Remove:

Each Participant’s Award for a Plan Year will be determined after the end of each Plan Year by multiplying the Participant’s Target Award by the Final Funding Percentage; and multiplying such amount by the applicable Individual Performance Modifier determined in accordance with [Article VI].B. below. The O&C Committee shall determine each Award for Executive Officers and Additional Persons and the Executive Team shall determine each Award for other Participants.

Determination of Individual Awards. Subject to achievement of any applicable minimum threshold objectives established under [Section 7], fulfillment of the conditions set forth in [Section 13], and compliance with the eligibility requirements set forth in [Section 5(b)], the Committee shall, as soon as practicable following, but not later than the December 31st immediately following, the end of a Performance Period, determine the amount of each Award to be made to a Participant under the Plan for the Performance Period, which amount shall, except as otherwise provided below, be the Business Performance Factor multiplied by the Target Award determined for such Participant for such Period pursuant to [Section 9]. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount of any Award that otherwise would be awarded to any Participant for any Performance Period. In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, increase the amount of any Award that otherwise would be awarded to any Participant for a Performance Period to an amount that is higher than the applicable Business Performance Factor multiplied by the Target Award based on exceptional individual, unit, division, group or Company performance. A Participant’s final Award may be adjusted up or down by their management to reflect their individual performance, except that any matters affecting [Section 16] Persons or Executive Participants shall remain with the Committee. Individual Award amounts may be less than (including ) or greater than 100% of the related Target Award. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may determine in its sole discretion not to make an Award to a particular Participant or to all Participants selected to participate in the Plan for any Performance Period.

Awards to Corporate participants will be based on their Guideline Incentive (eligible salary multiplied by the applicable guideline percentage) multiplied by the Corporate Final Performance Index. The Corporate Final Performance Index shall be based on the consolidated financial performance of the Company including Graybar Corporate, districts, zones and all subsidiaries as determined from time to time in accordance with guidelines adopted by the Board.

Each Participant’s award will be based upon the level of actual performance achieved relative to the established performance measures, as determined by a percentage from 0 percent to a maximum of 250 percent, as determined by the Administrator.

The Administrator shall have the sole discretion to determine each Participant’s award. The Administrator’s decision will be based upon the level of actual performance achieved.

Article # Determination of Individual Participant Awards and Application of

The Committee shall determine the actual Award payable to each Participant for each Year or other measurement period, taking into consideration, as it deems appropriate, the performance of the Company, Affiliate and/or a Business Unit, as the case may be, for the Year or other measurement period in relation to the Performance Goals theretofore established by the Committee, and the performance of the respective Participants during the Year or other measurement period. The fact that an Employee is selected as a Participant for any Year or other measurement period shall not mean that such Employee necessarily will receive an Award for that Year or other measurement period. The Committee may, in its discretion, increase or reduce the amount of an Award otherwise earned hereunder after considering such factors as it deems appropriate, including individual performance factors. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan to the contrary, the Committee may grant discretionary Awards as it sees fit under the Plan.

Determination. The determination as to whether, and the extent to which, the performance vesting requirements of this paragraph # have been satisfied for the Performance Period shall be made as soon as practicable after the end of the Performance Period with an effective date of [date], and such results must be certified in writing by the Committee before settlement.

Determination. The Company agrees that Indemnitee shall be indemnified to the fullest extent permitted by law and that no Determination shall be required in connection with such indemnification unless specifically required by applicable law which cannot be waived. In no event shall a Determination be required in connection with indemnification for Expenses pursuant to [Section 5] of this Agreement or incurred in connection with any Proceeding or portion thereof with respect to which Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise. Any decision that a Determination is required by law in connection with any other indemnification of Indemnitee, and any such Determination, shall be made within twenty (20) days after receipt of Indemnitee’s written request for indemnification pursuant to [Section 7(c)(ii)] and such Determination shall be made by the Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), even though less than a quorum, unless Indemnitee, in Indemnitee’s sole discretion, provides written notice to the Company within five (5) business days after either notification to Indemnitee that the Company intends to make a Determination, or a demand by Indemnitee for a Determination, that such Determination shall be made by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined). Further, in the event of a Determination by the Disinterested Directors and a disagreement between or among the Disinterested Directors with respect to such Determination, such Determination shall be made by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined) in a written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee. If a Determination is made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) business days after such Determination. Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such Determination. Any Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel, as the case may be, making such determination shall be advanced and borne by the Company (irrespective of the Determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification) and the Company is liable to indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom. If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under [Section 7(d)] of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification shall not have made a determination within twenty (20) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification, absent # a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or # a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law; provided, however, that such twenty (20) day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional twenty (20) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions of this [Section 7(d)] shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to [Section 7(e)].
