(a) Measurement Period Performance. Subject to the requirements of subparagraph 3(b), the Participant will earn the right to receive payments determined in accordance with the following table based on the TRS for the Measurement Period, the number of Shares shown in the table and the Fair Market Value of that number of Shares on May 31, 2008:

One-fourth of the amount determined under subparagraph 3(a) shall be paid to the Participant as soon as practicable after May 31, 2010, if the Participant’s employment with the Company or an Affiliate continues from the Date of Award until such date. Notwithstanding the two preceding sentences, the unpaid balance of the amount earned under subparagraph 3(a) shall be paid to the Participant if the Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or an Affiliate from the Date of Award until either a Control Change Date or the date that the Participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or with Good Reason or ends on account of the Participant’s death or Disability.
