Form of Performance Share Unit Restricted Stock Award Agreement for grants of Performance Share Units to Executive Officers in fiscal year 2023

1. Number of Shares.    The number of Shares to be issued to you upon settlement of your PSUs (your “PSU Shares”) as referenced in your Grant Notice will be determined under the performance vesting provisions in Paragraph 3 of this Agreement equal to a percentage (the “Applicable Percentage”) of the Maximum Number of PSU Shares set forth in your Grant Notice.  The Maximum Number of PSUs prior to performance vesting, or the resulting number of PSU Shares determined upon performance vesting, may be adjusted from time to time upon changes in capitalization of the Company pursuant to Section 18 of the Plan.

2. No Payment of Dividend Equivalents.  Dividend Equivalents are not payable with respect to your PSUs.  Following the issuance of Shares to you upon settlement of your award as provided for herein, you will then be entitled to receive dividends as and when declared upon the Shares by the Company.

3. Performance Vesting.  Your PSUs vest following a performance measurement period of one year that is the current fiscal year of the Company (the “Measurement Year”).  Following the conclusion of the Measurement Year, the Committee shall meet, either at its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting or at a special meeting of the Committee called prior to the Company’s release of its annual earnings for the Measurement Year, but in all events within sixty (60) days following the end of the Measurement Year, to certify achievement of the performance measure set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and the Applicable Percentage of the Maximum Number of PSUs and the resulting number of PSU Shares (your “Vested PSUs”) to be issued to you (the date of such certification, the “Certification Date”).  Except as otherwise provided for herein with respect to pro-rata vesting upon Retirement (as defined below) or in the event of your termination of employment by reason of death or Disability (as defined below), or as otherwise provided for herein or in the Plan or a written agreement between you and the Company, in the event of your termination of employment with the Company or a Subsidiary for any reason (“Termination of Employment”), including resignation or termination by the Company or a Subsidiary, prior to August 31 of the Measurement Year, your PSUs will be forfeited. 

4. Vesting on Retirement, Death or Disability.  In the event of your Termination of Employment by reason of your death, Disability or Retirement prior to August 31 of the Measurement Year and prior to a Change in Control, a pro-rated portion of your PSUs will remain eligible to vest pursuant to this Agreement (a) on the Certification Date based on achievement of the performance measure and determination of the Applicable Percentage as determined pursuant to Paragraph 3 or (b) if earlier, upon a Change in Control as provided in Paragraph 5 below, as applicable. If such Termination of Employment by reason of your death, Disability or Retirement occurs following a Change in Control that occurs prior to August 31 of the Measurement Year, such pro-rated vesting will be applied to the RSUs (as defined below) issued to you following such Change in Control pursuant to Paragraph 5 below. Such pro-ration will be determined on a pro-rata monthly basis, including full credit for partial months during the Measurement Year elapsed through the effective date of your Termination of Employment.  “Retirement”, for purposes of this Agreement, means your Termination of Employment (for any reason other than termination by the Company or a Subsidiary for Cause): (i) after attainment of age sixty-five (65), or (ii) after attainment of age fifty-five  (55) provided that you have been in Continuous Service with the Company or a Subsidiary for not less than ten (10) years. “Disability,” for purposes of this Agreement, means a permanent and total disability under Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, provided that such disability also qualifies as a “disability” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”). In the event of your Termination of Employment prior to Retirement by reason of your voluntary resignation or termination by the Company or a Subsidiary for reasons other than Cause, the Committee shall have discretion to provide for pro-rata vesting as provided for hereinabove.

5. Change in Control Vesting.  Except as provided for herein, the provisions of Section 19 of the Plan shall apply to your PSUs in the event of a Change in Control of the Company (as defined in the Plan).  For purposes of applying Section 19(a)(iii) of the Plan, in the event of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Measurement Year, a portion of the award equal to (a) 50% of the Maximum Number of PSUs multiplied by (b) a fraction representing the number of full or partial months during the Measurement Year elapsed through the date of the Change in Control, shall be treated as time-based Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) that will vest on the Settlement Date, subject to your continued employment through such date, and further subject to Paragraph 4 above, Section 19(a)(ii) of the Plan or as otherwise provided for in a written agreement between you and the Company, and any remaining PSUs shall be forfeited.

6. Delivery of Shares.    Subject to Paragraphs 5, 7, 8, 11 and 14 of this Agreement, your Vested PSUs shall be settled solely in a number of whole Shares (which Shares shall be Restricted Stock (as defined below) to the extent provided in Paragraph 7 below) issued to you on the earliest to occur of (the “Settlement Date”):

7. Restricted Stock.  The Shares issued to you upon settlement of your Vested PSUs on the Settlement Date shall be subject to the restrictions in this Paragraph 7 until your Termination of Employment (“Restricted Stock”).  During such period of restriction, the Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred or disposed of by you. In the event of a Change in Control, the restrictions upon sale, transfer or disposition of your Restricted Stock shall be removed as of the closing or expiration of such transaction so that the Restricted Stock may be tendered for acceptance of any cash or exchange offer made in connection with such transaction. In addition, in the event this award is settled in Shares on or following the date of a Change in Control, the restrictions in this Paragraph 7 shall not apply to any such Shares issued upon settlement of this award. Each share certificate representing Restricted Stock shall bear the following restrictive endorsements which may be removed at such time as the restrictions have expired:

8. Securities Law Compliance.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Shares may not be issued upon settlement of this award unless the Shares are then registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or, if such Shares are not then so registered, the Committee or the Board has determined that such issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  The issuance of such Shares must also comply with other applicable laws and regulations governing such Shares, and the issuance of such Shares may be delayed if the Committee or the Board determines that such issuance would not be in compliance with such laws and regulations,  provided that issuance of the Shares shall be completed as soon as reasonably practicable following the first date on which the Company anticipates or should reasonably anticipate that issuing the Shares would not cause a violation or such earlier date as required to avoid causing this award to fail to be exempt from or to otherwise comply with Section 409A of the Code.

9. Transferability.  Your PSUs are not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form satisfactory to the Company, you may designate a third party (your “Beneficiary”) who, in the event of your death, shall then be entitled to receive the Shares issuable upon settlement of this award payable as a result of your death, if any.

10. Agreement Not a Service Contract or Obligation to Continue Service.   This Agreement is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the service of the Company or Subsidiary as an employee for any period of time.  In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall obligate the Company or a Subsidiary to continue your employment for any period of time.

11. Satisfaction of Tax Withholding Obligations.

(a) At the time of issuance of Shares to you pursuant to the settlement of this award (or earlier, if applicable) to the extent required by law or applicable regulation,  the Company shall withhold from the Shares otherwise issuable to you a number of whole Shares having a Fair Market Value as of the Settlement Date equal to the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld by law.  The Fair Market Value of the withheld whole number of Shares that is in excess of the minimum amount of taxes required to be withheld shall be added to the deposit for your U.S. federal income tax withholding or, if you are an international taxpayer, such amount shall be added to the largest deposit of withheld tax required to be made by the Company or a Subsidiary on your behalf.

(b) Your Shares may not be issued unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company or Subsidiary, if any, are satisfied.  Accordingly, the Company shall have no obligation to issue a certificate for such Shares until such tax withholding obligations are satisfied or otherwise provided for.  Upon notice of the requirement for recovery from you of any amount due as a tax withholding obligation, you agree to promptly remit to the Company or Subsidiary the full amount due. 

12. Notices.   Any notices provided for in the Plan or this Agreement shall be given electronically or in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.

13. Governing Plan Document.   This Agreement is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are incorporated by reference in this Agreement.  This Agreement is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. Except as specifically provided for herein, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control.

14. Code Section 409A Compliance.  To the extent applicable, it is intended that this award and the Plan comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any related regulations or other guidance promulgated with respect to such Section by the U.S. Department of the Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service. Any provision that would cause the Plan or this award to fail to satisfy Section 409A shall have no force or effect until amended to comply with Section 409A, which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event will any Shares issuable pursuant to this award be issued later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which corresponding portion of the award has vested.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any compensation or benefits payable under this Agreement that is designated under this Agreement as payable upon your Termination of Employment shall be payable only upon your “separation from service” with the Company within the meaning of Section 409A (a “Separation from Service”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if you are deemed by the Company at the time of your Separation from Service to be a “specified employee” for purposes of Section 409A, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which you are entitled under this Agreement is required in order to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A, such portion of the Shares issuable to you pursuant to this award shall not be provided to you prior to the earlier of (x) the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of your Separation from Service with the Company or (y) the date of your death.  Upon the first business day following the expiration of the applicable foregoing period, all Shares deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be issued to you (or your estate or beneficiaries), and any remaining Shares due to you under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein. 

(c) Your right to receive any installment payments under this Agreement shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate payments and, accordingly, each such installment payment shall at all times be considered a separate and distinct payment as permitted under Section 409A.  Except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A, no payment hereunder shall be accelerated or deferred unless such acceleration or deferral would not result in additional tax or interest pursuant to Section 409A.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Change in Control would give rise to a payment or settlement event with respect to any payment or benefit under this Agreement that constitutes “nonqualified deferred compensation,” the transaction or event constituting the Change in Control must also constitute a “change in control event” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)) in order to give rise to the payment or settlement event for such payment or benefit, to the extent required by Section 409A.
