3.1 Selection of Participants. The Committee shall select the Employees who shall be Participants for any Performance Period. The
Committee also may designate as Participants one or more individuals (by name or position) who are expected to become Employees during a Performance Period. Participation in the Plan is in the sole discretion of the Committee and shall be determined
Performance Period by Performance Period. Accordingly, an Employee who is a Participant for a given Performance Period is in no way assured of being selected for participation in any subsequent Performance Period. 

3.2 Determination of Performance Goals. The Committee shall establish the Performance Goals for each Participant for the Performance
Period. Such Performance Goals shall be set forth in writing and shall be based on one or more of the performance metrics set forth in Appendix A attached to the Plan. Any criteria used may be measured (a) in absolute terms, (b) in
relative terms, including (without limitation) the passage of time and/or against other companies or metrics, (c) on a per-share basis, (d) against the performance of the Company as a whole or against particular segments or products of the

3.3 Determination of Target Awards. The Committee shall establish a Target Award for each Participant for each Performance Period. Such
Target Award shall be set forth in writing. 
 3.4 Determination of Payout Formula or Formulae. The Committee shall establish a
Payout Formula or Formulae for purposes of determining the Actual Award (if any) payable to each Participant. Each Payout Formula shall (a) be in writing, (b) be based on a comparison of actual performance to the Performance Goals,
(c) provide for the payment of a Participant’s Target Award if the Performance Goals for the Performance Period are achieved at the predetermined level and (d) provide for the payment of an Actual Award greater than or less than the
Participant’s Target Award, depending upon the extent to which actual performance exceeds or falls below the Performance Goals. 

3.5 Determination of Actual Awards. After the end of each Performance Period or, to the extent that Progress Payments will be made,
after the end of each Progress Period, the Committee shall certify the extent to which the Performance Goals applicable to each Participant for the Performance Period or Progress Period, as applicable, were achieved or exceeded, as determined by the
Committee. The Actual Award for each Participant shall be determined by applying the Payout Formula to the level of actual performance that has been certified by the Committee. Any contrary provision of the Plan notwithstanding, the Committee


  
 3 








 
may (a) reduce or eliminate the Actual Award that otherwise would be payable under the Payout Formula or (b) determine whether or not any Participant will receive an Actual Award or
Progress Payment in the event that the Participant incurs a Termination of Employment before such Actual Award or Progress Payment is to be paid pursuant to Section 4.2. 

3.6 Adjustments. The Committee may adjust the results under any Performance Goal to exclude any of the following events that occurs
during a Performance Period: (a) asset write-downs, (b) litigation, claims, judgments or settlements, (c) the effect of changes in tax law, accounting principles or other such laws or provisions affecting reported results,
(d) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs, (e) mergers or acquisitions and (f) any other extraordinary, unusual or non-recurring items. 

ARTICLE 4. PAYMENT OF AWARDS 

4.1 Right to Receive Payment. Each Actual Award or Progress Payment that may become payable under the Plan shall be paid solely from the
general assets of the Company or the Affiliate that employs the Participant (as the case may be), as determined by the Company. No amounts awarded or accrued under the Plan shall be funded, set aside or otherwise segregated prior to payment. The
obligation to pay Actual Awards or Progress Payments under the Plan shall at all times be an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company. Participants shall have the status of general creditors of the Company or the Affiliate that employs the
Participant. 
 4.2 Timing of Payment. Subject to Section 3.5, payment of each Actual Award or Progress Payment shall be made as
soon as administratively practicable, but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the applicable Performance Period or Progress Period, as the case may be. 

4.3 Form of Payment. Each Actual Award or Progress Payment shall be paid in cash (or its equivalent) in a single lump sum. 

4.4 Payment in the Event of Death. If a Participant dies before receiving an Actual Award or Progress Payment (determined under
Section 3.5) that was scheduled to be paid before his or her death for a prior Performance Period or Progress Period, then the Actual Award or Progress Payment shall be paid to the Participant’s designated beneficiary or, if no beneficiary
has been designated, to the administrator or representative of his or her estate. Any beneficiary designation or revocation of a prior designation shall be effective only if it is in writing, signed by the Participant and received by the Company
prior to the Participant’s death. 
 ARTICLE 5. ADMINISTRATION 

5.1 Committee Authority. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, subject to Section 5.3. The Committee shall have all
powers and discretion necessary or appropriate to administer the Plan and to control its operation, including (without limitation) the power to (a) determine which Employees shall be granted awards, (b) prescribe the terms and conditions
of the awards, (c) interpret the Plan, (d) adopt such procedures and sub-plans as are necessary or appropriate to permit participation in the Plan by Employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States,

authority and powers under the Plan to one or more directors and/or employees of the Company. 
 ARTICLE 6. GENERAL PROVISIONS 

6.1 Tax Withholding. The Company or an Affiliate, as applicable, shall withhold all required taxes from an Actual Award or Progress
Payment, including any federal, state, local or other taxes. 
 6.2 No Effect on Employment. Nothing in the Plan shall interfere with
or limit in any way the right of the Company or an Affiliate, as applicable, to terminate any Participant’s employment or service at any time, with or without cause. Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is on an at-will basis only.
The Company expressly reserves the right, which may be exercised at any time and without regard to when during or after a Performance Period such exercise occurs, to terminate any individual’s employment with or without cause, and to treat him
or her without regard to the effect that such treatment might have upon him or her as a Participant. 
 6.3 No Effect on Other
Benefits. Except as expressly set forth in a Participant’s employment agreement with the Company, any Actual Awards or Progress Payments under the Plan shall not be considered for the purpose of calculating any other benefits to which such
Participant may be entitled, including (a) any termination, severance, redundancy or end-of-service payments, (b) other bonuses or long-service awards, (c) overtime premiums, (d) pension or retirement benefits or (e) future
Base Pay or any other payment to be made by the Company to such Participant. 
 6.4 Successors. All obligations of the Company and
any Affiliate under the Plan, with respect to awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company and/or such Affiliate, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a merger, consolidation, direct or indirect
purchase of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company or such Affiliate, or any similar transaction. 
 6.5
Nontransferability of Awards. No award granted under the Plan shall be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will, by the laws of descent and distribution or to the limited

shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.

such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities markets as may be required.
