2.Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the following shall be the applicable vesting schedule:

(a)if (i) your grant of Options is assumed by the surviving entity of the Change of Control (or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with the Change of Control in a manner approved by the Committee) or (ii) the Company is the surviving entity of the Change of Control, and (1) your employment is terminated without Cause, including termination resulting from death or Disability (as defined in the Plan), or (2) you resign for Good Reason (as defined below), in each case, prior to the second anniversary of the effective date of the Change of Control, all unvested Options will vest immediately upon such termination or resignation; and

(b)if (i) your grant of Options is not assumed by the surviving entity of the Change of Control (or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with the Change of Control in a manner approved by the Committee) and (ii) the Company is not the surviving entity of the Change of Control, all unvested Options will vest immediately upon such Change of Control.

(c)Solely for purposes of this Award Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean your resignation within 90 days after (but in all cases prior to the second anniversary of a Change of Control): (i) a reduction in your base salary of 10% or more (unless the reduction is applicable to all similarly situated employees); (ii) a reduction in your annual short-term bonus target of 10% or more (unless the reduction is applicable to all similarly situated employees); (iii) a significant diminution in your job responsibilities, duties or authority; (iv) a change in the geographic location of your primary reporting location of more than 50 miles; and/or (v) any other action or inaction that constitutes a material breach by the Company of this Award Agreement. A termination by you shall not constitute termination for Good Reason unless you first deliver to the General Counsel of the Company written notice (1) stating that you intend to resign for Good Reason pursuant to this Participant Award Agreement, and (2) setting forth with specificity the occurrence deemed to give rise to a right to terminate for Good Reason (which notice must be given no later than 90 days after the initial occurrence of such event). The Company shall have a reasonable period of time (not less than 30 days) to take action to correct, rescind or substantially reverse the occurrence supporting termination for Good Reason as identified by you. Failure by the Company to act or respond to the written notice shall not be deemed to be an admission that Good Reason exists.

3.Termination of Employment. Subject to Section 2(a) above, and except as otherwise provided in accordance with any written employment-related agreement that you have with the Company (including any confidentiality, non-solicitation, non-competition, change of control or similar agreement) the following will occur upon your termination of Service to the Company or any Affiliate.

(a)Cause. Upon termination of your employment for Cause, all unvested Options and any unexercised vested Options shall be forfeited immediately. If the Company terminates your employment for Cause, the Company shall give you written notice setting forth the reason for your termination not later than 30 days after such termination.

(b)Termination.  Upon termination of your employment for any other reason, whether voluntarily (including retirement) or involuntarily, all unvested Options shall be forfeited immediately. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award Agreement, if your employment is terminated voluntarily (including retirement) or your employment is terminated involuntarily without Cause and you remain on the board of directors of the Company or any Affiliate whose equity is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market following such termination of employment, then your unvested Options shall not be forfeited but shall continue to vest in accordance with the above provisions for as long as you remain on such board of directors, in which case any references herein to your employment shall be deemed to include your continued service on such board.

(c)Exercise. Upon a voluntary or involuntary termination of your employment for any reason other than Cause, any unexercised vested Options held on the date of termination shall remain exercisable for the remaining original term of the Options.

4.Committee Discretion to Accelerate Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for accelerated vesting of the Options at any time and for any or no reason.
