Further Adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, the Parent Board (or a committee authorized by the Parent Board) may determine, in its sole discretion, not to adjust certain outstanding Parent equity-based awards pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01 where (i) those actions would create or trigger adverse legal, accounting or tax consequences for Parent, SpinCo and/or the affected award holders, or (ii) where the Parent Board (or such other committee authorized by the Parent Board) determines that an adjustment in accordance with the terms provided above is inappropriate due to distortions in either Parent or SpinCo’s share values due, among other things, to an unforeseen temporary market event unrelated to Parent or SpinCo. In such circumstances, Parent and/or SpinCo may take any action necessary or advisable to prevent any such adverse legal, accounting or tax consequences or distortions, including (x) agreeing that the outstanding Parent equity-based awards of the affected award holders will terminate in accordance with the terms of the Parent Equity Plans and the underlying award agreements, in which case Parent will equitably compensate the affected award holders in an alternate manner determined by Parent in its sole discretion, or (y) apply an alternate adjustment method. Where and to the extent required by applicable Law or tax considerations outside the United States, the adjustments described in this Section 6.01 will be deemed to have been effectuated immediately prior to the Spin-off Date.
