7.Construction of Agreement/Severability.

8.Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party hereto upon any breach or default of any party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such party nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any modification, waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provision or condition of this Agreement, shall be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, representations, warranties, covenants or undertakings with respect to the subject matter hereof other than those expressly set forth herein or in the Plan. This Agreement and the Plan supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement are independent of any other restrictive covenants to which the Participant is subject in favor of GBT, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, and this Agreement shall not supersede (or be superseded by) any such other restrictive covenants to which the Participant is subject in favor of GBT, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates.

10.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

11.Governing Law; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6(j), this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the domestic substantive laws of the State of New York, without regard to the provisions governing choice or conflict of laws or rules that would cause the application of the domestic

substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. The parties agree that any dispute relating to this Agreement, the Award or the Plan shall be resolved in accordance with Sections 5.7 and 5.8 of the Plan (including, without limitation, the venue specified therein and the WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL provision thereof).

12.Effect on Employment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to the continuation of the Participant’s Employment or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates, subject to the terms of any separate Employment Agreement with the Participant to the contrary, at any time to terminate such Employment or to decrease the compensation of the Participant.

13.Acknowledgments. The Participant hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan. The Participant hereby acknowledges that all decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Committee in respect of the Plan, this Agreement and the Award shall be final, binding and conclusive.

14.Special Compensation. The grant of the Award under the Plan is a special one-time, discretionary grant to the Participant and there is no expectation that any future Award will be granted to the Participant, nor does the Participant have any entitlement to any such Award.  The Award is not part of the Participant’s regular wages, salary or compensation and shall not be pensionable, nor shall the Award be included in any severance, termination or pay in lieu of notice obligation or calculation to the Participant.
