Directors' Equity Capital Accumulation Plan as amended

 Exhibit 10.2 
 MORGAN STANLEY 
 DIRECTORS’ EQUITY CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PLAN 
 (as amended through December 11, 2007) 
 Section 1. Purpose 
 Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby adopts the Morgan
Stanley Directors’ Equity Capital Accumulation Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and financial success of the Company by attracting, motivating and retaining non-employee directors of
outstanding ability and assisting the Company in promoting a greater identity of interest between the Company’s non-employee directors and its stockholders. 
 Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings ascribed thereto in Section 22. 
 Section 2.
Eligibility 
 Only directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company or any affiliate of the Company (the “Eligible
Directors”) shall participate in the Plan. 
 Section 3. Plan Operation 
 (a) Administration. Other than as provided in Section 5(c)(v), the Plan requires no discretionary action by any administrative body with
regard to any transaction under the Plan. To the extent, if any, that questions of administration arise, these shall be resolved by the Board. The Board may, in its discretion, delegate to the Chief Financial Officer, the Chief Legal Officer, the
Secretary of the Company or to one or more officers of the Company any or all authority and responsibility to act pursuant to the Plan. All references to the “Plan Administrators” in the Plan shall refer to the Board, or the Chief
Financial Officer, the Chief Legal Officer, the Secretary or to one or more officers of the Company if the Board has delegated its authority pursuant to this Section 3(a). The determination of the Plan Administrators on all matters within their
authority relating to the Plan shall be conclusive. 
 (b) No Liability. The Plan Administrators shall not be liable for any action or
determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any award hereunder, and the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Plan Administrators from all losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from the
assertion or judicial determination of any such liability. 
 Section 4. Shares of Stock Subject to the Plan 
 (a) Stock. Awards under the Plan shall relate to shares of Stock. 
 (b) Shares Available for Awards. Subject to Section 4(c) (relating to adjustments upon changes in capitalization), as of any date, the total number of shares of Stock with respect 

 
to which awards may be granted under the Plan shall be equal to the excess (if any) of (i) 1,700,000 shares over (ii) the sum of (a) the
number of shares subject to outstanding awards granted under the Plan and (b) the number of shares previously issued pursuant to the Plan. In accordance with (and without limitation upon) the preceding sentence, shares of Stock covered by
awards granted under the Plan that are canceled or expire unexercised shall again become available for awards under the Plan. Shares of Stock that shall be issuable pursuant to the awards granted under the Plan shall be authorized and unissued
shares, treasury shares or shares of Stock purchased by, or on behalf of, the Company in open-market transactions. 
 (c) Adjustments.
In the event of any merger, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, sale or other distribution of substantially all of the assets of the Company, any stock dividend, split, spin-off, split-up, split-off, distribution of cash, securities or
other property by the Company, or other change in the Company’s corporate structure affecting the Stock, then the following shall be automatically adjusted in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits
intended to be awarded under the Plan: 
 (i) the aggregate number of shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan,

 (ii) the number of shares of Stock subject to outstanding awards, 
 (iii) the number of Stock Units credited pursuant to Sections 6(a) and 7(a) of the Plan, 
 (iv) the per share purchase price of Stock subject to any stock options granted pursuant to the Plan, and 
 (v) the number of shares to be granted as Director Stock pursuant to Section 6(a) or to be granted pursuant to any other automatic
awards that may be provided for under the Plan in the future. 
 (d) Types of Award. The Company’s stockholders originally
approved the Plan on April 19, 1996, and approved amendments to the Plan on March 19, 2002. The types of award authorized by the stockholders under the Plan are Director Stock, Stock Units, shares of Stock awarded at an Eligible
Director’s election pursuant to Section 8 and stock options. 
 Section 5. Stock Options 
 (a) Effective as of February 8, 2005 (the “Transition Date”), no additional stock options will be awarded under the Plan.

 (b) Section 5(a) shall not impair the rights of any person in any stock option that was awarded under the Plan prior to the
Transition Date. All such stock options shall remain subject to the terms and conditions applicable thereto. 
 (c) The following terms and
conditions apply to stock options issued under the Plan, including without limitation all stock options issued prior to the Transition Date: 
 (i) Nontransferability. No stock option granted pursuant to the Plan shall be sold, assigned or otherwise transferred by an Eligible Director other than by will or the laws of descent or distribution and any
such stock option may be exercised during the Eligible Director’s lifetime only by such Eligible Director. 
  

 2 

 (ii) Limitation on Exercise. No stock option granted pursuant to this Plan may be
exercised for a period of six (6) months from the date such stock option was granted. 
 (iii) Effect of
Termination. 
 (A) If an Eligible Director’s service as a director of the Company terminates for a reason other
than for Cause, then any stock option granted to such Eligible Director shall remain exercisable following the date of such Eligible Director’s termination of service in accordance with the following provisions: 
 (a) Disability, Normal Retirement or Death. If service terminates by reason of Disability, Normal Retirement or death, until the
expiration date of the stock option. 
 (b) Other. If service terminates for any other reason (except for Cause), until the
earlier of 90 days after the termination date and the expiration date of the stock option. 
 (B) If an Eligible Director is
terminated for Cause, all stock options granted under the Plan to such Eligible Director shall be canceled and shall no longer be exercisable, effective on the date of such Eligible Director’s termination for Cause. 
 (iv) Expiration Date of Stock Options. All stock options granted under the Plan shall expire on the tenth anniversary of the date
on which they are granted. 
 (v) Extension of Exercisability. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Board
shall have the authority, in its discretion, to amend any outstanding stock option granted pursuant to the Plan to extend the exercisability thereof; provided, however, that no such amendment shall cause such stock
option to remain exercisable beyond its original expiration date. 
 (d) Notwithstanding Section 5(a), stock options remain one of the
types of award that the stockholders of the Company have authorized for the Plan, and Section 5(a) shall not impair the authority of the Board under Section 13 to amend the Plan in the future to provide for awards of stock options without
obtaining additional stockholder approval.

 Section 6. Initial and Annual Awards of Director Stock and Stock Units 
 (a) Awards Granted. 
 (i) Initial Awards. On the first day of the calendar month following the month in which any person (other than a person who is already an Eligible Director) becomes an Eligible Director, otherwise than by reason of being elected to
the Board at an Annual Meeting, (A) such Eligible Director shall be entitled to receive a number of shares of Director Stock equal to the number obtained by dividing $125,000 by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such day and
(B) the Company shall credit an equal number of Initial Stock Units, representing the other half of the initial equity award, to such Eligible Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account; provided, however, that if such a person
is elected, appointed or otherwise becomes an Eligible Director less than 60 days prior to the Annual Meeting in any year, then such Eligible Director shall receive no shares of Director Stock and no Initial Stock Units shall be credited to such
Eligible Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account pursuant to this Section 6(a)(i). 
 (ii) Subsequent Awards.
As of the date of each Annual Meeting, (A) each Eligible Director, including, without limitation, any Eligible Director who becomes a member of the Board by reason of being elected to the Board at such Annual Meeting, shall be entitled to
receive a number of shares of Director Stock equal to the number obtained by dividing $125,000 by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such day and (B) the Company shall credit an equal number of Annual Stock Units, representing the
other half of the annual equity award, to the Mandatory Stock Unit Account of each Eligible Director; provided, however, that such Eligible Director shall continue to serve as a director of the Company after such Annual Meeting.

 (b) Limitation on Transfer. Director Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed by an Eligible
Director for a period of six (6) months from the date such Stock is awarded. Neither Annual Stock Units nor Initial Stock Units may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed by an Eligible Director until distributed in
accordance with Section 7 or Section 9. 
 (c) Deferral of Awards. Annual Stock Units and Initial Stock Units credited to
the Mandatory Stock Unit Account of each Eligible Director shall be deferred in accordance with Section 7(b). An Eligible Director may elect to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the Director Stock by making an election pursuant to
Section 7(a), in which case there shall be credited to the Eligible Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account a number of Elective Stock Units equal to the number of shares of Director Stock being deferred. 
 Section 7. Deferral Elections and Distributions 
 (a) Elective Stock Unit Account and Cash Account Deferral Elections. Each Eligible Director may make a Deferral Election to defer receipt of (i) all or part of any or all of such Eligible Director’s Retainers or
(ii) any or all shares of Director Stock. An Eligible Director may make a Deferral Election with respect to all or part of any or all Retainers or shares 

  

 4 

 
of Director Stock by submitting a Deferral Election Form to the Secretary, indicating: (i) the Deferred Amount or a percentage of such Retainer or
shares of Director Stock to be deferred; (ii) the Distribution Commencement Date, in accordance with Section 7(c); (iii) whether distributions are to be made in a lump sum, installments or a combination thereof, in accordance with
Section 7(e); (iv) the percentage or amount of (x) Retainers to be deferred and credited to a Cash Account or (y) Retainers and/or Director Stock to be deferred and credited to the Elective Stock Unit Account; and (v) from
which Account each distribution is to be made on each Distribution Commencement Date. Deferral Election Forms must be submitted before the start of the fiscal year during which the Eligible Director will earn such Retainer or shares of Director
Stock to be deferred; provided, however, that in the case of an Eligible Director who is newly elected or appointed to the Board, such Eligible Director’s Deferral Election Form relating to the Retainer or
shares of Director Stock earned during the fiscal year of such election or appointment may be submitted within 30 days after the date of such election or appointment. In all cases, a Deferral Election Form shall be effective only with respect to
such Retainers or shares of Director Stock that are earned after the Deferral Election is made. All Deferral Elections (including indications on the Deferral Election Form as to Distribution Commencement Date and form of distributions), once made,
shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Deferral Election may be superseded with respect to future deferrals of an Eligible Director’s Retainers and grants of Director Stock by submitting a new Deferral Election Form to the
Secretary, in which case such new Deferral Election shall be effective starting with the Retainer or shares of Director Stock earned in the fiscal year following the year in which such new Deferral Election Form is submitted. An Eligible Director
may designate, in any Deferral Election Form, one or more beneficiaries to receive any distributions under the Plan upon the Eligible Director’s death, and may change such designation at any time by submitting a new Deferral Election Form to
the Secretary. 
 (i) Stock Unit Deferral. An Eligible Director may elect to have all or part of the Deferred Amount
credited to an Elective Stock Unit Account in the form of Elective Stock Units. Credits to an Eligible Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account will be made as follows: 
 (A) Deferral of Retainers. As of each Retainer Payment Date, the Company shall credit to the Elective Stock Unit Account an amount
equal to any Deferred Amount resulting from an Eligible Director’s deferral of all or part of such Eligible Director’s Retainers. The number of Elective Stock Units credited to the Elective Stock Unit Account shall be the amount obtained
by dividing (X) the Deferred Amount by (Y) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Retainer Payment Date. 
 (B) Deferral of Director Stock. An Eligible Director who defers the receipt of Director Stock shall have credited to the Elective Stock Unit Account a number of Elective Stock Units equal to the number of shares of Director Stock
deferred. The credit will be made as of the date on which the Eligible Director becomes entitled to receive the Director Stock. 
 (ii) Cash Deferral. An Eligible Director may elect to have all or part of the Deferred Amount derived from his or her Retainers credited to a Cash Account. 

  

 5 

 
The Deferred Amount allocated to the Cash Account shall be credited thereto on the date on which the Eligible Director becomes entitled to payment of such
Deferred Amount. As of the last day of each fiscal quarter and the Eligible Director’s Service Termination Date, the Eligible Director’s Cash Account will be credited with an Interest Equivalent equal to (i) the Rate of Interest,
multiplied by (ii) the Average Daily Cash Balance, multiplied by (iii) the number of days during the fiscal quarter or other period during which such Cash Account had a positive balance, divided by (iv) 365. 
 (b) Mandatory Stock Unit Account Deferral Elections. An Eligible Director may elect to defer receipt of Annual Stock Units and Initial Stock Units
by submitting a Deferral Election Form to the Secretary indicating: (i) the Distribution Commencement Date for such Mandatory Stock Unit Account, in accordance with Section 7(d) and (ii) whether distributions are to be made in a lump
sum, installments or a combination thereof, in accordance with Section 7(e). Deferral Election Forms must be submitted prior to the first day of the fiscal year during which the Eligible Director will earn the Annual Stock Units and Initial
Stock Units to be deferred; provided, however, that in the case of an Eligible Director who is newly elected or appointed to the Board, such Eligible Director’s Deferral Election Form relating to the Annual Stock Units
and/or Initial Stock Units earned during the fiscal year of such election or appointment may be submitted within 30 days after the date of such election or appointment. In all cases, a Deferral Election Form shall be effective only with respect to
the Annual Stock Units and Initial Stock Units that are earned after the Deferral Election is made. All Deferral Elections with respect to any Annual Stock Units and Initial Stock Units, once made, shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a Deferral Election relating to Annual Stock Units may be superseded with respect to future deferrals of an Eligible Director’s Annual Stock Units by submitting a new Deferral Election Form to the Secretary, in which case such new
Deferral Election shall be effective starting with the Annual Stock Units earned in the fiscal year following the year in which such new Deferral Election Form is submitted. An Eligible Director may designate, in any Deferral Election Form, one or
more beneficiaries to receive any distributions under the Plan upon the Eligible Director’s death, and may change such designation at any time by submitting a new Deferral Election Form to the Secretary. 
 (c) Distribution Commencement Date for Elective Stock Unit Account and Cash Account. Each Eligible Director shall designate on the Deferral
Election Form one of the following dates as a Distribution Commencement Date with respect to amounts credited to the Elective Stock Unit Account or Cash Account thereafter: (A) the date of such Eligible Director’s death; (B) such
Eligible Director’s Service Termination Date; (C) the first day of a calendar month specified by such Eligible Director; or (D) the earliest to occur of (A), (B) or (C). If an Eligible Director fails to designate one of the
foregoing alternatives as the Distribution Commencement Date for the Elective Stock Unit Account and Cash Account, the Eligible Director shall be deemed to have designated alternative (D). Unless a Deferral Election Form designates a different
Distribution Commencement Date for the Eligible Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account than for such Eligible Director’s Cash Account, the Eligible Director shall be deemed to have selected the same Distribution Commencement Date for both
Accounts. Notwithstanding any election made by an Eligible Director on any Deferral Election Form or any other provision of the Plan, in the event of such Eligible Director’s death, all amounts credited to such Eligible Director’s Elective
Stock Unit Account and Cash Account will be paid in a lump 

  

 6 

 
sum to such Eligible Director’s beneficiary (or if no beneficiary has been designated, to such Eligible Director’s estate) as soon as
administratively practicable following the date of such Eligible Director’s death. 
 (d) Distribution Commencement Date for
Mandatory Stock Unit Account. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Plan or any Deferral Election Form, no amounts credited to an Eligible Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account shall be distributed prior to such Eligible
Director’s Service Termination Date. Each Eligible Director may designate on the Deferral Election Form for such Eligible Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account one of the following dates as a Distribution Commencement Date with respect
to amounts credited to the Mandatory Stock Unit Account: (A) the date of such Eligible Director’s death; (B) such Eligible Director’s Service Termination Date; or (C) the later to occur of (B) or first day of a calendar
month specified by such Eligible Director. If an Eligible Director fails to designate one of the foregoing alternatives as the Distribution Commencement Date for the Mandatory Stock Unit Account, such Eligible Director shall be deemed to have
designated alternative (B). Notwithstanding any election made by an Eligible Director on any Deferral Election Form or any other provision of the Plan, in the event of such Eligible Director’s death, all amounts credited to such Eligible
Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account will be paid in a lump sum to such Eligible Director’s beneficiary (or if no beneficiary has been designated, to such Eligible Director’s estate) as soon as administratively practicable
following the date of such Eligible Director’s death. 
 (e) Distribution Method. An Eligible Director shall state on each
Deferral Election Form whether distributions that are subject to such Deferral Election Form shall be made in (A) a lump sum, (B) no more than 120 monthly, 40 quarterly or 10 annual installments or (C) in part as provided in
clause (A) and in part as provided in clause (B); provided, however, that any distributions following an Eligible Director’s death shall be paid in a lump sum to such Eligible Director’s beneficiary (or if no
beneficiary has been designated, to such Eligible Director’s estate) as soon as administratively practicable following the date of such Eligible Director’s death. The amount to be distributed in any installment pursuant to a specific
Deferral Election Form shall be determined by dividing the balance in the Cash Account or the number of Stock Units in the Mandatory Stock Unit Account or Elective Stock Unit Account, as the case may be, that are subject to such Deferral Election
Form by the number of remaining installments. If an Eligible Director receives a distribution on an installment basis, undistributed Deferred Amounts shall remain subject to the provisions of this Section 7. 
 (f) Form of Distributions. All distributions from the Cash Account shall be paid in cash. Distributions made from the Elective Stock Unit Account
and the Mandatory Stock Unit Account shall be for a number of whole shares of Stock equal to the number of whole Stock Units to be distributed and cash in lieu of any fractional share (determined by using the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on
the date on which such distributions are distributed). 
 (g) Dividend Equivalents. If there are Stock Units in an Eligible
Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account or Mandatory Stock Unit Account on a dividend record date with respect to the Company’s Stock, the Elective Stock Unit Account and/or Mandatory Stock Unit Account, as applicable, shall be credited, on
the dividend payment date for such dividend record date, with an additional number of Stock Units equal to (i) the cash dividend paid on one share of Stock, multiplied by (ii) the number of Stock Units in such Account on such dividend
record date, divided by (iii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date. 
  

 7 

 (h) Deferral of Meeting Fees. As of the Transition Date, the Company does not pay Meeting Fees. In
the event that the Company determines in the future to pay Meeting Fees to Eligible Directors, and in the case of Meeting Fees deferred prior to the Transition Date, the provision of this Section 7 relating to elective deferrals of Retainers
and Director Stock, and the provisions of Section 8 relating to Stock Elections, shall apply to such Meeting Fees mutatis mutandis; provided, however, that any Deferred Amount resulting from
deferral of all or part of an Eligible Director’s Meeting Fees (other than Meeting Fees for meetings of the Board or any committee thereof held on the date of an Annual Meeting) will initially be credited to the Cash Account as of the date on
which the Eligible Director becomes entitled to payment of the Meeting Fees, shall thereafter be credited with Interest Equivalents as calculated under Section 7(a)(ii) (such Deferred Amount as increased by such Interest Equivalents being the
“Adjusted Deferred Amount”) and will thereafter be debited from the Cash Account and credited to the Eligible Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account as of the date of the next Annual Meeting following the date of such meeting
(or, if the Eligible Director’s service on the Board terminates prior to the next Annual Meeting following the date of such meeting, as of the first business day following his or her Service Termination Date), with the number of Stock Units
credited to the Elective Stock Unit Account being the amount obtained by dividing (i) the relevant Adjusted Deferred Amount by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of such Annual Meeting or the Service Termination
Date, as applicable. 
 Section 8. Election to Receive Stock 
 (a) Election. An Eligible Director may make a Stock Election to receive all or part of any or all of such Eligible Director’s Retainers in shares of Stock by submitting a Stock Election Form to the
Secretary indicating the Stock Amount. A Stock Election Form shall be effective only with respect to Retainers payable after the date on which the Secretary receives the Stock Election Form. Each Stock Election, once made, shall be irrevocable.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Stock Election may be superseded with respect to future payments of an Eligible Director’s Retainers by submitting a new Stock Election Form to the Secretary. 
 (b) Payment in Stock. As of each Retainer Payment Date, an Eligible Director who has made a Stock Election will receive, in lieu of the Retainer
elected to be received in Stock, a whole number of shares of Stock (but not fractional shares) determined by dividing: 
 (i)
the amount of the Retainer that is payable to the Eligible Director on the applicable Retainer Payment Date and is subject to a Stock Election; by 
 (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Retainer Payment Date. 
 In no circumstances shall an Eligible
Director be entitled to receive, or shall the Company have any obligation to issue to the Eligible Director, any fractional share of Stock. In lieu of any fractional share of Stock, the Eligible Director shall be entitled to receive, and the Company
shall be obligated to pay to such Eligible Director, cash equal to the value of any fractional share of Stock (determined by using the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Retainer Payment Date). 
  

 8 

 Section 9. Governmental Service 
 (a) Governmental Service Resignation. Notwithstanding any election made by an Eligible Director on any Deferral Form, if an Eligible Director resigns as a director of the Company as a result of accepting
employment at a governmental department or agency, self-regulatory agency or other public service employer (a “Governmental Employer”) (such resignation is referred to herein as a “Governmental Service Resignation”), then
(i) if the Eligible Director provides the Company with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a result of such employment, the divestiture of his or her continued interest in Company equity awards or continued ownership of Stock is
reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of U.S. federal, state or local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of interest law applicable to the Eligible Director at such Governmental Employer, all amounts credited to the Eligible Director’s
Elective Stock Unit Account and Mandatory Stock Unit Account will be distributed in a lump sum in accordance with Section 7(f), and all transfer restrictions will lift on shares of Director Stock held by the Eligible Director, on or as soon as
administratively practicable after the date of such Governmental Service Resignation, and (ii) if the Eligible Director provides the Company with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a result of such employment, the divestiture of the
Eligible Director’s continued interest in his or her Cash Account is reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of U.S. federal, state or local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of interest law applicable to the Eligible Director at such
Governmental Employer, all amounts credited to the Eligible Director’s Cash Account will be distributed in a lump sum on or as soon as administratively practicable after the date of such Governmental Service Resignation 
 (b) Governmental Service following Resignation. Notwithstanding any election made by an Eligible Director on any Deferral Form, if, following the
termination of an Eligible Director’s service as a director of the Company, the Eligible Director accepts employment with a Governmental Employer, then (i) upon providing the Company with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a
result of such employment the divestiture of the Eligible Director’s continued interest in Company equity awards or continued ownership of Stock is reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of U.S. federal, state or local or foreign ethics
law or conflicts of interest law applicable to the Eligible Director at such Governmental Employer, all amounts credited to the Eligible Director’s Elective Stock Unit Account and Mandatory Stock Unit Account will be distributed in a lump sum
in accordance with Section 7(f), and all transfer restrictions will lift on shares of Director Stock held by the Director, on or as soon as administratively practicable after the date on which the Eligible Director provides the Company with
such satisfactory evidence, and (ii) if the Eligible Director provides the Company with satisfactory evidence demonstrating that as a result of such employment, the divestiture of the Eligible Director’s continued interest in his or her
Cash Account is reasonably necessary to avoid the violation of U.S. federal, state or local or foreign ethics law or conflicts of interest law applicable to the Eligible Director at such Governmental Employer, all amounts credited to the Eligible
Director’s Cash Account will be distributed in a lump sum on or as soon as administratively practicable after the date on which the Eligible Director provides the Company with such satisfactory evidence. 
  

 9 

 Section 10. Fair Market Value 
 “Fair Market Value” shall mean, with respect to each share of Stock for any day: 
 (a) if
the Stock is listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, (i) the volume weighted average price of the Stock, reflecting composite trading between 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on such date, as reported by the Bloomberg
Professional Service on the MS Equity Volume at Price page under the “VWAP” field, at 4:00 p.m. on such date, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, or, if not so reported, as reported by another third party source to which the Company has
access on such date, or if no such reported sale of the Stock shall have occurred on such date, on the most recent date on which such a reported sale occurred; or (ii) if the volume weighted average price is not available from a third party
source to which the Company has access on such date or on the most recent date on which a reported sale occurred, “Fair Market Value” will be the average of the high and low prices of the Stock as reported on the Consolidated Transaction
Reporting System on such date, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, or if no such reported sale of the Stock shall have occurred on such date, on the most recent date on which such a reported sale occurred; or 
 (b) if the Stock is not so listed, but is listed on another national securities exchange, the closing price, regular way, of the Stock on such exchange,
rounded up to the nearest whole cent, on which the largest number of shares of Stock have been traded in the aggregate on the preceding twenty trading days, or, if no such reported sale of the Stock shall have occurred on such date on such exchange,
on the most recent date on which such a reported sale occurred on such exchange, or 
 (a) if the Stock is not listed for trading on a
national securities exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers, rounded up to the nearest whole cent, or, if no such prices shall have been so reported for such date, on
the most recent date for which such prices were so reported. 
 Section 11. Issuance of Stock 
 (a) Restrictions on Transferability. All shares of Stock delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other
restrictions as the Company may deem advisable or legally necessary under any laws, statutes, rules, regulations and other legal requirements, including, without limitation, those of any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed and any
applicable federal, state or foreign securities law. 
 (b) Compliance with Laws. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, the
Company shall not be required to issue any shares of Stock under the Plan if, in the opinion of legal counsel to the Company, the issuance and delivery of such shares would constitute a violation by the Eligible Director or the Company of any
applicable law or regulation of any governmental authority, including, without limitation, federal and state securities laws, or the regulations of any stock exchanges on which the Company’s securities may then be listed. 
 Section 12. Withholding Taxes 
 The Company may
require as a condition of delivery of any shares of Stock that the Eligible Director remit (i) in cash, (ii) by tendering (or attesting to the ownership of) shares of Stock that the Company determines will not result in unfavorable
accounting treatment or (iii) by the Company withholding shares of Stock, an amount sufficient to satisfy all foreign, federal, state, local and other governmental withholding tax requirements relating thereto (if any) and, 

  

 10 

 
exclusively in the case of an award that does not constitute a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A, any or all indebtedness or other
obligation of the Eligible Director to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. In the case of any award that constitutes a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A, the Company may not withhold shares of Stock to satisfy obligations
that an Eligible Director owes to the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than with respect to taxes or other governmental charges imposed on amounts received by the Eligible Director pursuant to such award, except to the extent such
withholding is not prohibited by Section 409A and would not cause the Eligible Director to recognize income for United States federal income tax purposes prior to the time of payment of the award or to incur interest or additional tax under
Section 409A. Any shares tendered or withheld pursuant to this Section 12 will be valued at Fair Market Value on the relevant payment or exercise date, as applicable. 
 Section 13. Plan Amendments and Termination 
 The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any
time, in whole or in part. Termination of the Plan shall not adversely affect the rights of Eligible Directors in Mandatory Stock Unit Accounts, Cash Accounts and Elective Stock Unit Accounts outstanding at the time of termination. Notwithstanding
any termination of the Plan, distributions to Eligible Directors in respect of their Mandatory Stock Unit Accounts, Cash Accounts and Elective Stock Unit Accounts shall be made at the times and in the manner provided herein. 
 The Board may also alter, amend or modify the Plan at any time. These amendments may include (but are not limited to) changes that the Board considers
necessary or advisable as a result of changes in, or the adoption or interpretation of, any law, regulation, ruling, judicial decision or accounting standards (collectively, “Legal Requirements”). The Board may not amend or modify
the Plan in a manner that would materially impair an Eligible Director’s rights in any Mandatory Stock Unit Account, Cash Account or Elective Stock Unit Account without the Eligible Director’s consent; provided,
however, that the Board may, without an Eligible Director’s consent, amend or modify the Plan in any manner that it considers necessary or advisable to comply with any Legal Requirement or to ensure that amounts credited to an
Eligible Director’s Mandatory Stock Unit Account, Cash Account or Elective Stock Unit Account are not subject to federal, state or local income tax prior to payment. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any provision of this Plan would, in the reasonable, good faith judgment of the Company, result in or likely result in the imposition on any Eligible Director or any other person of
any tax, interest or penalty under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the Company may reform this Plan or any provision hereof, without the consent of any Eligible Director, in the manner that the Company reasonably
and in good faith determines to be necessary or advisable to avoid the imposition of such tax, interest or penalty; provided, however, that any such reformation shall, to the maximum extent the Company reasonably and in good faith
determines to be possible, retain the economic and tax benefits to the Eligible Directors hereunder while not materially increasing the cost to the Company of providing such benefits to the Eligible Directors. 
 The Board may delegate to the Plan Administrator its authority under this Section 13 to amend any provision of the Plan for which approval by the
Board (or a committee thereof) is not required under applicable law or the rules of any national securities exchange on which the Stock is traded. 
  

 11 

 Section 14. Listing, Registration and Legal Compliance 
 If the Plan Administrators shall at any time determine that any Consent (as hereinafter defined) is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in
connection with, the granting of any award under the Plan, the issuance or purchase of shares or other rights hereunder or the taking of any other action hereunder (each such action being hereinafter referred to as a “Plan Action”),
then such Plan Action shall not be taken, in whole or in part, unless and until such Consent shall have been effected or obtained. The term “Consent” as used herein with respect to any Plan Action means (i) the listing,
registrations or qualifications in respect thereof upon any securities exchange or under any foreign, federal, state or local law, rule or regulation, (ii) any and all consents, clearances and approvals in respect of a Plan Action by any
governmental or other regulatory bodies, or (iii) any and all written agreements and representations by an Eligible Director with respect to the disposition of Stock or with respect to any other matter, which the Plan Administrators shall deem

 Section 16. Rights as a Stockholder 
 Except as
otherwise provided by the terms of any applicable Benefit Plan Trust, an Eligible Director shall not, by reason of any stock option, Director Stock, Stock Unit or Stock Amount, have any rights as a stockholder of the Company until Stock has been
issued to such Eligible Director. 
 Section 17. Unfunded Plan 
 The Plan shall be unfunded and shall not create (or be construed to create) a trust or a separate fund or funds. The Plan shall not establish any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Eligible Director or
other person. To the extent any person holds any rights by virtue of a pending grant or deferral under the Plan, such rights shall be no greater than the rights of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company may (but shall not be obligated to) contribute shares of Stock corresponding to Stock Units to a Benefit Plan Trust, provided that the principal and income of any such Benefit Plan Trust shall be subject to the claims of general creditors of
the Company. The Company may amend the terms of any Benefit Plan Trust as applicable to any one or more Eligible Directors in order to procure favorable tax treatment for such Eligible Director(s) or to comply with the laws applicable in any
non-U.S. jurisdiction.
