2. Termination of Employment

(a) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Plan or in Section 2(b) below, in the event of the Participant's Termination of Employment (for any reason whatsoever, whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or providing services, or the terms of the Participant's employment or service agreement, if any), the Participant's right to vest in the Stock Option will cease as of such date of Termination of Employment and any unvested portion of the Stock Option will be forfeited effective as of such date; furthermore, the Participant's right to exercise the Stock Option after Termination of Employment, if any, will be measured by reference to such date of Termination of Employment and in accordance with the applicable post-termination exercise period set forth in the Plan. Upon such Termination of Employment, the Participant shall not be entitled by way of compensation for loss of office or otherwise howsoever to any sum or other benefit to compensate the Participant for the loss of any rights under this Agreement or the Plan.

(c) For purposes of the Stock Option, the date of Termination of Employment will be the date the Participant is no longer actively providing services to the Corporation or any Subsidiary or Affiliate (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where the Participant is employed or providing services, or the terms of the Participant's employment or service agreement, if any). The Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Participant is no longer actively employed or providing services for the purposes of his or her Stock Option (including whether the Participant may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence).

(d) The Participant agrees that, if the Participant exercises any portion of the Stock Option within two years prior to or any time after (i) the Participant's Termination of Employment for Cause, or (ii) the Participant's voluntary Termination of Employment within two years after any event or circumstance that would have been grounds for a Termination of Employment for Cause, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover from the Participant, at any time within two years following such exercise, and the Participant shall pay over to the Corporation on demand, an amount equal to the excess of (x) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such exercise on the date of exercise over (y) the aggregate exercise price of the Common Stock subject to such exercise.

3. Non-Transferability of the Stock Option

Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(j) of the Plan or as determined by the Committee, the Stock Option is not transferable except by will or by laws of descent and distribution.

4. Adjustments in the Event of Change in Stock; Change in Control

Upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the Corporation's Common Stock contemplated by Section 3(d) of the Plan, the Committee shall make adjustments in accordance with such Section. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event of a Change in Control, the provisions of Section 10 of the Plan shall apply.

5. Taxes and Withholding

i.The Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Corporation or, if different, the Subsidiary or Affiliate which employs the Participant or for which the Participant otherwise renders services (the "Employer"), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Participant's participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Participant (the "Tax-Related Items") is and remains the Participant's responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any, actually withheld by the Corporation or the Employer. The Participant further acknowledges that the Corporation and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Stock Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting and exercise of the Stock Option, the receipt of cash or any dividends and the subsequent sale of the Shares issued at exercise of the Stock Option; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Award or any aspect of the Stock Option to reduce or eliminate the Participant's liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, the Participant acknowledges that, if the Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Corporation and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(b) The Participant agrees to make, prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation and/or the Employer (or former employer) to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Corporation and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy any applicable withholding obligations with regard to all applicable Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

(1) withholding from the Participant's wages or other cash compensation paid to the Participant by the Corporation or the Employer; or

(2) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Stock Option either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Corporation (on the Participant's behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); or

(3) withholding in Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Stock Option, provided, however, that if the Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Corporation under the Exchange Act, then the Corporation will withhold from proceeds of the sale of Shares upon the relevant tax withholding event, unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable tax or securities law or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case, the obligation for Tax-Related Items will be satisfied by method (1) above.

(c) The Corporation may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates in the Participant's country, including maximum rates applicable in the Participant's jurisdiction(s), in which case the Participant may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the Common Stock equivalent. If the Participant does not receive a refund of any over-withheld amount from the Corporation or the Employer, the Participant may seek a refund from the applicable tax authorities. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares subject to the exercised Stock Option,

notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

(d) Finally, the Participant agrees to pay to the Corporation or the Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Corporation or the Employer may be required to withhold as a result of the Participant's participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. The obligations of the Corporation under this Agreement shall be conditioned on compliance by the Participant with this Section 5. The Corporation may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if the Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section 5.

6. Other Restrictions

(a) The Participant acknowledges that the Participant is subject to the Corporation's policies regarding compliance with securities laws, including but not limited to its Securities Trading Policy (as in effect from time to time and any successor policies), and, pursuant to these policies, the Participant may be prohibited from selling Shares issued upon the exercise of any stock option other than during an open trading window.

(b) The Participant acknowledges that the Participant may be subject to the Corporation's Stock Ownership Policy and/or Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy (as such may be amended from time to time, or any successor policies thereto), applicable to certain senior executives of the Corporation, and the Stock Option and this Agreement shall constitute good and valuable consideration for such acknowledgment and agreement. Further, the Stock Option (and any shares of Common Stock issued under this Award or the aggregate Fair Market Value thereof, less the aggregate exercise price paid) is subject to recoupment as may be required by applicable law, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any implementing regulations thereunder and any compensation recovery policy otherwise required by applicable law.

(c) The Participant acknowledges that he or she may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and, if different, the Participant's country, the Agent's country and/or the country where Shares are listed, which may affect the Participant's ability to directly or indirectly, for him- or herself or for a third party, accept or otherwise acquire, or sell, attempt to sell or otherwise dispose of, Shares or rights to Shares (e.g., the Stock Option) under the Plan during such times as the Participant is considered to have "inside information" regarding the Corporation (as defined by the laws or regulations in the applicable jurisdiction) or the trade in Shares or the trade in rights to Shares under the Plan. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Participant places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Participant could be prohibited from (1) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a "need to know" basis) and (2) "tipping" third parties or otherwise causing them to buy or sell securities; including "third parties" who are fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to the restrictions imposed under the Corporation's Securities Trading Policy or other insider trading policy. The Participant further acknowledges that it is the Participant's responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions and that the Participant should speak to a personal legal advisor on this matter.

(d) Notwithstanding any other terms and conditions of the Plan or this Agreement, unless there is an available exemption from any registration, qualification or other legal requirement applicable to the Shares, the Corporation shall not be required to deliver any Shares issuable upon exercise of the

Stock Option prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of the Shares under any U.S. or non-U.S. local, state or federal securities, exchange control or other law, or under rulings or regulations of the Commission or of any other governmental regulatory body, or prior to obtaining any approval or other clearance from any local, state, federal or foreign governmental agency, which registration, qualification or approval the Corporation shall, in its absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable. The Participant understands that the Corporation is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with the Commission or any state or non-U.S. securities commission or to seek approval or clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the Shares. Further, the Participant agrees that the Corporation shall have unilateral authority to amend the Plan and the Agreement without the Participant's consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws applicable to issuance of Shares.
