Performance Units or Performance Shares. The maximum aggregate Award of Performance Units or Performance Shares that a Participant may receive in any one Plan Year shall be five hundred thousand (500,000) Shares, or equal to the value of five hundred thousand (500,000) Shares determined as of the date of vesting or payout, as applicable, plus the amount of the Participant’s unused applicable Annual Award Limit for Performance Units or Performance Shares as of the close of the previous Plan Year.

The goals associated with the PARSUs shall be established by the Committee, and will be communicated separately to the Employee by the Company. Shares delivered at the end of the Performance Period with respect to the PARSUs will range from 0% to 300% of the Target Amount of PARSUs, based upon the Company’s performance against the earnings per share (“EPS”) and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) goals as compared to S&P 500 performance, as certified by the Committee. No PARSUs will be achieved if performance is below threshold levels.

Performance Measures and Performance Goals. For each Plan Year, objective measures of performance will be identified to determine whether a Bonus target is earned in whole or in part. Performance measures may be based on consolidated net income, pre-tax income, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), income from continuing operations, income before extraordinary items, income from continuing operations before extraordinary items, earnings per share, earnings per share growth, return on equity, return on invested capital, return on net assets, revenue, revenue growth, gross margin, operating margin, net margin, cash flow, free cash flow, operating cash flow, working capital, stock price, total shareholder return or other measure adopted by the Committee or its delegate. Other non‑financial measures may be used such as safety, product launch timeliness, customer satisfaction, customer service and efficiency, workforce measures such as productivity, diversity, or turnover. Performance criteria based on such performance measures may be expressed in either, or a combination of, absolute or relative values or rates of change. Performance goals (“Performance Goals”) based on such performance measures may be based either on the performance of the Company, a subsidiary or subsidiaries, affiliate, department, or business unit, or upon a comparison of such performance with the performance of a peer group of companies, prior performance periods or other measure selected or defined by the Committee.

The Administrator is authorized to grant Performance Awards to any Eligible Individual. The value of Performance Awards may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific criteria determined by the Administrator, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Administrator.

Performance Component. The remaining fifty percent (50%) of your Incentive Bonus will vest and be earned based on a combination of your continued employment with the Company or any member of the Company Group and the achievement of certain performance metrics (the “Performance Component”). The Performance Component will be subdivided into five tranches as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “Performance Tranche”). Each Performance Tranche will vest and be earned in accordance with the terms of Exhibit A. You agree that you will repay to the Company the After-Tax Value of the Unvested Portion of the Performance Component within 20 days following the earlier to occur of # the Performance Completion Date and # the termination of your employment with the Company and the Company Group for any reason other than a Qualifying Termination; provided, however, that the “Performance Completion Date” will be replaced with the “Emergence Date” in certain circumstances for any repayment requirement with respect to Performance Tranche 2 (as described on Exhibit A), in which case you will repay to the Company the After-Tax Value of the Unvested Portion of the Performance Component that relates to Performance Tranche 2 within 20 days following the Emergence Date. For the sake of clarity, you will not be required to repay any Vested Portion of the Performance Component.

Vesting Period: Third anniversary of grant date.

Performance Goals. The Administrator may establish performance goals that relate to financial, operational or other performance of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or divisions, to individual performance objectives of the Covered Executive or to any other performance goal established by the Administrator in connection with a potential bonus payment (the “Performance Goals”). Performance Goals may relate to annual, semi-annual, quarterly or other performance periods established by the Administrator. It is expected that the Administrator establish annual bonus programs pursuant to this Bonus Plan. Following the completion of any performance period (at a time determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion) the Administrator may evaluate attainment of the Performance Goals. The Administrator may revise or refine Performance Goals in its discretion.

Performance; Time. Whenever any performance obligation hereunder shall be stated to be due or required to be satisfied on a day other than a Business Day, such performance shall be made or satisfied on the next succeeding Business Day. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”; the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”, and the word “through” means “to and including”. If any provision of this Agreement refers to any action taken or to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be interpreted to encompass any and all means, direct or indirect, of taking, or not taking, such action.

Performance Units. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 10(c), the Committee may in its discretion grant Performance Units to any Eligible Person and shall evidence such grant in an Award Agreement that is delivered to the Participant which sets forth the terms and conditions of the Award.

Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that monetary damages or other legal remedies would not be an adequate remedy for such damage. It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including in the form of an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they shall be entitled to specifically enforce the provisions of this Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
