2 TERMS AND CONDITIONS 1. Award of Performance Share Units. This Agreement evidences the award by the Company to Participant of a combined standard “target” amount of __________ Performance Share Units, subject to the terms and conditions herein, as well as all applicable terms and conditions contained in the Plan, which are hereby incorporated by reference. Each such Performance Share Unit represents the right to receive, upon the vesting (as described herein) of the Performance Share Unit, one share of Stock. As described in Sections 2(a) and (b) below, the standard __________ Performance Share Units subject to this Agreement may vest and be payable at 100% upon achievement of the respective target performance ranges, or may vest and be payable at up to 200%, or less than 100% (or not at all), depending on the applicable performance ranges achieved. Furthermore, as described in Section 3(c) below, this Agreement provides for an potential additional bonus “kicker” amount of __________ Performance Share Units, equal to 50% of the standard Performance Share Units, that may vest and be payable at 100% upon achievement of the applicable target performance range, or may vest and be payable at up to 200%, or less than 100% (or not at all), depending on the applicable performance range achieved. The Performance Share Units hereunder will receive Dividend Equivalents with respect to the number of shares of Stock covered thereby, which will be accrued in cash at target levels (and trued up as appropriate, as determined by the Committee, generally following the 3 fiscal year vesting cycle described in Section 3 below). Dividend Equivalents accrued with respect to Performance Share Units earned shall be paid out at the same time that the Performance Share Units to which they relate vest and are paid out pursuant to the terms of Sections 3 and 4 below.

Prior to the actual payment with respect to any Performance Share Unit (and applicable Dividend Equivalents), such Performance Share Unit (and applicable Dividend Equivalents) will represent an unfunded, unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the general assets of the Company. Participant shall have no voting rights in the Company by virtue of holding the Performance Share Units awarded. If any term or condition set forth in this Agreement is inconsistent with the Plan, the Plan shall control.

3 (c) “Dividend Equivalent” means an amount payable (if any) in cash or Stock (as determined by the Committee), as described herein, equal to the dividend that would have been paid to Participant if the share of Stock with respect to which a Performance Share Unit relates had been owned by Participant at the time of the dividend. (d) “TSR” means total shareholder return calculated as the profit or loss from net share price change, over a given period, including reinvestment of dividends.

(a) Vesting of Performance Share Units. Subject to the requirement that Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or a Subsidiary through December 31, 2025, in a position of equivalent or greater responsibility as on the Grant Date (provided, however, that the Committee or its permitted designee may waive, at any time on or after the Grant Date, the requirement that Participant’s employment position be one of equivalent or greater responsibility as on the Grant Date), the Performance Share Units shall vest (i.e., shall no longer be subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” under Section 409A) as follows: (1) __________ of the standard Performance Share Units (representing 50% of such Performance Share Units) shall vest on December 31, 2025, and be paid out, pursuant to Section 4 below, at 100%, if the Committee, in its discretion, determines that the 3-year CAGR for the Company’s 3 fiscal years of 2023, 2024 and 2025 falls within the target performance range of 7% to 7.9%. Furthermore, as set forth on the attached Schedule A, if the Committee, in its discretion, determines that the 3-year CAGR for the Company’s 3 fiscal years of 2023, 2024 and 2025 falls above or below, as the case may be, the target performance range of 7% to 7.9%, then in accordance with such Schedule A, such __________ of Performance Share Units may be payable at up to 200%, or may be payable at less than 100% (or not at all), depending on the applicable 3-year CAGR achieved. (2) __________ of the standard Performance Share Units (representing 50% of such Performance Share Units) shall vest on December 31, 2025, and be paid out, pursuant to Section 4 below, at 100%, if the Committee, in its discretion, determines that the 3-year average Adjusted EBITDA margin for the Company’s 3 fiscal years of 2023, 2024 and 2025 falls within the target performance range of 21% to 21.9%.


 
4 Furthermore, as set forth on the attached Schedule B, if the Committee, in its discretion, determines that the 3-year average Adjusted EBITDA margin for the Company’s 3 fiscal years of 2023, 2024 and 2025 falls above or below, as the case may be, the target performance range of 21% to 21.9%, then in accordance with such Schedule B, such __________ of Performance Share Units may be payable at up to 200%, or may be payable at less than 100% (or not at all), depending on the applicable 3-year average Adjusted EBITDA margin achieved.

(b) Effect of Termination of Employment. Except as otherwise provided below, if Participant’s employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates for any reason prior to December 31, 2025, then all Performance Share Units awarded hereunder shall be cancelled and forfeited for no consideration effective immediately as of the date of such termination of employment (with any such cancellation and forfeiture to be automatic and not require notice or other action by the Company), and Participant shall have no further rights with respect to such Performance Share Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant’s termination of employment is due to death or Disability, then the standard __________ Performance Share Units awarded pursuant to this Agreement (but no portion of the additional bonus “kicker” amount of Performance Share Units described in Section 3(a)(3) above) shall vest at 100% (as if the target performance ranges described in Sections 3(a)(1) and (2) above had been met) and, subject to the provisions of Section 4 below (including the applicable March 15th deadline for payment), such standard Performance Share Units shall be paid out to the estate of the Participant or the Participant, as applicable, within 90 days following the date of the Participant’s death or Disability, as applicable.
