			Exhibit 4.3
		

		
			DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
		

		
			The following is a summary description of the capital stock of CoreSite Realty Corporation.   This description of the terms of our capital stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable provisions of Maryland General Corporation Law, or the MGCL, and our charter and bylaws.  For purposes of this exhibit, references to “we,” “our,” “us” and “our company” refer to CoreSite Realty Corporation.
		

		
			Common Stock
		

		
			General.  Our charter provides that we may issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, or common stock.  Our charter authorizes our board of directors, with the approval of a majority of the entire board and without any action by our stockholders, to amend our charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of authorized shares of stock of any class or series.  As of December 31, 2019, there were 37,701,042 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.
		

		
			Under Maryland law, stockholders generally are not personally liable for our debts or obligations solely as a result of their status as stockholders.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Subject to the preferential rights of any other class or series of stock and to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock, holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends on such stock if, as and when authorized by our board of directors out of assets legally available therefor and declared by us and to share ratably in the assets of our company legally available for distribution to our stockholders in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up after payment of or adequate provision for all known debts and liabilities of our company.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock, each outstanding share of our common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors and, except as provided with respect to any other class or series of stock, the holders of such shares will possess the exclusive voting power.  There is no cumulative voting in the election of our board of directors, which means that the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock can elect all of the directors then standing for election and the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any directors.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Holders of shares of our common stock have no preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund or redemption rights, and have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities.  Our charter provides that stockholders generally have no appraisal rights unless our board of directors determines prospectively that appraisal rights will apply to one or more transactions in which holders of our common stock would otherwise be entitled to exercise appraisal rights.  Subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of stock, shares of our common stock will have equal dividend, liquidation and other rights.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Under the MGCL, a Maryland corporation generally cannot dissolve, amend its charter, merge, convert, sell all or substantially all of its assets, engage in a statutory share exchange or engage in similar transactions outside the ordinary course of business unless such action is advised by its board of directors and approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders holding at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be 

		 

cast on the matter unless a lesser percentage (but not less than a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter) is set forth in the corporation’s charter.  Under the MGCL, the term “substantially all of the company’s assets” is not defined and is, therefore, subject to Maryland common law and to judicial interpretation and review in the context of the unique facts and circumstances of any particular transaction.  Our charter provides that the foregoing items may be approved by a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter.  However, Maryland law permits a corporation to transfer all or substantially all of its assets without the approval of the stockholders of the corporation to one or more persons, including a subsidiary, if all of the equity interests of the person or persons are owned, directly or indirectly, by the corporation.  In addition, operating assets may be held by a corporation’s subsidiaries, as in our situation, and these subsidiaries may be able to transfer all or substantially all of such assets without a vote of the parent corporation’s stockholders.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our charter authorizes our board of directors, without stockholder approval, to reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock into other classes or series of stock, to establish the designation and number of shares of each such class or series and to set, subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock, the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or conditions of redemption of each such class or series.
		

		
			Power to Increase or Decrease Authorized Shares of Common Stock and Issue Additional Shares of Common Stock.  We believe that the power of our board of directors to amend our charter to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of stock of any class or series, to cause us to issue additional authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and to classify or reclassify unissued shares of our common stock into other classes or series of stock and thereafter to cause us to issue such classified or reclassified shares of stock will provide us with increased flexibility in structuring possible future financings and acquisitions and in meeting other needs which might arise.  The additional classes or series, as well as the common stock, will be available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless stockholder consent is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded.  Although our board of directors does not currently intend to do so, it could authorize us to issue a class or series that could, depending upon the terms of the particular class or series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for our stockholders or otherwise be in their best interests.
		

		
			Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer.  To assist us in complying with certain federal income tax requirements applicable to real estate investment trusts, or REITs, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, among other purposes, our charter contains certain restrictions relating to the ownership and transfer of our common stock.  See “Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			Transfer Agent and Registrar.  The transfer agent and registrar for our shares of common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.
		

		
			Preferred Stock
		

		
			General.  Our charter provides that we may issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, or preferred stock.  Our charter authorizes our board of directors, with the approval of a majority of the entire board of directors and without any action of our stockholders, to amend our charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of authorized shares of any class or series.  Under Maryland law, stockholders are generally not personally liable for our debts 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			2

		

or obligations solely as a result of their status as stockholders.  As of December 31, 2019 and the date hereof, we have no outstanding shares of preferred stock.
		

		
			Our charter authorizes our board of directors to classify and reclassify from time to time any unissued shares of preferred stock into other classes or series of stock.  Prior to issuance of shares of each class or series, our board of directors is required by the MGCL and our charter to establish the number of shares in each class or series and to set, subject to the provisions of our charter regarding the restrictions on transfer of stock, the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption for each such class or series.  The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power, dividend rights and other rights of holders of our common stock.  Our board of directors could establish a series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of the series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change in control of us that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of the holders thereof.  The specific terms of a particular class or series of preferred stock will be described in a prospectus, prospectus supplement or other offering material relating to that class or series.  
		

		
			Power to Increase Authorized Stock and Issue Additional Shares of Our Preferred Stock.  We believe that the power of our board of directors to amend our charter to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of stock, to cause us to issue additional authorized but unissued shares of our preferred stock and to classify or reclassify unissued shares of our preferred stock and thereafter to cause us to issue such classified or reclassified shares of stock will provide us with increased flexibility in structuring possible future financing and acquisitions and in meeting other needs that might arise.  The additional classes or series will be available for issuance without further action by our stockholders, unless stockholder consent is required by applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which our securities may be listed or traded.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Although our board of directors does not currently intend to do so, it could authorize us to issue a class or series that could, depending upon the terms of the particular class or series, delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control of our company that might involve a premium price for our stockholders or otherwise be in their best interests.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer.  To assist us in complying with certain federal income tax requirements applicable to REITs, among other purposes, we have adopted certain restrictions relating to the ownership and transfer of our stock.  See “Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer.”
		

		
			Restrictions on Ownership and Transfer 
		

		
			In order to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, our stock must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months (other than the first year for which an election to be a REIT has been made) or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year.  Also, not more than 50% in value of our shares of stock outstanding may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals, as defined in the Code to include certain entities during the last half of a taxable year other than the first year for which an election to be treated as a REIT has been made.
		

		
			 
		

		
			In addition, if we, or one or more owners of 10% or more of our stock, actually or constructively owns 10% or more of a customer or a customer of any partnership in which we are a partner, the rent 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			3

		

received by us either directly or through any such partnership from such customer generally will not be qualifying income for purposes of the REIT gross income tests of the Code.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The constructive ownership rules under the Code are complex and may cause capital stock owned actually or constructively by a group of related individuals and/or entities to be owned constructively by one individual or entity.  As a result, the acquisition of less than 9.8% of the common stock, preferred stock or capital stock or the acquisition or ownership of an interest in an entity that owns, actually or constructively, common stock, preferred stock or capital stock, by an individual or entity could nevertheless cause that individual or entity, or another individual or entity, to own constructively in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding common stock, preferred stock or capital stock and thus subject such common stock, preferred stock or capital stock to the remedy provision under the ownership limits.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our charter contains restrictions on the ownership and transfer of any shares of our common stock and capital stock that are intended, among other purposes, to assist us in complying with these requirements and continuing to qualify as a REIT.  The relevant sections of our charter provide that, subject to the exceptions described below, no person or entity may actually or beneficially own, or be deemed to own by virtue of the applicable constructive ownership provisions of the Code, more than 9.8% (in value or in number of shares, whichever is more restrictive) of the outstanding shares of our common stock, or the common stock ownership limit, or 9.8% (in value) of the aggregate of the outstanding shares of our capital stock, or the aggregate stock ownership limit.  For purposes of determining the percentage ownership of our capital stock by any person, warrants and rights to acquire capital stock that are treated as owned by that person are deemed outstanding.  The value and number of the outstanding shares of our common stock and the value of the outstanding shares of capital stock will be determined by the board of directors in good faith, which will be conclusive for all purposes.  We refer to these restrictions as the “ownership limits.” In addition, except as a person may be exempted by our board of directors, no person may own capital stock either actually or constructively to the extent that such ownership would cause us to actually or constructively own 10% or more of the ownership interests of any of our tenants or customers.  We refer to this as the “tenant limitation.”
		

		
			 
		

		
			Subject to various conditions and limitations, our board of directors has granted exemptions from the ownership limits to certain real estate funds affiliated with The Carlyle Group, or Carlyle, and their affiliates and to certain other stockholders.
		

		
			  
		

		
			Our charter also prohibits (a) any person from actually, beneficially or constructively owning shares of our stock that would result in our being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or otherwise cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT and (b) any transfer of our stock if the transfer would result in our stock being beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons.  Any person who acquires or attempts or intends to acquire beneficial or constructive ownership of shares of our stock that will or may violate any of these restrictions, or who is the intended transferee of shares of our stock that are transferred to the trust as described below, must give us contemporaneous written notice or, in the case of a proposed or attempted transaction, at least 15 days prior written notice, and provide us with such information as we may request in order to determine the effect of the transfer on our status as a REIT.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The restrictions on ownership and transfer of our capital stock described above became effective with respect to our common stock upon the completion of our initial public offering, and we expect they will become effective with respect to any other series of capital stock upon the completion of that offering and, in each case, will not apply if our board of directors determines that it is no longer in our best interests 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			4

		

to attempt to, or continue to, qualify as a REIT or that compliance is no longer required in order for us to qualify as a REIT.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, prospectively or retroactively, exempt a person from one or any of the ownership limits and/or tenant limitation.  However, our board of directors may not exempt any person whose actual, beneficial or constructive ownership of our outstanding stock would result in our failing to qualify as a REIT.  Prior to granting an exemption our board of directors may require the person seeking an exemption to make certain representations and undertakings or to agree that any violation or attempted violation of these restrictions will result in the automatic transfer of the shares of stock causing the violation to the trust described below.  Our board of directors may also require a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, or an opinion of counsel in order to determine or ensure our status as a REIT and may impose any conditions or restrictions on an exemption as it deems appropriate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Any attempted transfer of our stock that, if effective, would result in our stock being owned by fewer than 100 persons will be null and void and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such shares.  Any attempted transfer of our stock which, if effective, would result in a violation of either of the ownership limits or tenant limitation, our being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code (without regard to whether the interest is held during the last half of a taxable year) or our otherwise failing to qualify as a REIT will cause the number of shares of stock causing the violation (rounded up to the nearest whole share) to be automatically transferred to a trustee of a trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more charitable beneficiaries, and the proposed transferee will not acquire any rights in the shares of stock.  The automatic transfer will be effective as of the close of business on the business day prior to the date of the attempted transfer or other event that resulted in the transfer to the trust.  If a transfer to the trust does not occur or is not automatically effective, for any reason, to prevent a violation of the applicable restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock, then the attempted transfer that, if effective, would have resulted in a violation of the restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock will be null and void and the intended transferee shall acquire no rights in such shares.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Shares of our stock held in the trust will be issued and outstanding.  The proposed transferee shall have no rights in the shares held by the trustee.  The proposed transferee will not benefit economically from ownership of any shares of our stock held in the trust, and will have no rights to dividends and no rights to vote or other rights attributable to the shares of stock held in the trust.  The trustee of the trust will have all voting rights and rights to dividends or other distributions with respect to shares of stock held in the trust.  These rights will be exercised by the trustee of the trust for the exclusive benefit of the charitable beneficiary.  Any dividend or other distribution paid prior to our discovery that shares of stock have been transferred to the trustee must be paid by the recipient to the trustee upon demand.  Any dividend or other distribution authorized but unpaid will be paid when due to the trustee.  Any dividend or other distribution paid to the trustee will be held in trust for the charitable beneficiary.  Subject to Maryland law, the trustee may (i) rescind as void any vote cast by the proposed transferee prior to our discovery that the shares of our stock have been transferred to the trustee and (ii) recast the vote in accordance with the desires of the trustee acting for the benefit of the charitable beneficiary.  However, if we have already taken irreversible corporate action, then the trustee may not rescind or recast the vote.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Within 20 days of receiving notice from us that shares of stock have been transferred to the trust, the trustee must sell the shares of stock to a person designated by the trustee whose ownership of the stock will not violate any of the foregoing restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock.  Upon the sale, the interest of the charitable beneficiary in the stock sold will terminate and the trustee must distribute the 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			5

		

net proceeds of the sale to the proposed transferee and to the charitable beneficiary as follows.  The proposed transferee will receive the lesser of (i) the price paid by the proposed transferee for the shares of stock or, if the proposed transferee did not give value for the shares of stock in connection with the event causing the shares of stock to be held in the trust (e.g., a gift, devise or other similar transaction), the market price of the shares of stock, which will generally be the last sale price of our stock reported on the NYSE, on the day of the event that resulted in the transfer of such stock to the trust and (ii) the price per share received by the trustee (net of any commissions and other expenses of the sale) from the sale or other disposition of the stock.  The trustee may reduce the amount payable to the proposed transferee by the amount of any dividends or other distributions that we paid to the proposed transferee before we discovered that the shares of stock had been transferred to the trust and that is owed by the proposed transferee to the trustee as described above.  Any net sale proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the proposed transferee must be paid immediately to the charitable beneficiary.  If, prior to our discovery that shares of stock have been transferred to the trust, the shares of stock are sold by the proposed transferee, then (i) the shares of stock will be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the trust and (ii) to the extent that the proposed transferee received an amount for the shares of our stock that exceeds the amount the proposed transferee was entitled to receive, the excess must be paid to the trustee upon demand.
		

		
			 
		

		
			In addition, shares of our stock held in the trust will be deemed to have been offered for sale to us, or our designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that resulted in the transfer to the trust (or, in the case of a devise or gift, the market price of the shares at the time of the devise or gift) and (ii) the market price, on the date we, or our designee, accept the offer.  We may reduce the amount payable to the proposed transferee by the amount of any dividends or other distributions that we paid to the proposed transferee and are owed by the proposed transferee to the trustee as described above, and we may pay such amount to the trustee for distribution to the charitable beneficiary.  We may accept the offer until the trustee has sold the stock.  Upon a sale to us, the interest of the charitable beneficiary in the stock sold will terminate and the trustee must distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the proposed transferee.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Any certificates representing shares of our stock, and any notices delivered in lieu of certificates with respect to the issuance or transfer of uncertificated shares of our stock, will bear a legend referring to the restrictions described above.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Every owner of 5% or more (or such lower percentage as required by the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder) of our outstanding stock, within 30 days after the end of each taxable year, must give us written notice, stating the stockholder’s name and address, the number of shares of each class and series of our stock beneficially owned and a description of the manner in which such shares are held.  Each such owner must provide us with any additional information we may request in order to determine the effect, if any, of the stockholder’s beneficial ownership on our status as a REIT and to ensure compliance with the common stock ownership limit and the aggregate stock ownership limit.  In addition, each stockholder must, upon demand, provide us with such information as we may request, in good faith, in order to determine our status as a REIT and to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental authority or to determine such compliance.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The board of directors has determined that the restrictions on transferability and ownership of shares of stock are necessary and advisable for us to qualify as a REIT.  The charter provides that the current restrictions may be modified by our board of directors, without a stockholder vote, provided that (a) the board of directors determines that such modification is necessary or advisable to assist us in qualifying as a REIT as a result of a change in the provisions of the Code or any regulation thereunder, 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			6

		

published ruling or interpretation of such provisions or regulations relating to requirements to qualify as a REIT; (b) upon such determination, the board of directors will adopt a resolution setting forth such modification; and (c) we will file a certificate of notice with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland that sets forth the modification.
		

		
			 
		

		
			These restrictions on ownership and transfer of our stock could delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for the capital stock or that our stockholders might otherwise believe is in their best interests.
		

		
			Certain Provisions of Maryland Law and of Our Charter and Bylaws 
		

		
			The following summary of certain provisions of MGCL and of our charter and bylaws does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to Maryland law and our charter and bylaws.  
		

		
			Board of Directors
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our charter provides that the number of directors may be increased or decreased by a majority vote of our entire board of directors pursuant to our bylaws, but shall never be less than the minimum number required by the MGCL.  Our bylaws provide a majority of our entire board may increase or decrease the number of directors, provided that the number of directors may not be decreased to fewer than the minimum number required under the MGCL, which is one, nor increased to more than 15.  Any and all vacancies on our board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors, even if less than a quorum, except that a vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the board of directors must be filled by a majority vote of the entire board of directors, and any individual elected to fill such vacancy will serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until a successor is duly elected and qualifies.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our bylaws require that nominees for director, whether for election by the stockholders or by the board of directors, shall include such number of individuals as are entitled to be nominated pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of CoreSite, L.P.  Each of our directors will be elected by our stockholders to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualifies.  A plurality of all votes cast on the matter at a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present is sufficient to elect a director.  The presence in person or by proxy of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at a meeting constitutes a quorum.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Removal of Directors
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our charter provides that, subject to any rights of our preferred stockholders to elect or remove one or more of our directors, a director may be removed with or without cause only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Business Combinations
		

		
			 
		

		
			Under Maryland law, business combinations between a Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder.  These business combinations 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			7

		

include, among other things, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, or, in circumstances specified in the statute, an asset transfer or issuance or reclassification of equity securities.
		

		
			 
		

		
			An interested stockholder is defined as:
		

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			any person who beneficially owns ten percent or more of the voting power of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock; or

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			an affiliate or associate of the corporation who, at any time within the two-year period prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock of the corporation.

		
			 
		

		
			A person is not an interested stockholder under the statute if the board of directors approved in advance the transaction by which he otherwise would have become an interested stockholder.  However, in approving a transaction, the board of directors may provide that its approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of approval, with any terms and conditions determined by the board of directors.
		

		
			 
		

		
			After the five-year prohibition, any business combination between the Maryland corporation and an interested stockholder generally must be recommended by the board of directors of the corporation and approved by the affirmative vote of at least:
		

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			80% of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding shares of voting stock of the corporation; and

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of voting stock of the corporation other than shares held by the interested stockholder with whom or with whose affiliate the business combination is to be effected or held by an affiliate or associate of the interested stockholder.

		
			 
		

		
			These super-majority voting requirements do not apply if the corporation’s common stockholders receive a minimum price, as defined under Maryland law, for their shares in the form of cash or other consideration in the same form as previously paid by the interested stockholder for its shares.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The statute permits various exemptions from its provisions, including business combinations that are exempted by the board of directors before the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder.  As permitted by statute, we have opted out of the business combination provisions of the MGCL by resolution of our board of directors.  However, our board of directors may opt into these provisions if approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast and with the consent of the Carlyle real estate funds or their affiliates, provided that such consent of the Carlyle entities will not be required if at such time, they own less than 10% of our outstanding common stock (assuming all operating partnership units are exchanged for common stock).
		

		
			 
		

		
			If the foregoing resolution is rescinded, the business combination statute may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us and increase the difficulty of consummating an offer.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Control Share Acquisitions
		

		
			 
		

		
			Maryland law provides that a holder of control shares of a Maryland corporation acquired in a control share acquisition has no voting rights with respect to such shares except to the extent approved by 

		 

		

			 

		

		

			8

		

at least two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by stockholders entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, but excluding the acquiring person, officers and employees who are directors of the corporation.  Control shares are voting shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other shares of stock owned by the acquiring person or in respect of which the acquiring person is able to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable proxy), would entitle the acquiring person to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of the following ranges of voting power:
		

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			one-tenth or more but less than one-third;

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			one-third or more but less than a majority; or

		
			 
		

			
	
			
				 ·
			

			
	
			
			a majority or more of all voting power.

		
			 
		

		
			Control shares do not include shares that the acquiring person is then entitled to vote as a result of having previously obtained stockholder approval or shares acquired directly from the corporation.  A control share acquisition means the direct or indirect acquisition of issued and outstanding control shares, subject to certain exceptions.
		

		
			 
		

		
			A person who has made or proposes to make a control share acquisition may compel the board of directors of the corporation to call a special meeting of stockholders to be held within 50 days of demand to consider the voting rights of the holder of the shares acquired or proposed to be acquired.  The right to compel the calling of a special meeting is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including an undertaking to pay the expenses of the meeting.  If no request for a meeting is made, the corporation may itself present the question at any stockholders meeting.
		

		
			 
		

		
			If voting rights are not approved at the meeting or if the acquiring person does not deliver an acquiring person statement as required by the statute, then the corporation may redeem for fair value any or all of the control shares, except those for which voting rights have previously been approved.  The right of our company to redeem control shares is subject to certain conditions and limitations.  Fair value is determined, without regard to the absence of voting rights for the control shares, as of the date of the last control share acquisition by the acquiring person or of any meeting of stockholders at which the voting rights of the holders of the shares are considered and not approved.  If voting rights for the holder of the control shares are approved at a stockholders meeting and the acquiring person becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights.  The fair value of the shares as determined for purposes of appraisal rights may not be less than the highest price per share paid by the acquiring person in the control share acquisition.
		

		
			 
		

		
			The control share acquisition statute does not apply (i) to shares acquired in a merger, consolidation or statutory share exchange if the corporation is a party to the transaction, or (ii) to acquisitions approved or exempted by the charter or bylaws of the corporation.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the control share acquisition statute any and all acquisitions by any person of shares of our stock.  However, our board of directors may opt into these provisions if approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast and, as it would apply to the Carlyle real estate funds or their affiliates, with the Carlyle real estate funds or their affiliates’ consent, provided that the consent of the Carlyle entities will not be required if at such time they own less than 10% of our outstanding common stock (assuming all operating partnership units are exchanged for common stock).
		

		
			

		 

		

			 

		

		

			9

		

		

		
			 
		

		
			There can be no assurance that, subject to the approval of our stockholders, this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future by our board of directors.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Amendment to our Charter and Bylaws
		

		
			 
		

		
			In general, our charter may be amended if an amendment is declared advisable by our board of directors and approved by the affirmative vote of stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter.

the Plan, as the Committee may deem appropriate in each case.

having a fair market value on the exercise date equal to the total Option price, or by any combination of cash, Shares and other
consideration as the Committee may specify in the applicable Award Agreement.

Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of exercise or, if the Committee shall so determine, at any time during a specified
period before the date of exercise over (ii) the grant price of the right on the date of grant, or if granted in connection
with an outstanding Option on the date of grant of the related Option, as specified by the Committee in its sole discretion, which,
except in the case of Converted Awards or Substitute Awards or in connection with an adjustment provided in Section 4(f),
shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of one Share on such date of grant of the right or the related Option, as the case
may be. Any payment by the Company in respect of such right may be made in cash, Shares, other property or any combination thereof,
as the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall determine. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, establish a limit on the
amount of gain that can be realized on a Stock Appreciation Right.

 

		(a)	Grant Price. The grant price for a Stock Appreciation Right shall be determined by the Committee, provided, however,
and except as provided in Section 4(f) or with respect to Converted Awards or Substitute Awards, that such price shall not
be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of one Share on the date of grant of the Stock Appreciation Right.

 

		(b)	Term. The term of each Stock Appreciation Right shall not exceed ten years from the date of grant, or if granted in
tandem with an Option, the expiration date of the Option.

 

		(c)	Time and Method of Exercise. The Committee shall establish the time or times at which a Stock Appreciation Right may
be exercised in whole or in part.

SECTION 8. RESTRICTED SHARES. 

 

		(a)	Definition. A Restricted Share means any Share issued with the contingency or restriction that the holder may not sell,
transfer, pledge or assign such Share and with such other contingencies or restrictions as the Committee, in its sole discretion,
may impose (including, without limitation, any contingency or restriction on the right to vote such Share), which contingencies
and restrictions may lapse separately or in combination, at such time or times, in installments or otherwise, as the Committee
may deem appropriate.

 

		(b)	Issuance. A Restricted Share Award shall be subject to contingencies or restrictions imposed by the Committee during
a period of time specified by the Committee (the “Contingency Period”). Restricted Share Awards may be
issued hereunder to Participants, for no cash consideration or for such minimum consideration as may be required by applicable
law, either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under the Plan. The terms and conditions of Restricted Share Awards need
not be the same with respect to each recipient.

 

		(c)	Registration. Any Restricted Share issued hereunder may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee in its sole discretion
shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, book-entry registration or issuance of a stock certificate or certificates.
In the event any stock certificate is issued in respect of Restricted Shares awarded under the Plan, such certificate shall be
registered in the name of the Participant and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, contingencies
and restrictions applicable to such Award.

 

		(d)	Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of grant or thereafter or as otherwise set forth
in the terms and conditions of an Award, upon termination of service for any reason during the Contingency Period, all Restricted
Shares still subject to any contingency or restriction shall be forfeited by the Participant and reacquired by the Company.

 

		(e)	Section 83(b) Election. A Participant may, with the consent of the Company, make an election under Section 83(b)
of the Code to report the value of Restricted Shares as income on the date of grant.

 

SECTION 9. RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS. 

 

		(a)	Definition. A Restricted Share Unit is an Award of a right to receive, in cash or Shares, as the Committee may determine,
the Fair Market Value of one Share, the grant, issuance, retention and/or vesting of which is subject to such terms and conditions
as the Committee may determine at the time of the grant, which shall not be inconsistent with this Plan.

 

		(b)	Terms and Conditions. In addition to the terms and conditions that may be established at the time of a grant of Restricted
Share Unit Awards, the following terms and conditions apply:

 

		(i)	Restricted Share Unit Awards may not be sold, pledged (except as permitted under Section 15(a)) or otherwise encumbered
prior to the date on which the Shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable contingency, restriction or performance
period lapses.

 

		(ii)	Shares (including securities convertible into Shares) subject to Restricted Share Unit Awards may be issued for no cash consideration
or for such minimum consideration as may be required by applicable law. Shares (including securities convertible into Shares) purchased
pursuant to a purchase right granted under this SECTION 9 thereafter shall be purchased for such consideration as the Committee
shall in its sole discretion determine, which shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of such Shares or other securities as
of the date such purchase right is granted.

 

		(iii)	The terms and conditions of Restricted Share Unit Awards need not be the same with respect to each recipient.

 

    9

     

    

 

SECTION 10. OTHER AWARDS. Other Awards of Shares and
other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, Shares or other property (“Other
Awards”) may be granted to Participants. Other Awards may be paid in Shares, cash or any other form of property as
the Committee shall determine. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have sole and complete authority to determine
the Participants to whom, and the time or times at which, such Awards shall be made, the number of Shares to be granted pursuant
to such Awards and all other conditions of the Awards. The terms and conditions of Other Awards need not be the same with respect
to each recipient.

 

SECTION 11. PERFORMANCE AWARDS. Awards with a performance
feature are referred to as “Performance Awards”. Performance Awards may be granted in the form of Options, Stock Appreciation
Rights, Restricted Share Units, Restricted Shares or Other Awards with the features and restrictions applicable thereto. The performance
criteria to be achieved during any Performance Period and the length of the Performance Period shall be determined by the Committee
upon the grant of each Performance Award, provided that the minimum performance period shall be one year, except with respect to
Converted Awards. Performance Awards may be paid in cash, Shares, other property or any combination thereof in the sole discretion
of the Committee. The performance levels to be achieved for each Performance Period and the amount of the Award to be paid shall
be conclusively determined by the Committee. Except as provided in SECTION 12, each Performance Award shall be paid following the
end of the Performance Period or, if later, the date on which any applicable contingency or restriction has ended. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, Performance Awards granted to Executive Officers will be subject to the additional terms set forth
in SECTION 13.

 

SECTION 12. CHANGE IN CONTROL PROVISIONS.

 

		(a)	Effect of a Change in Control on Existing Awards under this Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to
the contrary, unless the Committee shall determine otherwise at the time of grant with respect to a particular Award, in the event
of a Change in Control:

 

		(i)	any Time-Based Award consisting of Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or any other Time-Based Award in the form of rights that
are exercisable by Participants upon vesting (“Exercisable Time-Based Award”), that is outstanding as
of the date on which a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred and that is not then vested, shall become vested and
exercisable, unless replaced by a Replacement Award;

 

		(ii)	any Time-Based Award that is not an Exercisable Time-Based Award that is outstanding as of the date on which a Change in Control
shall be deemed to have occurred and that is not then vested, shall become free of all contingencies, restrictions and limitations
and shall become vested and transferable, unless replaced by a Replacement Award;

 

		(iii)	any Replacement Award for which an Exercisable Time-Based Award has been exchanged upon a Change in Control shall vest and
become exercisable in accordance with the vesting schedule and term for exercisability that applied to the corresponding Exercisable
Time-Based Award immediately prior to such Change in Control, provided, however, that if within twenty four (24) months
of such Change in Control, the Participant’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated without Cause (as such
term is defined in the Arconic Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan) or by the Participant for Good Reason (as such term
is defined in the Arconic Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan), such Award shall become vested and exercisable to the
extent outstanding at the time of such termination of service. Any Replacement Award that has become vested and exercisable pursuant
to this paragraph shall expire on the earlier of (A) thirty six (36) months
following the date of termination of such Participant’s service (or, if later, the conclusion of the applicable post-termination
exercise period pursuant to the applicable Award Agreement) and (B) the last day of the term of such Replacement Award;

 

    10

     

    

 

		(iv)	any Replacement Award for which a Time-Based Award that is not an Exercisable Time-Based Award has been exchanged upon a Change
in Control shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule that applied to the corresponding Time-Based Award immediately prior
to such Change in Control, provided, however, that if within twenty four (24) months of such Change in Control,
the Participant’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated without Cause (as such term is defined in the Arconic
Corporation Change in Control Severance Plan) or by the Participant for Good Reason (as such term is defined in the Arconic Corporation
Change in Control Severance Plan), such Award shall become free of all contingencies, restrictions and limitations and become vested
and transferable to the extent outstanding;

 

		(v)	any Performance Award shall be converted so that such Award is no longer subject to any performance condition referred to in
SECTION 11 above, but instead is subject to the passage of time, with the number or value of such Replacement Award determined
as follows: (A) if 50% or more of the Performance Period has been completed as of the date on which such Change in Control
is deemed to have occurred, the number or value of such Award shall be based on actual performance during the Performance Period;
or (B) if less than 50% of the Performance Period has been completed as of the date on which such Change in Control is deemed
to have occurred, the number or value of such Award shall be the target number or value. Paragraphs (i) through (iv) above
shall govern the terms of such Time-Based Award.

 

		(b)	Change in Control Settlement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, if approved by the Committee, upon a
Change in Control, a Participant may receive a cash settlement under clauses (i) and (ii) below of existing Awards that
are vested and exercisable as of the date on which such Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred:

 

		(i)	a Participant who holds an Option or Stock Appreciation Right may, in lieu of the payment of the purchase price for the Shares
being purchased under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right, surrender the Option or Stock Appreciation Right to the Company and
receive cash, within 30 days of the Change in Control in an amount equal to the amount by which the Fair Market Value of the Shares
on the date of the Change in Control exceeds the purchase price per Share under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right multiplied
by the number of Shares granted under the Option or Stock Appreciation Right; and

 

		(ii)	a Participant who holds Restricted Share Units may, in lieu of receiving Shares which have vested under Section 12(a)(ii)
of this Plan, receive cash, within 30 days of a Change in Control (or at such other time as may be required to comply with Section
409A of the Code), in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of the Change in Control multiplied by
the number of Restricted Share Units held by the Participant.

 

SECTION 13. PERFORMANCE AWARDS GRANTED TO EXECUTIVE OFFICERS.

 

		(a)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, if the Committee grants a Performance Award to a Participant who is an Executive
Officer, such Performance Award will be subject to the terms of this SECTION 13, unless otherwise expressly determined by the Committee.

 

		(b)	If
                                         an Award is subject to this SECTION 13 and is not an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right,
                                         then the lapsing of contingencies or restrictions thereon and the distribution of cash,
                                         Shares or other property pursuant thereto, as applicable, shall be subject to the achievement
                                         by the Company on a consolidated basis, by specified Subsidiaries or divisions or business
                                         units of the Company, and/or by the individual Participant, as appropriate, of one or
                                         more performance goals established by the Committee. Performance goals shall be based
                                         on such measures as selected by the Committee in its discretion, including, without limitation,
                                         (i) GAAP or non-GAAP metrics, (ii) total shareholder return or other return-based metrics,
                                         (iii) operational, efficiency-based, strategic corporate or personal professional objectives,
                                         (iv) sustainability or compliance targets or (v) any other metric that is capable of
                                         measurement as determined by the Committee. Performance goals may be calculated to exclude
                                         special items, unusual or infrequently occurring items or nonrecurring items or may be
                                         normalized for fluctuations in market forces, including, but not limited to, foreign
                                         currency exchange rates and the price of aluminum on the London Metal Exchange. Performance
                                         goals shall be set by the Committee (and any adjustments shall be made by the Committee,
                                         subject to Section 15(d)) within the first 25% of the Performance Period.

 

    11

     

    

 

		(c)	Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan other than Section 4(f) and SECTION 12, with respect to any Award that is subject
to this SECTION 13 (other than an Option or a Stock Appreciation Right), the Committee may adjust downwards, but not upwards, the
amount payable pursuant to such Award, and the Committee may not waive the achievement of the applicable performance goals.

 

		(d)	Subject to the adjustment provisions of Section 4(f), with respect to Awards subject to this SECTION 13, no
                                                            Participant may be granted Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights in any calendar year with respect to more than 2,500,000
                                                            Shares, or Restricted Share Awards or Restricted Share Unit Awards covering more than  750,000 Shares. The maximum dollar
                                                            value payable with respect to Performance Awards that are valued with reference to property other than Shares and granted to
                                                            any Participant in any one calendar year is $15,000,000. The foregoing limits shall apply to any Awards made under this
                                                            SECTION 13, other than to Converted Awards which shall be disregarded for purposes of applying such limits.

 

SECTION 14. AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION. The Board may
amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that notwithstanding
any other provision in this Plan, no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made: (a) without
shareholder approval, if such approval would be required pursuant to applicable law or the requirements of the New York Stock Exchange
or such other stock exchange on which the Shares trade; or (b) without the consent of the affected Participant, if such action
would materially impair the rights of such Participant under any outstanding Award, except as provided in Sections 15(e) and 15(f).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary so as to have
the Plan conform to local rules and regulations in any jurisdiction outside the United States or to qualify for or comply with
any tax or regulatory requirement for which or with which the Board or Committee deems it necessary or desirable to qualify or
comply.

 

SECTION 15. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 

 

		(a)	Transferability of Awards. Awards may be transferred by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Except as set
forth herein, awards shall be exercisable, during the Participant’s lifetime, only by the Participant or, if permissible
under applicable law, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee or
limited by applicable laws, a Participant may, in the manner established by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise
the rights of the Participant with respect to any Award upon the death of the Participant. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee
or limited by applicable laws, Awards may be transferred to one or more Family Members, individually or jointly,
or to a trust whose beneficiaries include the Participant or one or more Family Members under terms and conditions established
by the Committee. The Committee shall have authority to determine, at the time of grant, any other rights or restrictions applicable
to the transfer of Awards; provided however, that no Award may be transferred to a third party for value or consideration.
Except as provided in this Plan or the terms and conditions established for an Award, any Award shall be null and void and without
effect upon any attempted assignment or transfer, including, without limitation, any purported assignment, whether voluntary or
by operation of law, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition, attachment, divorce or trustee process or similar process, whether
legal or equitable.

 

    12

     

    

 

		(b)	Award Entitlement. No Employee or Director shall have any claim to be granted any Award under the Plan and there is
no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Employees or Directors under the Plan.

 

		(c)	Terms and Conditions of Award. The prospective recipient of any Award under the Plan shall be deemed to have become
a Participant subject to all the applicable terms and conditions of the Award upon the grant of the Award to the prospective recipient,
unless the prospective recipient notifies the Company within 30 days of the grant that the prospective recipient does not accept
the Award. This Section 15(c) is without prejudice to the Company’s right to require a Participant to affirmatively
accept the terms and conditions of an Award.

 

		(d)	Award Adjustments. The Committee shall be authorized to make adjustments in Performance Award criteria or in the terms
and conditions of other Awards in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company or its financial statements
or changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles. The Committee may correct any defect, supply any omission
or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award in the manner and to the extent it shall deem desirable to carry it into
effect.

 

		(e)	Committee Right to Cancel. The Committee shall have full power and authority to determine whether, to what extent and
under what circumstances any Award shall be canceled or suspended at any time prior to a Change in Control: (i) if an Employee,
without the consent of the Committee, while employed by the Company or a Subsidiary or after termination of such employment, becomes
associated with, employed by, renders services to or owns any interest (other than an interest of up to 5% in a publicly traded
company or any other nonsubstantial interest, as determined by the Committee) in any business that is in competition with the Company
or any Subsidiary; (ii) in the event of the Participant’s willful engagement in conduct which is injurious to the Company
or any Subsidiary, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise; (iii) in the event of an Executive Officer’s misconduct
described in Section 15(f); or (iv) in order to comply with applicable laws as described in Section 15(h) below.
For purposes of clause (ii), no act, or failure to act, on the Participant’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless
done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s act,
or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company or a Subsidiary. In the event of a dispute concerning the application
of this Section 15(e), no claim by the Company shall be given effect unless the Board determines that there is clear and convincing
evidence that the Committee has the right to cancel an Award or Awards hereunder, and the Board finding to that effect is adopted
by the affirmative vote of not less than three quarters of the entire membership of the Board (after reasonable notice to the Participant
and an opportunity for the Participant to provide information to the Board in such manner as the Board, in its sole discretion,
deems to be appropriate under the circumstances).

 

		(f)	Clawback. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in accordance with the Company’s Corporate
Governance Guidelines, if the Board learns of any misconduct by an Executive Officer that contributed to the Company having to
restate all or a portion of its financial statements, the Board will, to the full extent permitted by governing law, in all appropriate
cases, effect the cancellation and recovery of Awards (or the value of Awards) previously granted to the Executive Officer if:
(i) the amount of the Award was calculated based upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently
the subject of a restatement, (ii) the executive engaged in intentional misconduct that caused or partially caused the need
for the restatement, and (iii) the amount of the Award had the financial results been properly reported would have been lower
than the amount actually awarded. Furthermore, all Awards (including Awards that have vested in accordance with the Award Agreement)
shall be subject to the terms and conditions, if applicable, of any other recoupment policy adopted by the Company from time to
time or any recoupment requirement imposed under applicable laws, rules, regulations or stock exchange listing standards, including,
without limitation, recoupment requirements imposed pursuant to Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act of 2010, Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or any regulations promulgated thereunder, or recoupment
requirements under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

    13

     

    

 

		(g)	Stock Certificate Legends. All certificates for Shares delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Award shall be subject
to such stock transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other
requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Shares are then listed and any applicable
Federal or state securities law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions.

 

		(h)	Compliance with Securities Laws and Other Requirements. No Award granted hereunder shall be construed as an offer to
sell securities of the Company, and no such offer shall be outstanding, unless and until the Company in its sole discretion has
determined that any such offer, if made, would be in compliance with all applicable requirements of the U.S. Federal securities
laws and any other laws, rules, regulations, stock exchange listing or other requirements to which such offer, if made, would be
subject. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to issue or deliver Shares pursuant to Awards granted
hereunder prior to: (i) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable,
and (ii) completion of any registration or other qualification with respect to the Shares under any applicable law in the
United States or in a jurisdiction outside of the United States or procurement of any ruling or determination of any governmental
body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable or at a time when any such registration, qualification or determination
is not current, has been suspended or otherwise has ceased to be effective. The inability or impracticability of the Company to
obtain or maintain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel
to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the Company of any liability in respect
of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained, and shall constitute
circumstances in which the Committee may determine to amend or cancel Awards pertaining to such Shares, with or without consideration
to the affected Participants.

 

		(i)	Dividends. No Award of Options or Stock Appreciation
Rights shall have the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents. A recipient of an Award of Restricted Shares shall receive
dividends on the Restricted Shares, subject to this Section 15(i) and such other contingencies or restrictions, if any, as the
Committee, in its sole discretion, may impose. Dividend equivalents shall accrue on Restricted Share Units (including Restricted
Share Units that have a performance feature) and shall only be paid if and when such Restricted Share Units vest. Dividend equivalents
that accrue on Restricted Share Units will be calculated at the same rate as dividends paid on the common stock of the Company.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no dividends or dividend equivalents shall be paid on Restricted Share Units
that have not vested or on Restricted Share Units that have not been earned during a Performance Period and in no event shall
any other Award provide for the Participant’s receipt of dividends or dividend equivalents in any form prior to the vesting
of such Award or applicable portion thereof.

 

    14

     

    

 

		(j)	Consideration for Awards. Except as otherwise required in any applicable Award Agreement or by the terms of the Plan,
recipients of Awards under the Plan shall not be required to make any payment or provide consideration other than the rendering
of services.

 

		(k)	Delegation of Authority by Committee. The Committee may delegate to one or more Executive Officers or a committee of
Executive Officers the right to grant Awards to Employees who are not Executive Officers or Directors of the Company and to cancel
or suspend Awards to Employees who are not Executive Officers or Directors of the Company. The Committee may delegate other of
its administrative powers under the Plan to the extent not prohibited by applicable laws.

 

		(l)	Tax Obligations. The Company shall be authorized to withhold from any Award granted or payment due under the Plan the
amount of Tax Obligations due in respect of an Award or payment hereunder and to take such other action as may be necessary in
the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such Tax Obligations, including without limitation requiring
the Participant to pay cash, withholding otherwise deliverable cash or Shares having a fair market value equal to the amount required
to be withheld, forcing the sale of Shares issued pursuant to an Award (or exercise or vesting thereof) having a fair market value
equal to the amount required to be withheld, or requiring the Participant to deliver to the Company already-owned Shares having
a fair market value equal to the amount required to be withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, “Tax Obligations”
means tax, social insurance and social security liability obligations and requirements in connection with the Awards, including,
without limitation, (i) all U.S. Federal, state, and local income, employment and any other taxes (including the Participant’s
U.S. Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) obligation) that are required to be withheld by the Company (or a Subsidiary, as
applicable), (ii) the Participant’s and, to the extent required by the Company (or a Subsidiary, as applicable), the
Company’s (or a Subsidiary’s) fringe benefit tax liability, if any, associated with the grant, vesting, or exercise
of an Award or sale of Shares issued under the Award, and (iii) any other taxes, social insurance, social security liabilities
or premium for which the Participant has an obligation, or which the Participant has agreed to bear, with respect to such Award
(or exercise thereof or issuance of Shares or other consideration thereunder). Furthermore, the Committee shall be authorized to,
but is not required to, establish procedures for election by Participants to satisfy such obligations for the payment of such taxes
by delivery of or transfer of Shares to the Company or by directing the Company to retain Shares otherwise deliverable in connection
with the Award. All personal taxes applicable to any Award under the Plan are the sole liability of the Participant.

 

		(m)	Other Compensatory Arrangements. Nothing contained in this Plan shall prevent the Board from adopting other or additional
compensation arrangements, subject to shareholder approval if such approval is required; and such arrangements may be either generally
applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

 

		(n)	Governing Law. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken thereunder, to the extent not otherwise governed
by the laws of the United States, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, without reference
to principles of conflict of laws, and construed accordingly.

 

    15

     

    

 

		(o)	Severability. If any provision of this Plan is or becomes or is deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or
deemed amended to conform to applicable laws or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the
Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan, it shall be stricken and the remainder of the Plan shall remain in full
force and effect.

 

		(p)	Awards to Non-U.S. Employees. Awards may be granted to Employees and Directors who are foreign nationals or residents
or employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to Employees
and Directors who are not foreign nationals or residents or who are employed in the United States as may, in the judgment of the
Committee, be necessary or desirable in order to recognize differences in local law, regulations or tax policy. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Committee or the Board, as applicable, are specifically authorized to (i) adopt rules
and procedures regarding the conversion of local currency, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates which vary
with local requirements and (ii) adopt sub-plans, Award Agreements and Plan and Award Agreement addenda as may be deemed desirable
to accommodate foreign laws, regulations and practice. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards
in order to minimize the Company’s or a Subsidiary’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Employees on assignments
outside their home countries. Notwithstanding the discretion of the Committee under this section, the Participant remains solely
liable for any applicable personal taxes.

 

		(q)	Repricing Prohibited. Except as provided in Section 4(f), the terms of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation
Rights may not be amended, and action may not otherwise be taken without shareholder approval, to: (i) reduce the exercise
price of outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, (ii) cancel outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in
exchange for Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise price that is less than the exercise price of the original Options
or Stock Appreciation Rights, or (iii) replace outstanding Options or Stock Appreciation Rights in exchange for other Awards
or cash at a time when the exercise price of such Options or Stock Appreciation Rights is higher than the Fair Market Value of
a Share. Nothing in this Section 15(q) shall be construed to apply to the issuance of Converted Awards.

 

		(r)	Deferral. The Committee may require or permit Participants to elect to defer the issuance of Shares or the settlement
of Awards in cash or other property to the extent that such deferral complies with Section 409A of the Code. The Committee
may also authorize the payment or crediting of interest, dividends or dividend equivalents on any deferred amounts.

		(s)	Compliance
                                         with Section 409A of the Code. Except to the extent specifically provided otherwise
                                         by the Committee and notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, Awards under the
                                         Plan are intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code so as
                                         to avoid the imposition of any additional taxes or penalties under Section 409A
                                         of the Code. If the Committee determines that an Award, payment, distribution, transaction
                                         or any other action or arrangement contemplated by the provisions of the Plan would,
                                         if undertaken, cause a Participant to become subject to any additional taxes or other
                                         penalties under Section 409A of the Code, then unless the Committee specifically
                                         provides otherwise, such Award, payment, distribution, transaction or other action or
                                         arrangement shall not be given effect to the extent it causes such result and the related
                                         provisions of the Plan and/or Award Agreement will be deemed modified, or, if necessary,
                                         suspended in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code to
                                         the extent determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case without the consent
                                         of or notice to the Participant. No payment that constitutes deferred compensation under
                                         Section 409A of the Code that would otherwise be made under the Plan or an Award Agreement
                                         upon a Participant’s termination of employment will be made or provided unless
                                         and until such termination is also a “separation from service,” as determined
                                         in accordance with Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything
                                         elsewhere in the Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, if a Participant is a “specified
                                         employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code at the time of termination
                                         of employment with respect to an Award, then solely to the extent necessary to avoid
                                         the imposition of any additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, the commencement
                                         of any payments or benefits under the Award shall be delayed to the extent required by
                                         Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i). Further notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
                                         Plan, to the extent required under Section 409A of the Code in order to make payment
                                         of an Award upon a Change in Control, the applicable transaction or event described in
                                         SECTION 2 must qualify as a change in the ownership or effective control of the Company
                                         or as a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company
                                         pursuant to Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code, and if it does not, then unless otherwise
                                         specified in the applicable Award Agreement, payment of such Award will be made on the
                                         Award’s original payment schedule or, if earlier, upon the death of the Participant.
                                         Although the Company may attempt to avoid adverse tax treatment under Section 409A
                                         of the Code, the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows
                                         any covenant to maintain favorable or avoid unfavorable tax treatment. The Company shall
                                         be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative
                                         tax impact on holders of Awards under the Plan.
