first anniversary of the Date of Grant. 
  
  

	1.	 Vesting and Exercisability 


 You cannot exercise the Options until they have vested. 
  

	a.	 Regular Vesting – The Options will vest in accordance with the above schedule (subject to the other terms hereof).

	2.	 Expiration 


 All Options expire on the earlier of (i) the Date of Expiration as stated above or (ii) any of the Special Expiration Dates described below. As an administrative matter, the vested portion of
the Options may be exercised only until the close of the NYSE on the Expiration Date or, as applicable the Special Expiration Date, or, if such date is not a trading day on the NYSE, the last trading day before such date. Any later attempt to
exercise the Options will not be honored as once an Option expires, you no longer have the right to exercise it.

	3.	 Special Vesting Dates and Special Expiration Dates 



There are events that cause your Options to vest sooner than the Regular Vesting schedule discussed above or to expire sooner than the
Date of Expiration as stated above. Those events are as follows: 
  

	a.	 Death – If your service with the Company terminates because of your death, Options that are not vested will automatically become
fully vested upon your death. All your Options will then expire on the earlier of (i) one year following the date of your death; (ii) the occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company; and (iii) the Date of Expiration. Until that
time, with written proof of death and inheritance, the Options will be exercisable by your legal representative, legatees or distributees. 


  

	b.	 Change In Control – If a Change in Control of the Company occurs, all of your unvested Options will be fully vested immediately
prior to the Change in Control and following such Change in Control, all of your Options not exercised as of the Change in Control shall terminate and cease to be outstanding. 



 

	c.	 Termination of Service Because of Disability – If your service with the Company terminates because of your disability, as
determined by the Board, Options that are not vested will automatically become fully vested upon your disability. All your Options will then expire on the earlier of (i) one year following the date of your termination of service; (ii) the
occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company; and (iii) the Date of Expiration. 


  

	d.	 Termination of Service for any Other Reason than Described Above – If your service with the Company terminates for any reason other
than described above, including voluntary resignation of your service, all of your unvested Options will vest on a pro rata basis in an amount equal to (a)(i) the total number of Options subject to this Award, multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of your completed full months of service from the Date of Grant to the date of your termination of service and the denominator of which is the number of full months during the entire vesting period, minus
(b) any Options that vested prior to the date of your termination of service. All of your vested but not yet exercised Options will expire on the earlier of (i) one year following the date of your termination of service; (ii) the
occurrence of a Change in Control of the Company; and (iii) the Date of Expiration. Any Options remaining unvested at the date of your termination of service shall expire at that time. 



 

	4.	 Other Terms 


  

	a.	 Method of Exercising – You must follow the procedures for exercising options established by the Company from time to time. At the
time of exercise, you must pay the Exercise Price for all of the Options being exercised. Options may not be exercised for less than 50 Shares unless the number of Shares represented by the vested portion of the Option is less than 50 Shares, in
which case the Option must be exercised for the full number of whole Shares then subject to the vested portion of the Option. 


  

	b.	 Transferability – Unless the Committee provides in the resolutions authorizing the grant of the Options, the Options are not
transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

underlying the Options. You should note that the future value of the Shares underlying the Options is unknown. If the Shares do not increase in value, the Options will have no value and if you obtain Shares upon exercise of the Options, the value of
those Shares may increase or decrease, including below the Exercise Price. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, legal, and financial advisors regarding your participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the
Plan.
