      Illinois, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law
      provision or rule (whether of the State of Illinois or any other jurisdictions)
      that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than
      the
      State of Illinois. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive
      jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Chicago,

      agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is
      not
      personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action
      or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such
      suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives
      personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such
      suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the
      address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service
      shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.
      Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve
      process in any manner permitted by law. EACH
      PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE, AND AGREES NOT TO
      REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN
      CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION
      CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

      or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or
      the
      validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other
      jurisdiction.

	II.	AGREEMENT 

 1. Grant of Option. The
Company hereby grants to the Optionee named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Optionee”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase the number of shares (the “Shares”) set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant,
at the exercise price per Share set 

 
forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Exercise Price”), and subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, which are incorporated
herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail. 
 2. Vesting. 
 (a)
Vesting Schedule. Except as may otherwise be set forth in this Option Agreement or in the Plan, Options awarded to an Optionee shall not vest until the Optionee (i) satisfies the performance-based vesting criteria (“Performance
Objective”), if any, applicable to such Options and (ii) continues to be actively employed with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary for the periods required to satisfy the time-based vesting criteria (“Time-Based Vesting
Criteria”) applicable to such Options. The Performance Objective and Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to an Option are collectively referred to as “Vesting Conditions,” and the earliest date upon which all Vesting Conditions are
satisfied is referred to as the “Vesting Date.” The Vesting Conditions for an Option received by an Optionee shall be established by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) (or by one or more members of Company management,
if such power has been delegated in accordance with the Plan and applicable law) and reflected in the account maintained for the Optionee by an external third party administrator of the Option awards. Further, during any approved leave of absence,
the Committee shall have discretion to provide that the vesting of the Options shall be frozen as of the first day of the leave and shall not resume until and unless the Optionee returns to active employment prior to the Expiration Date of the
Options. 
 (b) Performance Objective. The Committee shall determine whether the Performance Objective applicable to an
Option has been met, and such determination shall be final and conclusive. Until the Committee has made such a determination, the Performance Objective may not be considered to have been satisfied. Notwithstanding any determination by the Committee
that the Performance Objective has been attained with respect to particular Options, such Options shall not be considered to have vested unless and until the Optionee has satisfied the Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to such Options.

 (c) Age 65. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Time-Based Vesting Criteria applicable to all Options held by an
Optionee shall be deemed 100% satisfied upon the Optionee’s attainment of age 65; provided that such Options shall remain subject to any applicable Performance Objective that remains unsatisfied as of such date. 
 3. Exercise of Option. 
 (a) Right to Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and with the applicable provisions of the Plan and this Option Agreement.

 (b) Method and Time of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by any method made available from time to time by
the external third party administrator of the Option awards. An exercise may be made with respect to whole Shares only, and not for a fraction of a Share. 
  

 2 

 Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless the issuance and delivery of such Shares
comply with (or are exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock
exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be traded. The Committee may require the Optionee to take any reasonable action in order to comply with any such rules or regulations. Assuming such compliance, for
income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares. 
 (c) Acknowledgment of Potential Securities Law Restrictions. Unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covers the Shares issued upon exercise of an Option, the Committee may require that the
Optionee agree in writing to acquire such Shares for investment and not for public resale or distribution, unless and until the Shares subject to the Award are registered under the Securities Act. The Committee may also require the Optionee to
acknowledge that he or she shall not sell or transfer such Shares except in compliance with all applicable laws, and may apply such other restrictions as it deems appropriate. The Optionee also acknowledges that the U.S. federal securities laws
prohibit trading in the stock of the Company by persons who are in possession of material, non-public information, and also acknowledges and understands the other restrictions set forth in the Company’s Insider Trading Policy. 
 4. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the
Optionee: 
 (a) cash, delivered to the external third party administrator of the Option awards in any methodology permitted
by such third party administrator; 
 (b) payment under a cashless exercise program approved by the Company or through a
broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee (i) shall provide written instructions to a licensed broker acceptable to the Company and acting as agent for the Optionee to effect the immediate sale of some or all of
the purchased Shares and to remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise Price payable for the purchased Shares and (ii) shall provide written direction to the
Company to deliver the purchased Shares directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or 
 (c)
surrender of other Shares which have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the exercised Shares.

 5. Termination of Employment. 
 (a) General. In the event the Optionee’s active employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary terminates for any reason (other than death or Retirement), all unvested Options shall be automatically
forfeited by the Optionee as of the date of termination. In the event the Optionee’s employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary terminates for any reason (other than death, Disability, Retirement or Gross Misconduct), the Optionee
shall have a period 

  

 3 

 
of three (3) months, commencing with the date the Optionee is no longer actively employed, to exercise the vested portion of any outstanding Options.

 (b) Death. Upon Optionee’s death, all unexpired options shall become fully exercisable and may be exercised for
a period of twelve (12) months thereafter by the personal representative of the Optionee’s estate or any other person to whom the Option is transferred under a will or under the applicable laws of descent and distribution. 
 (c) Disability. In the event the Optionee’s employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary terminates by reason of the
Optionee’s Disability, all unvested Options shall be automatically forfeited by the Optionee as of the date of termination and the Optionee shall have until the first anniversary of the Optionee’s termination of employment for Disability
to exercise the vested portion of any outstanding Options. 
 (d) Normal Retirement. In the event the Optionee
voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary at or after reaching age 65, and as of the date of the Optionee’s Normal Retirement the Optionee holds Options that remain subject to any Performance
Objective, the Options shall remain outstanding for up to the fifth anniversary of such date (or if earlier, up to the Expiration Date of the Option) to determine whether such conditions become satisfied (and if the Committee determines that the
Performance Objectives are satisfied within such period, the Options shall remain outstanding and may be exercised up until the fifth anniversary of the date of the Optionee’s Normal Retirement (or if earlier, up until the Expiration Date of
the Options)). In the event the Optionee voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary at or after reaching age 65, and as of the date of the Optionee’s Normal Retirement, the Optionee holds Options
that are not subject to any unsatisfied Performance Objective, the Options shall remain outstanding and may be exercised up until the fifth anniversary of such date (or if earlier, up until the Expiration Date of the Option). 
 (e) Early Retirement. In the event the Optionee voluntarily terminates his or her employment with the Company or an Eligible
Subsidiary prior to age 65 and the Committee determines that the cessation of Optionee’s employment constitutes Early Retirement, the Optionee’s unvested Options shall remain outstanding and shall continue to vest (as to both the
Performance Objective and Time-Based Vesting Criteria, as applicable) for a period of five (5) years following the date of the Optionee’s Retirement. 
 (f) Gross Misconduct. If the Optionee’s employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary is terminated for Gross
Misconduct, the Optionee’s unexercised Options shall terminate immediately as of the time of termination, without consideration. 
 (g) Violation of Post-Employment Covenant. To the extent that any of the Optionee’s Options remain outstanding under the terms of the Plan or this Option Agreement after termination of the Optionee’s
employment with the Company or an Eligible Subsidiary, such Options shall nevertheless expire as of the date the Optionee violates any covenant not to compete or other post-employment covenant that exists between the Optionee on the one hand and the
Company or any subsidiary of the Company, on the other hand. 
  

 4 

 (h) Substantial Corporate Change. Upon a Substantial Corporate Change, the
Optionee’s outstanding Options shall terminate unless provision is made for the assumption or substitution of such Options as provided in Section 16(b) of the Plan. 
 6. Non-Transferability of Option; Term of Option. 
 (a) Unless the Committee determines otherwise in advance in writing, this Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the
lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of the Plan and this Option Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs and permitted successors and assigns of the Optionee. 
 (b) This Option may be exercised only prior to the Expiration Date set out in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, and may be exercised
during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Option Agreement. 
 7. Amendment of Option or Plan. The Plan
and this Option Agreement constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and Optionee with respect to the subject
matter hereof. Optionee expressly warrants that he or she is not accepting this Option Agreement in reliance on any promises, representations, or inducements other than those contained herein. The Company’s Board may amend, modify or terminate
the Plan or any Option in any respect at any time; provided, however, that modifications to this Option Agreement or the Plan that adversely affect the Optionee’s rights hereunder can be made only in an express written contract signed by the
Company and the Optionee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or this Option Agreement, the Company reserves the right to revise this Option Agreement and Optionee’s rights under outstanding Options as it deems necessary or
advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Optionee, (1) upon a Substantial Corporate Change, (2) as required by law, or (3) to comply with Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”) or to otherwise
avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A in connection to this award of Options. 
 8. Tax
Obligations. 
 (a) Withholding Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary employing the
Optionee (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all federal, state, local or foreign income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax related items (“Tax Related Items”), the Optionee acknowledges
that the ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items associated with the Option is and remains the Optionee’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of
any Tax Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and
(ii) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate the Optionee’s liability for Tax Related Items.

 Prior to the relevant taxable event, Optionee shall pay or make adequate arrangements
satisfactory to the Company and/or the Employer (in its sole discretion) to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations for Tax Related Items of the Company and/or the Employer. In this regard, the Optionee authorizes the Company
and/or the Employer, in its sole discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax Related Items legally payable by the Optionee by one or a combination of the following: (i) require the Optionee to pay Tax-Related Items in cash
with a cashier’s check or certified check; (ii) withholding cash from the Optionee’s wages or other compensation payable to the Optionee by the Company and/or the Employer; (iii) accepting from the Optionee the delivery of
unencumbered Shares; (iv) withholding from the proceeds of a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure as described in Section 4(b) above; or (v) if permissible under local law, withholding in Shares otherwise issuable to the
Optionee, provided that the Company withholds only the amount of Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount using the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of the relevant taxable event. Optionee shall pay to the
Company or the Employer any amount of Tax Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan or the Optionee’s purchase of Shares that are not satisfied by any
of the means previously described. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will the Company and/or the Employer withhold more than the minimum amount of Tax Related Items required by law, nor shall any Optionee have the right to require the Company
and/or the Employer to withhold more than such amount. The Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to deliver the Shares to the Optionee if the Optionee fails to comply with Optionee’s obligations in connection with the Tax Related
Items as described in this Section. 
 (b) Code Section 409A. Payments made pursuant to this Plan and the Option
Agreement are intended to qualify for an exemption from or comply with Section 409A. Notwithstanding any provision in the Option Agreement, the Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole
discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify the Plan and/or this Option Agreement to ensure that all Options granted to Optionees who are United States taxpayers are made in such a manner that either qualifies for exemption from or complies with
Section 409A; provided, however, that the Company makes no representations that the Plan or the Options shall be exempt from or comply with Section 409A and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A from applying to the Plan or
any Options granted thereunder. 
 9. Rights as Shareholder. Until all requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to the terms
of this Option Agreement and the Plan have been satisfied, the Optionee shall not be deemed to be a shareholder or to have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to any Shares. 
 10. No Employment Contract. Nothing in the Plan or this Option Agreement constitutes an employment contract between the Company and the Optionee
and this Option Agreement shall not confer upon the Optionee any right to continuation of employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, nor shall this Option Agreement interfere in any way with the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries
right to terminate the Optionee’s employment at any time, with or without cause (subject to any employment agreement an Optionee may otherwise have with the Company or a Subsidiary thereof and/or applicable law).

 11. Board Authority. The Board and/or the Committee shall have the power to interpret this Option
Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Option Agreement as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether any
Options have vested). All interpretations and determinations made by the Board and/or the Committee in good faith shall be final and binding upon Optionee, the Company and all other interested persons and such determinations of the Board and/or the
Committee do not have to be uniform nor do they have to consider whether Optionees are similarly situated. No member of the Board and/or the Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with
respect to this Option Agreement. 
 12. Headings. The captions used in this Option Agreement and the Plan are inserted for
convenience and shall not be deemed to be a part of the Option for construction and interpretation. 
 13. Electronic Delivery.

 (a) If the Optionee executes this Option Agreement electronically, for the avoidance of doubt Optionee acknowledges and
agrees that his or her execution of this Option Agreement electronically (through an on-line system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company, or otherwise) shall have the same binding legal effect as
would execution of this Option Agreement in paper form. Optionee acknowledges that upon request of the Company he or she shall also provide an executed, paper form of this Option Agreement. 
 (b) If the Optionee executes this Option Agreement in paper form, for the avoidance of doubt the parties acknowledge and agree that it is
their intent that any agreement previously or subsequently entered into between the parties that is executed electronically shall have the same binding legal effect as if such agreement were executed in paper form. 
 (c) If Optionee executes this Option Agreement multiple times (for example, if the Optionee first executes this Option Agreement in
electronic form and subsequently executes the Option Agreement in paper form), the Optionee acknowledges and agrees that (i) no matter how many versions of this Option Agreement are executed and in whatever medium, this Option Agreement only
evidences a single Option relating to the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and (ii) this Option Agreement shall be effective as of the earliest execution of this Option Agreement by the parties, whether in paper
form or electronically, and the subsequent execution of this Option Agreement in the same or a different medium shall in no way impair the binding legal effect of this Option Agreement as of the time of original execution. 
 (d) The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver by electronic means any documents related to the Option, to participation
in the Plan, or to future awards granted under the Plan, or otherwise required to be delivered to the Optionee pursuant to the Plan or under applicable law, including but not limited to, the Plan, the Option Agreement, the Plan prospectus and any
reports of the Company generally provided to shareholders. Such means of electronic delivery may include, but do not necessarily include, the delivery of a link to the 

  

 7 

 
Company’s intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of documents via electronic mail
(“e-mail”) or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company. By executing this Option Agreement, the Optionee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery. At the Optionee’s written request to
the Secretary of the Company, the Company shall provide a paper copy of any document at no cost to the Optionee. 
 14.
Data Privacy. Optionee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of his or her Data (as defined below) by and among, as necessary and applicable, the Employer, the Company
and its Subsidiaries for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Optionee’s participation in the Plan and in the Company’s Amended and Restated 1998 Stock Option Plan (the “1998 Plan”).

 Optionee understands that the Company and the Employer may hold certain personal information about Optionee,
including, but not limited to, Optionee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security or insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, and job title, any Common Stock or directorships held in
the Company, and details of the Option or any other option or other entitlement to Shares, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Optionee’s favor, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan and/or the
1998 Plan (“Data”). Optionee understands that Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan and/or the 1998 Plan, that these recipients may be located in
Optionee’s country or elsewhere, and that the recipients’ country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Optionee’s country. Optionee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data,
in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing Optionee’s participation in the Plan and/or in the 1998 Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to a broker or other third
party with whom Optionee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option or any other option or other entitlement to Shares. 
 Optionee understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting his or her local human resources representative. Optionee understands
that Data shall be held as long as is reasonably necessary to implement, administer and manage his or her participation in the Plan and/or the 1998 Plan, and he or she may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and
processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing his or her local human resources representative. Optionee understands, however, that refusing
or withdrawing such consent may affect his or her ability to participate in the Plan and/or the 1998 Plan. In addition, Optionee understands that the Company and its Subsidiaries have separately implemented procedures for the handling of Data which
the Company believes permits the Company to use the Data in the manner set forth above notwithstanding Optionee’s withdrawal of such consent. For more information on the 

  

 8 

 
consequences of refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, Optionee understands that he or she may contact his or her local human resources
representative. 
 15. Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. Each party, to the fullest extent permitted by law, waives any right or
expectation against the other to trial or adjudication by a jury of any claim, cause or action arising with respect to the Option or hereunder, or the rights, duties or liabilities created hereby. 
 16. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision of this Option Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be
severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Option Agreement. 
 17. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Delaware (other than its choice of law provisions) shall govern this Option Agreement and its interpretation. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises with
respect to this Option, this Option Agreement or the Plan, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of New Castle County, or the federal courts
for the United States for the District of Delaware, where this grant is made and/or to be performed. 
 Optionee acknowledges receipt
of a copy of the Plan and the prospectus relating thereto; represents that he or she has read and is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof and has had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing this Option Agreement
and fully understands all provisions of the Option Agreement and the Plan; and hereby accepts this Option subject to all of the terms and provisions thereof. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or
interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under the Plan or this Option Agreement. Optionee further agrees to notify the Company upon any change in his or her residence address.
