 Section 3.2. New Hires; Transfers In, Out and
Between Eligible Positions. 
 (a) Notwithstanding Section 3.1, for a key employee who is appointed or promoted into a
position that is eligible for a Performance Award, the Administrator may (1) select such key employee as a Participant at any time during the course of a Performance Period, (2) take action as a result of which there is an additional

Performance Award, or revise the Performance Goals, Performance Measures or Performance Scale, as determined by the Administrator to reflect the demotion.

 Section 3.3. Termination of Employment. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided under the terms of an employment or severance agreement between a Participant and the Company, or under
the Company’s Change of Control and Severance Pay Plan or the Company’s Executive Severance Pay Plan, no Participant shall earn an incentive award for a Performance Period unless the Participant is employed by the Company or an Affiliate
(or is on an approved leave of absence) on the last day of such Performance Period, unless employment was terminated during the period as a result of Retirement, Disability or death at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for
Cause, or unless payment is approved by the Administrator after considering the cause of termination. 
 (b)
If a Participant’s employment is terminated as a result of death, Disability or Retirement, at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause, then unless the Administrator decides to provide a greater amount, the
Participant (or the Participant’s estate in the event of his death) shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount calculated under Section 5.1, but only with respect to awards which are in the final

The amount payable to a Participant may be designated as a flat dollar amount or as a percentage of the Participant’s Base Salary, or may be determined by any other means as the Administrator may specify at the time the Performance Award is
granted. The amount payable to any Participant to whom a Performance Award is granted under Section 11 of the Omnibus Incentive Plan shall be subject to the dollar limit imposed under such plan.

 ARTICLE 5. 

PAYMENT 

Section 5.1. Evaluating Performance and Computing Awards. 
 (a) As soon as practicable following the close of a Performance Period, the Administrator shall determine whether and to what extent the Performance Goals and other material terms of the Performance Award
issued for such period were satisfied, and shall determine whether any discretionary adjustments under Subsection (b) shall be made. Based on such certification, the Administrator (or its delegee) shall determine the award amount payable to a
Participant under the Performance Award for that Performance Period. 
 (b) The Administrator may adjust each Participant’s
potential award amount under any Performance Award, based upon overall individual performance and attainment of goals up to a maximum of plus fifty percent (+50%) or down to a maximum of minus twenty percent (-20%); provided that with
respect to any Participant who is a Covered Employee, the Administrator shall only be allowed to approve a downward adjustment. 
 Section
5.2. Timing and Form of Payment. When the payment due to the Participant has been determined, payment shall be made in a cash lump sum in the calendar year immediately following the close of the Performance Period, typically as soon as
practicable after the Administrator has certified the extent to which the Performance Goals have been achieved. 
 Section 5.3.
Inimical Conduct. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the end of the Performance Period for which the payment has accrued, but before payment is made, if the Participant engages in Inimical Conduct, or if the Company determines after a
Participant’s termination of employment that the Participant could have been terminated for Cause, then the Performance Award shall be automatically cancelled and no payment or deferral shall be made. The Administrator may suspend payment
(without liability for interest thereon) pending the Administrator’s determination of whether the Participant was or should have been terminated for Cause or whether the Participant has engaged in Inimical Conduct. 

ARTICLE 6. 
 ADJUSTMENTS 
 In the event of any change in the outstanding shares
of Company Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, then if the Administrator shall determine that such change
necessarily or equitably requires an adjustment in the Performance Goals established under a Performance Award, such adjustments shall be made by the Administrator and shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of this Plan. No adjustment
shall be made in connection with the issuance by the Company of any warrants, rights, or options to acquire additional shares of Common Stock or of securities convertible into Common Stock; and no such adjustment shall be permitted with respect to
any Participant who is a Covered Employee to the extent such adjustment would cause the Participant’s Performance Award to cease to be qualified performance-based compensation within the meaning of Code Section 162(m).

 ARTICLE 7. 

RIGHTS OF PARTICIPANTS 
 Section 7.1. No Funding. No Participant shall have any interest in any fund or in any specific asset or assets of the Company or any Affiliate by reason of any Performance Award under the

Section 7.2. No Transfer. No Participant may assign, pledge, or encumber his or her interest under the Plan, or any part thereof.
