	 	(c)	An LTIP Participant must make his Deferral Election under this Section 3.1 no later than December 31 of the calendar year prior to the calendar year for which

Section 4.1). 

  

	4.2	Termination of Employment. In the event that a Participant elects on the Election Form to have his shares underlying the Restricted Stock Unit award and/or
Performance Stock Unit award distributed upon Termination of Employment, such shares shall be distributed to the Participant within 30 days of his Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Participant is a
Specified Employee (as such term is defined in the SERP), distribution of the shares underlying the Restricted Stock Unit award and/or Performance Stock Unit award shall occur within 30 days following the date that is six after the date of the
Participant’s Termination of Employment.

Stock Unit award and/or Performance Stock Unit award deferred until the earlier of the end of a specified period or Termination of Employment, the shares shall be distributed within 30 days of the earlier of the end of specified period or
Termination of Employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Participant is a Specified Employee (as such term is defined in the SERP) and distribution of the shares will be made upon Termination of Employment, distribution shall
occur within 30 days following the date that is six after the date of the Participant’s Termination of Employment. 

  

	4.4	Death of a Participant. In the event that a Participant dies prior to the date that he elects on the Election Form to have shares underlying the Restricted Stock
Unit award and/or Performance Stock Unit award distributed, such shares shall be distributed to the Participant’s estate within 30 days of the date of his death. 

 

	4.5	Change in Control. In the event a Change in Control occurs prior to the date that the Participant elects on the Election Form to have shares underlying the
Restricted Stock Unit award and/or Performance Stock Unit award distributed, such shares shall be distributed to the Participant within 30 days of the Change in Control provided that the Change in Control constitutes a change in control under
Section 409A. If the Change in Control does not constitute a change in control under Section 409A, the shares underlying the Restricted Stock Unit award and/or Performance Stock Unit award shall be distributed in accordance with Sections
4.1 through 4.4 of the Deferral Plan.

Performance Stock Unit award that are deferred under the Deferral Plan.

successors and assigns of the Company. In addition to any obligations imposed by law upon any successor to the Company, the Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business or assets of the Company, to expressly assume and agree to perform the requirements set forth in the Deferral Plan. 

  

	6.9	Gender, Singular and Plural. All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of the

	IV.	STOCK UNIT AWARDS 

  
 2 

	 	A.	Upon the commencement of each Year of Service as a member of the Board, each Outside Director shall be granted an award of Stock Units in an amount as shall be
established from time to time by the Board of Directors. The date of grant shall be the first business day of May. With respect to an Outside Director first elected as a director after May 1 of any year, the date of such Outside Director’s

	 	B.	The number of Stock Units to be awarded on any particular date of grant shall be equal to the amount of the award grant (expressed in dollars) divided by the closing

Company on the Common Stock. Such dividends equivalents shall be deemed invested as additional Stock Units at a share price equal to closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date the transaction is credited. 

 

	 	E.	Until distribution of shares of Common Stock from the Plan, neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey the amounts, if any, payable hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable. No
part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony, property settlement or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any
other person, or be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency. 

 Provided, however, that, in the event that a domestic relations order of any State is received by the Plan and thereafter determined to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) within the
meaning of Code section 414(p), the portion of the Account of the Participant to which such QDRO is directed shall be 

  
 3 

 
apportioned as specified in such QDRO, valued as of the business day preceding the date specified in such QDRO. Upon notice to the Committee that a QDRO is being sought with respect to a
Participant’s Account, no distribution shall be made to a Participant until such time as the status of the QDRO is determined. The alternate payee of the Participant’s Account shall thereafter participate in the Plan in accordance with its
terms, except such person shall not have the rights or benefits provided in Subsection IV.A If a QDRO is issued and the amount awarded the alternate payee exceeds the value of the Participant’s Account, the amount apportioned shall be limited
to the amount then in the account. If a QDRO so provides, benefits may be paid to an alternate payee before they would otherwise be distributable under the Plan, and no such distribution to an alternate payee shall be treated as a distribution to
the Participant for purposes of Article V. 
  

	 	F.	No Participant shall have any of the rights of a stockholder (including the right to vote and to receive dividends and other distributions (except as set forth in
Section IV(D) and (G)) with respect to Stock Units unless and until shares of Common Stock are actually issued in his/her name. 

  

	 	G.	In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution (other than normal cash
dividends) of Company assets to shareholders, or any other change affecting the Common Stock, such adjustments, if any, as are appropriate to reflect such change shall be made with respect to outstanding Stock Unit Awards. 

 

	 	H.	Upon a Change in Control of the Company all outstanding Stock Unit Awards shall be considered as having met the requirements of Section IV.C. For the purposes of this
Plan, “Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events:

Exchange Act (a “Beneficial Owner”), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company (not including in the securities beneficially owned by such person any securities acquired directly from the Company or its affiliates) representing
25% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, excluding any person who becomes such a Beneficial Owner in connection with a transaction described in clause (1) of paragraph (c) below; or

  

	 	b)	 the following individuals cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on December 15,
1998, constitute the Board of Directors and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including but not limited to a consent solicitation. relating to
the election of directors of the Company) whose appointment or election by the Board of Directors or nomination for 

  
 4 

	 	
election by the Company’s stockholders was approved or recommended by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors on
April 17, 2007 or whose appointment, election or nomination for election was previously so approved or recommended: or 

  

	 	c)	there is consummated a merger or consolidation of the Company or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company with any other corporation other than
(1) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, at least 75% of the
combined voting power of the securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (2) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the

	 	d)	the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or there is consummated an agreement for the sale or disposition by
the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to an entity, at least 75% of the combined voting power of the voting
securities of which are owned by stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d), a “Change in Control” shall not be deemed to have
occurred by virtue of the consummation of any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the record holders of the Common Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue
to have substantially the same proportionate ownership in an entity which owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Company immediately following such transaction or series of transactions.

account in the form of (1) one lump-sum payment, or (2) annual distributions over a period selected by the Participant of up to ten years. In the event a lump-sum payment is made under the Plan, the amount then standing to the
Participant’s credit in his/ her Stock Unit Award account shall be paid to the Participant on the date determined under Section V.B. In the case of a distribution over a period of years, the Company shall pay to the Participant, commencing on
the date determined under Section V.B, annual installments from the amount then standing to his or her credit in his or her Stock Unit Award account, including earnings credits on the unpaid balance to the date of distribution. The amount of each
installment shall be determined by dividing the then unpaid balance, plus earnings credits, in the Participant’s Stock Unit Award account by the number of installments remaining to be paid. If a Participant does not make an election as to

  
 6 

	 	
the manner of distribution of his or her Stock Unit Award account, such distribution shall be made in the form of a lump sum. 

This paragraph shall apply to Stock Unit Awards granted on and after January 1, 2012. By written notice to the Plan filed with the
Company’s Secretary prior to December 31 of the year prior to the year a Stock Unit Award is granted, a Participant may elect to receive the distribution of his/her Stock Unit Award account in the form of (1) one lump-sum payment, or
(2) annual distributions over a period of three to fifteen years as selected by the Participant. In the event a lump-sum payment is made under the Plan, the amount then standing to the Participant’s credit in his/ her Stock Unit Award
account shall be paid to the Participant on the date determined under Section V.B. In the case of a distribution over a period of years, the Company shall pay to the Participant, commencing on the date determined under Section V.B, annual
installments from the amount then standing to his or her credit in his or her Stock Unit Award account. The amount of each installment shall be determined by dividing the then unpaid balance in the Participant’s Stock Unit Award account by the
number of installments remaining to be paid. If a Participant does not make an election as to the manner of distribution of his or her Stock Unit Award account, such distribution shall be made in the form of a lump sum. 

 

	 	D.	In the event of a Participant’s death, the balance of the Participant’s Stock Unit Award account shall be distributed to the Participant’s
Beneficiary(ies) in a lump-sum payment within 30 days following the Participant’s death. A Participant may change Beneficiary designations by filing a subsequent notice with the Secretary of the Company. If a Participant does not make a
Beneficiary designation, or if the Beneficiary has predeceased the Participant, such distribution shall be made as a lump-sum to his/her estate. 

  

	 	E.	 Participants may, (i) by notice filed with the Company prior to December 31st of any year, make changes of distribution elections on a prospective basis with respect to future grants of Stock Unit
Awards; and (ii) by notice filed with the Company, make changes of distribution elections with respect to prior deferred compensation as long as (A) any such new distribution election is made at least one year prior to the date that the
commencement of the distribution would otherwise have occurred and (B) the revised commencement date is at least five years later than the date that the commencement of the distribution would otherwise have occurred (and with respect to Stock
Unit Awards granted before January 1, 2012, such an election may not defer payment beyond the later of the January following the Participant’s 72nd birthday or the Participant’s termination of service as a director). For the purposes of this subsection V.E,
with respect to Stock Unit Awards granted before January 1, 2012, if a Participant has elected a distribution in installments, each installment shall be deemed a separate election. With respect to Stock Unit Awards granted on and after
January 1, 2012, if a Participant has elected a distribution in installments, installment payments shall be treated as one payment.

	 	F.	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, if the Board, by vote of the Outside Directors, other than the Participant making the claim, shall determine in its
sole discretion that the time of payment of a Participant’s Stock Unit Award account should be advanced because of protracted illness or other undue hardship, then the Board may advance the time or times of payment (whether before or after the
date of Participant’s termination of service as a Director) of an amount or amounts needed to meet the emergency in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 

 

	 	G.	Distribution in Case of Certain Tax Events – If, with respect to any Participant, the Plan fails to meet the requirements of the Code with respect to the
deferral of tax liability, the Company may accelerate distribution from a Participant’s Account amounts sufficient to meet such Participant’s resulting Federal, State, Local and/or Foreign tax liability (including any interest and
penalties). 

  

	VI.	FURTHER CONDITIONS 

  

	 	A.	Unless the shares of Common Stock to be distributed pursuant to the Plan have been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act prior
to issuance, the Participant receiving such shares must represent in writing to the Company that such shares of Common Stock are being acquired for investment purposes only and not with a view towards the further resale or distribution thereof and
must supply to the Company such other documentation as may be required by the Company, unless in the opinion of counsel to the Company such representation, agreement or documentation is not necessary to comply with the Securities Act.

  

	 	B.	The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Common Stock until they have been listed on each securities exchange on which the shares of Common Stock may
then be listed or until there has been qualification under or compliance with such state or federal laws, rules or regulations as the Company may deem applicable. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to obtain such listing, qualification and
compliance. 

  

	 	C.	The Committee may make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Company is required by any
law or regulation of any governmental authority, whether federal, state or local, domestic or foreign, to withhold in connection with the award of Stock Units or the distribution of any Common Stock, including, but not limited to (i) the
withholding of delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock until the Participant reimburses the Company for the amount the Company is required to withhold with respect to such taxes, (ii) the canceling of any number of shares of Common
Stock issuable in an amount sufficient to reimburse the Company for the amount it is required to so withhold or (iii) withholding the amount due from any such Participant’s other compensation.

forfeiture; or (iii) the first year in which payment is administratively practicable. 
 The termination of the Plan shall not adversely
affect any Participant or Beneficiary who has become entitled to the payment of any benefits under the Plan as of the date of termination.
