	(1)	1/3 of the Restricted Share Units granted pursuant to Section 4.1 shall vest on the first (1st) anniversary of the Date of Grant; 


 

	(2)	1/3 of the Restricted Share Units granted pursuant to Section 4.1 shall vest on the second (2nd) anniversary of the Date of Grant; and 


 

	(3)	1/3 of the Restricted Share Units granted pursuant to Section 4.1 shall vest on the third (3rd) anniversary of the Date of Grant. 


 

	Section 4.5	Adjustments. 

 Subject to any required approval by the TSX or regulatory authority, in
the case of any merger, amalgamation, arrangement, rights offering, subdivision, consolidation, or reclassification of the Shares or other relevant change in the capitalization of the Company, or stock dividend or distribution (excluding dividends
or distributions which may be paid in cash or in Shares at the option of the Shareholder), or exchange of the Shares for other securities or property, the Company shall make appropriate adjustments in the Shares issuable or amounts payable, as the
case may be, as determined as appropriate by the Board, to preclude a dilution or enlargement of the benefits hereunder, and any such adjustment (or non-adjustment) by the Company shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the RSU Participants.
However, no amount will be paid to, or in respect of, the RSU Participants under the Plan or pursuant to any other arrangement, and no additional Restricted Share Units will be granted to such RSU Participant to compensation for a downward
fluctuation in the Market Value of the Shares, nor will any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a RSU Participant for such purpose.

 ARTICLE 5 

SETTLEMENT & EXPIRY 
  

	Section 5.1	Settlement of Restricted Share Units. 

  

	(1)	Except as otherwise provided in a RSU Participant’s Grant Agreement or any other provision of this Plan: 

  

	 	(a)	All of the vested Restricted Share Units covered by a particular grant may be settled on the first Business Day following their RSU Vesting Date (the “Settlement Date”), but in no event later than
December 31 of the third calendar year following the year in which the services giving rise to the award were rendered; and 

  

	 	(b)	Following the RSU Vesting Date in respect of an award of Restricted Share Units granted to a RSU Participant, a RSU Participant shall become entitled to deliver to the Company a RSU Settlement Notice in respect of any
or all vested Units which it desires to settle. The RSU Participant will, when requested by the Company, execute and deliver all such documents relating to the settlement of the vested Restricted Share Units which the Company deems necessary or
desirable. 

  

	(2)	Following the receipt by the Company of a RSU Settlement Notice, the Company shall elect to settle the Restricted Share Units through delivery of: 


 

	 	(a)	in the case of settlement for their Cash Equivalent, a cheque to the RSU Participant representing the Cash Equivalent; 

  

	 	(b)	in the case of settlement for Shares, a share certificate to the RSU Participant representing Shares issued from treasury; or 

  

	 	(c)	in the case of settlement for a combination of Shares and the Cash Equivalent, a combination of (a) and (b) above. 


Subject to the foregoing, the decision as to mode of payment shall be made by the Board in its sole discretion, and a payment of the Cash
Equivalent and/or Shares, as the case may be, to any one RSU Participant shall not create any obligation for the Board to make a similar payment to any other RSU Participant. 
  


	Section 5.2	Determination of Amounts. 

  

	(1)	Cash Equivalent of Restricted Share Units. For purposes of determining the Cash Equivalent of Restricted Share Units to be made pursuant to Section 5.1(2)(a) or Section 5.1(2)(c), such
calculation will be made on the Settlement Date based on the Market Value on the Settlement Date multiplied by the number of vested Restricted Share Units in the RSU Participant’s Restricted Share Unit notional account which are being settled
on the Settlement Date, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes. 


  
 14 









	(2)	Payment in Shares; Issuance of Shares from Treasury. For the purposes of determining the number of Shares from treasury to be issued and delivered to a RSU Participant upon settlement
of Restricted Share Units pursuant to Section 5.1(2)(b) or Section 5.1(2)(c), such calculation will be made on the Settlement Date, or if the Settlement Date is not a Business Day, on the next such Business Day, based on the whole number
of Shares equal to the whole number of vested Restricted Share Units then recorded in the RSU Participant’s Restricted Share Unit notional account that are being settled on the Settlement Date, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes. Shares
issued from treasury will be issued in consideration for the past services of the RSU Participant to the Company and the entitlement of the RSU Participant under this Plan shall be satisfied in full by such issuance of Shares. As set out in
Section 5.3, the Company will, if applicable, also make a cash payment, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes, to the RSU Participant with respect to the value of any fractional Restricted Share Units standing to the RSU Participant’s
credit after the maximum number of whole Shares have been issued by the Company as described above. 

  

	Section 5.3	Cash Payment. 

 If applicable, the Company shall also make a cash payment, net of any
Applicable Withholding Taxes, to the RSU Participant with respect to the value of fractional Restricted Share Units standing to the RSU Participant’s credit after the maximum number of whole Shares have been issued by the Company, calculated by
multiplying (i) the number of such fractional Restricted Share Units by (ii) the Market Value of such fractional Restricted Share Units on the Settlement Date. 
  

	Section 5.4	Applicable Withholding Taxes. 

  

	(1)	For greater certainty, unless not required under the ITA or any other applicable law, no cash payment will be made nor will Shares be issued until: 


 

	 	(a)	An amount sufficient to cover the Applicable Withholding Taxes payable on the settlement of such Restricted Share Units has been received by the Company (or withheld by the Company from the Cash Equivalent and/or cash
payment noted above if applicable); or 

  

	 	(b)	The RSU Participant undertakes to arrange for such number of Shares to be sold as is necessary to raise an amount equal to the Applicable Withholding Taxes, and to cause the proceeds from the sale of such Shares to be
delivered to the Company. 

  

	Section 5.5	Cancellation of Restricted Share Units. 

 Upon payment in full of the value of the
Restricted Share Units, the Restricted Share Units shall be cancelled and no further payments shall be made from the Plan in relation to such Restricted Share Units. 

  
 15 









	Section 5.6	Termination. 

 Except as the Board may otherwise determine or unless otherwise provided
in the RSU Participant’s Grant Agreement and regardless of any adverse or potentially adverse tax or other consequences, if a RSU Participant ceases to be an Eligible Person for any reason, including, without limitation, as a result of his or
her resignation, voluntary or involuntary termination, retirement, Disability, or death, any unvested Restricted Share Units held by such RSU Participant shall Expire on the RSU Termination Date. 

ARTICLE 6 
 DEFERRED
SHARE UNITS 
  

	Section 6.1	Grant of Deferred Share Units. 

  

	(1)	Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Board may grant Deferred Share Units to a DSU Participant upon the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein and such other terms, conditions and limitations
permitted by and not inconsistent with this Plan as the Board may determine. 

  

	(2)	The grant of a Deferred Share Unit shall be evidenced by a Grant Agreement, signed on behalf of the Company. 

  

	(3)	The Company shall maintain a notional account for each DSU Participant, in which shall be recorded the number of Deferred Share Units granted or credited to such Participant. 


 

	(4)	The grant of a Deferred Share Unit to a DSU Participant, or the settlement of a Deferred Share Unit, under the Plan shall neither entitle such DSU Participant to receive nor preclude such DSU Participant from receiving
subsequently granted Deferred Share Units. 

  

	Section 6.2	Equivalence. 

 One (1) Deferred Share Unit is equivalent to one (1) Share.
Fractional Deferred Share Units are permitted under the Plan. 
  

	Section 6.3	Election Notice; Elected Amount. 

  

	(1)	Subject to Board approval, a DSU Participant may elect by filing an election notice in the form of Schedule “C” attached hereto (the “Election Notice”), once each Fiscal Year, to be paid,
subject to any minimum amount that may be required by the Board, up to one hundred percent (100%) of his or her Annual Board Retainer in the form of Deferred Share Units (the “Elected Amount”), with the balance of such Annual
Board Retainer being paid in cash in accordance with the Company’s regular practices of paying such cash compensation. In the case of an existing DSU Participant, the election must be completed, signed and delivered to the Company by the end of
the Fiscal Year preceding the Fiscal Year to which such election is to apply. In the case of a new DSU Participant, the election must be completed, signed and delivered to the Company as soon as possible, and, in any event, no later than 30 days
after the director’s appointment, with such election to be effective on the first day of the fiscal quarter of the Company following the date of the Company’s receipt of the election until the final day of such Fiscal Year. For the first
year of the Plan, DSU Participants must make such election as soon as possible, and, in any event, no later than 30 days, after adoption of the Plan and the election shall be effective on the first day of the fiscal quarter of the Company following
the date of the Company’s receipt of the election until the final day of such Fiscal Year. If no election is made in respect of a particular Fiscal Year, the new or existing DSU Participant will be paid in cash in accordance with the
Company’s regular practices of paying such cash compensation. 


  
 16 









	(2)	In the absence of a designation to the contrary (including delivery of an Election Notice by a DSU Participant requesting that a greater or lesser percentage of his or her Annual Board Retainer be payable in the form of
Deferred Share Units relative to the percentage previously elected by such DSU Participant), the DSU Participant’s Election Notice shall remain in effect unless otherwise terminated. 


 

	Section 6.4	Termination Right. 

  

	(1)	Each DSU Participant is entitled to terminate his or her participation in the Plan by filing with the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, or such other officer of the Company designated by the Board, a notice
electing to terminate the receipt of additional Deferred Share Units in the form of Schedule “E” attached hereto (“Termination Notice”). Such Termination Notice shall be effective as of the date received by the Company.


  

	(2)	Thereafter, any portion of such DSU Participant’s Annual Board Retainer payable, and subject to comply with Section 6.3, all subsequent Annual Board Retainers shall be paid in cash in accordance with the
Company’s regular practices of paying such cash compensation. 

  

	(3)	For greater certainty, to the extent a DSU Participant terminates his or her participation in the Plan, he or she shall not be entitled to become a DSU Participant again until the Fiscal Year following the Fiscal Year
in which the Termination Notice becomes effective. 

  

	Section 6.5	Calculation. 

  

	(1)	The number of Deferred Share Units (including fractional Deferred Share Units) granted at any particular time pursuant to this Plan will be calculated by: 


 

	 	(a)	in the case of an Elected Amount, by dividing (i) the dollar amount of the Elected Amount allocated to the DSU Participant by (ii) the Market Value of a Share on the applicable Award Date; or


  

	 	(b)	in the case of a grant of Deferred Share Units pursuant to Section 6.1, by dividing (i) the dollar amount of such grant by (ii) the Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant. 


 

	Section 6.6	Vesting. 

  

	(1)	All Deferred Share Units recorded in a DSU Participant’s Deferred Share Unit notional account shall vest on the DSU Termination Date, unless otherwise determined by the Board at its sole discretion and in
compliance with Section 3.3(5), subject to a determination of the Board made in accordance with Article 7 and Article 8. 


  
 17 









	(2)	DSU Participants will not have any right to receive any benefit under the Plan in respect of a Deferred Share Unit until the DSU Termination Date. 


 

	Section 6.7	Settlement in respect of Deferred Share Units. 

 In respect of an award of Deferred
Share Units granted to a DSU Participant, settlement shall be as soon as practicable following the DSU Termination Date and no later than the DSU Payment Date: 
  

	(1)	Subject to Section 6.7(2), the DSU Participant (or where the DSU Participant has died, a dependant or relation of the DSU Participant or the legal representative of the DSU Participant) will deliver to the Company
a DSU Settlement Notice, in the DSU Participant’s sole discretion, to elect to settle all Deferred Share Units in such DSU Participant’s notional account for their Cash Equivalent (determined in accordance with Section 6.8(1)), Shares
(determined in accordance with Section 6.8(2)) or a combination thereof. 

  

	(2)	If such DSU Settlement Notice is not received by the Company within 30 days prior to the DSU Payment Date, settlement shall take the form of the Cash Equivalent determined in accordance with Section 6.8(1), among
other provisions of this Plan. 

  

	(3)	Settlement of Deferred Share Units shall take place on the DSU Payment Date and in the form set out in the DSU Settlement Notice through: 


 

	 	(a)	in the case of settlement for their Cash Equivalent, a cheque to the Participant, a dependant or relation of the Participant or the Participant’s duly authorized legal representative, as the case may be,
representing the Cash Equivalent; 

  

	 	(b)	in the case of settlement for Shares, a share certificate to the Participant, a dependant or relation of the Participant or the Participant’s duly authorized legal representative, as the case may be, representing
Shares issued from treasury; or 

  

	 	(c)	in the case of settlement for a combination of Shares and the Cash Equivalent, a combination of (a) and (b) above. 

  

	Section 6.8	Determination of Amounts. 

  

	(1)	Cash Equivalent of Deferred Share Units. For purposes of determining the Cash Equivalent of Deferred Share Units to be made pursuant to Section 6.7(3)(a) or Section 6.7(3)(c), such calculation
will be made on the Market Value on the DSU Termination Date multiplied by the number of vested Deferred Share Units in the Participant’s Deferred Share Unit notional account, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes, as of the DSU Termination
Date. 


  
 18 









	(2)	Payment in Shares; Issuance of Shares from Treasury. For the purposes of determining the number of Shares from treasury to be issued and delivered to a DSU Participant upon settlement
of Deferred Share Units pursuant to Section 6.7(3)(b) or Section 6.7(3)(c), such calculation will be made on the DSU Termination Date, or if the DSU Termination Date is not a Business Day, on the next such Business Day, based on the whole
number of Shares equal to the whole number of vested Deferred Share Units then recorded in the Participant’s Deferred Share Unit notional account that are being settled on the DSU Termination Date, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes.
Shares issued from treasury will be issued in consideration for the past services of the DSU Participant to the Company and the entitlement of the DSU Participant under this Plan shall be satisfied in full by such issuance of Shares. As set out in
Section 6.9, the Company will, if applicable, also make a cash payment, net of any Applicable Withholding Taxes, to the Participant with respect to the value of any fractional Deferred Share Units standing to the Participant’s credit after
the maximum number of whole Shares have been issued by the Company as described above. 

  

	Section 6.9	Cash Payment. 

 If applicable, the Company shall also make a cash payment, net of any
Applicable Withholding Taxes, to the DSU Participant with respect to the value of fractional Deferred Share Units standing to the DSU Participant’s credit after the maximum number of whole Shares have been issued by the Company, calculated by
multiplying (i) the number of such fractional Deferred Share Units by (ii) the Market Value of such fractional Deferred Share Units on the applicable date. 
  

	Section 6.10	Applicable Withholding Taxes. 

 For greater certainty, unless not required under the ITA or any other
applicable law, no cash payment will be made nor will Shares be issued until: 
  

	 	(a)	An amount sufficient to cover the Applicable Withholding Taxes payable on the settlement of such Deferred Share Units has been received by the Company (or withheld by the Company from the Cash Equivalent and/or cash
payment noted above if applicable); or 

  

	 	(b)	The DSU Participant undertakes to arrange for such number of Shares to be sold as is necessary to raise an amount equal to Applicable Withholding Taxes, and to cause the proceeds from the sale of such Shares to be
delivered to the Company. 

  

	Section 6.11	Cancellation of Deferred Share Units. 

 Upon payment in full of the value of the
Deferred Share Units, the Deferred Share Units shall be cancelled and no further payments shall be made from the Plan in relation to such Deferred Share Units. 

  
 19 









	Section 6.12	Adjustments. 

 Subject to any required approval by the TSX or regulatory authority, in
the case of any merger, amalgamation, arrangement, rights offering, subdivision, consolidation, or reclassification of the Shares or other relevant change in the capitalization of the Company, or stock dividend or distribution (excluding dividends
or distributions which may be paid in cash or in Shares at the option of the Shareholder), or exchange of the Shares for other securities or property, the Company shall make appropriate adjustments in the Shares issuable or amounts payable, as the
case may be, as determined as appropriate by the Board, to preclude a dilution or enlargement of the benefits hereunder, and any such adjustment (or non-adjustment) by the Company shall be conclusive, final and binding upon the DSU Participants.
However, no amount will be paid to, or in respect of, the DSU Participants under the Plan or pursuant to any other arrangement, and no additional Deferred Share Units will be granted to such Participant to compensation for a downward fluctuation in
the price of the Shares, nor will any other form of benefit be conferred upon, or in respect of, a DSU Participant for such purpose. 

ARTICLE 7 

ASSUMPTION OR SUBSTITUTION OF UNITS 
  

	Section 7.1	Substitution 

  

	(1)	In the event of a Substitution Event, any surviving or acquiring company must, unless Article 8 applies: 

  

	 	(a)	Assume any Unit outstanding under the Plan on substantially the same economic terms and conditions as the Plan; or 

  

	 	(b)	Substitute or replace restricted share units and deferred share units, as applicable (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the securityholders of the Company in the transaction effecting the
Substitution Event) for those Restricted Share Units and Deferred Share Units outstanding under the Plan on substantially the same economic terms and conditions as the Plan. 


 

	(2)	In the event any surviving or acquiring company neglects or refuses (as determined by the Board, acting reasonably) to assume any Units or to substitute or replace similar restricted share units and deferred share
units, as applicable, for those outstanding Restricted Share Units and Deferred Share Units under the Plan in connection with a Substitution Event, then with respect to any Units held by Participants, the vesting of such Units will automatically and
without further action by the Board or the Company be immediately accelerated so that such Units will be fully vested. 

  

	(3)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in the event of a potential Substitution Event, the Board may, in its discretion: (i) terminate, conditionally or otherwise and on such terms as it sees fit, the
Units not settled following successful completion of such Substitution Event; and (ii) accelerate, conditionally or otherwise and on such terms as it sees fit, the vesting of Units or otherwise modify the terms of the Units to assist the
Participants to obtain the advantage of holding Shares during the Substitution Event. If the Substitution Event referred to in this Article 7 is not completed during the time specified therein (as the same may be extended), the Units which vested
pursuant to this Article 7 will be reinstated as unvested Units and the original terms applicable to such Units will apply. If any of the Units that vested pursuant to this Article 7 were settled, the applicable Shares or the Cash Equivalent must be
returned to the Company and any Shares shall be cancelled. The determination of the Board in respect of any such Substitution Event will for the purposes of this Plan be final, conclusive and binding. 


  
 20 








 ARTICLE 8 

TAKE-OVER BIDS 
  

	Section 8.1	Take-over Bids 

  

	(1)	In the event of a “potential change of control following a take-over bid” (as defined herein), the Board may, in its discretion, conditionally or otherwise and on such terms as it sees fit, accelerate the
vesting of all of a Participant’s unvested Units to a date prior to the expiry date of such take-over bid or offer, such that all of a Participant’s Units will immediately vest at such time and the RSU Vesting Date or the DSU Termination
Date, as applicable, in connection with such Units will be adjusted accordingly. Subject to Section 3.3(5). Subject to Section 3.3(5), in such event, all Units so vested may be settled conditionally or otherwise, from such date until their
respective expiry date so as to permit the Participant to tender the Shares received upon such settlement pursuant to the take-over bid or offer. For purposes of this Article 8, a “potential change of control following a take-over
bid” will be deemed to occur upon a formal take-over bid or tender offer for Shares being made as a result of which the offeror and its Affiliates or Associates, and each company, trust, partnership or other entity under common control with
any of them would, if successful, beneficially own, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the Shares then outstanding. 

  

	(2)	Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, in the event of a potential change of control following a take-over bid, the Board will have the power, if determined appropriate (i) to terminate, conditionally
or otherwise and on such terms as it sees fit, the Units not settled following successful completion of such event, and/or (ii) to modify the terms of the Units, conditionally or otherwise and on such terms as it sees fit, in order to assist
the Participants to tender their securities into the take-over bid. For greater certainty, in the event that the acquiring entity acquires one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding Shares following the take-over bid, the Board will have the
power, if determined appropriate, to terminate the Units not settled upon the expiry of the time period for tendering Shares to the acquiring entity for purchase. 


 

	(3)	If the take-over bid referred to in this Article 8 is not completed within the time specified therein (as the same may be extended), the Units that vested pursuant to this Article 8 (if any) will be reinstated as
unvested Units and the original terms applicable to such Units will apply. If any of the Units that vested pursuant to this Article 8 (if any) were settled the applicable Shares or the Cash Equivalent must be returned to the Company, and any Shares
shall be cancelled. The determination of the Board with respect to any such event will for the purposes of this Plan be final, conclusive and binding.

distribution.

consolidation involving the Company or to create or issue any bonds, debentures, Shares or other securities of the Company or the rights and conditions attaching thereto or to affect the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any sale or

	 	b.	In the event that a US Participant’s Units are set to Expire during a black-out period, such expiry date shall be automatically extended for ten (10) Business Days after the expiry of the black-out period
following the date the relevant black-out period is lifted, terminated or removed, in accordance with Sections 3.3(4) and 3.3(5) of the Plan; provided, however, that in no event shall such extension result in the settlement of the Units beyond the
latest date permitted by Code Section 409A.

	 	b.	In the event of a Substitution Event that constitutes a Change of Control Event, (i) all outstanding Units that are treated as non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A shall become fully
vested (at 100% of target to the extent that any Performance Criteria are applicable to the Units) and shall be settled within 5 days after the occurrence thereof in the same form (and proportions) of consideration as received by the Shareholders
and (ii) with respect to Units that are not treated as non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, the Board may decide to (1) accelerate the vesting and settlement of such Units, (2) cause the acquiring or
surviving company or a parent to assume such Units or issue replacement awards on substantially the same terms and having substantially the same economic value (as determined by the Board) or (3) take such other action with respect to such
Units as the Board determines to be appropriate, provided that such action complies with Code Section 409A. 

  

	 	c.	In the event of a Substitution Event that does not constitute a Change of Control Event, (i) the Board may determine to vest, in whole or in part, outstanding Units that are treated as non-qualified deferred
compensation under Code Section 409A, but the Board may not accelerate the settlement date of any such Units (nor may the acceleration of the vesting of any such Units result in the acceleration of the settlement date of such Units) and
(ii) with respect to Units that are not treated as non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A, the Board may decide to (1) accelerate the vesting and settlement of such Units, (2) cause the acquiring or surviving
company or a parent to assume such Units or issue replacement awards on substantially the same terms and having substantially the same economic value (as determined by the Board) or (3) take such other action with respect to such Units as the
Board determines to be appropriate, provided that such action complies with Code Section 409A. In addition, upon the occurrence of an event described in this Section 5(c), the Board may take the action described in clause (ii)(2) of the
preceding sentence with respect to Units that are treated as non-qualified deferred compensation under Code Section 409A to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A.

	6.	Code Section 409A 

  

	 	a.	The Plan and all Units are intended to comply with, or be exempt from, Code Section 409A and all regulations, guidance, compliance programs and other interpretative authority thereunder, and shall be interpreted in
a manner consistent therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in the event any Unit is subject to Code Section 409A, the Board may, in its sole discretion and without a US Participant’s prior consent, amend the
Plan and/or Unit, adopt policies and procedures, or take any other actions as deemed appropriate by the Board to (i) exempt the Plan and/or any Unit from the application of Code Section 409A, (ii) preserve the intended tax treatment
of any such Unit or (iii) comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A. In the event that a US Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, and a payment or benefit provided for
under the Plan would be subject to additional tax under Code Section 409A if such payment or benefit is paid within six (6) months after such US Participant’s Separation From Service (within the meaning of Code Section 409A),
then such payment or benefit shall not be paid (or commence) during the six (6) month period immediately following such US Participant’s Separation From Service except as provided in the immediately following sentence. In such an event,
any payments or benefits that would otherwise have been made or provided during such six (6) month period and which would have incurred such additional tax under Code Section 409A shall instead be paid to the US Participant in a lump-sum,
without interest, on the earlier of (i) the first business day of the seventh month following the month in which such US Participant’s Separation From Service occurs or (ii) the tenth business day following such US Participant’s
death. A US Participant’s right to receive any installment payments under the Plan shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate
and distinct payment as permitted under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or in a Grant Agreement to the contrary, neither the Company, any member of the Board nor any Affiliate or Subsidiary shall have any
liability or obligation to any US Participant or any other person for taxes, interest, penalties or fines (including without limitation any of the foregoing resulting from the failure of any Unit granted hereunder to comply with, or be exempt from,
Code Section 409A). Any Unit that is to be settled or paid upon a termination of employment or service and that constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A shall not be paid or settled unless
such termination of employment or service constitutes a Separation From Service.
