Forfeiture of Units. In the event of the Employee’s Termination for any reason other than those set forth in subsections 4 (b), (c), (d) or Section 5, any Units with respect to which Restrictions have not lapsed as of the date of Termination shall be forfeited without consideration to the Employee or the Employee’s Representative. If the Company terminates the Employee other than for Cause and such termination is not covered by Section 5, the Company may, in its sole discretion, cause some or all of the Units not previously settled on a Delivery Date to continue to be subject to the Restrictions, provided such Restrictions may lapse thereafter in accordance with the provisions of subsection 4(a), in which case such Units shall be settled in the form of Shares on the Delivery Date(s) set forth in subsection 4(a) above occurring after the date of such Termination. In accepting this Award, the Employee acknowledges that in the event of Termination (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to vest in the Units, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that the Employee is no longer actively employed 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) and that the Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively employed for purposes of this Award.
