In the event of any change in the outstanding Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination or exchange of shares or other similar corporate change, special distribution to the shareholders or any other event which, in the judgment of the Committee, necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, the Committee shall make such equitable adjustments as it deems appropriate in (i) the number of shares of Stock available, both under this Plan as a whole and with respect to individuals, (ii) the number and type of shares of Stock subject to or underlying outstanding Awards, (iii) the grant price, purchase price or Option Price with respect to any Award, and (iv) to the extent that such discretion will not cause an Award that is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m) to lose its status as such, the Performance Goals with respect to an Award. Any such adjustment shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes of this Plan.

5.5. Change in Control . Subject to Code Section 409A and Section 15 of this Plan, unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, provide that (i) some or all outstanding Awards become immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any limitation

imposed pursuant to this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement, (ii) Awards shall terminate, provided that the Participant shall have the right, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change in Control and during such reasonable period as the Committee shall determine and designate, to exercise any vested Award in whole or in part, and/or (iii) Awards shall terminate, provided that Participants shall be entitled to a cash payment equal to the excess of the aggregate fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Committee) of the Stock subject to the Awards (to the extent then exercisable) over the aggregate Option Price, grant price or purchase price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, in a year when a Change in Control takes place, no Awards other than a cash Performance Award shall be granted after such Change in Control to otherwise eligible Participants.

5.6. Change in Status of Subsidiary . Unless otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, in the event of a Change in Control of a Subsidiary, or in the event that a Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary, the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) provide that some or all outstanding Awards held by a Participant employed by or performing services for such Subsidiary may become immediately exercisable or vested, without regard to any limitation imposed pursuant to this Plan or the applicable Award Agreement and/or (ii) treat the employment or other services of a Participant employed by such Subsidiary as terminated if such Participant is not employed by the Company or Subsidiary immediately after such event.

5.7. Dissolution or Liquidation . Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, this Plan shall terminate, and all Awards outstanding hereunder shall terminate. In the event of any termination of this Plan under this Section 5.7, each individual holding an Award shall have the right, immediately prior to the occurrence of such termination and during such reasonable period as the Committee shall determine and designate, to exercise such Award in whole or in part, whether or not such Award was otherwise exercisable at the time such termination occurs and without regard to any vesting or other limitation on exercise imposed pursuant to this Plan.

6. STOCK OPTIONS

6.1. Grant of Award . The Company may award Options to purchase Stock, including Restricted Stock (hereinafter referred to as “ Stock Option Awards ”) to such Participants as the Committee authorizes and under such terms as the Committee establishes. The Committee shall determine with respect to each Stock Option Award, and designate in the grant, whether a Participant is to receive an ISO or a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

6.2. Option Price . The Option Price per share subject to a Stock Option Award shall be specified in the grant, but in no event shall be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant to whom an ISO is granted owns, at the time of the grant, more than ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of the Company, the Option Price per share subject to such grant shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value.

6.3. Terms of Option . A Stock Option that is an ISO shall not be transferable by the Participant other than as permitted under Section 422 of the Code or any successor provision and this Plan,

and, during the Participant’s lifetime, shall be exercisable only by the Participant. Non-Qualified Stock Options are subject to such restrictions on transferability and exercise as set forth in this Plan and as may be provided for by the Committee in the terms of the grant. A Stock Option shall be of no more than ten (10) years’ duration, except that an ISO granted to a Participant who, at the time of the grant, owns Stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the combined voting power of the Company shall by its terms be of no more than five (5) years’ duration. A Stock Option shall vest in a Participant to whom it is granted and be exercisable only after the earliest of (i) such period of time as the Committee shall determine and specify in the grant, but with respect to Employees, in no event less than one (1) year following the date of grant of such Award, (ii) the Participant’s death, or (iii) a Change in Control.

6.4. Exercise of Option . Subject to the following exceptions, and except as provided in an applicable Award Agreement, a Stock Option awarded to a Participant who is an employee is only exercisable by that Participant while the Participant is in active employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or within (i) 90 days after termination of such employment for Cause, (ii) a one-year period after a Participant’s death, provided the Option is exercised by the estate of the Participant or by any person who acquired such Option by bequest or inheritance, (iii) a one-year period commencing on the date of the Participant’s termination of employment other than due to death, Total Disability, or by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause, or (iv) a one-year period commencing on the Participant’s termination of employment on account of Total Disability. A Stock Option may not be exercised pursuant to this paragraph after the expiration date of the Stock Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any ISO is only exercisable by the Participant (i) while the Participant is in active employment with the Company or a Subsidiary or within three months after termination of such employment, (ii) within a one-year period after a Participant’s death, provided the ISO is exercised by the estate of the Participant or by any person who acquired such ISO by bequest or inheritance, or (iii) within a one-year period commencing on the Participant’s termination of employment on account of Total Disability. The foregoing sentence is intended to comply with Section 422 under the Code. To the extent those requirements change, this Section 6.4 shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such change.

An Option may be exercised with respect to part or all of the Stock subject to the Option by giving written notice to the Company of the exercise of the Option. The Option Price for the Stock for which an Option is exercised shall be paid on the date of exercise in cash (by certified, bank cashier’s or personal check), in whole shares of Stock owned by the Participant prior to exercising the Option, in a combination of cash and such shares or on such other terms and conditions as the Committee may approve.

6.5. Limitation Applicable to Incentive Stock Options . The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time such ISO is granted) of the Stock for which any individual may have an ISO which first became vested and exercisable in any calendar year (under all plans of the Company under which Stock Options are available for grant) shall not exceed $100,000. Options granted to such individual in excess of the $100,000 limitation, and any Options issued subsequently which first become vested and exercisable in the same calendar year, shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options. In the event the individual holds two or more Option

Awards that become exercisable for the first time in the same calendar year, such limitation shall be applied on the basis of the order in which such Option Awards were granted.

6.6. Notification of Company Upon Disqualifying Disposition of Incentive Stock Options . In the event a Participant sells or otherwise transfers Stock acquired through the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option prior to the expiration of the required holding period under Code Section 422, the Participant shall provide prompt notice of such sale or transfer to the Company.

7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan, the Committee may grant Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs), in such amounts and on such terms and conditions as the Committee shall determine, including, but not limited to, those listed below, except that a SAR shall vest in a Participant to whom it is granted and be exercisable only after the earliest of (i) such period of time as the Committee shall determine and specify in the grant, but with respect to Employees, in no event less than one (1) year following the date of grant of such SAR, (ii) the Participant’s death, or (iii) a Change in Control:

(i) whether the SAR is granted independently of an Option or relates to an Option or other Award, provided that if a SAR is granted in relation to an Option, then, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the SAR shall be exercisable or shall mature at the same time or times, on the same conditions and to the extent and in the proportion that the related Option is exercisable and may be exercised or mature for all or part of the shares subject to the related Option. In such case, upon exercise of any number of SARs, the number of shares subject to the related Option shall be reduced accordingly and the Option may not be exercised with respect to that number of shares. The exercise of any number of Options that relate to a SAR shall likewise result in an equivalent reduction in the number of shares covered by the related SAR;

(ii) the grant date, which may not be any day prior to the date that the Committee approves the grant;

(iii) the number of shares to which the SAR relates;

(iv) the grant price, provided that the grant price shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock subject to the SAR on the date of grant;

(v) the terms and conditions of exercise or maturity;

(vi) the term, provided that a SAR must terminate no later than ten years after the date of grant;

(vii) the exercise period following a Participant’s termination of employment; and

(viii) whether the SAR will be settled in cash, Stock or a combination thereof.

9. PERFORMANCE AWARDS

The Committee may grant, either alone or in addition to other Awards granted under this Plan, Awards based on the attainment, over a specified period, of individual Performance Goals as the Committee authorizes and under such terms as the Committee establishes. Performance Awards

shall entitle the Participant to receive an Award if the measures of performance established by the Committee are met.

Unless otherwise provided in the Award, a Participant who is an Employee must be an Employee at the end of the performance period in order to receive the Performance Award.

Payments of Performance Awards under this Section 9 shall be made within two and one-half months of the fiscal year following that in which such payment first ceases to be subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture.

(i) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a specified increase in, the Company’s and/or a Subsidiary’s or other operational unit’s enterprise value or value creation targets;

(ii) the attainment of certain target levels of, or a percentage increase in, the Company’s and/or a Subsidiary’s or other operational unit’s after-tax or pre-tax profits, including, without limitation, that attributable to the Company’s and/or a Subsidiary’s or other operational unit’s continuing and/or other operations;

similar events or circumstances. Performance Goals may include, as determined by the Committee, a threshold level of performance below which no Award will be earned, levels of performance at which an Award will become partially earned and a level at which an Award will be fully earned.

The Performance Goals applicable to an Award shall be established in writing by the Committee no later than the earlier of the date (i) the Performance Goal outcome becomes substantially certain, (ii) if the period over which the Performance Goals are measured is at least one year, 90 days after the commencement of such period or (iii) if the period over which the Performance Goals are measured is less than one (1) year, the date representing twenty-five percent (25%) of such period.

12.2. Compliance With Rule 16b-3 . With respect to any person subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, transactions under this Plan are intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act, as applicable during the term of this Plan.

15. SECTION 409A OF THE CODE

In the event any Award under this Plan is subject to the provisions of Code Section 409A, this Plan and any such Award shall be administered and interpreted in a manner consistent with provisions of Section 409A of the Code and any rules or regulations issued pursuant thereto.

This Plan is intended not to provide for deferral of compensation for purposes of Section 409A, by means of complying with Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and/or Section 1.409A-1(b)(5) of the final Treasury regulations issued under Section 409A. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) and/or Section 1.409A-

1(b)(5) of the final Treasury regulations issued under Section 409A and this Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of this Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict.

In the event that following the application of the immediately preceding paragraph, any Award is subject to Section 409A, the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations issued thereunder are incorporated herein by reference to the extent necessary for any Award that is subject to Section 409A to not incur tax due to noncompliance with Section 409A. In such event, the provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A and the related regulations, and this Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of this Plan or any term or condition of any Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. Furthermore, with respect to RSUs and Performance Awards, to the extent necessary not to incur tax due to non-compliance with Section 409A, Change in Control will not be deemed to occur unless such Change in Control constitutes a “change in control event” (as such term is defined in Code Section 409A and the regulations issued thereunder).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in the event a Participant is treated as a “specified employee” under Section 409A and any payment under this Plan is treated as a nonqualified deferred compensation payment under Section 409A, then payment of such amounts shall be delayed for six months and a day following the effective date of the Participant’s termination of employment, at which time a lump sum payment shall be made to the Participant consisting of the sum of the delayed payments. This provision shall not apply in the event of a specified employee’s termination of employment on account of death and, in the event of a specified employee’s death during the aforementioned six-month and a day period, any such delayed nonqualified deferred compensation shall be paid within 30 days after such specified employee’s death.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, the Company does not guarantee to any Participant or any other person that any Award intended to be exempt from Section 409A shall be so exempt, nor that any Award intended to comply with Section 409A shall so comply, nor will the Company indemnify, defend or hold harmless any individual with respect to the tax consequences of any such failure.
