(i)    the portion of any shares of Stock issuable upon conversion of any RSU that will be deferred;

and

(ii)    the time at which the deferred shares of Stock will be distributed to such Participant , which may be (x) the July 15th following such Participant’s separation from service as a director of the Company or (z) in substantially equal annual installments over a period of up to five years commencing with the July 15th following my having a “separation from service” as a director of the Company (within the meaning given in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-1(h) or successor guidance thereto).

Each Election Form will remain in effect until superseded or revoked pursuant to this ‎Section 5.

(c)    Timing of Elections.

(i)    Subject to ‎Section 5(c)(ii) and Section 5(c)(iii), an Election Form executed by a Participant shall apply to any RSU that is granted to such Participant at any time following the end of the calendar year in which such Election Form is executed and prior to its revocation.

(ii)    An Election Form filed by a Participant within 30 days after such Participant becomes eligible to participate in the Plan shall apply to any RSU that is granted to such Participant or relates to services performed following the date on which such Participant executes such Election Form, including, without limitation, any RSU paid in connection with such Participant’s initial election as a non-employee director of the Company.

(iii)    A person who is eligible to receive compensation as a non-employee director on the Effective Date (as defined in Section 11 hereof) and who files an Election Form within 30 days of the Effective Date may elect to defer any RSU that is granted to such Participant or relates to services performed following the date on which such Participant executes such Election Form.

(d)    Subsequent Election Forms. A Participant who has an Election Form on file with the Company may execute and file with the Company a subsequent Election Form at any time. Such subsequent Election Form shall apply to any RSU that is granted to such Participant following the end of the year in which such subsequent Election Form is executed.

Section 6.    Timing and Form of Distribution.

(a)    Subject to this ‎Section 6, distribution with respect to a Participant’s Deferred Stock Unit shall be made to such Participant, as specified on the applicable Election Form, either in (i) a single lump sum or (ii) substantially equal annual installments over a period of up to five years.

(b)    The Board, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the distribution of a Participant’s Deferred Stock Unit or if such Participant experiences an unforeseeable emergency or hardship, provided that such distribution complies with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

(c)    All of a Participant’s Deferred Stock Units shall be distributed to such Participant upon the termination of such Participant’s service in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the Incentive Plan), no later than the 15^th day of the third calendar month following the termination following the Change in Control occurs.

(d)    If the Board considers a Participant to be one of the Company’s “specified employees” under Section 409A of the Code at the time of such Participant’s termination of service from the Board, any distribution that otherwise would be made to such Participant as a result of such termination from service shall not be made until the date that is six months after such termination of service, except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in such Participant’s incurring interest or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code.

(e)    Each Deferred Stock Unit shall be distributed in shares of Stock.

Section 7.    Amount of Distribution.

(a)    Each Deferred Stock Unit that is scheduled to be distributed in shares of Stock shall be allocated to a separate bookkeeping account (a “Share Account”) established and maintained by the Administrator, or the Administrator’s designee, to record the number of shares of Stock to which such Deferred Stock Unit relates. In the case of a Deferred Stock Unit, the Share Account shall reflect the number of shares of Stock deferred.

(b)    Until the distribution date applicable to a Participant’s Deferred Stock Unit that is scheduled to be distributed in shares of Stock, if the Company pays a regular or ordinary cash dividend on its Stock, the Share Account shall be credited with a number of shares of Stock determined by dividing the amount of the cash dividend by the fair market value of a share of Stock on the dividend payment date, with the value of any fractional shares paid to the Participant in cash as soon as practicable following the dividend payment date.

(c)    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, each Share Account shall be automatically adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be awarded under this Plan.

(d)    On the distribution date applicable to a Participant’s Deferred Stock Unit, such Participant shall receive that number of shares of Stock equal to the number of shares credited to the applicable Share Account as of such distribution date.

Section 8.    General Provisions Applicable to Deferrals.

(a)    Except as may be permitted by the Board, (i) no deferral and no right under such deferral shall be assignable, alienable, saleable or transferable by a Participant otherwise than by will or pursuant to ‎Section 8(b), and (i) during a Participant’s lifetime, each deferral, and each right under such deferral, shall be exercisable only by such Participant or, if permissible under applicable law, by such Participant’s guardian or legal representative. The provisions of this ‎Section 8(a) shall not apply to any deferral that has been distributed to a Participant.

(b)    A Participant may make a written designation of beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive all or part of the distributions under this Plan in the event of death at such times prescribed by the Board by using forms and following procedures approved or accepted by the Board for that purpose. Any shares of Stock that become payable upon a Participant’s death, and as to which a designation of beneficiary is not in effect, will be distributed to such Participant’s estate.

(c)    Following distribution of shares of Stock, a Participant will be the beneficial owner of the shares of Stock issued to such Participant, and will be entitled to all rights of ownership, including voting rights and the right to receive cash or stock dividends or other distributions paid on the Stock. The Company may, if it determines it is appropriate, affix any legend to the stock certificates representing shares of Stock issued in accordance with the Plan (and any stock certificates that may subsequently be issued in substitution for the original certificates). The Company may advise the transfer agent to place a stop order against such shares of Stock if it determines that such an order is necessary or advisable.

Section 9.    Amendments and Termination.

(a)    The Board, in its sole discretion, may amend, suspend or discontinue the Plan or any deferral at any time; provided that no such amendment, suspension or discontinuance shall reduce the accrued benefit of any Participant except to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law. The Board further has the right, without a Participant’s consent, to amend or modify the terms of the Plan and such Participant’s deferral to the extent that the Board deems it necessary to avoid adverse or unintended tax consequences to such Participant under federal, state or local income tax laws.

(b)    The Board, in its sole discretion, may terminate the Plan at any time, as long as such termination complies with then applicable tax and other requirements.

(c)    Such other changes to deferrals shall be permitted and honored under the Plan to the extent authorized by the Board and consistent with Code Section 409A.

Section 10.    Miscellaneous.

(a)    No Participant or other person shall have any claim to be entitled to make a deferral under the Plan, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or beneficiaries under the Plan. The terms and conditions of deferrals under the Plan need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(b)    The opportunity to make a deferral under the Plan shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Board or the Company. A Participant’s deferral under the Plan is not intended to confer any rights on such Participant except as set forth in the Plan and the applicable Election Form.

(c)    Nothing contained in the Plan shall prevent the Company from adopting or continuing in effect other or additional compensation arrangements, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

(d)    To the extent applicable, the Company shall be authorized to withhold from any distribution under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, shares of Stock, other property, net settlement, or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of such distribution and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or shares of Stock by such Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes.

(e)    If any provision of the Plan or any Election Form is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or deferral, or would disqualify the Plan or any deferral under any law deemed applicable by the Board, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be so construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Board, materially altering the intent of the Plan or such Election Form, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or deferral, and the remainder of the Plan and such Election Form shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 11.    Effective Date of the Plan. The Plan shall be effective as of the date on which the Plan is adopted by the Board (the “Effective Date”).

Section 12.    Unfunded Status of the Plan. The Plan is unfunded. The Plan, together with the applicable Election Form, shall represent at all times an unfunded and unsecured contractual obligation of the Company. Each Participant and beneficiary will be an unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to all obligations owed to them under the Plan. Amounts payable under the Plan will be satisfied solely out of the general assets of the Company subject to the claims of its creditors. No Participant or beneficiary will have any interest in any fund or in any specific asset of the Company of any kind, nor shall such Participant or beneficiary or any other person have any right to receive any payment or distribution under the Plan except as, and to the extent, expressly provided in the Plan and the applicable Election Form. Any reserve or other asset that the Company may establish or acquire to assure itself of the funds to provide payments required under the Plan shall not serve in any way as security to any Participant or beneficiary for the Company’s performance under the Plan.

Section 13.    Section 409A of the Code. With respect to deferrals that are subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the provisions of the Plan and any Election Form shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and the Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of the Plan or any term or condition of any Election Form 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.

Section 14.    Governing Law. The Plan and the Election Forms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to principles of conflicts of laws.
