3. Shares Subject to the
Plan
Subject to Section 9, the total
number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan is 27,000,000
and the maximum number of Shares for which ISOs may be granted is
20% of the total number of Shares which may be issued under the
Plan. For Awards granted prior to June 3, 2009, not more than
25% shall be in the form of Full Value Awards. With respect to
Awards granted on or after June 3, 2009, to the extent any
Shares are granted as Full Value Awards, each such Share shall
count as 2.05 Shares for purposes of the overall limit on Shares
available for further grants under the Plan. The Shares may
consist, in whole or in part, of unissued Shares or treasury
Shares. The actual issuance of Shares upon the exercise of an Award
or in consideration of the cancellation or termination of an Award
shall reduce the number of Shares available for grant under the
Plan (i) in the case of Awards granted on or after
June 3, 2009, with a reduction of 2.05 Shares for every Share
previously granted as a Full Value Award and a reduction of one
Share for every Share previously granted as an Award of Options or
Stock Appreciation Rights and (ii) in the case of Awards
granted prior to June 3, 2009, with a reduction of one Share
for every Share previously granted as an Award. In the event all or
any portion of an Award is terminated or lapses without the payment
of consideration, the number of Shares not issued that were
originally deducted for such Award pursuant to this Section 3
shall be restored and may again be used for Awards under the Plan.
In the event that Shares are retained or are otherwise not issued
by the Company in order to satisfy tax withholding obligations in
connection with Full Value Awards (i.e. Awards other than Stock
Options or Stock Appreciation Rights), the number of Shares so
retained or not issued that were originally deducted for such Award
pursuant to this Section 3 shall be restored and may again be used
for Awards under the Plan. Shares subject to an Award under the
Plan may not be available again for issuance under the Plan if such
Shares are retained or otherwise not issued by the Company in order
to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with Stock
Options or Stock Appreciation Rights.
4. Administration
The Plan shall be administered by
the Committee, which may delegate its duties and powers in whole or
in part to any subcommittee thereof consisting solely of at least
two individuals who are intended to qualify as “Non-Employee
Directors” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Act (or
any successor rule thereto), “independent directors”
within the meaning of The New York Stock Exchange’s listed
company rules and “outside directors” within the
meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor
section thereto). Additionally, the Committee may delegate the
authority to grant Awards under the Plan to any employee or group
of employees of the Company or an Affiliate; provided ,
however , that such delegation and grants are consistent
with applicable law and guidelines established by the Committee
from time to time. Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee,
be made under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for,
outstanding awards previously granted by a company acquired by the
Company or with which the Company and/or any of its Affiliates
combines. The number of Shares underlying such substitute awards
shall be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available
for Awards under the Plan. The Committee is authorized to interpret
the
3
Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules
and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any other
determinations that it deems necessary or desirable for the
administration of the Plan. The Committee may correct any defect or
supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in
the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or
desirable. Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and
administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall lie within
its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and
binding on all parties concerned (including, but not limited to,
Participants and their beneficiaries or successors). The Committee
shall have the full power and authority to establish the terms and
conditions of any Award consistent with the provisions of the Plan
and to waive any such terms and conditions at any time (including,
without limitation, accelerating or waiving any vesting
conditions). The Committee shall require payment of any amount it
may determine to be necessary for federal, state, local or other
taxes as a result of the exercise, grant or vesting of an Award.
The Committee shall not be required to issue any Award under the
Plan until such obligations described in the previous sentence have
been satisfied in full. In no event shall the Committee cancel any
outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right for the purpose of
reissuing such Option or Stock Appreciation Right to the
Participant at a lower exercise price nor shall the Committee
reduce the exercise price of an outstanding Option or Stock
Appreciation Right.
5. Limitations
No Award may be granted under the
Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but
