Adjustments. If there is any change in the number or kind of shares of Company Stock outstanding by reason of # a stock dividend, spinoff, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split or combination or exchange of shares, # a merger, reorganization or consolidation, # a reclassification or change in par value, or # any other extraordinary or unusual event affecting the outstanding Company Stock as a class without the Company’s receipt of consideration, or if the value of outstanding shares of Company Stock is substantially reduced as a result of a spinoff or the Company’s payment of an extraordinary dividend or distribution, the maximum number of shares of Company Stock available for issuance under the Plan, the kind and number of shares covered by outstanding Grants, the kind and number of shares issued and to be issued under the Plan, and the price per share or the applicable market value of such Grants may be equitably adjusted by the Committee, in such a manner as the Committee deems appropriate, to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of, or change in the kind or value of, the issued shares of Company Stock to preclude, to the extent practicable, the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under the Plan and such outstanding Grants; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from such adjustment shall be eliminated. In addition, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined below in Section 9) of the Company, the provisions of Section 10 of the Plan shall apply. Any adjustments to outstanding Grants shall be consistent with Section 409A or 424 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Code”), to the extent applicable. Any adjustments determined by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Adjustment of Shares. In the event of a stock dividend, stock split or combination of shares, recapitalization, merger in which the Company is the surviving corporation, reorganization, reincorporation, consolidation, special dividend, spin-off or other change in the Company’s capital stock without the receipt of consideration by the Company (including, but not limited to, the creation or issuance to shareholders generally of rights, options or warrants for the purchase of common stock or preferred stock of the Company), or any other event shall occur (which event, in the judgment of the Board or Committee, necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan), the number and kind of shares of stock or securities of the Company to be subject to the Plan and to Awards then outstanding or to be granted thereunder, the aggregate and individual maximum number of shares or securities which may be delivered under the Plan pursuant to Section 4, and the exercise price and other terms and relevant provisions of Awards shall be appropriately adjusted by the Committee, whose determination shall be binding on all persons; provided, however, that no adjustment of an outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right may be made that would create a deferral of income or a modification, extension or renewal of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right under Code [Section 409A] except as permitted thereby. If the adjustment would produce fractional shares with respect to any Incentive Award, Restricted Award or unexercised Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee may adjust appropriately the number of shares covered by the Award so as to eliminate the fractional shares.

Adjustments. In the event of any change in corporate structure affecting outstanding Shares or the value thereof, including any dividend or distribution (whether in cash, Shares or other property), stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, recapitalization, merger, reorganization, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares or similar transaction, such adjustments and other substitutions shall be made to the Plan and to outstanding Awards as the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems equitable or appropriate, including such adjustments in # the limitations set forth in Section 5.1, including the maximum aggregate number, class and kind of securities that may be delivered under the Plan, and # the number, class, kind and Exercise Price of securities subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan (including, if the Committee deems appropriate, the full or partial substitution of similar options to purchase the shares of, or other awards denominated in the shares of, another company).

Adjustments. In the event of any change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock, by reason of a stock dividend or distribution, stock split, recapitalization, merger, reorganization, consolidation, split‑up, spin‑ off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or other change in corporate structure affecting the Common Stock, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments in # the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock # reserved for issuance under the Plan, # for which grants or awards may be made to an individual grantee, and # covered by outstanding awards and grants denominated in shares or units of Common Stock, # the exercise or other applicable price related to outstanding awards or grants, and # the appropriate Fair Market Value and other price determinations relevant to outstanding awards or grants and shall make such other adjustments not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 22 as may be equitable under the circumstances; provided, that the number of shares subject to any award or grant always shall be a whole number.

In order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants under the Plan as a result of any stock dividend, recapitalization, forward stock split or reverse stock split, reorganization, division, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase or share exchange, extraordinary or unusual cash distribution or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects the Common Stock, the Committee shall adjust # the number and kind of shares of Common Stock which may thereafter be issued in connection with Awards or Prior Plan Awards, # the number and kind of shares of Common Stock issuable in respect of outstanding Awards or Prior Plan Awards, # the aggregate number and kind of shares of Common Stock available under the Plan, and # the exercise or grant price relating to any Award or Prior Plan Award. Any such adjustment shall be made in an equitable manner which reflects the effect of such transaction or event. It is provided, however, that in the case of any such transaction or event, the Committee may make any additional adjustments to the items in [(i) through (iv) above] which it deems appropriate in the circumstances, or make provision for a cash payment with respect to any outstanding Award or Prior Plan Award; and it is provided, further, that no adjustment shall be made under this Section that would cause the Plan to violate Section 422 of the Code with respect to Incentive Stock Options.

If the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares or kind of capital stock or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off, combination of stock, exchange of stock, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares of Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, the number and kinds of shares of stock for which grants of Options and other Awards may be made under the Plan, including the Share Limit, shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Committee. In addition, the number and kind of shares of stock for which Awards are outstanding shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Committee so that the proportionate interest of the Grantee therein immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options shall not change the aggregate Option Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of such outstanding Options but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the per share Option Price. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as an increase in shares effected without receipt of consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any distribution to the Company’s shareholders of securities of any other entity or other assets (including an extraordinary dividend, but excluding a non-extraordinary dividend, declared and paid by the Company) without receipt of consideration by the Company, the Committee shall, in such manner as it deems appropriate, adjust # the number and kind of shares of stock subject to outstanding Awards and/or # the aggregate and per share Option Price of outstanding Options as required to reflect such distribution.

In the event, at any time or from time to time, a stock dividend, stock split, spin‑off, combination or exchange of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, distribution to shareholders other than a normal cash dividend, or other change in the Company’s corporate or capital structure results in # the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or any securities exchanged therefor or received in their place, being exchanged for a different number or kind of securities of the Company or of any other company or # new, different or additional securities of the Company or of any other company being received by the holders of shares of Common Stock, then the Committee shall make proportional adjustments in # the maximum number and kind of securities available for issuance under the Plan; # the aggregate maximum number and kind of securities that may be issued with respect to any Purchase Period; and # the number and kind of securities that are subject to any outstanding Option and the per share price of such securities. The determination by the Committee as to the terms of any of the foregoing adjustments shall be conclusive and binding.

In the event of any equity restructuring that causes the per Share value of Shares to change, such as a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spinoff, rights offering, recapitalization through an extraordinary cash dividend or any similar event, the Committee shall make such adjustments as it deems equitable and appropriate to # the aggregate number and kind of shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance under the Plan, # the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to outstanding Awards and the terms of such Awards, # the Exercise Price of outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights and # any maximum limitations prescribed by the Plan with respect to certain types of Awards or the grants to individuals of certain types of Awards. In the event of any other change in corporate capitalization, including a merger, consolidation, reorganization or partial or complete liquidation of the Company, such equitable adjustments described in the foregoing sentence may be made as determined to be appropriate and equitable by the Committee (or, if the Company is not the surviving corporation in any such transaction, the board of directors of the surviving corporation) to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of Participants. No adjustment shall be made pursuant to this [Section 4.3(a)] in connection with the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company. The Committee shall determine the amount of the adjustment to be made in each case under this [Section 4.3(a)]; provided, in each case, that with respect to Awards of Incentive Stock Options intended to continue to qualify as Incentive Stock Options after such adjustment, no such adjustment shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment would cause the Incentive Stock Option to fail to continue to qualify under Code [Section 424(a)].

Changes in Stock. Subject to Section 3(d) hereof, if, as a result of any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock, the outstanding shares of Stock are increased or decreased or are exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company, or additional shares or new or different shares or other securities of the Company or other non-cash assets are distributed with respect to such shares of Stock or other securities, or, if, as a result of any merger or consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the outstanding shares of Stock are converted into or exchanged for securities of the Company or any successor entity (or a parent or subsidiary thereof), the Administrator shall make an appropriate or proportionate adjustment in # the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, including the maximum number of shares that may be issued in the form of Incentive Stock Options, # the number of Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights that can be granted to any one individual grantee and the maximum number of shares that may be granted under a Performance-Based Award, # the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to any then outstanding Awards under the Plan, # the repurchase price, if any, per share subject to each outstanding Restricted Stock Award, and # the exercise price for each share subject to any then outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights under the Plan, without changing the aggregate exercise price (i.e., the exercise price multiplied by the number of Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights) as to which such Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights remain exercisable. The Administrator shall also make equitable or proportionate adjustments in the number of shares subject to outstanding Awards and the exercise price and the terms of outstanding Awards to take into consideration cash dividends paid other than in the ordinary course or any other extraordinary corporate event. The adjustment by the Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares of Stock shall be issued under the Plan resulting from any such adjustment, but the Administrator in its discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional shares.

Adjustments. In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, dividend or distribution (whether in cash, shares or other property, other than a regular cash dividend), stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or similar transaction or other change in corporate structure affecting the Shares or the value thereof, such adjustments and other substitutions shall be made to the Plan and to Awards as the Committee deems equitable or appropriate taking into consideration the accounting and tax consequences, including such adjustments in the aggregate number, class and kind of securities that may be delivered under the Plan and pursuant to Section 3.3, the maximum number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options and, in the aggregate or to any one Participant, in the number, class, kind and option or exercise price of securities subject to outstanding Awards granted under the Plan (including, if the Committee deems appropriate, the substitution of similar options to purchase the shares of, or other awards denominated in the shares of, another company) as the Committee may determine to be appropriate in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the number of Shares subject to any Award shall always be a whole number.

In the event that # the outstanding Shares are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of Shares or other stock or securities or other equity interests of the Company or another corporation or entity, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, substitution or other similar corporate event or transaction or # there is an extraordinary dividend or distribution by the Company in respect of its Shares or other capital stock or securities convertible into capital stock in cash, securities or other property (any event described in (a) or (b), an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee shall determine the appropriate adjustments to # the maximum number and kind of shares of stock or other securities or other equity interests as to which Awards may be granted under the Plan, # the maximum number and class of Shares or other stock or securities that may be issued upon exercise of Incentive Stock Options, # the number and kind of Shares or other securities covered by any or all outstanding Awards that have been granted under the Plan, # the Option Price of outstanding Options and the Base Price of outstanding Stock Appreciation Rights, and # the Performance Objectives applicable to outstanding Performance Awards.
