&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A Participant shall forfeit any unvested interest in the Participant's Account upon a Termination of Employment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Participant whose Account was forfeited in its entirety pursuant to subsection (c) above again becomes employed by the Company or an Associated Company, the amount of the Participant's Forfeiture shall only be restored to the Participant's Account to the extent determined by the Committee, and any credit for Years of Service prior to such reemployment shall be fixed by the Committee and, if not so fixed, shall not be recognized.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. **<u>Payment of Benefit</u>.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Upon a Participant's Termination of Employment, the Participant's vested Benefit shall be paid as follow:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Unless a Participant makes a timely subsequent deferral election pursuant to Section 5(b), the
Participant's Pre-Termination Vested Benefit shall be paid in a cash lump sum as soon as administratively feasible following the six-month anniversary of the date
of Termination of Employment, but in no event later than sixty (60) days following such six-month anniversary.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To the extent attributable to contributions credited to the Participant's Account with respect to Base
Compensation earned on or after September 1, 2025, the Participant's Post-Termination Vested Benefit shall be paid in a cash lump sum on the 12-month anniversary of the Participant's Termination
of Employment. For the avoidance of doubt, this payment shall be made at such time and in such form regardless of whether the Participant makes a timely subsequent deferral election pursuant to Section 5(b) with respect to their Pre-Termination Vested Benefit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) To the extent attributable to contributions credited to the Participant's Account with respect to Base
Compensation earned before September 1, 2025, the Participant's Post-Termination Vested Benefit shall be paid in a second cash lump sum in the calendar year immediately following the date of the Termination of Employment but in no event
sooner than six (6) months following termination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Effective September 1, 2025, after becoming a Participant, such Participant may file an Election Form with the Committee electing to have the Participant's Pre-Termination Vested Benefit either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Paid in a cash lump sum five (5) years from the date of payment described in Section 5(a)(i);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Paid in ratable annual installments in cash for a period of three (3) years, with payments commencing five
(5) years from the date of payment described in Section 5(a)(i); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Paid in ratable annual installments in cash for a period of five (5) years, with payments commencing five
(5) years from the date of payment described in Section 5(a)(i).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, such a deferral election shall be null and void unless: (i) the deferral election does not take effect for at least twelve (12) months after it is made, (ii) the deferral election is made at least twelve (12) months prior to the date the first installment otherwise would be paid under Section 5(a)(i), as specified in the Election Form, and (iii) the deferral election defers payment for at least five (5) years after the date that the cash lump sum would otherwise have been paid (except with respect to distributions due to death or Disability), all in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Any deferral election within twelve (12) months of a Participant's Termination of Employment shall be null and void. A Participant may not change such deferral election after it is made. A Participant may only make one (1) deferral election; further deferral elections are not permitted. For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant may not make a deferral election with respect to their Post-Termination Vested Benefit, if any.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Change of Control, each Participant's then vested Benefit shall be paid to such Participant in a cash lump sum payment within thirty (30) days following the Change of Control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notwithstanding a deferral election pursuant to Section 5(b), or anything herein to the contrary, a Participant's Pre-Termination Vested Benefit shall be paid at the time and in the form described in Section 5(a)(i) if:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Participant's Pre-Termination Vested Benefit is less than
$50,000; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Participant's Termination of Employment occurs as a result of the Participant's death or
Disability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. **<u>Claims Procedure</u>.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any claim by a Participant or former Participant or Beneficiary ("<u>Claimant</u>") with respect to eligibility, participation, contributions, benefits, or other aspects of the operation of the Plan shall be made in writing to the Committee for such purpose. The Committee shall provide the Claimant with the necessary forms and make all determinations as to the right of any person to a disputed benefit. If a Claimant is denied benefits under the Plan, the Committee shall notify the Claimant in writing of the denial of the claim within ninety (90) days after the Committee receives the claim, provided that in the event of special circumstances such period may be extended. The ninety (90) day period may be extended up to ninety (90) days (for a total of one hundred eighty (180) days).

If the initial ninety (90) day period is extended, the Committee shall notify the Claimant in writing within ninety (90) days of receipt of the claim. The written notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and provide the date by which the Committee expects to make a determination with respect to the claim. If the extension is required due to the Claimant's failure to submit information necessary to decide the claim, the period for making the determination will be tolled from the date on which the extension notice is sent to the Claimant until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the Claimant responds to the Committee's request for information; or (ii) expiration of the forty-five (45) day period commencing on the date that the Claimant is notified that the requested additional information must be provided. If notice of the denial of a claim is not furnished within the required time period described herein, the claim shall be deemed denied as of the last day of such period.

If the claim is wholly or partially denied, the notice to the Claimant shall set forth:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The specific reason or reasons for the denial;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions upon which the denial is based;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) A description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to complete the claim
request and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Appropriate information as to the steps to be taken and the applicable time limits if the Claimant wishes to
submit the adverse determination for review; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) A statement of the Claimant's right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA following
an adverse determination on review.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the claim has been wholly or partially denied, the Claimant may submit the claim for review by the Committee. Any request for review of a claim must be made in writing to the Committee no later than sixty (60) days after the Claimant receives notification of denial or, if no notification was provided, the date the claim is deemed denied. The Claimant or a duly authorized representative may:

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Upon request and free of charge, be provided with reasonable access to, and copies of, relevant documents,
records, and other information relevant to the Claimant's claim; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim. The review of the
claim determination shall take into account all comments, documents, records, and other information submitted by the Claimant relating to the claim, without regard to whether such information was submitted or considered in the initial claim
determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The decision of the Committee shall be made within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Claimant's request for review unless special circumstances (including, without limitation, the need to hold a hearing) require an extension. In the event of special circumstances, the sixty (60) day period may be extended for a period of up to one hundred twenty (120) days.

If the initial sixty (60) day period is extended, the Committee shall, within sixty (60) days of receipt of the claim for review, notify the Claimant in writing. The written notice of extension shall indicate the special circumstances requiring the extension of time and provide the date by which the Committee expects to make a determination with respect to the claim upon review. If the extension is required due to the Claimant's failure to submit information necessary to decide the claim, the period for making the determination will be tolled from the date on which the extension notice is sent to the Claimant until the earlier of: (i) the date on which the Claimant responds to the Plan's request for information; or (ii) expiration of the forty-five (45) day period commencing on the date that the Claimant is notified that the requested additional information must be provided. If notice of the decision upon review is not furnished within the required time period described herein, the claim on review shall be deemed denied as of the last day of such period.

The Committee, in its sole discretion, may hold a hearing regarding the claim and request that the Claimant attend. If a hearing is held, the Claimant shall be entitled to be represented by counsel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Committee's decision upon review of the Claimant's claim shall be communicated to the Claimant in writing. If the claim upon review is denied, the notice to the Claimant shall set forth:

determination is based;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) A statement that the Claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to,
and copies of, all documents, records and other information relevant to the claim; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) A statement of the Claimant's right to bring a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Committee shall have the full power and authority to interpret, construe and administer the Plan in its sole discretion based on the provisions of the Plan and to decide any questions and settle all controversies that may arise in connection with the Plan. Both the Committee's and the Board's interpretations and construction thereof, and actions thereunder, made in the sole discretion of the Committee and the Board, including any valuation of the Benefit, any determination under this Section 6, or the amount of the payment to be made hereunder, shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons for all persons. No member of the Board or Committee shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with the interpretation and administration of the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) No officer, member, or former member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made with respect to the Plan or any benefit under it. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company and to the extent not covered by insurance, each officer, member, or former member of the Committee shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against any cost or expense (including reasonable fees of counsel) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim), and advanced amounts necessary to pay the foregoing at the earliest time and to the fullest extent permitted, arising out of any act or omission to act in connection with the Plan, except to the extent arising out of such officer's, member's or former member's own fraud. Such indemnification shall be in addition to any rights of indemnification the officers, members, or former members may have as directors under applicable law or under the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The claims procedures set forth in this section are intended to comply with United States Department of Labor Regulation § 2560.503-1 and should be construed in accordance with such regulation. In no event shall it be interpreted as expanding the rights of Claimants beyond what is required by United States Department of Labor Regulation § 2560.503-1. The Committee may at any time alter the claims procedure set forth above, so long as the revised claims procedure complies with ERISA, and the regulations issued thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) A Claimant must fully exercise all appeal rights provided herein prior to commencing a civil action under Section 502(a) of ERISA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If a claim made pursuant to this Section 6 is denied, in whole or in part, upon review (or any other adverse benefit determination is made upon review), the Claimant (or the Claimant's representative) may, to the extent provided by law, file suit in a court of appropriate jurisdiction challenging such denial or adverse benefit determination; provided, however, no court action seeking to recover benefits under the terms of the Plan may be filed by the Claimant after the earlier of the term of the applicable statute of limitations within the jurisdiction in which the lawsuit is filed or 365 days from the date of the denial (or adverse benefit determination) upon review.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **<u>Construction of Plan</u>.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Nothing contained in the Plan and no action taken pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between any Employer and the Participants, their Beneficiaries, or any other person. Any funds which may be invested under the provisions of the Plan shall continue for all purposes to be part of the general funds of the applicable Employer, and no person other than the applicable Employer shall, by virtue of the provisions of the Plan, have any interest in such funds. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from any Employer under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Employer.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Employer shall be liable for the obligations hereunder only with respect to its own employees, and not with respect to the employees of any other Employer. If a Participant works for more than one Employer in the same calendar year, then the contribution for the Participant hereunder for the calendar year shall be allocated pro-rata to each such Employer in proportion to the Participant's Base Compensation payable by each Employer to the Participant for the calendar year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All expenses incurred in administering the Plan shall be paid by the Employers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **<u>Minors and Incompetents</u>**. If the Committee finds that any person to whom payment is payable under the Plan is unable to care for their affairs because of illness or accident or is a minor, any payment due (unless a prior claim therefore shall have been made by a duly appointed guardian, committee or other legal representative) may be paid to the spouse, a child, parent, or brother or sister, or to any person deemed by the Committee to have incurred expense for such person otherwise entitled to payment, in such manner and proportions as the Committee may determine it its sole discretion. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Employer, the Committee, and the Board under the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **<u>Limitation of Rights</u>.** Nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring upon an Employee the right to continue in the employ of any Employer as an executive or in any other capacity or to interfere with the Employer's right to discharge the Employee at any time for any reason whatsoever.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **<u>Payment Not Salary</u>.** Any Benefit accrued or payable under the Plan shall not be deemed salary or other compensation to the Employee for the purposes of computing benefits to which the Employee may be entitled under any pension plan or other arrangement of any Employer for the benefit of its employees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. **<u>Severability</u>.** In case any provision of the Plan shall be illegal or invalid for any reason, said illegality or invalidity shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal and invalid provision never existed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. **<u>Withholding</u>.** Each Employer shall have the right to make such provisions as it deems necessary or appropriate to satisfy any obligations it may have to withhold federal, state, or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of payments pursuant to the Plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. **<u>Assignment</u>.** The Plan shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Employers, their successors and assigns, and the Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators, and legal representatives. In the event that any Employer sells all or substantially all of the assets of its business and the acquirer of such assets assumes the obligations hereunder, the Employer shall be released from any liability imposed herein and shall have no obligation to provide any benefits payable hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. **<u>Non-Alienation of Benefits</u>.** The benefits accrued or payable under the Plan shall not be subject to alienation, transfer, assignment, garnishment, execution, or levy of any kind, and any attempt to cause any benefits to be so subjected shall not be recognized.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. **<u>Governing Law</u>.** To the extent legally required, the Code and ERISA shall govern the Plan, and, if any provision hereof is in violation of any applicable requirement thereof, the Company reserves the right to retroactively amend the Plan to comply therewith. To the extent not governed by the Code and ERISA, the Plan shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. **<u>Amendment or Termination of Plan</u>.** The Board or an authorized committee under the Company's Bylaws (including the Committee) may, in its sole and absolute discretion, amend the Plan from time to time in any respect, prospectively or retroactively, and may at any time terminate the Plan in its entirety.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. **<u>Withdrawal or Removal of an Employer</u>.** Each Employer may withdraw from the Plan at any time, in which case it shall be deemed to maintain a separate plan for Participants who are its employees identical to the Plan except that such Employer shall be deemed to be the Company for all purposes. Each Employer shall be liable for the vested obligations hereunder with respect to its employees.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if an Associated Company that was previously approved by the Board or Committee as a participating Employer and meets the definition of Associated Company only by substituting "at least 50 percent" for "at least 80 percent" for purposes of applying Code Section 1563(a)(i)(2) and (3) and in applying Treasury Regulation § 1.414(c)-2 for purposes of determining whether a trade or business is under common control, then the Board or Committee may revoke such approval and the Associated Company will be removed as an Employer under the Plan for purposes of prospective deferrals unless and until the Board or Committee subsequently approves the Associated Company as a participating Employer again. Upon such a removal or any time thereafter, the Board or Committee may, but is not required to, elect to treat the Employer as withdrawn from the Plan, in which case the Employer shall be deemed to maintain a separate plan as set forth in the paragraph above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. **<u>Section 409A of the Code</u>.** The Plan is intended to comply with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be limited, construed, and interpreted in accordance with such intent. The Company does not guarantee, and nothing in the Plan is intended to provide a guarantee of, any particular tax treatment with respect to payments or benefits under the Plan, and the Company shall not be responsible for compliance with, or exemption from, Section 409A of the Code and the guidance issued thereunder. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each Participant's right to receive any installment payments pursuant to the Plan shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments. Whenever a payment under the Plan specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (<u>e.g.</u>, "payment within sixty (60) days following the date of such Termination of Employment"), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. **<u>Non-Exclusivity</u>.** The adoption of the Plan by an Employer shall not be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Employer to adopt such other supplemental retirement income arrangements as it deems desirable, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or limited in application.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. **<u>Number</u>.** Wherever used in the Plan, the singular shall be deemed to include the plural unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. **<u>Headings and Captions</u>**. The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only. They shall not be considered part of the Plan and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

**IN WITNESS WHEREOF**, the Company has caused the Plan to be executed this 4<sup>th</sup> day of August, 2025.

**<u>EXHIBIT A</u>**

**Change of Control** 

For purposes of this Plan, a "Change of Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if: (i) any person (as defined in Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "<u>Exchange Act</u>") and as used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof)), excluding the Company, any subsidiary thereof, any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company, or any subsidiary thereof (including any trustee of any such plan acting in the capacity of trustee) and any person who (or group which includes a person who) is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13(d)-3 under the Exchange Act) of at least 15% of the common stock of the Company (but less than 35%) becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13(d)-3 under the Exchange Act) of shares of the Company having at least 35% of the total number of votes that may be cast for the election of directors of the Company; (ii) the merger or other business combination of the Company, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or combination of the foregoing transactions, provided that such transaction constitutes an acquisition of more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of the stock of the Company, or, with respect to a sale of assets, results in the sale of 40% or more of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company (as determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code) immediately prior to such acquisition (a "<u>Transaction</u>"), other than a Transaction involving only the Company and one or more of its subsidiaries, or a Transaction immediately following which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the Transaction continue to have a majority of the voting power in the resulting entity (excluding for this purpose any stockholder owning directly or indirectly more than 10% of the shares of the other company involved in the Transaction if such stockholder is not the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13(d)-3 under the Exchange Act) of at least 15% of the common stock of the Company); or (iii) within any 12-month period beginning on or after the date hereof, the persons who were directors of the Company immediately before the beginning of such period (the "<u>Incumbent Directors</u>") shall cease (for any reason other than death) to constitute at least a majority of the board of directors of the Company or the board of directors of any successor to the Company, provided that, any director who was not a director as of the date hereof shall be deemed to be an Incumbent Director if such director was elected to the Board by, or on the recommendation of or with the approval of, at least a majority of the directors who then qualified as Incumbent Directors either actually or by prior operation of the foregoing unless such election, recommendation or approval was the result of an actual or threatened election contest of the type contemplated by Regulation 14a-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act or any successor provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control of the Company shall be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this Plan if, for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, such event would not be considered to be a "change in control event" under Section 409A of the Code.
