protection from Grantee’s use of the information and customer and employee relationships with which Grantee has been entrusted by the Company during Grantee’s employment. 

 (b) Grantee acknowledges and agrees that any injury to the Company’s customer
relationships, or the loss of those relationships, would cause irreparable harm to the Company. Accordingly, Grantee shall not, while employed by the Company and for a period of one year from the date of Grantee’s Separation from Service for
any reason, including Separation from Service initiated by the Company with or without cause, directly or indirectly, either on Grantee’s own behalf or on behalf of any other person, firm or entity, solicit or provide services that are the same
as or similar to the services the Company provided or offered while Grantee was employed by the Company to any customer or prospective customer of the Company (i) with whom Grantee had direct contact during the last two years of Grantee’s
employment with the Company or about whom Grantee learned confidential information as a result of his or her employment with the Company or (ii) with whom any person over whom Grantee had supervisory authority at any time had direct contact
during the last two years of Grantee’s employment with the Company or about whom such person learned confidential information as a result of his or her employment with the Company. 

(c) Grantee shall not, while employed by the Company and for a period of two years following Separation from Service Grantee’s
Separation from Service for any reason, including Separation from Service initiated by the Company with or without cause, either directly or indirectly solicit, induce or encourage any individual who was a Company employee at the time of, or within
six months prior to, Grantee’s Separation from Service, to terminate their employment with the Company or accept employment with any entity, including but not limited to a competitor, supplier or customer of the Company, nor shall Grantee

Company, or (iii) referring Company employees to personnel or agents employed by any entity, including but not limited to competitors, suppliers or customers of the Company. 

7. Miscellaneous.

any way with the right of the Company to terminate Grantee’s employment at any time. 
 (b) This Award shall be governed in
accordance with the laws of the state of Delaware. 
 (c) This Award shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any

beneficiary designation procedures approved by the Company or other procedures approved by the Company. Any other transfer or attempted assignment, pledge or hypothecation, whether or not by
operation of law, shall be void. 
 (e) The Committee, as from time to time constituted, shall have the right to determine any
questions which arise in connection with this Agreement. This Agreement and the Award are subject to the provisions of the 2004 PIP and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. 

(f) If there is any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Award and the terms and conditions of Grantee’s employment
agreement, employment letter or other similar agreement, the terms and conditions of such agreement shall control. 
 (g) This
Award is intended to comply with section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder. This Award shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner
consistent with the intent expressed in this paragraph. If any compensation or benefits provided by this Award may result in the application of section 409A of the Code, the Company shall, in consultation with you, modify this Award as necessary in
order to exclude such compensation from the definition of “deferred compensation” within the meaning of such section 409A of the Code or in order to comply with the provisions of section 409A of the Code. By signing this Agreement you

“Employer Contributions”). Employer Contributions shall be 
 credited to each Participant’s Employer Contributions Account
as of such time or times determined by the Committee, but Employer Contributions that are related to Deferrals shall be credited not later than the date on which the related Deferrals are credited to the Participant’s Deferral Account.

 (c) Earnings. From time to time, there shall be credited to the Deferral Account and the Employer Contributions

vested in amounts credited to his Employer Contributions Account upon termination of such Participant’s employment with the Employer by reason of death or 

  
 5 

 
Retirement or upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or Participant’s Disability; provided, however, that the Participant shall not become vested upon the occurrence of a Change
in Control to the extent such vesting would cause any portion of his Deferred Compensation Benefits to constitute an “excess parachute payment” under Code Section 280G. The Committee in its discretion shall determine whether and to
what extent any Deferred Compensation Benefits constitute “excess parachute payments” hereunder. 
 3.2 Payment of
Deferred Compensation Benefits. 
 (a) Payment Dates Generally. Each deferral election, if any, described in

his Deferred Compensation Benefits to which such election relates in one (but not more than one) of the following forms: 
 (i) a lump sum payment; or 
 (ii) to the extent permitted by the
Committee in its discretion, in equal monthly installments over a period not exceeding sixty (60) months.

(a) Deferral Elections Generally. Each written election described in Section 3.1(a) shall be made at such time and in such
manner as determined by the Committee, but in no event later than December 31 of the year prior to the beginning of the Plan Year for which it is to be effective; provided, however, that in the year in which a Participant first becomes
eligible to participate in the Plan, such election may be made within thirty (30) days after the Participant becomes eligible to participate, but such election shall be effective only with respect to compensation for services performed after
the date the election is made. Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph (c) or on an election form, any elections as to Payment Dates or form of benefit made pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be irrevocable as to any Deferred Compensation
Benefits that accrue while such elections are in effect. 
 (b) Certain Limitations on Deferrals. For any Plan Year, a
Participant may not defer any amount in excess of 50% of the Base Salary and 100% of the Bonuses earned by the Participant during the Plan Year. Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph (a), a Participant may defer hereunder only Base Salary and
Bonuses that are earned on or after the date the election is filed with the Committee. 
 (c) Termination or Modification of
Elections. Notwithstanding the last sentence of subparagraph (a): 
 (i) no revocation of a written election
described in Section 3.1(a) shall take effect until the first day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Committee receives such revocation; 
 (ii) a written election described in Section 3.1(a) shall automatically terminate on the earliest to occur of (A) the termination of a Participant’s employment by his Employer for any
reason or (B) the termination of the Plan; and 
 (iii) if permitted by the Committee in its sole
discretion, a Participant may change any Payment Date (but not the form of benefit) previously designated by the Participant pursuant to Section 3.2, provided, however, that: (A) the Participant must make an election designating the
new Payment Date at least twelve (12) months prior to the Payment Date previously designated; (B) such election shall not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which it is made; (C) the new Payment Date

 Section 3.4 Special Rules Related to Distributions. 
 (a)
Unforeseeable Emergency Distributions. The Committee may at any time, upon written request of the Participant, cause to be paid to such Participant an amount equal to all or any 

  
 7 

 
part of such Participant’s Deferred Compensation Benefits if the Committee determines, in its absolute discretion based on such reasonable evidence that it shall require, that such a payment
or payments is necessary for the purpose of alleviating the consequences of an Unforeseeable Emergency occurring with respect to the Participant. This decision will be determined based upon the relevant facts and circumstances of each case. Payments
of amounts because of an Unforeseeable Emergency shall be permitted only to the extent reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need (including amounts necessary to pay any Federal, state, local or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably
anticipated to result from the distribution) and shall not be permitted to the extent such need may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation from insurance or otherwise, by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent
liquidation would not itself cause severe financial hardship), or by the cessation of deferrals under the Plan. 
 (b) Small
Accounts. If a Participant’s Account is $17,000 (this amount shall be adjusted for cost-of-living increases pursuant to Section 402(g)(4) of the Code) or less at the time of the Participant’s Separation from Service, such
Participant’s Deferred Compensation Benefits shall automatically be paid to him in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable following his Separation from Service. 
 Section 3.5 Withholding. Each Employer shall withhold from a Participant’s Base Salary or Bonus such amounts as are necessary to satisfy its withholding obligations thereunder as to any
Deferrals by the Participant. In addition, each Employer shall deduct from any distributions hereunder any taxes or other amounts required by law to be withheld therefrom. 
 Section 3.6 Participants’ Accounts. Each Employer shall establish and maintain a Deferral Account and an Employer Contributions Account for each Participant and such sub-accounts as the
Committee deems necessary or appropriate. Each Deferral Account so established shall be credited as appropriate for Deferrals and Earnings with respect to such Deferrals and debited for any distributions from such Account. Each Employer
Contributions Account so established shall be credited as appropriate for Employer Contributions and Earnings with respect to such Employer Contributions and debited for any distributions from such Account. 

Section 3.7 Delay of Payment for Specified Employees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, if the Committee
determines that upon a Participant’s Separation from Service from the Company (or at such other time that the Committee determines to be relevant) the Participant is a Specified Employee of the Company and that any payments to be provided to
the Participant pursuant to this Plan upon the Participant’s Separation from Service are or may become subject to the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code or any other taxes or penalties imposed under Section 409A of
the Code (“Section 409A Taxes”) if provided at the time otherwise required under this Plan, then such payments shall be delayed until the date that is six months after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service from
the Company, or such shorter period that, as determined by the Committee, is sufficient to avoid the imposition of Section 409A Taxes (the “Payment Delay Period”). Any payments delayed pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall be
made in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Separation from Service, or such earlier date that, as determined by the Committee, is sufficient to avoid the imposition of any Section 409A Taxes.

 ARTICLE IV 
 BENEFICIARIES 
 Section 4.1 Beneficiary Designations. A
designation of a Beneficiary hereunder may be made only by an instrument (in form acceptable to the Committee) signed by the Participant and filed with the Committee prior to the Participant’s death. In the absence of such a designation and at

part of any payment thereafter to be made to the Participant’s Beneficiary unless the Participant’s designation specifically provides to the contrary. If two or more persons designated as a Participant’s Beneficiary are in existence
with respect to a single Deferred Compensation Benefit, the amount of any payment to the Beneficiary under this Plan shall be divided equally among such persons, unless the Participant’s designation specifically provided to the contrary.

 Section 4.2 Change in Beneficiary. A Participant may, at any time and from time to time, change a Beneficiary
designation hereunder without the consent of any existing Beneficiary or any other person. Any change in Beneficiary shall be made by giving written notice thereof to the Committee and any change shall be effective only if received by the Committee
prior to the death of the Participant. 
 Section 4.3 Distributions to Beneficiaries. The Beneficiary or
Beneficiaries of a Participant shall be entitled to receive the unpaid Deferred Compensation Benefits to which the Participant was entitled at his death payable in a lump sum as soon as practicable following the date of the Participant’s death.

 ARTICLE V 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 5.1 Liability of Employer. Nothing in
this Plan shall constitute the creation of a trust or other fiduciary relationship between an Employer and any Participant, Beneficiary or any other person. 
 Section 5.2 Ownership of Assets; Relationship with Company. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Participants shall have no right, title or interest whatsoever in or to the
Accounts or the Deferred Compensation Benefits. Nothing contained in the Plan, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, shall create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between the Company and any
Participant or any other person. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company. 

Section 5.3 No Guarantee of Employment. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as guaranteeing future employment to any
Participant. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, except as otherwise set forth in a written agreement, a Participant continues to be an employee of an Employer solely at the will of such Employer subject to discharge at any
time, with or without cause.

 Section 5.4 Payment to Guardian. If a benefit payable hereunder is payable to a
minor, to a person declared incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of his property, the Committee may direct payment of such benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the care and custody of such minor,
incompetent or person. The Committee may require such proof of incompetency, minority, incapacity or guardianship as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the benefit. Such distribution shall completely discharge the Employers from all
liability with respect to such benefit. 
 Section 5.5 Assignment. No right or interest under this Plan of any
Participant or Beneficiary shall be assignable or transferable in any manner or be subject to alienation, anticipation, sale, pledge, encumbrance or other legal process or in any manner be liable for or subject to the debts or liabilities of the
Participant or Beneficiary. 
 Section 5.6 Severability. If any provision of this Plan or the application thereof to
any circumstance(s) or person(s) is held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of the Plan and the application of such provision to other circumstances or persons shall not be affected thereby. 

Section 5.7 Expenses; Liability for Benefits. Each Employer shall be liable for the payment of the Deferred Compensation
Benefits which are payable hereunder to its employees and for its pro rata portion of the expenses of administering the Plan, as determined by the Committee. 
 Section 5.8 Top Hat Plan. The Plan is designed primarily for purposes of providing benefits for a select group of management and highly compensated employees of the Company and its
Subsidiaries that adopt the Plan. It is intended to qualify as a “top hat” plan under Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. 

ARTICLE VI 

ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN 
 Section 6.1 Administration. 
 (a) General. The Plan shall be
administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have sole and absolute discretion to interpret where necessary all provisions of the Plan (including, without limitation, by supplying omissions from, correcting deficiencies in, or resolving
inconsistencies or ambiguities in, the language of the Plan), to determine the rights and status under the Plan of Participants or other persons, to resolve questions or disputes arising under the Plan and to make any determinations with respect to
the benefits payable under the Plan and the persons entitled thereto as may be necessary for the purposes of the Plan. The Committee’s determination of the rights of any employee or former employee hereunder shall be final and binding on all
persons, subject only to the appeal provisions outlined in Section 6.3 hereof. 

  
 10 

 (b) Compliance with Tax Provisions. The Plan is intended to comply with the
provisions of Section 409A of the Code (including the U.S. Treasury Regulations and other guidance issued thereunder), and the Committee shall interpret the Plan in a manner consistent therewith. 

(c) Delegation of Duties. The Committee may delegate any of its administrative duties, including, without limitation, duties with
respect to the processing, review, investigation, approval and payment of Deferred Compensation Benefits, to a named administrator or administrators. 
 Section 6.2 Regulations. The Committee may promulgate any rules and regulations it deems necessary in order to carry out the purposes of the Plan or to interpret the provisions of the Plan;
provided, however, that no rule, regulation or interpretation shall be contrary to the provisions of the Plan. The rules, regulations and interpretations made by the Committee shall, subject only to the appeal provisions outlined in
Section 6.3 hereof, be final and binding on all persons. 
 Section 6.3 Appeal Provisions. The Committee shall
determine the rights of any employee or former employee to any Deferred Compensation Benefits hereunder. Any employee or former employee who believes that he has not received the Deferred Compensation Benefits to which he is entitled under the Plan
may file a claim in writing with the Committee. The Committee shall, no later than 90 days after the receipt of a claim (unless special circumstances require an extension of up to 90 additional days, provided that written notice of the extension of
time is given to the claimant within the first 90 day period), either allow or deny the claim in writing. If a claimant does not receive written notice of the Committee’s decision on his claim within the above-mentioned period, the claim shall
be deemed to have been denied in full. 
 A denial of a claim by the Committee, wholly or partially, shall be written in a
manner calculated to be understood by the claimant and shall include: 
 (a) the specific reasons for the denial; 

(b) specific reference to pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based; 

(c) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why
such material or information is necessary; and 
 (d) an explanation of the claim review procedure. 

A claimant whose claim is denied (or his duly authorized representative) may within 60 days after receipt of denial of a claim file with
the Committee a written request for a review of such claim. If the claimant does not file a request for review of his claim within such 60-day period, the claimant shall be deemed to have acquiesced in the original decision of the Committee on his
claim. If such an appeal is so filed within such 60-day period, the Company (or its delegate) shall conduct a full and fair review of such claim. During such review, the claimant shall be given the opportunity to review documents that are pertinent
to his claim and to submit issues and comments in writing. 

  
 11 

 The Company shall mail or deliver to the claimant a written decision on the matter based on
the facts and the pertinent provisions of the Plan within 60 days after the receipt of the request for review (unless special circumstances require an extension of up to 60 additional days, in which case written notice of such extension shall be
given to the claimant prior to the commencement of such extension). Such decision shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant, shall state the specific reasons for the decision and the specific Plan provisions on which
the decision was based and shall, to the extent permitted by law, be final and binding on all interested persons. If the decision on review is not furnished to the claimant within the above-mentioned time period, the claim shall be deemed to have
been denied on review. 
 Section 6.4 Revocability of Committee/Company Action. Any action taken by the Committee
with respect to the rights or benefits under the Plan of any employee or former employee shall be revocable by the Committee as to payments not yet made to such person, and acceptance of any Deferred Compensation Benefits under the Plan constitutes
acceptance of and agreement to the Committee’s or the Company’s making any appropriate adjustments in future payments to such person (or to recover from such person) any excess payment or underpayment previously made to him. 

Section 6.5 Amendment. The Committee may at any time (without the consent of any Subsidiary which adopts the Plan) amend any
or all of the provisions of this Plan, except that no such amendment may (a) reduce the balance of any Participant’s Account as of the date of such amendment, (b) change the time or form of distribution from a Participant’s
Account or (c) change the provisions of the Plan applicable to a Participant’s Account upon a Change in Control, without the prior written consent of such Participant. Any amendment shall be in the form of a written instrument executed by
an officer of the Company pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Committee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.6, such amendment shall become effective as of the date specified in such instrument or, if no such date is
specified, on the date of its execution. 
 Section 6.6 Termination. The Committee, in its discretion (without the
consent of any Subsidiary which adopts the Plan), may terminate this Plan and pay amounts due hereunder to the full extent permitted by and in accordance with Section 409A of the Code (including, but not limited to,
Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations), except that no such termination may (a) reduce the balance of any Participant’s Account as of the date of such termination or (b) materially change the provisions of
the Plan applicable to a Participant’s Account upon a Change in Control, without the prior written consent of such Participant. Any such termination shall be expressed in the form of a written instrument executed by an officer of the Company
pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Committee. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.7, such termination shall become effective as of the date specified in such instrument or, if no such date is specified, on the date of its
execution. Written notice of any termination shall be given to the Participants as soon as practicable after the instrument is executed.
