Changes in Control. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary
(other than the last sentence of this Section 10.04), a Participant shall be
entitled to receive the payment described in Section 10.03 for a Performance Period
if (i) such Participant’s employment is terminated by Xxxxx Xxxxxx or an Affiliate
during the Performance Period without Cause prior to a Change in Control (whether or
not a Change in Control ever occurs) and such termination was at the request or
direction of a Person who has entered into an agreement with Xxxxx Xxxxxx or an
Affiliate the consummation of which would constitute a Change in Control, (ii) such
Participant resigns during the Performance Period for Good Reason prior to a Change
in Control (whether or not a Change in Control ever occurs) and the circumstance or
event which constitutes Good Reason occurs at the request or direction of the Person
described in clause (i), or (iii) such Participant’s employment is terminated by
Xxxxx Xxxxxx or an Affiliate during the Performance Period without Cause or by the

the foregoing, if a Participant has an individual change of control agreement with
the Company, he shall be entitled to receive no payments pursuant to this Section
10.04 unless a Change in Control actually occurs during the Performance Period.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Agreement to be executed on the 18th day of
December, 2008.
