Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that the Negative Discretion Criteria with respect to the Target Awards include objective performance criteria in relation to the performance or value of the Company, its Subsidiaries, its affiliates and/or any division or business unit of any of the foregoing, the Compensation Committee will not exercise negative discretion with respect to vesting that number, if any, of such Target Awards that relate solely to such objective performance criteria.
