Each Non-Employee Director will be entitled to receive an Annual Retainer in the amount determined from time to time by the Board. Until changed by resolution of the Board, the Annual Retainer will be $90,000. In addition, the Chair of each committee will receive:  $20,000 Chair of the Finance and Audit Committee  $20,000 Chair of the Compensation Committee

Until changed by resolution of the Board, the number of Shares subject to each Restricted Stock Unit grant for each Non-Employee Director will be equal to $135,000 divided by the Common Stock Fair Market Value on the date of the grant. The Restricted Stock Units may be subject to restrictions and conditions in the event a Non-Employee Director ceases to be a Non-Employee Director, in accordance with the terms of the Incentive Plan and the applicable award agreement. Any Non-Employee Director who first becomes a Non-Employee Director during a year will be entitled to a prorated Restricted Stock Grant for that year based on such Non-Employee Director’s days of service until the next annual meeting. 6. DEFERRAL OF ANNUAL RETAINER AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. (a) Deferral of Annual Retainer. Any Non-Employee Director may elect to defer the cash compensation payable to him or her under Section 5(a) for the Plan Year by completing a Deferral Election Form, pursuant to which he or she may elect to (i) defer all or a portion of the Annual Retainer to his or her Cash Account and/or (ii) exchange all or a portion of the Annual Retainer for an Award of Deferred Stock Units. For purposes of clause (i) above, each Installment Payment deferred to a Non-Employee Director’s Cash Account will be credited with interest, compounded monthly, from the date the cash would otherwise have been payable under Section 5(a) until the amount credited to his or her Cash Account is paid to the Non- Employee Director. The rate of interest credited during each quarter will be based on the annual rate on 30-year Treasury securities, as of the first business day of each quarter. For purposes of clause (ii) above, the number of Deferred Stock Units to be awarded will be determined by dividing the amount of the Installment Payment to be exchanged by the Common Stock Fair Market Value as of the date(s) on which the Installment Payment would otherwise have been paid. Deferred Stock Units will be issued upon the date on which the Cash Retainer would otherwise have been paid and credited to the Non-Employee Director’s DSU Account. (b) Deferral of Restricted Stock Units. Any Non-Employee Director may elect to defer settlement of the Restricted Stock Units payable to him or her under Section 5(b) for the Plan Year by completing a Deferral Election Form, pursuant to which he or she elects to

5 exchange all of his or her Restricted Stock Units for an Award of Deferred Stock Units. The Deferred Stock Units will be awarded at a rate of one Deferred Stock Unit for each Restricted Stock Unit and shall be issued and credited to the Non-Employee Director’s DSU Account on the date that the Restricted Stock Units would have otherwise settled in Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, a Non-Employee Director may not elect to defer Restricted Stock Units to his or her Cash Account. (c) Dividend Voting and Other Rights. Non-Employee Directors will have no rights of ownership in the Shares underlying the Deferred Stock Units, no right to current dividends, and no right to vote the Shares underlying the Deferred Stock Units until the date on which the Shares underlying the Deferred Stock Units are issued pursuant to the Deferral Election Form. However, from and after the grant date of the Deferred Stock Units and until the Deferred Stock Units are settled in Shares, on the date the Company pays a dividend (if any) to holders of Shares generally, Non-Employee Directors holding Deferred Stock Units will be credited with dividend equivalent additional Deferred Stock Units equal to the number obtained by dividing (i) the amount of the dividend the Non-Employee Director would have received had he or she owned a number of Shares equal to the number of Deferred Stock Units then credited to his or her DSU Account by (ii) the Common Stock Fair Market Value on the day before the date of the dividend payment. These dividend equivalent Deferred Stock Units shall be credited to the Non-Employee Director’s DSU Account and paid to such Non-Employee Director only if, and at the same time as, the Shares for such underlying DSUs are distributed to such Non- Employee Director pursuant to the terms of this Plan. (d) Timing and Form of Distribution. The amount (or portion thereof, as applicable) in a Non-Employee Director’s Cash Account and/or DSU Account will be distributed, or will begin to be distributed, to him or her or, in the event of his or her death, to his or her Beneficiary, as soon as administratively possible, but in any event within thirty (30) days following the earliest of: (i) the date(s) specified by the Non-Employee Director in his or her Deferral Election Form(s); (ii) the Non-Employee Director’s Termination Date; and (iii) the date on which a Change in Control occurs. (e) Beneficiary. A Non-Employee Director may designate any person to whom payments are to be made if the Non-Employee Director dies before receiving payment of all amounts due hereunder. A Beneficiary Designation form becomes effective only after the signed form is filed with the Secretary of the Company while the Non-Employee Director is alive, and will cancel any prior Beneficiary Designation form. If the Non-Employee Director fails to designate a Beneficiary or if all designated Beneficiaries predecease the Non-Employee Director, the Non-Employee Director’s Beneficiary will be his or her estate. (f) Timing of Remitting a Deferral Election Form. Any Deferral Election Form remitted to the Company by a Non-Employee Director pursuant to this Plan shall be due by December 31 of the year prior to the Plan Year to which it will apply, or at such other time as may be provided by the Board and permissible under Section 409A of the Code without causing the imposition of any additional tax thereunder.

6 7. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION. The Board may at any time and from time to time, alter, amend, modify or terminate the Plan in whole or in part. 8. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) Indemnification. Each person who is or has been a member of the Board will be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by that person in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which that person may be a party or in which that person may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by that person in a settlement approved by the Company, or paid by that person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against that person, provided he or she gives the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the action, suit or proceeding before that person undertakes to handle and defend it. The foregoing right of indemnification will not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which an individual may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company may have to indemnify him or her or hold him or her harmless. (b) Successors. All obligations of the Company under the Plan with respect to a given Plan Year will be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of the successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company, or a merger, consolidation, or otherwise. (c) Reservation of Rights. Nothing in this Plan or in any award agreement granted hereunder will be construed to limit in any way the Board’s right to remove a Non- Employee Director from the Board. (d) Source of Shares. The Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units that may be paid pursuant to the Plan shall be issued as restricted stock unit awards, other stock- based awards or cash-based awards under the Incentive Plan subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Incentive Plan, and only to the extent that Shares remain available for issuance under the Incentive Plan. The terms and conditions of the Incentive Plan are incorporated into and made a part of this Plan with respect to any Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units issued pursuant to this Plan and amounts credited to Cash Accounts, and any awards of Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units and amounts credited to Cash Accounts shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the provisions of the Incentive Plan. In the event of any inconsistency between the Incentive Plan and this Plan with respect to Restricted Stock Units, Deferred Stock Units or amounts credited to Cash Accounts, the terms of the Incentive Plan shall control. The Plan does not constitute a separate source of Shares for the grant of the Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units described herein. 9. LEGAL CONSTRUCTION. (a) Gender and Number. Except where otherwise indicated by the context, any masculine term used herein will also include the feminine; the plural will include the singular and the singular will include the plural.

7 (b) Severability. If any provision of the Plan is held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity will not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan will be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included. (c) Requirements of Law. The issuance of payments under the Plan will be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to any approvals required by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges. (d) Securities Law and Tax Law Compliance. (i) Insider Trading. To the extent any provision of the Plan or action by the Board would subject any Non-Employee Director to liability under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, it will be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board. (ii) Section 409A. This Plan is intended to comply with Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder, and will be administered and interpreted in accordance with such intent. If the Company determines that any provision of the Plan is or might be inconsistent with the requirements of Code Section 409A, it will attempt in good faith to make such changes to the Plan as may be necessary or appropriate to avoid any adverse tax consequences to a Non-Employee Director under Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Compensation Committee determines that the Non-Employee Director is a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)), then payments triggered by the Non-Employee Director’s Separation from Service will not be paid until six months after the Non-Employee Director’s Termination Date or until the Non-Employee Director’s earlier death. The foregoing six-month delay provision will not affect the timing of payments that would otherwise be paid more than six months after the Non-Employee Director’s Termination Date. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences of any Award to any Non-Employee Director and will not be liable to any Non-Employee Director for any adverse tax consequences in connection with any Award. Each Non-Employee Director is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on him or her, or in respect of any payment or benefit delivered in connection with this Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and the Company shall not have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Non-Employee Director harmless from any of such taxes or penalties. As a condition to accepting an Award under this Plan, each Non- Employee Director agrees to not make any claim against the Company, or any of its officers, employers, directors, subsidiaries, or Affiliates related to tax liabilities arising from any Award or other compensation from the Company. (e) Unfunded Status of the Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Non-Employee Director by the Company, nothing contained herein will give any rights to a Non-Employee Director that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company. (f) Governing Law. The Plan will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, determined without regard to its conflict of law rules. (g) Nontransferability. A Non-Employee Director’s Cash Account, DSU Account and any Restricted Stock Units or Deferred Stock Units granted hereunder may not be

8 sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, or pursuant to a domestic relations order (as defined in Code Section 414(p)). All rights with respect to Cash Accounts, DSU Accounts, Restricted Stock Units and Deferred Stock Units will be available during the Non-Employee Director’s lifetime only to the Non-Employee Director or the Non-Employee Director’s guardian or legal representative. The Board may, in its discretion, require a Non-Employee Director’s guardian or legal representative to supply it with evidence the Board deems necessary to establish the authority of the guardian or legal representative to act on behalf of the Non-Employee Director.
