Each PSU is granted in tandem with a Dividend Equivalent, as further described in Section 3.5 below.
ARTICLE III.
(a)Except as otherwise provided in 3.2 below, the PSUs shall vest in their entirety on [ □ ]; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the PSUs shall vest in full on the earliest to occur of (i) the date the Participant dies, provided, that the Participant has not experienced a Termination of Service prior to such date, (ii) if the Participant is an Employee, the date of such Participant’s Termination of Service due to Retirement, provided that the Participant has held the PSUs for at least one (1) year from the Grant Date as of the date of Retirement, or (iii) the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service due to Disability.
(b)If the Participant experiences a Termination of Service resulting from the Company’s discharge of the Participant without Cause, the Participant shall immediately vest in that number of PSUs, equal to the number of PSUs in which the Participant would have vested on [ □ ], but for such Termination of Service, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date to the date of the Participant’s Termination of Service and the denominator of which is the number of days from the Grant Date to [ □ ].
Section 3.2 - Effect of a Change in Control
Notwithstanding Section 3.1, in the event of a Change in Control:
(a)If the PSUs are not continued, assumed or new restricted stock units (performance-based or otherwise) or other rights substituted therefor by a successor, or any parent or subsidiary thereof, under Section 13.2(b)(ii) of the Plan, then immediately prior to the Change in Control the PSUs shall become fully vested and payable at target levels subject to and effective on the Change in Control; or
(b)If the PSUs are continued, assumed or new restricted stock units (performance-based or otherwise) are substituted therefor by a successor, or any parent or subsidiary thereof, under Section 13.2(b)(ii) of the Plan, then the PSUs (as so continued or assumed) or such new restricted stock units or other rights, as applicable, shall become fully vested upon the Participant’s Termination of Service without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, in either case, prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Change in Control.
Section 3.3 - Termination of PSUs
Upon the Participant’s Termination of Service for any reason, all then-unvested PSUs issued to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement (after taking into account any vesting that may occur in connection with such Termination of Service, if any) shall immediately terminate and be cancelled and forfeited.
Except as provided under Section 3.2(a), vested PSUs shall become payable, to the extent any amount becomes payable in respect of a vested PSU, as soon as practicable after [ □ ];provided, however, that (i) if the Participant has not satisfied the requirements for Retirement or has not died or incurred a Disability, such payment shall be made by March 15th of the calendar year immediately following the last fiscal year of the Performance Period, and (ii) if the Participant experiences a Termination of Service due to death, Retirement or Disability prior to [ □ ], such vested PSUs shall become payable as soon as practicable after the Company determines the extent, if any, to which the performance criteria below have been satisfied, but in any event during [ □ ]. Each vested PSU shall entitle the Participant to receive a number of Shares, if any, determined by the addition of: (a) the Company’s cumulative EPS (as defined below) performance at a weight of [ □ ]% and (b) the Company’s average Return on Invested Capital (as defined below) performance at a weight of [ □ ]%, with the total of that summation multiplied by (c) the r-TSR Multiplier (as defined below).
If the Company’s performance falls below either minimum cumulative EPS amount or minimum average Return on Invested Capital amount, the weighting of such EPS or Return on Invested Capital component shall equal 0%, but shall not affect any other measure of performance. If the Company fails to meet or exceed both the minimum cumulative EPS amount and minimum average Return on Invested Capital amount during the Performance Period, no PSUs will become payable hereunder. Conversely, to the extent the Company’s performance exceeds either or both the maximum cumulative EPS amount and the maximum average Return on Invested Capital amount during the Performance Period, no amounts in excess of such maximum performance shall be taken into account in determining the amount payable with respect to the PSUs. Charts illustrating the [ □ ] performance measures are shown in Attachment A.
Section 3.5 – Dividend Equivalents
A bookkeeping account will be established by the Company to which Dividend Equivalents equal to the product of (a) the number of PSUs subject to this Agreement, and (b) the dividends declared on a single share of Common Stock will be credited. To the extent the Participant becomes vested in any PSUs issued pursuant to this Agreement, the Dividend Equivalents corresponding to such PSUs will be converted to cash or additional Shares (as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion) and will be paid to the Participant at the same time as the Shares of Common Stock are issued with respect to the vested PSUs. The Participant shall not be entitled to payment of any Dividend Equivalents relating to dividends for which the applicable ex-dividend date occurs on or after the earlier to occur of the payment or forfeiture of the PSU underlying such Dividend Equivalent.

If the Company shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce any such restrictive covenant, the Participant hereby waives the claim or defense that the Company has an adequate remedy at law and agrees not to assert such claim or defense.

Any notice to be delivered to the Participant shall be addressed to the Participant at the Participant’s last address reflected in the Company’s records. Notices may be given electronically (or by facsimile), and will be deemed given when sent. Otherwise, notices shall be sent by reputable overnight courier or by certified mail (return receipt requested) through the United States Postal Service.

Participant shall not, by virtue of the PSUs granted hereby, be entitled to vote in any Company election, receive any dividend in respect of Shares subject to the PSUs (except as provided under Section 3.5 above) or exercise any other rights of a stockholder of the Company. The PSUs shall not confer upon the Participant any rights of a stockholder of the Company unless and until the PSUs have vested and certificates representing the Shares subject to the PSUs shall have been issued by the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.
Section 5.7 - Conformity to Laws
The Participant acknowledges that the Plan and this Agreement are intended to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of applicable law, including without limitation the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, including without limitation Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be administered, and the PSUs and Dividend Equivalents shall be granted, only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement and the PSUs and Dividend Equivalents granted hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.
(a)This Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and the Treasury Regulations relating thereto (together, “Section 409A”). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Company may adopt such amendments to this Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes under Section 409A, provided, however, that this Section 5.8 shall not create an obligation on the part of the Company to adopt any such amendment, policy or procedure or take any such other action, nor shall the Company have any liability for failing to do so. To the extent that any payment window spans two calendar years, the Participant shall have no discretion over or ability to control the actual year in which payment is made.
(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no amounts shall be paid to the Participant under this Agreement during the six (6)-month period following the Participant’s “separation from service” to the extent that the Administrator determines that the Participant is a “specified employee” (each within the meaning of Section 409A) at the time of such separation from service and that paying such amounts at the time or times indicated in this Agreement would be a prohibited distribution under Section 409A(a)(2)(b)(i). If the payment of any such amounts is delayed as a result of the previous sentence, then on the first business day following the end of such six (6)-month period (or such earlier date upon which such amount can be paid under Section 409A without being subject to such additional taxes), the Company shall pay to the Participant in a lump-sum all amounts that would have otherwise been payable to the Participant during such six (6)-month period under this Agreement.
(c)Dividend Equivalents and any amounts that may become distributable in respect thereof shall be treated separately from the PSUs and the rights arising in connection therewith for purposes of the designation of time and form of payments required by Section 409A
Section 5.9 - Amendment
This Agreement may be amended without the consent of the Participant, except that no amendment of this Agreement shall, without the written consent of the Participant, impair any rights of the Participant under this Agreement.
Section 5.10 - Tax Withholding
Subject to Section 5.10(b) below, the Company’s obligation to issue or deliver to the Participant any certificate or certificates for Shares is expressly conditioned upon receipt from the Participant, on or prior to the date reasonably specified by the Company of all withholding taxes owed in connection with the PSUs and Dividend Equivalents by one of the following methods:
(i) Full payment (in cash or by check) of any amount that must be withheld by the Company, a Parent Corporation or Subsidiary for foreign, federal, state and/or local tax purposes;
(ii) Subject to the Administrator’s consent, full payment by delivery to the Company of unrestricted Shares previously owned by the Participant, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company by the Participant with an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined on the date such withholding obligation arises) equal to the amount that must be withheld by the Company, a Parent Corporation or a Subsidiary for foreign, federal, state and/or local tax purposes;
(iii) With respect to any withholding tax obligations for PSUs that become vested, through the delivery of a notice that Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker acceptable to the Company with respect to Shares then issuable to Participant pursuant to the PSUs, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company or the Subsidiary with respect to which the withholding obligation arises in satisfaction of such withholding taxes; provided that payment of such proceeds
is then made to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary at such time as may be required by the Administrator, but in any event not later than the settlement of such sale; or
(iv) Subject to the Administrator’s consent, a combination of payments provided for in the foregoing subsections (i), (iii) and (iii) (and/or in Section 5.10(b) below).
Notwithstanding Section 5.10(a), unless the Administrator otherwise determines, the Company shall withhold, or cause to be withheld, a portion of the Shares (or cash, as applicable) deliverable with respect to vested PSUs and Dividend Equivalents that become payable with an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined on the date such withholding obligation arises) equal to the amount that must be withheld by the Company, a Parent Corporation or a Subsidiary for foreign, federal, state and/or local tax purposes, in accordance with Section 11.2 of the Plan.
With respect to each individual who was an executive officer of the Company and subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act on the Grant Date only, the Committee has consented to payment of tax withholding obligations under subsection Sections 5.10(a) and (c) and Section 5.10(b), as the Participant may elect during such time periods as the Company may permit in compliance with all applicable legal requirements.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the number of Shares which may be withheld with respect to the payment of any PSUs and/or Dividend Equivalents in order to satisfy the Company’s foreign, federal, state and/or local tax withholding obligations with respect to the payment of the PSUs and/or Dividend Equivalents shall be no greater than the number of Shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date on which the withholding obligation raises equal to the aggregate amount of such withholding obligations based on the maximum statutory withholding rates in Participant’s applicable jurisdictions for federal, state, local and/or foreign income and payroll tax purposes
Section 5.11 - Clawback
Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement to the contrary, all PSUs and Dividend Equivalents awarded under this Agreement, and any Shares issued upon settlement hereunder shall be subject to forfeiture, or repayment pursuant to the terms of any policy that the Company may implement in compliance with the requirements of applicable law, including without limitation the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder.
