Discretion to Accept. The Committee shall have complete authority and discretion, but no obligation, to establish an Account for a Rollover Participant and credit the Account with the amount transferred from the Rollover Participant's account in a Rollover Plan, except that the Committee shall establish an Account for a Rollover Participant for whom benefits and liabilities have been transferred to this Plan from the EBP. Amounts credited to such Accounts are fully subject to the provisions of this Plan; provided, however, that a Rollover Participant from the EBP shall be deemed to have elected to invest his Account in the Stable Value Fund if such Rollover Participant fails to make an investment election. Reference in the Plan to such a crediting as a “rollover” or “transfer” from a Rollover Plan or the EBP is nominal in nature, and confers no additional rights upon a Rollover Participant other than those specifically set forth in the Plan.

Discretion. Any other provision in the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, # the Committee shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to pay to any Participant an annual incentive payment for such year in an amount based on individual performance or any other criteria or the occurrence of any such event that the Committee shall deem appropriate, and # the Committee may provide for a minimum incentive payment to any or all, or any class of, Participants in respect of any calendar year, regardless of whether any applicable performance objectives are attained.

Knowledge; Discretion. All references herein to a Purchaser’s or the Company’s knowledge shall be deemed to mean the knowledge of such party based on the actual knowledge of such party’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or such other persons holding equivalent offices. Unless specified to the contrary herein, all references herein to an exercise of discretion or judgment by a Purchaser, to the making of a determination or designation by a Purchaser, to the application of a Purchaser’s discretion or opinion, to the granting or withholding of a Purchaser’s consent or approval, to the consideration of whether a matter or thing is satisfactory or acceptable to a Purchaser, or otherwise involving the decision making of a Purchaser, shall be deemed to mean that such Purchaser shall decide using the reasonable discretion or judgment of a prudent lender.

Board Discretion. Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award need not be identical, and the Board need not treat Participants uniformly.

Committee Discretion. In all cases the Committee may: # reduce or eliminate the amount of any payment under the Plan that would otherwise be made to any Participant, and # determine that an amount shall be paid under the Plan that is greater than what would apply under the applicable performance goals, based on individual performance or any other criteria that the Committee deems appropriate.

Committee Discretion. The Committee will have full discretion to deny or grant any claim in whole or in part.

Exclusive Discretion. The Plan Administrator (set forth in Section 11(d)) shall have the exclusive discretion and authority to establish rules, forms, and procedures for the administration of the Plan and to construe and interpret the Plan and to decide any and all questions of fact, interpretation, definition, computation or administration arising in connection with the operation of the Plan, including, but not limited to, the eligibility to participate in the Plan and amount of benefits paid under the Plan. The rules, interpretations, computations and other actions of the Plan Administrator shall be binding and conclusive on all persons. Upon and after the closing of a Change of Control, the Plan will be interpreted and administered in good faith by one or more members of the Board or other persons or entities designated by the Board prior to or in connection with such Change of Control (the “Representative”) who shall be the Plan Administrator during such period. All actions taken by the Representative in interpreting the terms of the Plan and administering the Plan upon and after the Change of Control will be final and binding on all Executives. Any references in this Plan to the “Board” or “Plan Administrator” with respect to periods following the closing of a Change of Control shall mean the Representative.

The Administrator has the discretionary power and authority to make all determinations necessary for administration of the Plan, except those determinations that the Plan requires others to make, and to construe, interpret, apply and enforce the provisions of the Plan and its operation whenever necessary to carry out its intent and purpose and to facilitate its administration, including, without limitation, the discretionary power and authority to determine eligibility for benefits and to remedy ambiguities, inconsistencies, omissions and erroneous benefit calculations. In the exercise of its discretionary power and authority, the Administrator will treat all persons determined by the Administrator to be similarly situated in a uniform manner. All acts and decisions of the Administrator made in good faith are binding on all interested persons.

limited to, whether a termination is voluntarily or involuntary, whether a Participant’s termination is for Cause, whether a Participant is offered a Comparable Position, and whether Severance Pay shall be payable to any Participant under this Plan.
