Stock”) as is determined by dividing (x) $5 million by the product of (A) the “Fair Market Value” (as defined in the SIP) of a share of Common Stock on January 4, 2010 and (B) 0.3, with a per share exercise
price equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock as of the date of grant (the “Replacement Option”), and (ii) an award of that number of restricted stock units under the SIP as is determined by dividing

receipt from the Participant of written notice of the event which constitutes Good Reason; provided, further, that “Good Reason” will cease to exist for an event on the sixtieth (60th) day following the later of its occurrence or the Participant’s

subject to the Option (the “Option Price”) shall be as set forth on the Notice. The Option is intended to be a non-qualified stock option, and as such is not intended to be treated as an option that complies with
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Option granted hereby constitutes the “PublicCo Stock Options” described in Section 3.3.3.1 of the Employment Agreement. 
 3. Vesting of the Option. 
 (a) In General. Subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c), the Option shall vest and become exercisable at such times as are set forth in the Notice. 
 (b) Change in Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control, the unvested portion of the Option, to the
extent not previously cancelled or forfeited, shall immediately become vested and exercisable upon the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the Change in Control or (ii) the termination of the Participant’s Employment (A) by

period set forth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement. If the Participant is absent from work with the Company or with an Affiliate because of a temporary disability (any disability other than a Disability), or on an approved leave of absence for
any purpose, the Participant shall not, during the period of any such absence, be deemed, by virtue of such absence alone, to have terminated Employment, except to the extent that the Committee so determines. 
 4. Exercise of Option.

the Company’s Shares are then traded, then the last day on which the Option may be exercised shall be the preceding trading day on the NYSE or such other stock exchange or trading system. 
 (i) Death or Disability. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates due to
the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant (or his or her representative) may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) three (3) years following the date of such termination and
(B) the Expiration Date; 
 (ii) Retirement. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company
and its Affiliates terminates due to the Participant’s Retirement, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) five (5) years following the date of such termination and
(B) the Expiration Date; provided, that if the Company or any Affiliate has given the Participant notice that the Participant’s Employment is being terminated for Cause prior to the Participant’s election to terminate due to
the Participant’s Retirement, then the provisions of Section 4(a)(v) shall control; 

 (iii) Unsatisfactory Performance; Voluntary Termination without Good
Reason. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate (other than after a Change in Control as set forth in Section 4(a)(vi)) for unsatisfactory performance, but not
for Cause (as determined in its sole discretion by the Company or any Affiliate), or the Participant voluntarily terminates Employment at any time without Good Reason, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending
on the earlier of (A) three months following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration Date; provided, that if Participant satisfies the age and service requirements described in the definition of “Retirement,”
then the provisions of Section 4(a)(ii) shall control; provided further, that if the Company or any Affiliate has given the Participant notice that the Participant’s Employment is being terminated for Cause prior to the Participant’s
election to voluntarily terminate Employment without Good Reason, then the provisions of Section 4(a)(v) shall control; 
 (iv) Termination other than for Cause. Subject to the provision of Section 4(a)(vi), if the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or an
Affiliate for any reason other than by the Company or its Affiliates for Cause, unsatisfactory performance or due to the Participant’s death or Disability, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the
earlier of (A) one year following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration Date; provided that if Participant satisfies the age and service requirements described in the definition of “Retirement,” then the provisions
of Section 4(a)(ii) shall control; 
 (v) Termination by the Company for Cause. If the
Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate for Cause, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) one month
following the date of such termination and (B) the Expiration Date; provided, however, that if the Participant is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate for Cause on account of one or more acts of fraud, embezzlement or
misappropriation committed by the Participant, the Vested Portion of the Option shall immediately terminate in full and cease to be exercisable; 
 (vi) After a Change in Control. If the Participant’s Employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates after a Change in Control due to a termination by the Company other than for
Cause or due to the Participant’s resignation for Good Reason, the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of (A) one year following the date of such termination and (B) the
Expiration Date; provided that if Participant satisfies the age and service requirements described in the definition of “Retirement,” then the provisions of Section 4(a)(ii) shall control; and 
 (vii) Transfers of Employment. If (i) the Company or any Affiliate transfers the Participant’s Employment to
a corporation, company or other entity that is not an Affiliate or (ii) the Affiliate with which the Participant has a service relationship ceases to be an Affiliate due to a sale or other disposition by the Company or an Affiliate, the Option,
to the

 
extent not then vested, shall be immediately canceled by the Company without consideration and the Participant may exercise the Vested Portion of the Option for a period ending on the earlier of
(A) one year following the date of such transfer, sale or other disposition and (B) the Expiration Date; provided that if Participant satisfies the age and service requirements described in the definition of “Retirement,” then
the provisions of Section 4(a)(ii) shall control. 
 (b) Method of Exercise. 
 (i) Subject to Section 4(a) of this Agreement, the Vested Portion of an Option may be exercised by delivering to the
Company at its principal office written notice of intent to so exercise; provided that the Option may be exercised with respect to whole Shares only. Such notice shall specify the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised,
shall be signed (whether or not in electronic form) by the person exercising the Option and shall make provision for the payment of the Option Price. Payment of the aggregate Option Price shall be paid to the Company, at the election of the
Committee, pursuant to one or more of the following methods: (A) in cash, or its equivalent; (B) by transferring Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the Shares being purchased to the Company and
satisfying such other requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six (6) months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee or
generally accepted accounting principles); (C) partly in cash and partly in Shares; or (D) if there is a public market for the Shares at such time, subject to such rules as may be established by the Committee, through delivery of
irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price. No Participant shall have any rights to dividends or
other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to the Option until the issuance of the Shares. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, absent an available exemption to registration or qualification, the Option may not be exercised prior to the completion of any registration or
qualification of the Option or the Shares under applicable state and federal securities or other laws, or under any ruling or regulation of any governmental body or national securities exchange that the Committee shall in its sole reasonable
discretion determine to be necessary or advisable. 
 (iii) Upon the Company’s determination that the Option
has been validly exercised as to any of the Shares, the Company shall issue certificates in the Participant’s name for such Shares. However, the Company shall not be liable to the Participant for damages relating to any delays in issuing the
certificates to the Participant, any loss by the Participant of the certificates, or any mistakes or errors in the issuance of the certificates or in the certificates themselves. 
 (iv) In the event of the Participant’s death, the Vested Portion of an Option shall remain vested and exercisable by the
Participant’s executor or administrator, or the person or persons to whom the Participant’s rights under this Agreement

 
shall pass by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as the case may be, to the extent set forth in Section 4(a) of this Agreement. Any heir or legatee of the Participant shall take
rights herein granted subject to the terms and conditions hereof. 
 (v) As a condition to the exercise of any
Option evidenced by this Agreement, the Participant agrees to hold, for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of such exercise, a number of Shares issued pursuant to such exercise, equal to 75% (rounded down to the nearest whole
Share) of the quotient of (A) and (B), where (A) is the product of (1) the number of Shares exercised by the Participant multiplied by (2) fifty percent (50%) of the excess of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of
exercise over the exercise price and (B) is the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise. The holding requirement related to Shares that is established in this Section 4(b)(v) shall terminate with respect to the Options
evidenced by this Agreement (as well as any Shares issued pursuant to exercise of such Options) on the first anniversary of the date of termination of the Participant’s Employment with the Company or its Affiliates. 
 5. No Right to Continued Employment. Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall be construed as giving the Participant the right to be
retained in the Employment of the Company or any Affiliate. Further, the Company or its Affiliate may at any time dismiss the Participant or discontinue any other relationship, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan or this Agreement,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 
 6. Legend on Certificates. The certificates representing the Shares
purchased by exercise of an Option shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem reasonably advisable under the Plan or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange
Commission, any stock exchange upon which such Shares are listed, any applicable federal or state laws and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to
make appropriate reference to such restrictions. 
 7. Transferability. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, an
Option may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge,
attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or any Affiliate. 
 8.
Withholding. The Participant may be required to pay to the Company or its Affiliate and the Company or its Affiliate shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from any payment due or transfer made under the Option or under the
Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities, other Awards or other property) of any applicable withholding taxes in respect of the Option, its exercise, or any payment or
transfer under the Option or under the Plan and to take such action as may be necessary in the option of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. 

 9. Securities Laws. Upon the acquisition of any Shares pursuant to the exercise of an
Option, the Participant will make or enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with this Agreement. 
 10. Notices. Any notice under this Agreement shall be addressed to the Company in care of its General Counsel at the principal
executive office of the Company, with a copy to the Director, Global Stock Plans Administration, at the principal executive office of the Company, and to the Participant at the address appearing in the personnel records of the Company for the
Participant or to either party at such other address as either party hereto may hereafter designate in writing to the other. Any such notice shall be deemed effective upon receipt thereof by the addressee.

purpose for which it was given, and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent. 
 16. Reformation;
Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the Notice (including any provision of the Plan that is incorporated herein by reference) shall hereafter be held to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, in whole or in part, in any
jurisdiction under any circumstances for any reason, (i) such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to cause such provision to be valid, enforceable and legal while preserving the intent of the parties as expressed in, and
the benefits of the parties provided by, this Agreement, the Notice and the Plan or (ii) if such provision cannot be so reformed, such provision shall be severed from this Agreement or the Notice and an equitable adjustment shall be made to
this Agreement or the Notice (including, without limitation, addition of necessary further provisions) so as to give effect to the intent as so expressed and the benefits so provided. Such holding

 
shall not affect or impair the validity, enforceability or legality of such provision in any other jurisdiction or under any other circumstances. Neither such holding nor such reformation or
