**Item 9.** **Undertakings.**<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. The Registrant hereby undertakes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of Filing Fee table in the effective registration statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;

*Provided*, *however*, that paragraphs (A)(l)(i) and (A)(l)(ii) shall not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. <br>

------

In no event will a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred if any Participant is part of a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act that effects a Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any provision of any Award Agreement to the contrary, for any Award that provides for accelerated distribution on a Change in Control of amounts that constitute "deferred compensation" (to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of taxes or penalties, pursuant to Section 409A of the Code ("**Section 409A**")), if the event that constitutes such Change in Control does not also constitute a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company's assets (in either case, as defined in Section 409A), such amount shall not be distributed on such Change in Control but instead shall vest as of such Change in Control and shall be distributed on the scheduled payment date specified in the applicable Award Agreement, except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in the Participant who holds such Award incurring interest or additional tax under Section 409A.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Subject to the restrictions set forth in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant generally shall have the rights and privileges of a shareholder with respect to Awards of Restricted Stock, including the right to vote such Shares of Restricted Stock.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement that an Award of Restricted Stock shall convey the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents on the Shares subject to such Award with respect to any dividends or other distributions declared during the period that such Award is outstanding, in which case, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, such dividend or dividend equivalent rights shall accumulate and shall be paid in cash or Shares on the vesting date of the Award, subject to the vesting of the Award (or portion thereof) with respect to which such dividend or dividend equivalents are credited. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, any dividends or dividend equivalents in respect of any Award of Restricted Stock shall have the same vesting conditions and vesting dates and shall be paid in accordance with the same terms as the Award to which they relate and no dividends or dividend equivalents will be paid on unvested Awards unless and until such Awards vest.

(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any Award of Restricted Stock may be evidenced in such manner as the Board may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration.

**Section 9.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **RSUs***.* The Board is authorized to grant Awards of RSUs to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Award Agreement shall specify the vesting schedule and the delivery schedule (which may include deferred delivery later than the vesting date).

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Awards of RSUs shall be subject to such restrictions as the Board may impose, which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such time or times, in such installments or otherwise, as the Board may deem appropriate.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; An RSU shall not convey to a Participant the right to vote, unless and until a Share is issued to such Participant upon settlement of such RSU, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by applicable law.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Award Agreement that an Award of RSUs shall convey the right to receive dividend equivalents on the Shares subject to such Award with respect to any dividends or other distributions declared during the period that such Award is outstanding, in which case, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, such dividend equivalent rights shall accumulate and shall be paid upon settlement of an Award of RSUs subject to the vesting of the Award (or portion thereof) with respect to which such dividend equivalents are granted. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, any dividend equivalents in respect of any Award of RSUs shall have the same vesting conditions and vesting dates and shall be paid in accordance with the same terms as the Award to which they relate and no dividend equivalents will be paid on unvested Awards unless and until such Awards vest. For the avoidance of doubt, dividend equivalents that accumulate with respect to an RSU are distinct from the RSU.

(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shares delivered upon the vesting and settlement of an Award of RSUs may be evidenced in such manner as the Board may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration.

(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may determine, in its sole discretion, the form or forms (including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property or any combination thereof) in which payment of the amount owing upon settlement of any Award of RSUs may be made.

(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to RSUs granted to Participants who are not United States taxpayers, to the extent permitted in the applicable Award Agreement and/or applicable law, the Award Agreement may provide that instead of being settled automatically upon vesting or at a specified time, the Award of RSUs may be exercised by the Participant, pursuant to the terms of the applicable country addendum.

**Section 10.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Performance Awards***.* The Board is authorized to grant Performance Awards to Participants with the following terms and conditions and with such additional terms and conditions, in either case not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Performance Awards may be denominated as a cash amount, number of Shares or units or a combination thereof and are Awards that may be earned upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Board in its sole discretion. In addition, the Board may specify that any other Award shall constitute a Performance Award by conditioning the grant to a Participant or the right of a Participant to exercise the Award or have it settled, and the timing thereof, upon achievement or satisfaction of such performance conditions as may be specified by the Board in its sole discretion. The Board may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Subject to the terms of this Plan, the performance goals to be achieved during any Performance Period, the length of any Performance Period, the amount of any Performance Award granted and the amount of any payment or transfer to be made pursuant to any Performance Award shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Performance criteria may be measured on an absolute (*e.g.*, plan or budget) or relative basis, and may be established on a corporate-wide basis, with respect to one or more business units, divisions, Subsidiaries or business segments, or on an individual basis. If the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that a change in the business, operations, corporate structure or capital structure of the Company, or the manner in which the Company conducts its business, or other events or circumstances render the performance objectives unsuitable, the Board may modify the performance objectives or the related minimum acceptable level of achievement, in whole or in part, as the Board deems appropriate and equitable such that it does not provide any undue enrichment or harm. Performance measures may vary from Performance Award to Performance Award and from Participant to Participant, and may be established on a stand-alone basis, in tandem or in the alternative. The Board shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Awards subject to this <u>Section 10(b)</u> as it may deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that such Awards satisfy all requirements of any applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Settlement of Performance Awards shall be in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof, as determined in the sole discretion of the Board.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A Performance Award shall not convey to a Participant the rights and privileges of a shareholder with respect to the Share subject to such Performance Award, such as the right to vote (except as relates to Restricted Stock) or the right to receive dividends, unless and until and to the extent a Share is issued to such Participant to settle such Performance Award. The Board, in its sole discretion, may provide that a Performance Award shall convey the right to receive dividend equivalents on the Shares subject to such Performance Award with respect to any dividends declared during the period that such Performance Award is outstanding, in which case, such dividend equivalent rights shall accumulate and shall be paid in cash or Shares on the settlement date of the Performance Award, subject to the Participant's earning of the Shares with respect to which such dividend equivalents are paid upon achievement or satisfaction of performance conditions specified by the Board in its sole discretion. Shares delivered upon the vesting and settlement of a Performance Award may be evidenced in such manner as the Board may deem appropriate, including book-entry registration. For the avoidance of doubt, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, no dividend equivalent rights shall be provided with respect to any Shares subject to Performance Awards that are not earned or otherwise do not vest or settle pursuant to their terms.

(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may, in its sole discretion, increase or reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with a Performance Award.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With respect to Performance Awards granted to Participants who are not United States taxpayers, to the extent permitted in the applicable Award Agreement and/or applicable law, the Award Agreement may provide that instead of being settled automatically upon vesting or at a specified time, the Performance Award may be exercised by the Participant, pursuant to the terms of the applicable country addendum.

**Section 11.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Other Cash-Based Awards and Other Share-Based Awards***.* The Board is authorized, subject to limitations under applicable law, to grant Other Cash-Based Awards (either independently or as an element of or supplement to any other Award under this Plan) and Other Share-Based Awards. The Board shall determine, in its sole discretion, the terms and conditions of such Awards. Shares delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this <u>Section 11</u> shall be purchased for such consideration, and paid for at such times, by such methods and in such forms, including cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, broker-assisted cashless exercise or any combination thereof, as the Board shall determine in its sole discretion; *provided* that the purchase price therefor shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the date of grant of such right.

**Section 12.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Effect of Termination of Service or a Change in Control on Awards**.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may provide, by rule or regulation or in any applicable Award Agreement, or may determine, in its sole discretion, in any individual case, the circumstances in which, and the extent to which, an Award may be exercised, settled, vested, paid or forfeited in the event of a Participant's Termination of Service prior to the end of a Performance Period or vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may determine, in its sole discretion, whether, and the extent to which, (i) an Award will vest during a leave of absence, (ii) a reduction in service level (for example, from full-time to part-time employment) will cause a reduction, or other change, to an Award and (iii) a leave of absence or reduction in service will be deemed a Termination of Service.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the event of a Change in Control, the Board may, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, take any one or more of the following actions with respect to all or a portion of any outstanding Award, which need not be uniform with respect to all Participants and/or Awards:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; continuation or assumption of such Award by the Company (if it is the surviving corporation) or by the successor or surviving entity or its parent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) substitution or replacement of such Award by the successor or surviving entity or its parent with cash, securities, rights or other property to be paid or issued, as the case may be, by the successor or surviving entity (or a parent or Subsidiary thereof), with substantially the same terms and value as such Award (including any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto);

------

![](image00004.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) acceleration of the vesting of such Award and the lapse of any restrictions thereon and, in the case of an Option or SAR Award, acceleration of the right to exercise such Award during a specified period (and the termination of such Option or SAR Award without payment of any consideration therefor to the extent such Award is not timely exercised), in each case, either (A) immediately prior to or as of the date of the Change in Control, (B) upon a Participant's involuntary Termination of Service (including upon a termination of the Participant's employment by the Company (or a successor corporation or its parent) without "cause," by a Participant for "good reason" and/or due to a Participant's death or "disability", as such terms may be defined in the applicable Award Agreement and/or a Participant's service agreement, as the case may be) on or within a specified period prior to or following the Change in Control or (C) upon the failure of the successor or surviving entity (or its parent) to continue or assume such Award on no less favorable terms and conditions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) in the case of a Performance Award, determination of the level of attainment of the applicable performance condition(s) (including waiving any such conditions); and

(v) cancellation of such Award in consideration of a payment, with the form, amount and timing of such payment determined by the Board in its sole discretion, subject to the following: (A) such payment shall be made in cash, securities, rights and/or other property; (B) the amount of such payment shall equal the value of such Award, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion; *provided* that, in the case of an Option or SAR Award, if such value equals the Intrinsic Value of such Award, such value shall be deemed to be valid; *provided further* that, if the Intrinsic Value of an Option or SAR Award is equal to or less than zero, the Board may, in its sole discretion, provide for the cancellation of such Award without payment of any consideration therefor (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a Change in Control, the Board may, in its sole discretion, terminate any Option or SAR Awards for which the exercise or hurdle price is equal to or exceeds the per Share value of the consideration to be paid in the Change in Control transaction without payment of consideration therefor); and (C) such payment shall be made promptly following such Change in Control or on a specified date or dates following such Change in Control; *provided further* that the timing of such payment shall comply with Section 409A.

**Section 13.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **General Provisions Applicable to Awards**.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Awards shall be granted for such cash or other consideration, if any, as the Board determines in its sole discretion; *provided* that in no event shall Awards be issued for less than such minimal consideration as may be required by applicable law.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Awards may, in the sole discretion of the Board, be granted either alone or in addition to or in tandem with any other Award or any award granted under any other plan of the Company. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards, or in addition to or in tandem with awards granted under any other plan of the Company, may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards or awards.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Subject to the terms of this Plan, payments or transfers to be made by the Company upon the grant, exercise or settlement of an Award may be made in the form of cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion at the time of grant, and may be made in a single payment or transfer, in installments or on a deferred basis, in each case in accordance with rules and procedures established by the Board in its sole discretion. Such rules and procedures may include provisions for the payment or crediting of reasonable interest on installment or deferred payments or the grant or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of installment or deferred payments.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Except as may be permitted by the Board in its sole discretion or as specifically provided in an Award Agreement, (i) no Award and no right under any Award shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to <u>Section 13(d)</u> and (ii) during a Participant's lifetime, each Award, and each right under any Award, shall be exercisable only by such Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by such Participant's guardian or legal representative. Except as required by applicable law, the provisions of this <u>Section 13(d)</u> shall not apply to any Award that has been fully exercised or settled, as the case may be, and shall not preclude forfeiture of an Award in accordance with the terms thereof.

(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A Participant may designate a Beneficiary or change a previous Beneficiary designation only at such times as prescribed by the Board, in its sole discretion, and only by using forms and following procedures approved or accepted by the Board for that purpose.

(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; All certificates, if any, for Shares and/or other securities delivered under this Plan pursuant to any Award or the exercise or settlement thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Board may deem advisable solely in accordance with the terms of this Plan or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock market or exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then quoted, traded or listed, and any applicable securities laws, and the Board may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Shares under this Plan or remove restrictions from Shares previously delivered under this Plan until (i) all Award conditions have been met or removed to the Board's satisfaction, (ii) as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, all other legal matters regarding the issuance and delivery of such Shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Board deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any applicable laws. The Company's inability to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which the Board determines, in its sole discretion, is necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares, will relieve the Company of any liability for failing to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority has not been obtained.

(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company may, in its sole discretion, set a minimum number of Awards (to the extent exercisable) that are permitted to be exercised by a Participant as part of a single Award exercise and a minimum time period between partial exercise of such Award.

(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Awards under this Plan may be subject to additional country-specific provisions set forth in a country addendum, which addendum shall govern in the case of any inconsistency between an Award Agreement and the addendum. One or more country addenda may apply depending on the applicable law that the Company reasonably determines may apply under the Participant's particular circumstances. The Board has the authority to determine, in its sole discretion, which addendum or addenda may apply and to reconcile any inconsistencies between applicable addenda.

**Section 14.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Amendments and Terminations**.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *Amendment or Termination of this Plan*. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award Agreement or in this Plan, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate this Plan or any portion thereof at any time; *provided*, *however*, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without (i) shareholder approval if such approval is required by applicable law or the rules of the stock market or exchange, if any, on which the Shares are principally quoted or traded or (ii) subject to <u>Section 5(d)</u> and <u>Section 12</u>, the consent of the affected Participant, if such action would materially adversely affect the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, except (x) to the extent any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination is made to cause this Plan to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations or (y) to impose any "clawback" or recoupment provisions on any Awards (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) in accordance with <u>Section 18</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the Board may amend this Plan, or create sub-plans, in such manner as may be necessary or desirable to enable this Plan to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with local rules and regulations.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *Dissolution or Liquidation*. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each Award shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *Terms of Awards*. The Board may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate any Award theretofore granted (including by substituting another Award of the same or a different type), prospectively or retroactively, without the consent of any relevant Participant or holder or Beneficiary of an Award; *provided*, *however*, that, subject to <u>Section 5(d)</u> and <u>Section 12</u>, no such action shall materially adversely affect the rights of any affected Participant or holder or Beneficiary under any Award theretofore granted under this Plan, except (x) to the extent any such action is made to cause this Plan or Award to comply with applicable law, stock market or exchange rules and regulations or accounting or tax rules and regulations, or (y) to impose any "clawback" or recoupment provisions on any Awards (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) in accordance with <u>Section 18</u>. The Board shall be authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, Awards in recognition of events (including the events described in <u>Section 5(d)</u>) affecting the Company, the financial statements of the Company or changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, whenever the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that such adjustments are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; *No Repricing*. Except as provided in <u>Section 5(d)</u>, the Board may not, without shareholder approval, seek to effect any re-pricing of any previously granted "underwater" Option, SAR or similar Award by: (i) amending or modifying the terms of the Option, SAR or similar Award to lower the exercise or hurdle price; (ii) cancelling the "underwater" Option, SAR or similar Award and granting either (A) replacement Options, SARs or similar Awards having a lower exercise or hurdle price or (B) Restricted Stock, RSUs, Performance Awards or Other Share-Based Awards in exchange; or (iii) cancelling or repurchasing the "underwater" Options, SARs or similar Awards for cash or other securities. An Option, SAR or similar Award will be deemed to be "underwater" at any time when the Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by such Award is less than the exercise or hurdle price of the Award.

![](image00004.jpg)

**Section 15.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Miscellaneous**.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No Employee, Consultant, non-employee Director, Participant, or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award under this Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of employees, Participants or holders or Beneficiaries of Awards under this Plan. The terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient. Any Award granted under this Plan shall be a one-time Award that does not constitute a promise of future grants. The Company, in its sole discretion, maintains the right to make available future grants under this Plan.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of, or to continue to provide services to, any member of the Group. Further, an applicable member of the Group may at any time dismiss a Participant, free from any liability, or any claim under this Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Plan or in any Award Agreement or in any other agreement binding on the parties. The receipt of any Award under this Plan is not intended to confer any rights on the receiving Participant except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No payment pursuant to this Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any severance, pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of any member of the Group, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent any member of the Group from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, including the grant of Options and Other Share-Based Awards, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award or under this Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net settlement, sell-to-cover arrangements, or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of an Award, its exercise or settlement or any payment or transfer under such Award or under this Plan and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by such Participant) as may be necessary to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes and, unless otherwise determined by the Board in its sole discretion, to the extent such withholding would not result in liability classification of such Award (or any portion thereof) pursuant to FASB ASC Subtopic 718-10.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

(f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If any provision of this Plan or any Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify this Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Board in its sole discretion, such provision shall 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 Board, materially altering the intent of this Plan or the Award Agreement, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award, and the remainder of this Plan and any such Award Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

(g)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Neither this Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and a Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(h)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to this Plan or any Award, and the Board shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether cash or other securities shall be paid or transferred in lieu of any fractional Shares, or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be canceled, terminated or otherwise eliminated.

(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Awards may be granted to Participants who are non-United States nationals or employed or providing services outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Participants who are employed or providing services in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Board, be necessary or desirable to recognize differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Board also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimize the Company's obligation with respect to tax equalization for Participants on assignments outside their home country.

**Section 16.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Effective Date of this Plan***.* The Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date.

**Section 17.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Term of this Plan***.* No Award shall be granted under this Plan after the earliest to occur of (i) the ten (10)-year anniversary of the Effective Date; (ii) the maximum number of Shares available for issuance under this Plan have been issued; or (iii) the Plan is terminated in accordance with <u>Section 14(a)</u>. However, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Plan or in an applicable Award Agreement, any Award theretofore granted may extend beyond such date, and the authority of the Board to amend, alter, adjust, suspend, discontinue or terminate any such Award, to waive any conditions or rights under any such Award or to amend this Plan, shall extend beyond such date.

![](image00004.jpg)

***Section 18.***&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Cancellation or "Clawback" of Awards**.

(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Board may specify in an Award Agreement that a Participant's rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include a Termination of Service with or without "cause" (and, in the case of any cause that is resulting from an indictment or other non-final determination, the Board may provide for such Award to be held in escrow or abeyance until a final resolution of the matters related to such event occurs, at which time the Award shall either be reduced, cancelled or forfeited (as provided in such Award Agreement) or remain in effect, depending on the outcome), violation of material policies, breach of non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disparagement, confidentiality or other restrictive covenants, or requirements to comply with minimum share ownership requirements, that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Group.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any Awards granted under this Plan (including any amounts or benefits arising from such Awards) shall be subject to any "clawback" or recoupment arrangements or policies the Company has in place from time to time (including, without limitation, the Company's Restatement Clawback Policy, as well as any applicable laws, regulations or stock exchange listing standards) and the Board may, to the extent permitted by applicable law and stock exchange rules or by any applicable Company policy or arrangement, and shall, to the extent required, cancel or require reimbursement of any Awards granted to the Participant or any Shares issued or cash received upon vesting, exercise or settlement of any such Awards or sale of Shares underlying such Awards.

**Section 19.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Section 409A and Section 457A***.* With respect to Awards subject to Section 409A and Section 457A of the Code ("**Section 457A**"), this Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A and Section 457A, and the provisions of this Plan and any Award Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A and Section 457A, and this Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of this Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition shall be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, if the Board considers a Participant to be a "specified employee" under Section 409A at the time of such Participant's "separation from service" (as defined in Section 409A), and any amount hereunder is "deferred compensation" subject to Section 409A, any distribution of such amount that otherwise would be made to such Participant with respect to an Award as a result of such "separation from service" shall not be made until the date that is six months after such "separation from service," except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in such Participant's incurring interest or additional tax under Section 409A. If an Award includes a "series of installment payments" (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations), a Participant's right to such series of installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments and not as a right to a single payment, and if an Award includes "dividend equivalents" (within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the Treasury Regulations), a Participant's right to such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts under the Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this Plan or any Award Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by a Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A and Section 457A.

------

![](image00004.jpg)

**Section 20.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Successors and Assigns**. The terms of this Plan and each Award Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor entity, including any successor entity contemplated by <u>Section 12(c)</u>.
