vesting provisions provided in the Award Agreement and this Plan. 

  

	 	(2)	Prior to completion of 25% of the Performance Period or such earlier date as required under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee must establish performance goals (in
accordance with (5) below) in writing (including but not limited to Committee minutes) for Covered Employees who will receive Awards that are intended as qualified performance-based compensation. The outcome of the goal must be substantially
uncertain at the time the Committee actually established the goal. 

  

	 	(3)	The performance goal must state, in terms of an objective formula or standard, the method for computing the Award payable to the Participant if the performance goal is attained.


  

	 	(4)	The terms of the objective formula or standard must prevent any discretion being exercised by the Committee to later increase the amount payable that otherwise would be due upon
attainment of the goal, but may allow discretion to decrease the amount payable. 

  

	 	(5)	The material terms of the performance goal must be disclosed to and subsequently approved in a separate vote by the stockholders before the payout is executed, unless they conform
to one or any combination of the following goals/targets each determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles or similar objective standards (and/or each as may appear in the annual report to stockholders, Form10-K, or
Form10-Q): 

  

	 	a)	revenue; 

  

	 	b)	earnings (including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, earnings before interest and taxes, and earnings before or after taxes);


  

	 	c)	operating income; 

  

	 	d)	net income; 

  

	 	e)	profit margins; 

  

	 	f)	earnings per share; 

  

 - 26 - 









	 	g)	return on assets; 

  

	 	h)	return on equity; 

  

	 	i)	return on invested capital; 

  

	 	j)	economic value-added; 

  

	 	k)	stock price; 

  

	 	l)	gross dollar volume; 

  

	 	m)	total shareholder return; 

  

	 	n)	market share; 

  

	 	o)	book value; 

  

	 	p)	expense management; 

  

	 	q)	cash flow; and 

  

	 	r)	customer satisfaction. 

 The foregoing criteria may relate
to the Company, one or more of its Affiliated Employers or subsidiaries or one or more of its divisions or units, or any combination of the foregoing, and may be applied on an absolute basis and/or be relative to one or more peer group companies or
indices, or any combination thereof, all as the Committee shall determine. 
  

	 	(6)	A combination of the above performance goals may be used with a particular Award Agreement. 

  

	 	(7)	The Committee in its sole discretion in setting the goals/targets in the time prescribed in paragraph (2) of this Section 15.6 may provide for the making of equitable
adjustments (singularly or in combination) to the goals/targets in recognition of unusual or non-recurring events for the following qualifying objective items: 

  

	 	a)	asset impairments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, as amended or superceded; 

  

	 	b)	acquisition-related charges; 

  

	 	c)	accruals for restructuring and/or reorganization program charges; 

  

	 	d)	merger integration costs; 

  

 - 27 - 









	 	e)	any profit or loss attributable to the business operations of any entity or entities acquired during the period of service to which the performance goal relates;


  

	 	f)	tax settlements; 

  

	 	g)	any extraordinary, unusual in nature, infrequent in occurrence, or other non-recurring items (not otherwise listed) as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30;


  

	 	h)	any extraordinary, unusual in nature, infrequent in occurrence, or other non-recurring items (not otherwise listed) in management’s discussion and analysis of financial
condition results of operations, selected financial data, financial statements and/or in the footnotes each as appearing in the annual report to stockholders, Form 10-K, or Form 10-Q; 

  

	 	i)	unrealized gains or losses on investments; 

  

	 	j)	charges related to derivative transactions contemplated by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, as amended or superceded; 

  

	 	k)	compensation charges related to FAS 123 (Revised) or its successor provision. 

  

	 	(8)	The Committee must certify in writing prior to payout that the performance goals and any other material terms were in fact satisfied. In the manner required by Section 162(m)
of the Code, the Committee shall, promptly after the date on which the necessary financial and other information for a particular Performance Period becomes available, certify the extent to which performance goals have been achieved with respect to
any Award intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. In addition, the Committee may, in its discretion, reduce or eliminate the amount of any Award payable to any Participant, based on
such factors as the Committee may deem relevant. 

  

	 	(9)	Limitation on Awards. 

  

	 	a)	If an Option is canceled, the canceled Option continues to be counted against the maximum number of shares for which Options may be granted to the Participant under the Plan, but
not towards the total number of shares reserved and available under the Plan pursuant to Section 4.1. 

  

 - 28 - 









	 	b)	In no event shall the number of Restricted Stock shares awarded to any one participant for any fiscal year exceed 500,000 shares. 

  

	 	c)	During any fiscal year, the maximum number of Common Shares for which Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Units, and Other Stock-Based
Compensation in the aggregate, may be granted to any Covered Employee shall not exceed 650,000 shares. 

  

	 	d)	For cash Performance Unit Awards that are intended to be “performance-based compensation” (as that term is used in Code Section 162(m)), the maximum payment for all
awards payable for any three-year performance period, at a target level of performance shall be $10,000,000. In the case of higher levels of performance, the maximum payment for all awards for a three-year Performance Period shall be twice that
amount. In the case of a longer or shorter Performance Period, correlative adjustments shall be made to the maximum payment. If, after amounts have been earned with respect to Performance Unit Awards, the payment of such amounts is deferred, any
additional amounts attributable to earnings during the deferral period shall be disregarded for purposes of this limit. The limitations on Awards under this Section are subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.6 to the extent consistent
with tax deductibility under Section 162(m) of the Code. 

  

	 	(10)	In the case of an outstanding Award intended to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee shall not, without
approval of a majority of the shareholders of the Company, amend the Plan or the Award in a manner that would adversely affect the Award’s continued qualification for the performance-based exception. 

 15.7 Additional Compensation Arrangements. 
 Nothing
contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company or an Affiliated Employer from adopting other or additional compensation or benefit arrangements for its employees. 
 15.8 Withholding. 
 No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in the gross income of the
Participant or Beneficiary for income tax purposes with respect to any 

  

 - 29 - 








 
Award, or becomes subject to employment taxes, the Participant shall pay to the Company (or other entity identified by the Committee), or make arrangements
satisfactory to the Company or other entity identified by the Committee regarding the payment of, any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind (including any employment taxes) required by law to be withheld with respect to such income. The
obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company and its Affiliated Employers shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment otherwise
due to the Participant. Subject to approval by the Committee, a Participant may elect to have such tax withholding obligation satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) the delivery of cash or a certified check, (ii) authorizing the Company to
withhold from Common Shares to be issued pursuant to any Award a number of shares with an aggregate value that would satisfy the required statutory minimum (but no more than such required minimum) with respect to the Company’s withholding
obligation, (iii) authorizing the Company to effect a net issuance of Common Shares to satisfy the required statutory minimum withholding (but no more than the minimum), (iv) transferring to the Company Common Shares owned by the
Participant with an aggregate value that would satisfy the required statutory minimum (but no more than such required minimum) with respect to the Company’s withholding obligation, or (v) in the case of Options, by means of delivery of
cash by a broker-dealer as a “cashless exercise.” 
 15.9 Controlling Law. 
 The Plan and all Awards made and actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New York (other than its law
respecting choice of law). 
 15.10 Offset. 
 Any amounts owed to the Company or an Affiliated Employer by the Participant of whatever nature may be offset by the Company from the value of any Award to be transferred to the Participant, and no Common Shares, cash or other thing of
value under this Plan or an Agreement shall be transferred unless and until all disputes between the Company and the Participant have been fully and finally resolved and the Participant has waived all claims to such against the Company or an
Affiliate. To the extent that any offset under this section of the Plan causes the Participant to become subject to taxes under Section 409A of the Code, the responsibility for payment of such taxes lies solely with the Participant. 

15.11 Nontransferability; Beneficiaries. 
 No Award
or Common Shares subject to an Award shall be assignable or transferable other than (i) by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a beneficiary designation, (ii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, or
(iii) as expressly permitted by the Committee, pursuant to a transfer to the Participant’s family member. Awards shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant, by the Participant’s legal
representatives in the event of the Participant’s 

  

 - 30 - 








 
incapacity, or by a permitted transferee of the Award. Each Participant may designate a Beneficiary to exercise any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or
receive any Award held by the Participant at the time of the Participant’s death or to be assigned any other Award outstanding at the time of the Participant’s death. No Award or Common Shares subject to an Award shall be subject to the
debts of a Participant or Beneficiary or subject to attachment or execution or process in any court action or proceeding unless otherwise provided in this Plan. If a deceased Participant has named no Beneficiary, any Award held by the Participant at
the time of death shall be transferred as provided in his or her will or by the laws of descent and distribution. 
 15.12 No Rights with Respect to
Continuance of Employment. 
 The Plan shall not constitute a contract of employment, and adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any
employee any right to continued employment, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliated Employer to terminate the employment of any employee at any time. 
 15.13 Awards in Substitution for Awards Granted by Other Corporations. 
 Awards may be granted under the Plan from time to time in substitution for awards held by employees, directors or service providers of other corporations who are about to become officers or employees of the Company or
an Affiliated Employer as the result of a merger or consolidation of the employing corporation with the Company or an Affiliated Employer, or the acquisition by the Company or an Affiliated Employer of the assets of the employing corporation, or the
acquisition by the Company or Affiliated Employer of the shares of the employing corporation, as the result of which it becomes an Affiliated Employer under the Plan. The Grant Date of such an Award shall be no earlier than the date the employee,
director, or service provider becomes an employee, director, or service provider of the Company or an Affiliated Employer. The terms and conditions of the Awards so granted may vary from the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan at the time of
such grant as the majority of the members of the Committee may deem appropriate to conform, in whole or in part, to the provisions of the awards in substitution for which they are granted. Any substitutions or exchanges shall be accomplished in a
manner that complies with the limitations on exchanges of such Awards imposed under Section 409A of the Code. 
 15.14 Delivery of Stock
Certificate. 
 To the extent the Company uses certificates to represent Common Shares, certificates to be delivered to Participants under
this Plan shall be deemed delivered for all purposes when the Company or a stock transfer agent of the Company shall have mailed such certificates in the United States mail, addressed to the Participant, at the Participant’s last known address
on file with the Company. Any reference in this Section or elsewhere in the Plan or an Agreement to actual stock certificates and/or the delivery of actual stock certificates shall be deemed satisfied by the electronic record-keeping and electronic
delivery of Common Shares or other mechanism then utilized by the Company and its agents for reflecting ownership of such shares. 
  

 - 31 - 








 15.15 Indemnification. 
 To the maximum extent permitted under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and by-laws, each person who is or shall have been a member of the Committee, or of the Board, shall be indemnified and held harmless
by the Company against and from (a) any loss, cost, liability or expense (including attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit or proceeding
to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under this Plan or any Award Agreement, and (b) from any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the
Company’s prior written approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such claim, action, suit or proceeding against him or her; provided, however, that he or she shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own
expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be
entitled under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or by-laws, by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, or under any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. 
 15.16 No Guarantee of Tax Consequences. 
 No person
connected with the Plan in any capacity makes any representation, commitment or guarantee that any tax treatment, including without limitation federal, state and local income, excise, estate, and gift tax treatment, will be applicable with respect
to any Awards or payments thereunder made to or for the benefit of a Participant under the Plan or that such tax treatment will apply to or be available to a Participant on account of participation in the Plan. 
 15.17 Foreign Employees and Foreign Law Consideration. 
 The Committee may grant Awards to Participants who are foreign nationals, who are located outside the United States or who are not compensated from a payroll managed in the United States, or who are otherwise subject to (or could cause the
Company to be subject to) legal or regulatory provisions of countries or jurisdictions outside the United States, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or
desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan, and in furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications, amendments, procedures, or subplans as may be necessary or advisable to comply with such legal
or regulatory provisions. 
 15.18 Section 409A Savings Clause. 
 (1) It is the intention of the Company that no Award shall be “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, unless and to the extent that the Committee specifically determines otherwise
as provided below, and the Plan and the terms and conditions of all Awards shall be interpreted accordingly. 
  

 - 32 - 








 (2) The terms and conditions governing any Awards that the Committee determines will be subject to
Section 409A of the Code, including any rules for elective or mandatory deferral of the delivery of cash or Common Shares pursuant thereto and any rules regarding treatment of such Awards in the event of a Change in Control, shall be set forth
in the applicable Award Agreement, and shall comply in all respects with Section 409A of the Code, including the six-month delay required by Section 409A(a)(2)(B) in the case of specified employees. 
 (3) Following a Change in Control, no action shall be taken under the Plan that will cause any Award that the Committee has previously determined is
subject to Section 409A of the Code to fail to comply in any respect with Section 409A of the Code without the written consent of the Participant. 
 15.19 No Fractional Shares. 
 No fractional shares shall be issued or delivered under the Plan or any Award granted
hereunder, provided that the Committee in its sole discretion may round fractional shares down to the nearest whole share or settle fractional shares in cash. 
 15.20 Severability. 
 If any provision of this Plan shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such
invalidity or unenforceability shall not effect any other provision hereby, and this Plan shall be construed as if such invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted. 
 15.21 Successors and Assigns. 
 This Plan shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon each
successor and assign of the Company. All obligations imposed upon a Participant, and all rights granted to the Company hereunder, shall be binding upon the Participant’s heirs, legal representatives and successors. 
 15.22 Entire Agreement. 
 This Plan and the Agreement
constitute the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, provided that in the event of any inconsistency between the Plan and the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Plan shall control. 
 15.23 Term. 
 No Award shall be granted under the Plan
after December 31, 2016. 
 15.24 Gender and Number. 
 Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein also shall include the feminine, the plural shall include the singular, and the singular shall include the plural.

 15.25 Headings. 
 The headings of the Articles and their subparts contained in this Plan are for the convenience of reading and reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning, interpretation or be meant to be of substantive
significance of this Plan.
