Management Incentive Compensation Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and its
shareholders by providing performance-based incentives to the Company’s executive officers.

SECTION 2. EFFECTIVE DATE: The effective date of this Plan is January 1, 2010. This Plan shall
remain in effect until termination of this Plan pursuant to Section 12 below.

SECTION 3. DEFINITIONS: As used in this Plan, unless the context otherwise requires, each of the
following terms shall have the meaning set forth below.

	 	(a)	 	“Affiliated Employer” means any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other

Section 414(b) of the Code (employees of controlled group of corporations) or Section 414(c) of the
Code (employees of partnerships or limited liability companies under common control). For purposes
of determining a controlled group of corporations under Section 414(b), the language “at least 50
percent” shall be used instead of “at least 80 percent” each place it appears in Section
1563(a)(1), (2), and (3) of the Code. For purposes of determining trades or businesses that are
under common control for purposes of Section 414(c) of the Code, “at least 50 percent” shall be
used instead of “at least 80 percent” each place it appears in Treas. Reg. Sect. 1.414(c)-2. An
entity shall not be considered an “Affiliated Employer” for any period of time prior to satisfying
the controlled group or common control tests described above.
	 
	 	(b)	 	“Award” shall mean, for any Performance Period, an award providing a Covered Executive the
opportunity to earn incentive compensation hereunder subject to the terms and conditions of this
Plan.

the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of the 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any comparable successor provisions (a “Person”) of
beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act)
of any portion of the Company’s then
outstanding shares of common stock or other voting securities (or securities
convertible into voting securities) entitled to vote generally in the election of the
Board after which Liberty Mutual Holding Company Inc., (together with any

1

 

	 	 	 	employee benefit plan or arrangement (or any trust forming a part thereof) maintained
by Liberty Mutual Holding Company Inc., Liberty Mutual Group Inc., Liberty Mutual
Insurance Company, affiliates controlled by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, the
Company, or an Affiliated Employer) does not, immediately thereafter, own directly or
indirectly through one or more subsidiaries at least fifty-one percent (51%) (on a
fully distributed and diluted basis) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then
outstanding securities entitled to vote (and securities convertible into securities
entitled to vote) generally in the election of the Board; or

	 	(ii)	 	The consummation of a merger (including, without limitation, a share exchange,
consolidation, reorganization or similar business combination under applicable law) of the
Company with any other business entity unless the Persons who were holders of the
Company’s Class B common stock immediately prior to the merger beneficially own
immediately thereafter, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the
combined voting power of the issued and outstanding securities entitled to vote in the
election of the board of directors of the successor or survivor entity; or
	 
	 	(iii)	 	The consummation of the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially
all of the Company’s assets in one or more transactions to an unrelated entity.

	 	 	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be considered to have occurred
because fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then
outstanding securities entitled to vote (and securities convertible into securities entitled to
vote) are beneficially owned by a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under one or
more employee benefit plans or arrangements (or any trust forming a part thereof) maintained by
Liberty Mutual Holding Company Inc., Liberty Mutual Group Inc., Liberty Mutual Insurance
Company, affiliates controlled by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, the Company, or an
Affiliated Employer.
	 
	 	(e)	 	“Code” shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, and any
references to a particular section of the Code shall be deemed to include any successor
provision thereto.
	 
	 	(f)	 	“Committee” shall mean the Compensation Committee of the Board or any subcommittee thereof.
	 
	 	(g)	 	“Company” shall mean Liberty Mutual Agency Corporation.
	 
	 	(h)	 	“Covered Executive” shall mean the Company’s “executive officers” as defined under Rule
3b-7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as

2

 

	 	(i)	 	“Disability” shall mean a physical or mental condition of an apparently permanent nature
which prevents a Participant from performing the principal duties of the Participant’s regular
occupation with the Company or an Affiliated Employer, as determined to the sole satisfaction
of the Committee.
	 
	 	(j)	 	“Maximum Amount” for an Award shall mean $5,000,000 or such lower amount designated by the
Committee within the time period permitted under Section 6(a) or, solely with respect to the
2010 Performance Period, the amount set forth in Appendix A hereto.
	 
	 	(k)	 	“Net Earnings” shall mean, for each Performance Period, the Company’s net earnings from
continuing operations as reported in the Company’s financial statements, including accompanying
footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Net Earnings
will be determined by:

	 	(i)	 	Excluding one or more of the following items if doing so would result in an increase
to Net Earnings for the then current Performance Period — (1) extraordinary items (as
determined by the Company’s independent auditors in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles); (2) restructuring and/or other nonrecurring charges (as reported
in the Company’s financial statements for the Performance Period); (3) losses from
catastrophes (as designated by the Insurance Service Office’s Property Claims Service
Group, the Lloyd’s Claim Office or comparable report or organization generally recognized
by the insurance industry) in the Company’s “ongoing” businesses (to the extent reported
in the Company financial statements for the Performance Period); (4) exchange rate
effects, as applicable, for non-U.S. dollar denominated operating earnings; (5) the
effects of any statutory adjustments to corporate tax rates; and (6) the impact of
discontinued operations, and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	Not adjusting for changes in accounting if doing so would increase Net Earnings for
the then current Performance Period.

	 	(l)	 	“Participant” shall mean (i) with respect to the 2010 Performance Period, a Covered
Executive set forth in Appendix A and (ii) for any other Performance Periods, a Covered
Executive selected by the Committee under Section 5 to participate in this Plan for such
Performance Period.
	 
	 	(m)	 	“Performance Goal” shall mean achieving Net Earnings equal to $600,000,000 during the

Compensation Plan, as amended from time to time.
	 
	 	(p)	 	“Registration Date” shall mean the date on which the Company sells its Class A common stock
in a bona fide, firm commitment underwriting pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

3

 

	 	(q)	 	“Retirement” shall mean retirement from active employment with the Company and its
Affiliated Employers on or after meeting the requirements for normal retirement or early
retirement under the Liberty Mutual Retirement Benefit Plan (with respect to employment
termination prior to January 1, 2011) or the Liberty Mutual Agency Corporation Retirement
Benefit Plan (with respect to employment termination after December 31, 2010). For avoidance of
doubt, Retirement shall not include termination of the Participant’s employment for cause by
the Company or its Affiliated Employers regardless of whether such Participant qualifies for
normal or early retirement under either the Liberty Mutual Retirement Benefit Plan or the
Liberty Mutual Agency Corporation Retirement Benefit Plan.
	 
	 	(r)	 	“Transition Period” shall mean the period beginning with the Registration Date and ending
as of the earlier of: (i) the date of the first annual meeting of stockholders of the Company
at which directors are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year
following the calendar year in which the Registration Date occurs; and (ii) the expiration of
the “reliance period” under Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f)(2).

SECTION 4. ADMINISTRATION: Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall
have full power and authority to interpret this Plan, to prescribe, amend, and rescind rules
and regulations relating to it, to select Participants, to determine the amount of any Awards
and to make all other determinations deemed necessary, appropriate or advisable for the
administration of this Plan. The Committee may also correct any defect, supply any omission or
reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan in the manner and to the extent it shall deem
desirable to carry this Plan into effect. In exercising its authority, the Committee may use
such objective or subjective factors as it determines to be appropriate in its sole discretion.
Any interpretation or determination made and any action taken by the Committee under this Plan
shall be within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time, and shall be
final, binding and conclusive for all purposes on all persons, including, but not limited to,
Participants, their legal representatives and beneficiaries and employees of the Company and
its Affiliated Employers. Before any payments are made under this Plan, the Committee shall
certify in writing that the Performance Goal has been met in compliance with the requirements
of Section 162(m). No member of the Committee shall be eligible to participate in this Plan.

SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY: The Covered Executives set forth in Appendix A shall be eligible to
participate in this Plan for the 2010 Performance Period. The Committee shall designate which
Covered Executives shall be eligible to participate in this Plan for all other Performance
Periods.

SECTION 6. AWARDS:

	 	(a)	 	The Committee may make Awards to Covered Executives with respect to a Performance Period,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan. The Committee shall designate in
writing the Covered Executives who will be eligible to earn a payment under an Award for a
Performance Period and the Maximum Amount applicable to each designated Covered Executive
within 90 days after the

4

 

	 	 	 	commencement of such Performance Period or such other date as required by Section 162(m) of the
Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. The Maximum Amount of the Awards provided to
the Covered Executives for the 2010 Performance Period is set forth in Appendix A hereto.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Upon the certification in writing of the attainment of the Performance Goal with respect to
a Performance Period, and prior to payment of an Award, each Covered Executive shall be deemed
to have earned a payment equal to the Award’s Maximum Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Committee may reduce the amount to be paid to a Participant with respect to an Award in its
sole discretion to any amount less than the Maximum Amount, including zero. The Committee shall
take into account such factors as it considers appropriate when exercising its discretion, and
its determination of the amount to be paid under this Plan shall be final and binding on all
parties. In no event shall the Committee increase the Maximum Amount payable under an Award for
a Performance Period after it is set or waive the achievement of the Performance Goal for a
Performance Period.

SECTION 7. PAYMENT OF AWARDS:

	 	(a)	 	Subject to the provisions of Section 7(b) and Section 7(c) below, each Participant shall be
eligible to receive payment of his or her Award under this Plan with respect to the most recent
Performance Period not later than the next following March 15th; provided, however, that
payment of an Award may be deferred in accordance with a written election by a Participant
under a deferred compensation plan as may be permitted by the Committee. Awards may be paid in
cash, stock, restricted stock, options, other stock-based or stock-denominated units or any
combination thereof as determined by the Committee.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Payment of amounts under an Award under this Plan with respect to a Performance Period
requires that the Participant be an active employee of the Company or one of its direct
subsidiaries on the March 15th next following such period or, if earlier, the actual payment
date. A Covered Executive who terminates employment prior to the payment date for an Award
forfeits any rights to receive a payment with respect to that Award. Notwithstanding the
foregoing:

	 	(i)	 	A Participant who ceases to be a Covered Executive but remains employed by the Company or
an Affiliated Employer during a Performance Period shall be eligible to receive a pro rata
amount of the amount that otherwise may be payable under Section 6 above with respect to an
Award relating to such Performance Period.

5

 

	 	(ii)	 	A Participant who dies, suffers a Disability or terminates employment due to Retirement on
or after April 1st during a Performance Period shall be eligible to receive a pro rata amount
of the amount that otherwise may be payable under Section 6 above with respect to an Award
relating to such Performance Period. If a Participant dies, suffers a Disability or terminates
employment due to Retirement prior to April 1st of a Performance Period, any Award relating to
such Performance Period shall be immediately forfeited.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee shall determine whether the
Company has met the Performance Goal with respect to the Performance Period in which the
Change in Control occurs (the “Change in Control Performance Period”). Solely for purposes
of this Section 7(b)(iii), the Committee shall make this determination by comparing
financial results for the Change in Control Performance Period against a pro rata amount
of the Performance Goal. Any amount that the Committee determines shall be paid to a
Covered Executive with respect to the Change in Control Performance Period shall be paid
within five business days after such Change in Control.

	 	 	 	For purposes of this Section 7(b), with respect to an amount to be calculated under either clause
(i), (ii) and (iii) hereof, “pro rata” means a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number
of actual days the Participant worked for the Company or its direct subsidiaries during the
applicable Performance Period, and the denominator of which shall be 365. Any pro rata payment of
an Award under this Section 7(b) shall remain subject to the attainment of the applicable
Performance Goal (subject to adjustment under clause (iii) in the event of a Change in Control) by
the Company.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Amounts paid under this Plan shall be subject to the recovery by the Company under the
Company’s compensation recovery policy as in effect from time to time.

SECTION 8. WITHHOLDING: The Committee may make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem
necessary and appropriate for the withholding of any taxes that the Company is required by law or
regulation of any governmental authority, whether federal, state, local, domestic, or foreign, to
withhold in connection with an Award, including, but not limited to, withholding cash or common
stock due or to become due with respect to an Award.

SECTION 9. NO RIGHT TO AWARDS: No Covered Executive shall have any claim to be granted any Award
under this Plan, and there is no obligation for uniform treatment of employees under this Plan. The
terms and conditions of Awards need not be the same with respect to different Participants.

SECTION 10. NO RIGHT TO EMPLOYMENT: The grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a
Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or an Affiliated Employer. The
Company may at any time terminate a
Covered Executive’s

6

 

employment free from any liability or any claim under this Plan, unless otherwise specifically
provided hereunder.

SECTION 11. OTHER AWARDS:

	 	(a)	 	Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as limiting the authority of the Committee, Board, the
Company or any Affiliated Employer to establish any other compensation plan, or in any way limiting
its or their authority to pay bonuses or supplemental compensation to any persons employed by the
Company or an Affiliated Employer, whether or not such person is a Participant in this Plan and
regardless of how the amount of such bonuses or compensation is determined. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a Participant shall not be eligible or otherwise entitled to receive a payment under the
Liberty Mutual Management Incentive Compensation Plan upon earning a payment under this Plan with
respect to the 2010 Performance Period.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Awards under this Plan shall not constitute compensation for the purpose of determining
participation or benefits under any other plan of the Company unless specifically included as
compensation in such plan.

SECTION 12. TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT: Subject to the approval of the Board, where required, the
Committee may at any time and from time to time alter, amend, suspend, or terminate this Plan in
whole or in part; provided, however, that no action which requires shareholder approval in order
for this Plan to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, or stock exchange listing requirements shall be effective unless such action is approved
by the shareholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no termination or amendment of
this Plan may, without the consent of the Participant to whom a payment under an Award has been
determined for a completed Performance Period but not yet paid, adversely affect the rights of such
Participant in such Award.

SECTION 13. SECTION 162(m): Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, prior
to the Registration Date and during the Transition Period, the provisions of this Plan requiring
compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code for Awards intended to qualify as “performance-based
compensation” shall only apply to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code. This Plan is
intended to be subject to the relief set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(f)(1) and
shall be interpreted accordingly during the Transition Period. The “material terms of the
performance goal” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.162-27(e)(4)) under which
Awards may be granted under this Plan for periods after the Transition Period shall be subject to
the approval by a majority stockholder vote in accordance with Section 162(m) of the Code and the
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder.

SECTION 14. APPLICABLE LAW: All questions pertaining to the construction, regulation, validity and
effect of the provisions of this Plan shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

7

 

SECTION 15. OTHER PROVISIONS:

	 	(a)	 	No member of the Committee or the Board, and no officer, employee or agent of the Company or
its Affiliated Employers shall be liable for any act or action hereunder, whether of commission or
omission, taken by any other member, or by any officer, agent, or employee, or, except in
circumstances involving bad faith, for anything done or omitted to be done in the administration of
this Plan.
	 
	 	(b)	 	If any provision of this Plan or any Award is, becomes, or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction or would disqualify this 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 so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of
the Committee, materially altering the purpose or intent of this Plan or the Award, such provision
shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction or Award, and the remainder of this Plan or such Award
shall remain in full force and effect.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Neither this Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund
of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company or any Affiliated Employer and a
Participant or any other person. To the extent any person acquires a right to receive payments from
the Company or an Affiliated Employer pursuant to an Award, such right shall be no greater than the
right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company or any Affiliated Employer.
	 
	 	(d)	 	Headings are given to the Sections of this Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate
reference. Such headings shall not be deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or
interpretation of this Plan or any provisions thereof.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, no Participant or beneficiary may sell, assign,
transfer, discount, or pledge as collateral for a loan, or otherwise anticipate any right to
payment under this Plan other than by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.
	 
	 	(f)	 	The Committee may adopt, amend, or terminate arrangements, not inconsistent with the intent of
this Plan, to make available tax or other benefits under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction to
Participants subject to such laws or to conform with the laws and regulations of any such foreign
jurisdiction.

FORM OF

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD

NOTIFICATION AND AGREEMENT

Director Restricted Stock Unit Award

	 	 	 	 	 

	Participant:

	 	Grant Date:	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Number of Award Shares:

	 	Vesting Date:
	 	1st Anniversary of Grant Date

1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. This restricted stock unit award (“Award”) is granted pursuant
to the
Liberty Mutual Agency Corporation 2010 Executive Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), by Liberty
Mutual
Agency Corporation (the “Company”) to the Participant as a non-employee director of the Company’s
Board of
Directors (the “Board”). The Company hereby grants to the Participant as of the Grant Date (set
forth above) the
Award consisting of a right to receive the number of shares set forth above (“Award Shares”) of the
Company’s
Class A common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”), upon the Vesting Date, pursuant to the
Plan, as it may
be amended from time to time, and subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth
herein. Capitalized
terms in this award notification and award agreement (the “Award Agreement”) shall have the meaning
specified in
the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

2. Terms and Conditions. The terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to this Award are
specified in
the Plan, this Award Agreement and any applicable prospectus supplement (together, the
“Prospectus”). The terms,
conditions and restrictions in the Plan and the Prospectus include, but are not limited to,
provisions relating to
amendment, vesting, cancellation, and settlement, all of which are hereby incorporated by reference
into this Award
Agreement to the extent not otherwise set forth herein.

By accepting this Award, the Participant acknowledges receipt of the Prospectus and that he or she
has read
and understands the Prospectus.

The Participant understands that the value that may be realized, if any, from this Award is
contingent, and depends
on the future market price of the Common Stock, among other factors. The Participant further
confirms the
Participant’s understanding that this Award is intended to promote director retention and stock
ownership and to
align the director’s interests with those of shareholders, is subject to vesting conditions and
will be cancelled if the
vesting conditions are not satisfied. Thus, the Participant understands that (a) any monetary value
assigned to this
Award in any communication regarding this Award is contingent, hypothetical, or for illustrative
purposes only, and
does not express or imply any promise or intent by the Company to deliver, directly or indirectly,
any certain or
determinable cash value to the Participant; (b) receipt of this Award or any incentive award in the
past is neither an
indication nor a guarantee that an incentive award of any type or amount will be made in the
future, and that absent a
written agreement to the contrary, the Company is free to change its practices and policies
regarding incentive
awards at any time; (c) vesting may be subject to confirmation and final determination by the
Committee that the
vesting conditions have been satisfied; and (d) Award Shares shall be subject to lock-up
restrictions as described in
Section 14 of this Award Agreement. The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder of the
Company with
respect to any shares covered by this Award unless and until this Award is vested and settled in
shares of Common
Stock.

3. Vesting. This Award shall vest in full on the Vesting Date set forth above provided that the
Participant
continuously serves as a non-employee director on the Board from the Grant Date through the Vesting
Date. The
Participant shall be credited with an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the dividends the
Participant would
have received if the Participant had been the owner of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
the number of
Award Shares; provided, however, that no amount shall be credited with respect to Shares that have
been delivered
to the Participant as of the applicable record date. Dividend equivalents shall be subject to the
same terms and
conditions as the Award Shares, and shall vest (or, if applicable, be forfeited) at the same time
as the Award Shares.

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, vesting of the Award (and any dividend equivalents) shall be
prohibited to the extent
it would violate applicable law.

4. Cessation of Services. All of the Participant’s rights under this Award shall expire and be
permanently
forfeited upon ceasing to serve as a non-employee director on the Board prior to the Vesting Date.

5. Settlement of Award. The Company shall deliver to the Participant a number of shares of Common
Stock
equal to the number of vested Award Shares on the Vesting Date or as soon as administratively
practicable
thereafter, but in no event later than two and one-half (2-1/2) months following the end of the
calendar year in which
the Award vests (the “Short-Term Deferral Period”). For avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be
entitled to delay
the issuance of shares to a date not later than the end of the Short-Term Deferral Period as the
Committee may deem
necessary or appropriate to avoid having the Company inadvertently cease to be a member of an
“affiliated group”
(within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code) with Liberty Mutual Group Inc. The dividend
equivalents
described in Section 3 above shall be paid in cash at the same time as the delivery of the Shares
under this Section 5
which correspond to such dividend equivalents.

6. Compliance with Non-Compete; Compensation Recovery. The Award Shares shall be subject to being
recovered under any compensation recovery policy that may be adopted from time to time by the
Company. For
avoidance of doubt, compensation recovery rights to Award Shares shall extend to the proceeds
realized by the
Participant due to the sale or other transfer of the Award Shares.

7. Consent to Electronic Delivery. In lieu of receiving documents in paper format, the Participant
agrees, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, to accept electronic delivery of any documents that the
Company may be
required to deliver (including, but not limited to, prospectuses, prospectus supplements, grant or
award notifications
and agreements, account statements, annual and quarterly reports, and all other agreements, forms
and
communications) in connection with this and any other prior or future incentive award or program
made or offered
by the Company or its predecessors or successors. Electronic delivery of a document to the
Participant may be via a
Company e-mail system or by reference to a location on a Company intranet site to which the
Participant has access.

8. Administration. In administering the Plan, or to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, tax,
or
accounting requirements, it may be necessary for a member of the LMAC Group to transfer certain
Participant data
to another member of the LMAC Group, an Affiliated Employer, or to its outside service providers or
governmental
agencies. By accepting the Award, the Participant consents, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
to the use and
transfer, electronically or otherwise, of the Participant’s personal data to such entities for such
purposes.

9. Entire Agreement/Amendment/Survival/Assignment. The terms, conditions and restrictions set forth
in
the Plan, this Award Agreement and the Prospectus, constitute the entire understanding between the
parties hereto
regarding this Award and supersede all previous written, oral, or implied understandings between
the parties hereto
about the subject matter hereof. This Award Agreement may be amended by a subsequent writing
(including e-mail
or other electronic form) agreed to between the Company and the Participant. Section headings
herein are for
convenience only and have no effect on the interpretation of this Award Agreement. The provisions
of this Award
Agreement that are intended to survive the Termination Date of a Participant shall survive such
date. The Company
may assign this Award Agreement and its rights and obligations hereunder to any current or future
member of the
LMAC Group or an Affiliated Employer.

10. No Right to Membership on the Board. The Participant agrees that nothing in this Award
Agreement
constitutes a contract of services with the Company for a definite period of time. Both the
Participant and the
Company retain the right to terminate the Participant’s status as a Director at any time for any
reason or no reason
not otherwise prohibited by applicable law. The Company retains the right to decrease the
Participant’s
compensation and/or benefits, or otherwise change the terms or conditions of the Participant’s
service on the Board.

11. Transfer Restrictions. The Participant may not sell, assign, transfer, pledge, encumber or
otherwise
alienate, hypothecate or dispose of this Award or the Participant’s right hereunder to receive any
Award Shares,
except as otherwise provided in the Committee’s sole discretion consistent with the Plan and
applicable securities
