Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Plan. The Company and the Participant agree as follows:

1.Basis for Award. This Award is made under the Plan for services rendered to the Company by the Participant.

2.Performance Units Awarded. The Company hereby awards to the Participant on the Grant Date an Award consisting of, in the aggregate, the “Number of Performance Units” (hereafter, the “Performance Units”) listed on Exhibit 1 for the Participant, which shall be subject to the restrictions and conditions set forth in the Plan and this Agreement. The Performance Units shall vest and become payable in accordance with Section 4 and Exhibit 2 hereof following the Committee’s certification of the degree to which the performance goals set forth on Exhibit 2 have been achieved.

3.Restrictions. The Performance Units covered by this Award will be forfeited by the Participant and all of the Participant’s rights to such Performance Units shall immediately terminate without any payment or consideration by the Company, in the event of any sale, assignment, transfer, hypothecation, pledge or other alienation of such Performance Units made or attempted, whether voluntary or involuntary, and if involuntary whether by process of law in any civil or criminal suit, action or proceeding, whether in the nature of an insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise.

4.Vesting and Settlement.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4, the restrictions described in Section 3 of this Agreement will lapse in accordance with the vesting schedule (including performance conditions) set forth on Exhibit 2 of this Agreement, as such Exhibit may from time to time be updated, replaced or supplemented by the Committee (the period during which such restrictions apply, the “Restricted Period”); provided, that, the Participant must be in Continuous Service with the Company on the applicable vesting date or dates. Vested Performance Units shall be settled in the form and at the time or times set forth on Exhibit 2 of this Agreement.

(b)Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Committee may take such action with respect to the unvested Performance Units as it determines in its sole and absolute discretion consistent with the provisions of Section 12 of the Plan and the terms and conditions of any separate employment, severance or change in control agreement with the Participant.

(c)Unless otherwise provided by the Committee or the Plan, upon termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service with the Company for any reason prior to February 16, 2023, any

unvested Performance Units shall be forfeited and the Participant shall have no further rights with respect to the Award.

5.Tax Withholding. Upon settlement of any vested Performance Units, the Company shall withhold and pay any federal, state or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the Performance Units for which the restrictions shall lapse, or at Participant’s election, tax withholdings up to the maximum statutory tax rates in the Participant’s applicable jurisdictions.

6.No Right to Continuous Service. Nothing contained in the Plan or in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to the continuation of service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate his or her Continuous Service at any time.
