 “Notwithstanding anything under this Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, to the extent an Award granted hereunder constitutes
“deferred compensation” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”)), such Award shall not be paid or settled upon a Change in Control, unless such Change in Control also qualifies as a
change in the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of the Company, within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A(2)(A)(v).” 
 4. Section 15 is amended to add the following proviso to the end thereof: 
 “; provided, however, that no such substitution or adjustment shall be required if the Committee determines that such action would

be paid or provided

 8. Other Provisions Unaffected. Except as modified by this Amendment, the existing provisions of the Plan and Award Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect.
