The
Company hereby amends and restates, effective as of April 1, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Arconic

defined herein are defined in Section 1 hereof.

 

	SECTION 1.	DEFINITIONS. As hereinafter used:

“Applicable Multiplier” shall mean (a) in the case of a Tier I Employee, three (3), (b) in the case of
a Tier II Employee, two (2), and (c) in the case of a Tier III Employee, one and one-half (1.5); provided, however,
that, with respect to an Eligible Employee who incurs a Severance Event during the three-year period immediately preceding such
individual’s Mandatory Retirement Age, such multiplier shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of full and partial months remaining until such Eligible Employee attains Mandatory Retirement Age, and the denominator of which
is thirty-six (36).

 

1.3             
“Applicable Period” shall mean (a) in the case of a Tier I Employee, the thirty-six (36)-month period

period immediately following such Tier II Employee’s Severance Date, and (c) in the case of a Tier III Employee, the eighteen
(18)-month period immediately following such Tier III Employee’s Severance Date; provided, however, that, with
respect to an Eligible Employee who incurs a Severance Event during the three-year period immediately preceding such individual’s
Mandatory Retirement Age, such period shall be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full and partial
months remaining until such Eligible Employee attains Mandatory Retirement Age, and the denominator of which is thirty-six (36).

 

1.4             
“Beneficial Owner” shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act.

to the Eligible Employee by the Board, which demand specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that the Eligible
Employee has not substantially performed the Eligible Employee’s duties, or (b) the willful engaging by the Eligible Employee
in conduct that is demonstrably and materially injurious to the Company, monetarily or otherwise. For purposes of clauses (a)
and (b) of this definition, (i) no act, or failure to act, on the Eligible Employee’s part shall be deemed “willful”
unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Eligible Employee not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Eligible
Employee’s act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company and (ii) in the event of a dispute concerning
the application of this provision, no claim by the Company that Cause exists shall be given effect unless the Board determines
that it has been established by clear and convincing evidence that Cause exists and a resolution to that effect is adopted by

if (i) the Eligible Employee’s Separation from Service occurs because his employment is terminated by the Employer without
Cause prior to a Change in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and such termination was at the request or

	SECTION
2.	BENEFITS.

 

2.1              Severance
Payments and Benefits. Each Severed Employee shall be entitled, subject to Section 2.4, to receive the following payments
and benefits from the Company.

 

    -6-

     

    

 

(a)               
Severance Pay. A lump sum cash amount (the “Severance Pay”) equal to the sum of (i) the product
of (A) the sum of (1) the Severed Employee’s annual base salary, and (2) the Severed Employee’s target annual cash
incentive compensation as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control, and (B) the Applicable Multiplier, and (ii) the
product of (A) such target annual cash incentive compensation and (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days
elapsed through the Severance Date in the fiscal year during which the Severance Date occurs and the denominator of which is 365
(or 366, if such fiscal year is a leap year). For purposes of this Section 2.1(a), annual base salary shall be the higher of the
Severed Employee’s (x) base monthly salary in the calendar month immediately preceding a Change in Control and (y) base monthly
salary in the calendar month immediately preceding the Severed Employee’s Severance Date (in each case, without regard to
any reductions therein which constitute Good Reason), multiplied by twelve (12).

 

(b)               
Benefits. During the Applicable Period, the Company shall arrange to provide the Severed Employee and anyone entitled
to claim through the Severed Employee life, accident and health (including medical, behavioral, prescription drug, dental and vision)
benefits substantially similar to those provided to the Severed Employee and anyone entitled to claim through the Severed Employee
immediately prior to the Severed Employee’s Severance Date or, if more favorable to the Severed Employee, those provided
to the Severed Employee and those entitled to claim through the Severed Employee immediately prior to the first occurrence of an
event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, at no greater after-tax cost to the Severed Employee than the after tax cost to
the Severed Employee immediately prior to such Severance Date or occurrence.

 

(c)                DC
Pension Plans. In addition to the retirement benefits to which the Severed Employee is entitled under each DC Pension Plan,
the Company shall pay the Severed Employee a lump sum cash amount equal to the product of (i) the annual value of Company contributions
or allocations (excluding any employee deferrals or contributions, and earnings) to all DC Pension Plans, on behalf of the employee
(determined based on the rate of contributions and allocations in effect as of immediately prior to such Change in Control, but
assuming such contributions and allocations are applied to the annualized base salary plus target annual cash incentive compensation
as determined in Section 2.1(a)) and (ii) the Applicable Multiplier.

 

    -7-

     

    

 

(d)                DB
Pension Plans. If the Severed Employee would have become eligible for an early retirement subsidy with respect to such Severed
Employee’s retirement benefits under any DB Pension Plan had the Severed Employee remained employed through the end of the
Applicable Period, in addition to the retirement benefits to which the Severed Employee is entitled under each DB Pension Plan,
the Company shall pay the Severed Employee a lump sum cash amount equal to the excess of the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate
retirement pension (taking into account any early retirement subsidies associated therewith and determined in accordance with
the normal form of payment under each DB Pension Plan, commencing at the date on or after the last day of the Applicable Period
as of which the actuarial equivalent of such form of payment is greatest) which the Severed Employee would have accrued and vested
in under the terms of all DB Pension Plans determined: 

 

(i)               without
regard to any amendment to any DB Pension Plan made subsequent to a Change in Control and on or prior to the date of the Severed
Employee’s Severance Date, which amendment adversely affects in any manner the computation of retirement benefits thereunder,
and

 

(ii)              solely
for purposes of determining eligibility for pension benefits, including all applicable retirement subsidies, as if the Severed
Employee had accumulated (after the Severed Employee’s Severance Date) the number of additional months of age and service
credit thereunder that the Severed Employee would have accumulated had the Severed Employee remained employed by the Company during
the Applicable Period;

 

over the actuarial equivalent
of the aggregate retirement pension (taking into account any early retirement subsidies associated therewith and determined in
accordance with the normal form of payment under each DB Pension Plan, commencing at the date on or after the Severed Employee’s
Severance Date as of which the actuarial equivalent of such form of payment is greatest) that the Severed Employee had accrued
and vested in pursuant to the provisions of the DB Pension Plans as of the Severed Employee’s Severance Date.

 

For purposes of this Section
2.1(d), “actuarial equivalent” shall be determined based upon the Severed Employee’s age as of the Severed Employee’s
Severance Date using the same assumptions utilized under the Arconic Corp. Pension Plan A, Section 8.3(d)(ii) or the successor
to such provision (without regard to applicable dollar limitations ($5,000 as of January 1, 2020)) immediately prior to the Severed
Employee’s Severance Date or, if more favorable to the Severed Employee, immediately prior to the first occurrence of an
event or circumstance constituting Good Reason.

 

(e)                Post-Retirement
Benefit Plans. If the Severed Employee would have become entitled to benefits under the Company’s post-retirement health
care plans, as in effect immediately prior to the Severed Employee’s Severance Date or, if more favorable to the Severed
Employee, as in effect immediately prior to the first occurrence of an event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, had the
Severed Employee’s employment terminated at any time during the Applicable Period, the Company shall provide such post-retirement
health care benefits to the Severed Employee and the Severed Employee’s dependents commencing on the later of (i) the date
on which such coverage would have first become available in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan and (ii) the date
on which benefits described in Section 2.1(b) terminate, and ending upon the death of the Eligible Employee. Any such benefit
that is dependent on service or compensation shall be determined as if the Severed Employee had accumulated (after the Severed
Employee’s Severance Date) the number of additional months of age and service credit thereunder that the Severed Employee
would have accumulated had the Severed Employee remained employed by the Company through the end of the Applicable Period, and
as if the Severed Employee had been credited with compensation for each full calendar month following the calendar month of the
Severed Employee’s Severance Date up to the end of the Applicable Period equal to the Severed Employee’s annualized
based salary as determined in Section 2.1(a), plus the Severed Employee’s target annual cash incentive compensation as determined
in Section 2.1(a), divided by twelve (12). Except for the additional service and compensation credit during the Applicable Period,
nothing herein is intended to provide the Severed Employee with benefits that exceed the benefits provided to other participants
in the applicable post-retirement health care plans, as in effect from time to time.

 

    -8-

     

    

 

(f)                 The
Company shall provide the Severed Employee with reasonable outplacement services suitable to the Severed Employee’s position
through the date that is six (6) months following the Severed Employee’s Severance Date or, if earlier, the date on which
the Severed Employee first accepts an offer of employment from a new employer.

 

(g)                The
amounts described in Sections 2.1(a), (c) and (d) shall be paid to the Eligible Employee in a cash lump sum as soon as practicable
after the Severance Date but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the Severance Date; provided that, if the Severed
Employee is, as of the Severance Date, a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code as determined
in accordance with the methodology duly adopted by the Company as in effect on the Severance Date, then such lump sum amounts
shall instead be paid on the first business day that is at least six (6) months after the Severance Date (or if sooner, upon the
death of the Severed Employee) (the “Delayed Payment Date”), with interest at the applicable federal rate provided
for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code, from the first business day after the Severance Date through the Delayed Payment Date.

 

2.2              Reduction
of Certain Payments.

 

(a)               Anything
in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, if the Accounting Firm (as defined below) shall determine that receipt of all Payments
(as defined below) of any Severed Employee would subject the Severed Employee to the Excise Tax, the Accounting Firm shall determine
whether to reduce any of the Payments paid or payable pursuant to this Plan (the “Plan Payments”) so that the
Parachute Value (as defined below) of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount (as defined below). The Plan
Payments shall be so reduced only if the Accounting Firm determines that the Severed Employee would have a greater Net After-Tax
Receipt (as defined below) of aggregate Payments if the Plan Payments were so reduced. If the Accounting Firm determines that
the Severed Employee would not have a greater Net After-Tax Receipt of aggregate Payments if the Plan Payments were so reduced,
the Severed Employee shall receive all Plan Payments to which the Participant is entitled hereunder.

 

(b)               If
the Accounting Firm determines that aggregate Plan Payments should be reduced so that the Parachute Value of all Payments, in
the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount, the Company shall promptly give the Severed Employee notice to that effect and a
copy of the detailed calculation thereof. All determinations made by the Accounting Firm under this Section 2.2 shall be binding
upon the Company, its Affiliates and the Severed Employee and shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable and in no event
later than fifteen (15) days following the Severance Date. For purposes of reducing the Plan Payments so that the Parachute Value
of all Payments, in the aggregate, equals the Safe Harbor Amount, only amounts payable under the Plan (and no other Payments)
shall be reduced. The reduction of the amounts payable hereunder, if applicable, shall be made by reducing the Plan Payments that
have a Parachute Value in the following order: Section 2.1(c), Section 2.1(d), Section 2.1(a), Section 2.1(b), Section 2.1(e),
Section 2.1(f), in each case, beginning with payments or benefits that do not constitute non-qualified deferred compensation and
reducing payments or benefits in reverse chronological order beginning with those that are to be paid or provided the farthest
in time from the Severance Date, based on the Accounting Firm’s determination. All reasonable fees and expenses of the Accounting
Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.

 

    -9-

     

    

 

(c)                To
the extent requested by the Severed Employee, the Company and its Affiliates shall cooperate with the Severed Employee in good
faith in valuing, and the Accounting Firm shall take into account the value of, services provided or to be provided by the Severed
Employee (including, without limitation, the Severed Employee’s agreeing to refrain from performing services pursuant to
a covenant not to compete or similar covenant, before, on or after the date of a change in ownership or control of the Company
(within the meaning of Q&A-2(b) of the final regulations under Section 280G of the Code)), such that payments in respect of
such services may be considered reasonable compensation within the meaning of Q&A-9 and Q&A-40 to Q&A-44 of the Treasury
Regulations under Section 280G of the Code and/or exempt from the definition of the term “parachute payment” within
the meaning of Q&A-2(a) of the Treasury Regulations under Section 280G of the Code in accordance with Q&A-5(a) of the

reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records or other information in the Company’s possession relevant to
his or her claim and may submit comments, documents, records and other information relating to the claim, which shall be taken

is wholly or partially denied on review, such written notification shall (i) state the specific reason or reasons for the denial,
(ii) make specific reference to the relevant Plan provisions on which the denial is based, (iii) a statement of the Eligible Employee’s
entitlement, upon written request to the Committee and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records

3.3, shall be settled exclusively by arbitration in Wilmington, Delaware. All claims, disputes and controversies shall be submitted
to the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution (“CPR”) in accordance with the CPR’s rules then in effect;
provided, however, that the evidentiary standards set forth in this Agreement shall apply. The claim, dispute or
controversy shall be heard and decided by three (3) arbitrators selected from CPR’s employment panel. The arbitrators’

Plan may not be terminated, or amended in any manner that adversely affects any Eligible Employee (other than an Eligible Employee
whose employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries commences subsequent to the applicable Change in Control), (i) within two
(2) years immediately following a Change in Control, or (ii) in anticipation of a specific contemplated Change in Control.

 

	SECTION
4.	GENERAL PROVISIONS.

 

4.1              Except
as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be assignable or transferable,
in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, by execution, levy, garnishment,
attachment, pledge or in any manner. No attempted assignment or transfer of any such right or interest shall be effective, and
no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation or liability of
such Eligible Employee. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns.
The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform the obligations set forth
in the Plan in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to do so.

 

4.2              Neither
the establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor the payment of
any benefits shall be construed as giving any Eligible Employee, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained in the service
of the Company, and all Eligible Employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had never been
adopted.

 

    -14-

     

    

 

4.3              If
any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

 

4.4              If
a Severed Employee dies while any amount is still payable to such Severed Employee, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided
herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the executor, personal representative or administrators of
the Severed Employee’s estate.

 

4.5              The
headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan, and shall
not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

 

4.6              The
Plan shall not be funded. No Eligible Employee shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of the Company which may be
applied by the Company to the payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan.

 

4.7              Any
notice or other communication required or permitted pursuant to the terms hereof shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have
been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight
courier, postage prepaid, to the Company at its corporate headquarters address, to the attention of the Chief Legal Officer of
the Company, or to the Eligible Employee at the Eligible Employee’s most recent home address reflected on the books and
records of the Company.

 

4.8              This
Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles of conflicts
of law.

 

4.9              Payments
to a Severed Employee under this Plan shall be in lieu of any severance or similar payments that otherwise might be payable under
any plan, program, policy or agreement sponsored or maintained by the Company that provides severance benefits to employees upon
termination of employment, except that the payment or acceleration of equity or equity-based awards shall be in addition to, rather
than in lieu of, any payment or benefits due under the Plan.

 

4.10            The
obligations under this Plan are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or an exemption or exclusion
therefrom and shall in all respects be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment of compensation
under this Plan shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation for purposes of applying Section 409A of the Code. All
payments to be made upon a termination of employment under this Plan may only be made upon a “separation from service”
under Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary in order to avoid the imposition of penalty taxes on a Severed Employee
pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. In no event may a Severed Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year
of any payment under this Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, all reimbursements and in-kind benefits
provided under this Plan that are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section
409A of the Code, including without limitation, where applicable, the requirement that (a) the amount of expenses eligible for
reimbursement, or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or
in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year; (b) the reimbursement of any eligible fees and expenses shall be
made no later than the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the applicable fees and expenses were incurred;
and (c) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

Severance Payments and Benefits. Each Severed Employee shall be entitled, subject to Section 2.2, and subject to
the Severed Employee executing a general release of claims in favor of the Company and its Affiliates in a form satisfactory to
the Company and such release becoming effective and irrevocable no later than the date that is sixty (60) days following the Severance
Date (the “Release Date”), to receive the following payments and benefits from the Company. If the Severed Employee
does not satisfy such release requirement, then the Severed Employee shall not be entitled to receive the payments described in
Sections 2.1(a), (c) and (d) and the Company shall have no obligation to provide the benefits described in Section 2.1(b) after
the end of the month in which the Release Date occurs.

 

(a)              
Severance Pay. A lump sum cash amount (the “Severance Pay”) equal to (i) in the case of a Tier
I Employee, two times the sum of the Severed Employee’s (A) annual base salary as of the Severance Date, and (B) target annual
cash incentive compensation with respect to the fiscal year of the Company in which the Severance Date occurs, (ii) in the case
of a Tier II Employee, one times the sum of the Severed Employee’s (A) annual base salary as of the Severance Date, and (B)
target annual cash incentive compensation with respect to the fiscal year of the Company in which the Severance Date occurs, and
(iii) in the case of a Tier III Employee, the Severed Employee’s annual base salary as of the Severance Date; provided
that, if the amount of the cash severance pay for such Severed Employee calculated under the Arconic Corp. Involuntary Separation
Pay Plan, as in effect from time to time, or any successor plan, is greater than the amount calculated in accordance with this
Section 2.1(a), then such Severed Employee’s Severance Pay shall equal such greater amount.

 

(b)             
Benefits. During the Applicable Period, the Company shall arrange to provide the Severed Employee and anyone entitled
to claim through the Severed Employee life, accident and health (including medical, behavioral, prescription drug, dental and vision)
benefits substantially similar to those provided to the Severed Employee and anyone entitled to claim through the Severed Employee
immediately prior to the Severed Employee’s Severance Date or, if more favorable to the Severed Employee, those provided
to the Severed Employee and those entitled to claim through the Severed Employee immediately prior to the first occurrence of an
event or circumstance constituting Good Reason, at no greater after-tax cost to the Severed Employee than the after-tax cost to
the Severed Employee immediately prior to such Severance Date or occurrence.

 

    	 	-3-	 

     

    

 

(c)              
Defined Contribution Pension Plans. For a Severed Employee who is eligible to receive the Employer Retirement Income
Contributions (ERIC) under any DC Pension Plan, in addition to the retirement benefits to which the Severed Employee is entitled
under each DC Pension Plan or any successor plan thereto, the Company shall pay the Severed Employee a lump sum cash amount equal
to the product of (i) the ERIC contribution percentage in effect for the Severed Employee on the Severance Date, multiplied by
(ii) the Severed Employee’s annual base salary plus target annual cash incentive compensation as determined in Section 2.1(a)),
multiplied by (iii) the number of years during the Applicable Period.

 

(d)             
Defined Benefit Pension Plans. For a Severed Employee who participates in any DB Pension Plan, in addition to the
retirement benefits to which the Severed Employee is entitled under each DB Pension Plan, the Company shall pay the Severed Employee
a lump sum cash amount equal to the excess of (i) the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate retirement pension (taking into account
any early retirement subsidies associated therewith and determined in accordance with the normal form of payment under each DB
Pension Plan, commencing at the date on or after the last day of the Applicable Period as of which the actuarial equivalent of
such form of payment is greatest) which the Severed Employee would have accrued and vested in under the terms of all DB Pension
Plans determined for all purposes of determining pension benefits and eligibility for such benefits, including all applicable retirement
subsidies, as if the Severed Employee had accumulated (after the Severed Employee’s Severance Date) the number of additional
months of age and service credit thereunder that the Severed Employee would have accumulated had the Severed Employee remained
employed by the Company during the Applicable Period, over (ii) the actuarial equivalent of the aggregate retirement pension (taking
into account any early retirement subsidies associated therewith and determined in accordance with the normal form of payment under
each DB Pension Plan, commencing at the date on or after the Severed Employee’s Severance Date as of which the actuarial
equivalent of such form of payment is greatest) that the Severed Employee had accrued and vested in pursuant to the provisions
of the DB Pension Plans as of the Severed Employee’s Severance Date.

 

For purposes of this Section 2.1(d), “actuarial
equivalent” shall be determined based upon the Severed Employee’s age as of the Severed Employee’s Severance
Date using the same assumptions utilized under the Arconic Corp. Pension Plan A, Section 8.3(d)(ii) or the successor to such provision
(without regard to applicable dollar limitations ($5,000 as of January 1, 2020)) immediately prior to the Severed Employee’s
Severance Date.

 

(e)              
The amounts described in Sections 2.1(a), (c) and (d) shall be paid to the Eligible Employee in a cash lump sum on the Release
Date; provided that, if the Severed Employee is, as of the Severance Date, a “specified employee” within the
meaning of Section 409A of the Code as determined in accordance with the methodology duly adopted by the Company as in effect on
the Severance Date, then, to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of the excise tax under Section 409A of the Code, such
lump sum amounts shall instead be paid on the first business day that is at least six (6) months after the Severance Date (or if
sooner, upon the death of the Severed Employee) (the “Delayed Payment Date”), with interest at the applicable
federal rate provided for in Section 7872(f)(2)(A) of the Code, from the first business day after the Severance Date through the
Delayed Payment Date.

 

    	 	-4-	 

     

    

 

2.2          
Withholding. The Company shall be entitled to withhold from amounts to be paid to any Eligible Employee hereunder
any federal, state or local withholding or other taxes or charges (or foreign equivalents of such taxes or charges) which it is

Section
5.       GENERAL PROVISIONS.

 

5.1         Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be assignable
or transferable, in whole or in part, either directly or by operation of law or otherwise, including, without limitation, by execution,
levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge or in any manner. No attempted assignment or transfer of any such right or interest shall
be effective, and no right or interest of any Eligible Employee under the Plan shall be liable for, or subject to, any obligation
or liability of such Eligible Employee. The Plan shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors
and assigns.

 

5.2        
Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor
the payment of any benefits shall be construed as giving any Eligible Employee, or any person whomsoever, the right to be retained
in the service of the Company, and all Eligible Employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same extent as if the Plan had
never been adopted.

 

5.3         If
any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other
provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such provisions had not been included.

 

5.4         If
a Severed Employee dies while any amount is still payable to such Severed Employee, all such amounts, unless otherwise provided
herein, shall be paid in accordance with the terms of this Plan to the executor, personal representative or administrators of
the Severed Employee’s estate.

 

5.5         The
headings and captions herein are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan, and shall
not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

 

    	 	-7-	 

     

    

 

5.6          
The Plan shall not be funded. No Eligible Employee shall have any right to, or interest in, any assets of the Company which
may be applied by the Company to the payment of benefits or other rights under this Plan.

 

5.7          
Any notice or other communication required or permitted pursuant to the terms hereof shall be in writing and shall be deemed
to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, or
by overnight courier, postage prepaid, to the Company at its corporate headquarters address, to the attention of the Chief Legal
Officer of the Company, or to the Eligible Employee at the Eligible Employee’s most recent home address reflected on the
books and records of the Company.

 

5.8          
This Plan shall be construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its principles
of conflicts of law.

 

5.9         
Payments to a Severed Employee under this Plan shall be in lieu of any severance or similar payments that otherwise might
be payable under any plan, program, policy or agreement sponsored or maintained by the Company that provides severance benefits
to employees upon termination of employment, except that (a) the payment or acceleration of equity or equity-based awards shall
be in addition to, rather than in lieu of, any payment or benefits due under the Plan and (b) if a Severed Employee receives severance
payments under the Company’s Change in Control Severance Plan in connection with such Severed Employee’s Severance
Event, then no payments will be provided to such Severed Employee under this Plan.

 

5.10        
The obligations under this Plan are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or an exemption
or exclusion therefrom and shall in all respects be administered in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Each payment of compensation
under this Plan shall be treated as a separate payment of compensation for purposes of applying Section 409A of the Code. All payments
to be made upon a termination of employment under this Plan may only be made upon a “separation from service” under
Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary in order to avoid the imposition of penalty taxes on a Severed Employee pursuant
to Section 409A of the Code. In no event may a Severed Employee, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of any payment
under this Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, all reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under
this Plan that are subject to Section 409A of the Code shall be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the
Code, including without limitation, where applicable, the requirement that (a) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement,
or in-kind benefits provided, during a calendar year may not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits
to be provided, in any other calendar year; (b) the reimbursement of any eligible fees and expenses shall be made no later than
the last day of the calendar year following the year in which the applicable fees and expenses were incurred; and (c) the right
to reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.
