 ARTICLE 3 
  
 ADMINISTRATION 
  
 3.1 Administration of Plan. Authority to control and manage the operation and administration of the Plan shall be vested in the Board, which may delegate such responsibilities in whole or in part to one or more
Committees. Members of the Committee may be appointed from time to time by, and shall serve at the pleasure of, the Board. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board may limit the composition of the Committee to those persons necessary to comply with
the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and Section 16 and Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. No member of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith by
the Committee with respect to the Plan or any Award thereunder. 
  
 3.2 Committee Authority. The Committee shall have such powers and authority as may be necessary or appropriate for the Committee to carry out its functions as described in the Plan. Subject to the express limitations of the Plan, the
Committee shall have authority in its discretion to determine the Eligible Persons to whom, and the time or times at which, Awards may be granted, the number of shares, units or other rights subject to each Award, the exercise, base or purchase
price of an Award (if any), the time or times at which an Award will become vested, exercisable or payable, the performance goals and other conditions of an Award, the duration of the Award, and all other terms of the Award. Subject to the terms of
the Plan, the Committee shall have the authority to amend the terms of an Award in any manner that is not inconsistent with the Plan, provided that no such action shall adversely affect the rights of a Participant with respect to an outstanding
Award without the Participant’s consent. The Committee shall also have discretionary authority to interpret the Plan, to make factual determinations under the Plan, and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for Plan
administration, including, without limitation, to correct any defect, to supply any omission or to reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award Agreement hereunder. The Committee may prescribe, amend, and rescind rules and regulations
relating to the Plan. The Committee’s determinations under the Plan need not be uniform and may be made by the Committee selectively among Participants and Eligible Persons, whether or not such persons are similarly situated. The Committee
shall, in its discretion, consider such factors as it deems relevant in making its interpretations, determinations and actions under the Plan, including, without limitation, the recommendations or advice of any officer or employee of the Company or
such attorneys, consultants, accountants or other advisors as it may select. All interpretations, determinations and actions by the Committee shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties. 
  
 3.3 Delegation of Authority. The Committee shall have the right, from
time to time, to delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority of the Committee to grant and determine the terms and conditions of Awards granted under the Plan, subject to the requirements of Section 157(c) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (or any successor provision) and such other limitations as the Committee shall determine. In no event shall any 

  

 6 

 
such delegation of authority be permitted with respect to Awards to any members of the Board or to any Eligible Person who is subject to Rule 16b-3 under the
Exchange Act or Section 162(m) of the Code. The Committee shall also be permitted to delegate, to any appropriate officer or employee of the Company, responsibility for performing certain ministerial functions under the Plan. In the event that
the Committee’s authority is delegated to officers or employees in accordance with the foregoing, all provisions of the Plan relating to the Committee shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the foregoing by treating any such reference
as a reference to such officer or employee for such purpose. Any action undertaken in accordance with the Committee’s delegation of authority hereunder shall have the same force and effect as if such action was undertaken directly by the
Committee and shall be deemed for all purposes of the Plan to have been taken by the Committee. 
  
 3.4 Grants to Non-Employee Directors. Any Awards or formula for granting Awards under the Plan made to Non-Employee Directors shall be approved by
the Board. With respect to awards to such directors, all rights, powers and authorities vested in the Committee under the Plan shall instead be exercised by the Board, and all provisions of the Plan relating to the Committee shall be interpreted in
a manner consistent with the foregoing by treating any such reference as a reference to the Board for such purpose. 
  
 ARTICLE 4 
  
 SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN 
  
 4.1 Maximum
Share Limitations. Subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued and sold under all Awards granted under the Plan shall be 7,500,000 shares. Of such aggregate
Plan limit, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under all Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Unit Awards and Stock Awards under the Plan shall be limited to 3,000,000 shares. Additionally, with respect to Stock
Appreciation Rights (or “SARs”), when a SAR is exercised, the number of shares subject to such SAR Award Agreement shall be counted against the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan, regardless of the
number of shares of Common Stock used to settle such SAR upon exercise. Shares of Common Stock issued and sold under the Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares or shares held in the Company’s treasury. To the extent that any Award
involving the issuance of shares of Common Stock is forfeited, cancelled, returned to the Company for failure to satisfy vesting requirements or other conditions of the Award, or otherwise terminates without an issuance of shares of Common Stock
being made thereunder, the shares of Common Stock covered thereby will no longer be counted against the foregoing maximum share limitations and may again be made subject to Awards under the Plan pursuant to such limitations. 
  
 4.2 Individual Participant Limitations. The maximum number of shares
of Common Stock that may be subject to Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Unit Awards and Stock Awards, in the aggregate, granted to any one Participant during any fiscal year period shall be 500,000
shares. The foregoing limitations shall be applied on an aggregate basis taking into account Awards granted to a Participant under the Plan as well as awards of the same type granted to a Participant under any other equity-based compensation plan of
the Company or any Affiliated Company. 
  
 4.3 Adjustments.
If there shall occur any change with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other distribution with respect
to the shares of Common Stock, or any merger, reorganization, consolidation, combination, spin-off or other similar corporate change, or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the Committee may, in the manner and to the extent that it deems
appropriate and equitable to the Participants and consistent with the terms of the Plan, cause an adjustment to be made in (i) the maximum number and kind of shares provided in Section 4.1 and Section 4.2 hereof, (ii) the number
and kind of shares of Common Stock, units, or other rights subject to then outstanding Awards, (iii) the exercise or base price for each share or unit or other right subject to then outstanding Awards, and (iv) any other terms of an Award
that are affected by the event. 
  

 7 

 ARTICLE 5 
  

PARTICIPATION AND AWARDS 
  
 5.1 Designations of Participants. All Eligible Persons are eligible to be designated by the Committee to receive Awards and become Participants
under the Plan. The Committee has the authority, in its discretion, to determine and designate from time to time those Eligible Persons who are to be granted Awards, the types of Awards to be granted and the number of shares of Common Stock or units
subject to Awards granted under the Plan. In selecting Eligible Persons to be Participants and in determining the type and amount of Awards to be granted under the Plan, the Committee shall consider any and all factors that it deems relevant or
appropriate. 
  
 5.2 Determination of Awards. The Committee
shall determine the terms and conditions of all Awards granted to Participants in accordance with its authority under Section 3.2 hereof. An Award may consist of one type of right or benefit hereunder or of two or more such rights or benefits
granted in tandem or in the alternative. In the case of any fractional share or unit resulting from the grant, vesting, payment or crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents under an Award, the Committee shall have the discretionary authority to
(i) disregard such fractional share or unit, (ii) round such fractional share or unit to the nearest lower or higher whole share or unit, or (iii) convert such fractional share or unit into a right to receive a cash payment. To the
extent deemed necessary by the Committee, an Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement as described in Section 14.1 hereof. 
  
 ARTICLE 6 
  
 NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS 
  
 6.1 Grant of Stock Options. A Stock Option may be granted to any Eligible Person selected by the Committee. All Stock Options granted under the Plan are Nonqualified Stock Options. 
  
 6.2 Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of a Stock Option
shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Date of Grant, provided that the Committee may in its discretion specify for any Stock Option an exercise price per share that is
higher than the Fair Market Value on the Date of Grant. 
  
 6.3
Vesting of Stock Options. The Committee shall, in its discretion, prescribe the time or times at which, or the conditions upon which, a Stock Option, or portion thereof, shall become vested and/or exercisable, and may accelerate the vesting or
exercisability of any Stock Option at any time. The requirements for vesting and exercisability of a Stock Option may be based on the continued Service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliated Company for a specified time period (or
periods), or on the attainment of specified performance goals established by the Committee in its discretion. 
  
 6.4 Term and Termination of Stock Options. The Committee shall, in its discretion, prescribe in an Award Agreement the period during which a vested
Stock Option may be exercised, provided that the maximum term of a Stock Option shall be ten years from the Date of Grant. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6 or as otherwise may be provided by the Committee, no Stock Option may be
exercised at any time during the term thereof unless the Participant is then in the Service of the Company or any Affiliated Company. 
  
 6.5 Stock Option Exercise; Tax Withholding. Subject to such terms and conditions as shall be specified in an Award Agreement, a Stock Option may be
exercised in whole or in part at any time during the term thereof by notice in the form required by the Company, together with payment of the aggregate exercise price therefore and applicable withholding tax. Payment of the exercise price shall be
made in the manner set forth in the Award Agreement, unless otherwise provided by the Committee: (i) in cash or by cash equivalent acceptable to the Committee, (ii) by payment in shares of Common Stock that have been held by the
Participant for at least six months (or such period as the Committee may deem appropriate, for accounting purposes or otherwise), valued at the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date of exercise, (iii) through an open-market,
broker-assisted sales 

  

 8 

 
transaction pursuant to which the Company is promptly delivered the amount of proceeds necessary to satisfy the exercise price, (iv) by a combination of
the methods described above or (v) by such other method as may be approved by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. In addition to, and at the time of payment of, the exercise price, the Participant shall pay to the Company the
full amount of any and all applicable income tax, employment tax and other amounts required to be withheld in connection with such exercise, payable under such of the methods described above for the payment of the exercise price as may be approved
by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement. 
  
 6.6
Limited Transferability of Stock Options. All Stock Options shall be nontransferable except (i) upon the Participant’s death, in accordance with Section 14.2 hereof or (ii) for the transfer of all or part of the Stock Option
to a Participant’s “family member” (as defined for purposes of the Form S-8 registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933), as may be approved by the Committee in its discretion at the time of proposed transfer. The transfer
of a Stock Option may be subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may in its discretion impose from time to time. Subsequent transfers of a Stock Option shall be prohibited other than in accordance with Section 14.2 hereof.

  
 6.7 Repricing Prohibited. Subject to the anti-dilution
adjustment provisions contained in Section 4.3 hereof, without the prior approval of the Company’s shareholders, evidenced by a majority of votes cast, neither the Committee nor the Board shall cause the cancellation, substitution or
amendment of a Stock Option that would have the effect of reducing the exercise price of such a Stock Option previously granted under the Plan, or otherwise approve any modification to such a Stock Option that would be treated as a
“repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements adopted by the Nasdaq Stock Market. 
  
 ARTICLE 7 
  
 STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 
  
 7.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to any Eligible Person selected by the Committee. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted on a basis that allows for the
exercise of the right by the Participant or that provides for the automatic payment of the right upon a specified date or event. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable or payable at such time or times and upon conditions as may be approved
by the Committee, provided that the Committee may accelerate the exercisability or payment of a Stock Appreciation Right at any time. 
  
 7.2 Vesting of Stock Appreciation Rights. Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan shall be subject to such vesting and exercisability
requirements as specified by the Committee in an Award Agreement. Such vesting and exercisability requirements may be based on the continued Service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliated Company for a specified time period (or
periods) or on the attainment of specified performance goals established by the Committee in its discretion. A Stock Appreciation Right will be exercisable or payable at such time or times as determined by the Committee, provided that the maximum
term of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be ten years from the Date of Grant. The base price of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the base price per share of any Stock
Appreciation Right shall not be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Date of Grant. 
  
 7.3 Payment of Stock Appreciation Rights. A Stock Appreciation Right will entitle the holder, upon exercise or other payment of the Stock
Appreciation Right, as applicable, to receive an amount determined by multiplying: (i) the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of exercise or payment of the Stock Appreciation Right over the base price of such
Stock Appreciation Right, by (ii) the number of shares as to which such Stock Appreciation Right is exercised or paid. Payment of the amount determined under the foregoing shall be made in shares of Common Stock, valued at their Fair Market
Value on the date of exercise or payment, subject to applicable tax withholding requirements. 
  
 7.4 Repricing Prohibited. Subject to the anti-dilution adjustment provisions contained in Section 4.3 hereof, without the prior approval of the Company’s shareholders, evidenced by a majority of votes
cast, neither the Committee nor the Board shall cause the cancellation, substitution or amendment of a Stock Appreciation Right that 

  

 9 

 
would have the effect of reducing the base price of such a Stock Appreciation Right previously granted under the Plan, or otherwise approve any modification
to such a Stock Appreciation Right that would be treated as a “repricing” under the then applicable rules, regulations or listing requirements adopted by Nasdaq. 
  
 7.5 Compliance with Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 7 to the contrary, all Awards of
Stock Appreciation Rights must be structured to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Committee. 
  
 ARTICLE 8 
  
 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS 
  
 8.1 Grant of Restricted Stock Awards. A Restricted Stock Award may be granted to any Eligible Person selected by the Committee. The Committee may provide that no payment is required (subject to Section 153
of the Delaware General Corporation Law or other applicable law), or require the payment by the Participant of a specified purchase price, in connection with any Restricted Stock Award. 
  
 8.2 Vesting Requirements; Repurchase Rights. The restrictions imposed on shares granted under a Restricted Stock
Award shall lapse in accordance with the vesting requirements specified by the Committee in the Award Agreement, which may be based on the continued Service of the Participant with the Company or an Affiliated Company for a specified time period (or
periods) or on the attainment of specified performance goals established by the Committee, provided that the Committee may accelerate the vesting of a Restricted Stock Award at any time. If the vesting requirements of a Restricted Stock Award shall
not be satisfied, the shares of Common Stock subject to the Award may be repurchased by the Company, at the Company’s election, at a repurchase price set forth in the Restricted Stock Award, but not less than the purchase price paid by the
Participant. 
  
 8.3 Restrictions. Shares granted under any
Restricted Stock Award may not be transferred, assigned or subject to any encumbrance, pledge, or charge until all applicable restrictions are removed or have expired, unless otherwise allowed by the Committee. The Committee may require in an Award
Agreement that certificates representing the shares granted under a Restricted Stock Award bear a legend making appropriate reference to the restrictions imposed, and that certificates representing the shares granted or sold under a Restricted Stock
Award will remain in the physical custody of an escrow holder until all restrictions are removed or have expired. 
  
 8.4 Rights as Shareholder. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 8 and the applicable Award Agreement, the Participant shall
have all rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares granted to the Participant under a Restricted Stock Award, including the right to vote the shares and receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect thereto. The
Committee may provide in an Award Agreement for the payment of dividends and distributions to the Participant at such times as paid to shareholders generally or at the times of vesting or other payment of the Restricted Stock Award. 
  
 8.5 Section 83(b) Election. If a Participant makes an election
pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to a Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall file, within 30 days following the Date of Grant, a copy of such election with the Company and with the Internal Revenue Service, in
accordance with the regulations under Section 83 of the Code. The Committee may provide in an Award Agreement that the Restricted Stock Award is conditioned upon the Participant’s making or refraining from making an election with respect
to the Award under Section 83(b) of the Code.

 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARDS 
  
 9.1 Grant of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. A Restricted Stock Unit
Award may be granted to any Eligible Person selected by the Committee. The value of each stock unit under a Restricted Stock Unit Award is equal to the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the applicable date or time period of determination, as
specified by the Committee. A Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee 

  

 10 

 
shall determine. A Restricted Stock Unit Award may be granted together with a dividend equivalent right with respect to the shares of Common Stock subject to
the Award, which may be accumulated and may be deemed reinvested in additional stock units, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. 
  
 9.2 Vesting of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. On the Date of Grant, the Committee shall in its discretion determine the vesting requirements with
respect to a Restricted Stock Unit Award, which may include the attainment of specified performance goals established by the Committee. Such vesting requirements shall be set forth in the Award Agreement, provided that the Committee may accelerate
the vesting of a Restricted Stock Unit Award at any time. 
  
 9.3 Payment of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. A Restricted Stock Unit Award shall become payable to a Participant at the time or times determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement, as determined by the Committee.

Unit Award until such time as shares of Common Stock are delivered to the Participant pursuant to the terms of the Award Agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE 10 
  
 STOCK AWARDS 
  
 10.1 Grant of Stock Awards. A Stock Award may be granted to any Eligible Person selected by the Committee. A Stock Award may be granted for past services, in lieu of bonus or other cash compensation, as
directors’ compensation or for any other valid purpose as determined by the Committee. A Stock Award granted to an Eligible Person represents shares of Common Stock that are issued without restrictions on transfer and other incidents of
ownership and free of forfeiture conditions, except as otherwise provided in the Plan and the Award Agreement. The Committee may, in connection with any Stock Award, provide that no payment is required, or require the payment by the Participant of a
specified purchase price. 
  
 10.2 Rights as Shareholder.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10 and the applicable Award Agreement, upon the issuance of the Common Stock under a Stock Award the Participant shall have all rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Common
Stock, including the right to vote the shares and receive all dividends and other distributions paid or made with respect thereto. 
  
 ARTICLE 11 
  
 CHANGE IN CONTROL 
  
 11.1 Change in Control. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights in the event of a Change in Control of the Company: 
  
 (a) The Committee shall have the discretion to provide in each Award Agreement the terms and
conditions that relate to (i) vesting of such Award in the event of a Change in Control, and (ii) assumption of such Awards or issuance of comparable securities under an incentive program in the event of a Change in Control. The
aforementioned terms and conditions may vary in each Award Agreement. 
  
 (b) If the terms of an outstanding Stock Option provide for accelerated vesting in the event of a Change in Control, or to the extent that a Stock Option is vested and not yet exercised, the Committee in its
discretion may provide, in connection with the Change in Control transaction, for the purchase or exchange of each Stock Option for an amount of cash or other property having a value equal to the difference (or “spread”) between:
(x) the value of the cash or other property that the Participant would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Stock Option had the Stock Option been exercised
immediately prior to the Change in Control, and (y) the Exercise Price of the Stock Option. 
  

 11 

 (c) If the terms of an outstanding Stock Appreciation Right provide for
accelerated vesting in the event of a Change in Control, or to the extent that a Stock Appreciation Right is vested and not yet exercised, the Committee in its discretion may provide, in connection with the Change in Control transaction, for the
purchase or exchange of each Stock Appreciation Right for an amount of cash or other property having a value equal to the value of the cash or other property that the Participant would have received pursuant to the Change in Control transaction in
exchange for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right had the Stock Appreciation Right been exercised immediately prior to the Change in Control. 
  
 (d) Outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Right shall terminate and cease to be
exercisable upon consummation of a Change in Control except to the extent that the Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights are assumed by the successor entity (or parent thereof) pursuant to the terms of the Change in Control transaction.

  
 (e) The Committee shall cause written
notice of a proposed Change in Control transaction to be given to Participants not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the anticipated effective date of the proposed transaction. 
  
 11.2 Excise Tax Limit. In the event that the vesting of Awards together with all other payments and the value of any
benefit received or to be received by a Participant would result in all or a portion of such payment being subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, then the Participant’s payment shall be either (i) the full payment
or (ii) such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payment being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable
Federal, state, and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Participant, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the payment may be
taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. All determinations required to be made under this Section 11 shall be made by the accounting firm that is the Company’s then outside auditor (the “Accounting Firm”). The Company shall
cause the Accounting Firm to provide detailed supporting calculations of its determinations to the Company and the Participant. All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. 
  
 ARTICLE 12 
  
 FORFEITURE EVENTS 
  
 12.1 General. The Committee may specify in an Award Agreement at the
time of the Award that the 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 shall include, but shall not be limited to, termination of Service for cause, violation of material Company policies, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality or other
restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company. 
  

12.2 Termination for Cause. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee and set forth in an Award Agreement, if a Participant’s employment
with the Company or any Affiliated Company shall be terminated for “cause,” as defined in any Award Agreement, the Company may, in its sole discretion, immediately terminate such Participant’s right to any further payments, vesting or
exercisability with respect to any Award in its entirety. In the event a Participant is party to an employment (or similar) agreement with the Company or any Affiliated Company that defines the term “cause,” such definition shall apply for
purposes of the Plan. The Company shall have the power to determine whether the Participant has been terminated for cause and the date upon which such termination for cause occurs. Any such determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon
the Participant. In addition, if the Company shall reasonably determine that a Participant has committed or may have committed any act which could constitute the basis for a termination of such Participant’s employment for cause, the Company
may suspend the Participant’s rights to exercise any option, receive any payment or vest in any right with respect to any Award pending a determination by the Company of whether an act has been committed which could constitute the basis for a
termination for “cause” as provided in this Section 12.2.

 ARTICLE 13 
  

PERFORMANCE-BASED COMPENSATION 
  
 13.1 Performance Measures. The Committee may specify that the attainment of the general performance measures set forth in this Article 13 may
determine the degree of granting, vesting and/or payout with respect to Awards (including any related dividends or dividend equivalents) that the Committee intends will qualify for the Performance-Based Exception. The performance goals to be used
for such Awards shall be chosen from among the following performance measure(s): revenues, earnings per share, pro forma earnings per share (excluding one time and nonrecurring items and acquisition related charges and expenses), gross profit
margins, pro forma gross profit margins, inventory turns, pro forma inventory turns, economic value created, market share (actual or targeted growth), net income (which may be pro forma and adjusted for nonrecurring items and before or after taxes),
operating income, adjusted net income after capital charge, return on assets (actual, pro forma or targeted growth), return on capital (actual, pro forma or targeted growth), return on equity (actual, pro forma or targeted growth), return on
investment (actual, pro forma or targeted growth), cash flow, operating margin, share price, share price growth, total stockholder return, and strategic business criteria, consisting of one or more objectives based on meeting specified market
penetration goals, revenue targets, gross margin targets, pro forma gross margin targets, net income or pro forma net income targets, earnings per share or pro forma earnings per share targets, productivity measures, geographic business expansion
goals, cost targets, customer satisfaction or employee satisfaction goals, goals relating to merger synergies, management of employment practices and employee benefits, or supervision of litigation and information technology, and goals relating to
acquisitions or divestitures of subsidiaries, Affiliated Companies or joint ventures. The targeted level or levels of performance with respect to such performance measures may be established at such levels and on such terms as the Committee may
determine, in its discretion, including in absolute terms, as a goal relative to performance in prior periods, or as a goal compared to the performance of one or more comparable companies or an index covering multiple companies. Awards (including
any related dividends or dividend equivalents) that are not intended to qualify for the Performance-Based Exception may be based on these or such other performance measures as the Committee may determine. 
  
 ARTICLE 14 
  
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
  
 14.1 Award Agreement. To the extent deemed necessary by the Committee,
an Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement in a written or electronic form approved by the Committee setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock or units subject to the Award, the exercise price, base price, or purchase
price of the Award, the time or times at which an Award will become vested, exercisable or payable and the term of the Award. The Award Agreement may also set forth the effect on an Award of termination of Service under certain circumstances. The
Award Agreement shall be subject to and incorporate, by reference or otherwise, all of the applicable terms and conditions of the Plan, and may also set forth other terms and conditions applicable to the Award as determined by the Committee
consistent with the limitations of the Plan. The grant of an Award under the Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such conditions, as are specified in the Plan as being
applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly set forth in the Award Agreement. The Committee need not require the execution of an Award Agreement by a Participant, in which case, acceptance of the Award by the Participant
shall constitute agreement by the Participant to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations set forth in the Plan and the Award Agreement as well as the administrative guidelines of the Company in effect from time to time. 
  
 14.2 No Assignment or Transfer; Beneficiaries. Except as provided in
Section 6.6 hereof, Awards under the Plan shall not be assignable or transferable by the Participant, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject in any manner to assignment, alienation, pledge,
encumbrance or charge. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide in the terms of an Award Agreement that the Participant shall have the right to designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries who shall be entitled to any rights, payments or
other benefits specified under an Award following the Participant’s death. During the lifetime of a Participant, an Award shall be exercised only by such Participant or such Participant’s guardian or legal representative, except as
provided 

  

 13 

 
herein or in any Award Agreement. In the event of a Participant’s death, an Award may, to the extent permitted by the Award Agreement, be exercised by
the Participant’s beneficiary as designated by the Participant in the manner prescribed by the Committee or, in the absence of an authorized beneficiary designation, by the legatee of such Award under the Participant’s will or by the
Participant’s estate in accordance with the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution, in each case in the same manner and to the same extent that such Award was exercisable by the Participant on the date of the
Participant’s death. 
  
 14.3 Rights as Shareholder. A
Participant shall have no rights as a holder of shares of Common Stock with respect to any unissued securities covered by an Award until the date the Participant becomes the holder of record of such securities. Except as provided in Section 4.3
hereof, no adjustment or other provision shall be made for dividends or other shareholder rights, except to the extent that the Award Agreement provides for dividend payments or dividend equivalent rights. 
  
 14.4 Employment or Service. Nothing in the Plan, in the grant of any
Award or in any Award Agreement shall confer upon any Eligible Person any right to continue in the Service of the Company or any Affiliated Company, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Affiliated Company to terminate the
Participant’s employment or other service relationship for any reason at any time. 
  
 14.5 Tax Withholding. The Participant shall be responsible for payment of any taxes or similar charges required by law to be withheld from an Award or an amount paid in satisfaction of an Award, which shall be
paid by the Participant on or prior to the payment or other event that results in taxable income in respect of an Award. The Award Agreement may specify the manner in which the withholding obligation shall be satisfied with respect to the particular
type of Award. 
  
 14.6 Unfunded Plan. The adoption of the
Plan and any reservation of shares of Common Stock or cash amounts by the Company to discharge its obligations hereunder shall not be deemed to create a trust or other funded arrangement. Except upon the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to an
Award, any rights of a Participant under the Plan shall be those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company, and neither a Participant nor the Participant’s permitted transferees or estate shall have any other interest in any assets of the
Company by virtue of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right to implement or set aside funds in a grantor trust, subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors or otherwise, to discharge its obligations under
the Plan. 
  
 14.7 Severability. If any provision of the
Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions
shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 14.8
Foreign Jurisdictions. The Committee may adopt, amend and terminate such arrangements and grant such Awards, not inconsistent with the intent of the Plan, as it may deem necessary or desirable to comply with any tax, securities, regulatory or
other laws of other jurisdictions with respect to Awards that may be subject to such laws. The terms and conditions of such Awards may vary from the terms and conditions that would otherwise be required by the Plan solely to the extent the Committee
deems necessary for such purpose. Moreover, the Board may approve such supplements to or amendments, restatements or alternative versions of the Plan, not inconsistent with the intent of the Plan, as it may consider necessary or appropriate for such
purposes, without thereby affecting the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose. 
  
 14.9 Substitute Awards in Corporate Transactions. Nothing contained in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Committee to grant Awards under the Plan in connection with the acquisition, whether
by purchase, merger, consolidation or other corporate transaction, of the business or assets of any corporation or other entity. Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may grant Awards under the Plan to an employee or director of another
corporation who becomes an Eligible Person by reason of any such corporate transaction in substitution for awards previously granted by such corporation or entity to such person. The terms and conditions of the substitute Awards may vary from the
terms and conditions that would otherwise be required by the Plan solely to the extent the Committee deems necessary for such purpose.
