Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2 or otherwise in this Agreement to the contrary, the Grantee acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the restrictive covenant terms, conditions and provisions in the Non-Competition Agreement as a "Grantee" as referred to therein.


3.Restrictions on Transfer of PSUs.

(d)(i)         Notwithstanding Section 4(a) or Section 4(c) above, if at any time before the Committee Determination Date or forfeiture of the PSUs, and while the Grantee is continuously employed by the Company or a Subsidiary, a Change in Control occurs, provided that the PSUs have not previously been forfeited or become nonforfeitable at such time, then (except to the extent that a Replacement Award is provided to the Grantee in accordance with Section 4(d)(ii) to continue, replace or assume the PSUs covered by this Agreement (the "Replaced Award")) the PSUs will become nonforfeitable and payable to the Grantee in accordance with Section 5 hereof as follows (notwithstanding anything in the Statement of Management Objectives to the contrary): (A) the Performance Period will be deemed to have ended on the date of the Change in Control (the "CIC Measurement Date"); (B) the Earned PSUs will be determined based on RTSR achievement from the start of the Performance Period through the CIC Measurement Date based on the S&P600® Industrials Index as constituted on the first day of the Performance Period; (C) the ending stock price for Total Stockholder Return determination purposes will be based on the average closing stock price for the 30 calendar days immediately preceding the CIC Measurement Date on the principal stock exchange on which the stock then trades; and (D) the Earned PSUs will be determined on the date of the Change in Control.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Replacement Award may take the form of a continuation of the Replaced Award if the requirements of the two preceding sentences are satisfied. The determination of whether the conditions of this Section 4(d)(ii) are satisfied will be made by the Committee, as constituted immediately before the Change in Control, in its sole discretion.


(iii)If, upon receiving a Replacement Award, the Grantee's employment with the Company or a Subsidiary (or any of their successors) (as applicable, the "Successor") is subsequently terminated by the Grantee for Good Reason or by the Successor without Cause within a period of two years after the Change in Control, 100% of the Replacement Award will become nonforfeitable and payable with respect to the performance-based restricted stock units covered by such Replacement Award.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantee's termination of the Grantee's employment with the Successor as a result of the occurrence of any of the foregoing shall not constitute a termination for "Good Reason" unless (X) the Grantee gives the Successor written notice of such occurrence within 90 days of such occurrence and such occurrence is not cured by the Successor within 30 days of the date on which such written notice is received by the Successor and (Y) the Grantee actually terminates his

(e)The PSUs shall be forfeited to the extent they fail to become nonforfeitable as of the Committee Determination Date and, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, if the Grantee ceases to be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary at any time prior to such PSUs becoming nonforfeitable, or to the extent they are forfeited under Section 16 hereof.


5.Form and Time of Payment of Earned PSUs.


(a)Payment for the PSUs, after and to the extent they have become nonforfeitable, shall be made in the form of shares of Common Stock. Payment shall be made within 70 days following the date that the PSUs become nonforfeitable pursuant to Section 4 hereof.


(b)Except to the extent provided by Section 409A of the Code and permitted by the Committee, no Common Stock may be issued to the Grantee at a time earlier than otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.

5 hereof or (ii) the time when the Grantee's right to receive Common Stock in payment of the PSUs is forfeited in accordance with Section 4 hereof, on the date that the Company pays a cash dividend (if any) to holders of Common Stock generally, the Grantee shall become entitled to receive (subject to the following sentence) a number of additional whole PSUs determined by dividing (x) the product of (1) the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Common Stock on such date and (2) the total number of PSUs (including dividend equivalents) previously credited to the Grantee as of such date, by (y) the Market Value per Share on such date. Such dividend equivalents (if any) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions and shall be paid or forfeited in the same manner and at the same time as the PSUs to which the dividend equivalents were credited.


(c)The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to deliver shares of Common Stock in the future, and the rights of the Grantee will be no greater than that of an unsecured general creditor. No assets of the Company will be held or set aside as security for the obligations of the Company under this Agreement.


8.Adjustments. The PSUs and their terms under this Agreement are subject to mandatory adjustment under the terms of Section 11 of the Plan.


9.Withholding Taxes. To the extent that the Company is required to withhold federal, state, local or foreign taxes in connection with the delivery to the Grantee of Common Stock or any other payment to the Grantee or any other payment or vesting event under this Agreement, the Grantee hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Grantee, including amounts payable hereunder, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for, any sums required to satisfy such tax withholding obligations of the Company. The Company shall have no obligation to make delivery or payment hereunder until the tax withholding obligations of the Company have been satisfied by the Grantee. If all or any part of such withholding requirement be satisfied by retention by the Company of a portion of the Common Stock to be delivered to the Grantee or by delivering to the Company other shares of Common Stock held by the Grantee, the shares so retained shall be credited against such withholding requirement at the Market Value per Share of such Common Stock on the date of such delivery. In no event will the market value of the Common Stock to be withheld and/or delivered pursuant to this Section 9 to satisfy applicable withholding taxes exceed the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld, unless otherwise agreed to by the Grantee, provided, however, that such amount shall not exceed the statutory maximum withholding rates.


10.Compliance With Law. The Company shall make reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws; provided, however, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan and this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if the issuance thereof would result in a violation of any such law.

11.Compliance With Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, it is intended that this Agreement and the Plan comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement and the Plan shall be administered in a manner consistent with this intent, and any provision that would cause this Agreement or the Plan to fail to satisfy Section 409A of the Code shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A of the Code and may be made by the Company without the consent of the Grantee).


12.Interpretation. Any reference in this Agreement to Section 409A of the Code will also include any proposed, temporary or final regulations, or any other guidance, promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, capitalized terms used herein will have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.


13.No Employment Rights. The grant of the PSUs under this Agreement to the Grantee is a voluntary, discretionary award being made on a one-time basis and it does not constitute a commitment to make any future awards. The grant of the PSUs and any payments made hereunder will not be considered salary or other compensation for purposes of any severance pay or similar allowance, except as otherwise required by law. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon the Grantee any right to be employed or remain employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor limit or affect in any manner the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate the employment or adjust the compensation of the Grantee.


14.Relation to Other Benefits. Any economic or other benefit to the Grantee under this Agreement or the Plan shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits to which the Grantee may be entitled under any profit-sharing, retirement or other benefit or compensation plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and shall not affect the amount of any life insurance coverage available to any beneficiary under any life insurance plan covering employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.


15.Amendments. Any amendment to the Plan shall be deemed to be an amendment to this Agreement to the extent that the amendment is applicable hereto; provided, however, that (a) no amendment shall adversely affect the rights of the Grantee under this Agreement without the Grantee's written consent, and (b) the Grantee's consent shall not be required to an amendment that is deemed necessary by the Company to ensure compliance with Section 409A of the Code.


16.Severability. In the event that one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be invalidated for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, any provision so invalidated shall be deemed to be separable from the other provisions hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall continue to be valid and fully enforceable.

EXHIBIT B


Additional Terms and Conditions for International Employees


TERMS AND CONDITIONS


This Exhibit B (this "Exhibit"), which is part of the Agreement, contains additional terms and conditions that govern the PSUs granted to the Grantee under the Plan if he or she resides outside the United States. The terms and conditions in Part A apply to all Grantees outside the United States. The country-specific terms and conditions and/or notifications in Part B will also apply to the Grantee if he or she resides in one of the countries listed below. Unless otherwise defined, capitalized terms used but not defined in this Exhibit have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or the Agreement.


NOTIFICATIONS


This Exhibit also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which the Grantee should be aware with respect to participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the respective countries as of November 2017. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that the Grantee not rely on the information in this Exhibit as the only source of information relating to the consequences of his or her participation in the Plan because the information may be out of date at the time that the Grantee vests in the PSUs or sell shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan.


In addition, the information contained herein is general in nature and may not apply to the Grantee's particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure the Grantee of a particular result. Accordingly, the Grantee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in his or her country may apply to the Grantee's situation.


Finally, if the Grantee is a citizen or resident, or is considered a resident, of a country other than the one in which he or she is currently working, or transferred employment after the PSUs were granted to him or her, the information contained herein may not be applicable. In addition, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the additional terms and conditions included herein will apply to you under these circumstances.


A.ALL NON-U.S. COUNTRIES ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS


The following additional terms and conditions will apply to the Grantee if he or she resides in any country outside the United States.


Responsibility for Taxes. The following section replaces Section 9 of the Agreement in its entirety:


- 16 -








010-8970-2145/1/AMERICAS






The Grantee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, the Grantee's employer (the "Employer"), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Grantee's participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Grantee ("Tax-Related Items") is and remains the Grantee's responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. The Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the PSU, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the PSUs, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the PSUs to reduce or eliminate the Grantee's liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if the Grantee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Date of Grant and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.


Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, the Grantee agrees to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all Tax- Related Items. In this regard, the Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following methods: (i) requiring payment by the Grantee to the Company, on demand, by cash, check or other method of payment as may be determined acceptable by the Company; or (ii) withholding from the Grantee's wages or other cash compensation paid to the Grantee by the Company and/or the Employer; or (iii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired at vesting of the PSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on the Grantee's behalf pursuant to this authorization) without further consent; or (iv) withholding shares of Common Stock issuable at vesting of the PSUs.


Depending on the withholding method, the Company and/or the Employer may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case the Grantee will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in shares of Common Stock, for tax purposes, the Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Common Stock subject to the vested PSUs, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Common Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.


Finally, the Grantee agrees to pay the Company or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of the Grantee's participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied 
- 17 -








010-8970-2145/1/AMERICAS






by the means previously described. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares or the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock, if the Grantee fails to comply with the Grantee's obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.


Nature of Grant. In accepting the grant, the Grantee acknowledges, understands and agrees that: (1) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan; (2) all decisions with respect to future PSU or other grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (3) the Grantee is voluntarily participating in the Plan; (4) the PSU and the shares of Common Stock subject to the PSU are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (5) the future value of the underlying shares of Common Stock is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty; (6) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the PSUs resulting from the termination of the Grantee's employment or other service relationship (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Grantee is employed or the terms of the Grantee's employment agreement, if any), and in consideration of the grant of the PSUs to which the Grantee is otherwise not entitled, the Grantee irrevocably agrees never to institute any claim against the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Employer, waives the Grantee's ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and releases the Company, its Subsidiaries and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction, then, by participating in the Plan, the Grantee shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claim; (7) for purposes of the PSUs, the Grantee's employment or service relationship will be considered terminated as of the date the Grantee is no longer actively providing services to the Company or one of its Subsidiaries (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Grantee is employed or providing services or the terms of the Grantee's employment or service agreement, if any) and unless otherwise expressly provided in these Terms and Conditions or determined by the Company, the Grantee's right to vest in the PSUs under the Plan, if any, will terminate as of such date and will not be extended by any notice period (e.g., the Grantee's period of service would not include any contractual notice period or any period of "garden leave" or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Grantee is employed or providing services or the terms of the Grantee's employment or service agreement, if any); the Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Grantee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Grantee's PSU grant (including whether the Grantee may still be considered to be providing services while on an approved leave of absence); (8) unless otherwise provided in the Plan or by the Company in its discretion, the PSUs and the benefits evidenced by these Terms and Conditions do not create any entitlement to have the PSUs or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company; (9) the PSUs and the shares of Common Stock subject to the PSUs, and the income and value of same, are not part of normal or expected compensation for any purpose, including, without limitation,

010-8970-2145/1/AMERICAS






calculating severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments; and (10) the Grantee acknowledges and agrees that neither the Company, the Employer nor any subsidiary or affiliate of the Company shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between the Grantee's local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the PSUs or of any amounts due to the Grantee pursuant to the settlement of the PSUs or the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock acquired upon settlement.


No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Grantee's participation in the Plan, or the Grantee's acquisition or sale of the underlying shares of Common Stock. The Grantee is hereby advised to consult with the Grantee's own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding the Grantee's participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.


Data Privacy for Grantees not based in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom 


The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, including email, of the Grantee's personal data as described in the Agreement and any other PSU grant materials ("Data") by and among, as applicable, the Employer, the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee's participation in the Plan.
The Grantee understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, the Grantee's name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all PSUs or any other entitlement to shares of stock awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee's favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan.
The Grantee understands that Data will be transferred to the Company's stock transfer agent and/or broker, or such other stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Company in the future, which is assisting the Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The Grantee understands that the recipients of the Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere (including outside the EEA), and that the recipients' country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than the Grantee's country. The Grantee understands that the Grantee may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting the Grantee's local human resources representative. The Grantee authorizes the Company, the Company's stock transfer agent and/or broker, and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for the sole purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee's participation in the Plan. The Grantee understands that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Grantee's participation in the Plan. The 
- 19 -

Grantee understands that the Grantee may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Grantee's local human resources representative. Further, the Grantee understands that the Grantee is providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Grantee does not consent, or if the Grantee later seeks to revoke the Grantee's consent, the Grantee's employment status or service and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing the Grantee's consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Grantee PSUs or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. Therefore, the Grantee understands that refusing or withdrawing the Grantee's consent may affect the Grantee's ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of the Grantee's refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, the Grantee understands that the Grantee may contact the Grantee's local human resources representative.


Data Privacy for Grantees based in the European Economic Area (including the United Kingdom)

The Grantee understands and acknowledges that the processing of their data by the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates in relation to the operation of the Plan is necessary  for (i) the performance of the Agreement; (ii) to comply with any legal obligation in relation to the operation of the Plan; and (iii) to account for any tax and duties in relation to the Plan.

The Grantee understands that the Company is under no obligation to register or qualify the shares with the SEC or any state or foreign securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the shares. Further, the Grantee agrees that Company shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and the Agreement without the Grantee's consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to issuance of shares.


Language. If the Grantee has received the Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control.

The Grantee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.


Severability. The provisions of these Terms and Conditions are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable.

Waiver. The Grantee acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of these Terms and Conditions, or of any subsequent breach by the Grantee or any other Participant.

EXHIBIT C


Statement of Management Objectives


This Statement of Management Objectives applies to the performance-based Restricted Stock Units granted to the Grantee on the Date of Grant and applies with respect to the Performance Share Units Agreement between the Company and the Grantee (the "Agreement"). Capitalized terms used in the Agreement that are not specifically defined in this Statement of Management Objectives have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement or in the Plan, as applicable.


Section 1.            Definitions. For purposes hereof:


•"Peer Group" means S&P600® Industrials Index as constituted on the first day of the Performance Period.


•"Relative Total Stockholder Return" or "RTSR" means the percentile rank of the Company's Total Stockholder Return among the Total Stockholder Returns of all members of the Peer Group, ranked in descending order, at the end of the Performance Period.


•"Total Stockholder Return" means, with respect to the Common Stock and the common stock of each of the members of the Peer Group, a rate of return reflecting stock price appreciation, plus the reinvestment of dividends in additional shares of stock on the ex-dividend date, from the beginning of the Performance Period through the end of the Performance Period. For purposes of calculating Total Stockholder Return for each of the Company and the members of the Peer Group, the beginning stock price will be based on the average closing stock price for the 30 calendar days immediately preceding January 1, 2022 on the principal stock exchange on which the stock then traded and the ending stock price will be based on the average closing stock price for the 30 calendar days immediately preceding January 1, 2025 on the principal stock exchange on which the stock then trades.


Section 2.            Performance Matrix.


From 0% to 200% of the PSUs will be earned based on achievement of the Management Objectives measured by RTSR during the Performance Period as follows:
									
	Performance Level
	Relative Total Stockholder Return
	PSUs Earned

	Below Threshold
	Ranked below 25th percentile
	0%

	Threshold
	Ranked at 25th percentile
	25%

	Target

Notwithstanding anything in this Statement of Management Objectives or the Agreement to the contrary, if Total Stockholder Return for the Company for the Performance Period is negative the maximum amount of PSUs earned shall be 100% of the PSUs.


Section 3.            Number of PSUs Earned. Following the Performance Period, on the Committee Determination Date, the Committee shall determine whether and to what extent the goals relating to the Management Objectives have been satisfied for the Performance Period and shall determine the number of PSUs that shall become nonforfeitable hereunder and under the Agreement on the basis of the following:
•Below Threshold. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period falls below the threshold level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, no PSUs shall become nonforfeitable.


•Threshold. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period equals the threshold level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, 25% of the PSUs (rounded down to the nearest whole number of PSUs) shall become nonforfeitable.


•Between Threshold and Target. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period exceeds the threshold level, but is less than the target level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, a percentage between 25% and 100% (determined on the basis of straight-line mathematical interpolation) of the PSUs (rounded down to the nearest whole number of PSUs) shall become nonforfeitable.


•Target. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period equals the target level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, 100% of the PSUs shall become nonforfeitable.


•Between Target and Maximum. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period exceeds the target level, but is less than the maximum level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, a percentage between 100% and 200% (determined on the basis of straight-line mathematical interpolation) of the PSUs (rounded down to the nearest whole number of PSUs) shall become nonforfeitable.


•Equals or Exceeds Maximum. If, upon the conclusion of the Performance Period, RTSR for the Performance Period equals or exceeds the maximum level, as set forth in the Performance Matrix, 200% of the PSUs shall become nonforfeitable.


Before all or any portion of any Qualified Performance-Based Award of PSUs shall become nonforfeitable or paid in accordance with this Statement of Management Objectives or the Agreement, the Committee shall determine in writing that the Management Objectives have been satisfied.
