If the Employee does not accept this Award Agreement on or before the end of such one hundred twenty (120) day period, then the grant of the right and option to purchase the shares of common stock of the Corporation, as set forth in Section 1, shall not be binding on and shall be voidable by the Corporation, in which case it shall have no further force or effect. Acknowledgment of Conditions I understand, acknowledge and agree to the following conditions with respect to the Award granted to me under the Plan: • The 2011 Equity Participation Plan (the “Plan”) is discretionary in nature and the Corporation may cancel or terminate it at any time. The grant of an option is a voluntary and occasional benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive a grant of options or benefits in lieu of options in the future. Future grants, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, the timing of any grant, the number of option shares, vesting provisions and the exercise price. • My participation in the Plan is voluntary. The value of this option and the shares of common stock covered by this option are extraordinary items that do not constitute compensation of any kind for services of any kind rendered to the Corporation or my actual employer (the “Employer”), and which are outside the scope of my employment contract, if any, and are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation. As such, the option is not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event shall be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Corporation, the Employer or any Affiliate. • Vesting of any option shares ceases upon termination of active employment for any reason (whether or not in breach of local labor laws and except as may otherwise be explicitly provided in the Plan document or this Award Agreement), and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when I am no longer actively employed for purposes of this option. • No claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of this option or diminution in value of this option resulting from termination of my employment by the Corporation or the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of local labor laws) and, in consideration of the grant of this option, to which I am not otherwise entitled, I irrevocably agree never to institute any claim against the Corporation or the Employer, waive my ability, if any, to bring any such claim, and release the Corporation and the Employer from any such claim; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is allowed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by participating in the Plan, I shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed not to pursue such a claim and agree to execute any and all documents necessary to request dismissal or withdrawal of such claims. • The future value of the underlying shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. If the underlying shares do not increase in value, the option will have no value. If I exercise this option and obtain shares, the value of those shares acquired upon exercise may increase or decrease in value, even below the option price. • Regardless of any action the Corporation or the Employer take with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding related to my participation in the Plan and legally applicable to me (“Tax-Related Items”), I acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains my responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Corporation or the Employer. I further acknowledge that the Corporation and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of this option, the subsequent sale of shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of this option to reduce or eliminate my liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if I have become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, I acknowledge that the Corporation and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. • Prior to the relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, I shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Corporation and/or the Employer to satisfy or account for all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, I authorize the Corporation or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:
