5. Eligibility

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine and designate from time to time those key Employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries to whom Options are to be granted and the number of shares of Common Stock to be optioned from time to time to any individual. In determining the eligibility of an Employee to receive an Option, as well as in determining the number of shares to be optioned to any Employee, the Committee shall consider the position and responsibilities of the Employee being considered, the nature and value to the Company or a Subsidiary of his services and accomplishments, his present and potential contribution to the success of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and such other factors as the Committee may deem relevant.

No Option may be granted to an individual who, immediately after such grant, “owns” (as defined in Code Sections 422A and 425) stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the corporation then employing such individual or of a parent or subsidiary corporation of such employer corporation.

More than one Option may be granted to an individual. Except as provided in Section 18, the Committee may at any time, regardless of the then current market value of the Common Stock, grant new Options to an Optionee in exchange for the surrender of a previously granted Option.

6. Number of Shares Subject to Options

Under the Plan the maximum number and kind of shares as to which Options may be granted, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 13 hereof, is 12,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The Common Stock to be offered under the Plan may be either authorized and unissued shares or issued shares reacquired by the Company and presently or hereafter held as treasury shares. The Board of Directors has reserved for the purposes of the Plan a total of 12,000,000 of the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 13 hereof. If any shares as to which an Option granted under the Plan shall remain unexercised at the expiration thereof or shall be terminated unexercised, they may be the subject of the grant of further Options; however, to the extent that a Stock Appreciation Right, a Limited Stock Appreciation Right, or an Option Unit granted in conjunction with a Stock Option, is exercised, such Stock Option shall be deemed to have been exercised and the shares of Common Stock which otherwise would have been issued upon the exercise of such Stock Option shall not be subject to the grant of any further Options. In the event that Option Units have been granted separately, an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been granted, and upon exercise shall be deemed to have been exercised.

(a) paid in full by any one or any combination of the following: cash, certified, or official bank check, or delivery of Common Stock certificates endorsed in blank or accompanied by executed stock powers with signatures guaranteed by a national bank or trust company or a member of a national securities exchange evidencing shares of Common Stock, whose value shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise of such Common Stock; or

(b) paid on a deferred basis, and upon such terms and conditions, including provision for securing the payment of the same, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall provide; or

(c) deemed to be paid in full provided the notice of the exercise of a Stock Option is accompanied by a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to promptly deliver to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds sufficient to cover the Option Price; or

(d) paid by a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price; provided, however, that the Company shall accept a cash or other payment from the Optionee to the extent of any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price not satisfied by such reduction in the number of whole shares to be issued; and further provided that shares of Common Stock will no longer be subject to an Option and such Option will no longer be exercisable thereafter to the extent of (i) the shares used to pay the exercise price pursuant to a “net exercise,” (ii) the shares delivered to the Optionee as a result of such exercise, and (iii) any shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations as a result of such exercise.

If any part of the Option Price is paid on a deferred basis, the shares for which payment has been deferred shall be registered in the name of the Optionee or his Successor but the certificate or certificates representing such shares shall not be delivered to the Optionee or his Successor until the Option Price for such shares has been paid in full.

D. Termination of Employment

The effect of termination of an Optionee’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary shall be as follows:

(1) Involuntary Termination. If the employment of an Optionee is terminated involuntarily, without cause (for the purpose of this Plan “cause” shall mean an act of dishonesty, moral turpitude or an intentional or gross negligent act detrimental to the best interests of the Company or a Subsidiary), by the Company or a Subsidiary, any outstanding Options held by such Optionee may be exercised at any time prior to the expiration date of such Options or within three months after the date of such involuntary termination, whichever is the shorter period; provided, however, that such Options were exercisable on the date of such termination under the provisions of the applicable agreements relating thereto, or the Committee specifically waives the restrictions relating to exercisability, if any, contained in such agreements.

(2) Disability Termination. If the employment of an Optionee is terminated by the Company or a Subsidiary because, in the opinion of the Committee, the Optionee has become physically incapacitated, any outstanding Options held by such Optionee may be exercised at any time prior to the expiration date of such Options or within three months after the date of such disability termination, whichever is the shorter period; whether or not such Options were exercisable on the date of such termination under the provisions of the applicable agreements relating thereto. For the purposes of this Plan the question whether the termination of employment shall be considered a disability termination caused by physical incapacity shall be determined in each case by the Committee and such determination by the Committee shall be final.

(3) Retirement. If an Optionee’s employment terminates as the result of retirement of the Optionee under any retirement plan of the Company or a Subsidiary, he may exercise any outstanding Option at any time prior to the expiration date of the Option or within three years after the effective date of his retirement, whichever is the shorter period; provided, however, that such Options were exercisable on the date of such termination under the provisions of the applicable agreements relating thereto, or the Committee specifically waives the restrictions relating to exercisability, if any, contained in such agreements.

(4) Death. (a) If an Optionee shall die while he is an Employee or within three months after the disability termination of his employment, his Option or Options may be exercised by the person or persons entitled to do so under the Optionee’s will or, if the Optionee shall have failed to make testamentary disposition of such Options or shall have died intestate, by the Optionee’s legal representative or representatives (such person, persons, representative, or representatives are referred to herein as the “Successor” or “Successors” of an Optionee), in either case at any time prior to the expiration date of such Options or within one year of the date of the Optionee’s death, whichever is the shorter period; whether or not such Options were exercisable on the date of the Optionee’s death under the provisions of the applicable

-12-

agreements relating thereto. (b) If an Optionee shall die within three years after his retirement or within three months after the involuntary termination of his employment, his Options may be exercised by his Successors at any time prior to the expiration date of such Options or within one year of the date of the Optionee’s death, whichever is the shorter period; provided, however, that such Options were exercisable on the date of the Optionee’s termination of employment under the provisions of the applicable agreements relating thereto or the Committee specifically waives the restrictions relating to exercisability, if any, contained in such agreements.

(5) Other Termination. If the employment of an Optionee shall terminate for any reason other than as set forth in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), or (4) above, his rights under any then outstanding Options shall terminate at the time of such termination of employment; provided, however, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, to the extent consistent with the provisions of Section 18, take such action as it considers appropriate to waive such automatic termination and/or the restrictions, if any, contained in the applicable agreements relating thereto.

(6) Extension of Option Exercise Periods. Notwithstanding the Option termination provisions set forth above, at the request of an Optionee or his Successor but in the Committee’s sole discretion, the Committee may at any time prior to the termination of an Option, extend the period during which the Option may be exercised following the death of an Optionee or the termination of an Optionee’s employment (whether because of involuntary termination, disability termination, death or other termination except retirement) for a period of up to three years following the death of the Optionee or the termination of the Optionee’s employment; provided, however, the Option Period for the Option may not be extended beyond the original expiration date of the Option established pursuant to Subsection (B) of this Section 11

E. Non-Transferability

Each Option granted under the Plan shall by its terms be non-transferable by the Optionee except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each Option shall be exercisable during the Optionee’s lifetime only by the Optionee or his or her guardian or legal representative or by such other means as the Committee may approve from time to time that is not inconsistent with or contrary to the provisions of either Section 16(b) or Rule 16b-3 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as either may be amended from time to time, or any law, rule, regulation or other provision that may hereafter replace such Rule. To the extent consistent with the provisions of Section 18, Optionees may, however, make an inter vivos transfer of Non-Statutory Options to trusts for family members, if at the time of the transfer the Optionee is not subject to Section 16(b) or has not been advised that such a transfer would cause the loss of any exemption provided under Rule 16b-3. An Optionee may also designate a beneficiary to exercise his or her Options after Optionee’s death. Any Stock Appreciation Right, Limited Stock Appreciation Right or Option Unit issued in conjunction with an Incentive Option is transferable only when such Option is transferable and under the same conditions.

F. Other Terms

Options granted pursuant to the Plan shall contain such other terms, provisions, and conditions (which need not be identical) not inconsistent herewith as shall be determined by the Committee.

12. Listing and Registration of Shares

If at any time the Board of Directors shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any of the shares subject to Options under the Plan upon any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body, is necessary or desirable as a condition of or in connection with the purchase or issue of shares thereunder, no outstanding Options, the exercise of which would result in the purchase or issuance of shares, may be exercised in whole or in part unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may require any person exercising an Option to make such representations and furnish such information as it may consider appropriate in connection with the issuance or delivery of the shares in compliance with applicable law and shall have the authority to cause the Company at its expense to take any action related to the Plan which may be required in connection with such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval.

13. Adjustments

To the extent consistent with the provisions of Section 18, in the event that a dividend shall be declared upon the Common Stock payable in shares (other than treasury shares) of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to any Option outstanding under the Plan and the number of shares reserved for the grant of Options pursuant to the Plan but not yet subject to Option shall be adjusted by adding to each such share the number of shares which would be distributable in respect thereof if such shares had been outstanding on the date fixed for determining the shareholders of the Company entitled to receive such stock dividend. To the extent consistent with the provisions of Section 18, in the event that the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of stock or other securities of the Company or of another corporation, whether through reorganization, recapitalization, stock split-up, combination of shares, merger, or consolidation, then there shall be substituted for each share of Common Stock subject to any such Option and for each share of Common Stock reserved for the grant of Options pursuant to the Plan but not yet subject to an Option the number and kind of shares of stock or other securities into which each outstanding share of Common Stock shall have been so changed or for which each such share shall have been exchanged. In the event there shall be any change, other than as specified above in this Section 13, in the number or kind of outstanding shares of Common Stock or of any stock or other securities into which such Common Stock shall have been changed or for which it shall have been exchanged, then if the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion and consistent with the provisions of Section 18, shall determine that such change equitably requires an adjustment in the number or kind of shares theretofore reserved for the grant of Options pursuant to the Plan but not yet subject to an Option and of the shares then subject to an Option or Options, such adjustment shall be made by the Board of Directors and shall be effective and

-14-

binding for all purposes of the Plan and of each Option outstanding thereunder. In the case of any such substitution or adjustment as provided for in this Section 13, the Option Price for each share of stock or other security which shall have been substituted for each share of Common Stock covered by an outstanding Option shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such substitution or adjustment. No adjustment or substitution provided for in this Section 13 shall require the Company to sell a fractional share of Common Stock, and the total substitution or adjustment with respect to each outstanding Option shall be limited accordingly.

Upon any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 13 the Company will, upon request, deliver to the Optionee or to his Successors a certificate of its Secretary setting forth the Option Price thereafter in effect and the number and kind of shares or other securities thereafter purchasable on the exercise of such Option.

14. Withholding Taxes

The Company unilaterally or by arrangement with the Optionee shall make appropriate provision for satisfaction of withholding taxes in the case of any grant, award, exercise, or other transaction which gives rise to a withholding requirement. An Optionee or other person receiving shares issued upon exercise of a Non-Statutory Option, Stock Appreciation Right, or Option Unit shall be required to pay the Company or any Subsidiary in cash the amount of any taxes which the Company or Subsidiary is required to withhold with respect to the exercise of such Option.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt, Optionees who are subject to Rule 16(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and, if determined by the Committee, other Optionees, may satisfy the obligation, in whole or in part, by election on or before the date that the amount of tax required to be withheld is determined, to have the number of shares received upon exercise of the Non-Statutory Option, Stock Appreciation Right, or Option Unit reduced by a number of shares having a fair market value equal to the amount of the required withholding to be so satisfied or to surrender to the Company previously held shares of Common Stock having an equivalent fair market value. For this purpose, the amount of required withholding shall, at the election of the Optionee (or such other person), be at a specified rate not less than the statutory minimum federal and state withholding rate and not greater than the maximum federal, state, and local (if any) marginal tax rate applicable to the Optionee (or such other person) and to the particular Option exercise transaction.

15. Interpretation, Amendments and Termination

The Board of Directors may make such rules and regulations and establish such procedures for the administration of the Plan as it deems appropriate. In the event of any dispute or disagreement as to the interpretation of this Plan or of any rule, regulation or procedure, or as to any question, right or obligation arising from or related to the Plan, the decision of the Board of Directors shall be final and binding upon all persons. The Board of Directors may amend this Plan as it shall deem advisable, except that the Board of Directors may not, without further approval of the shareholders of the Company, (a) increase the total number of shares which may be made the subject of Options granted under the Plan, (b) change the manner of determining the

-15-

Option Price set forth in Section 11A hereof, (c) extend the period during which Options may be granted or exercised, or (d) withdraw the administration of the Plan from a Committee of directors, none of whom is eligible to receive Options under the Plan. The Board of Directors may, in its discretion, terminate this Plan at any time. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the rights of Optionees or their Successors under any Options outstanding and not exercised in full on the date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken pursuant to this Section 15 must be consistent with the provisions of Section 18.

16. Foreign Jurisdictions

The Committee may, from time to time, adopt, amend, and terminate under the Plan, such arrangements, not inconsistent with the intent of the Plan, as it may deem necessary or desirable to make available tax or other benefits of laws of any foreign jurisdiction, to key employees of the Company who are subject to such laws and who receive grants under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken pursuant to this Section 16 must be consistent with the provisions of Section 18.

17. Notices

All notices under the Plan shall be in writing, and if to the Company, shall be delivered to the Secretary of the Company or mailed to its principal office, Post Office Box 57, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15230, addressed to the attention of the Secretary; and if to the Optionee, shall be delivered personally or mailed to the Optionee at the address appearing in the payroll records of the Company or a Subsidiary. Such addresses may be changed at any time by written notice to the other party.

18. Code Section 409A

It is intended that the Options granted pursuant to this Plan shall not constitute “deferrals of compensation” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, as a result, shall not be subject to the requirements of Section 409A. The Plan is to be interpreted in a manner consistent with this intention.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, a new Option may not be issued if such Option would be subject to Code Section 409A, and an existing Option may not be modified in a manner that would cause such Option to become subject to Code Section 409A.
