number of shares of Stock for which such substituted Option would have been exercisable. |
5.4 | Paperless Exercise. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the exercise of Options, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless exercise of Options by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system. |

In the sole discretion of the Committee, payment of the exercise price of any such Option shall be made pursuant to Section 5.1(c)(ii) or, subject to Section 14.13 or any applicable trading policy of the
Company, pursuant to Section 5.l(c)(iii), and the Company or any Subsidiary shall deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy all taxes associated with such exercise in accordance with Section 14.4. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, this Section 5.5 shall not apply to an Option if the holder of such Option incurs a termination of employment or service on or before the Automatic Exercise Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Option with an exercise price per share of Stock that is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value per share of Stock on the Automatic Exercise Date shall be exercised pursuant to this Section 5.5. |
6.1 | Grant
of Restricted Stock. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock to any Eligible Individual selected by the Committee in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. All Awards of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by a written Restricted Stock Award Agreement. |
6.2 | Issuance and Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, limitations on the right to vote Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, pursuant to such circumstances,
in such installments, or otherwise, as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. |
6.3 | Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of employment or service during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to restrictions shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled without consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may (a) provide in any Restricted Stock Award Agreement that restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock will be waived in whole or
in part in the event of a Change in Control, terminations resulting from specified causes or the occurrence of specified events, and (b) in other cases waive in whole or in part restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock. |
6.4 | Certificates for Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, and the Company may,
at its discretion, retain physical possession of the certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse. |
6.5 | Section 83(b) Election. If a Participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed with respect to the Restricted Stock as of the date of transfer of the Restricted Stock rather than as of the date or dates upon which the Participant would otherwise be taxable under Section 83(a) of the Code, the Participant shall be required to deliver a copy of such election to the Company promptly after filing such election with the Internal Revenue Service along with proof of the timely filing thereof with the Internal
Revenue Service. |
7.1 | Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. |
7.2 | Payment and Limitations
on Exercise. |
7.3 | Expiration of Stock Appreciation Right Term: Automatic Exercise of In-the-Money Stock Appreciation Rights. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee (in an Award Agreement or otherwise) or as otherwise directed by a Stock Appreciation Right holder in writing to the Company, each vested and exercisable Stock Appreciation Right outstanding on the Automatic Exercise Date with an exercise price per share of Stock that is less than the
Fair Market Value per share of Stock as of such date shall automatically and without further action by the Stock Appreciation Right holder or the Company be exercised on the Automatic Exercise Date. In the sole discretion of the Committee, the Company or any Subsidiary shall deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy all taxes associated with such exercise in accordance with Section 14.4. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, this Section 7.3 shall not apply to a Stock Appreciation Right if the holder of such Stock Appreciation Right incurs a termination of employment or service on or before the Automatic Exercise Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise price per share of Stock that is equal to or greater than the Fair Market Value per share of Stock
on the Automatic Exercise Date shall be exercised pursuant to this Section 7.3. |
8.1 | Performance-Based Awards. |
8.2 | Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be granted by the Committee based on dividends declared on the Stock, to be credited as of dividend payment dates during the period between the date an Award is granted to a Participant and the date such Award vests, is exercised, is distributed or expires,
as determined by the Committee. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional shares of Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Committee. In addition, Dividend Equivalents with respect to an Award with performance-based vesting that are based on dividends paid prior to the vesting of such Award shall only be paid out to the Participant to the extent that the performance-based vesting conditions are subsequently satisfied and the Award vests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Dividend Equivalents shall be payable with respect to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. |
8.3 | Stock Payments. The Committee is authorized to make Stock Payments to any Eligible
Individual. The number or value of shares of any Stock Payment shall be determined by the Committee and may be based upon one or more Performance Criteria or any other specific criteria, including service to the Company or any Subsidiary, determined by the Committee. |
8.4 | Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units to any Eligible Individual. The number and terms and conditions of Restricted Stock Units shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall specify the date or dates on which the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions to vesting as it deems appropriate, including conditions based on one or more Performance Criteria or other specific criteria, including service to the
Company or any Subsidiary, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods, as determined by the Committee. The Committee shall specify, or permit the Participant to elect, the conditions and dates upon which the Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units shall be issued, which dates shall not be earlier than the date as of which the Restricted Stock Units vest and become nonforfeitable and which conditions and dates shall be subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Restricted Stock Units may be paid in cash, Stock, or both, as determined by the Committee. On the distribution dates, the Company shall issue to the Participant one unrestricted, fully transferable share of Stock (or the Fair Market Value of one such share in cash) for each vested and nonforfeitable Restricted Stock Unit. |
8.5 | Deferred
Stock. The Committee is authorized to grant Deferred Stock to any Eligible Individual. The number of shares of Deferred Stock shall be determined by the Committee and may (but is not required to) be based on one or more Performance Criteria or other specific criteria, including service to the Company or any Subsidiary, as the Committee determines, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. Shares of Stock underlying a Deferred Stock award which is subject to a vesting schedule or other conditions or criteria set by the Committee shall be issued on the vesting date(s) or date(s) that those conditions and criteria have been satisfied, as applicable. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, a Participant granted Deferred Stock shall have no rights as a Company shareholder with respect to such Deferred Stock
until such time as the Award has vested and any other applicable conditions and/or criteria have been satisfied and the Stock underlying the Award has been issued to the Participant. |
8.6 | Deferred Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to grant Deferred Stock Units to any Eligible Individual. The number of Deferred Stock Units shall be determined by the Committee and may (but is not required to) be based on one or more Performance Criteria or other specific criteria, including service to the Company or any Subsidiary, as the Committee determines, in each case on a specified date
or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. Each Deferred Stock Unit shall entitle the Participant to receive one share of Stock on the date the Deferred Stock Unit becomes vested or upon a specified settlement date thereafter. Shares of Stock underlying a Deferred Stock Unit award which is subject to a vesting schedule or other conditions or criteria set by the Committee shall not be issued until or following the date that those conditions and criteria have been satisfied, provided, however, that to the extent necessary, such conditions and dates shall be subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Code. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, a Participant granted Deferred Stock Units shall have no rights as a Company shareholder with respect to such Deferred Stock Units until such time as the Award has vested and any other applicable conditions and/or criteria have been satisfied and the
Stock underlying the Award have been issued to the Participant. |
8.7 | Term. The term of a Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent award, Stock Payment award, Restricted Stock Unit award, Deferred Stock award and/or Deferred Stock Unit award shall be set by the Committee in its sole discretion. |
8.8 | Exercise or Purchase Price. The Committee may establish the exercise or purchase price of a Performance Award, shares distributed as a Stock Payment award, shares distributed pursuant to a Restricted
Stock Unit award, shares of Deferred Stock or shares distributed pursuant to a Deferred Stock Unit award; provided, however, that value of the consideration shall not be less than the par value of a share of Stock, unless otherwise permitted by applicable law. |
8.9 | Termination of Employment or Service. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, a Performance Award, Dividend Equivalent award, Stock Payment award, Restricted Stock Unit award, Deferred Stock award and/or Deferred Stock Unit award is only distributable while the Participant is employed by or providing services to the
Company or a Subsidiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide that an Award may be distributed following a Participant’s termination of employment or service in certain events, including in the event of a Change in Control and/or terminations resulting from specified causes. |
9.1 | Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted
in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards. |
9.2 | Award Agreement. Awards under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements that set forth the terms, conditions and limitations for each Award, which may include the term of an Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant’s employment or service terminates, certain restrictive covenants and agreements, and the Company’s authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind an Award. |
9.3 | Limits
on Transfer. No right or interest of a Participant in any Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a Subsidiary, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company or a Subsidiary. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, no Award shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee by express provision in the Award or an amendment thereto may permit an Award (other than an Incentive Stock Option) to be transferred to, exercised by and paid to certain persons or entities related to the Participant, including but not limited to members of the Participant’s
family, charitable institutions, or trusts or other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of the Participant’s family and/or charitable institutions, or to such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the Committee, pursuant to such conditions and procedures as the Committee may establish subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to a transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the permitted transferee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) an Award transferred to a permitted transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Participant (other than the ability to further transfer the Award); and (iii) the Participant and the permitted transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Committee, including, without limitation documents to (A) confirm the status of the transferee as a permitted
transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws and (C) evidence the transfer. |
9.4 | Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 9.3, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the
Plan and Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the Participant’s spouse as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant’s interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant’s spouse. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee. |
9.5 | Stock
Certificates; Book Entry Procedures. |
9.6 | Forfeiture and Claw-Back Provisions. Pursuant to its general authority to determine the terms and conditions applicable to Awards under the Plan, the Committee shall have the right to provide, in an
Award Agreement or otherwise, or to require a Participant to agree by separate written or electronic instrument, that: |
10.1 | Adjustments. |
10.2 | Acceleration Upon a Change in Control. |
10.3 | The existence of the Plan, any program, any Award Agreement and/or the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the
Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Company Stock or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Company Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise. |
10.4 | In
the event of any pending stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the Shares or the share price of the Common Stock including any Equity Restructuring, for reasons of administrative convenience, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may refuse to permit the exercise of any Award during a period of up to thirty (30) days prior to the consummation of any such transaction. |
10.5 | No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any
class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award. |
11.1 | Committee.
The Plan shall be administered by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) consisting solely of at least two or more members of the Board who are each Non-Employee Directors. Additionally, to the extent required by applicable law, each of the individuals constituting the Compensation Committee of the Board (or another committee or subcommittee of the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board assuming the functions of the Committee under the Plan) shall be an “independent director” under the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted or traded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 11.1 or otherwise
provided in any charter of the Committee. Except as may otherwise be provided in any charter of the Committee, appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written or electronic notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may only be filled by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) the full Board, acting by a majority of its members in office, shall conduct the general administration of the Plan with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors and, with respect to such Awards, the term “Committee” as used in the Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board and (b) the Board or Committee may delegate its authority hereunder to the extent permitted by Section 11.5. |
11.2 | Action
by the Committee. Unless otherwise established by the Board or in any charter of the Committee, a majority of the Committee shall constitute a quorum. The acts of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present, and acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee in lieu of a meeting, shall be deemed the acts of the Committee. Each member of the Committee is entitled to, in good faith, rely or act upon any report or other information furnished to that member by any Officer or other Employee of the Company or any Subsidiary, the Company’s independent registered public accountants, or any executive compensation consultant or other professional retained by the Company
to assist in the administration of the Plan. The Committee shall select one of its members as a Chairman, who shall preside at meetings and who shall have authority to execute and deliver documents on behalf of the Committee. Meetings of the Committee shall be held at such times and places as the members thereof may determine. |
11.3 | Authority of Committee. Subject to any specific designation in the Plan, the Committee has the exclusive power, authority and discretion to: |
11.4 | Decisions Binding. The Committee’s interpretation of the Plan, any Awards granted pursuant to the Plan, any Award Agreement and all decisions and determinations by the Committee with respect to the Plan are final, binding, and conclusive on all parties. |
11.5 | Delegation
of Authority. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board or Committee may from time to time delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board or one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant or amend Awards or to take other administrative actions pursuant to this Article 11; provided, however, that in no event shall an officer of the Company be delegated the authority to grant awards to, or amend awards held by, the following individuals: (a) individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, or (b) officers of the Company (or Directors) to whom authority to grant or amend Awards has been delegated hereunder; provided,
further, that any delegation of administrative authority shall only be permitted to the extent it is permissible under applicable law. Any delegation hereunder shall be subject to the restrictions and limits that the Board or Committee specifies at the time of such delegation, and the Board may at any time rescind the authority so delegated or appoint a new delegatee. At all times, the delegatee appointed under this Section 11.5 shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the Board and the Committee. |
12.1 | Effective Date. The Plan was originally effective on May
2, 2005, the date the Plan was initially approved by the Company’s shareholders, and was previously amended and restated effective as of May 3, 2010, May 5, 2015 and December 6, 2016, each date being the date the Plan (as previously amended and restated) was approved by the Company’s shareholders, except for December 6, 2016, on which date the amendment and restatement of the Plan was approved by the Board. This amendment and restatement of the Plan shall be effective on the date it is approved by the Company’s Board (the
“Restatement Effective. Date”). |
12.2 | Expiration Date. The Plan will expire on, and no Incentive Stock Option or other Award may be granted pursuant to the Plan after, the tenth anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date on which the amendment and restatement of the Plan was most recently approved by the Company’s shareholders. Any Awards that are outstanding on such tenth anniversary shall remain in force according to the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement. |
13.1 | Amendment, Modification, and Termination. With the approval of the Board, at any time and from time to time, the Committee may terminate, amend or modify the Plan; provided, however, that to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with any applicable law, regulation, or stock exchange rule, the Company shall obtain shareholder approval of any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required. Such shareholder approval may be required for any amendment to the Plan that (i) increases the number of shares available under the Plan (other than any adjustment as provided
by Article 10), (ii) permits the Committee to grant Options or Stock Appreciation Rights with an exercise or base price that is below Fair Market Value on the date of grant, (iii) permits the Committee to extend the exercise period for an Option or Stock Appreciation Right beyond ten years from the date of grant, or (iv) results in a material increase in benefits or a change in eligibility requirements. Notwithstanding any provision in this Plan to the contrary, absent approval of the shareholders of the Company, (i) no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be amended to reduce the per share exercise or base price of the shares subject to such Option or Stock Appreciation Right below the per share exercise or base price as of the date the Option or Stock Appreciation Right is granted (ii) no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be cancelled in exchange for cash when the per share exercise
or base price of such Award exceeds the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares of stock, and (iii) except as permitted by Article 10, no Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be granted in exchange for, or in connection with, the cancellation or surrender of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right having a higher per share exercise or base price. When an amendment to the Plan is subject to shareholder approval, such amendment (or amendment and restatement, as applicable) will be deemed to be approved by the shareholders if it receives the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting duly held in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Company’s By-laws. In the event that the Company’s shareholders
do not approve this amendment and restatement of the Plan, the Plan will continue in full force and effect on its terms and conditions as in effect immediately prior to the date that the Plan (as amended and restated herein) was approved by the Board. |
13.2 | Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan shall adversely affect in any material way any Award previously granted pursuant to the Plan without the prior written consent of the Participant. It is intended that the Plan comply fully with and meet all of the requirements for the Section 162(m) Exception with respect to Awards granted hereunder prior to November
2, 2017. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, this amendment and restatement of the Plan as of the Restatement Effective Date does not and shall not modify the terms or conditions of any Award made pursuant to a written binding contract in effect on November 2, 2017 that is intended to meet the Section 162(m) Exception. |
14.1 | Absence from Work. A Participant who is absent from work with the
Company or a Subsidiary because of illness or temporary disability, or who is on leave of absence for such purpose or reason as the Committee may approve, shall not be deemed during the period of such absence, by reason of such absence, to have ceased to be an Employee of the Company or a Subsidiary. Where a cessation of employment is to be considered a retirement with the consent of the Company or by reason of Disability for the purpose of this Plan shall be determined by the Committee, which determination shall be final and conclusive. |
14.2 | No Rights to Awards. No
Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Committee is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Participants or any other persons uniformly. |
14.3 | No Shareholder Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Participant shall have none of the rights of a shareholder with respect to shares of Stock covered by any Award until the Participant becomes the record owner of such shares of Stock. |
14.4 | Withholding.
The Company or any Subsidiary shall have the authority and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including the Participant’s FICA, employment tax or other social security contribution obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event concerning a Participant arising as a result of this Plan. The Committee may in its discretion and in satisfaction of the foregoing requirement allow a Participant to elect to have the Company withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable under an Award (or allow the surrender of shares of Stock) having a Fair Market Value equal to
the sums required to be withheld. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of shares of Stock which may be so withheld or surrendered with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of any Award (or which may be repurchased from the Participant of such Award within six months (or such other period as may be determined by the Committee) after such shares of Stock were acquired by the Participant from the Company) in order to satisfy the Participant’s federal, state, local and foreign income and payroll tax liabilities with respect to the issuance, vesting, exercise or payment of the Award shall be limited to the number of shares which have a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding or repurchase equal to the aggregate amount of such liabilities based on the minimum statutory withholding rates for federal, state, local and foreign income tax and payroll
tax purposes that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income. The Committee shall determine the fair market value of the shares of Stock, consistent with the applicable provisions of the Code, for tax withholding obligations due in connection with a broker-assisted cashless Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise involving the sale of shares of Stock to pay the Option or Stock Appreciation Right exercise price or any tax withholding obligation. |
14.5 | No Right to Employment or Services. Nothing in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate any Participant’s
employment or services at any time, nor confer upon any Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Subsidiary. |
14.6 | Unfunded Status of Awards. The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Subsidiary. |
14.7 | Indemnification.
To the extent allowable pursuant to applicable law, each member of the Committee or of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her; provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he or she undertakes to
handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless. |
14.8 | Relationship to other Benefits. No
payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits pursuant to any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare or other benefit plan of the Company or any Subsidiary except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder. |
14.9 | Expenses. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Subsidiaries. |
14.10 | Titles
and Headings. The titles and headings of the Sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. |
14.11 | Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued and the Committee shall determine, in its discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional shares or whether such fractional shares shall be eliminated by rounding up or down as appropriate. |
14.12 | Section
409A. To the extent that the Committee determines that any Award granted under the Plan is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Award Agreement evidencing such Award shall incorporate the terms and conditions required by Section 409A of the Code. To the extent applicable, the Plan and any Award Agreements shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance (including such Department of Treasury guidance as may be issued after the date such Award is granted), the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive
effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Award from Section 409A of the Code and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and related Department of Treasury guidance and thereby avoid the application of any penalty taxes under such Section. Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the tax treatment of any Award under Section 409A of the Code or otherwise. The Company shall have no obligation under this Section 14.12 or otherwise to take any action (whether or not described herein) to avoid the imposition of taxes, penalties
or interest under Section 409A of the Code with respect to any Award and shall have no liability to any Participant or any other person if any Award, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute non-compliance, “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to the imposition of taxes, penalties and/or interest under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or an Award Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any payment hereunder constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, and the Participant is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) as of the date of the Participant’s separation from service, each such payment that is payable upon such grantee’s separation from service and would have been paid prior to the six-month anniversary of the Participant’s separation from service, shall be delayed until the earlier
to occur of (i) the first day of the seventh month following such Participant’s separation from service or (ii) the date of such Participant’s death. |
14.13 | Limitations Applicable to Section 16 Persons. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Plan, and any Award granted or awarded to any Participant who is then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in any applicable exemptive rule under Section 16 of the Exchange Act (including any amendment to Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) that are requirements for the application of such exemptive rule. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such applicable exemptive rule. |
14.14 | Government and Other Regulations. The obligation of the Company to make payment of Awards in Stock or otherwise shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by government agencies as may be required. The Company shall be under no obligation to register pursuant to the Securities Act, any of the shares of Stock paid pursuant to the Plan.
If the shares paid pursuant to the Plan may in certain circumstances be exempt from registration pursuant to the Securities Act, the Company may restrict the transfer of such shares in such manner as it deems advisable to ensure the availability of any such exemption. |
14.15 | Governing Law. The Plan and all Award Agreements shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Connecticut. |
