General Rule. The Committee may grant ISOs only to Employees (including officers who are Employees) of the Company or an Affiliate that is a “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” within the meaning of Section 424 of the Code, and may grant all other Awards to any Eligible Person. A Participant who has been granted an Award may be granted an additional Award or Awards if the Committee shall so determine, if such person is otherwise an Eligible Person and if otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Basic Rule. In the event that the Advisor determines that any payment or transfer by the Company under the Plan to or for the benefit of a Participant (a “Payment’) would be nondeductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes because of the provisions concerning “excess parachute payments” in Section 280G of the Code, then the aggregate present value of all Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the Reduced Amount. For purposes of this [Section 17], the “Reduced Amount” shall be the amount, expressed as a present value, which maximizes the aggregate present value of the Payments without causing any Payment to be nondeductible by the Company because of Section 280G of the Code.

Rule 144.

General Rule. Except as provided in [[Subsections (b) and (c)])]])] below, a Participant must be actively employed by the Company on the date the amount payable with respect to his/her Award is determined by the Committee (the “Determination Date”) in order to be entitled to payment of any Award for that Year or other measurement period. A Participant who terminates employment with the Company prior to the Determination Date under any circumstances other than those set forth in [[Subsections (b) and (c)])]])] shall not be entitled to receive any Award for the Year or other measurement period in which such termination of employment occurs.

General Rule. One-third of the Restricted Stock Units will vest on each of the first anniversary, second anniversary and third anniversary of the Award Date, provided that the Participant has remained continuously employed by the Company or a Related Company through the applicable vesting date, except as otherwise specifically provided in these Award Terms. Restricted Stock Units that have already vested on either the first or second anniversary of the Award Date (as applicable) shall not be forfeited if the Participant does not remain employed thereafter through the entire Restricted Period.
