If the Company Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or quoted on any established stock market system (including the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC Markets Group), Fair Market Value shall be the closing price for the Company Stock on the date as of which Fair Market Value is determined for any purpose under the Plan (or if no trades were reported the closing price on the immediately preceding date on which the Company Stock was traded) as reported by such exchange or stock market system or such other source as the Committee deems reliable; provided, however, the Committee may elect to use, subject to applicable requirements of the Code and Treasury Regulations, the average closing price over a designated number of up to thirty (30) consecutive days to determine the Fair Market Value if the daily volume of trading in the Company Stock is not, in the sole discretion of the Committee, sufficient to be a reliable indicator of Fair Market Value.

If the Company Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or quoted on any established stock market system, its Fair Market Value shall be the closing price for such stock on the Date of Grant as reported by such exchange or stock market system, or, if there are no trades on such date, the value shall be determined as of the last preceding day on which the Company Stock was traded.

"Fair Market Value" of Stock on a particular date means the closing sales price of Stock on the exchange on which such stock is traded on that date, or if no prices are reported on that date, on the last preceding date on which such prices of Stock are so reported. If Stock is not traded on such exchange at the time a determination of its Fair Market Value is required to be made hereunder, its Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be equal to the average between the closing bid and ask prices of Stock on the most recent date Stock was publicly traded. In the event Stock is not publicly traded at the time a determination of its Fair Market Value is required to be made hereunder, the determination of its Fair Market Value shall be made by the Committee in such manner as it deems appropriate.

Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, if, on such date, the Stock is listed or quoted on a national or regional securities exchange or quotation system, the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock shall be the closing price of a share of Stock as quoted on the national or regional securities exchange or quotation system constituting the primary market for the Stock, as reported in The Wall Street Journal or such other source as the Company deems reliable. If the relevant date does not fall on a day on which the Stock has traded on such securities exchange or quotation system, the date on which the Fair Market Value shall be established shall be the last day on which the Stock was so traded or quoted prior to the relevant date, or such other appropriate day as shall be determined by the Committee, in its discretion.

If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or traded on any established market, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock will be the closing sales price for such stock as quoted on such exchange or market (or the exchange or market with the greatest volume of trading in the Common Stock) on the date of determination, as reported in such source as the Board deems reliable. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, if there is no closing sales price for the Common Stock on the date of determination, then the Fair Market Value will be the closing sales price on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists.

If the Common Stock is listed on any established stock exchange or traded on any established market, the Fair Market Value will be the closing sales price for such stock as quoted on such exchange or market (or the exchange or market with the greatest volume of trading in the Common Stock) on the date of determination, as reported in a source the Board deems reliable.

Fair Market Value” means, as of any given date, the closing price per share of Common Stock on the principal exchange or over-the-counter market on which such shares are trading, if any, or as reported on any composite index which includes such principal exchange, or if no trade of the Common Stock shall have been reported for such date, the closing price quoted on such exchange or market for the immediately preceding date on which such shares were traded. The term “closing price” on any given day shall mean the last reported sales price on such day. If shares of Company Common Stock are not listed or admitted to trading on any exchange, over-the-counter market or any similar organization on any given day, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined by the Committee in good faith using any fair and reasonable means selected in its discretion and that complies with Section 409A of the Code.

For any date that is not a Trading Day, the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock for such date shall be determined by using the closing sale price for the immediately preceding Trading Day. Whenever possible, the determination of Fair Market Value by the Committee shall be based on the prices reported in the Wall Street Journal or as reported directly to the Company by a stock exchange or Nasdaq. Such determination shall be conclusive and binding on all persons.

Fair Market Value” means, on any date, the closing price of the Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange (or on such other recognized market or quotation system on which the trading prices of the Stock are principally traded or quoted at the relevant time) on such date. In the event that there are no Stock transactions reported on such exchange (or such other system) on such date, Fair Market Value means the closing price on the immediately preceding date on which Stock transactions were so reported. The Committee is authorized to adopt another Fair Market Value pricing method, provided such method is stated in the Agreement, and is in compliance with the fair market value pricing rules set forth in Code [Section 409A].

For all purposes under the Plan for which the value of Company Stock must be determined, the value of Company Stock will be its fair market value. If the Company Stock is listed on an established stock exchange, the fair market value per share of Company Stock on any particular date will be the closing price of the stock on such exchange as of the day designated by the Administrative Committee or determined under any procedure in general use under the Plan. If, for any reason, the fair market value per share of Company Stock cannot be ascertained or is unavailable for a particular date, the fair market value of such stock will be determined as of the nearest preceding date on which such fair market value can be ascertained pursuant to the terms hereof. In the case of a transaction between the Plan and a person described in Code [Section 4975(e)(2)], the value will be determined as of the date of the transaction; for all other purposes, the value will be determined as of the most recent Valuation Date.

If the Common Stock is at the time traded on a Stock Exchange, then the Fair Market Value shall be the closing selling price per share of Common Stock at the close of regular hours trading (i.e., before after-hours trading begins) on the date in question on the Stock Exchange serving as the primary market for the Common Stock, as such price is reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers (if primarily traded on the Nasdaq Global or Global Select Market) or as officially quoted in the composite tape of transactions on any other Stock Exchange on which the Common Stock is then primarily traded. If there is no closing selling price for the Common Stock on the date in question, then the Fair Market Value shall be the closing selling price on the last preceding date for which such quotation exists.
