Related to Settlement Forfeitures

• Forfeitures (a) If a Participant terminates employment with the Employer and the Actuarial Value of the Participant's vested Accrued Benefit derived form Employer and Employee contributions is not greater than $3,500, the Employee shall receive a distribution of the Actuarial Value of the entire vested portion of such Accrued Benefit, and the nonvested portion will be treated as a forfeiture. For purposes of this Section 6.6, if the Actuarial Value of a Participant's vested Accrued Benefit is zero, the Participant shall be deemed to have received a distribution of such vested Accrued Benefit. (b) If a Participant terminates employment with the Employer, (and the present value of the Employee's vested Accrued Benefit exceeds $3,500), and elects (with his or her spouse's consent) in accordance with Section 9.2 to receive the Actuarial Value of his or her vested Accrued Benefit, the nonvested portion will be treated as a forfeiture. If the Participant elects to have distributed an amount that is less than the entire vested portion of the Accrued Benefit derived from Employer contributions, the part of the nonvested portion that will be treated as a forfeiture is the total nonvested portion multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the distribution attributable to Employer contributions and the denominator of which is the total Actuarial Value of the vested Employer derived Accrued Benefit. (c) If a Participant receives a distribution pursuant to the Section 6.6 and resumes employment covered under the Plan, the Participant shall have the right to restore his or her Employer-provided Accrued Benefit (including all optional forms of benefit and subsidies relating to such benefits), to the extent forfeited, upon the repayment to the Plan of the full amount of the distribution plus interest compounded annually at the rate of (i) five percent (5%) from the date of distribution to the date of repayment or to the last day of the Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 1987, if earlier, (ii) and one hundred twenty percent (120%) of the federal mid-term rate (as in effect under section 1274 of the Code for the first month of a Plan Year) from the first day of the Plan Year beginning on or after January 1, 1987 or the date of distribution, if later. Such repayment must be made before the earlier of (i) five (5) years after the Participant's Re-Employment Commencement Date or (ii) the date the Participant incurs five (5) consecutive one year Service Breaks following the day of distribution. If an Employee is deemed to receive a distribution pursuant to this Section, and the Employee resumes employment covered under this Plan before the date he incurs five (5) consecutive one year Service Breaks, upon the reemployment of such Employee, the Employer-provided Accrued Benefit will be restored to the amount on the date of such deemed distribution. (d) Any forfeitures under this Plan shall be used to reduce Employer contributions, and shall not be applied to increase benefits payable under the Plan.

• Allocation of Forfeitures NOTE: Subsections (a), (b) and (c) below apply to forfeitures of amounts other than Excess Aggregate Contributions.

• Vesting; Forfeiture (a) Subject to the Participant’s continued employment or service through the applicable vesting date and except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, the Award shall vest at the time(s) set forth on the signature page hereto. The Administrator has authority to determine whether and to what degree the Award shall be deemed vested. (b) Notwithstanding Section 3(a) herein, with respect to Employees and Consultants, in the event that the Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated due to a Qualifying Termination, then a pro-rata portion of the unvested Shares subject to the Award as of each applicable vesting date, determined as of the date of the Qualifying Termination in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(b), shall be deemed vested. The pro-rata portion of the unvested Shares subject to the Award that shall be deemed vested as of each applicable vesting date shall be determined by multiplying the total number of the unvested Shares subject to vesting on the applicable vesting date, by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days from the Date of Grant through the date of the Qualifying Termination, and the denominator of which is the total number of calendar days in the period commencing on the Date of Grant and ending on the applicable vesting date. The remaining unvested Shares subject to the Award shall be forfeited as of the date of the Qualifying Termination. (c) Notwithstanding Section 3(a) herein, with respect to Directors, in the event that the Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated due to death or Disability, then the Award shall, to the extent not then vested or previously forfeited or cancelled, become fully vested effective as of the Participant’s Termination Date. (d) Notwithstanding Section 3(a) herein, in the event of a Change of Control, then the Award shall, to the extent not then vested or previously forfeited or cancelled, become vested as follows: (i) To the extent that the successor or surviving company in the Change of Control event does not assume or substitute for the Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and does not continue the Award) on substantially similar terms or with substantially equivalent economic benefits (as determined by the Administrator) as Awards outstanding under the Plan immediately prior to the Change of Control event, the Award shall become fully vested as of the date of the Change of Control. (ii) Further, in the event that the Award is substituted, assumed or continued as provided in Section 3(d)(i) herein, the Award will nonetheless become vested if the Participant’s employment or service is terminated by the Company and its Affiliates without Cause or by the Participant with Good Reason within six months before (in which case vesting shall not occur until the effective date of the Change of Control) or one year after the effective date of a Change of Control (in which case vesting shall occur as of the Participant’s Termination Date). (e) If the Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated for any reason other than a Change of Control, a Qualifying Termination with respect to Employees and Consultants, or death or disability with respect to Directors as provided herein (including but not limited to a termination for Cause), the unvested portion of the Award shall immediately terminate and the Participant shall have no rights with respect to the Award or the Shares underlying the unvested portion of the Award.

• Term; Forfeiture a. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, to the extent the unexercised portion of the Stock Option relates to Optioned Shares which are not vested on the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service, the Stock Option will be terminated on that date. The unexercised portion of the Stock Option that relates to Optioned Shares which are vested will terminate at the first of the following to occur: i. 5 p.m. on the date the Option Period terminates; ii. 5 p.m. on the date which is twelve (12) months following the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service due to death or Total and Permanent Disability;

• Restrictions; Forfeiture The Restricted Shares are restricted in that they may not be sold, transferred or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until these restrictions are removed or expire as described in Section 5 or 6 of this Agreement. The Restricted Shares are also restricted in the sense that they may be forfeited to the Company (the “Forfeiture Restrictions”). You hereby agree that if the Restricted Shares are forfeited, as provided in Section 6, the Company shall have the right to deliver the Restricted Shares to the Company’s transfer agent for, at the Company’s election, cancellation or transfer to the Company.

• FORFEITURE ALLOCATION The amount of a Participant's Accrued Benefit forfeited under the Plan is a Participant forfeiture. The Advisory Committee will allocate Participant forfeitures in the manner specified by the Employer in its Adoption Agreement. The Advisory Committee will continue to hold the undistributed, non-vested portion of a terminated Participant's Accrued Benefit in his Account solely for his benefit until a forfeiture occurs at the time specified in Section 5.09 or if applicable, until the time specified in Section 9.14. Except as provided under Section 5.04, a Participant will not share in the allocation of a forfeiture of any portion of his Accrued Benefit.

• Criminal Forfeiture Borrower, any Subsidiary of Borrower or any Guarantor shall be criminally indicted or convicted under any law that could lead to a forfeiture of any Property of Borrower, any Subsidiary of Borrower or any Guarantor.

• Allocation of Award The total Award made with respect to the Leased Property or for loss of rent, or for Lessor’s loss of business beyond the Term, shall be solely the property of and payable to Lessor. Any Award made for loss of Lessee’s business during the remaining Term, if any, for the taking of Lessee’s Personal Property, or for removal and relocation expenses of Lessee in any such proceedings shall be the sole property of and payable to Lessee. In any Condemnation proceedings Lessor and Lessee shall each seek its Award in conformity herewith, at its respective expense; provided, however, Lessee shall not initiate, prosecute or acquiesce in any proceedings that may result in a diminution of any Award payable to Lessor.

• Dividend Equivalent Payments Until your RSUs convert to Shares, if MSCI pays a dividend on Shares, you will be entitled to a dividend equivalent payment in the same amount as the dividend you would have received if you held Shares for your vested and unvested RSUs immediately prior to the record date. No dividend equivalents will be paid to you with respect to any canceled or forfeited RSUs. MSCI will decide on the form of payment and may pay dividend equivalents in Shares, in cash or in a combination thereof, unless otherwise provided in Exhibit C. MSCI will pay the dividend equivalent when it pays the corresponding dividend on its common stock or on the next regularly scheduled payroll date. The gross amount of any dividend equivalents paid to you with respect to RSUs that do not vest and convert to Shares shall be subject to potential recoupment or payback (such recoupment or payback of dividend equivalents, the “Clawback”) following the cancellation or forfeiture of the underlying RSUs. You consent to the Company’s implementation and enforcement of the Clawback and expressly agree that MSCI may take such actions as are necessary to effectuate the Clawback consistent with applicable law. If, within a reasonable period, you do not tender repayment of the dividend equivalents in response to demand for repayment, MSCI may seek a court order against you or take any other actions as are necessary to effectuate the Clawback.

• Vesting and Forfeiture Any Award which has become payable pursuant to the performance measures set forth in Section 4 shall be considered as fully earned by you, subject to the further provisions of this Section 3. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Award Agreement to the contrary, any Award will be forfeited back to Tyson in the event of: (i) your Termination of Employment before the Vesting Date, except as otherwise provided in Sections 3.2 through 3.4, or (ii) the failure to satisfy any of the performance measures provided in Section 4.
