If any severance benefits and payments are payable to an Executive under this Policy, then such amounts will be the only severance benefits and payments that are due to Executive upon Executive's Constructive Termination, unless the Committee or the Board expressly approves any additional or other severance benefits and payments.

7

7.2   Mitigation . Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment contemplated by this Policy, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive from any other source reduce any such payment.

8.1   Treatment of Parachute Payments . To the extent that any of the payments and benefits provided for in this Policy or otherwise payable to Executive (the "Payments") constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, the amount of such Payments shall be either:

1. the full amount of the Payments, or

2. a reduced amount that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Code (the "Excise Tax"), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by Executive, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefit. In the event that any Excise Tax is imposed on the Payments, Executive will be fully responsible for the payment of any and all Excise Tax, and the Company will not be obligated to pay all or any portion of any Excise Tax.

8.2   Determination of Amounts . All computations and determinations called for by Section 8.1 shall be promptly determined and reported in writing to the Company and the Executive by independent public accountants or other independent advisors selected by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Executive (the "Accountants"), and all such computations and determinations shall be conclusive and binding upon the Participant and the Company. For the purposes of such determinations, the Accountants may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and the Executive shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make their required determinations. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses charged by the Accountants in connection with these services.

The Policy will be administered by the Administrator. The Administrator may interpret the Policy, prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations under the Policy and make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the Policy, subject to all of the provisions of the Policy. The Administrator may delegate any of its duties hereunder to such person or persons from time to time as it may designate.

The Board will have the right to amend or terminate this Policy at any time in its sole discretion; provided, however that any amendment or termination reasonably determined to have an adverse effect on the then-eligible Executives (a) must be disclosed to the Executives at least three months prior to taking effect and (b) cannot take effect within three months before, on or within 12 months following any Change-in-Control. Unless earlier terminated, this Policy shall expire automatically on September 30, 2027.

11.   NOTICES

11.1   Notice . Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Policy will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of Executive, mailed notices will be addressed to him/her at the home address which he/she most recently communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices will be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices will be directed to the attention of the Company's General Counsel.

11.2   Notice of Termination . Any Constructive Termination will be communicated by a notice of termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 11.1 of this Policy. Such notice will indicate the specific termination provision in this Policy relied upon, will set forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination under the provision so indicated, and will specify the termination date.

12.1   General . Any benefits payable under this Policy upon an Executive's termination will be interpreted to require that Executive experiences a "separation from service" (as such term is defined in Treasury regulations issued under Code Section 409A). Further, if Executive is a "specified employee" within the meaning of Code Section 409A at the time of his separation from service (other than due to Executive's death), then the severance benefits payable to Executive under this Policy that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A and are due to Executive on or within the six-month period following his separation from service will accrue during such six-month period and will become payable (without interest) in a lump sum payment on the earlier of (a) the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six months and one day following the date of Executive's separation from service and (b) the Executive's death. Each payment and benefit payable under this Policy is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulations 1.409A-2(b)(2).

12.2   Reimbursements . Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, to the extent that any in-kind benefit or reimbursement arrangement provides for a payment that is considered deferred compensation under Section 409A, then such in-kind benefit or reimbursements will be made in accordance with Treasury Regulations 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv) including: (a) the amount of such in-kind benefits provided in any calendar year and the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement in any calendar year will not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year; (b) in no event will any such expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Executive incurred such expenses; and (c) in no event will any such right to reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit or payment.

9

12.3   Interpretation . The foregoing provisions are intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Code Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company makes no representations as to the tax compliance or treatment of any benefits payable under this Policy. The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Policy and to take such reasonable actions which are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition.

13.1   Choice of Law . The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Policy will be governed by the laws of the State of California (with the exception of its conflict of laws provisions).

13.2   Integration . Unless the Board or the Committee expressly approves any additional or other severance benefits and payments for a particular Executive, this Policy represents the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the payment of severance or other benefits if Executive's employment with the Company terminates, including in Connection with a Change-in-Control, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and the vesting provisions of any Equity Award, with respect to the subject matter of this Policy.

13.3   Severability . In the event that any provision or any portion of any provision hereof becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, this Policy will continue in full force and effect without said provision or portion of provision. The remainder of this Policy will be interpreted so as best to effect the intent of the Company and Executive.

13.4   Funding . The Company will not be required to fund or otherwise segregate assets to be used for the payment of any benefits under the Policy. The Company will make such payments only out of its general corporate funds, and therefore its obligation to make such payments will be subject to any claims of its other creditors.

13.5   Withholding . The Company may withhold all applicable taxes from payments or benefit due under this Policy.
