time by the Board. The Board shall fill vacancies on and from time to time may remove or add members to the Committee. The Committee shall act pursuant to a majority vote or unanimous written consent.

with the administration of this Plan, including, without limitation: (a) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules relating to this Plan and to define terms not otherwise defined herein; (b) to prescribe the form of documentation used to
evidence any Stock Option or Stock Award awarded hereunder, including provision for such terms as it considers necessary or desirable, not inconsistent with the terms established by the Board; (c) to establish and verify the extent of

 All decisions, determinations and interpretations by the Board or, except as to the Board, the Committee regarding the Plan, any rules and regulations under the Plan and the terms and conditions of any Stock Option or
Stock Award awarded hereunder, shall be final and binding on all Participants and holders of Stock Options and Stock Awards. The Board and the Committee may consider such factors as it deems relevant, in its sole and absolute discretion, in making
such decisions, determinations and interpretations including, without limitation, the recommendations or advice of any officer or other employee of the Corporation and such attorneys, consultants and accountants as it may select. 
 SECTION 11. ADJUSTMENT OF AND CHANGES IN THE STOCK 
 If the outstanding securities of the class then subject to this Plan are increased, decreased or exchanged for or converted into cash, property or a different number or kind of shares or securities, or if cash, property or shares or
securities are distributed in respect of such outstanding securities, in either case as a result of a reorganization, reclassification, dividend (other than a regular, quarterly cash dividend) or other distribution, stock split, reverse stock split,
spin-off or the like, or if substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation are sold, then the maximum number and type of shares or other securities that may be issued under this Plan shall be appropriately adjusted. The Committee
shall determine in its sole discretion the appropriate adjustment to be effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. In addition, in connection with any such change in the class of securities then subject to this Plan, the Committee
shall make equitable adjustments in the number and type of shares or other securities or cash or other property that may be acquired pursuant to stock options and stock grants theretofore awarded under this Plan and the exercise price of such stock
options or price, if any, of such stock grants. 
 No right to purchase or receive fractional shares shall result from any adjustment in
stock options or stock grants pursuant to this Section 11. In case of any such adjustment, the shares subject to the stock option or stock grant shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share of Common Stock. 
 SECTION 12. REGISTRATION, LISTING OR QUALIFICATION OF STOCK 
 In the event that the Board or the Committee determines in its discretion that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares issuable under the Plan on any securities exchange or under any applicable law

 
or governmental regulation is necessary as a condition to the issuance of such shares under the Stock Option or Stock Award, the Stock Option or Stock Award
shall not be exercisable or exercised in whole or in part unless such registration, listing, qualification, consent or approval has been unconditionally obtained. 
 SECTION 13. TAXES 
 The Board or Committee may make such provisions or impose such conditions as it may deem
appropriate for the withholding or payment by a Participant of any taxes which it determines are necessary or appropriate in connection with any issuance of shares under this Plan, and the rights of a holder of a Stock Option or Stock Award in any
Shares are subject to satisfaction of such conditions. The Corporation shall not be required to issue Shares or to recognize the disposition of such Shares until such obligations are satisfied. At the Participant’s election, any such
obligations may be satisfied by having the Corporation withhold a portion of the shares of Common Stock that otherwise would be issued to the holder of the Stock Option or Stock Award upon exercise of the Stock Option or vesting or receipt of the
Stock Award or by surrendering to the Corporation Shares previously acquired. The Corporation and any affiliate of the Corporation shall not be liable to a Participant or any other persons as to any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any
Participant or other person due to the receipt of any stock options or shares awarded hereunder. 
 SECTION 14. ARBITRATION AND APPLICABLE LAW

 Any claim, dispute or other matter in question of any kind relating to this Plan shall be settled by arbitration before a single
arbitrator and otherwise conducted in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association, which proceedings shall be held in the city in which the Corporation’s executive offices are located. Notice of demand for arbitration
shall be made in writing to the opposing party and to the American Arbitration Association within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute or other matter in question has arisen. In no event shall a demand for arbitration be made after the date
when the applicable statute of limitations would bar the institution of a legal or equitable proceeding based on such claim, dispute or other matter in question. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and may be enforced in any court of
competent jurisdiction. This Plan and any rights hereunder shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal law. 
 SECTION 15. EFFECTIVE DATE, AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN 
 This Plan shall become
effective upon its adoption by the Board, subject to approval by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation present, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote at a meeting of the Corporation’s shareholders. Unless earlier
suspended or terminated by the Board, no Stock Options or Stock Awards may be awarded after the third anniversary of the date the Plan is approved by the Corporation’s shareholders. The Board may periodically amend the Plan as determined
appropriate, without further action by the Corporation’s shareholders except to the extent required by applicable law. 
 The Board may
amend, alter or discontinue the Plan or any agreement evidencing an Award made under the Plan, but no such amendment shall, without the approval of the shareholders of the Corporation: 
 (a) materially increase the number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan; 
 (b) permit granting of Stock Options at less than fair market value; 
 (c) reduce or adjust downward the exercise price of outstanding Stock Options, whether through amendment, cancellation or replacement

approval.Exhibit 10.2

or extraordinary, whether in cash, securities or other property) or distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such Shares
are so registered. 
 (c) Payment of Exercise Price. To the extent authorized by the Committee, the exercise
price of an Option may be paid in the form of one of more of the following, either through the terms of the Award Agreement or at the time of exercise of an Option: (i) cash or certified or cashiers’ check, (ii) Shares that have been
held by the Participant for such period of time as the Committee may specify, (iii) other property deemed acceptable by the Committee, (iv) a reduction in the number of Shares or other property otherwise issuable pursuant to such Option,
(v) any combination of (i) through (iv). 
 SECTION 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 
 Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Participants from time to time either in tandem with or as a component of other Awards granted under the Plan
(“tandem SARs”) or not in conjunction with other Awards (“freestanding SARs”) and may, but need not, relate to a specific Option granted under Section 6. The provisions of Stock Appreciation Rights need not be the same with
respect to each grant or each recipient. Any Stock Appreciation Right granted in tandem with an Award may be granted at the same time such Award is granted or at any time thereafter before exercise or expiration of such Award. All freestanding SARs
shall be granted subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to Options as set forth in Section 6 and all tandem SARs shall have the same exercise price, vesting, exercisability, forfeiture and termination provisions as the Award to
which they relate. Subject to the provisions of Section 6 and the immediately preceding sentence, the Committee may impose such other conditions or restrictions on any Stock Appreciation Right as it shall deem appropriate. Stock Appreciation
Rights may be settled in Shares, cash or a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 SECTION 8. INCENTIVE BONUS 
 Incentive Bonus Awards may be granted at any time and from time to time prior to the
termination of the Plan to Participants as determined by the Committee. 
 8.1 Incentive Bonus Award. Each Incentive Bonus
Award shall contain provisions regarding (a) the target and maximum amount payable to the Employee as an Incentive Bonus, (b) the performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria which shall determine the amount of such
payment, (c) the period as to which performance shall be measured for determining the amount of any payment, (d) the timing of any payment earned by virtue of performance, (e) restrictions on the alienation or transfer of the
Incentive Bonus prior to actual payment, (f) forfeiture provisions, and (g) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined from time to time by the Committee. 
 8.2 Performance Criteria. The Committee shall establish the performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria, which
shall determine the maximum amount payable under an Incentive Bonus Award, which criteria may be based on financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. The Committee may specify the percentage of the target Incentive Bonus that is
intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the performance criteria for any portion of an Incentive Bonus that is intended by
the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria (as defined in Section 11.2 hereof) selected by the
Committee and specified at the time the Incentive Bonus Award is granted. The Committee shall certify the extent to which any Qualifying Performance Criteria has been satisfied and the amount payable as a result thereof, prior to payment of any
Incentive Bonus that is intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m). 
 8.3 Timing and Form of Payment. The Committee shall determine the timing of payment of any Incentive Bonus. The Committee may provide for or, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may
specify, may permit a Participant to elect for the payment of any Incentive Bonus to be deferred to a specified date or event. The Committee may provide for a Participant to have the option for his or her Incentive Bonus, or such portion thereof as
the Committee may specify, to be paid in whole or in part in Shares or Stock Units. 

 8.4 Discretionary Adjustments. Notwithstanding satisfaction of any performance goals,
the amount paid under an Incentive Bonus Award on account of either financial performance or personal performance evaluations may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall
determine. 
 SECTION 9. PERFORMANCE STOCK AND PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS 
 Performance Stock and Performance Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time prior to the termination of the Plan to Participants as
determined by the Committee. 
 9.1 Performance Stock Award. Each Performance Stock and Performance Stock Unit Award shall
contain provisions regarding (a) the number of Shares subject to such Award or a formula for determining such, (b) the performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria which shall determine the number of Shares granted,
issued, retainable and/or vested, (c) the period as to which performance shall be measured for determining achievement of performance, provided that such period shall be no shorter than twelve months, (d) forfeiture provisions, and
(e) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined from time to time by the Committee. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, each Performance Stock Unit will be equal to one Share and
will entitle a Participant to either the issuance of Shares or payment of an amount of cash determined with reference to the value of Shares. 
 9.2 Performance Criteria. The grant, issuance, retention and/or vesting of each Performance Stock and Performance Stock Unit Award shall be subject to such performance criteria and level of achievement versus these criteria
as the Committee shall determine, which criteria may be based on financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the performance criteria for any Performance Stock and Performance Stock
Unit Award that is intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m) shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Committee
and specified at the time the Award is granted. 
 9.3 Timing and Form of Payment. The Committee shall determine the timing
of payment of any Performance Stock and Performance Stock Unit Award. The Committee may provide for or, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may specify, may permit a Participant to elect for the payment of any Performance Stock and
Performance Stock Unit Award to be deferred to a specified date or event. 
 9.4 Discretionary Adjustments. Notwithstanding
satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares granted, issued, retainable and/or vested under a Performance Stock Award on account of either financial performance or personal performance evaluations may be reduced by the Committee on
the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. 
 SECTION 10. RESTRICTED STOCK

 Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time prior to the termination of the Plan to
Participants as determined by the Committee. 
 10.1 Restricted Stock Award. Each Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit
Award shall contain provisions regarding (a) the number of Shares subject to such Award or a formula for determining such, (b) the length of the period over which the Award shall vest or may ratably vest, provided that such period shall be
no shorter than thirty-six months, other than for reasons set forth in Section 11.7 and Section 13, (c) forfeiture provisions, and (d) such further terms and conditions, in each case not inconsistent with the Plan as may be
determined from time to time by the Committee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the limitation set forth in clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall not with respect to up to an aggregate of 5% of the Shares authorized for
issuance under the Plan, which may be granted (or regranted upon forfeiture) as Restricted Stock and/or Restricted Stock Unit Awards without regard to such minimum vesting requirements. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, each Restricted
Stock Unit will be equal to one Share and will entitle a Participant to either the issuance of Shares or payment of an amount of cash determined with reference to the value of Shares. 

 10.2 Timing and Form of Payment. The Committee shall determine the timing of payment of
any Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award. The Committee may provide for or, subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may specify, may permit a Participant to elect for the payment of any Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock
Unit Award to be deferred to a specified date or event. 
 10.3 Discretionary Adjustments. The number of Shares granted,
issued, retainable and/or vested under a Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Award may be reduced by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. 
 SECTION 11. OTHER PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 
 11.1 Transferability. Unless the agreement evidencing an Award (or an amendment thereto authorized by the Committee) expressly states that the Award is transferable as provided hereunder, no Award granted under the Plan,
nor any interest in such Award, may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred in any manner prior to the vesting or lapse of any and all restrictions applicable thereto, other than by will or the laws of
descent and distribution. The Committee may in its sole discretion grant an Award or amend an outstanding Award to provide that the Award is transferable or assignable to a member or members of the Employee’s “immediate family,” as
such term is defined under Exchange Act Rule 16a-1(e), or to a trust for the benefit solely of a member or members of the Employee’s immediate family, or to a partnership or other entity whose only owners are members of the Employee’s
family, provided that (i) no consideration is given in connection with the transfer of such Award, and (2) following any such transfer or assignment the Award will remain subject to substantially the same terms applicable to the Award
while held by the Employee, as modified as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine appropriate, and the Participant shall execute an agreement agreeing to be bound by such terms. 
 11.2 Qualifying Performance Criteria.  
 (a) The Committee may establish performance criteria and level of achievement versus such criteria that shall determine the number of Shares to be granted, retained, vested, issued or issuable under or in
settlement of or the amount payable pursuant to an Award, which criteria may be based on Qualifying Performance Criteria or other standards of financial performance and/or personal performance evaluations. In addition, the Committee may specify that
an Award or a portion of an Award is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, provided that the performance criteria for such Award or portion of an Award that is
intended by the Committee to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code shall be a measure based on one or more Qualifying Performance Criteria selected by the Committee and
specified at the time the Award is granted. The Committee shall certify the extent to which any Qualifying Performance Criteria has been satisfied and the amount payable as a result thereof, prior to payment, settlement or vesting of any Award that
is intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding satisfaction of any performance goals, the number of Shares issued under or the amount paid under an award
may, to the extent specified in the Award Agreement, be reduced, but not increased, by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine. 
 (b) For purposes of this Plan, the term “Qualifying Performance Criteria” shall mean any one or more of the following
performance criteria, or derivations of such performance criteria, either individually, alternatively or in any combination, applied to either the Corporation as a whole or to a business unit or subsidiary, either individually, alternatively or in
any combination, and measured either annually (or over such shorter period) or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis or relative to a pre-established target, to previous years’ results or to a designated comparison group, in
each case as specified by the Committee in the Award: (a) cash flow (including operating cash flow, free cash flow, cash flow return on capital, or cash flow per share), (b) core cash earnings per share (including earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization), (c) return measures (including return on assets, capital, equity, or sales), (d) total shareholder return, (e) productivity ratios, (f) expense targets or ratios, (g) revenue,
(h) core cash income or net income, (i) core cash operating income or net operating income, (j) operating profit or net operating profit, (k) gross or operating margin, (l) return on operating revenue, (m) market share,
(n) loan volume, (o) overhead or other expense reduction, (p) charge-off levels, (q) deposit growth, (r) margins, (s) operating efficiency, (t) economic value added, (u) customer or employee satisfaction,
(v) debt 

 
reduction, (w) capital targets, (x) consummation of acquisitions, dispositions, projects or other specific events or transactions,
(y) liquidity, (z) capital adequacy, (aa) ratio of nonperforming to performing assets, (bb) ratio of common equity to total assets, or (cc) regulatory compliance metrics. To the extent consistent with Code Section 162(m), the
Committee may appropriately adjust any evaluation of performance under a Qualifying Performance Criteria to exclude any of the following events that occurs during a performance period: (i) asset write-downs, (ii) litigation or claim
judgments or settlements, (iii) the effect of changes in tax law, accounting principles or other laws or provisions affecting reported results, (iv) accruals for reorganization and restructuring programs, and (v) any extraordinary
non-recurring items as described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30 and/or in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Corporation’s annual report to
shareholders for the applicable year. 
 11.3 Dividends. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, no adjustment shall be
made in Shares issuable under Awards on account of cash dividends that may be paid or other rights that may be issued to the holders of Shares prior to their issuance under any Award. The Committee shall specify whether dividends or dividend
equivalent amounts shall be paid to any Participant with respect to the Shares subject to any Share Award that have not vested or been issued or that are subject to any restrictions or conditions on the record date for dividends. 
 11.4 Deferral of Gains. The Committee may, in an Award Agreement or otherwise, provide for the deferred delivery of Shares upon
settlement, payment, vesting or other events with respect to Share Awards. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event will any deferral of the delivery of Shares or any other payment with respect to any Award be allowed if the
Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the deferral would result in the imposition of the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code. 
 11.5 Award Agreements. The Committee shall, subject to applicable law, determine the date an Award is deemed to be granted, which for purposes of this Plan shall not be affected by the fact that an
Award is contingent on subsequent shareholder approval of the Plan. The Committee or, except to the extent prohibited under applicable law, its delegate(s) may establish the terms of agreements evidencing Awards under this Plan and may, but need
not, require as a condition to any such agreement’s effectiveness that such agreement be executed by the Participant and that such Participant agree to such further terms and conditions as specified in such agreement. The grant of an Award
under this Plan shall not confer any rights upon the Participant holding such Award other than such terms, and subject to such conditions, as are specified in this Plan as being applicable to such type of Award (or to all Awards) or as are expressly
set forth in the Award Agreement evidencing such Award. 
 11.6 Tandem Stock or Cash Rights. Either at the time an Award is
granted or by subsequent action, the Committee may, but need not, provide that an Award shall contain as a term thereof, a right, either in tandem with the other rights under the Award or as an alternative thereto, of the Participant to receive,
without payment to the Corporation, a number of Shares, cash or a combination thereof, the amount of which is determined by reference to the value of the Award. 
 11.7 Termination of Employment. At the time of the grant of an Award, the Committee may provide that upon an Award holder’s termination of employment on account of death, Disability or
Involuntary Termination, as those terms are defined herein, all unvested Awards held by the Award holder shall vest. “Disability” means total and permanent disability within the meaning of the Corporation’s long-term disability policy
applicable at the time to the Award holder, as may be amended from time to time. “Involuntary Termination” means termination of employment. 
 11.8 Misconduct. At the time of the grant of an Award, the Committee may provide that if the Award holder engages in Misconduct, as defined herein, the Award, whether vested or unvested, is forfeited.
Whether an Award holder has engaged in Misconduct will be determined by the Corporation’s senior human resources officer or his or her designee. Misconduct is defined as an act of embezzlement, fraud, dishonesty, nonpayment of any obligation
owed to the Corporation, breach of fiduciary duty or deliberate disregard of Corporation rules; an unauthorized disclosure of any Corporation trade secret or confidential information; any conduct constituting unfair competition; inducing any
customer of the Corporation to breach a contract with the Corporation or any principal for whom the Corporation acts as agent to terminate such agency relationship; or engaging in any other act or conduct proscribed by the senior human resources
officer as Misconduct. 

 11.9 Conditions and Restrictions Upon Securities Subject to Awards. The Committee may
provide that the Shares issued under an Award shall be subject to such further agreements, restrictions, conditions or limitations as the Committee in its discretion may specify prior to the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award,
including without limitation, conditions on vesting or transferability, forfeiture or repurchase provisions and method of payment for the Shares issued upon exercise, vesting or settlement of such Award (including the actual or constructive
surrender of Shares already owned by the Participant) or payment of taxes arising in connection with an Award. Without limiting the foregoing, such restrictions may address the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent
transfers by the Participant of any Shares issued under an Award, including without limitation (i) restrictions under an insider trading policy or pursuant to applicable law, (ii) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing
and manner of sales by Participant and holders of other Corporation equity compensation arrangements, (iii) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers and (iv) provisions requiring Shares
to be sold on the open market or to the Corporation in order to satisfy tax withholding or other obligations. 
 SECTION 12. CHANGES IN CAPITAL
STRUCTURE 
 If the outstanding securities of the class then subject to this Plan are increased, decreased or exchanged for or converted
into cash, property or a different number or kind of shares or securities, or if cash, property or shares or securities are distributed in respect of such outstanding securities, in either case as a result of a reorganization, merger, consolidation,
recapitalization, restructuring, reclassification, dividend (other than a regular, quarterly cash dividend) or other distribution, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or the like, or if substantially all of the property and assets of the
Corporation are sold, then, unless the terms of such transaction shall provide otherwise, the Committee shall make appropriate and proportionate adjustments in (i) the number and type of shares or other securities or cash or other property that
may be acquired pursuant to Awards theretofore granted under this Plan and the exercise or settlement price of such Awards, provided, however, that such adjustment shall be made in such a manner that will not affect the status of any Award intended
to qualify as an ISO under Code Section 422 or as “performance based compensation” under Code Section 162(m), and (ii) the maximum number and type of shares or other securities that may be issued pursuant to such Awards
thereafter granted under this Plan. 
 SECTION 13. CHANGE OF CONTROL 
 13.1 Effect of Change of Control. The Committee may through the terms of the Award or otherwise provide that any or all of the following
shall occur upon termination of the Employee’s employment within twenty-four (24) months following a Change of Control or a Change of Control Transaction: (a) in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the
Participant’s ability to exercise any portion of the Option not previously exercisable, (b) in the case of an Incentive Bonus, the right to receive a payment equal to the target amount payable or, if greater, a payment based on performance
through a date determined by the Committee prior to the Change of Control, and (c) in the case of Shares issued in payment of any Incentive Bonus, and/or in the case of Share Awards, the lapse and expiration on any conditions to the grant,
issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award. The Committee also may, through the terms of the Award or otherwise, provide for an absolute or conditional exercise, payment or lapse of
conditions or restrictions on an Award which shall only be effective if, upon the announcement of a Change of Control Transaction, no provision is made in such Change of Control Transaction for the exercise, payment or lapse of conditions or
restrictions on the Award, or other procedure whereby the Participant may realize the full benefit of the Award. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control or Change of Control Transaction in which the
acquiring or surviving company in the transaction does not assume or continue outstanding Awards upon the Change of Control or Change of Control Transaction, immediately prior to the Change of Control, all Awards that are not assumed or continued
shall be treated as follows effective immediately prior to the Change of Control or Change of Control Transaction, as applicable: (a) in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Participant shall have the ability to exercise such
Option or Stock Appreciation Right, including any portion of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right not previously exercisable, (b) in the case of an Incentive Bonus, the Participant shall have the right to receive a payment equal to the target
amount payable or, if greater, a payment based on performance through a date determined by the Committee prior to the Change of Control, and (c) in the case of Shares issued in payment of any Incentive Bonus, and/or in the case of Share Awards,
the lapse and expiration on any conditions to the grant, issuance, retention, vesting or transferability of, or any other restrictions applicable to, such Award. 

 13.2 Definitions. Unless the Committee or the Board shall provide otherwise,
“Change of Control” shall mean an occurrence of any of the following events: (a) an acquisition (other than directly from the Corporation) of any voting securities of the Corporation (the “Voting Securities”) by any
“person or group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) other than an employee benefit plan of the Corporation, immediately after which such Person has “Beneficial Ownership” (within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding Voting Securities; or (b) the consummation of (i) a merger, consolidation or
reorganization involving the Corporation, unless the Corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or reorganization (the “Surviving Corporation”) shall adopt or assume this Plan and a Participant’s Awards under the Plan and
either (A) the shareholders of the Corporation immediately before such merger, consolidation or reorganization own, directly or indirectly immediately following such merger, consolidation or reorganization, at least seventy-five percent
(75%) of the combined voting power of the Surviving Corporation in substantially the same proportion as their ownership immediately before such merger, consolidation or reorganization, or (B) at least a majority of the members of the Board
of Directors of the Surviving Corporation were directors of the Corporation immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for such merger, consolidation or reorganization, or (ii) a complete liquidation or dissolution of the
Corporation. “Change of Control Transaction” shall mean the consummation of any tender offer, offer, exchange offer, solicitation, merger, consolidation, reorganization or other transaction which result in a Change of Control. 

SECTION 14. TAXES 
 14.1 Withholding Requirements. The Committee may make such provisions or impose such conditions as it may deem appropriate for the withholding or payment by the Employee or Participant, as appropriate, of any taxes which it
determines are required in connection with any Awards granted under this Plan, and a Participant’s rights in any Award are subject to satisfaction of such conditions. 
 14.2 Payment of Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding the terms of Section 14.1 hereof, the Committee may provide in the agreement
evidencing an Award or otherwise that all or any portion of the taxes required to be withheld by the Corporation or, if permitted by the Committee, desired to be paid by the Participant, in connection with the exercise of a Non-qualified Option or
the exercise, vesting, settlement or transfer of any other Award shall be paid or, at the election of the Participant, may be paid by the Corporation withholding Shares otherwise issuable or subject to such Award, or by the Participant delivering
previously owned Shares, in each case having a fair market value equal to the amount required or elected to be withheld or paid. Any such elections are subject to such conditions or procedures as may be established by the Committee and may be
subject to disapproval by the Committee. 
 SECTION 15. AMENDMENTS OR TERMINATION 
 The Board may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan or any agreement evidencing an Award made under the Plan, but no such amendment shall, without the
approval of the shareholders of the Corporation: 
 (a) materially increase the number of shares that may be issued under
the Plan; 
 (b) permit granting of stock options at less than fair market value; 
 (c) reduce or adjust downward the exercise price of outstanding options, whether through amendment, cancellation or replacement
grants, or any other means; 
 (d) impair the rights of any award holder without his or her consent; 
 (e) change the class of individuals eligible for the Plan 
 (f) extend the term of the Plan; and 
 (g) otherwise amend the Plan in any manner if not permitted to do so by law or the National Exchange listing requirements without
shareholder approval. 

 SECTION 16. COMPLIANCE WITH OTHER LAWS AND REGULATIONS 
 The Plan, the grant and exercise of Awards thereunder, and the obligation of the Corporation to sell, issue or deliver Shares under such Awards, shall be
subject to all applicable federal, state and foreign laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may be required. The Corporation shall not be required to register in a Participant’s name or
deliver any Shares prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of such Shares under any federal, state or foreign law or any ruling or regulation of any government body which the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine to
be necessary or advisable. This Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded arrangement for a select group of management or other key employees. 
 No Option shall be exercisable unless a registration statement with respect to the Option is effective or the Corporation has determined that such registration is unnecessary. Unless the Awards and Shares covered by this Plan have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Corporation has determined that such registration is unnecessary, each person receiving an Award and/or Shares pursuant to any Award may be required by the Corporation to give a
representation in writing that such person is acquiring such Shares for his or her own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any part thereof. 
 SECTION 17. OPTION GRANTS BY SUBSIDIARIES 
 In the case of a grant of an option to any eligible Employee employed by a subsidiary, such grant may, if the Committee so directs, be implemented by the Corporation issuing any subject shares to the subsidiary, for such lawful
consideration as the Committee may determine, upon the condition or understanding that the subsidiary will transfer the shares to the option holder in accordance with the terms of the option specified by the Committee pursuant to the provisions of
the Plan. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such option may be issued by and in the name of the subsidiary and shall be deemed granted on such date as the Committee shall determine. 
 SECTION 18. NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT 
 Nothing
in this Plan or as a result of any Award granted pursuant to this Plan shall confer on any individual any right to continue in the employ of the Corporation or interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation to terminate an individual’s
employment at any time. The Award agreements may contain such provisions as the Committee may approve with reference to the effect of approved leaves of absence. 
 SECTION 19. EFFECTIVENESS AND EXPIRATION OF PLAN 
 The Plan was adopted by the Board on March 26, 2009, and
will become effective upon approval of the Plan by the Corporation’s shareholders (the date of such approval the “Effective Date”). All Awards granted under this Plan are subject to, and may not be exercised before, the approval of
the Plan by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Corporation present, or represented by proxy, and entitled to vote, at a meeting of the Corporation’s shareholders or by written consent in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware; provided that if such approval by the shareholders of the Company does not occur within one year of the approval of the Plan by the Board, all Awards previously granted under this Plan shall be
void. The Plan shall remain available for the grant of Awards until the third (3rd) anniversary of the date that the Plan is approved by the Corporation’s shareholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Plan may be terminated at such
earlier time as the Board may determine. Termination of the Plan will not affect the rights and obligations of the Participants and the Corporation arising under Awards theretofore granted and then in effect. 
 SECTION 20. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN 
 Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board nor the submission of the Plan to the shareholders of the Corporation for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board or the Committee to adopt such other
incentive arrangements as it or they may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of restricted stock or stock options otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in
specific cases. 
 SECTION 21. GOVERNING LAW 
 This Plan and any agreements hereunder shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal law. The Committee may provide that any dispute as to any Award
shall be presented and determined in such forum as the Committee may specify, including through binding arbitration. Any reference in this Plan or in the agreement evidencing any Award to a provision of law or to a rule or regulation shall be deemed
to include any successor law, rule or regulation of similar effect or applicability.
