of Stock Appreciation Rights.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in a related Award Agreement, a Stock Appreciation
Right may be exercised for all or any portion of the Shares for which it is then exercisable.  A Stock Appreciation Right shall
be exercised by the delivery of a notice of exercise to the Company or its designee in a form specified by the Company which sets forth
the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is to be exercised.  Upon exercise, a Stock Appreciation
Right shall entitle a Participant to an amount equal to (a) the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of a Share on the exercise
date over (ii) the exercise price per Share, multiplied by (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation
Right is exercised.  A Stock Appreciation Right may be settled in whole Shares, cash or a combination thereof, as specified by the
Committee in the related Award Agreement.


 


8.       Restricted
Shares.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Shares may be granted or sold to Participants in such number,
and upon such terms and conditions, as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.


 


(a)       Award
Agreement.  Each Restricted Shares Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the number of Restricted
Shares, the restricted period(s) applicable to the Restricted Shares, the conditions upon which the restrictions on the Restricted
Shares will lapse and such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine and which are not inconsistent with the terms
and conditions of the Plan.

(b)       Terms,
Conditions and Restrictions.  The Committee shall impose such other terms, conditions and/or restrictions on any Restricted
Shares as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, a requirement that the Participant pay a purchase price for each Restricted
Share, restrictions based on the achievement of specific Performance Objectives, time-based restrictions or holding requirements or sale
restrictions placed on the Shares by the Company upon vesting of such Restricted Shares.  Unless otherwise provided in the related
Award Agreement or required by Applicable Law, the restrictions imposed on Restricted Shares shall lapse upon the expiration or termination
of the applicable restricted period and the satisfaction of any other applicable terms and conditions.


 


(c)       Custody
of Certificates.  To the extent deemed appropriate by the Committee, the Company may retain the certificates representing Restricted
Shares in the Company’s possession until such time as all terms, conditions and/or restrictions applicable to such Shares have
been satisfied or lapse.


 


(d)       Rights
Associated with Restricted Shares during Restricted Period.  During any restricted period applicable to Restricted Shares: (i) the
Restricted Shares may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated; (ii) unless otherwise
provided in the related Award Agreement, the Participant shall be entitled to exercise full voting rights associated with such Restricted
Shares; and (iii) subject to the restrictions in Section 12 below, the Participant shall be entitled to all dividends and other
distributions paid with respect to such Restricted Shares during the restricted period. 


 


9.         Restricted
Share Units.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Restricted Share Units may be granted or sold to Participants
in such number, and upon such terms and conditions, as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.


 


(a)       Award
Agreement.  Each Restricted Share Unit shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the number of units, the
restricted period(s) applicable to the Restricted Share Units, the conditions upon which the restrictions on the Restricted Share
Units will lapse, the time and method of payment of the Restricted Share Units, and such other terms and conditions as the Committee
shall determine and which are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of the Plan.


 


(b)       Terms,
Conditions and Restrictions. The Committee shall impose such other terms, conditions and/or restrictions on any Restricted Share
Units as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, a requirement that the Participant pay a purchase price for each Restricted
Share Unit, restrictions based on the achievement of specific Performance Objectives or time-based restrictions or holding requirements.


 


(c)       Form of
Settlement.  Restricted Share Units may be settled in whole Shares, cash or a combination thereof, as specified by the Committee
in the related Award Agreement.


 


10.       Other
Share-Based Awards.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Other Share-Based Awards may be granted to Participants
in such number, and upon such terms and conditions, as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Other Share-Based
Awards are Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on the Fair Market Value of, Shares, and shall
be in such form as the Committee shall determine, including without limitation, unrestricted Shares or time-based or performance-based
units that are settled in Shares and/or cash.


 


(a)       Award
Agreement.  Each Other Share-Based Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the terms and conditions
upon which the Other Share-Based Award shall become vested, if applicable, the time and method of settlement, the form of settlement
and such other terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine and which are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of
the Plan.

Settlement. An Other Share-Based Award may be settled in whole Shares, cash or a combination thereof, as specified by the Committee
in the related Award Agreement.


 


11.       Cash-Based
Awards.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Cash-Based Awards may be granted to Participants in such amounts and
upon such other terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion.  Each Cash-Based Award shall
be evidenced by an Award Agreement that shall specify the payment amount or payment range, the time and method of settlement and the
other terms and conditions, as applicable, of such Award which may include, without limitation, restrictions based on the achievement
of specific Performance Objectives.


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

 


12.       Dividend
Equivalents. Awards may provide the Participant with dividend equivalents, on a contingent basis and either in cash or in additional
Shares, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion and set forth in the related Award Agreement; provided, however, that that
any dividend equivalents with respect to an unvested Award shall be accumulated or deemed reinvested until such Award is earned and vested,
and shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as the original Award (including service-based vesting conditions and the achievement
of any Performance Objectives). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no dividend equivalents shall be granted with respect to Shares underlying
a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right.


 


13.       Compliance
with Section 409A.  Awards granted under the Plan shall be designed and administered in such a manner that they are either
exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.  To the extent that the Committee
determines that any award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement shall incorporate the
terms and conditions necessary to avoid the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon a Participant. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement (unless the Award Agreement provides otherwise with specific reference
to this Section 13): (a) an Award shall not be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out, settled, substituted or
modified under the Plan in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon
a Participant; and (b) if an Award is subject to Section 409A of the Code, and if the Participant holding the award is a “specified
employee” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code, with such classification to be determined in accordance with the methodology
established by the Company), then, to the extent required to avoid the imposition of an additional tax under Section 409A of the
Code upon a Participant, no distribution or payment of any amount shall be made before the date that is 6 months following the date of
such Participant’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) or, if earlier, the date
of the Participant’s death.  Although the Company intends to administer the Plan so that Awards will be exempt from, or will
comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Company does not warrant that any Award under the Plan will qualify
for favorable tax treatment under Section 409A of the Code or any other provision of federal, state, local, or non-United States
law.  The Company shall not be liable to any Participant for any tax, interest, or penalties the Participant might owe as a result
of the grant, holding, vesting, exercise, or payment of any Award under the Plan.


 


14.       Performance-Based
Awards.


 


(a)       In
General.  In General. As determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, the grant, vesting, exercisability and/or settlement
of any Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and Other Share-Based Awards may be conditioned on the attainment of one or more Performance
Objectives during a performance period established by the Committee.


 


(b)       Performance
Objectives.  Performance Objectives may be based on such criteria as determined by the Committee in its discretion, which may
include (but shall not be limited to) the following criteria: revenues, earnings from operations, operating income, earnings before or
after interest and taxes, operating income before or after interest and taxes, net income, cash flow, operating cash flow, earnings per
share, return on total capital, return on invested capital, return on gross investment, return on equity, return on assets, total return
to stockholders, earnings before or after interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization or extraordinary or special items, operating income
before or after interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization or extraordinary or special items, return on investment, free cash flow,
cash flow return on investment (discounted or otherwise), net cash provided by operations, cash flow in excess of cost of capital, operating
margin, profit margin, contribution margin, stock price corporate value and sustainability metrics (including, without limitation, environmental,
social and governance matters), human capital metrics (including, without limitation, employee satisfaction, management of employment
practices, employee benefits, and workforce retention, safety or diversity), and/or strategic business criteria consisting of one or
more objectives based on meeting specified product development, strategic partnering, research and development milestones, market penetration,
geographic business expansion goals, cost targets, customer satisfaction, supervision of litigation and information technology, and goals
relating to acquisitions or divestitures of subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures.


 






    	 	10	 



     


    

 


(c)       Adjustments. 
The Committee may provide in any Award Agreement that any evaluation of attainment of a Performance Objective may include or exclude
any of the following events that occurs during the relevant period: (i) asset write downs; (ii) litigation or claim judgments or settlements;
(iii) the effect of changes in tax laws, accounting principles or other laws or provisions affecting reported results; (iv) any reorganization
and restructuring programs; (v) unusual or infrequently occurring items as described in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standards Update No. 2015-01 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the applicable year; (vi) acquisitions or divestitures; (vii) foreign exchange
gains and losses; and (viii) other events identified by the Committee. Moreover, if the Committee determines that a change in the Company’s
business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure, or in the manner in which it conducts its business, or other events or
circumstances render the Performance Objectives unsuitable, the Committee may, in its discretion and without the consent of any Participant,
adjust such Performance Objectives or the related level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Committee deems appropriate and equitable.


 


(d)       Certification
of Performance.  The Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable Performance Objectives and other material terms
imposed on such Award have been satisfied, and, if they have, ascertain the amount of the payout or vesting of the Award.


 


15.       Minimum
Vesting for Awards.  Subject to Sections 20, 22 and 23(b) of the Plan, Awards granted under the Plan on or after the Restatement
Date shall vest no earlier than the first anniversary of the date the Award is granted; provided, however, that the Committee may grant
Awards without regard to the foregoing minimum vesting requirement with respect to a maximum of five percent (5%) of the total number
of Shares remaining available for issuance under the Plan under Section 3(b) as of the Restatement Date (subject to adjustment under
Section 17).


 


16.       Transferability. 
Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, no Award or dividend equivalents paid with respect to any Award shall be transferable
by the Participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, that if so determined by the Committee, each
Participant may, in a manner established by the Board or the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant
with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant and to receive Shares or other property issued or delivered under such Award. 
Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will be exercisable during a Participant’s
lifetime only by the Participant or, in the event of the Participant’s legal incapacity to do so, by the Participant’s guardian
or legal representative acting on behalf of the Participant in a fiduciary capacity under state law and/or court supervision.


 


17.       Adjustments. 
In the event of any equity restructuring (within the meaning of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification
Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation), such as a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spinoff, rights offering,
or recapitalization through a large, nonrecurring cash dividend, the Committee shall cause there to be an equitable adjustment in the
numbers of Shares specified in Section 3 of the Plan and, with respect to outstanding Awards, in the number and kind of Shares subject
to outstanding Awards, the exercise price, exercise price or other price of Shares subject to outstanding Awards, in each case to prevent
dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants.  In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, or in the
event of a merger, consolidation, liquidation, or similar transaction, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, cause there to be an
equitable adjustment as described in the foregoing sentence, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights; provided, however,
that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be rounded down to a whole
number.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall not make any adjustment pursuant to this Section 17 that would
(i) cause any Stock Option intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option to fail to so qualify, (ii) cause an Award that
is otherwise exempt from Section 409A of the Code to become subject to Section 409A of the Code, or (iii) cause an Award
that is subject to Section 409A of the Code to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.  The determination
of the Committee as to the foregoing adjustments, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on all Participants and any other persons claiming
under or through any Participant.


 


18.       Fractional
Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any fractional Shares pursuant to the Plan and, unless otherwise
provided by the Committee, fractional shares shall be settled in cash.


 






    	 	11	 



     


    

 


19.       Withholding
Taxes.  To the extent required by Applicable Law, a Participant shall be required to satisfy, in a manner satisfactory to the
Company or Subsidiary, as applicable, any withholding tax obligations that arise by reason of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right
exercise, the vesting of or settlement of Shares under an Award, an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code or otherwise
with respect to an Award.  The Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to issue or deliver Shares, make any payment or
to recognize the transfer or disposition of Shares until such obligations are satisfied.  The Committee may permit or require these
obligations to be satisfied by having the Company withhold a portion of the Shares that otherwise would be issued or delivered to a Participant
upon exercise of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right or upon the vesting or settlement of an Award, or by tendering Shares previously
acquired, in each case having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld or paid (or such other amount that
will not result in adverse accounting consequences for the Company or a Subsidiary).  Any such elections are subject to such conditions
or procedures as may be established by the Committee and may be subject to disapproval by the Committee.


 


 20.       Foreign
Employees.  Without amending the Plan, the Committee may grant Awards to Participants who are foreign nationals on such terms
and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may in the judgment of the Committee be necessary or desirable to foster
and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan, and, in furtherance of such purposes, the Committee may make such modifications,
amendments, procedures, and the like as may be necessary or advisable to comply with provisions of Applicable Laws of other countries
in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operate or have employees.


 


 21.       Detrimental
Activity; Forfeiture of Awards.


 


  (a)       Detrimental
Activity. Any Award Agreement may provide that if the Committee determines a Participant has engaged in any Detrimental Activity,
either during service with the Company or a Subsidiary or after termination of such service, then, promptly upon receiving notice of
the Committee’s determination, the Participant shall:


 


(i)       forfeit
that Award to the extent then held by the Participant;


 


(ii)       subject
to Section 21(b) below, return to the Company or the Subsidiary all Shares that the Participant has not disposed of that had
been acquired pursuant to that Award, in exchange for payment by the Company or the Subsidiary of any amount actually paid therefor by
the Participant; and


 


(iii)       subject
to Section 21(b) below, with respect to any Shares acquired pursuant to an Award that were disposed of, pay to the Company
or the Subsidiary, in cash, the excess, if any, of: (A) the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date acquired, over (B) any
amount actually paid by the Participant for the Shares.


 


(b)       Period
of Restriction.  Sections 21(a)(ii) and (iii) shall apply only to Shares that were acquired pursuant to the Award
during a period of two (2) years prior to the date of the Participant’s initial commencement of the Detrimental Activity (or
such other period of time specified by the Committee in the Award Agreement).


 


(c)       Compensation
Recovery Policy.  Any Award granted to a Participant shall be subject to forfeiture or repayment pursuant to the terms of any
applicable compensation recovery policy adopted by the Company, including any such policy that may be adopted to comply with the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or any rules or regulations issued by the SEC rule or applicable securities
exchange.


 


(d)       Set-Off
and Other Remedies.  To the extent that amounts are not immediately returned or paid to the Company as provided in this Section 21,
the Company may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, seek other remedies, including a set off of the amounts so payable to it
against any amounts that may be owing from time to time by the Company or a Subsidiary to the Participant for any reason, including,
without limitation, wages, or vacation pay or other benefits; provided, however, that, except to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulation
Section 1.409A-3(j)(4), such offset shall not apply to amounts that are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of
Section 409A of the Code.


 






    	 	12	 



     


    

 


22.       Change
in Control.


 


(a)       Awards
that are Assumed.  To the extent outstanding Awards granted under this Plan are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting
entity in the event of a Change in Control (or, if the Company is the resulting entity, to the extent such Awards are continued by the
Company), then, except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or in another written agreement with the Participant,
or in a Company severance plan applicable to the Participant:  (i) any outstanding Awards that are subject to Performance Objectives
shall be converted by the resulting entity, as if “target” performance had been achieved as of the date of the Change in
Control, and shall continue to vest during the remaining performance period or other period of required service, and (ii) all other
Awards shall continue to vest during the applicable vesting period, if any.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if a Participant
incurs a Qualified Termination, then upon such termination (A) all outstanding Awards held by the Participant that may be exercised
shall become fully exercisable and shall remain exercisable for the full duration of their term, (B) all restrictions with respect
to outstanding Awards shall lapse, with any specified Performance Objectives with respect to outstanding Awards deemed to be satisfied
at the “target” level, and (C) all outstanding Awards shall become fully vested.


 


(b)       Awards
that are not Assumed.  To the extent outstanding Awards granted under this Plan are not assumed, converted or replaced by the
resulting entity in connection with a Change in Control (or, if the Company is the resulting entity, to the extent such Awards are not
continued by the Company), then, except as otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement or in another written agreement with
the Participant, or in a Company severance plan applicable to the Participant, and effective immediately prior to the Change in Control: 
(i) all outstanding Awards held by the Participant that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable and shall remain exercisable
for the full duration of their term, (ii) all restrictions with respect to outstanding Awards shall lapse, with any specified Performance
Objectives with respect to outstanding Awards deemed to be satisfied at the “target” level, and (iii) all outstanding
Awards shall become fully vested.


 


(c)       Cancellation
Right.  The Committee may, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Participants, either by the terms of the Award
Agreement applicable to any Award or by resolution adopted prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control, provide that any outstanding
Award (or a portion thereof) shall, upon the occurrence of such Change in Control, be cancelled in exchange for a payment in cash or
other property (including shares of the resulting entity in connection with a Change in Control) in an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Award, over any exercise price related to the Award, which amount may be zero
if the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of the Change in Control does not exceed the exercise price per Share of the applicable
Awards.


 


23.       Amendment,
Modification and Termination.


 


(a)       In
General.  The Board may at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part;
provided, however, that no alteration or amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to comply with any rule promulgated
by the SEC or any securities exchange on which Shares are listed or any other Applicable Laws shall be effective unless such amendment
shall be approved by the requisite vote of stockholders of the Company entitled to vote thereon within the time period required under
such applicable listing standard or rule.


 


(b)       Adjustments
to Outstanding Awards.  The Committee may in its sole discretion at any time (i) provide that all or a portion of a Participant’s
Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, and other Awards in the nature of rights that may be exercised shall become fully or partially
exercisable; (ii) provide that all or a part of the time-based vesting restrictions on all or a portion of the outstanding Awards
shall lapse, and/or that any Performance Objectives or other performance-based criteria with respect to any Awards shall be deemed to
be wholly or partially satisfied; or (iii) waive any other limitation or requirement under any such Award, in each case, as of such
date as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, declare.  Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, any such adjustment that
is made with respect to an Award that is intended to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception shall be made at such times and in such
manner as will not cause such Awards to fail to qualify under the Performance-Based Exception.  Additionally, the Committee shall
not make any adjustment pursuant to this Section 23(b) that would cause an Award that is otherwise exempt from Section 409A
of the Code to become subject to Section 409A of the Code, or that would cause an Award that is subject to Section 409A of
the Code to fail to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.


 






    	 	13	 



     


    

 


(c)       Prohibition
on Repricing.  Except for adjustments made pursuant to Sections 17 or 22, the Board or the Committee will not, without
the further approval of the stockholders of the Company, authorize the amendment of any outstanding Stock Option or Stock Appreciation
Right to reduce the exercise price.  No Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right will be cancelled and replaced with an Award having
a lower exercise price, or for another Award, or for cash without further approval of the stockholders of the Company, except as provided
in Sections 17 or 22.  Furthermore, no Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right will provide for the payment, at the time of
exercise, of a cash bonus or grant or sale of another Award without further approval of the stockholders of the Company.  This Section 23(c) is
intended to prohibit the repricing of “underwater” Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights without stockholder approval
and will not be construed to prohibit the adjustments provided for in Sections 17 or 22.


 


(d)       Effect
on Outstanding Awards.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary (other than Sections 17, 22, 23(b) and
25(d)), no termination, amendment, suspension, or modification of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall adversely affect in any material
way any Award previously granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant holding such Award.  Notwithstanding
the preceding sentence, any Incentive Stock Option granted under the Plan may be modified by the Committee to disqualify such Stock Option
from treatment as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code.


 


24.       Applicable
Laws.  The obligations of the Company with respect to Awards under the Plan shall be subject to all Applicable Laws and such
approvals by any governmental agencies as the Committee determines may be required.  The Plan and each Award Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer
construction or interpretation of the Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction.


 


25.       Miscellaneous.


 


(a)       Deferral
of Awards.  Except with respect to Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, the Committee may permit Participants to elect
to defer the issuance or delivery of Shares or the settlement of Awards in cash under the Plan pursuant to such rules, procedures or
programs as it may establish for purposes of the Plan.  The Committee also may provide that deferred issuances and settlements include
the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents or interest on the deferral amounts.  All elections and deferrals permitted under
this provision shall comply with Section 409A of the Code, including setting forth the time and manner of the election (including
a compliant time and form of payment), the date on which the election is irrevocable, and whether the election can be changed until the
date it is irrevocable.


 


(b)       No
Right of Continued Employment.  The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment
or other service with the Company or any Subsidiary, nor shall it interfere in any way with any right the Company or any Subsidiary would
otherwise have to terminate such Participant’s employment or other service at any time.  No Employee or Director shall have
the right to be selected to receive an Award under the Plan, or, having been so selected, to be selected to receive future Awards.


 


(c)       Unfunded,
Unsecured Plan.  Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of participation in the Plan, acquire any right
or title to any assets, funds or property of the Company or any Subsidiary, including without limitation, any specific funds, assets
or other property which the Company or any Subsidiary may set aside in anticipation of any liability under the Plan.  A Participant
shall have only a contractual right to an Award or the amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by any assets of the Company
or any Subsidiary, and nothing contained in the Plan shall constitute a guarantee that the assets of the Company or any Subsidiary shall
be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.


 


(d)       Severability. 
If any provision of the Plan is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or would disqualify the Plan or any
Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended or limited in scope to conform
to Applicable Laws or, in the discretion of the Committee, it shall be stricken and the remainder of the Plan shall remain in full force
and effect.


 






    	 	14	 



     


    

 


(e)       Acceptance
of Plan.  By accepting any benefit under the Plan, each Participant and each person claiming under or through any such Participant
shall be conclusively deemed to have indicated their acceptance and ratification of, and consent to, all of the terms and conditions
of the Plan and any action taken under the Plan by the Committee, the Board or the Company, in any case in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Plan.


 


(f)       Successors. 
All obligations of the Company under the Plan and with respect to Awards shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the
existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or other event, or a sale or disposition
of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company and references to the “Company” herein and in any
Award agreements shall be deemed to refer to such successors.
