Effect of Leaves of Absence. Unless otherwise required by law or a Participant’s Award Agreement, payment of the final value, if any, of a Performance Award held by a Participant who has taken in excess of thirty (30) days in unpaid leaves of absence during a Performance Period shall be prorated on the basis of the number of days of the Participant’s Service during the Performance Period during which the Participant was not on an unpaid leave of absence.

Leaves of Absence. If a Participant is on a leave of absence for a portion of a Performance Period, the Participant will be eligible to receive a Pro-Rated Award reflecting participation for the period during which he or she was actively employed and not any period when he or she was on leave.

If a Participant takes a leave of absence during the Performance Period for any reason, any Award earned by such Participant will be prorated based on the number of days such person participated in the Plan during the Performance Period, unless the Committee or the Chief Executive Officer, as the case may be, determines otherwise.
