 (b) In addition to the Shares authorized by Section 4(a), the following
Shares may be issued under the Plan: 
  
 (i)
Shares available for future awards under the Prior Plan as of the effective date of this Plan, and any shares that are not issued under the Prior Plan because of the cancellation, termination or expiration of awards under the Prior Plan or the
predecessor plan. 
  
 (ii) If a Participant
tenders, or has withheld, Shares in payment of all or part of the option price under a stock option granted under the Plan, the Prior Plan, or the predecessor plan, or in satisfaction of withholding tax obligations thereunder, the Shares tendered by
the Participant or so withheld shall become available for issuance under the Plan. 
  
 (iii) If Shares that are issued under the Plan are subsequently forfeited in accordance with the terms of the Award or an Award Agreement,
the forfeited Shares shall become available for issuance under the Plan. 
  
 (c) Subject to the adjustment provisions of Section 4(g), commencing May 1, 2004, up to 10 million Shares may be issued under Awards other than Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. 
  
 (d) If an Award may be paid only in Shares or in either cash or Shares, the
Shares shall be deemed to be issued hereunder only when and to the extent that payment is actually made in Shares. However, the Committee may authorize a cash payment under an Award in lieu of Shares if there are insufficient Shares available for
issuance under the Plan. 
  
 (e) Any Shares issued hereunder may
consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or shares purchased in the open market or otherwise. 
  
 (f) Shares issued or granted in connection with Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares available for issuance under the Plan or to a Participant in
any calendar year. 
  
 (g) In the event of any merger,
reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or similar transaction or other change in corporate structure affecting the Shares, such adjustments and other substitutions shall be made to
the Plan and to Awards as the Committee in its sole discretion deems equitable or appropriate, including, without limitation, such adjustments in the aggregate number, class and kind of securities that may be delivered under the Plan, in the
aggregate or to any one Participant, in the number, class, kind and option or exercise price of securities subject to outstanding Options, 

  

  7 








 
Stock Appreciation Rights or other Awards granted under the Plan, and in the number, class and kind of securities subject to Awards granted under the Plan
(including, if the Committee deems appropriate, the substitution of similar options to purchase the shares of, or other awards denominated in the shares of, another company) as the Committee may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion;
provided that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number. 
  
 SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY. Any Employee shall be eligible to be selected as a Participant. 
  
 SECTION 6. STOCK OPTIONS. Options may be granted hereunder to Participants either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. Any
Option granted under the Plan may be evidenced by an Award Agreement in such form as the Committee from time to time approves. Any such Option shall be subject to the terms and conditions required by this Section 6 and to such additional terms
and conditions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as the Committee may deem appropriate in each case. 
  
 (a) Option Price. The purchase price per Share purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion;
provided that, except in connection with an adjustment provided for in Section 4(g), such purchase price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Share on the date of the grant of the Option. 
  
 (b) Option Period. The term of each Original Option granted hereunder
shall not exceed six years from the date the Option is granted. 
  
 (c) Exercisability. Options shall be exercisable at such time or times as determined by the Committee at or subsequent to grant, provided, however, that the minimum vesting period of an Option (excluding the Options granted on
January 13, 2005) shall be one year. 
  
 (d) Method Of
Exercise. Subject to the other provisions of the Plan, any Option may be exercised by the Participant in whole or in part at such time or times, and the Participant may make payment of the Option price in such form or forms, including, without
limitation, payment by delivery of cash, Shares or other consideration (including, where permitted by law and the Committee, Awards) having a Fair Market Value on the exercise date equal to the total Option price, or by any combination of cash,
Shares and other consideration as the Committee may specify in the applicable Award Agreement. 
  
 (e) Reload Options. A Reload Option entitles the Participant to purchase Shares (i) that are covered by an antecedent award at the time of its exercise, but are not issued upon such exercise, or
(ii) whose aggregate grant price equals the purchase price of the exercised antecedent award and any related tax withholdings. The grant price per Share of the Reload Option shall be the Fair Market Value per Share at the time of grant. The
duration of a Reload Option shall not extend beyond the expiration date of the antecedent award. No Options with a reload feature can be granted under the Plan in 2004 or anytime thereafter. Options and Reload Options granted under the Prior Plan or
predecessor plan in 2002, or prior thereto, will be eligible for grant of a 

  

 8 








 
Reload Option only once on and after January 1, 2004, which grant of a Reload Option must occur anytime prior to the expiration of the antecedent award.
For Original Options granted under the Prior Plan in 2003, only that portion of the grant that vests in 2004 will be eligible for grant of only one Reload Option, which grant must occur on or before December 31, 2004. 
  
 (f) Transferability of Options. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 14(a) of the Plan, at the discretion of the Committee and in accordance with rules it establishes from time to time, Participants may be permitted to transfer some or all of their Options to one or more “family members” as
such term is defined in Form S-8 (or any successor form) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
  
 SECTION 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted hereunder to Participants either alone or in addition to other
Awards granted under the Plan and may, but need not, relate to a specific Option granted under Section 6. The provisions of Stock Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Any Stock Appreciation Right related to
an Option may be granted at the same time such Option is granted or at any time thereafter before exercise or expiration of such Option. In the case of any Stock Appreciation Right related to any Option, the Stock Appreciation Right or applicable
portion thereof shall terminate and no longer be exercisable upon the termination or exercise of the related Option, except that a Stock Appreciation Right granted with respect to less than the full number of Shares covered by a related Option shall
not be reduced until the exercise or termination of the related Option exceeds the number of Shares not covered by the Stock Appreciation Right. Any Option related to any Stock Appreciation Right shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the
related Stock Appreciation Right has been exercised. The Committee may impose such conditions or restrictions on the exercise of any Stock Appreciation Right as it shall deem appropriate. 
  
 SECTION 8. CONTINGENT STOCK 
  

(a) Issuance. A Contingent Stock Award shall be subject to contingencies or restrictions imposed by the Committee during a period of time
specified by the Committee (the “Contingency Period”). Contingent Stock Awards may be issued hereunder to Participants, for no cash consideration or for such minimum consideration as may be required by applicable law, either alone or in
addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The provisions of Contingent Stock Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. 
  
 (b) Registration. Any Contingent Stock issued hereunder may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its sole discretion shall deem
appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance of a stock certificate or certificates. In the event any stock certificate is issued in respect of shares of Contingent Stock awarded under the Plan, such certificate
shall be registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, contingencies and restrictions applicable to such Award. 
  

  9 








 (c) Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant or
thereafter, upon termination of employment for any reason during the Contingency Period, all Shares of Contingent Stock still subject to any contingency or restriction shall be forfeited by the Participant and reacquired by the Company.
Noncontingent Shares, evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall deem appropriate, shall be issued to the Participant promptly after the Contingency Period, as determined or modified by the Committee, shall expire. 
  
 (d) Minimum Vesting Condition. The minimum Contingency Period
applicable to any Contingent Stock Award that is not subject to performance conditions restricting transfer shall be three (3) years from the date of grant; provided, however, that a Contingency Period of less than three
(3) years may be approved for such Awards with respect to up to 200,000 Shares under the Plan. 
  
 SECTION 9. PERFORMANCE AWARDS. Performance Awards may be granted hereunder to Participants, for no cash consideration or for such minimum
consideration as may be required by applicable law, either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The performance criteria to be achieved during any Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be
determined by the Committee upon the grant of each Performance Award. Except as provided in Section 11, Performance Awards will be paid only after the end of the relevant Performance Period. Performance Awards may be paid in cash, Shares, other
property or any combination thereof in the sole discretion of the Committee at the time of payment. The performance levels to be achieved for each Performance Period and the amount of the Award to be paid shall be conclusively determined by the
Committee. Performance Awards may be paid in a lump sum or in installments following the close of the Performance Period or, in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, on a deferred basis. 
  
 SECTION 10. OTHER STOCK UNIT AWARDS. 
  
 (a) Other Awards of Shares and other Awards that are valued in whole or in
part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, Shares or other property (“Other Stock Unit Awards”) may be granted hereunder to Participants, either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. Other Stock Unit Awards may
be paid in Shares, cash or any other form of property as the Committee shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries to
whom, and the time or times at which, such Awards shall be made, the number of Shares to be granted pursuant to such Awards and all other conditions of the Awards. The provisions of Other Stock Unit Awards need not be the same with respect to each
recipient. 
  
 (b) Subject to the provisions of this Plan and any
applicable Award Agreement, Awards and Shares subject to Awards granted under this Section 10, may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the Shares are issued, or, if later, the date on
which any applicable contingency, restriction, performance or deferral period lapses. For any Award or Shares subject to any Award granted under this Section 10 the transferability of which is conditioned only on the passage of time, such
restriction period shall be a minimum of three (3) years. Shares (including securities convertible into Shares) subject to 

  

  10 








 
Awards granted under this Section 10 may be issued for no cash consideration or for such minimum consideration as may be required by applicable law.
Shares (including securities convertible into Shares) purchased pursuant to a purchase right granted under this Section 10 thereafter shall be purchased for such consideration as the Committee shall in its sole discretion determine, which shall
not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares or other securities as of the date such purchase right is granted. 
  
 SECTION 11. CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS. 
  
 (a) Impact of Event. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, unless the Committee shall determine otherwise at the time of
grant with respect to a particular Award, in the event of a Change in Control: 
  
 (i) any Options and Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding as of the date such Change in Control is determined to have occurred, and which
are not then exercisable and vested, shall become fully exercisable and vested to the full extent of the original grant; 
  
 (ii) the contingencies, restrictions and deferral limitations applicable to any Contingent Stock shall lapse, and such Contingent Stock
shall become free of all contingencies, restrictions and limitations and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant; 
  
 (iii) all Performance Awards shall be considered to be earned and payable at the target amount of Shares covered by the Award, to the
extent that the Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period, or at the calculated award level, to the extent that the Change in Control occurs after the Performance Period, and shall be immediately settled or distributed. Any deferral,
contingency or other restriction applicable to such Performance Awards shall lapse; and 
  
 (iv) the contingencies, restrictions and deferral limitations and other conditions applicable to any Other Stock Unit Awards or any other
Awards shall lapse, and such Other Stock Unit Awards or such other Awards shall become free of all contingencies, restrictions, limitations or conditions and become fully vested and transferable to the full extent of the original grant; and

  
 (v) the restrictions applicable to any Shares
received in connection with the grant of a Reload Option shall lapse and such Shares shall be freely and fully transferable. 
  
 (b) Change In Control Settlement. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, during the 60-day period from and after a Change in Control (the
“Change in Control Election Period”), a Participant holding an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall have the right, whether or not the Option or Stock Appreciation Right is fully exercisable and in lieu of the payment of the purchase
price for the Shares being purchased under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right and by giving notice to the Company, to elect (within the Change in Control Election Period) to surrender all or part of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right to the


  

  11 








 
Company and to receive cash, within 30 days of such notice, in an amount equal to the amount by which the Change in Control Price per Share on the date of
such election shall exceed the purchase price per Share under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right multiplied by the number of Shares granted under the Option or Stock Appreciation right as to which the right granted under this Section 11(b)
shall have been exercised. 
  
 (c) Other Forms of
Settlement. The foregoing provisions of this Section 11 shall not preclude other forms of settlement of outstanding Awards in the event of a Change in Control, including a conversion or exchange of Awards for awards or securities of any
person that is a party to or initiates the Change in Control transaction; provided that no Participant shall be required to accept any such substituted or exchanged award or security without such Participant’s written consent.

  
 SECTION 12. CODE SECTION 162(m) PROVISIONS. 

 
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, if the Committee
determines at the time Contingent Stock, a Performance Award or an Other Stock Unit Award is granted to a Participant that such Participant is, or is likely to be as of the end of the tax year in which the Company would claim a tax deduction in
connection with such Award, a Covered Employee, then the Committee may provide that this Section 12 is applicable to such Award. 
  
 (b) If an Award is subject to this Section 12, then the lapsing of contingencies or restrictions thereon and the distribution of cash, Shares or
other property pursuant thereto, as applicable, shall be subject to the achievement by the Company or any Subsidiary, or any division or business unit thereof, as appropriate, of one or more objective performance goals established by the Committee,
which shall be based on the attainment of specified levels of one or any combination of the following: cumulative net income or cumulative net income per share during the performance period; return on sales; return on assets; return on capital;
return on shareholders’ equity; cash flow; economic value added; cumulative operating income; total shareholders’ return; cost reductions; or achievement of environment, health & safety goals of the Company or the Subsidiary or
business unit of the Company for or within which the Participant is primarily employed. Performance goals may be based upon the attainment of specified levels of Company, Subsidiary or unit performance under one or more of the measures described
above relative to the performance of other comparator companies or groups of companies, and may include a threshold level of performance below which no Award will be earned, levels of performance at which an Award will become partially earned, and a
level of performance at which an Award will be fully earned. Performance goals shall be set by the Committee within the time period prescribed by, and shall otherwise comply with, the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code, or any successor
provision thereto, and the regulations thereunder. 
  
 (c)
Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan other than Section 11, with respect to any Award that is subject to this Section 12, the Committee may adjust downwards, but not upwards, the amount payable pursuant to such Award, and the
Committee may not waive the achievement of the applicable performance goals. 
  

  12 








 (d) The Committee shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this
Section 12 as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements for “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, or any successor provision
thereto. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan other
than Section 4(g), no Participant may be granted Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights in any calendar year with respect to more than two million (2,000,000) Shares, or Contingent Stock Awards or Performance Share Awards covering more
than 300,000 Shares. The maximum dollar value payable with respect to Performance Units and/or Other Stock Unit Awards that are valued with reference to property other than Shares and granted to any Participant in any one calendar year is
$2,000,000. 
  
 SECTION 13. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION. The
Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder approval
if: (x) such approval is necessary to qualify for or comply with any tax or regulatory requirement for which or with which the Board deems it necessary or desirable to qualify or comply; or (y) a proposed amendment or alteration would
materially increase the benefits accruing to Participants, materially increase the maximum number of shares which may be issued under the Plan or materially modify the Plan’s eligibility requirements: or (ii) the consent of the affected
Participant, if such action would impair the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary so as to have the Plan conform
to local rules and regulations in any jurisdiction outside the United States. 
  
 The Committee may amend the terms of any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively, but no such amendment shall impair the rights of any Participant without his or her consent. Notwithstanding any
provision of this Plan, the Committee may not amend the terms of any Option to reduce the option price, nor amend the terms of any Contingent Stock Award or Other Stock Unit Award to reduce the minimum vesting period specified therein. 

 
 SECTION 14. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

otherwise at the time the Award is granted or thereafter, and except for transfers of Options permitted by Section 6(f) of the Plan: (i) no Award, and no Shares subject to Awards described in Section 10 that have not been issued, or
as to which any applicable contingency, restriction, performance or deferral period has not lapsed, may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution; provided that,
if so determined by the Committee, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant, and (ii) each Award

uniformity of treatment of Employees or Participants under the Plan. 
  
 (d) Terms and Conditions of Award. The prospective recipient of any Award under the Plan shall be deemed to have become a Participant subject to all the applicable terms and conditions of the Award upon the grant of the Award to the

 (e) Award Adjustments. Except as provided in Section 12, the Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments

 (f) Committee Right to Cancel. The Committee shall have full power and
authority to determine whether, to what extent and under what circumstances any Award shall be canceled or suspended. In particular, but without limitation, all outstanding Awards to any Participant shall be canceled if the Participant, without the

Committee) any business that is in competition with the Company or with any business in which the Company has a substantial interest as determined by the Committee or otherwise takes any action that in the judgment of the Committee is not in the
best interests of the Company. 
  
 (g) Stock Certificate
Legends. All certificates for Shares delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award shall be subject to such stock transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Shares are then listed and any applicable Federal or state securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make
appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
  
 (h) Compliance
with Securities Laws. No Award granted hereunder shall be construed as an offer to sell securities of the Company, and no such offer shall be outstanding, unless and until the Committee in its sole discretion has determined that any such offer,
if made, would be in compliance with all applicable requirements of the U.S. Federal securities laws and any other laws to which such offer, if made, would be subject.

to which the payment of any Award may be deferred. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and any Award Agreement, the recipient of an Award (including, without limitation, any deferred Award) may, if so determined by the Committee, be entitled to
receive, currently or on a deferred basis, cash dividends, or cash payments in amounts equivalent to cash dividends on Shares (“Dividend Equivalents”), with respect to the number of Shares covered by the Award, as determined by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, and the Committee may provide that such amounts (if any) shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or otherwise reinvested.

Plan, recipients of Awards under the Plan shall not be required to make any payment or provide consideration other than the rendering of services.

Company.

authorized to withhold from any Award granted or payment due under the Plan the amount of withholding taxes due in respect of an Award or payment hereunder and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy
all obligations for the payment of such taxes. The Committee shall be authorized to establish procedures for election by Participants to satisfy such obligations for the payment of such taxes by delivery of or transfer of Shares to the Company or by
directing the Company to retain Shares otherwise deliverable in connection with the Award.

 (p) Awards to NonU.S. Employees. Awards may be granted to Employees who are foreign nationals or
employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Employees employed in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable in order to recognize
differences in local law or tax policy. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the Company’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Employees on assignments outside their home
countries.
