    9

(a)If any of the following events occur, as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole and absolute discretion, a Participant shall forfeit all Awards under the Plan and the Compensation Committee has the discretion to recover Award Payments that were paid under the Plan to the Participant (or, in the case of a deferred incentive, earned by such Participant) in the three-year period prior to the date the misconduct was discovered or prior to the date the full impact of the misconduct was known, as determined by the Compensation Committee:

            (i)    in the event a Participant violates any agreement in place with the Company or a Subsidiary, such as a non-competition agreement, settlement agreement or confidentiality agreement, the violation of which is injurious to the Company or any Subsidiary, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise;

            (ii)    in the event of a Participant’s fraudulent conduct or willful engagement in conduct, in each case which is injurious to the Company or any Subsidiary, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise; or

            (iii)    in the event a Participant violates the Company’s Code of Conduct or applicable law, in each case which is injurious to the Company or any Subsidiary, monetarily, reputationally or otherwise.

For purposes of clause (ii) above, no act, or failure to act, on the Participant’s part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by the Participant not in good faith and without reasonable belief that the Participant’s act, or failure to act, was in the best interest of the Company or a Subsidiary.

In the event of a dispute concerning the application of this Section 9.8(a), no claim by the Company shall be given effect unless the Board determines that there is clear and convincing evidence that the Compensation Committee has the right to cancel or recover an Award or Award Payment hereunder, and the Board finding to that effect is adopted by the affirmative vote of not less than three quarters of the entire membership of the Board (after reasonable notice to the Participant and an opportunity for the Participant to provide information to the Board in such manner as the Board, in its sole discretion, deems to be appropriate under the circumstances).

(b)In its sole and absolute discretion, the Compensation Committee may, to the full extent permitted by governing law, in all appropriate cases, recover Award Payments that were paid under the Plan to the Participant (or, in the case of a deferred incentive, earned by such Participant) during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date that the Company is required to prepare a restatement of its financial statements if: (i) the amount of the Award Payment was calculated based upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of the restatement and (ii) the amount of the Award Payment had the financial results been properly reported would have been lower than the amount actually awarded; and

(c)Further, Awards and Award Payments are subject to recoupment under the Company's Executive Officer Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, if applicable, and any recoupment requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or under other applicable laws, rules, regulations or stock exchange listing standards.

9.9    Participants Outside the United States. Awards may be granted to employees who are foreign nationals or residents or employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those applicable to Awards to employees who are not foreign nationals or residents or who are employed in the United States as may, in the judgment of the Compensation Committee, be necessary or desirable in order to recognize differences in local

    10

law, regulations or tax policy. If any provision of the Plan is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, or as to any person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law outside the United States where an employee is based, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the sole determination of the Compensation Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan, such provision shall be stricken as to such jurisdiction, person or Award, and the remainder of the Plan shall remain in full force and effect.

9.10    Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be enforced and construed as if such provision had not been included.

9.11    Unfunded Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an unfunded plan for incentive compensation. Prior to the payment of any Award, nothing contained herein shall give any Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. No amounts awarded or accrued under the Plan shall be funded, set aside, subject to interest payment or otherwise segregated prior to payment of an Award. Any Award payable under the Plan is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive Awards in future years or benefits in lieu of such Awards.
