Except as provided in Section 9.4, the date or dates on which RSUs shall vest may vary from grant to grant and shall be set forth in the respective Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, as determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.3 to the contrary but subject to the provisions of this Plan and Board approval, the Committee may, on an individual basis, accelerate the time at which restrictions on RSUs lapse.

9.4 TERMINATION OF SERVICE. The Committee may establish such rules concerning the termination of service of a recipient of RSUs prior to the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that if an Employee or Non-Employee Director terminates service by reason of death or Total Disability, the applicable forfeiture restrictions will lapse upon such death or occurrence of Total Disability. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, RSUs will be forfeited immediately upon termination of a Participant’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary if the Participant’s employment is Terminated for Cause.

9.5 NO RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. No Participant shall have rights to dividends, vesting, voting or other rights as a shareholder of Stock with respect to RSUs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may grant dividend equivalents on RSUs based on the dividends actually declared and paid on outstanding shares of Stock. The terms of any dividend equivalents will be as set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement, including the time and form of payment and whether such dividend equivalents will be credited with interest or deemed to be reinvested in additional RSUs. If the Committee grants the right of a Participant to receive dividend equivalents on unvested RSUs subject to this Section 9.5, then such dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same performance conditions and service conditions, as applicable, as the underlying RSUs.

ARTICLE X

PHANTOM STOCK

10.1 GRANT OF PHANTOM STOCK.

(a) The Committee may authorize grants of Phantom Stock to any Participant upon such terms and conditions as it may determine in accordance with this Article X. Phantom Stock is an award in the form of a right to receive cash or Stock upon surrender of the vested Phantom Stock, in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Stock plus the aggregate amount of cash dividends paid with respect to a share of Stock during the period commencing on the date on which the share of Phantom Stock was granted and terminating on the date on which such share vests. Each grant will specify the number of shares of Phantom Stock to which it pertains. At the time of making a grant of Phantom Stock to a Participant, the Committee shall establish a Restriction Period during which shares of Phantom Stock are subject to forfeiture if the

restrictions applicable to such shares are violated. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.4, the vesting schedule pursuant to which forfeiture restrictions applicable to a grant of Phantom Stock lapse shall be established by the Committee in its discretion and set forth in the respective Phantom Stock Award Agreement. The Committee may, subject to the provisions of this Plan and Board approval, on an individual basis, accelerate the time at which restrictions on Phantom Stock lapse. The Committee shall assign such terms, conditions and other restrictions to the Phantom Stock as it shall determine.

(b) Each Phantom Stock award shall be evidenced by a “Phantom Stock Award Agreement” in such form and containing such provisions consistent with the provisions of the Plan as the Committee from time to time shall approve.

(c) A grant may specify Indicators of Performance that must be achieved as a condition to the vesting of the Phantom Stock.

10.2 PAYMENT ON VESTING. A grant may provide that the amount payable on vesting of an award of Phantom Stock may be paid: (a) in cash; (b) in shares of Stock having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the amount payable (or the designated percentage of the amount payable); or (c) in a combination thereof, as determined by the Committee in its discretion. Upon the vesting of a share of Phantom Stock, the Participant shall be entitled to receive payment, in cash or Stock as the Phantom Stock Award Agreement shall indicate, an amount equal to the sum of (a) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date on which such share of Phantom Stock vests and (b) the aggregate amount of cash dividends paid with respect to a share of Stock during the period commencing on the date on which the share of Phantom Stock was granted and terminating on the date on which such share vests. Such payment shall be made no later than March 15 of the year immediately following the calendar year in which the vesting occurs or by a later date by which such payment may be made so that the payment falls under the short term deferral exception of Section 409A of the Code. A grant may specify that the amount payable to the Participant on vesting of a Phantom Stock award may not exceed a maximum amount specified by the Committee at the date of grant.

10.3 VESTING OF PHANTOM STOCK. Except as provided in Section 10.4, the date or dates on which Phantom Stock shall vest may vary from grant to grant and shall be set forth in the respective Phantom Stock Award Agreement, as determined by the Committee. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.3 to the contrary but subject to the provisions of this Plan and Board approval, the Committee may, on an individual basis, accelerate the time at which restrictions on Phantom Stock lapse.

10.4 TERMINATION OF SERVICE. The Committee may establish such rules concerning the termination of service of a recipient of Phantom Stock prior to the expiration of the applicable Restriction Period as it may deem appropriate; provided, however, that if an Employee or Non-Employee Director terminates service by reason of death or Total Disability, the applicable forfeiture restrictions will lapse upon such death or occurrence of Total Disability. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Phantom Stock Award Agreement, Phantom Stock will be forfeited immediately upon termination of a Participant’s service with the Company or a Subsidiary if the Participant’s employment is Terminated for Cause.

10.5 NO RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. No Participant shall have rights to dividends, vesting, voting or other rights as a shareholder of Stock with respect to Phantom Stock.

ARTICLE XI

PERFORMANCE AWARDS

11.1 PERFORMANCE AWARDS. Performance Awards pursuant to this Article XI are based upon achieving established Indicators of Performance over a Performance Period. At the time of making a Performance Award, the Committee shall establish such terms and conditions as it shall determine applicable to such Performance Award. Performance Awards shall be paid not later than March 15 of the calendar year immediately following the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends or by a later date by which such payment may be made so that the payment falls under the short term deferral exception of Section 409A of the Code. Recipients of Performance Awards are not required to provide consideration for such awards other than the rendering of service. A Performance Award shall be paid in cash. For avoidance of doubt, a Performance Award under this Article XI is not in lieu of any annual bonus plan or other bonus program established and approved by the Board of Directors from time to time.

11.2 ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE. The Committee shall designate Employees as Performance Award Participants to become eligible to receive Performance Awards and shall establish Performance Periods.

11.3 INDICATORS OF PERFORMANCE. The Committee shall establish Indicators of Performance applicable to the Performance Period. Indicators of Performance are utilized to determine amount and timing of Performance Awards, and may vary between Performance Periods and different Performance Awards.

11.4 AWARD ADJUSTMENT. Subject to the terms of the Performance Award, the Committee may make downward adjustments to Performance Awards to Performance Award Participants.

11.5 PARTIAL PERFORMANCE PERIOD PARTICIPATION. The Committee shall determine the extent to which an Employee shall participate in a partial Performance Period because of becoming eligible to be a Performance Award Participant after the beginning of such Performance Period. In the event a Performance Award Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, other than after a Change of Control, prior to completing at least fifty percent (50%) of the Performance Period for a Performance Award, no payment shall be made pursuant to the Performance Award. In the event a Performance Award Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated (a) on account of termination by the Company for other than Termination for Cause, (b) death or (c) Total Disability after completing at least fifty percent (50%) of the Performance Period for a Performance Award, such Performance Award Participant shall be paid a pro rata portion of the Performance Award, if the Indicators of Performance are met, no later than March 15 of the year immediately following the calendar year in which his or her employment is terminated or by a later date by which such payment may be made so that the payment falls under the short term deferral exception of Section 409A of the Code. No payment shall be made pursuant to a Performance Award if the Performance Award Participant’s employment with the Company is voluntarily terminated by him or her for any reason or is Terminated for Cause prior to the end of the Performance Period.

ARTICLE XII

ADJUSTMENT UPON CHANGES IN STOCK

The number of shares of Stock, including limits under Sections 5.1 and 5.2, which may be issued pursuant to this Plan, the number of shares covered by, and the exercise price per share of, each outstanding Option and SAR, the number of shares granted as Restricted Stock and the number of RSUs and Phantom Stock, shall be adjusted proportionately, and any other appropriate adjustments shall be made, for any increase or decrease in the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Stock (or change in kind) resulting from any change in the Stock through a merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, subdivision or consolidation of shares or other capital adjustment or the payment of a Stock dividend or other increase or decrease (or change in kind) in such shares. In the event of any such adjustment, fractional shares shall be eliminated. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, no change shall be made to an ISO under this Article XII to the extent it would constitute a “modification” under section 424(h)(3) of the Code.

ARTICLE XIII

CHANGE OF CONTROL

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, if a Participant’s employment is involuntarily terminated upon a Change of Control of the Company, the following shall apply:

(a) If a Change of Control occurs during a Restriction Period(s) applicable to Restricted Stock, RSUs and Phantom Stock issued under the Plan, all restrictions imposed hereunder on such Restricted Stock, RSUs and Phantom Stock shall lapse effective as of the date of the Change of Control;

(b) If a Change of Control occurs during a Performance Period(s) applicable to a Performance Award granted under the Plan, a Performance Award Participant shall earn no less than the award of cash which the Performance Award Participant would have earned if applicable Indicator(s) of Performance had been achieved and the Performance Period(s) had terminated as of the date of the Change of Control; and

(c) Any outstanding Options and SARs that are not exercisable shall become exercisable effective as of the date of a Change of Control. If a Participant’s employment is terminated within two (2) years after the effective date of a Change of Control for a reason other than a Termination for Cause, to the extent that any Option or SAR was exercisable at the time of the Participant’s termination of employment, such Option or SAR, other than an ISO, may be exercised within the lesser of: (a) twelve (12) months following the date of termination of employment, or (b) the term of the Option or SAR.

ARTICLE XIV

MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 EFFECT ON OTHER PLANS. Except as otherwise required by law, no action taken under the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, thrift, profit sharing, group insurance or other benefit plan maintained by the Company or any Subsidiary, unless such other plan specifically provides for such inclusion.

14.2 TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. No Option (except as provided in Section 14.3), SAR, RSU, grant of Restricted Stock, grant of Phantom Stock or Performance Award under this Plan

shall be transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Any Option or SAR shall be exercisable: (a) during the lifetime of a Participant, only by the Participant or, to the extent permitted by the Code, by an appointed guardian or legal representative of the Participant; and (b) after death of the Participant, only by the Participant’s legal representative or by the person who acquired the right to exercise such Option or SAR by bequest or inheritance or by reason of the death of the Participant. The Committee and the Participant may, in any agreement providing for a grant and/or award under this Plan, provide that the Participant may designate a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive the property granted pursuant to an award and/or exercise of the Participant’s rights under the grant and/or award as provided in this Plan after the death of the Participant.

14.3 TRANSFER OF OPTIONS. The Committee may, in its discretion, authorize all or a portion of the Options to be granted to a Participant to be on terms which permit transfer by such Participant to an immediate family member of the Participant who acquires the options from the Participant through a gift or a domestic relations order. For purposes of this Article XIV, Section 14.3, “family member” includes any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, trusts for the exclusive benefit of these persons and any other entity owned solely by these persons, provided that the Stock Option Award Agreement pursuant to which such Options are granted must be approved by the Committee and must expressly provide for transferability in a manner consistent with this Section and provided further that subsequent transfers of transferred Options shall be prohibited except in accordance with Article XIV, Section 14.2. Following transfer, any such Options shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. The events of termination of employment of Article VI, Section 6.5 hereof shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Participant, following which the Options shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent and for the periods specified in Article VI, Section 6.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an ISO may not be transferred to a family member in accordance with this Section 14.3.

14.4 WITHHOLDING TAXES. The Company shall have the right to withhold from any settlement hereunder any federal, state, or local taxes required by law to be withheld, or require payment in the amount of such withholding. If settlement hereunder is in the form of Stock, such withholding may be satisfied by the withholding of shares of Stock by the Company, unless the Participant shall pay to the Company an amount sufficient to cover the amount of taxes required to be withheld, and such withholding of shares does not violate any applicable laws, rules or regulations of federal, state or local authorities.

14.5 TRANSFER OF EMPLOYMENT. Transfer of employment or consulting assignment between the Company and a Subsidiary shall not constitute termination of employment or service for the purpose of the Plan. Whether any leave of absence shall constitute termination of employment for the purposes of the Plan shall be determined in each case by the Committee.

14.6 ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. All administrative expenses associated with the administration of the Plan shall be paid by the Company.

14.7 TITLES AND HEADINGS. The titles and headings of the articles in this Plan are for convenience of reference only and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.

14.8 NO GUARANTEE OF CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE. No grant or award to an Employee under the Plan or any provisions thereof shall constitute any agreement for or guarantee of continued employment by the Company and no grant or award to a Non-Employee Director shall constitute any agreement for or guarantee of continuing as a Non-Employee Director.

14.9 COMMITTEE DUTIES AND POWERS. The Committee shall have such duties and powers as may be necessary to discharge its responsibilities under this Plan, including, but not limited to, the ability to construe and interpret the Plan and resolve any ambiguities with respect to any of the terms and provisions hereof as written and as applied to the operation of the Plan.

14.10 PROCEEDS. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Stock under the Plan shall be added to the general funds of the Company and shall be used for corporate purposes as the Board shall direct.

14.11 GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE. This plan shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, excluding conflict of law rules and principles, except to the extent such laws are preempted by Federal law. Courts located in the State of Missouri shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine all matters relating to the Plan and that venue is proper in such courts.

14.12 FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS. Awards may be granted to employees who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States, or both, on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan as may, in the judgment of the Committee, be necessary or desirable in order to recognize differences in local law or tax policy. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of awards in order to minimize the Company’s obligation with respect to tax equalization for Participants on assignments outside their home country.

14.13 SUCCESSORS. All obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company.

14.14 BENEFICIARY DESIGNATIONS. If permitted by the Committee, a Participant under the Plan may name a beneficiary or beneficiaries to whom any vested but unpaid award shall be paid in the event of the Participant’s death. Each such designation shall revoke all prior designations by the Participant and shall be effective only if given in a form and manner acceptable to the Committee. In the absence of any such designation, any vested benefits remaining unpaid at the Participant’s death shall be paid to the Participant’s estate and, subject to the terms of the Plan and of the applicable award agreement, any unexercised vested award may be exercised by the administrator, executor or the personal representative of the Participant’s estate.

14.15 INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION. As a condition to the exercise of an award, the Committee may require the person exercising such award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

14.16 FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional Shares shall be issued or delivered pursuant to the Plan or any award. The Committee shall determine whether cash, or awards, or other property shall be issued or paid in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights thereto shall be forfeited or otherwise eliminated.

14.17 DEFERRAL ELECTION. To the extent provided by the Committee under the Plan or an applicable deferral plan established by the Company, the receipt of payment of cash or delivery of shares of Stock that would otherwise be due to a Participant pursuant to an award hereunder, other than Options and SARs, may be deferred at the election of the Participant, including any dividend or dividend equivalent granted with respect to any such award. Any such deferral elections and the payment of any amounts so deferred shall be made in accordance with such rules and procedures as the Committee may establish consistent with the Plan, which rules and procedures shall comply with Section 409A of the Code.

14.18 SECTION 409A PROVISIONS. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no adjustment described in Article XII and no termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall (a) impermissibly accelerate or postpone payment of an award subject to Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance issued thereunder; (b) cause an Option or SAR to provide for a deferral of compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance issued thereunder; or (c) apply to any award that otherwise is intended to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the regulations and guidance issued thereunder to the extent such action would cause compensation deferred under the applicable award (and applicable earnings) to be included in income under Section 409A of the Code. Any payment or distribution that otherwise would be made to a Participant who is a Specified Employee (as determined by the Committee in good faith) on account of separation from service may not be made before the date which is six (6) months after the date of the Specified Employee’s separation from service unless the payment or distribution is exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code by reason of the short term deferral exemption or otherwise.

14.19 SUCCESSIVE GRANTS. Successive grants of awards may be made to the same Participant whether or not any award of the same type or any other award previously granted to such Participant remain unexercised or outstanding.

14.20 CLAWBACK OF AWARDS. The awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to rescission, revocation, adjustment or other modification at the discretion of the Committee consistent with the terms of the Company’s Clawback Policy, as may be amended from time to time to comply with applicable legal requirements providing for the recoupment or clawback of incentive compensation.

ARTICLE XV

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

The Board may at any time terminate or amend this Plan in such respect as it shall deem advisable, provided, the Board may not, without further approval of the shareholders of the Company, amend the Plan to: (a) increase the number of shares of Stock which may be issued under the Plan; (b) change Plan provisions relating to establishment of the exercise prices under Options or SARs granted; (c) extend the duration of the Plan beyond the date approved by the shareholders; (d) reprice, replace or regrant Options or SARs through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of a previously granted Option or SARs; (e) make any change to the

Plan considered material under the listing requirements of The NASDAQ Stock Market or any other exchange on which the Company’s Stock is listed; or (f) increase the maximum dollar amount of ISOs which an individual Participant may exercise during any calendar year beyond that permitted in the Code and applicable rules and regulations of the Treasury Department. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Participant, alter or impair any of the rights or obligations under any grants or other rights theretofore granted such person under the Plan.
