Section 8.01 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. Unless otherwise set forth in the Matching RSU Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of termination of employment, in the event that a Participant’s employment with the Participating Company terminates for any reason, (i) the Participant will cease to be a Participant in the Plan as of the Termination Date, (ii) all cash in the Participant’s Account will be distributed to the Participant as soon as practicable following such termination and (iii) all unvested Matching RSU Awards will be forfeited and no further Matching RSU Awards shall be granted. Following such termination of employment, the Broker may continue to maintain the Participant’s Share Account on behalf of the Participant; however, the Participant’s Share Account will cease to be administered under or have any other affiliation with the Plan. As of the Termination Date, as applicable, the Participant shall pay for any and all expenses and costs related to his or her Share Account, including, but not limited to the brokerage commissions on purchases of shares of Company stock made on or after the Termination Date and any other fees, commissions or charges for which the Participant would otherwise have been responsible for if he or she had continued to be a Participant in the Plan. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.01 to the contrary, the Committee will have the discretion to determine how the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or any other change or purported change in a Participant’s employment status affects a Participant’s participation in the Plan and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant or the Participant’s legal representative, conservator, guardian or beneficiary may exercise a right to purchase shares of Company Stock or have his or her Matching RSU Award vest.

Section 9.02 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. No employee, officer, member of the Committee, or designated agent of the Committee shall be subject to any liability with respect to his or her duties under the Plan unless the person acts fraudulently or in bad faith.

Section 10.01 MAXIMUM NUMBER OF SHARES. Subject to Section 10.03 below, the maximum number of shares of Company Stock, which may be allocated under the Plan pursuant to Participant Contributions and Matching RSU Awards on or after the Effective Date is 2,083,3332 shares. Shares of Company Stock purchased or issued by the Company under this Plan may be authorized and unissued shares, shares of Company Stock held in the treasury of the Company, shares of Company Stock purchased on the open market or by private purchase, or a combination of the foregoing. To the extent that a Matching RSU Award expires or is canceled, forfeited, terminated, settled in cash or otherwise is settled without issuance to the Participant of the full number of shares of Company Stock to which the award relates, the unissued shares of Company Stock will again be available for future grant under the Plan. Shares of Company Stock withheld in payment of taxes relating to a Matching RSU Award, and shares equal to the number of shares surrendered in payment taxes relating to a Matching RSU Award, shall be deemed to constitute shares not issued to the Participant and shall be deemed to again be available for future grant under the Plan; provided, however, that such shares shall not become available for issuance hereunder if either: (i) the applicable shares are withheld or surrendered following the termination of the Plan; or (ii) at the time the applicable shares are withheld or surrendered, it would constitute a material revision of the Plan subject to shareholder approval under any then-applicable rules of the national securities exchange on which the shares of Company Stock are listed.

Section 10.02 VOTING STOCK. The Participant will have no interest or voting right in shares of Company Stock to be purchased or granted under Article VI of the Plan until such shares have been posted to the Participant’s Share Account. Shares posted to a Share Account may be distributed to the Participant in accordance with procedures determined by the Company and the Broker.

Section 10.03 ADJUSTMENTS. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all rights to purchase shares of Company Stock and Matching RSU Awards granted hereunder:

(a)

In the event of (i) any dividend (other than regular cash dividends) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of Company Stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, share split, reverse share split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares of Company Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to acquire shares of Company Stock or other securities of the Company or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects the shares of Company Stock (including a Change in Control, as defined under the Omnibus Plan)), or (ii) unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, including changes in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements that the Committee determines in its sole discretion could result in substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, Participants (any event in (i) or (ii), an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee shall, in respect of any such Adjustment Event, make such proportionate substitution or adjustment, if any, as it, in its sole discretion, deems equitable, to any or all of: (A) the share limit in Section 10.1 or any other limit applicable under the Plan with respect to the number of shares which may be granted hereunder including the Match Limit; and (B) the number of shares of Company Stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) which may be purchased during an outstanding Purchase Period or issued in respect of outstanding Matching RSU Awards under the Plan or any Sub-Plan; provided, that in the case of any “equity restructuring” (within the meaning of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor pronouncement thereto)), the Committee shall make an equitable or proportionate adjustment to outstanding Matching RSU Awards to reflect such equity restructuring.

(ii)

subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, cancellation of any one or more outstanding Matching RSU Awards and payment to the holders of such Matching RSU Awards that are vested as of such cancellation (including, without limitation, any Matching RSU Awards that would vest as a result of the occurrence of such event but for such cancellation or for which vesting is accelerated by the Committee in connection with such event) the value of such Matching RSU Awards, if any, as determined by the Committee (which value, if applicable, may be based upon the price per share of Company Stock received or to be received by other shareholders of the Company in such event).

Payments to holders pursuant to clause (ii) above shall be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in the form of such other consideration necessary for a Participant to receive property, cash or securities (or combination thereof) as such Participant would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the transaction if the Participant had been, immediately prior to such transaction, the holder of the number of shares if shares of Company Stock covered by the Matching RSU Award at such time.

(c)

Other Requirements. Prior to any payment or adjustment contemplated under this Section 10.03, the Committee may require a Participant to (i) represent and warrant as to the unencumbered title to the Participant’s Matching RSU Awards, (ii) bear such Participant’s pro rata share of any post-closing indemnity obligations, and be subject to the same post-closing purchase price adjustments, escrow terms, offset rights, holdback terms, and similar conditions as the other holders of shares of Company Stock, subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code and (iii) deliver customary transfer documentation as reasonably determined by the Committee.

Section 10.04 CHANGE IN CONTROL. Upon a Change in Control, as defined under the Omnibus Plan, unless otherwise set forth in the Matching RSU Award Agreement or otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of a Change in Control, (i) all unvested Matching RSU Awards shall vest and (ii) the Plan and any Purchase Period hereunder shall terminate upon the effective date of such Change in Control and the balance of any amounts of cash in a Participant’s Account, which have not by such time been applied to the purchase of shares of Company Stock shall be returned to the Participant, as soon as reasonably practicable.

Section 11.01 AWARD AGREEMENT. Each Matching RSU Award under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Matching RSU Award Agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant to whom such Matching RSU Award was granted and shall specify the terms and conditions of the Matching RSU Award and any rules applicable thereto, including, without limitation, the effect on such Matching RSU Award of the death, disability or termination of a Participant or of such other events as may be determined by the Committee. For purposes of the Plan, a Matching RSU Award Agreement may be in any such form (written or electronic) as determined by the Committee (including, without limitation, a Committee resolution, an employment agreement, a notice, a certificate or a letter) evidencing the Matching RSU Award. The Committee need not require a Matching RSU Award Agreement to be signed by the Participant or a duly authorized representative of the Company. The Committee may approve of different Matching RSU Award Agreements for each jurisdiction where Participants participate in the Plan.

(a)

The Board reserves the right to amend, modify or terminate the Plan at any time; provided, however, that no amendment that requires stockholder approval in order for the Plan to continue to comply with the New York Stock Exchange listing standards or any rule promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities exchange on which the securities of the Company are listed shall be effective unless such amendment shall be approved by the requisite vote of stockholders of the Company entitled to vote thereon within the time period required under such applicable listing standard or rule. Upon termination of the Plan, all cash in the Participant’s Account will be returned to the Participants as soon as practicable. The Broker may continue to maintain the Participant’s Share Account on behalf of the Participant; however, the Participant’s Share Account will cease to be administered under or have any other affiliation with the Plan, and the Participant shall thereafter be responsible for any and all expenses and costs related to his or her Share Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment or termination shall affect rights previously granted, nor may an amendment make any change in any right previously granted, which adversely affects the rights of any Participant without the consent of such Participant. The Committee may, to the extent consistent with the terms of the Plan and any applicable Matching RSU Award Agreement, in its sole discretion, waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Matching RSU Award theretofore granted or the associated Matching RSU Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively (including after a Participant’s termination); provided, that, other than pursuant to Section 10.03, any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant with respect to any Matching RSU Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant.

(b)

Without stockholder approval and without regard to whether any Participant rights may be considered to have been “adversely affected,” the Committee shall be entitled to, in addition to, and without limitation with respect to, what is permitted pursuant to Section 11.02(a), cancel or change the purchase periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during a purchase period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed enrollment forms, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of shares of Company Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Base Earnings, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Committee determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the Plan.

(a)

A Participant shall be required to pay to the Company or a Participating Company, as applicable, an amount in cash (by check or wire transfer) equal to the aggregate amount of any income, employment, and/or other applicable taxes that are statutorily required to be withheld in respect of a Matching RSU Award. Alternatively, the Company or the applicable Participating Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to satisfy this requirement by withholding such amount from any cash compensation or other cash amounts owing to a Participant.

(b)

Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may (but is not obligated to), in its sole discretion, permit or require a Participant to satisfy all or any portion of the minimum income, employment and/or other applicable taxes that are statutorily required to be withheld with respect to a Matching RSU Award by: (A) the delivery of shares of Company Stock (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest) that have been both held by the Participant and vested for at least six months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting treatment under applicable accounting standards) having an aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Committee) equal to such minimum statutorily required withholding liability (or portion thereof); or (B) having the Company withhold from the shares of Company Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable to, or that would otherwise be retained by, the Participant upon settlement of the Matching RSU Award, as applicable, a number of shares of Company Stock with an aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Committee) equal to an amount, subject to clause (iii) below, not in excess of such minimum statutorily required withholding liability (or portion thereof).

(c)

The Committee, subject to its having considered the applicable accounting impact of any such determination, has full discretion to allow Participants to satisfy, in whole or in part, any additional income, employment and/or other applicable taxes payable by them with respect to a Matching RSU Award by electing to have the Company withhold from the shares of Company Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable to, or that would otherwise be retained by, a Participant upon the settlement of the Matching RSU Award, as applicable, shares of Company Stock having an aggregate fair market value that is greater than the applicable minimum required statutory withholding liability (but such withholding may in no event be in excess of the maximum statutory withholding amount(s) in a Participant’s relevant tax jurisdictions).

Section 11.04 BENEFITS NOT ALIENABLE. Benefits under the Plan may not be assigned or alienated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, except as expressly permitted in this Plan. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect.

Section 11.05 NO ENLARGEMENT OF EMPLOYEE RIGHTS. This Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Participating Company and shall not be deemed to constitute a contract between the Participating Company and any Eligible Person or to be consideration for, an inducement to or a condition of the employment of any Eligible Person.

Section 11.06 GOVERNING LAW. THIS PLAN AND ITS ENFORCEMENT AND ANY CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Each Participant who participates in the Plan or accepts an Matching RSU Award hereby (i) agrees that any action, directly or indirectly, arising out of, under or relating to the Plan or any Matching RSU Award hereunder shall exclusively be brought in and shall exclusively be heard and determined by either the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in Manhattan or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and (ii) solely in connection with the action(s) contemplated by subsection (i) hereof, (A) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts identified in subsection (i) hereof, (B)

EACH PARTICIPANT WHO PARTICIPATES IN THE PLAN OR ACCEPTS A MATCHING RSU AWARD IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING INSTITUTED BY OR AGAINST SUCH PARTICIPANT IN RESPECT OF THE PARTICIPANT’S RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

(a)

The obligation of the Company to allow Participants to purchase shares of Company Stock or settle Matching RSU Awards in shares of Company Stock or other consideration shall be subject to compliance with applicable law. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of the Plan or any Matching RSU Award to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to sell or to offer to sell, and shall be prohibited from selling or offering to sell, any shares of Company Stock pursuant to the Plan or a Matching RSU Award unless such shares have been properly registered for sale pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with the Securities and Exchange Commission or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel (if the Company has requested such an opinion), satisfactory to the Company, that such shares may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale under the Securities Act any of the shares of Company Stock to be offered or sold under the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to provide that all shares of Company Stock shall be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, the applicable Matching RSU Award Agreement and applicable law, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on certificates representing shares of Company Stock of the Company issued under the Plan to make appropriate reference to such restrictions or may cause such shares of Company Stock issued under the Plan in book-entry form to be held subject to the Company’s instructions or subject to appropriate stop-transfer orders. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee reserves the right to add, at any time, any additional terms or provisions to any Matching RSU Award granted under the Plan that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable in order that such Matching RSU Award complies with the legal requirements of any governmental entity to whose jurisdiction the Matching RSU Award is subject.

(b)

The Committee may cancel a Purchase Period or a Matching RSU Award or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or contractual restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of shares of Company Stock from the public markets, the Company’s issuance of shares of Company Stock to the Participant, the Participant’s acquisition of shares of Company Stock from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of shares of Company Stock to the public markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable. If the Committee determines to cancel all or any portion of a Purchase Period or a Matching RSU Award in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall, subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, provide the Participant with a cash payment of Participant Contributions with respect to a cancelled Purchase Period or cash or equity subject to deferred vesting and delivery consistent with the vesting restrictions applicable to cancelled Matching RSU Awards, or the underlying shares in respect thereof.

Section 11.09 RIGHT TO OFFSET. The Company will have the right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Company Stock under the Plan or any Matching RSU Award Agreement any outstanding amounts (including, without limitation, travel and entertainment or advance account balances, loans, repayment obligations under any Matching RSU Awards, or amounts repayable to the Company pursuant to tax equalization, housing, automobile or other employee programs) that the Participant then owes to any to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any amounts the Committee otherwise deems appropriate pursuant to any tax equalization policy or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Matching RSU Award is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Committee will have no right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Company Stock under the Plan or any Matching RSU Award Agreement if such offset could subject the Participant to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A of the Code in respect of an outstanding Matching RSU Award.

(a)

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, it is intended that the provisions of the Plan be exempt from, or comply with, Section 409A of the Code, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Each Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or in respect of such Participant in connection with the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Company or any Participating Company shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold such Participant (or any beneficiary) harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. With respect to any Matching RSU Award that is considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, references in the Plan to “termination of employment” (and substantially similar phrases) shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. For the purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each of the payments that may be made in respect of any Matching RSU Award granted under the Plan is designated as a separate payment.

(b)

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, no payments in respect of any Matching RSU Awards that are “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code and which would otherwise be payable upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) shall be made to such Participant prior to the date that is six months after the date of such Participant’s “separation from service” or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death. Following any applicable six-month delay, all such delayed payments will be paid in a single lump sum on the earliest date permitted under Section 409A of the Code that is also a business day.

(c)

Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in a Matching RSU Award Agreement or otherwise, in the event that the timing of payments in respect of any Matching RSU Award (that would otherwise be considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code) are accelerated upon the occurrence of (A) a Change in Control, no such acceleration shall be permitted unless the event giving rise to the Change in Control satisfies the definition of a change in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation pursuant to Section 409A of the Code or (B) a disability, no such acceleration shall be permitted unless the disability also satisfies the definition of “disability” pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

Section 11.11 RULES FOR NON-US JURISDICTIONS. The Committee may adopt rules or procedures relating to the operation and administration of this Plan to accommodate the specific requirements of local laws and procedures. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding handling of payroll deductions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, payroll tax, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates, which vary with local requirements. The Committee may also adopt Sub-Plans applicable to particular affiliates of the Company or locations. The rules of such sub-plans may take precedence over other provisions of this Plan, with the exception of Section 10.01, but unless otherwise superseded by the terms of such Sub-Plan, the provisions of this Plan shall govern the operation of such Sub-Plan. The parties declare that it was their wish that this Plan and all documents or notices in connection herewith be drawn up in the English Language.
