EXHIBIT A
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Grant of Option:
This agreement evidences the grant by the Company, on the grant date (the “Grant Date”) set forth in the Notice of Grant that forms part of this agreement (the “Notice of Grant”), to you of an option to purchase, in whole or in part, on the terms provided herein and in the Company’s 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant of common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (“Common Stock”), at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant. Unless earlier terminated, this option shall expire at the close of the primary trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (or such other national stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed) on the Last Date to Exercise set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Last Date to Exercise”).
Except as otherwise indicated by the context, “you,” as used in this option, shall be deemed to include any person who acquires the right to exercise this option validly under its terms.
Vesting:
This option will become exercisable (“vest”) in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Grant and will have a seven (7) year term. Your option may also vest upon your death or total disability or in connection with certain terminations of employment following a Change in Control Event, each as described below.
Exercise:
You may exercise this option, in whole or in part, to purchase a whole number of vested shares at any time, by following the exercise procedures set up by the Company. All exercises must take place by the Last Date to Exercise, or such earlier date as is set forth below following your death, disability or your ceasing to be an employee, or a Change in Control Event. The number of shares you may purchase as of any date cannot exceed the total number of shares vested by that date, less any shares you have previously acquired by exercising this option.
Employment Requirements:
In the event of your termination of employment, retirement, death or total disability, then, subject to the terms described below under “Consequences of a Change in Control”, the following terms apply:
• | If your employment is terminated for reasons other than retirement (as defined below), death, or total disability, you will be able to exercise your stock options that are vested as of your last day of employment through the earlier of the option’s Last Date to Exercise or three (3) months after your last day of employment. All unvested stock options as of your last day of employment will be cancelled as of the close of business on your last day of employment. |

Officer Stock Option (Double Trigger)
• | If you terminate your employment at or after age 55 and you have 10 years of service at the time of your termination (any termination subject to this bulleted paragraph, “retirement”, and which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any termination of your employment referenced in the bulleted paragraph immediately below), you will be able to exercise your stock options that are vested as of your last day of employment through the earlier of the option’s Last Date to Exercise or three (3) years after your last day of employment. All unvested stock options as of your last day of employment will be cancelled as of the close of business on your last day of employment. |
• | If your employment is terminated due to your death or total disability as determined under the Company’s long term disability program, your unvested options become 100% vested as of your last day of employment. You, in the event of your total disability, or your estate, in the event of your death, have until the earlier of the option’s Last Date to Exercise or one (1) year after your last day of employment to exercise your options. |
The option may be transferred by gift or pursuant to a domestic relations order to your child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing your household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which these persons (or you) control the management of assets, any other entity in which these persons (or you) own more than fifty percent of the voting interests. The transferee shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to this option prior to the transfer and the transfer shall not be effective until the transferee, as a condition to transfer, has delivered to the Company a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Company confirming that the transferee shall be subject to all terms and conditions applicable to this option. Except as provided herein, this option shall not be assignable or transferable by the person to whom it is granted, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the life of the optionee, shall be exercisable only by the optionee.
Any reference in this agreement to your “employment” refers to your employment by the Company (as defined in the Plan).
Taxes and Withholding:
This option is intended to be a nonstatutory stock option. In the event that the Company determines that any federal, state, local or foreign tax or withholding payment is required relating to the exercise or sale of shares arising from this grant, the Company shall have the right to require such payments from you, or withhold such amounts from other payments due to you from the Company.
Agreements with the Company:
This stock option grant is subject to the terms and conditions of your signed and executed Prohibited Activity Agreement and your Employee Patent and Proprietary Information Utilization Agreement. If you terminate your employment with the Company and engage in any

Prohibited Activity (as defined the Prohibited Activity Agreement) within two years after you terminate employment, you will repay to the Company the economic value of any stock option granted to you which is exercised by you at any time after the date which is twelve months prior to the date of your termination of employment.
Consequences of a Change in Control:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth under “Employment Requirements” above, in the event that your employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below) or you resign your employment for Good Reason (as defined below), in each case within thirty-six months after the effective date of a Change in Control Event (regardless of whether such event also constitutes a Reorganization Event (as defined in the Plan)) and you were employed by the Company on the effective date of such Change in Control Event, then your unvested options will become 100% vested as of your last day of employment, and the vested option award shall remain exercisable through the period ending on the earlier of:
1. | The later of (i) the third anniversary of the effective date of such Change in Control Event or (ii) the first anniversary of the date your employment with the Company terminates, or |
