Re:

Financial
statements for the years ending June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2018

 

Gentlemen:

We
have been requested by a letter dated December 10, 2018 from Genesys Industries, Inc. (the "Company"), to provide you
with certain information relating to the Company in connection with your examination of their accounts as of June 30, 2017, June
30, 2018 and as of the date of this letter.

While
this firm represents the Company on a regular basis, our engagement has been confined to matters specifically referred to us by
the Company.

In
preparing this response, our procedures have been limited to making inquiries addressed to the present recollection of lawyers
currently with this firm who, according to our records, have performed legal services for the Company. These lawyers include those
members of the firm who would normally have responsibility for any pertinent matter with respect to which we have been employed
by the Company. We assume no responsibility for, and do not represent that we have made, a review of our files or inquiry of any
persons other than such lawyers or any investigation other than such inquiries of such lawyers.

Pending
or Threatened Litigation

We
are not aware of any information concerning any pending or threatened litigation, claims or assessments involving the Company.

Unasserted
Claims and Assessments

We concur with the representations contained in the
audit inquiry letter, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein.

    	 	1	 

     

    

Other
Matters

The
information set forth herein is as of the date of this letter except as otherwise noted, and we assume no obligation to advise
you of changes which may be brought to our attention hereafter.

This
response is limited by, and in accordance with, the ABA Statement of Policy regarding Lawyers' Responses to Auditors' Requests
for Information (December 1975); without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the limitations set forth in such Statement
on the scope and use of this response (Paragraphs 2 and 7) are specifically incorporated herein by reference, and any description
herein and any "loss contingencies" is qualified in its entirety by Paragraph 5 of the Statement and the accompanying
Commentary (which is an integral part of the Statement). Pursuant to the Company's request, this will confirm as correct the Company's
understanding as set forth in its audit inquiry to us that whenever, in the course of performing legal services for the Company with
respect to a matter recognized to involve an unasserted possible claim or assessment which may call for financial statement disclosure,
we have formed a professional conclusion that the Company must disclose or consider disclosure concerning such possible claim
or assessment, we, as a matter of professional responsibility to the Company, will so advise the Company and will consult with
the Company concerning the questions of such disclosure and the applicable requirements of ASC 450, Accounting for Contingencies.

 

Further,
as of December 27, 2018, the Company is not indebted to this firm for its services.

Stock Units pursuant to Section 4.05(a), including any vesting or forfeiture provisions included in an employment agreement between the Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the LTIP, the applicable Award
Agreement or any other written agreement between such Participant and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Applicable Agreements”). The portions of such Applicable Agreements that relate to the vesting and forfeiture
of Restricted Stock Units subject to a Deferral Election hereunder are incorporated herein by reference. 

  

	 	(c)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in an Applicable Agreement, Restricted Stock Units subject to a
Deferral Election hereunder, including any Dividend Equivalents attributable to such Restricted Stock Units, shall be subject to the payment provisions set forth in the Plan, including all provisions of the Plan relating to timing, form and medium
of payment. 

  

	4.06	 Re-Deferrals and Changing the Form of Payment. The Participant
may make an election to re-defer all or a portion of the amounts in his or her Account(s) until a later Distribution Date or to change the form of a payment (a
“Re-Deferral Election”); provided that the following requirements are met: 

  

	 	(a)	 The Re-Deferral Election is made at least 12 months before the original
Distribution Date; 

  

	 	(b)	 The Distribution Date for the re-deferred amounts is at least five
years later than the original Distribution Date; and 

  

	 	(c)	 The Re-Deferral Election will not take effect for at least 12 months
after the Re-Deferral Election is made. 

  

	 	(d)	 For purposes of this Section 4.06, all payments, including installment payments,
shall be treated as separate payments under Section 409A of the Code.

 ARTICLE V 

COMPANY CONTRIBUTIONS 
  

	5.01	 Matching Contributions. Each Plan Year the Company may, but need not, make a Matching Contribution to
the Plan on behalf of any Participant. The Matching Contribution may be expressed as a percentage of the Participant’s Director Fee deferral, Base Salary deferral or Bonus Compensation deferral, as determined by the Company in its sole
discretion. Any Matching Contribution shall be credited to the Participant’s Matching Contribution Account as soon as practicable following the last day of the Plan Year to which the Matching Contribution relates and in no event later than
March 15 of the Plan Year immediately following the Plan Year to which such Matching Contribution relates. The Company is under no obligation to make a Matching Contribution for any Plan Year. Matching Contributions need not be uniform among
Participants. 

  

	5.02	 Discretionary Contributions. Each Plan Year the Company may, but need not, make a Discretionary
Contribution to the Plan on behalf of a Participant in such amount as the Company shall determine in its sole discretion. Any Discretionary Contribution shall be credited to the Participant’s Discretionary Contribution Account as soon as
practicable following the last day of the Plan Year to which the Discretionary Contribution relates and no later than March 15 of the Plan Year immediately following the Plan Year to which such Matching Contribution relates. The Company is
under no obligation to make a Discretionary Contribution for any Plan Year. Discretionary Contributions need not be uniform among Participants. 

ARTICLE VI 

ACCOUNTS AND INVESTMENT OPTIONS 
  

	6.01	 Establishment of Accounts. The Company shall establish and maintain an Account for each Participant. The
Company may establish more than one Account on behalf of any Participant as deemed necessary by the Committee for administrative purposes. 

  

	6.02	 Cash Accounts. 

 

	 	(a)	 Investment Options. The Committee shall select the Investment Options to be made available to
Participants for the deemed investment of their Cash Accounts under the Plan. The Committee may change, discontinue, or add to the Investment Options made available under the Plan at any time in its sole discretion. A Participant must select the
Investment Options for his or her Cash Account in the Participant’s Election Form and may make changes to his or her selections in accordance with procedures established by the Committee. 

 

	 	(b)	 Investment Earnings. Each Cash Account shall be adjusted for earnings or losses based on the performance
of the Investment Options selected. Earnings and losses shall be computed on each Valuation Date. The amount paid to a Participant on the payment date shall be determined as of the applicable Determination Date. 

 

	6.03	 Equity Accounts, Dividend Equivalents and Other Distributions. 

  
 9 

	 	(a)	 Restricted Stock Units. On the date that a Restricted Stock Unit award subject to a Deferral Election
hereunder vests in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Applicable Agreements, a number of notional Shares equal to the number of Shares that would otherwise have been issuable in settlement of such Restricted Stock Unit award shall be
credited to a Participant’s Equity Account and shall become Elective Equity Deferrals. All Elective Equity Deferrals shall be notionally invested in Shares from the vesting date applicable to the Restricted Stock Units subject to a Deferral
Election through the applicable Distribution Date. 

  

	 	(b)	 Dividend Equivalents Accrued Prior to Deferral Date. If a Participant has elected to defer Restricted
Stock Units pursuant to Article IV and any Dividend Equivalents representing the right to receive cash dividends or other cash distributions made to shareholders of the Company accrue with respect to such Restricted Stock Units prior to
the vesting date applicable to such Restricted Stock Units, then such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral Account as of the date the such Dividend Equivalents vest in accordance with the terms of
the applicable Award Agreement. Any amounts credited to a Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral Account pursuant to the preceding sentence shall initially be deemed invested in accordance with the Participant’s election in effect at the
time such amount is credited, and thereafter shall be subject to change in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.02. If a Participant has elected to defer Restricted Stock Units pursuant to
Article IV and any Dividend Equivalents representing the right to receive Shares in connection with a Share dividend or other Share distributions made to shareholders of the Company accrue with respect to such Restricted
Stock Units prior to the vesting date applicable to such Restricted Stock Units, then such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited to the Participant’s Equity Account as of the date the such Dividend Equivalents vest in accordance with the terms
of the applicable Award Agreement. 

  

	 	(c)	 Dividends Accrued After Deferral Date. If any cash dividends or cash distributions are declared with
respect to an outstanding Share, then each notional Share credited to a Participant’s Equity Account shall be deemed to have received a cash dividend or cash distribution in the same amount, and such amount shall be credited to the
Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral Account as of the date the corresponding cash dividends or other cash distributions are paid to the holders of Shares. Any amounts credited to a Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral Account pursuant to
the preceding sentence shall initially be deemed invested in accordance with the Participant’s election in effect at the time such amount is credited, and thereafter shall be subject to change in accordance with the provisions of
Section 6.02. If a Share dividend or Share distribution is declared with respect to an outstanding Share, then each notional Share credited to a Participant’s Equity Account shall be deemed to have received a number of
notional Shares equal to the number of Shares delivered to the holder of one outstanding Share as a result of such Share dividend or Share distribution, and such notional Shares shall be credited to the Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral

  
 10 

	 	
Account as of the date that the corresponding Share dividends or other Share distributions are delivered to the shareholders of the Company. 

 

	 	(d)	 Notional Shares Subject to Adjustment. Notional Shares credited to a Participant’s Equity Account
shall be subject to adjustment by the Committee in the same manner and under the same circumstances as would apply to outstanding Restricted Stock Units under the LTIP; provided, however, that to the extent any such adjustment relates to a
present or future cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Restricted Stock Unit under the LTIP, such cash amount shall be credited to the Participant’s Elective Cash Deferral Account as of the date determined by the Committee.

  

	6.04	 Nature of Accounts. Accounts are not actually invested in the Investment Options available under the
Plan or in the Shares, as applicable, and Participants do not have any real or beneficial ownership in any Investment Option or Shares. A Participant’s Account is solely a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid
to the Participant pursuant to the Plan and shall not constitute or be treated as a trust fund of any kind. 

  

	6.05	 Statements. Each Participant shall be provided with statements setting out the amounts in his or her
Account(s) which shall be delivered at such intervals determined by the Committee. 

 ARTICLE VII 

VESTING 
  

	7.01	 Vesting of Elective Cash Deferrals and Elective Equity Deferrals. Participants shall be fully vested at
all times in their Elective Cash Deferrals and Elective Equity Deferrals and any earnings thereon. 

  

	7.02	 Vesting of Matching Contributions and Discretionary Contributions. Participants shall be fully vested at
all times in their Matching Contributions and Discretionary Contributions and any earnings thereon; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its discretion, establish a different vesting schedule that will apply to Matching Contributions and
Discretionary Contributions made to the Plan on behalf of any Participant for any Plan Year. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, a Participant’s unvested Cash Account balance, if any,
will be forfeited on the occurrence of a Payment Event and shall not be eligible for distribution under Article IX, X, or XI. 

ARTICLE VIII 

PAYMENT OF PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS 
  

	8.01	 In General. Except as otherwise provided in Article, IX, X or XI, payment of a
Participant’s Account(s) shall be made (or commence, in the case of installments) on the earliest to occur of the following events (each a “Payment Event”): 

  
 11 

	 	(a)	 The Distribution Date specified in the Participant’s Deferral Election; provided that the Participant must
select from among the available Distribution Date(s) designated by the Committee and set forth in the Election Form; 

  

	 	(b)	 The Participant’s Separation from Service; 

 

	 	(c)	 The Participant’s death; 

 

	 	(d)	 The Participant’s Disability; and 

 

	 	(e)	 The occurrence of a Change in Control. 

 

	8.02	 Timing of Valuation. The value of a Participant’s Cash Account and the number of Shares deliverable
pursuant to a Participant’s Equity Account on the payment date shall be determined as of the applicable Determination Date. 

  

	8.03	 Timing of Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Article VIII, payments shall be made or
commence on the first Scheduled Payment Date following a Payment Event. 

  

	8.04	 Timing of Payments to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if any
payment that is provided to a Participant in connection with the Participant’s Separation From Service constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the Participant is a
Specified Employee as of the date of his or her Separation from Service, then no distribution of such Participant’s Account shall be made upon the Participant’s Separation from Service until the first payroll date to occur following the six-month anniversary of the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service (or, if earlier, upon the date of the Participant’s death) (the “Specified Employee Payment Date”).
Any payments to which a Specified Employee otherwise would have been entitled under the Plan during the period between the Participant’s Separation from Service and the Specified Employee Payment date shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum
payment on the Specified Employee Payment Date. 

  

	8.05	 Form of Payment. Each Participant shall specify in his or her Election Form the form of payment (lump
sum or installments) for amounts in his or her Account that are covered by the election; provided that, if the Participant elects to have amounts paid in installments, the Participant must select from among the permissible installment schedules
selected by the Committee and set forth in the Election Form. In the absence of a valid election with respect to form of payment, amounts will be paid in a single lump sum. For the avoidance of doubt, the Committee may limit the form or forms of
payment available under the Plan without amending the Plan; provided, however, that such limitation may not alter any valid Deferral Election made prior to such limitation. 

 

	8.06	 Medium of Payment. Benefit payments that are attributable to Cash Accounts shall be paid in the form of
cash. Benefit payments that are attributable to the Equity Account shall be paid in the form of Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 6.03(d)), and the number of Shares distributable to the Participant shall
equal the number of notional Shares credited to such account on the Distribution Date (subject to adjustment 

  
 12 

	 	
as provided in Section 6.03(d)). Any Shares delivered upon settlement of an Equity Account shall be issued pursuant to the LTIP and subject to all of its terms and
conditions. 

 ARTICLE IX 

PAYMENTS DUE TO UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY 
  

	9.01	 Request for Payment. If a Participant suffers an Unforeseeable Emergency, he or she may submit a written
request to the Committee for payment of his or her Account. 

  

	9.02	 No Payment if Other Relief Available. The Committee will evaluate the Participant’s request for
payment due to an Unforeseeable Emergency taking into account the Participant’s circumstances and the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. In no event will payments be made pursuant to this Article IX to the extent that the
Participant’s hardship can be relieved: (a) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise; (b) by liquidation of the Participant’s assets, to the extent that liquidation of the Participant’s assets would
not itself cause severe financial hardship; or (c) by the cessation of deferrals under the Plan. 

  

	9.03	 Limitation on Payment Amount. The amount of any payment made on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency
shall not exceed the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the Participant’s financial need, including amounts necessary to pay any Federal, state or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the payment, as
determined by the Committee. 

  

	9.04	 Timing of Payment. Payments shall be made from a Participant’s Account as soon as practicable and
in any event within 30 days following the Committee’s determination that an Unforeseeable Emergency has occurred and authorization of payment from the Participant’s Account. 

 

	9.05	 Cessation of Deferrals. If a Participant receives payment on account of an Unforeseeable Emergency, the
Participant may make no more Elective Cash Deferrals for the remainder of the Plan Year. 

 ARTICLE X 

ACCELERATION EVENTS 
  

	10.01	 Permissible Acceleration Events. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee, in
its sole discretion, may accelerate payment of all or a portion of a Participant’s Account upon the occurrence of any of the events set forth in this Article X. The Committee’s determination of whether payment may be accelerated
pursuant to this Article X shall be made in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4).

in the Plan and any plans that are aggregated with the Plan pursuant to Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(c)(2), and (iii) the Committee’s decision to cash out the Participant’s Account is
evidenced in writing no later than the date of payment.

imposed under Section 3401 of the Code or the corresponding withholding provisions of applicable state, local or foreign tax laws as a result of the payment of the FICA Amount and the additional income tax at source on wages attributable to the
pyramiding Section 3401 wages and taxes; provided, however, that the total payment under this Section 10.01(c) shall not exceed the FICA Amount and the income tax withholding related to the FICA Amount.

  

	 	(d)	 Payment upon Income Inclusion. The Committee may accelerate payment of all or a portion of a
Participant’s Account to the extent that the Plan fails to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; provided that, the amount accelerated shall not exceed the amount required to be included in income as a result of the failure to
comply with Section 409A of the Code. 

  

	 	(e)	 Termination of the Plan. The Committee may accelerate payment of all or a portion of a

	 	(i)	 the payment of state, local or foreign tax obligations arising from participation in the Plan that relate to an
amount deferred under the Plan before the amount is paid or made available to the Participant (the “State, Local and Foreign Tax Amount”); provided, however, the accelerated payment amount shall not exceed the taxes
due as a result of participation in the Plan, and/or 

  

	 	(ii)	 the payment of income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code as a result of such
payment and the payment of the additional income tax at source on wages imposed under Section 3401 of the Code attributable to the additional Section 3401 wages and taxes; provided however, the accelerated payment amount shall not
exceed the aggregate of the State, Local and Foreign Tax Amount and the income tax withholding related to such amount. 

  
 14 

	 	(g)	 Certain Offsets. The Committee may accelerate payment of all or a portion of the Participant’s
Account to satisfy a debt of the Participant to the Company or a Subsidiary incurred in the ordinary course of the service relationship between the Company and the Participant; provided, however, the amount accelerated shall not exceed $5,000
and the payment shall be made at the same time and in the same amount as the debt otherwise would have been due and collected from the Participant. 

  

	 	(h)	 Bona Fide Disputes as to Right to Payment. The Committee may accelerate payment of all or a portion of a
Participant’s Account where the payment is part of a settlement between the Company or a Subsidiary and the Participant of an arm’s length, bona fide dispute as to the Participant’s right to the deferred amount. 

 

	 	(i)	 Ethics or Conflicts of Interest. The Committee may accelerate payment of all or a portion of a

the payment of all or a portion of a Participant’s Account in connection with the death, Disability or Unforeseeable Emergency of a Beneficiary who has become entitled to payment of a Participant’s Account under the Plan pursuant to
Section 15.07 hereof. Payments made pursuant to this Article XI shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as payments made to Participants pursuant to Article VIII

	12.02	 Non-Uniform Treatment. The Committee’s determinations under
the Plan need not be uniform and any such determinations may be made selectively among Participants. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee shall be entitled, among other things, to make
non-uniform and selective determinations with regard to: (a) the terms or conditions of any Elective Cash Deferral or Equity Deferral; (b) the amount, terms or conditions of any Matching Contribution

 16 

	12.04	 Indemnification. No member of the Board, the Committee or any designee shall be liable for any action,
failure to act, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan except for any liability arising from his or her own willful malfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties.

contractual obligation beyond the promise to pay the benefits described in the Plan. 

  

	13.02	 Amendment of the Plan. The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion and without the consent of
any Participant, amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify the Plan in any respect at any time; provided, however, that without the consent of the applicable Participant(s), no such amendment, restatement, supplement or other
modification shall adversely impact such Participant’s rights with respect to amounts credited to or accrued in such Participant’s Account up to the date of such amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification except to the extent
required by applicable law. 

  

	13.03	 Termination of Eligibility or the Plan. The Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion and

the need for an amendment to the Plan and (ii) suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part at any time; provided, however, that, without the consent of the applicable Participant(s), no such limitation, suspension or termination
will deprive a Participant or Claimant of any amount credited to the applicable Participant’s Account(s) under the Plan up to the date of such limitation, suspension or termination, except as required by applicable law.

 ARTICLE XIV 

CLAIMS FOR BENEFITS 
  

	14.01	 Filing a Claim. Any Participant or other person claiming an interest in the Plan (the
“Claimant”) may file a claim in writing with the Committee. The Committee shall review the claim itself or appoint an individual or entity to review the claim. 

 

	14.02	 Claim Decision. The Claimant shall be notified within 90 days after the claim is filed whether the claim

special circumstances and provide an expected date of decision. The reviewer shall afford the Claimant an opportunity to review and receive, without charge, all relevant documents, information and records and to submit issues and comments in writing

purposes. 

 ARTICLE XV 

MISCELLANEOUS 
  

	15.01	 Limitation on Rights Conferred under the Plan. None of the Plan, any instrument executed pursuant
thereto or any action taken hereunder shall be construed as (a) giving any Eligible Person or Participant the right to continue as an Eligible Person or Participant or in the employ or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries,
(b) interfering in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate any Eligible Person’s or Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, or (c) giving an Eligible Person or
Participant any claim to be treated uniformly with other Eligible Persons or Participants. 

  

	15.02	 Tax Withholding. The Company and its Subsidiaries shall have the right to deduct from any amounts
otherwise payable or deliverable under the Plan any federal, state, local, or other applicable taxes required to be withheld. Section 10(b) of the LTIP shall apply with respect to the delivery of Shares attributable to a Participant’s
Equity Account. 

  

	15.03	 Governing Law. The Plan shall be administered, construed and governed in all respects by application of
the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions thereof, except to the extent Delaware law is preempted by federal law. 

 

	15.04	 Section 409A of the Code. The Company intends that the Plan comply with the
requirements of Section 409A of the Code and shall be operated and interpreted consistent with that intent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representation that the Plan complies with Section 409A of the Code and shall
have no liability to any Participant for any failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Further, the Plan shall constitute an “account balance plan” as defined in Treas. Reg.
Section 31.3121(v)(2)-1(c)(1)(ii)(A). For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, all amounts deferred under the Plan shall be aggregated with amounts deferred under other account balance plans.

  

	15.05	 General Assets/Trust. All amounts provided under the Plan shall be paid from the general assets of the
Company and no separate fund shall be established to secure payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, but need not, establish a rabbi trust to assist it in funding any Plan obligations. 

 

	15.06	 No Warranties. Neither the Company nor the Committee warrants or represents that the value of any
Participant’s Account(s) will increase. Each Participant assumes the risk in connection with the deemed investment of his or her Account(s). 

  
 19 

	15.07	 Beneficiary Designation. Each Participant under the Plan may from time to time name any Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries to receive the Participant’s interest in the Plan in the event of the Participant’s death. Each designation will revoke all prior designations by the same Participant, shall be in a form reasonably prescribed by the Committee
and shall be effective only when filed by the Participant in writing with the Company during the Participant’s lifetime. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, then the Participant’s designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be
the Participant’s estate. 

  

	15.08	 No Assignment. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to sell, assign,
transfer, pledge, anticipate or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or convey any amounts payable hereunder prior to the date that such amounts are paid (except for the designation of beneficiaries pursuant to
Section 15.07). 

  

	15.09	 Expenses. The costs of administering the Plan shall be paid by the Company. 

 

	15.10	 Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, whether in
whole or in part, such provision shall be deemed modified to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the remaining provisions shall not be affected. 

 

	15.11	 ERISA Status. It is intended that the Plan will not constitute a “qualified plan” subject to
the limitations of Section 401(a) of the Code, nor will it constitute a “funded plan,” for purposes of such requirements. It is also intended that the Plan will be exempt from the participation and vesting requirements of Part 2 of
Title I of ERISA, the funding requirements of Part 3 of Title I of ERISA, and the fiduciary requirements of Part 4 of Title I of ERISA by reason of the exclusions afforded plans that are unfunded and maintained by an employer primarily for the
purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees. 

  

	15.12	 Construction. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in the Plan includes the
masculine, feminine and neuter. The singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular whenever appropriate. Except as explicitly provided otherwise, all references to Articles and Sections refer to articles and sections of
the Plan, all references to Exhibits are to Exhibits attached to the Plan, each of which is made a part of the Plan for all purposes and all references to “including” shall be construed as meaning “including without limitation.”
All references to dollars refer to United States dollars. The words “hereof,” “hereto,” “hereby,” “herein,” “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in the Plan, shall refer to the Plan as
a whole and not to any particular section or article in which such words appear. The word “or” shall not be exclusive. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to laws, regulations, contracts, agreements and instruments refer
to such laws, regulations, contracts, agreements and instruments as they may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, and references to particular provisions of laws or regulations include a reference to the
corresponding provisions of any succeeding law or regulation. The Table of Contents and the Article, Section and Exhibit titles and headings in the Plan are inserted for convenience only and are not intended to be part of, or to affect the meaning
or interpretation of, the Plan.
