Moreover, in the event of any such transaction or event or in the event of a Change in Control, the Committee may provide in substitution for any or all outstanding awards under this Plan such alternative consideration (including cash), if any, as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable in the circumstances and shall require in connection therewith the surrender of all awards so replaced in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code. In addition, for each Option Right or Appreciation Right with an Option Price or Base Price, respectively, greater than the consideration offered in connection with any such transaction or event or Change in Control, the Committee may in its discretion elect to cancel such Option Right or Appreciation Right without any payment to the Person holding such Option Right or Appreciation Right. The Committee shall also make or provide for such adjustments in the number of shares of Common Stock specified in Section 3 of this Plan as the Committee in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, determines is appropriate to reflect any transaction or event described in this Section 11; provided, however, that any such adjustment to the number specified in Section 3(c) of this Plan will be made only if and to the extent that such adjustment would not cause any Option Right intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option to fail to so qualify.

In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization (including, without limitation, extraordinary cash dividends), 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 (including any shares of Stock currently authorized by the Prior Plan and that increase the authorized shares under the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a)); # the various maximum limitations on the number of shares of Stock or Units that may be subject to Awards set forth in Section 3(d) granted to any Participant during any calendar year or other period; # the number and kind of shares of Stock or other securities subject to then outstanding Awards granted under the Plan; # the Option Exercise Price of any outstanding Stock Option and strike price/base value of any outstanding Stock Appreciation Right; and # any vesting criteria (including Performance Goals) applicable to any outstanding Award under the relevant Award Agreement; 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. Any adjustment or substitutions made under this Section 3(c) need not be the same for all Participants.

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.

If there shall occur any change with respect to the outstanding Shares by reason of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, extraordinary dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other distribution with respect to the Shares, or any merger, reorganization, consolidation, combination, spin-off or other similar corporate change, or any other change affecting the Common Stock, the Committee may, in the manner and to the extent that it deems appropriate and equitable to the Participants and consistent with the terms of the Plan, cause an adjustment to be made in # the maximum number and kind of Shares provided in Section 4.1, # the number and kind of Shares, units or other rights subject to then outstanding Awards, # the exercise or base price for each Share, unit or other right subject to then outstanding Awards, and # any other terms of an Award that are affected by the event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, any such adjustments shall, to the extent practicable, be made in a manner consistent with the requirements of [Section 424(a)] of the Code; and, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights such adjustments shall be in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
