Coverage under Recoupment Policy. By accepting this Award, Participant hereby agrees that should Participant at this time be, or at any time hereafter become, either an executive officer of the Corporation subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or a participant in the Corporation’s Performance Improvement Incentive Plan, then:

 

(a)                                 Participant shall be subject to the Matson, Inc. Policy Regarding Recoupment of Certain Compensation, effective as of January 1, 2011, the terms of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference and receipt of a copy of which Participant hereby acknowledges; and

 



 

(b)                                 any incentive compensation that is paid or granted to, or received by, Participant on or after January 1, 2011 (including any incentive compensation that is paid to, or received by, Participant on or after January 1, 2011 pursuant to an incentive compensation award made to Participant prior to January 1, 2011, whether the award was made by the Corporation or any other predecessor entity) and during the three-year period preceding the date on which the Corporation is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material non-compliance with any applicable financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws shall, accordingly, be subject to recovery and recoupment pursuant to the terms of such policy.
