Continued Employment Vesting; Retirement. (a) Provided that the Participant remains in the continuous employ of the Company or one of its Affiliates from the Effective Date until the applicable Vesting Date set forth below or from the Effective Date until the date the Participant Retires, and provided that the Participant complies with the Restrictive Covenants in Section 13 below, the Units will vest and the Participant will be issued an equal number of nonforfeitable Shares in accordance with the following vesting schedule: Vesting Date Number of Units That Vest [●] [●] [●] [●] [●] [●] [●] [●] If the Units vest in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Shares will be issued within thirty (30) days after the applicable Vesting Date. The right of the Participant to continue to vest in the Award upon Retirement is contingent on the Participant’s compliance with the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Section 13 below. (b) In the event a Retired Participant dies after Retirement and before [●], and provided that the Participant complied with the Restrictive Covenants in Section 13 below, all remaining unvested Units will immediately vest upon the date of death and the Participant’s estate will be issued an equal number of nonforfeitable Shares within thirty (30) days after the earlier of the date the Company receives notice of the death or the Vesting Date. 3. Cancellation Upon Breach of Restrictive Covenants or Upon Termination of Employment Other Than by Retirement, Death or Disability. Any Units not vested in accordance with the provisions of Section 2 will be immediately cancelled at the time the Participant breaches any of the Restrictive Covenants in Section 13 below or at the time the Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or one of its Affiliates, unless such

Performance Unit Award [●] Page 2 termination of employment is a result of Retirement, death or Disability. If termination of employment is due to Retirement, then Section 2 shall apply. If termination of employment is due to death or Disability prior to Retirement, and provided that the Participant complied with the Restrictive covenants in Section 13 below prior to such termination, a pro rata number of the outstanding unvested Units awarded above will then immediately vest on the date of such Participant’s death or Disability and the Participant or the Participant’s estate will be issued an equal number of nonforfeitable Shares within thirty (30) days after the date that employment ends on account of death or Disability. Proration will be calculated for each tranche of unvested Units remaining to vest on a Vesting Date, based on the number of days of continuous employment after the Effective Date and prior to death or Disability relative to the total number of days from the Effective Date to the applicable Vesting Date. The remaining Units (i.e., the excess of the pro-rated Units that vest) will be forfeited on the date of termination. 4. Change in Control. The Award will be subject to the terms of Section 15(c) of the Plan in connection with a Change in Control. 5. Definitions. For purposes of this Notice of Award, “Retire” or “Retirement” means the Participant’s voluntary resignation from active employment with the Company and its Affiliates, while in good standing, after having completed at least ten years of full-time continuous service as an employee of the Company or an Affiliate, and where the sum of the Participant’s age plus years of service is not less than seventy-five (75); provided that, periods of employment with an Affiliate prior to the date it became an Affiliate and periods credited as service for other benefit purposes even though the Participant was not performing services for the Company or an Affiliate shall not be recognized as continuous service of this purpose. 6. Dividend and Voting Rights. The Participant will have no voting rights with respect to the Units until such time as they have vested and the Shares are issued. The Participant will have no dividend rights with respect to the Units until such time as they have vested and the Shares are issued. 7. Transferability. The Units may not be assigned or transferred. 8. Recoupment Policy. The Units and any Shares issued with respect to the Units (and any additional shares issued on account of a stock split, stock dividend, etc.) are subject to cancellation, adjustment or forfeiture in accordance with the Executive Compensation Recovery Policy as such policy may be in effect from time to time. All certificates issued to represent such Shares shall bear a legend setting forth such restriction. 9. Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding any contrary provision, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of income, employment and other taxes which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to the vesting of Units, no certificate representing Shares from said Units shall be delivered. To the extent determined appropriate by the Company in its discretion, it shall have the right (but not the obligation) to satisfy any tax withholding obligations by reducing the number of Shares otherwise deliverable to Participant.
