The vesting and other terms of any such assumed or substitute award shall be substantially the same as the vesting and other terms and conditions of the original Incentive Award, provided that (a) if the assumed or substituted award is a Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of shares and exercise/base price shall be adjusted in accordance with the principles set forth in Sections 1.424-1(a)(5) and 1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D) of the Treasury regulations, and (b) if the assumed or substituted Incentive Award is not a Stock Option or a Stock Appreciation Right, the number of shares covered by the assumed or substitute Award will be based upon the Change in Control transaction value of the Company&#39;s outstanding shares of Common Stock. If the original Incentive Award is subject to the satisfaction of any performance conditions, then, unless the Committee determines otherwise, such performance conditions shall be deemed to have been satisfied at the target performance level for purposes of determining the extent to which the Incentive Award is earned. If, within one year following a Change in Control, a Participant&#39;s employment or other service terminates due to death or Disability or is terminated by the Company or a successor or acquiring company (or any of its or their Affiliates) without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, then any outstanding assumed or substitute awards held by such terminated Participant shall immediately be fully vested, and any outstanding assumed or substitute Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will remain outstanding for at least 180 days after such termination of employment (or, if earlier, until the expiration of their original stated terms.) </FONT></P>

Each such Incentive Award shall be cancelled immediately prior to the effective time of the Change in Control in exchange for an amount equal to the per share consideration received by the holders of outstanding shares in the Change in Control transaction, reduced in the case of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Rights by the exercise or base price for such shares. No consideration will be payable in respect of the cancellation of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right with an exercise or base price per share that is equal to or greater than the value of the Change in Control transaction consideration per share. The amount payable with respect to the cancellation of an outstanding Incentive Award pursuant to this section will be paid in cash, unless the parties to the Change in Control agree that some or all of such amount will be payable in the form of freely tradable shares of common stock of the successor of acquiring company (or a parent company thereof). </FONT></P>
