Adjustments

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 8.1(o) of the Plan and in addition thereto, if in any transaction described in Section 8.1(o)(ii) or (iii) of the Plan (a “Transaction”) the successor company (or parent or subsidiary of the successor company) does not agree to assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock, the Vesting Dates, unless reasonably determined otherwise by the Board, shall be accelerated so that any unvested Restricted Stock shall be immediately vested in full as of the date that is ten (10) days prior to the effective date of the Transaction, and the Committee shall notify the Participant of such vesting. If the successor company (or parent or subsidiary of the successor company) agrees to assume or substitute for the Restricted Stock and Participant’s employment or service relationship with the successor company is terminated by the successor company without “Cause” within one (1) year of the closing of such Transaction, the Vesting Dates shall be accelerated so that any unvested portion of the substituted Restricted Stock shall be immediately vested in full as of the date of such termination without Cause.

The transfer of Restricted Stock shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the Plan and the Participant hereby agrees to sign any and all documents required by any applicable law and/or by the Company’s Articles of Association or Bylaws and any shareholders’ agreement to which the holders of Common Stock of the Company are bound.
