The terms of this Section 8(d) shall apply unless the Manager, in its sole discretion, determines that alternative terms shall be included in any Award Notice in which case the terms in such Award Notice shall govern the rights of the Participant. Notwithstanding the terms of this Section 8(d), in no event shall any Stock Option be exercisable after the end of the applicable Option Term.

(i) Termination with Cause. In the event that a Participant’s employment or commercial relationship with the Company is terminated for cause, as determined by a Court under the laws which regulates such employment or contractual relation, any remaining unvested Stock Options shall immediately lapse and become void. Thereafter, all vested Stock Options shall be immediately exercised by the Participant. Any unexercised Stock Options will thereafter lapse and become void.

(ii) Termination without Cause. In the event that the Participant’s employment or commercial termination by the Company without Cause, any remaining unvested Stock Options shall immediately lapse and become void. Thereafter, all vested Stock Options shall remain exercisable by the Participant until the end of the ninetieth (90^th) day after such Participant’s termination of employment or commercial relationship. Any unexercised Stock Options after their respective exercise periods will thereafter lapse and become void.

(iii) Resignation.

Thereafter, all vested Stock Options shall remain exercisable by the Participant (or by the Participant’s beneficiary, as applicable) until the expiration of the Stock Option Term. Any unexercised Stock Options after their respective exercise periods will thereafter lapse and become void.

(e) Option Term. Unless otherwise provided in the Award Notice, each vested Stock Option shall remain outstanding and can be exercised by the Participant at any time from the vesting date until fifth (5^th) anniversary of the grant date as set forth in the Award Notice (“Option Term”) and shall then terminate in its entirety and be forfeited on the day after Option Term. Stock Options that are not being exercised during the Option Term will expire without any compensation and without any notice being required by the Company.

(f) Method of Exercise. Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award Notice, the exercise price of a Stock Option may be paid in cash or previously owned shares or a combination thereof and, if the applicable Award Notice so provides, in whole or in part through the withholding of shares subject to the Stock Option with a value equal to the exercise price in accordance with the rules and procedures set forth by the Manager for this purpose. The Stock Option may also be exercised through a “cashless exercise” procedure approved by the Manager involving a broker or dealer approved by the Manager, that affords Participants the opportunity to sell, through the Trust, immediately some or all of the shares underlying the exercised portion of the Stock Option in order to generate sufficient cash to pay the Stock Option exercise price and/or to satisfy withholding tax obligations related to the Stock Option. In all cases, the Participant shall be responsible to comply with applicable legislation related to “priviledge information”.

13. Recapitalization or Reorganization

(a) Authority of the Company and Shareholders. The existence of the Plan, the Award Notices and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.

In addition, upon the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, the number of outstanding Awards and the number and kind of shares subject to any outstanding Award and the purchase price per share, if any, under any outstanding Award shall be equitably adjusted (including by payment of cash to a Participant) in order to preserve the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to Participants granted Awards. Such adjustments shall be made by the Board or the Committee, whose determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final.

No termination or amendment of the Plan may, without the consent of the Participant to whom an Award has been granted, adversely affect the rights of such Participant under such Award. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the Board or the Committee shall have broad authority to amend the Plan or any Award under the Plan to take into account changes in applicable tax laws, securities laws, accounting rules and other applicable state and federal laws.

15. Miscellaneous

(a) Tax Withholding. The Company may require any individual entitled to receive a payment in respect of an Award to remit to the Company, prior to such payment, an amount sufficient to satisfy any Federal, state or local tax withholding requirements. The Company shall also have the right to deduct from all cash payments made pursuant to or in connection with any Award any Federal, state or local taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payments. In the case of an Award payable in Shares, the Company may permit such individual to satisfy, in whole or in part, such obligation to remit taxes by directing the Company to withhold Shares that would otherwise be received by such individual, pursuant to such rules as the Manager may establish from time to time.

(b) Implementation of Plan; Trust. The Company will enter into a trust agreement (the “Trust”) with a Mexican financial institution in order to (i) implement and manage the terms of the Plan, and (ii) transfer the Shares underlying the Awards, as and when required, in accordance with the terms of the Plan and subject to fulfillment of any requirements set forth in applicable law.

The estate of the trust (the “Trust Estate”) shall be comprised by the Shares underlying the Awards and any cash contributions made by the Company from time to time, as well as by the cash payments made by the Participants, their Permitted Transferees or the Company in connection with the exercise of the Stock Options or delivery of Restricted Stock or Performance Restricted Stock.

The trustee of the Trust will act in accordance with the instructions of the Technical Committee of the Trust (the “Technical Committee”), which will be designated by the Manager of the Plan (and may be the same persons as the Manager); therefore, any decisions that are determined by the Manager in accordance with the terms of this Plan will be implemented through the Technical Committee for purposes of the Trust.

(c) Nature of the Awards, No Entitlement; No Claim for Compensation. Upon receipt of any Award Notice, and by mere fact that any Participant receives any Award, the Participant acknowledges the following:

(i) The grant and/or payment of any Award are voluntary and occasional and do not create any contractual or other right for the Participant to receive future grants, payments, or similar awards, or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past. The Awards do not constitute an acquired right. Being a variable and contingent compensation and having received the payment under this concept in past times, does not guarantee that the Participant will be entitled to receive such payments in future occasions;

(ii) All decisions with respect to future Awards if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company, through the Board, Committee or Manager;

(iii) The Participant is voluntarily participating in the Plan; and

(iv) The Plan or any grants or payments made under this Plan cannot under any circumstances be considered as an acquired right for the Participant.

(d) Award Notice. Except as expressly provided herein, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Plan and any Award Notice, the Plan shall govern, and the Award Notice shall be interpreted to minimize or eliminate any such conflict or inconsistency.

(e) Expenses. The costs and expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company.

(f) Applicable Law. The Plan and all actions taken thereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the applicable federal laws of Mexico.
