A “Non-Control Acquisition” shall mean an acquisition by (a) an employee benefit plan (or a trust forming a part thereof) maintained by (1) the Company or (2) any corporation or other Person of which a majority of its voting power or its voting equity securities or equity interest is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (for purposes of this definition, a “Related Entity”), (b) the Company or any Related Entity, or (c) any Person in connection with a “Non-Control Transaction” (as hereinafter defined);

(B) the individuals who were members of the Incumbent Board immediately prior to the execution of the agreement providing for such Merger Event constitute at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of (x) the Surviving Corporation, if there is no Parent Corporation, or (y) if there are one or more Parent Corporations, the ultimate Parent Corporation; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change of Control shall not be deemed to occur solely because any Person (the “Subject Person”) acquired Beneficial Ownership of more than the permitted amount of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the Company which, by reducing the number of Shares or Voting Securities then outstanding, increases the proportional number of shares Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, provided that if a Change of Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of Shares or Voting Securities by the Company, and after such share acquisition by the Company, the

Subject Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of any additional Shares or Voting Securities which increases the percentage of the then outstanding Shares or Voting Securities Beneficially Owned by the Subject Person, then a Change of Control shall occur.

4.1     Award Schedules. For each Performance Period with respect to which an Award may be earned by a Participant under the Plan, prior to the expiration of the Determination Period (or at such other time as the Committee may determine in its discretion), the Committee shall establish for such Performance Period an Award Schedule for each Participant.

Award Schedules may vary from Performance Period to Performance Period and from Participant to Participant.

4.2     Determination of Awards. A Participant shall be eligible to receive payment with respect to an Award only to the extent that the Performance Goal(s) for such Award are achieved and the Participant earns such Award based on the application of the Award Formula against the Performance Goal(s) for the applicable Performance Period. As soon as practicable after the close of each Performance Period, the Committee shall meet to review and determine whether, and to what extent, the Performance Goals for the Performance Period have been achieved and, if so, to calculate the amount of the Award earned by each Participant for such Performance Period based upon such Participant’s Award Formula.

The Committee may, subject to such terms and conditions and within such limits as it may from time to time establish, permit one or more Participants to defer the receipt of amounts due under the Plan in a manner consistent with the requirements of Code Section 409A. If any Award which is earned pursuant to this Section 4 is paid prior to the time determined when the Award was initially granted, the amount of such Award shall be reduced by an appropriate discount factor determined by the Committee.    

4.4      Change of Control. All Performance Goals and other conditions to payment of Awards shall be deemed to be achieved or fulfilled as of the time of a Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, the Company shall promptly pay each Participant 100% of the Participant’s Target Award (as established in the applicable Award Schedules) for the Performance Periods in which the Change of Control occurs. In addition, if at the time of a Change of Control there has been no determination or payment of an Award for the preceding Performance Periods, the Company shall pay to each individual who was a Participant with respect to such prior Performance Periods the full amount to which he or she would have been paid assuming the Committee determines that the Participant satisfied the applicable Performance Goals for such Performance Periods without reduction in Award payments. for factors other than those resulting from the failure to satisfy the applicable Performance Goals. Payments under this Section 4.4 shall be made not later than ten (10) days following the Change of Control.

5.1     Termination of Employment.

or she has received written notice from the Company identifying the actions or omissions constituting willful and continued failure to perform, (ii) Participant’s conviction or plea to a felony, misdemeanor or any other crime, (iii) Participant’s actions or omissions that constitute fraud, dishonesty or gross misconduct, (iv) Participant’s breach of any fiduciary duty that causes material injury to the Company, (v) Participant’s breach of any duty causing material injury to the Company, (vi) Participant’s inability to perform his or her material duties to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company due to alcohol or other substance abuse, or (vii) any violation of the Company’s policies or procedures involving discrimination, harassment, substance abuse or work place violence. Any termination for Cause pursuant to this Section shall be given to the Participant in writing and shall set forth in detail all acts or omissions upon which the Company is relying to terminate the Participant for Cause. With respect to Participants other than the Chief Executive Officer: Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Legal Officer (the Executive Group), a determination of cause shall be made by the Chief Executive Officer.

With respect to the Executive Group, before any determination by the Company that Cause exists to terminate the Participant, the Company shall cause a special meeting of the Committee to be called and held at a time mutually convenient to the Committee and Participant, but in no event later than ten (10) business days after Participant’s receipt of the notice that the Company intends to terminate the Participant for Cause. Participant shall have the right to appear before such special meeting of the Committee with legal counsel of his or her choosing to refute such allegations and shall have a reasonable period of time to cure any actions or omissions which provide the Company with a basis to terminate the Participant for Cause (provided that such cure period shall not exceed 30 days). A majority of the members of the Committee must affirm that Cause exists to terminate the Participant. No finding by the Committee will prevent the Participant’s contesting such determination through appropriate legal proceedings, provided that the Participant’s sole remedy shall be to sue for damages, not reinstatement, and damages shall be limited to those that would be paid to the Participant if he or she had been terminated without Cause.

•Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3 hereof, in the event that a Participant dies after an Award has been granted to the Participant but before it has been determined to be earned pursuant to Section 4.2, there shall be paid to the Participant’s Beneficiary or estate an amount equal to the full targeted Award that the Committee was authorized in accordance with the Award Formula to pay to the Participant pursuant to Section 4.3 had his or her employment continued through the end of the Performance Period and had all Performance Goals been met. Payment of all such Awards shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination of the Participant’s employment as a result of death.

•Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3 hereof and if and to the extent permitted under Section 409A of the Code, in the event that a Participant’s employment is terminated by reason of Disability or Retirement after an Award has been granted to the Participant but before it has been determined to be earned pursuant to Section 4.2, there shall be paid to the Participant a pro-rated amount

equal to the Award payment that the Committee determines would have been paid to the Participant pursuant to Section 4.3 had his or her employment continued through the end of the Performance Periods, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of completed calendar months of employment during the applicable Performance Period and the denominator of which is the total number of months in the applicable Performance Period. Payment of all such Awards shall be made at the same time as Awards are paid to Participants who remained employed through the end of the applicable Performance Period.
