 Vijay Ullal 

Dear Vijay: 
 On behalf of Fairchild
Semiconductor, I am pleased to offer you the position of President and Chief Operating Officer, reporting to me. I hope that you are as excited as we are for you to become a member of the Fairchild team. This letter describes the terms and
conditions of our offer and applicable company plans and policies in greater detail. 
 1. Base Salary. 

Your initial base salary will be $450,000 per year, which is $37,500 per month, to be paid bi-weekly. You will be eligible for base salary increases in
accordance with the company’s annual performance review cycle. 
 2. Incentive Bonus. 

You will participate in the Enhanced Fairchild Incentive Plan (EFIP), our annual cash bonus award program, at a target participation level of 120%. EFIP
awards to Section 16 officers are made under the cash incentive award provisions of the Fairchild Semiconductor 2007 Stock Plan (“Stock Plan”). This award will provide an opportunity for you to receive an annual cash bonus of up to
180% of your annual cash compensation, based on achievement of financial performance goals. The company sets goals at the corporate level (likely to remain based on EBIT) and at the individual officer level (your goals are likely to be substantially
the same as those of the CEO). Depending on the achievement of these goals, the cash incentive amount, if any, is between 50% and 150% of a participant’s target participation level (in your case, this means the amount of your bonus could be
between 60% and 180% of your annual base compensation). The goals for 2013 have yet to be determined. 
 3. Equity Awards. 

On your start date you will received an award (“RSU Grant”) of 150,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), representing 150,000 shares of
Fairchild Semiconductor common stock, which will vest over the three years following your start date. You will be eligible to receive subsequent, annual grants of RSUs, performance stock units and other equity awards consistent with our annual
equity award program, which currently grants awards in February-March of each year. All grants are governed by the terms and conditions of the Stock Plan and standard award agreements under the Stock Plan. The award agreement for your initial grant
of 150,000 RSUs is enclosed as Attachment 1. 
 4. Vacation. 
 You will be entitled to four weeks (160 hours) of paid vacation per year, which accrue ratably over the course of the year.

 5. Severance in Case of Involuntary Termination. 

You will participate in the company’s Executive Severance Policy, which is enclosed as Attachment 2 (as supplemented and modified in application to
you by the applicable terms of this letter agreement, the “Severance Policy”) at the level of President. Under the Severance Policy, if your employment is terminated by the company for any reason other than Cause (as defined below), you
will be entitled to a lump-sum payment of 15 months’ base salary, continued medical coverage for you and your eligible dependents for 15 months following termination and full vesting of your RSU Grant. 

You will also be entitled to the severance payment set forth in the Severance Policy (the “Severance Payment”) if your employment with
Fairchild Semiconductor and its affiliates is terminated by you for Good Reason. “Good Reason” under the Severance Policy means your resignation following the occurrence of one or more of the following without your consent: (a) a
material reduction in your title, authority, duties or responsibilities; (b) any material reduction in your base salary or target incentive compensation opportunity; (c) a requirement that you relocate your principal place of employment to
a location more than 20 miles from the prior location of your principal place of employment, (d) a material breach by Fairchild Semiconductor of this letter agreement or the Severance Policy, or purported amendment or termination of the
Severance Policy that would result in a material reduction in the rights to which you would otherwise be entitled pursuant thereto, or (e) your having to report to anyone other than the chief executive officer of Fairchild Semiconductor or its
board of directors. You may not resign for Good Reason without first providing Fairchild Semiconductor with written notice within 90 days of the initial existence of the condition that you believe constitutes Good Reason specifically identifying the
acts or omissions constituting the grounds for Good Reason and providing a reasonable cure period of not less than 30 days following the date of such notice. For purposes of this “Good Reason” definition, the term “Fairchild
Semiconductor” will be interpreted to include any subsidiary, parent, affiliate or successor of Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc., if applicable. 
 For purposes of the Severance Policy and this letter agreement, “Cause” means that you have (a) willfully breached or habitually neglected (following written notice from Fairchild
Semiconductor) your duties as Chief Operating Officer of Fairchild Semiconductor, including but not limited to any fiduciary duty owed by you to Fairchild Semiconductor, or (b) committed material act(s) of malfeasance, misappropriation of
Fairchild Semiconductor’s property, willful misconduct, fraud, embezzlement or other act(s) of moral turpitude that caused material harm to Fairchild Semiconductor or that would prevent the effective performance of your duties to Fairchild
Semiconductor or resulted in your material personal profit, or (c) engaged in any act or omission in the course of your employment with Fairchild Semiconductor that materially injured the business or reputation of Fairchild Semiconductor. In
each of cases (a), (b) and (c), if the act or circumstance giving rise to the termination for Cause is capable of being cured, then the termination for Cause will be valid only if such act or circumstance continues uncured for a period of 30
days following written notice to you specifying such act or circumstance as a means for termination for Cause as provided herein. 
 If your
employment with Fairchild Semiconductor is terminated by Fairchild Semiconductor without Cause or by you for Good Reason prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date (as defined in the agreement governing your RSU Grant (the “RSU
Agreement”)), then any Restricted Stock Units that are not Vested Restricted Stock Units (each as defined in the RSU Agreement) will immediately vest in full and be settled in accordance with Section 4 of the RSU Agreement.

 The release of claims described in the Severance Policy will be provided to you
promptly upon your termination of employment and will be substantially in the form attached to this letter agreement as Attachment 3. 

Section 409A. 
  

	 	a.	No severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to you, if any, pursuant to the Severance Policy or this letter agreement that, when considered together with any
other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations and guidance applicable thereto (“Section 409A”) (such
payments or separation benefits, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until you have a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to you, if any,
pursuant to the Severance Policy or this letter agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A 1(b)(9) will be payable until you has a “separation from service” within
the meaning of Section 409A. 

  

	 	b.	Any severance payments or benefits under the Severance Policy or this letter agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments will be paid on, or, in the case of
installments, will not commence until, the sixtieth (60th) day following your separation from service, or, if later, such time as required by paragraph 4(c). Except as required by paragraph 5(c) hereof, any installment payments that would have
been made to you during the sixty (60) day period immediately following your separation from service but for the preceding sentence will be paid to you on the sixtieth (60th) day following your separation from service and the remaining
payments will be made as provided in the Severance Policy and this agreement. 

  

	 	c.	If you are a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of your termination (other than due to death), then the Deferred
Payments, if any, that are payable within the first six (6) months following your separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the
date of your separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if you die following your
separation from service, but before the date that is six (6) months after your separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the
date of your death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment and benefit payable under the Severance Policy and this agreement is intended to
constitute a separate payment under Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations. 

  

	 	d.	Any amount paid under the Severance Policy or this agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in
Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (a) above.

	 	e.	The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided under the
Severance Policy or this agreement will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. The parties hereto agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to
the Severance Policy and this agreement and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition before actual payment to you under Section 409A.

 6. Change in Control. 
 The Stock Plan and Severance Plan include provisions that apply in the event of a change in control. . 
 Stock Plan. Under section 12 of the Stock Plan, in the event of a change in control (as defined in the plan), all of your initial RSUs and any other equity awards you have at the time will vest in
full, whether or not your employment is affected by the change in control. Under our standard performance stock unit award agreement, any performance units that have yet to be scored (i.e., units for which the performance measurement period is
ongoing at the time) would vest in full, assuming achievement of performance goals at the 100% level. 
 Severance Plan. Under the
Severance Plan, in the event of a change in control, the company must require the acquiring company or successor to assume all of the company’s obligations for the severance benefits described above. If the acquiring company or successor fails
to assume those obligations, then the closing of the change-in-control transaction would be treated as a not-for-cause termination event, triggering payment of severance benefits under the Severance Policy (in your case, the benefits described in
section 5 above). 
 7. Indemnification. 
 You are entitled to indemnification under our corporate bylaws and under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that the company purchases for your benefit. The indemnification provisions
of our bylaws provide you rights to indemnification from the company to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. As an officer, you are entitled to indemnification from the company (again, to the extent permitted by law) as a matter of right
(i.e., not subject to the company’s discretion), for all legal proceedings, including criminal and civil litigation as well as threatened proceedings, administrative proceedings and investigations, if you are a party or otherwise involved by
virtue of the fact that you are an officer of the company. Under the bylaws, you are entitled to reimbursement of expenses as incurred, indemnification rights are deemed contract rights, and any changes to the bylaws cannot operate retroactively to
your detriment. In cases where indemnification from the company is not permitted by law, or otherwise not available to you, the company maintains directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for your benefit. This description of
your rights to indemnification is qualified by reference to the actual terms and conditions of the bylaws. In addition, in the event of any litigation, threat of litigation, claim or dispute between you and any third party arising as a result of the
commencement of your employment with Fairchild Semiconductor or your entering into this letter agreement, the company agrees to retain outside counsel acceptable to you to represent you in such matter, at the company’s expense. In this
connection you represent to the company that, to the best of your knowledge, your employment by us or your

Page 5 
  
 entering into this agreement will not breach any duties you may owe to any third party, or breach any agreement to which you are a party, or violate the rights of any third party. 

8. Confidentiality and Trade Secrets of Former Employers. 
 We want to be sure to respect the rights of your former employer, Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., in its trade secrets and other confidential information. A separate letter to you on this subject will be
provided to you for your acknowledgement. 
 9. Form Employment Agreement. 
 Enclosed as Attachment 4 is our standard form employment agreement, which covers, among other things, your employment-at-will status, your obligation to protect Fairchild trade secrets and confidential
information, the disclosure of pre-existing intellectual property and your assignment to Fairchild of intellectual property rights in any of your inventions while employed by the company. 
 10. Medical/Dental, Life and Disability Insurance and Other Benefits. 
 You will be entitled
to participate in benefits generally available to our officers and employees, including medical and dental insurance, vision care, life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, disability insurance, long-term care insurance, our
401(k) plan and other programs. 
 Lastly, please note that the terms and conditions of the plans and policies described above are subject to
change in accordance with those terms and conditions. 
 If you have any questions regarding this offer, please do not hesitate to contact me,
Paul Delva or Kevin London .

	[Name]

 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 In consideration of my employment (or continued employment, as the case may be) by Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation, its affiliates, divisions, subsidiaries, successors and assigns (hereinafter
referred to as “the Company”), I hereby acknowledge and agree as follows: 
  

	A.	EMPLOYMENT AT WILL 

 I
acknowledge that my employment with the Company is at-will and can be terminated at the option of either party, with or without cause, and with or without notice. Nothing contained in this agreement shall limit or otherwise alter the foregoing.

  

	B.	OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES 

  

	 	1.	I certify that I have no other agreements, relationships, or commitments to any other person or entity that conflict with my obligations to the Company. I will disclose
to the Company, in writing, prior to accepting employment with the Company, any and all consulting or professional services I am presently performing for other parties. 

 

	 	2.	I will obtain written permission from an officer of the Company prior to accepting any offer to perform future consulting or professional services related to or
connected with a business, or products or projects which are similar to those of the Company. 

  

	C.	RELOCATION 

 Not
applicable. 
  

	D.	PROTECTION OF TRADE SECRETS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 

  

	 	1.	I understand that the Company has and will develop, compile and own certain trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information and know-how that are valuable and
unknown to the Company’s competitors. This information may include inventions, unissued patents, manufacturing or processing techniques, processes, formulas, data, including software products, matter relating to research and development
programs, products, customers, suppliers, sales or business practices of the Company (collectively known as “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information includes all information and know-how, whether or not in writing, that has or
could have commercial value, and also includes all information of which the unauthorized disclosure could be detrimental to the interests of the Company, whether or not such information is identified as confidential. I agree at all times during and
after my employment by the Company, to hold in strictest confidence, and not to use for my own purposes, and not to publish or to disclose to any person, firm or corporation, without the prior express written authorization of an officer of the
Company, any Confidential Information which I may in any way acquire, learn or develop during or by reason of my employment with the Company, except as such use or disclosure may be required in connection with my work for the Company.

  

	 	2.	I agree that all notes, books, engineering records, correspondence, drawings, files, memos, reports, sketches, laboratory notebooks, organizational charts, telephone
lists, computer disks or memory or any other materials containing or relating to Confidential Information or Inventions which may come into my possession, shall be the exclusive property of the Company to be used only in the performance of Company
duties. I agree that upon leaving the employ of the Company, I will return all of these materials to the Company prior to my departure. I recognize that the unauthorized taking, using or disclosing of any of the Company’s trade secrets is a
crime under state and federal law and could result in civil liability to the Company. 

  

	 	3.	Except with the written consent of an officer of the Company, I agree that I will not, either during the period of my employment, or for a period of one year following
the termination of my employment with the Company, interfere with the business of the Company by inducing an employee to leave the Company’s employ or by inducing a vendor or consultant to sever their relationship with the company. Because
information relating to the identities, key contact personnel, preferences, needs and circumstances of the Company’s customers are trade secrets that necessarily are and will be used by the me in the solicitation of business from the
Company’s customers, I agree that for a period of one year following the termination of my employment with the Company, I will not solicit business of any customer of the Company for services or products similar to those sold by the Company
unless I first obtain the written consent of an officer of the company. 

	 	4.	I agree not to use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of others, including all prior employers, in my work at the company. Should a situation
arise in which I believe that my job duties may lead to the use or disclosure of proprietary information or trade secrets of another, I agree to notify the local human resources director or the legal department immediately. I represent and warrant
that I have returned all property and confidential information belonging to my prior employers and that, in working for the Company, I will comply with all valid agreements with prior employers. 

 

	E.	INVENTIONS 

  

	 	1.	I will disclose promptly to the Company, in writing, all inventions, ideas, developments, materials and discoveries, including software products, which during the
period of my employment with the Company I have or which I may conceive, develop, make or reduce to practice, either solely or jointly with others (collectively “make or made”) whether patented, the subject of a patent application,
patentable or not, including but not limited to processes, methods, formulae, software, techniques, as well as improvements thereof or know-how related thereto, that: 

 

	 	a.	relate to any subject matter with which my work for the Company may relate or be concerned, whether or not made during normal business hours; or

  

	 	b.	relate to, or are connected with the business, products or projects of the company; or 

 

	 	c.	involve the use of the Company’s time, material, facilities or proprietary information. 

The foregoing are collectively referred to herein as the “Inventions”. Any inventions, ideas, developments, materials and
discoveries, including software products, in which I retain ownership or an interest, which I make or made before or during my employment by the Company and whose subject matter would otherwise make it an Invention, but which is not an Invention for
whatever reason, are collectively referred to herein as the “Employee Owned Inventions”. 
  

	 	2.	I will keep complete and current written records of all Inventions I make during the period of time I am employed by Company properly witnessed for use as Invention
records and to submit such records to Company when requested or upon termination of my employment with Company. 

  

	 	3.	I agree that all Inventions which I make during the period of time I am employed by Company are the sole and exclusive property of Company and I will assign, and do
hereby assign, my entire right, title and interest in such Inventions to Company. Company’s ownership and the foregoing assignment shall apply, without limitation, to all rights under the patent, copyright, and trade secret laws of any
jurisdiction relating to the Inventions. 

  

	 	4.	If for any reason under any law of any jurisdiction, including without limitation Section 2870 of the Labor Code of the State of California, all or any portion of
the foregoing grant of rights is held unenforceable, I agree to grant, and do hereby grant to the Company, a worldwide, irrevocable, fully paid up right and license in perpetuity with the right to sublicense others, to practice the Invention and to
make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of, without restriction, any products incorporating the Invention. 

  

	 	5.	At all times during and after my employment by the Company, and at no expense to me, I agree to execute and deliver such assignments, affidavits, oaths and other
documents, and to perform such other acts (including appearance as a witness in any contest) as may be requested by the Company to obtain or uphold, for the benefit of the Company, patents and/or copyrights in any and all countries for all
Inventions, whether or not I am an inventor thereof, said Inventions to be and remain the property of the Company or its nominees. In the event that the Company is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure my signature to any document reasonably
necessary or appropriate for any of the foregoing purposes (including renewals, extensions, continuations, divisions or continuations in part) in a timely manner, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company and its duly authorized
officers and agents as my agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for me and on my behalf, but only for the purpose of executing and filing any such document and doing all other lawfully permitted acts to accomplish the foregoing purposes with the same
legal force and effect as if executed by me. 

  

	 	6.	I agree to abide by the foregoing provisions in all respects; specifically, that I will not withhold Inventions conceived or reduced to practice during employment for
my own use after employment, that I will not impart to subsequent employers any Confidential Information or trade secrets, and that I will not induce or encourage other employees of the Company to violate the terms of their Employment Agreements.

					
	 7.      Are you the inventor of any published and/or issued patent applications?
(Check One)
	  	Yes	  	
		  		  	  

		  	No	  	
		  		  	  

			
	 8.      Are you the inventor of any unissued and unpublished patent applications?
(Check One)
	  	Yes

	 	9.	I agree that should a situation arise in which I believe that my job duties may lead to the use of technology claimed or sought to be claimed in a patent issued to or
applied for or under preparation naming me as an inventor, or of which I am otherwise aware, I will notify my supervisor and the legal department immediately. I understand that patent applications that are unissued and unpublished may be trade
secrets, and agree to abide by all provisions in Section D in notifying my supervisor and the legal department. 

  

	 	10.	I agree that if the Company incorporates into a product, process, a machine or otherwise uses an Employee Owned Invention, I agree to grant, and do hereby grant to the
Company, a royalty-free, worldwide, irrevocable, fully paid up right and license in perpetuity, to practice the Employee Owned Invention and to make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any products incorporating the
Employee Owned Invention, without restriction, to the extent of my ownership or interest. This license is transferable in whole or in part with the sale of all or substantially all of the business or the assets of the business to which the Employee
Owned Invention relates. 

  

	F.	MISCELLANEOUS 

  

	 	1.	Injunctive Relief. Because my breach of this Agreement may cause the Company irreparable harm which cannot adequately be compensated with money, I agree that the
Company will be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement, in addition to damages and other available remedies. 

  

	 	2.	Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by both parties. This Agreement shall be binding on the heirs, executors,
administrators, and other legal representatives and assigns of Employee, and is for the benefit of the Company and its successors and assigns. 

  

	 	3.	Governing Law. This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. 

 

	 	4.	Severability. If a court finds any provision of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance, the remainder of this Agreement shall be
interpreted so as best to effect the intent of the parties. The parties further agree that any provision found to be invalid or unenforceable shall be replaced with a provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the purpose of the void or
unenforceable provision. 

	 	5.	Entire Understanding. This Agreement expresses the entire understanding of the parties about the described subject matter.

	Witness:	 	/s/ Paul D. DelvaExecutive Severance Policy

 Exhibit 10.2 
 EXECUTIVE SEVERANCE POLICY 
  

	 Eligibility  
	Executives (1) in job grades 6 (Director) to 1 (President) who (2) are designated by the CEO, or by the VP-HR with the CEO’s approval, as participants in this policy and who
(3) agree to be bound by all of the restrictions, conditions and limitations under the policy, will be entitled to severance payments and other benefits under this policy. Participation or cessation of participation by a Section 16 officer
will require the approval of the compensation committee. 

  

	 Severance Benefit  
	Participating executives whose employment is terminated by the company for any reason other than “Cause” (as defined below) will be paid the greater of (1) the amount due under
the company’s basic severance policy or (2) the amount set forth below corresponding to the executive’s job grade at the time of termination, in a lump sum within 10 business days following the effective date of termination,
provided, that, as a condition to receiving such severance payment, the participating executive shall be required to execute a release of all claims arising out of the executive’s employment or the termination thereof, including without
limitation any claim of discrimination under U.S. state or federal law or any non-U.S. law, but excluding claims for indemnification from the company under any indemnification agreement with the company, its certificate of incorporation or bylaws,
or claims under applicable directors’ and officers’ insurance policies. 

  

			
	 Job Grade-Rank
	 	 Benefit (as multiples of
 monthly base salary)

	Section 16 Officers	 	12 months
	1-President	 	15 months
	2-Executive Vice President	 	12 months
	3-Senior Vice President	 	12 months
	4-Vice President	 	9 months
	5-Senior Director	 	9 months
	6-Director	 	9 months

  

	 	Amounts paid under this provision will be net of (i.e., will include) any severance or other payments required to be paid pursuant to applicable law or regulation.

  

	 	Termination of employment by the executive for any reason will not entitle the executive to any benefits under this policy. 

 

	 Medical Benefit  
	Participating executives will receive company-paid COBRA (or other applicable) medical coverage for themselves and eligible dependents for the time period corresponding to the job grade at
termination set forth above. 

  

	 “Cause”  
	“Cause” under this policy means that the executive has: 

  

	 	(i)	willfully breached or habitually neglected the duties of the executive’s position with the company, including but not limited to any fiduciary duty owed to the
company or its stockholders, or 

	 	(ii)	committed act(s) of dishonesty, malfeasance, misappropriation of the company’s property, willful misconduct, fraud, embezzlement, bad faith, misrepresentation, or
other act(s) of moral turpitude that would prevent the effective performance of the executive’s duties to the company or resulted in the executive’s personal profit, or 

 

	 	(iii)	engaged in any act or omission in the course of the executive’s employment with the company that materially injured the business or reputation of the company.

  

	 Successors  
	The company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect and whether by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, liquidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the
company’s business or assets, to assume the obligations of the company under this policy and to agree expressly to perform the obligations under this policy for the express benefit of executives then participating in the policy, in the same
manner and to the same extent as the company would be required to perform it in the absence of a succession. The company’s failure to obtain such agreement prior to the effectiveness of a succession shall be treated, as to each such
participating executive, as the termination of such executive’s employment without Cause and shall entitle each such executive to all of the compensation and benefits to which the executive would have been entitled under this policy if the
company had terminated the executive’s employment for any reason other than Cause, on the date when such succession becomes effective. For all purposes under this policy, the term “company” shall include any successor to the
company’s business or assets that executes and delivers the assumption agreement described in this paragraph, or that becomes bound by this policy by operation of law. 

 

	 Non-Compete; Non-Solicit 
	To receive benefits under the policy, participating executives must agree, in a form suitable to the company (1) not to compete with the company for the period of their employment and for
12 months thereafter (except in California or other jurisdictions where non-competes are unenforceable) and (2) not to solicit for employment during the period of employment and for 12 months thereafter any employee of the company.

  

	 Right to Amend  
	The company will have the right to amend the policy to reduce, modify or eliminate the severance benefit or other terms and conditions of the policy in the company’s sole discretion, but
not following a Change of Control (as defined under the Fairchild Semiconductor 2007 Stock Plan) and provided that such modification affects all similarly situated participants equally. 

 

	 Binding Effect  
	Subject to the company’s right to amend before a Change of Control, as described above, this policy is legally binding on the company and its successors, including any acquiring or
successor company (whether by the purchase or stock, assets or by operation of law). This policy will be effective only to the extent permitted by applicable law or regulation.
