Adjustment in Authorized Shares and Awards. In the event that the Committee determines that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of Common Stock, or other property), recapitalization, forward or reverse stock split, subdivision, consolidation or reduction of capital, reorganization, merger, consolidation, scheme of arrangement, split-up, spin-off or combination involving the Company or repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities of the Company or other rights to purchase shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares such that any adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Agreement, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of # the number and type of Shares (or other securities or property) subject to the Option, # the Strike Price with respect to the Option or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for a cash payment to the Grantee, and # the number and kind of Shares underlying the Option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such adjustment shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment would cause the Option to violate Section 424(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time (the “Code”) or otherwise subject (in the determination of the Committee) any Grantee to taxation under Section 409A of the Code; and provided further that the number of Shares subject to the Option shall always be a whole number.

Adjustment. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization (including, without limitation, extraordinary cash dividend), share dividend, share split, reverse share split, spin-off, stock rights offering, liquidation, acquisition of property or shares, combination of shares or other similar event affecting the Company, the Committee shall make such substitution(s) or adjustment(s) as it deems appropriate and equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights of Participants under the Plan to: the aggregate number and kind of shares of Stock or other security(ies) reserved for issuance under the Plan; in the maximum number of shares that may be subject to Awards granted to any Eligible Director during any calendar year or other period; the number and kind of shares of Stock or other security(ies) subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan; the Option Exercise Price of any outstanding Options and strike price/base price of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Right; provided, in each case, that no such adjustment authorized under this Section 3(c) shall be made to the extent that such adjustment would cause an Award to be subject to adverse tax consequences to the Participant under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may provide that the number of shares of Stock with respect to any Award shall always be a whole number, and for the payment of fractional shares to be paid out in cash.

Section # Adjustments in the Event of Business Reorganization. In the event any recapitalization, forward or reverse split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or exchange of Shares for other securities, stock dividend or other special and nonrecurring dividend or distribution (whether in the form of cash, securities or other property), liquidation, dissolution, or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Shares such that an adjustment is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Recipients under the Plan, then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of # the number and kind of securities deemed to be available thereafter for issuances of Shares in the aggregate to all Eligible Directors and individually to any one Eligible Director and # the number and kind of securities that may be delivered or deliverable in respect of undistributed Shares. In addition, the Committee is authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, grants of Shares (including, without limitation, cancellation of awards in exchange for the in-the-money value, if any, of the vested portion thereof, or substitution of Shares using stock of a successor or other entity) in recognition of unusual or nonrecurring events (including, without limitation, events described in the preceding sentence) affecting the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary or the financial statements of the Corporation or any parent or subsidiary, or in response to changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles.

In the event of any reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or shares, separation, asset spin-off, stock rights offering, liquidation or other similar change in the capital structure of the Company, the Board shall make such adjustment, if any, as it deems appropriate in the number, kind and purchase price of the Shares available for purchase under the Plan. In the event that, at a time when options are outstanding hereunder, there occurs a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, except pursuant to a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code applies, each option to purchase Shares shall terminate, but the Participant holding such option shall have the right to exercise his or her option prior to such termination of the option upon the dissolution or liquidation. The Company reserves the right to reduce the number of Shares which Employees may purchase pursuant to their enrollment in the Plan.

Adjustments. In the event of a merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, separation, liquidation, stock dividend, stock split, share combination, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Shares, such adjustment shall be made in the number of outstanding Stock Units as may be determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Board, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights.
