which such termination occurs. 
 SECTION 4. Forfeiture of Options. (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the
Committee determines otherwise, and except as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement or in Section 3 of this Award Agreement, if the Vesting Date with respect to any Options awarded to you pursuant to this Award Agreement has not
occurred prior to the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which your employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries terminates, (ii) the date on which you breach any restrictive covenant (which, for the avoidance of doubt,
includes any non-compete, non-solicit or confidentiality provisions, but does not include any non-disparagement provision set forth in Section 7(f) of your Employment Agreement or otherwise) contained in any arrangements with the Company
(including your Employment Agreement) to which you are subject and (iii) the date on which you engage in fraud or wilful misconduct that contributes materially to any financial restatement or material loss to the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, your rights with respect to such Options shall immediately terminate, and you shall be entitled to no further payments or benefits with respect thereto. Furthermore, except as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement, in the
event that the Company terminates your employment for Cause or you engage in conduct described in clause (ii) or (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company may, (A) in the case of a termination for Cause, at any time up
to six months after such termination, or (B) in the case of a violation of the restrictive covenants or engaging in fraud or willful misconduct, at any time up to six months after learning of such conduct, but in no event more than two years
after you engage in such conduct, (x) terminate or cancel the Options, including any vested amounts thereof, (y) require you to forfeit or remit to the Company any amount payable, or the after-tax net amount paid or received by you, in
respect of any Options the vesting of which was accelerated upon termination of your employment for any reason, and (z) require you to forfeit or remit to the Company any Shares (or the equivalent value in cash) required to be held by you under
the Company’s Stock Ownership Guideline (subject, in the case of this Award Agreement and all other equity-based award agreements with the Company, to an aggregate maximum of four times your base salary, as in effect on the date of termination)
and that were issued to you upon exercise of the Options; provided, however, that, in cases where cure is possible, you shall first be provided a 15-day cure period to cease and to cure such conduct. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Committee determines otherwise, and except as otherwise provided in your Employment
Agreement, vested and unexercised Options shall automatically expire on the earliest to occur of (i) the date of the termination of your employment for Cause, (i) the date on which you breach any restrictive covenant (which, for the
avoidance of doubt, includes any non-compete, non-

  
 3 

 
solicit, non-disparagement or confidentiality provisions) contained in any arrangements of the Company (including your Employment Agreement) to which you are subject, (iii) the date on which
you engage in fraud or willful misconduct that materially contributes to any financial restatements or material loss to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and (iv) three months after the date of the termination of your employment if your
employment is terminated by the Company for any reason other than Cause or you resign voluntarily for any reason, subject, in each case, to the provisions of the last sentence of Section 4(a) of this Award Agreement. 

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Award Agreement or your Employment Agreement to the contrary, all Options shall automatically
expire on the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date. 
 SECTION 5. No Rights as a Stockholder. You shall not have any
rights or privileges of a stockholder with respect to the Options subject to this Award Agreement unless and until certificates representing Shares are actually issued and delivered to you or your legal representative upon exercise of vested
Options. 
 SECTION 6. Non-Transferability of Options. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in its discretion,
Options may not be sold, assigned, alienated, transferred, pledged, attached or otherwise encumbered except as provided in Section 9(a) of the Plan. Any purported sale, assignment, alienation, transfer, pledge, attachment or other encumbrance
of an Option in violation of the provisions of this Section 6 and Section 9(a) of the Plan shall be void. 
 SECTION
7. Withholding, Consents and Legends. (a) Withholding. The delivery of Shares pursuant to Section 3(b) of this Award Agreement is conditioned on satisfaction of any applicable withholding taxes in accordance with this
Section 7(a) and Section 9(d) of the Plan. No later than the date as of which an amount first becomes includible in your gross income for Federal, state, local or foreign income tax purposes with respect to the exercise of any Options, you
shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Company regarding the payment of, any Federal, state, local and foreign taxes that are required by applicable laws and regulations to be withheld with respect to such amount. In the
event that there is withholding tax liability in connection with the exercise of an Option, you may satisfy, in whole or in part, any withholding tax liability by having the Company withhold from the number of Shares you would be entitled to receive
upon exercise of the Option a number of Shares having a Fair Market Value (which shall either have the meaning set forth in the Plan or shall have such other meaning as determined by the Company in accordance with applicable withholding
requirements) equal to such withholding tax liability. 
 (b) Consents. Your rights in respect of the Options are
conditioned on the receipt to the full satisfaction of the Committee of any required consents that the Committee may determine to be necessary or advisable (including your consent to the Company’s supplying to any third-party recordkeeper such
personal information as the Committee deems advisable to administer this Award). 

  
 4 

 (c) Legends. The Company may affix to certificates for Shares issued pursuant to this
Award Agreement any legend that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable (including to reflect any restrictions to which you may be subject under any applicable securities laws). The Company may advise the transfer agent to place a stop
order against any legended Shares. 
 SECTION 8. Successors and Assigns of the Company. The terms and conditions of this
Award Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns. 
 SECTION
9. Committee Discretion. The Committee shall have full and plenary discretion with respect to any actions to be taken or determinations to be made in connection with this Award Agreement, and its determinations shall be final, binding and
conclusive.

your Employment Agreement, you and the Company irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of (i) the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and (ii) the courts of the State of New York for the purposes of
any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of this Award Agreement or the terms and conditions of the Plan. You and the Company agree to commence any such action, suit or proceeding either in the United States District Court for the Southern

alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate this Award Agreement prospectively or retroactively; provided, however, that, except as set forth in Section 15(d) of this Award Agreement, any such waiver, amendment, alteration,
suspension, discontinuance, cancelation or termination that would materially and adversely impair your rights under this Award Agreement shall not to that extent be effective without your consent (it being understood, notwithstanding the foregoing
proviso, that this Award Agreement and the RSUs shall be subject to the provisions of Section 7(c) of the Plan). 
 SECTION
15. Section 409A. (a) It is intended that the provisions of this Award Agreement comply with Section 409A, and all provisions of this Award Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the
requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A. 
 (b) Neither you nor any of your creditors or
beneficiaries shall have the right to subject any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Award Agreement to any anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or
garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable to you or for your benefit under this Award Agreement may not be reduced by, or offset against, any amount owing by
you to the Company or any of its Affiliates. 

  
 6 

 (c) If, at the time of your separation from service (within the meaning of
Section 409A), (i) you shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A and using the identification methodology selected by the Company from time to time) and (ii) the Company shall make a good faith
determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to
avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then the Company shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it, without interest (except as otherwise provided in your Employment Agreement), on the first
business day after such six-month period. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any provision of this Award Agreement to the contrary, in light
of the uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, the Company reserves the right to make amendments to this Award Agreement as the Company deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of taxes or penalties under
Section 409A. In any case, you shall be solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your account in connection with this Award Agreement (including any taxes and penalties
under Section 409A), and neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. 

SECTION 16. Counterparts. This Award Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same
effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. You and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that signatures delivered by facsimile or electronic means (including by “pdf”) shall be deemed effective for
all purposes.

written above.
