Omnibus Incentive Plan



 Exhibit 10.1 
 FISERV, INC. 
 2007 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN 
 1.    Purpose and Effective Date. 
 (a)    Purpose.  The Fiserv, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Incentive Plan has two complementary purposes: (i) to attract and retain outstanding individuals to serve as officers, directors, employees and
consultants; and (ii) to increase shareholder value. The Plan will provide participants incentives to increase shareholder value by offering the opportunity to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock, receive monetary payments based
on the value of such common stock, or receive other incentive compensation, on the potentially favorable terms that this Plan provides. 
 (b)    Effective Date.  This Plan will become effective, and Awards may be granted under this Plan, on and after the date that the Plan is approved by the Company’s shareholders (the “Effective
Date”). If the Company’s shareholders approve this Plan, then the Fiserv, Inc. Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan will terminate on the Effective Date and the Fiserv, Inc. Executive Incentive Compensation Plan will terminate on
December 31, 2007, and no new awards may be granted under such plans after their respective termination dates; provided that each such plan shall continue to govern awards outstanding as of the date of such plan’s termination and such
awards shall continue in force and effect until terminated pursuant to their terms.

with the Company within the meaning of Code Sections 414(b) or (c); provided that, in applying such provisions, the phrase “at least 20 percent” shall be used in place of “at least 80 percent” each place it appears therein.

 (c)    “Award” means a grant of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Performance Shares, Performance

13D under the Exchange Act (or any comparable or successor report); or 
 (iii)    which are beneficially owned, directly
or indirectly, by any other Person with which such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates or Associates has had any agreement, arrangement or understanding for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except pursuant to a revocable proxy

involving the Company (or any direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company) shall not be Continuing Directors for purposes of this Agreement until after such individuals are first nominated for election by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of

 (iii)    the shareholders of the Company approve a merger, consolidation or share exchange of the Company with any other corporation
or approve the issuance of voting securities of the Company in connection with a merger, consolidation or share exchange of the Company (or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company) pursuant to applicable stock exchange requirements, other

after such merger, consolidation or share exchange, or (B) a merger, consolidation or share exchange effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no Person (other than an Excluded Person) is or

or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity at least 75% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by persons in substantially the same proportions as their
ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no “Change in Control of the Company” shall be deemed to
have occurred if there is consummated any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the holders of the Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to own, directly

extent that the law and the Company’s by-laws permit. 
 4.    Eligibility.  The Administrator may designate any of
the following as a Participant from time to time, to the extent of the Administrator’s authority: any officer or other employee of the Company or its Affiliates; an individual that the Company or an Affiliate has engaged to become an officer or
employee; a consultant who provides services to the Company or its Affiliates; or a Director, including a Non-Employee Director. The Administrator’s granting of an Award to a Participant will not require the Administrator to grant an Award to
such individual at any future time. The Administrator’s granting of a particular type of Award to a Participant will not require the Administrator to grant any other type of Award to such individual. 
 5.    Types of Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator may grant any type of Award to any Participant it
selects, but only employees of the Company or a Subsidiary may receive grants of incentive stock options within the meaning of Code Section 422. Awards may be granted alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution for any other
Award (or any other award granted under another plan of the Company or any Affiliate). 
 6.    Shares Reserved under this Plan.

 (a)    Plan Reserve.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17, an aggregate of
10,000,000 Shares are reserved for issuance under this Plan. The Shares reserved for issuance may be either authorized and unissued Shares or shares reacquired at any time and now or hereafter held as treasury stock. 
 (b)    Aggregate Award Limits.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17, the Company may issue only an
aggregate of 2,500,000 Shares upon the exercise of incentive stock options and may issue only an aggregate of 4,000,000 Shares pursuant to “full-value awards.” For this purpose, a full-value award includes Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units (valued in relation to a Share), and any other similar Award under which the value of the Award is measured as the full value of a Share, rather than the increase in the value of a Share.

 (c)    Replenishment of Shares Under this Plan.  The aggregate number of Shares reserved under
Section 6(a) shall be depleted by the number of Shares with respect to which an Award is granted. If, however, an Award lapses, expires, terminates or is cancelled without the issuance of Shares under the Award, or if Shares are forfeited under
an Award, or if Shares are issued under any Award and the Company subsequently reacquires them pursuant to rights reserved upon the issuance of the Shares, then such Shares may again be used for new Awards under this Plan under Section 6(a) and
Section 6(b), but such Shares may not be issued pursuant to incentive stock options. 
 (d)    Participant
Limitations.  Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 17, no Participant may be granted Awards that could result in such Participant: 
  

	 	(i)	receiving Options for, and/or Stock Appreciation Rights with respect to, more than 500,000 Shares during any fiscal year of the Company; 

  

	 	(ii)	receiving Awards of Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Units relating to more than 120,000 Shares during any fiscal year of the Company; 

  

	 	(iii)	receiving Awards of Performance Shares, and/or Awards of Performance Units the value of which is based on the Fair Market Value of Shares, for more than 120,000 Shares during any
fiscal year of the Company; 

  

 6 









	 	(iv)	receiving Awards of Performance Units, the value of which is not based on the Fair Market Value of Shares, for more than $3,000,000 during any fiscal year of the Company;


  

	 	(v)	receiving other Stock-based Awards pursuant to Section 13 relating to more than 120,000 Shares during any fiscal year of the Company; 

  

	 	(vi)	receiving an Annual Incentive Award in any single fiscal year of the Company that would pay more than $3,000,000; or 

  

	 	(vii)	receiving a Long-Term Incentive Award in any single fiscal year of the Company that would pay more than $6,000,000. 

 In all cases, determinations under this Section 6(d) should be made in a manner that is consistent with the exemption for performance based compensation that Code
Section 162(m) provides. 
 7.    Options.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all
terms and conditions of each Option, including but not limited to: (i) whether the Option is an “incentive stock option” which meets the requirements of Code Section 422, or a “nonqualified stock option” which does not
meet the requirements of Code Section 422; (ii) the number of Shares subject to the Option; (iii) the exercise price, which may not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Option as determined on the date of
grant; (iv) the terms and conditions of exercise; and (v) the term, except that an Option must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant. In all other respects, the terms of any incentive stock option should
comply with the provisions of Code section 422 except to the extent the Administrator determines otherwise. If an Option that is intended to be an incentive stock option fails to meet the requirements thereof, the Option shall automatically be
treated as a nonqualified stock option to the extent of such failure. 
 8.    Stock Appreciation Rights.  Subject to
the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each SAR, including but not limited to: (a) whether the SAR is granted independently of an Option or relates to an Option; (b) the number of Shares to
which the SAR relates; (c) the grant price, provided that the grant price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the SAR as determined on the date of grant; (d) the terms and conditions of exercise or
maturity; (e) the term, provided that an SAR must terminate no later than ten (10) years after the date of grant; and (f) whether the SAR will be settled in cash, Shares or a combination thereof. If an SAR is granted in relation to an
Option, then unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, the SAR shall be exercisable or shall mature at the same time or times, on the same conditions and to the extent and in the proportion, that the related Option is exercisable and may be
exercised or mature for all or part of the Shares subject to the related Option. Upon exercise of any number of SAR, the number of Shares subject to the related Option shall be reduced accordingly and such Option may not be exercised with respect to
that number of Shares. The exercise of any number of Options that relate to an SAR shall likewise result in an equivalent reduction in the number of Shares covered by the related SAR. 
 9.    Performance and Stock Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Restricted Stock, Restricted
Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Units, including but not limited to: (a) the number of Shares and/or units to which such Award relates; (b) whether, as a condition for the Participant to realize all or a portion of the
benefit provided under the Award, one or more Performance Goals must be achieved during such period as the Administrator specifies; (c) whether the restrictions imposed on Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall lapse, and all or a
portion of the Performance Goals subject to an Award shall be deemed achieved, upon a Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement; (d) with respect to Performance Units, whether to measure the value of each unit in relation to a
designated dollar value or the Fair Market Value of one or more Shares; and (e) with respect to Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units, whether to settle such Awards in cash, in Shares, or a combination thereof. 
 10.    Annual Incentive Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of an
Annual Incentive Award, including but not limited to the Performance Goals, performance

period, the potential amount payable, and the timing of payment, subject to the following: (a) the Administrator must require that payment of all or any
portion of the amount subject to the Annual Incentive Award is contingent on the achievement of one or more Performance Goals during the period the Administrator specifies, although the Administrator may specify that all or a portion of the
Performance Goals subject to an Award are deemed achieved upon a Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement, or such other circumstances as the Administrator may specify; and (b) the performance period must relate to a period of one
fiscal year of the Company except that, if the Award is made in the year this Plan becomes effective, at the time of commencement of employment with the Company or on the occasion of a promotion, then the Award may relate to a period shorter than
one fiscal year. 
 11.    Long-Term Incentive Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will
determine all terms and conditions of a Long-Term Incentive Award, including but not limited to the Performance Goals, performance period, the potential amount payable, and the timing of payment, subject to the following: (a) the Administrator
must require that payment of all or any portion of the amount subject to the Long-Term Incentive Award is contingent on the achievement of one or more Performance Goals during the period the Administrator specifies, although the Administrator may
specify that all or a portion of the Performance Goals subject to an Award are deemed achieved upon a Participant’s death, Disability or Retirement, or such other circumstances as the Administrator may specify; and (b) the performance
period must relate to a period of more than one fiscal year of the Company. 
 12.    Dividend Equivalent
Units.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator will determine all terms and conditions of each award of Dividend Equivalent Units, including but not limited to whether: (a) such Award will be granted in tandem with
another Award; (b) payment of the Award be made currently or credited to an account for the Participant which provides for the deferral of such amounts until a stated time; and (c) the Award will be settled in cash or Shares; provided that
any Dividend Equivalent Units granted in connection with an Option, Stock Appreciation Right or other “stock right” within the meaning of Code Section 409A shall be set forth in a written arrangement that is separate from such Award,
and to the extent the payment of such dividend equivalents is considered deferred compensation, such written arrangement shall comply with the provisions of Code Section 409A. 
 13.    Other Stock-Based Awards.  Subject to the terms of this Plan, the Administrator may grant to Participants other types of Awards, which may be denominated or payable in,
valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on, Shares, either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other Awards, and payable in Stock or cash. Without limitation, such Award may include the issuance of shares of
unrestricted Stock, which may be awarded in payment of director fees, in lieu of cash compensation, in exchange for cancellation of a compensation right, as a bonus, or upon the attainment of Performance Goals or otherwise, or rights to acquire
Stock from the Company. The Administrator shall determine all terms and conditions of the Award, including but not limited to, the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, and the number of Shares to be granted pursuant to such Awards or to
which such Award shall relate; provided that any Award that provides for purchase rights shall be priced at 100% of Fair Market Value on the date of the Award. 
 14.    Transferability.  Awards are not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, unless and to the extent the Administrator allows a Participant to: (a) designate in
writing a beneficiary to exercise the Award or receive payment under an Award after the Participant’s death; or (b) transfer an Award for no consideration.

the requirements of this Plan, the Administrator may modify, amend or cancel any Award, or waive any restrictions or conditions applicable to any Award or the exercise of the Award; provided that any modification or amendment that materially
diminishes the rights of the Participant, or the cancellation of the Award, shall be effective only if agreed to by the Participant or any other person(s) as may then have an interest in the Award, but the Administrator need not obtain Participant
(or other interested party) consent for the adjustment or cancellation of an Award pursuant to the provisions of Section 17 or the modification of an Award to the extent deemed necessary to comply with any applicable law, the listing
requirements of any principal securities exchange or market on which the Shares are then traded, or to preserve favorable accounting or tax treatment of any Award for the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless determined otherwise by the
Administrator, any such amendment shall be made in a manner that will enable an Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A to continue to be so exempt, or to enable an Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A to continue to
so comply. 
 (d)    Survival of Authority and Awards.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the authority of
the Board and the Administrator under this Section 15 and to otherwise administer the Plan will extend beyond the date of this Plan’s termination. In addition, termination of this Plan will not affect the rights of Participants with
respect to Awards previously granted to them, and all unexpired Awards will continue in force and effect after termination of this Plan except as they may lapse or be terminated by their own terms and conditions. 
 (e)    Repricing and Backdating Prohibited.  Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, and except for
the adjustments provided in Section 17, neither the Administrator nor any other person may decrease the exercise price for any outstanding Option or SAR after the date of grant nor allow a Participant to surrender an outstanding Option or SAR
to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Option or SAR with a lower exercise price. In addition, the Administrator may not make a grant of an Option or SAR with a grant date that is effective prior to the date the Administrator takes
action to approve such Award. 
 (f)    Foreign Participation.  To assure the viability of Awards
granted to Participants employed or residing in foreign countries, the Administrator may provide for such special terms as it may consider necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom. Moreover, the
Administrator may approve such supplements to, or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of, this Plan as it determines is necessary or appropriate for such purposes. Any such amendment, restatement or alternative versions that the
Administrator approves for purposes of using this Plan in a foreign country will not affect the terms of this Plan for any other country. In addition, all such supplements, amendments, restatements or alternative versions must comply with the
provisions of Section 15(b)(ii). 
 (g)    Code Section 409A.  The provisions of Code
Section 409A are incorporated herein by reference to the extent necessary for any Award that is subject to Code Section 409A to comply therewith.

 16.    Taxes. 
 (a)    Withholding.  In the event the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is required to withhold any Federal, state or local taxes or other amounts in respect of any income
recognized by a Participant as a result of the grant, vesting, payment or settlement of an Award or disposition of any Shares acquired under an Award, the Company may deduct (or require an Affiliate to deduct) from any payments of any kind otherwise
due the Participant cash, or with the consent of the Committee, Shares otherwise deliverable or vesting under an Award, to satisfy such tax obligations. Alternatively, the Company may require such Participant to pay to the Company, in cash, promptly
on demand, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment to the Company of the aggregate amount of any such taxes and other amounts. If Shares are deliverable upon exercise or payment of an Award, the Committee may
permit a Participant to satisfy all or a portion of the Federal, state and local withholding tax obligations arising in connection with such Award by electing to (a) have the Company withhold Shares otherwise issuable under the Award,
(b) tender back Shares received in connection with such Award, or (c) deliver other previously owned Shares; provided that the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total minimum federal, state and local tax withholding obligations
associated with the transaction to the extent needed for the Company to avoid an accounting charge. If an election is provided, the election must be made on or before the date as of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined and otherwise
as the Committee requires. In any case, the Company may defer making payment or delivery under any Award if any such tax may be pending unless and until indemnified to its satisfaction. 
 (b)    No Guarantee of Tax Treatment.  Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan, the Company does not guarantee to
any Participant or any other Person with an interest in an Award that (i) any Award intended to be exempt from Code Section 409A shall be so exempt, (ii) any Award intended to comply with Code Section 409A or Code
Section 422 shall so comply, (iii) any Award shall otherwise receive a specific tax treatment under any other applicable tax law, nor in any such case will the Company or any Affiliate indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with
respect to the tax consequences of any Award. 
 17.    Adjustment Provisions; Change of Control. 
 (a)    Adjustment of Shares.  If: (i) the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger or other
transaction in which the Shares are changed or exchanged; (ii) the Company shall subdivide or combine the Shares or the Company shall declare a dividend payable in Shares, other securities (other than preferred stock purchase rights issued
pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Shareholder Rights Agreement, dated as of February 24, 1998, as amended from time to time, or any successor to such Rights Agreement, or any similar stock purchase rights that the Company may
authorize and issue in the future) or other property; (iii) the Company shall effect a cash dividend the amount of which, on a per Share basis, exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share at the time the dividend is
declared, or the Company shall effect any other dividend or other distribution on the Shares in the form of cash, or a repurchase of Shares, that the Board determines by resolution is special or extraordinary in nature or that is in connection with
a transaction that the Company characterizes publicly as a recapitalization or reorganization involving the Shares; or (iv) any other event shall occur, which, in the case of this clause (iv), in the judgment of the Board or Committee
necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable to prevent dilution or
enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, adjust as applicable: (A) the number and type of Shares subject to this Plan (including the number and type of Shares described in Sections 6(a),
(b) and (d)) and which may after the event be made the subject of Awards; (B) the number and type of Shares subject to outstanding Awards; (C) the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any Award; and (D) to the
extent such discretion does not cause an Award that is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m) to lose its status as such, the Performance Goals of an Award. In each case, with respect to Awards of
incentive stock options, no such adjustment may be authorized to the extent that such authority would cause this Plan to violate Code Section 422(b). Without limitation, in the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or
other similar corporate transaction or event, 

  

 10 








 
whether or not constituting a Change of Control (other than any such transaction in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the
outstanding Stock is not being converted into or exchanged for different securities, cash or other property, or any combination thereof), the Administrator may substitute, on an equitable basis as the Administrator determines, for each Share then
subject to an Award and the Shares subject to this Plan (if the Plan will continue in effect), the number and kind of shares of stock, other securities, cash or other property to which holders of Stock are or will be entitled in respect of each
Share pursuant to the transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a stock dividend (other than a stock dividend declared in lieu of an ordinary cash dividend) or subdivision or combination of the Shares (including a reverse stock
split), if no action is taken by the Administrator, adjustments contemplated by this subsection that are proportionate shall nevertheless automatically be made as of the date of such stock dividend or subdivision or combination of the Shares.

 (b)    Issuance or Assumption.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, and without
affecting the number of Shares otherwise reserved or available under this Plan, in connection with any merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, or reorganization, the Administrator may authorize the issuance or assumption of awards
under this Plan upon such terms and conditions as it may deem appropriate. 
 (c)    Change of
Control.  If the Participant has in effect an employment, retention, change of control, severance or similar agreement with the Company or any Affiliate that discusses the effect of a Change of Control on the Participant’s Awards,
then such agreement shall control. In all other cases, unless provided otherwise in an Award agreement, in the event of a Change of Control: 
 (i)    The successor or purchaser in the Change of Control transaction may assume an Award or provide a substitute award with similar terms and conditions, and preserving the same benefits, as the Award it is replacing.

 (ii)    If the successor or purchaser in the Change of Control transaction does not assume the Awards or issue
replacement awards as provided in clause (i), then unless otherwise determined by the Board prior to the date of the Change of Control, immediately prior to the date of the Change of Control: 
 (A)    each Option or SAR that is then held by a Participant who is employed by or in the service of the Company or an Affiliate
shall become immediately and fully vested, and all Options and SARs shall be cancelled on the date of the Change of Control in exchange for a cash payment equal to the excess of the Change of Control price of the Shares covered by the Option or SAR
that is so cancelled over the purchase or grant price of such Shares under the Award; 
 (B)    Restricted Stock and
Restricted Stock Units that are not then vested shall vest; 
 (C)    all Performance Shares and/or Performance Units
that are earned but not yet paid shall be paid in cash in an amount equal to the value of the Performance Share and/or Performance Unit, and all Performance Shares and Performance Units for which the performance period has not expired shall be
cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the product of the value of the Performance Share and/or Performance Unit and a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months that have elapsed from the beginning of the performance
period to which the Award is subject to the date of the Change of Control and the denominator of which is the number of whole months in the performance period; 
 (D)    all Annual and Long-Term Incentive Awards that are earned but not yet paid shall be paid, and all Annual and Long-Term Incentive Awards that are not yet earned shall be cancelled in exchange
for a cash payment in an amount determined by taking the product of: (1) the amount that would have been due under such Award(s) if the Performance Goals (as measured at the time of the Change of Control) were to continue to be achieved at the
same rate through the end of the performance period; and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of whole months that have elapsed from the beginning of the performance period to which the Award 

  

 11 








 
is subject to the date of the Change of Control and the denominator of which is the number of whole months in the performance period; and 
 (E)    all Dividend Equivalent Units that are not vested shall vest and be paid in cash, and all other Awards that are not vested
shall vest and if an amount is payable under such vested Award, such amount shall be paid in cash based on the value of the Award. 
 If the value of an
Award is based on the Fair Market Value of a Share, Fair Market Value shall be deemed to mean the per share Change of Control price. The Administrator shall determine the per share Change of Control price paid or deemed paid in the Change of Control
transaction. 
 Except as otherwise expressly provided in any agreement between a Participant and the Company or an Affiliate, if the receipt of any payment
by a Participant under the circumstances described above would result in the payment by the Participant of any excise tax provided for in Section 280G and Section 4999 of the Code, then the amount of such payment shall be reduced to the
extent required to prevent the imposition of such excise tax. 
 18.    Miscellaneous. 
 (a)    Other Terms and Conditions.   The grant of any Award may also be subject to other provisions (whether or not
applicable to the Award granted to any other Participant) as the Administrator determines appropriate, including, without limitation, provisions for: 
 (i)    the payment of the purchase price of Options by delivery of cash or other Shares or other securities of the Company (including by attestation) having a then Fair Market Value equal to the
purchase price of such Shares, or by delivery (including by fax) to the Company or its designated agent of an executed irrevocable option exercise form together with irrevocable instructions to a broker dealer to sell or margin a sufficient portion
of the Shares and deliver the sale or margin loan proceeds directly to the Company to pay for the exercise price; 
 (ii)    restrictions on resale or other disposition of Shares; and 
 (iii)    compliance
with federal or state securities laws and stock exchange requirements. 
 (b)    Employment and
Service.  The issuance of an Award shall not confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continued employment or service with the Company or any Affiliate, or the right to continue as a Director. Unless determined otherwise by
the Administrator, for purposes of the Plan and all Awards, the following rules shall apply: 
 (i)    a Participant who
transfers employment between the Company and its Affiliates, or between Affiliates, will not be considered to have terminated employment; 
 (ii)    a Participant who ceases to be a Non-Employee Director because he or she becomes an employee of the Company or an Affiliate shall not be considered to have ceased service as a Director with respect to any Award
until such Participant’s termination of employment with the Company and its Affiliates; 
 (iii)    a Participant
who ceases to be employed by the Company or an Affiliate and immediately thereafter becomes a Non-Employee Director, a non-employee director of an Affiliate, or a consultant to the Company or any Affiliate shall not be considered to have terminated
employment until such Participant’s service as a director of, or consultant to, the Company and its Affiliates has ceased; and 
 (iv)    a Participant employed by an Affiliate will be considered to have terminated employment when such entity ceases to be an Affiliate. 
  

 12 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of an Award that is subject to Code Section 409A, if a
Participant’s termination of employment or service triggers the payment of compensation under such Award, then the Participant will be deemed to have terminated employment or service upon his or her “separation from service” within
the meaning of Code Section 409A. 
 (c)    No Fractional Shares.  No fractional Shares or other
securities may be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan, and the Administrator may determine whether cash, other securities or other property will be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares or other securities, or whether such
fractional Shares or other securities or any rights to fractional Shares or other securities will be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated. 
 (d)    Unfunded Plan.  This Plan is unfunded and does not create, and should not be construed to create, a trust or separate fund with respect to this Plan’s benefits. This Plan does not establish
any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of an Award granted under this Plan, such rights are no greater than the rights of the Company’s general
unsecured creditors. 
 (e)    Requirements of Law and Securities Exchange.  The granting of Awards and
the issuance of Shares in connection with an Award are subject to all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Plan or any award agreement, the Company has no liability to deliver any Shares under this Plan or make any payment unless such delivery or payment would comply with all applicable laws and the applicable requirements of any securities
exchange or similar entity, and unless and until the Participant has taken all actions required by the Company in connection therewith. The Company may impose such restrictions on any Shares issued under the Plan as the Company determines necessary
or desirable to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations or the requirements of any national securities exchanges. 
 (f)    Governing Law.  This Plan, and all agreements under this Plan, will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, without reference to any conflict of law
principles. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, may only be heard in a
“bench” trial, and any party to such action or proceeding shall agree to waive its right to a jury trial. 
 (g)    Limitations on Actions.  Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Plan, any Award or any award agreement, must be brought within one year (365 days) after the day the complaining party
first knew or should have known of the events giving rise to the complaint. 
 (h)    Construction.  Whenever any words are used herein in the masculine, they shall be construed as though they were used in the feminine in all cases where they would so apply; and wherever any words
are used in the singular or plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the plural or singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they would so apply. Title of sections are for general information only, and this Plan is not to
be construed with reference to such titles. 
 (i)    Severability.  If any provision of this Plan or
any award agreement or any Award (a) is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or (b) would disqualify this Plan, any award agreement or any Award under any law
the Administrator deems applicable, then such provision should be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Administrator, materially altering
the intent of this Plan, award agreement or Award, then such provision should be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of this Plan, such award agreement and such Award will remain in full force and effect.
