 SECTION 4: Miscellaneous 

4 

	4.1	No Right to Employment. Neither the award of Common Stock nor anything else contained in this Agreement or the Plan shall be deemed to limit or restrict the
right of the Corporation to terminate the Grantee’s employment at any time, for any reason, with or without cause. 

  

	4.2	Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Grantee hereby agrees to take any action, and consents to the taking of any
action by the Corporation, with respect to the Common Stock awarded hereunder necessary to achieve compliance with applicable laws or regulations in effect from time to time. Any determination in this connection by the Committee shall be final,
binding and conclusive. The Corporation shall in no event be obligated to register any securities pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 (as the same shall be in effect from time to time) or to take any other affirmative action in order to cause the
award of Common Stock under the Plan, the lapsing of restrictions thereon or the delivery of shares in book-entry form or otherwise therefore to comply with any law or regulation in effect from time to time.

	4.5	Tax Withholding. The Grantee shall be advised by the Corporation as to the amount of any federal, state, local or foreign income or employment taxes required to
be withheld on the compensation income resulting from the award of, or lapse of restrictions on, the Common Stock. The Grantee shall pay any taxes required to be withheld directly to the Corporation in cash upon request; provided, however, that
where the restrictions on Disposition set forth in Section 2.1 hereof have lapsed the Grantee may satisfy such obligation in whole or in part by requesting the Corporation in writing to withhold from the Common Stock otherwise deliverable to
the Grantee or by delivering to the Corporation shares of its Common Stock having a Fair Market Value, on the date the restrictions lapse equal to the amount of the aggregate minimum statutory withholding tax obligation to be so satisfied, in
accordance with such rules as the Compensation Committee may prescribe. The Corporation’s obligation to issue or credit shares to the Grantee is contingent upon the Grantee’s satisfaction of an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal,
state, local or other withholding tax requirements, notwithstanding the lapse of the restrictions thereon. 

  

	4.6	Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, other than any choice of law
provisions calling for the application of laws of another jurisdiction.
