|Disability                           |  | If your Service terminates because of your Permanent Disability, then this option will expire at the close of business at Corporation headquarters
on the date 12 months after your termination date.  For all purposes under this
Agreement, Permanent Disability means that you are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted,
or can be expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than one year.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              
|                                     | 
|Leaves of Absence and Part-Time Work |  | For purposes of this option, your Service does not terminate when you go on a military leave, a sick leave or another bona fide leave of absence,
if the leave was approved by the Corporation in writing. Your Service terminates when the approved leave ends, unless you immediately return to active work.  If you go on a leave of absence that lasts or is expected to last seven days or longer, then any unvested shares subject to this option shall not become exercisable and
Vesting will be suspended during the leave to the extent provided for in the Corporations leave policy. Upon your return to active work, vesting will resume; however, unless otherwise provided in the Corporations leave policy, you will
not receive credit for any vesting during the period of your leave.  If you and
the Corporation agree to a reduction in your scheduled work hours, then the Corporation reserves the right to modify the rate at which this option becomes exercisable or vests, so that the rate of vesting is commensurate with your reduced work
schedule. Any such adjustment shall be consistent with the Corporations policies for part-time or reduced work schedules or shall be pursuant to the terms of an agreement between you and the Corporation pertaining to your reduced work
schedule.  The Corporation shall not be required to adjust the exercise or
vesting schedule of any option pursuant to this subsection.

|Misconduct                           |  | If your Service terminates for Misconduct, then this option will terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding. Misconduct includes fraud, embezzlement, dishonesty or any
unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets of the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary or any other intentional misconduct adversely affecting the business or affairs of the Corporation or a parent or subsidiary
of the Corporation.

above section entitled Death.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      
|                         | 
|Form of Payment          |  | When you submit your notice of exercise, you must include payment of the option exercise price for the shares that you are purchasing. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, payment may be made in one (or a combination of two or more) of the following forms:        Your personal check, a cashiers check or a money order.        Certificates for shares of Corporation stock that you own, along with any forms needed to effect a transfer of those shares to the Corporation. The value of the shares, determined as of the
effective date of the option exercise, will be applied to the option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Corporation stock, you may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by the Corporation and have the same number
of shares subtracted from the option shares issued to you. However, you may not surrender, or attest to the ownership of, shares of Corporation stock in payment of the exercise price if your action would cause the Corporation to recognize
compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this option for financial reporting purposes.        Irrevocable directions to a securities broker approved by the Corporation to sell all
or part of your option shares and to deliver to the Corporation from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the option exercise price and any withholding taxes. (The balance of the sale proceeds, if any, will be delivered to you.) The
directions must be given by signing a special Notice of Exercise form provided by the Corporation. However, payment pursuant to this procedure shall not be permitted if such payment would violate applicable law or a policy of the
Corporation.

|                                        |  |       Irrevocable directions to a securities broker or lender approved by the Corporation to pledge
option shares as security for a loan and to deliver to the Corporation from the loan proceeds an amount sufficient to pay the option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The directions must be given by signing a special Notice of
Exercise form provided by the Corporation. However, payment pursuant to this procedure shall not be permitted if such payment would violate applicable law or a policy of the Corporation.                                                                                                            
|                                        | 
|Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding |  | You will not be allowed to exercise this option unless you make arrangements acceptable to the Corporation to pay any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of the option exercise.
With the Corporations consent, these arrangements may include withholding shares of Corporation stock that otherwise would be issued to you when you exercise this option. The value of these shares, determined as of the effective date of the
option exercise, will be applied to the withholding taxes.                                                                                                                                                
|                                        | 
|Restrictions on Resale                  |  | You agree not to sell any option shares at a time when applicable laws, regulations, Corporation trading policies (including the Corporations Insider Trading Policy, a copy of which can
be found on the Corporations intranet) or an agreement between the Corporation and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction will apply as long as your Service continues and for such period of time after the termination of your
Service as the Corporation may specify.                                                                                                                                                                        
|                                        | 
|Transfer of Option                      |  | In general, only you may exercise this option prior to your death. You may not transfer or assign this option, except as provided below. For instance, you may not sell this option or use it
as security for a loan. If you attempt to do any of these things, this option will immediately become invalid. You may, however, dispose of this option in your will or in a beneficiary designation.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
|                                        | 
|                                        |  | Regardless of any marital property settlement agreement, the Corporation is not obligated to honor a notice of exercise from your former spouse,
nor is the Corporation obligated to recognize your former spouses interest in your option in any other way.  If another person wants to exercise this option after it has been transferred to him or her, including a transfer upon your death, that person must prove to the
Corporations satisfaction that he or she is entitled to exercise this option. That person must also complete the proper Notice of Exercise form (as described above) and pay the exercise price (as described
below).

|Retention Rights              |  | Your option or this Agreement does not give you the right to be retained by the Corporation or a subsidiary of the Corporation in any capacity. The Corporation and its subsidiaries reserve
the right to terminate your Service at any time, with or without cause.

|Stockholder Rights            |  | You, or your estate or heirs, have no rights as a stockholder of the Corporation until you have exercised this option by giving the required notice to the Corporation and paying the exercise
price. No adjustments are made for dividends or other rights if the applicable record date occurs before you exercise this option, except as described in the Plan.                                                                                                               
|                              | 
|Adjustments                   |  | In the event of a stock split, a stock dividend or a similar change in Corporation stock, the number of shares covered by this option and the exercise price per share may be adjusted pursuant
to the Plan.
