target for the applicable fiscal year of the Company relating to
the applicable Vesting Date (each such fiscal year, a “
Fiscal Year ”, and each such EBIT performance target,
an “ EBIT Target ”, all as set forth on Schedule

Agreement) for such subsequent Fiscal Year (any such Fiscal Year, a
“ Catch-up Year ”), then all installments of
Performance-Based Options that did not become vested in respect of
any Missed Year will nevertheless become Vested Options on the same
date that the installment of Performance-Based Options that

any subsequent Fiscal Years, equal to (x) 100% multiplied by
(y) a quotient, the numerator of which is the aggregate number
of Performance-Based Options that previously became Vested Options

and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of
Performance-Based Options that were eligible to become Vested
Options if all EBIT Targets were achieved prior to the Fiscal Year
during with the Change in Control occurs, shall become Vested
Options concurrently with consummation of such a Change of Control
(see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof); and
(E) in the event of a Special
Termination, all installments of unvested Performance-Based Options
that would have vested during the 12-month period immediately
following such Special Termination (the “ Special
Termination Vesting Period ”) in accordance with the
other provisions of this Section 4(b) if no such termination

Termination occurs in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii)(A), or
(y) the occurrence during the Special Termination Vesting
Period of a Return-Based Vesting Event, a Qualified Partial
Liquidity Event or a Change of Control that is not a Return-Based
Vesting Event, in accordance with Section 4(b)(ii)(B),
Section 4(b)(ii)(C), or Section 4(b)(ii)(D),
respectively) shall become Vested Options on the applicable Vesting
Date(s) that occur during the Special Termination Vesting Period
(see the attached Schedule 2 for an example hereof).
For purposes of
Section 4(b)(ii)(C) above, the then-unvested Performance-Based
Options shall become Vested Options in the manner set forth
therein, in the following order, to the extent applicable: first,
any then-unvested Performance-Based Options from any prior Missed
Years (beginning with the earliest Missed Year and each subsequent
Missed Year); second, the then-unvested Performance-Based Options
eligible for vesting based on EBIT performance for the Fiscal Year
in which the Qualified Partial
5
Liquidity Event occurs; and third, any
then-unvested Performance-Based Options eligible for vesting based
on EBIT performance for the Fiscal Year immediately subsequent to
the Fiscal Year in which the Qualified Partial Liquidity Event
occurs and each subsequent Fiscal Year.

provided above with respect to a Special Termination, upon a
Termination of Relationship for any reason, the unvested portion of
the Option ( i.e. , that portion which does not constitute
Vested Options) shall terminate and cease to be outstanding on the
date the Termination of Relationship occurs and shall no longer be
eligible to become Vested Options, provided, however, that if upon
the date the Termination of Relationship occurs, the Committee is
unable to determine if the EBIT Target for the Fiscal Year
immediately preceding the year in which the Termination of
Relationship occurs has been met, any unvested portion of the
Option that could vest based upon such determination shall not
terminate until such determination is made (and shall vest if the
applicable EBIT Target is achieved in accordance with
Section 4(6)(ii) above)).

Stockholders in respect of all Sponsor Investment and including, as
a return on each Sponsor Investment, any cash dividends, cash
distributions or cash sales by the Company or any Affiliate in
