voting power of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, any corporation which directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of 100% of the Company Voting Securities) eligible to elect directors of
such corporation is represented by shares that were Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination (either by remaining outstanding or being converted), and such voting power is in substantially the same proportion as the
voting power of such Company Voting Securities immediately prior to the Business Combination, (b)&nbsp;no person (other than any holding company resulting from such Business Combination, any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the
Company (or the corporation resulting from such Business Combination)) immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the total voting power of the
outstanding voting securities eligible to elect directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination, and (c)&nbsp;at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business

substantially perform his or her duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from his incapacity due to physical or mental illness), or (b)&nbsp;the willful engaging by the Employee in conduct which is demonstrably and materially
injurious to the Company or its affiliates. &#147;Good Reason&#148; shall mean with respect to any other Employee, the occurrence of any of the following in the absence of the Employee&#146;s written consent: (i)&nbsp;any material and adverse change
in the Employee&#146;s position or authority with the Company as in effect immediately before a Change in Control, other than an isolated and insubstantial action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company within 30 days after
receipt of notice thereof given by the Employee; (ii)&nbsp;the transfer of the Employee&#146;s primary work site to a new primary work site that is more than 50 miles from the Employee&#146;s primary work site in effect immediately before a Change
in Control; or (iii)&nbsp;a diminution of the Employee&#146;s base salary in effect immediately before a Change in Control by more than 10%, unless such diminution applies to all similarly situated employees, provided that (x)&nbsp;if the Employee
does not deliver to the Company a written notice of termination within 60 days after the Employee has knowledge that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred, the event will no longer constitute Good Reason and (y)&nbsp;the Employee must give

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Employee acknowledges that employment with the Company will bring Employee into close contact with many confidential affairs of the Company and its affiliates,
including without limitation information about costs, profits, customers, markets, sales, products, key personnel, policies, operational methods, trade secrets and other business affairs and methods and other information not readily available to the
public, and plans for further development (&#147;Confidential Information&#148;). Accordingly, Employee covenants and agrees that Employee will deliver promptly upon termination of employment, or at any other time the Company may request, all
Confidential Information in the form of memoranda, notes, records, reports and any other documents or media (and all copies thereof) relating to the Company&#146;s business which you may then possess or have under Employee&#146;s control. In
addition, for as long as such information remains sensitive and confidential in nature, and is not made public (other than as a result of your action or inaction, direct or indirect), Employee will hold in strictest confidence all matters of the
Company or any of its affiliates that are not otherwise in the public domain and will not, directly or indirectly, disclose or otherwise communicate them to anyone outside of the Company, download or otherwise transfer or transmit them without
authorization or in violation of Company&#146;s policies, or use them for Employee&#146;s personal uses or otherwise, either during or after the period of your employment with the Company or its affiliates. </P>

trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. An Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable
under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. An Employee who files a lawsuit for retaliation
by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the Employee and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the Employee files any document containing the trade secret
under seal; and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>No Dividend Equivalents </B></P>

Stock the record date for which occurs on or after the Grant Date (as specified in Schedule&nbsp;I), the Employee shall not be entitled to receive on the Vesting Date an amount in cash or stock equal to such regular dividend payment as would have
been made in respect of the shares of the Company&#146;s Common Stock underlying the RSU not yet delivered. </P>

for the Northern District of New York, if and to the extent that it shall have subject matter jurisdiction over any claims) shall have exclusive jurisdiction (and shall be the exclusive forum) in the event of any claim or dispute that the Employee
