Section 162(m) of the Code and consist of one or more or any combination of the factors set forth in Section 4.2 above, as applied to the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. The Company Performance Goals may be

statements or receipt of the Independent Auditor’s Report on the Company’s financial statements for a Performance Period consisting of one or more Fiscal Year’s covered by the financial statements or other accounting finalizing of the
Company’s financial results for any Performance Period and receipt of the report of the Company and Business Unit senior management, the Committee shall certify in writing and, where applicable, in compliance with the requirements of Treasury
Regulation 1.162-27 (and successor regulations thereto) in the case of any Award intended to qualify under Section 162(m) of the Code: (i) the extent to which the Company achieved its Company Performance Goals for the Performance Period,
(ii) the extent to which each Business Unit achieved its Business Unit Performance Goals for the Performance Period, (iii) the calculation of the Participants’ Incentive Compensation, and (iv) the determination by the Committee
of the amount of Incentive Compensation, if any, to be paid to each Participant for the Performance Period. In determining whether Performance Goals have been achieved and Incentive Compensation is payable for a given Performance Period, generally
accepted accounting principles to the extent applicable to the Performance Goal shall be applied on a basis consistent with prior periods, and such determinations shall be based on the calculations made by the Company and binding on each
Participant. After the certification described in this Section the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, decrease the Incentive Compensation to be paid to one or more Participants for such Performance Period. 

4.5 Earned Award Based on Level of Achievement. If Threshold Achievement is attained with respect to a Performance Goal, then the
Incentive Compensation that may be paid to such Participant with respect to such Performance Goal shall be based on a specified percentage of Base Pay and the Committee’s predetermined schedule (which may allow for interpolation between
achievement levels) setting forth the earned award as a percentage of Base Pay; provided that, as described in Section 4.4, the Committee may decrease (but never increase) the Incentive Compensation to be paid to one or more Participants
for such Performance Period. 
 4.6 Limitation on Total Incentive Compensation. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary contained herein, the maximum Incentive Compensation payable to any Covered Employee with respect to any single Award shall not exceed $1,750,000. 

Article V 

Payment of Incentive Compensation 

5.1 Form and Time of Payment. Subject to the provisions of Sections 5.2 and 5.3 below and except
as otherwise provided herein, a Participant’s Incentive Compensation for each Performance Period shall be paid as soon as practicable after the results for such Performance Period have been finalized, but in no event later than the date that is
2  1/2 months immediately following the close of
Fiscal Year in which such Performance Period ended. The payment shall be in the form of a cash lump sum. 
  

 6 

 5.2 Forfeiture Upon Termination Prior to Date of Payment. If a Participant’s
employment with the Company and all of its Subsidiaries is terminated voluntarily by the Participant or is terminated by his or her employer for any reason during a Performance Period or after a Performance Period but prior to the date of actual
payment in accordance with Section 5.1 above, then such Participant will immediately forfeit any right to receive any Incentive Compensation hereunder for such Performance Period. 

5.3 Pro Rata Payment for New Hires; Promotions. Any individual who is newly-hired or becomes an Eligible Employee during a
Performance Period and who is selected by the Committee to participate in the Plan shall be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of the Incentive Compensation to which he or she could have been entitled if he or she had been employed for the full
Performance Period, based on the number of full months during the Performance Period during which he or she is a Participant in the Plan and calculated on the basis of his or her Base Pay received for the Performance Period. Such Incentive
Compensation shall be paid at the time and in the manner set forth in Section 5.1 hereof. 
 In the case of a
promotion or transfer from a position where an individual was already a Participant for Incentive Compensation for a Performance Period to a position where the Participant is eligible for a higher or lower maximum amount of Incentive Compensation,
the Participant shall complete his or her participation in the prior position until the end of the complete month containing his or her date of promotion or transfer, prior to participating in the Performance Period for the transferred or promoted
position. The overall Incentive Compensation will be pro rated for both Performance Periods. In calculating the pro rated amount, (i) the prior Performance Period will be prorated using the Participant’s Base Pay immediately prior to the
date of promotion or transfer, and (ii) the subsequent Performance Period will be pro rated using the Participant’s Base Pay at the end of the Performance Period. If a Participant is transferred to a lateral position (i.e., the same
job grade or level), then the Incentive Compensation will not be pro rated based on the lateral change in position. 

Participants who are eligible for participation at the beginning of a Performance Period, but who subsequently become ineligible to
participate during the Performance Period will receive a pro rated portion of the Incentive Compensation based on the number of full months completed during such Performance Period. 

Article VI 

Miscellaneous Provisions 

6.1 Non-Assignability. A Participant may not alienate, assign, pledge, encumber, transfer, sell or otherwise dispose of any rights
or benefits awarded hereunder prior to the actual receipt thereof; and any attempt to alienate, assign, pledge, sell, transfer or assign prior to such receipt, or any levy, attachment, execution or similar process upon any such rights or benefits
shall be null and void. 
 6.2 No Right To Continue In Employment. Nothing in the Plan confers upon any Employee the
right to continue in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary, or interferes with or restricts in any way the right of the Company and its Subsidiaries to discharge any Employee at any time (subject to any contract rights of such Employee).

 6.3 Indemnification Of Committee. No member of the Committee nor any officer or
employee of the Company acting with or on behalf of the Committee, shall be personally liable for any action, determination, or interpretation taken or made in good faith with respect to the Plan, and all members of the Committee, and each officer
or Employee of the Company acting with it or on its behalf shall, to the extent permitted by law, be fully indemnified and protected by the Company with respect to any such action, determination or interpretation. 

6.4 No Plan Funding. The Plan shall at all times be entirely unfunded, and no provision shall at any time be made with respect to
segregating assets of the Company for payment of any amounts hereunder. No Participant, beneficiary, or other person shall have any interest in any particular assets of the Company by reason of the right to receive Incentive Compensation under the
Plan. Participants and beneficiaries shall have only the rights of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.

Participants, and their heirs, assigns, and personal representatives. 
 6.7 Construction of Plan. The captions used in
this Plan are for convenience only and shall not be construed in interpreting the Plan. Whenever the context so requires, the masculine shall include the feminine and neuter, and the singular shall also include the plural, and conversely.

 6.8 Integrated Plan. This Plan constitutes the final and complete expression of agreement with respect to the subject
matter hereof. 
 6.9 Tax Requirements. The Company (and, where applicable, its Subsidiaries) shall have the power and
the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to any payment of any Incentive Compensation to a Participant.

 6.10 Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation. In the event of a merger, consolidation, sale of assets, reorganization
or other business combination in which the Company is not the surviving or continuing corporation, or pursuant to which shares of the Company’s common stock would be converted into cash, securities or other property (other than a merger of the
Company in which the holders of the Company’s Common Stock immediately prior to the merger have the same proportionate ownership of Common Stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), the Committee shall adjust the
Performance Goals and achievement levels so that the Incentive Compensation amounts to which a Participant is entitled are not adversely affected by such events. 

Article VII 

Amendment or Discontinuance 

The Committee may at any time and from time to time, without the consent of the Participants, alter, amend, revise, suspend, or
discontinue the Plan in whole or in part; provided that any amendment that modifies any preestablished Performance Goal for a Participant who is a Covered Employee (or his successor(s), as may be applicable) under this Plan with respect to any
particular Performance Period may only be effected on or prior to that date which is ninety (90) days following the commencement of such Performance Period (and in the case of a Performance Period less than a Fiscal Year, such determination
shall be made no later than the date 25% of the Performance Period has elapsed). In addition, the Board shall have the power to discontinue the Plan in whole or in part and amend the Plan in any manner advisable in order for Incentive Compensation
granted under the Plan to qualify as “performance-based” compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code (including amendments as a result of changes to Section 162(m) or the regulations thereunder to permit greater flexibility
with respect to Incentive Compensation granted under the Plan).
