For purposes hereof, # a Participant shall not be deemed to have received a benefit of ownership with respect to an Award by the exercise of voting rights or the accumulation of dividends, other distributions or Dividend Equivalents which are not realized due to the expiration, forfeiture or termination of all or a portion of the related Award without delivery of such amounts to the Participant, and # a Participant shall be deemed to have received a benefit of ownership with respect to any shares of Stock withheld to pay an Option Exercise Price or strike price/base value or to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligations in connection with an exercise, vesting or distribution of all or any portion of an Award. The number of shares of Stock available for grant under the Plan shall not be reduced by shares subject to Awards granted upon the assumption of or in substitution for awards granted by a business or entity that is merged into or acquired by (or whose assets are acquired by) the Company.

Additional Shares. This paragraph # applies to all Awards granted under the Plan, including Awards granted prior to the Restatement Effective Date. If Restricted Shares are forfeited, then such Shares shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. If Stock Units, Options or SARs are forfeited, cancelled or terminate for any reason before being exercised or settled, or an Award is settled in cash without the delivery of Shares to the holder, then any Shares subject to the Award shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Only the number of Shares (if any) actually issued in settlement of Awards (and not forfeited) shall reduce the number available in Section 5(a) and the balance shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Any Shares withheld to satisfy the purchase price or Exercise Price or tax withholding obligation pursuant to any Award shall again become available for Awards under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5(b), Shares that have actually been issued shall not again become available for Awards under the Plan, except for Shares that are forfeited or do not become vested.

Awards Not Exercised; Effect of Receipt of Shares. If any outstanding Award or portion thereof, expires, or is terminated, canceled or forfeited, the Shares that would otherwise be issuable or released from restrictions with respect to the unexercised or non-Vested portion of such expired, terminated, canceled or forfeited Award shall be available for subsequent Awards under this Plan. If the Exercise Price of an Award is paid in Shares, or if Shares are withheld by the Company to cover a Participant’s tax obligations with respect to an Award pursuant to Section 15.1 or 15.2 of the Plan, the Shares received by the Company in connection therewith shall not be added to the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued under Section 3.1. Where Stock Appreciation Rights are settled by delivery of Shares, the actual number of Shares delivered to the Participant shall be counted against the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued under Section 3.1.

Shares covered by an Award granted under the Plan shall not be counted as used unless and until they are actually issued and delivered to a Participant and, therefore, the Aggregate Share Limit as of a given date shall not be reduced by any Shares relating to prior awards that have expired or have been forfeited or cancelled. If the Company pays the benefit provided by any Award granted under the Plan to the respective Participant in cash, any Shares that were covered by such Award will be available for issue or transfer hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

Cancellation of Performance Awards. On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all unearned or unvested Performance Awards will be forfeited to the Company, and again will be available for grant under the Plan.
