(b) | Unless the Committee determines otherwise in its sole discretion, if the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason other than |
death, Disability or Retirement prior to the Vesting Date, all Restricted Stock
Units shall be permanently forfeited on such termination date.
(c) | If the Participant’s termination of employment occurs prior to the Vesting Date by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, then the Participant’s Restricted Stock Units shall not be forfeited as of such termination date. Instead, the Restricted Stock Units awarded may vest as follows: |
(i) | Upon Retirement and subject to subparagraph (iii) below, the number of Restricted Stock Units vesting on the Vesting Date, if any, shall be determined in accordance with Exhibit A and, to the extent any Restricted Stock Units become vested on such date, Shares shall be transferred to the Participant (or his or her Beneficiary or estate, if applicable) at the same time Shares are transferred to other Participants who have Restricted Stock Units vesting on such Vesting Date. If the performance goal is not attained by the end of the Performance Period, the Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited. | ||
(ii) | Upon death or Disability and subject to subparagraph (iii) below, the Target Base RSUs set forth in Exhibit A shall become vested on such date and shall be transferred to the Participant (or his or her Beneficiary or estate, if applicable) as soon as practicable after such date. | ||
(iii) | If the Participant’s termination of employment due to death, Disability, or Retirement occurs on or after the Measurement Date, but prior to the Vesting Date, the Participant shall receive the number of Restricted Stock Units he or she would have received (determined in accordance with Exhibit A) had he or she continued to be employed until the Vesting Date. |
(d) | Unless forfeited earlier under paragraph (b) or subparagraph (c)(i) above, the Target Base RSUs shall vest and become nonforfeitable upon a Change in Control. |

Agreement, termination for cause means that the Participant (1) has engaged in conduct that
constitutes willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct with respect to employment duties
that results in material economic harm to the Company, (2) has engaged in conduct that constitutes
willful failure to perform duties or (3) has been convicted of a felony that is materially

domestic, or foreign withholding taxes. The Company may require the Participant to pay the Company
an amount sufficient to satisfy such withholding requirements in cash or Shares. Alternatively, the
Company may withhold cash or Shares due or to become due under this Agreement.
6. Rights Not Conferred. Nothing contained in the LTIP or in this Agreement shall
confer upon the Participant any right with respect to continued employment by the Company or any
affiliate or interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the
Participant at any time. The Participant shall have none of the rights of a stockholder with

Participant in settlement thereof.

hereunder are not transferable or assignable by the Participant; provided that no provision herein
shall prevent the designation of a Beneficiary for the Restricted Stock Units in the event of the
Participant’s death.

stock shall be increased or reduced in the event of a merger, reorganization, consolidation,
recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination,
repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities of the Company, or similar corporate
transaction, the number and kinds of shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder
shall be proportionately adjusted by the Committee, whose determination shall be conclusive,
provided that any fractional share resulting from an adjustment hereunder shall be rounded to the
nearest whole number.
9. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by
