(b)If prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant Participant’s employment with the Corporation and its affiliates terminates for any reason other than Cause, Participant will vest in 25% of the Units if the employment termination occurs on or after the first anniversary of the date of grant and prior to the second anniversary of the date of grant, or 50% of the Units if the employment termination occurs on or after the second anniversary of the date of grant and prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant.
(c)If prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant, Participant’s employment with the Corporation and its affiliates terminates due to Retirement, death or Disability, Units that do not vest in accordance with Section 2(b) above will vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant.

(b)The number of Units subject to the Grant that vest in accordance with Section 2(b) above shall be adjusted by the Committee following the date of Participant’s termination of employment based on the level of achievement of the Performance Goal and the TSR Modifier for the relevant Performance Cycle, as described on Exhibit A attached hereto. The adjusted Units shall convert to the same number of shares of stock following the end of the Performance Period and shall be distributed to Participant no later than March 15 following the end of the Performance Period.
Section 4.Right of Recoupment. The Grant of the Units is expressly made subject to and conditioned on the “Right of Recoupment” provisions in the Plan.

TSR Modifier
The aggregate number of Units as adjusted based on achievement of the Performance Goal targets will be modified by the TSR Modifier set forth below, and the aggregate number of adjusted Units will be converted to shares.
The following schedule will be used to determine the modifier applied to initially earned Units:


5


Percentile Ranking vs. the Peer Group
Modifier
75th Percentile and above
+25%
Above 25th Percentile and below 75th Percentile
Linearly interpolated
25th Percentile and below
-25%

Note: Regardless of relative position, if absolute TSR is negative for the Performance Period, overall payment (including banked EBITDA Margin payouts) will be capped at 150% of target.


Adjustment of Units Following Termination of Employment

In the event of a termination of employment as described in Section 2(b) of the Agreement, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Relative TSR will be determined for the relevant Performance Cycle (i.e., the First Performance Cycle in the case of a termination occurring on or after the first anniversary of the date of grant and prior to the second anniversary of the date of grant, and the Second Performance Cycle in the case of a termination occurring on or after the second anniversary of the date of grant and prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant), and the Units subject to each such relevant Performance Cycle will be adjusted pursuant to the table above. The Units subject to a Performance Cycle not then ended or ended but prior to the immediately following anniversary of the date of grant will be forfeited.



1“Adjusted EBITDA” means the Corporation’s consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted for any events or occurrences (including acquisition expenses, extraordinary charges, losses from discontinued operations, restatements and accounting charges, restructuring expenses, asset write-downs, administrative costs associated with debt and equity refinancing, litigation or claims, judgments or settlements, effect of changes in tax laws and foreign exchange gains and losses) as may be determined by the Committee.  “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” for a fiscal year means the Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue.

2For purposes of calculating TSR, the beginning stock price shall be the simple average closing stock price for the 20 trading days prior to the first day of the Performance Period. The ending stock price shall be the simple average closing stock price for the last 20 trading days of the Performance Period. Dividends shall be deemed reinvested on the related ex-dividend date.
