The Plan, the Notice, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement and this Agreement (including all Schedules and Exhibits thereto) constitute the entire agreement of the parties and supersede in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the Participant with respect to the subject matter hereof.

6.12    Certain Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (or any other agreement entered into by and between the Company and the Participant, or any incentive or retention arrangement or plan offered by the Company), in the event that the amount or benefit paid or distributed to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement, taken together with any amounts or benefits otherwise paid to the Participant by the Company or any Affiliate (the “Total Payments”) would constitute an “excess parachute payment” as defined in Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), and would thereby subject the Participant to any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code or any successor provision thereto (an “Excise Tax”), the provisions of this Section 6.12 shall apply. If the aggregate present value (as determined for purposes of Section 280G of the Code) of the Total Payment exceeds the amount which can be paid to the Participant without Participant incurring an Excise Tax, then, solely to the extent that the Participant would be better off on an after tax basis by receiving the maximum amount which may be paid hereunder without the Participant becoming subject to the Excise Tax, as determined by a nationally recognized accounting firm designated by the Company prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control, the amounts payable to Participant under this Agreement (or any other agreement by and between the Participant and Company or any of its Affiliates or pursuant to any incentive arrangement or plan offered by the Company) shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the maximum amount which may be paid hereunder without the Participant becoming subject to the Excise Tax. In the event a Participant receives reduced payments and benefits as a result of application of this Section 6.12, the Participant shall have the right to designate which of the payments and benefits otherwise set forth herein (or any other agreement between the Company and the Participant or any incentive or retention arrangement or plan offered by the Company) shall be received in connection with the application of the reduced payments, subject to the following sentence. Reduction shall be made in the following order: (i) at the discretion of the Participant, payments that are valued in full under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24 and are not subject to Section 409A of the Code, (ii) payments that are valued in full under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24 and are subject to Section 409A of the Code, with the amounts that are payable last reduced first, (iii) at the discretion of the Participant, payments that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24 and are not subject to Section 409A of

the Code and (iv) payments that are valued at less than full value under Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1, Q&A 24 and are subject to Section 409A of the Code, with the amounts that are payable last reduced first.

6.13    Section 409A. The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under this Agreement and the Award be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Code, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this Agreement and the Award shall be interpreted and administered to be in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment with the Company for purposes of any payments under this Agreement and the Award which are subject to Section 409A of the Code until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under this Agreement and the Award shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, and any payments described in this Agreement and the Award that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this Agreement and the Award during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the Participant’s death). The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in this Agreement and the Award will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant understands and agrees that he or she shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A.

6.14    Disclosure Regarding Use of Personal Information.

(a)    Definition and Use of “Personal Information”. In connection with the grant of the Award, and any other award under other incentive award programs, and the implementation and administration of any such program, including, without limitation, the Participant’s actual participation, or consideration by the Company for potential future participation, in any program at any time, it is or may become necessary for the Company to collect, transfer, use, and hold certain personal information regarding Participant in and/or outside of Participant’s country of employment.
