 2 

 
administration of the Plan. Any actions of the Committee or the Administrator with respect to the Plan shall be conclusive and binding upon all persons
interested in the Plan, except that any action of the Administrator will not be binding on the Committee. The Committee and Administrator may each appoint agents and delegate thereto powers and duties under the Plan, except as otherwise limited by
the Plan. 
 (b) Administrator. The Deferred Stock Compensation Committee shall consist of such number of members as shall be
determined by the Committee, each of whom shall be appointed by, shall remain in office at the will of, and may be removed, with or without cause, by the Committee. Any member of the Deferred Stock Compensation Committee may resign at any time. No
member of the Deferred Stock Compensation Committee shall be entitled to act on or decide any matter relating solely to himself or herself or any of his or her rights or benefits under the Plan. The members of the Deferred Stock Compensation

member of the Committee or the Administrator, nor any person to whom ministerial duties have been delegated, shall be liable to any person for any action taken or omitted in connection with interpretation and administration of the Plan. 

4. Participation. The administrator will notify each person of his or her participation or eligibility to participate in the Plan not later
than 15 days (or such lesser period as may be practicable in the circumstances) prior to any deadline for filing an election form. 
 5.
Deferrals. To the extent authorized by the Committee, a Participant may elect to defer any award or other compensation which is in the form of units denominated in Stock to be received from the Company or a subsidiary, including shares issuable
in connection with annual incentive awards or long term awards. In addition to any terms and conditions of deferral set forth under plans, programs or arrangements from which receipt of the Stock-denominated award or other compensation is deferred,
the Committee may impose limitations on the amounts permitted to be deferred and other terms and conditions of deferrals under the Plan. Any such limitations, and other terms and conditions of deferral, shall be set forth in the rules relating to
the Plan or election forms, other forms, or instructions published by the Committee and/or the Administrator.

an election form, properly completed, is received by the Company, the elections of the Participant shall be irrevocable: provided however, that subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the Committee and/or Administrator
may, in its discretion, permit a Participant to elect a further deferral of amounts credited to a Deferral Account by filing a later election form. 
  

 3 

 (b) Date of Election. An election to defer Stock-denominated awards or other compensation
hereunder must be received by the Administrator prior to the date specified by the Administrator. Under no circumstances may a Participant defer Stock-denominated awards or other compensation to which the Participant has attained, at the time of
deferral, a legally enforceable right to current receipt of such Stock-denominated awards or other compensation. 
 (c) Taxes. The
Corporation, and/or any of its subsidiaries, is authorized to withhold any and all amounts necessary to satisfy Social Security, Medicare, and all other payroll taxes (other than Federal, state or local income tax withholding) imposed on the wages
of such Participant from the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company may make provisions as it deems appropriate to withhold such payroll taxes, including withholding cash compensation, in connection with a Participant’s deferral or take such
other action which in the opinion of the Company is necessary to satisfy all its obligations. The Company may require the Participant to satisfy any relevant tax requirement before authorizing the deferral of any award or other compensation in the
form of Stock or units denominated in Stock, as described in Section 5. 
 6. Deferral Accounts 
 (a) Establishment; Crediting of Amounts Deferred. One or more Deferral Accounts will be established for each Participant, as determined by the
Administrator. The amount of Stock-denominated awards or other compensation deferred with respect to each Deferral Account will be credited to such Account as of the date on which such amounts would have been paid to the Participant but for the
Participant’s election to defer receipt hereunder. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, shares will be credited to the Participant’s Deferral Account as units of Deferred Stock (as opposed to cash amounts valued by reference
to the market price of Stock). With respect to any fractional shares of Stock-denominated awards, the Administrator shall either pay such fractional shares to the Participant in cash, credit the Deferral Account with cash in lieu of depositing
fractional shares into the Deferral Account, or credit the Deferral Account with a fraction of a share calculated to at least three decimal places, all as specified at the time of the original deferral. 
 (b) Deferred Stock As Sole Investment Vehicle. Amounts credited as Deferred Stock to a Participant’s Deferral Account may not be reallocated
or deemed reinvested in any other investment vehicle, but shall remain as Deferred Stock until such time as the Deferral Account is settled in accordance with Section 7. 
 (c) Dividend Equivalents. Except as provided in Section 6(d), dividend equivalents will be credited on Deferred Stock credited to a
Participant’s Deferral Account as follows: 
 (i) Cash and Non-Stock Dividends. If the Company declares and pays a
dividend on Stock in the form of cash or property other than shares of Stock, then a number of additional shares of Deferred Stock shall be credited to a Participant’s Deferral Account as of the payment date for such dividend equal to
(A) the number of shares of Deferred Stock credited to the Deferral Account as of the record date for such dividend, multiplied by (B) the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property other than shares actually paid as a
dividend on each share at such payment date, divided by (C) the fair market value of a share of Stock at such payment date. 
 (ii) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company declares and pays a dividend on Stock in the form of additional shares of Stock, or there occurs a forward split of 

  

 4 

 
Stock, then a number of additional shares of Deferred Stock shall be credited to the Participant’s Deferral Account as of the payment date for such
dividend or forward Stock split equal to (A) the number of shares of Deferred Stock credited to the Deferral Account as of the record date for such dividend or split, multiplied by (B) the number of additional shares actually paid as a
dividend or issued in such split in respect of each share of Stock. 
 (d) Trusts. The Committee may, in its discretion,
establish one or more Trusts (including sub-accounts under such Trusts), and deposit therein shares of Stock equal in number to the number of shares of Deferred Stock then credited to a Participant’s Deferral Account (or a specified
subaccount). In such case, the provisions of Section 6(c) notwithstanding, the dividend equivalents payable on the Participant’s Deferred Stock shall be equal to the actual dividends paid on the shares deposited in such Trust (which
dividends shall be reinvested by the Trustee in additional shares of Stock), and shares may be delivered in settlement of the Participant’s Deferred Stock from the assets in such Trusts. The Participant’s rights with respect to directing
the voting of shares held in such Trust or otherwise relating to such shares shall be determined by the Administrator in its discretion. 
 7. Settlement of Deferral Accounts. 
 (a) Form of Payment. The Company shall settle a Participant’s Deferral
Account, and discharge all of its obligations to pay deferred compensation under the Plan with respect to such Deferral Account, by delivery of shares of Stock, including shares of Stock delivered out of the assets of the Trust. 
 (b) Forfeited Stock. To the extent that Stock (i) is deposited in a Trust pursuant to Section 6 in connection with a deferral of a
Stock-denominated award under another plan, program, employment agreement or other arrangement and (ii) is forfeited pursuant to the terms of such plan, program, agreement or arrangement, the Participant shall not be entitled to the value of
such Stock and other property related thereto (including without limitation, dividends thereon) or other award or amount, or proceeds thereof. Any Stock or Stock-denominated awards (and proceeds thereof) forfeited shall be returned to the Company.

 (c) Timing of Payments. Payments in settlement of a Deferral Account shall be made at the date or dates (including upon the
occurrence of specified events), and in such number of installments, as may be directed by the Participant in his or her election relating to such Deferral Account, or earlier in the following circumstances: 
 (i) In the event of termination of employment for reasons other than Retirement or Disability, a single lump sum payment in settlement of
any Deferral Account (including a Deferral Account with respect to which one or more installment payments have previously been made) shall be made in the month following such termination; or 
 (ii) In the event of a Change in Control, payments in settlement of any Deferral Account (including a Deferral Account with respect to
which one or more installment payments have previously been made) shall be made within fifteen (15) business days following such Change in Control. 
  

 5 

 (d) Financial Emergency and Other Payments. Other provisions of the Plan (except Section 8)
notwithstanding, if, upon the written application of a Participant, the Committee determines that the Participant has a Unforeseeable Emergency, as defined in the Universal 409A Definition Document, the Committee may direct the payment to the
Participant of all or a portion of the balance of a Deferral Account, but only to the extent necessary to meet such emergency, including federal, state and local taxes with respect to such payment. 
 8. Provisions Relating to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. 
 With respect to a Participant who is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, the Committee and Administrator shall implement transactions under the Plan and administer the
Plan in a manner that will ensure that each transaction by such a Participant is exempt from or otherwise not subject to liability under Rule 16b-3, except that such a Participant may be permitted to engage in a non-exempt transaction under the Plan
if written notice is given to the Participant regarding the non-exempt nature of such transaction. 
 9. Statements. The
Administrator will furnish statements to each Participant reflecting the amount credited to a Participant’s Deferral Accounts and transactions therein not less frequently than once each calendar year. 
 10. Sources of Stock: Limitation on Amount of Stock-Denominated Deferrals. If shares of Stock are deposited under the Plan in a
Trust pursuant to Section 6 in connection with a deferral of a Stock-denominated award under another plan, program, employment agreement or other arrangement that provides for the issuance of shares, the shares so deposited shall be deemed to
have originated, and shall be counted against the number of shares reserved, under such other plan, program or arrangement. Shares of Stock actually delivered in settlement of Deferral Accounts shall be originally issued shares or treasury shares,
in the discretion of the Committee. 
 11. Amendment/Termination. The Committee may, with prospective or retroactive effect, amend,
alter, suspend, discontinue the Plan at any time without the consent of Participants, stockholders, or any other person; provided, however, that, without the consent of a Participant, no such action shall materially and adversely affect the
rights of such Participant with respect to any rights to payment of amounts credited to such Participant’s Deferral Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent consistent with the rules relating to plan terminations and liquidations
in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) or otherwise consistent with Code Section 409A, the Committee may terminate the Plan at any time and in that event the Committee may provide that, without the prior written consent of Participants,
the Participants’ Deferral Account shall be distributed in a single payment in shares upon termination of the Plan. 
 12. General
Provisions. 
 (a) Limits on Transfer of Awards. Other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, no right, title, or
interest of any kind in the Plan shall be transferable or assignable by a Participant or his or her Beneficiary or be subject to alienation, anticipation, encumbrance, garnishment, attachment, levy, execution or other legal or equitable process, nor
subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities or engagements, or torts of any Participant or his or her Beneficiary. Any attempt to alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, garnish, attach or take any action subject to legal or equitable process or
encumber or dispose of any interest in the Plan shall be void. 
  

 6 

 (b) Receipt and Release. Payments (in any form) to any Participant or Beneficiary in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims for the awards or other compensation deferred and relating to the Deferral Account to which the payments relate against the Company or any subsidiary
thereof, the Committee, or the Administrator. In the case of any payment under the Plan of less than all amounts then credited to an account in the form of Stock, the amounts paid shall be deemed to relate to the Stock credited to the account at the
earliest time. 
 (c) Unfunded Status of Awards: Creation of Trusts. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan
for deferred compensation and Participants shall rely solely on the unsecured promise of the Company for payment hereunder. With respect to any payment not yet made to a Participant under the Plan, nothing contained in the Plan shall give a
Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company; provided, however, that the Committee may authorize the creation of Trusts, including but not limited to the Trusts referred to in
Section 6 hereof, or make other arrangements to meet the Company’s obligations under the Plan, which Trusts or other arrangements shall be consistent with the “unfunded’ status of the Plan unless the Committee otherwise
determines with the consent of each affected Participant. 
 (d) Compliance. 
 (i) The Company shall impose such restrictions on Stock delivered to a Participant hereunder and any other interest constituting a
security as it may deem advisable in order to comply with the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Stock is then listed or
quoted, any applicable state securities laws, any provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or any other law, regulation, or binding contract to which the Company is a party. 
 (ii) With respect to 409A Amounts, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the provisions
hereof shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan would otherwise frustrate or conflict with
this intent, the provision will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. With respect to a Participant who is a Specified Employee as of the date of his Termination of Employment for reasons other than death, payment of any
portion of his 409A Amount on account of his Termination of Employment will be delayed until the first day of the seventh month following the date such Termination of Employment occurs. 
 (e) Other Participant Rights. No Participant shall have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company under the Plan, including
as a result of the crediting of Stock-denominated units or other amounts to a Deferral Account, or the creation of any Trust and deposit of such Stock therein, except at such time as Stock may be actually delivered in settlement of a Deferral
Account. No provision of the Plan or transaction hereunder shall confer upon any Participant any right to be employed by the Company or a subsidiary thereof, or to interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a subsidiary to increase or
decrease the 

  

 7 

 
amount of compensation payable to such Participant. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 12(a) hereof, the Plan shall inure to the benefit
of, and be binding upon, the parties hereto and their successors and assigns. 
 (f) Tax Withholding. The Company and any subsidiary
shall have the right to deduct from amounts otherwise payable in settlement of a Deferral Account any sums that federal, state, local or foreign tax law requires to be withheld with respect to such payment. Shares may be withheld to satisfy such
obligations in any case where taxation would be imposed upon the delivery of shares, except that shares issued or delivered under any plan, program, employment agreement or other arrangement may be withheld only in accordance with the terms of such
