Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement have the following meanings:

Other capitalized terms used in this Award Agreement have the meanings given in the Plan. The parties agree as follows:

(a)     Fifty Percent (50%) of the Award shall vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date. (b)     Fifty Percent (50%) of the Award shall vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date.

The Award shall expire ten years from the Grant Date.

(a)    Share Withholding or Delivery. The Participant shall be permitted to satisfy the Company's withholding tax requirements with respect to the Option by electing to have the Company withhold sufficient Shares otherwise issuable to the Participant to meet the withholding tax requirements; provided that, to the extent Shares are withheld to satisfy taxes, the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total minimum statutory tax withholding obligations associated with the transaction to the extent needed for the Company and its Subsidiaries to avoid an accounting charge until Accounting Standards Update 2016-09 applies to the Company, after which time the amount to be withheld may not exceed the total maximum statutory tax rates associated with the transaction. Such election shall be irrevocable, and shall be subject to disapproval, in whole or in part, by the Company. Such election shall be made according to such rules and regulations and in such form as the Company shall determine.

(b)    Other Withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Award, if the Company or any Affiliate is required to withhold any foreign, Federal, state or local taxes or other amounts in connection

with the Award, then the Company may deduct (or require an Affiliate to deduct) such taxes or other amounts from any payments of any kind otherwise due the Participant to satisfy such tax obligations.

(a)    General. In the event a Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated for any reason, except Retirement, death, Disability, Disposition of Assets (as defined below), Disposition of a Subsidiary (as defined below), Outsourcing Agreement (as defined below), involuntary termination by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause prior to September 2, 2018 or Cause, a Participant may exercise this Award (to the extent vested and exercisable as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment) for a period of ninety (90) days after the date of the Participant’s termination of employment, but not later than the Award’s expiration date. Thereafter, all rights to exercise the Award shall terminate. Any portion of this Award that is not, or does not become, vested and exercisable as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of such termination of employment.

(b)    Retirement. If the Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate by reason of Retirement at a time when the Participant’s employment could not have been terminated for Cause, then the Award shall become exercisable with respect to a pro rata portion of the Award and will remain exercisable (to the extent vested upon Retirement) for the life of the grant. The pro rata portion of the Award that shall vest upon the Participant’s Retirement shall be calculated as follows: (i) the total number of Options or SARs subject to this Award multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the total number of full months that the Participant was employed during the Award’s original vesting period and the denominator of which equals the total number of months in the Award’s original vesting period, less (iii) the number of Options or SARs that previously vested in the normal course as of the Participant’s last day of employment. For the avoidance of doubt, any portion of this Award that is not, or does not become, vested and exercisable as of the date of the Participant’s Retirement shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of such Retirement.

(c)    Death or Disability. If the Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company or any Affiliate by reason of death or Disability at a time when the Participant could not be terminated for Cause, then the Award shall become exercisable in full without regard to any vesting requirements, and may be exercised by the Participant at any time within three (3) years after the date of such termination, but not later than the Award’s expiration date. In the case of the Participant’s death, the Award may be exercised by the person to whom the Award is transferred by will or by applicable laws of descent and distribution. In the event of the death of a Participant who has had a Retirement or ceased to be an employee by reason of Disability, the Award may be exercised by the person to whom the Option is transferred, by will or by applicable laws of descent and distribution, as if the Participant had remained living under Section 6(b) or this Section 6(c), as applicable.

(d)    Divestiture or Outsourcing. If the Participant’s employment with the Company and its Affiliates terminates as a result of a Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement (each as defined below) at a time when the Participant could not have been terminated for Cause, then the Award shall become exercisable with respect to a pro rata portion of the Award and will remain exercisable (to the extent vested upon the Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement) until the earlier of three (3) years after the date of such Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement and the Award’s expiration date. The pro rata portion of the Award that shall vest upon termination shall be calculated as follows: (i) the total number of Options or SARs subject to this Award multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which equals the total number of full months that the Participant was employed during the Award’s original vesting period and the denominator of which equals the total number of months in the Award’s original vesting period, less (iii) the number of Options or SARs that previously vested in the normal course as of the Participant’s last day of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Participant shall not be eligible for such pro rata vesting if (i) the Participant’s termination of employment occurs on or prior to the closing date of

such Disposition of Assets or Disposition of a Subsidiary, as applicable, or on such later date as is specifically provided in the applicable transaction agreement or related agreements, or on the effective date of such Outsourcing Agreement applicable to the Participant (the “Applicable Employment Date”), and (ii) the Participant is offered Comparable Employment (as defined below) with the buyer, successor company or outsourcing agent, as applicable, but does not commence such employment on the Applicable Employment Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any portion of this Award that is not, or does not become, vested and exercisable as of the date of the Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement shall automatically be forfeited as of the date of such Disposition of Assets, Disposition of a Subsidiary or Outsourcing Agreement, as applicable.

For purposes of this Section 7(d), “Comparable Employment” shall mean employment (i) with base compensation and benefits (not including perquisites, allowances or long term incentive compensation) that, taken as whole, is not materially reduced from that which is in effect immediately prior to the Participant’s termination of employment and (ii) that is at a geographic location no more than 50 miles from the Participant’s principal place of employment in effect immediately prior to the Participant’s termination of employment; “Disposition of Assets” shall mean the disposition by the Company or an Affiliate by which the Participant is employed of all or a portion of the assets used by the Company or Affiliate in a trade or business to an unrelated corporation or entity; “Disposition of a Subsidiary” shall mean the disposition by the Company or an Affiliate of its interest in a subsidiary or controlled entity to an unrelated individual or entity (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes a spin-off or split-off or similar transaction), provided that such subsidiary or entity ceases to be controlled by the Company as a result of such disposition; and “Outsourcing Agreement” shall mean a written agreement between the Company or an Affiliate and an unrelated third party (“Outsourcing Agent”) pursuant to which (i) the Company transfers the performance of services previously performed by employees of the Company or Affiliate to the Outsourcing Agent, and (ii) the Outsourcing Agent is obligated to offer employment to any employee whose employment is being terminated as a result of or in connection with said Outsourcing Agreement.

(e)    Termination for Cause. If the Participant’s employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates is terminated for Cause, then such termination shall cause the immediate cancellation and forfeiture of any Award, regardless of vesting; and any pending exercises shall be cancelled on the date of termination.
