combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities
of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase
Shares or other securities of the Company, or other similar
corporate transaction or event affects the Shares such that an

if any, of the Fair Market Value (as of a date
specified by the Committee) of the Shares subject to such Option or
SAR over the aggregate Exercise Price of such Option or SAR and

Price equal to, or in excess of, the Fair Market Value of a Share
subject to such Option or SAR without any payment or consideration
therefor.

Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted
under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for,
outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or any of its
Affiliates or a company acquired by the Company or any of its
Affiliates or with which the Company or any of its Affiliates
combines (“Substitute Awards”). The number of Shares
underlying any Substitute Awards shall be counted against the
aggregate number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan;
provided, however, that Substitute Awards issued in connection with
the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards
previously granted by an entity that is acquired by the Company or
any of its Affiliates or with which the Company or any of its
Affiliates combines shall not be counted against the aggregate
number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan; provided
