ARTICLE III
Administration
3.1 The
Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which shall have all powers necessary or desirable for such administration. The express grant in the Plan of any specific power to the Committee shall not be construed as limiting any
power or authority of the Committee. In addition to any other powers and subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the following specific powers: (i) to determine the terms and conditions upon which the Awards may be made
and exercised; (ii) to determine all terms and provisions of each Agreement, which need not be identical; (iii) to construe and interpret the Agreements and the Plan; (iv) to establish, amend, or waive rules or regulations for the
Plan’s administration; (v) to accelerate the exercisability of any Award or the termination of any Period of Restriction or other restrictions imposed under the Plan; and (vi) to make all other determinations and take all other
actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.
The Chairman of the Committee and such other directors and officers of
the Company as shall be designated by the Committee are hereby authorized to execute Agreements on behalf of the Company and to cause them to be delivered to the recipients of Awards.
For purposes of determining the applicability of Section 422 of the Code (relating to Incentive Stock Options), or in the event that the
terms of any Award provide that it may be exercised only during employment or service or within a specified period of time after termination of employment or service, the Committee may decide to what extent leaves of absence for governmental or
military service, illness, temporary disability, or other reasons shall not be deemed interruptions of employment or service or continuous employment or service.
Subject to limitations under applicable law, the Committee is authorized in its discretion to issue Awards and/or accept notices, elections,
consents, and/or other forms or communications by Participants by electronic or similar means, including, without limitation, transmissions through e-mail, voice mail, recorded messages on electronic telephone
systems, and other permissible methods, on such basis and for such purposes as it determines from time to time.
A majority of the entire
Committee shall constitute a quorum and the action of a majority of the members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present (in person or as otherwise permitted by applicable law), or acts approved in writing by a majority of the Committee
without a meeting, shall be deemed the action of the Committee.
- 5 -
3.2 Selection of Participants. Except where required in the case of Stock Payment Awards
in Article XI, the Committee shall have the authority to grant Awards under the Plan, from time to time, to such Employees and/or Non-Employee Directors as may be selected by it to be Participants. Each Award
shall be evidenced by an Agreement.
3.3 Decisions Binding. All determinations and decisions made by the Board or the Committee
pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding.
3.4 Requirements of Rule 16b-3 and Section 162(m) of the Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Board or the Committee may impose such conditions on any Award, and amend the Plan in any such respects, as may be
required to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3, as amended (or any successor or similar rule), under the Exchange Act.
Any provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, and except to the extent that the Committee determines otherwise:
(i) transactions by and with respect to officers and directors of the Company who are subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (hereafter, “Section 16 Persons”) shall comply with any applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3;
(ii) transactions with respect to persons whose remuneration is subject to the provisions of Section 162(m) of the Code shall conform to the requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code; and (iii) every provision of the Plan
shall be administered, interpreted, and construed to carry out the foregoing provisions of this sentence.
Notwithstanding any provision
of the Plan to the contrary, the Plan is intended to give the Committee the authority to grant Awards that qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code as well as Awards that do not so qualify. Every
provision of the Plan shall be administered, interpreted, and construed to carry out such intention, and any provision that cannot be so administered, interpreted, and construed shall to that extent be disregarded; and any provision of the Plan that
would prevent an Award that the Committee intends to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code from so qualifying shall be administered, interpreted, and construed to carry out such intention, and any
provision that cannot be so administered, interpreted, and construed shall to that extent be disregarded.
3.5 Indemnification of the
Committee. In addition to such other rights of indemnification as they may have as directors or as members of the Committee, the members of the Committee shall be indemnified by the Company against reasonable expenses, including attorneys’
fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit, or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, to which they or any of them may be a party by reason of any action taken or failure to act under or
in connection with the Plan or any Award granted or made hereunder, and against all amounts reasonably paid by them in settlement thereof or paid by them in satisfaction of a judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding, if such members acted in
good faith and in a manner that they believed to be in, and not opposed to, the best interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
ARTICLE IV
Stock
Subject to the Plan
4.1 Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.3 herein, the maximum aggregate
number of Shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards made under the Plan shall not exceed the sum of (i) 700,000 reduced by that number of Shares represented by outstanding awards under the FNB Corporation 2000 Incentive Stock Plan on the
Effective Date of this Plan and (ii) that number of Shares represented by awards under the FNB Corporation 2000 Incentive Stock Plan that are outstanding on, and
- 6 -
that expire or are otherwise terminated or forfeited at any time after, the Effective Date. No more than one-half of the aggregate number of such Shares shall be issued in connection with
Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Stock Awards, and Stock Payment Awards. Except as provided in Section 4.2 herein, only Shares actually issued in connection with the exercise of, or as other payment for, Awards under the Plan shall
reduce the number of Shares available for future Awards under the Plan.
4.2 Lapsed Awards or Forfeited Shares; Shares Used as Payment
of Exercise Price or for Taxes.
4.2(a) If any Award granted under the Plan terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason other than
by virtue of exercise of the Award, or if Shares issued pursuant to Awards are forfeited, any Stock subject to such Award again shall be available for the grant of an Award under the Plan.
4.2(b) In the event a Participant pays the Option Price for Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option with previously acquired Shares, the
number of Shares available for future Awards under the Plan shall be reduced only by the net number of new Shares issued upon the exercise of the Option. In addition, in determining the number of shares of Stock available for Awards, if Stock has
been delivered or exchanged by, or withheld from, a Participant as full or partial payment to the Company for payment of withholding taxes, or if the number of shares of Stock otherwise deliverable by the Company has been reduced for payment of
withholding taxes, the number of shares of Stock exchanged by or withheld from a Participant as payment in connection with the withholding tax or so reduced by the Company shall again be available for the grant of an Award under the Plan.
4.3 Capital Adjustments. The number and class of Shares subject to each outstanding Award, the Option Price, and the annual limits on
and the aggregate number and class of Shares for which Awards thereafter may be made shall be proportionately, equitably, and appropriately adjusted in such manner as the Committee shall determine in order to retain the economic value or opportunity
to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or similar event in which the number or class of Shares is changed without the receipt or payment
of consideration by the Company. Where an Award being adjusted is an ISO or is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the adjustment shall also be effected so as to comply with Section 424(a) of the Code and not to constitute a modification
within the meaning of Section 424(h) or 409A, as applicable, of the Code.
ARTICLE V
Eligibility
Persons
eligible to participate in the Plan and receive Awards are all Employees and all Non-Employee Directors who, in the opinion of the Committee, merit becoming Participants.

Options
6.1 Grant of Options. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, Options may be granted to Employees and Non-Employee Directors at any time and from time to time as shall be determined by the Committee. The Committee shall have complete discretion in determining the number of Shares subject to Options granted to each
Participant, provided, however, that (i) no Participant may be granted Options in any calendar year for more than 40,000 Shares, (ii) the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the
- 7 -
time the Award is made) of Shares with respect to which any Participant may first exercise ISOs granted under the Plan during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such amount as shall be
specified in Section 422 of the Code and rules and regulations thereunder, (iii) no ISO may be granted on or following the tenth anniversary of the earlier of the Effective Date of the Plan or the date of shareholder approval of the Plan,
and (iv) no ISO may be granted to a Non-Employee Director.
6.2 Option Agreement. Each
Option grant shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the type of Option granted; the Option Price (as defined in Section 6.3 herein); the duration of the Option; the number of Shares to which the Option pertains; any conditions
imposed upon the exercisability of Options in the event of retirement, death, disability, or other termination of employment or service; and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. The Agreement shall specify whether the Option is
intended to be an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, or a Non-Qualified Stock Option not intended to be an Incentive Stock Option within the meaning of Section 422
of the Code, provided, however, that, if an Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option but fails to be such for any reason, it shall continue in full force and effect as a Non-Qualified Stock Option.
6.3 Option Price. The exercise price per Share of Stock covered by an Option (“Option Price”) shall be determined by the
Committee subject to the following limitations. The Option Price shall not be less than 100 percent of the Fair Market Value of such Stock on the Grant Date. In addition, in order for an Option to be an ISO where an Option is granted to an Employee
who, at the time of grant, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the Option must have an Option Price that is at
least equal to 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date.
6.4 Duration of Options. Each Option shall
expire at such time as the Committee shall determine at the time of grant, provided, however, that no ISO shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from its Award Date. In addition, in order for an Option to be an ISO where an Option is
granted to an Employee who, at the time of grant, owns (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) stock possessing more than 10 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the Option must not be
exercisable after the expiration of five years from its Award Date.
6.5 Exercisability. Options granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall determine, which need not be the same for all Participants.
6.6 Method of Exercise. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice to the Company in the form prescribed by the
Committee setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the Shares. The Option Price shall be payable to the Company in full either in cash, by delivery of Shares of Stock
valued at Fair Market Value at the time of exercise, by delivery of a promissory note (in the Committee’s discretion and subject to restrictions and prohibitions of applicable law) or by a combination of the foregoing.
To the extent permitted under the applicable laws and regulations, at the request of the Participant and with the consent of the Committee,
the Company agrees to cooperate in a “cashless exercise” of an Option. The cashless exercise shall be effected by the Participant delivering to a securities broker instructions to exercise all or part of the Option, including instructions
to sell a sufficient number of shares of Stock to cover the costs and expenses associated therewith.
As soon as practicable, after
receipt of written notice and payment of the Option Price and completion of payment of (or an arrangement satisfactory to the Company for the Participant to pay) any
- 8 -
tax withholding required in connection with the Option exercise, the Company shall cause the appropriate number of Shares to be issued in the Participant’s name, which issuance shall be
effected in book entry or electronic form, provided that issuance and delivery in certificated form shall occur if the Participant so requests or the Committee so directs.
6.7 Restrictions on Stock Transferability. The Committee shall impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the
exercise of an Option under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable Federal securities law, under any stock exchange upon which such Shares are then listed, and under any blue sky or state
securities laws applicable to such Shares. In the event the Committee so provides in an Agreement pertaining to an Option, Stock delivered on exercise of the Option may be designated as Restricted Stock or Stock subject to a buyback right by the
Company in the amount of, or based on, the Option Price therefor or otherwise in the event the Participant does not complete a specified service period after exercise.

Appreciation Rights
7.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, Stock
Appreciation Rights may be granted to Employees and Non-Employee Directors at the discretion of the Committee, provided, however, that no Participant may be granted more than 40,000 SARs in any calendar year.
7.2 SAR Agreement. Each SAR grant shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the Base Value (as defined in
Section 7.5); the duration of the SAR; the number of Shares to which the SAR pertains; any conditions imposed upon the exercisability of the SAR in the event of retirement, death, disability, or other termination of employment or service; and
such other provisions as the Committee shall determine consistent with the Plan. SARs granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such times and be subject to such restrictions and conditions as the Committee shall determine, which need not be
the same for all Participants.
7.3 Exercise of SARs. SARs may be exercised with respect to all or part of the Shares upon
whatever terms and conditions the Committee, in its sole discretion, imposes upon such SARs. A SAR shall be exercised by delivery to the Committee of a notice of exercise in the form prescribed by the Committee.
7.4 Other Conditions Applicable to SARs. In no event shall the term of any SAR granted under the Plan exceed ten years from the Grant
Date. A SAR may be exercised only when the Fair Market Value of a Share exceeds the Base Value (as defined in Section 7.5).
7.5
Payment Upon Exercise of SARs. Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, upon the exercise of a SAR, the Participant is entitled to receive, without any payment to the Company (other than required tax withholding amounts), an amount (the
“SAR Value”) equal to the product of multiplying (i) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised by (ii) an amount equal to the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of exercise of the
SAR over (B) the “Base Value” of the SAR designated in the Agreement (which “Base Value” shall be the Fair Market Value per Share on the Award Date or any amount greater than such Fair Market Value stated as the Base Value
in the Agreement).
Payment of the SAR Value to the Participant shall be made (i) in Shares valued at the Fair Market Value on the
date of exercise in the case of an immediate payment after exercise, (ii) in cash, or (iii) in a combination thereof as determined by the Committee, either at the time of the Award or, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Agreement,
thereafter, and as provided in the Agreement.
- 9 -
To the extent required to satisfy the conditions of Rule
16b-3(e) under the Exchange Act, or any successor or similar rule, or as otherwise provided in the Agreement, the Committee shall have the sole discretion to consent to or disapprove the election of any
Participant to receive cash in full or partial settlement of a SAR. In cases where an election of settlement in cash must be consented to by the Committee, the Committee may consent to or disapprove such election at any time after such election, or
within such period for taking action as is specified in the election, and failure to give consent shall be disapproval. Consent may be given in whole or as to a portion of the SAR surrendered by the Participant. If the election to receive cash is
disapproved in whole or in part, the SAR shall be deemed to have been exercised for Shares, or, if so specified in the notice of exercise and election, not to have been exercised to the extent the election to receive cash is disapproved.
7.6 Restrictions on Stock Transferability. The Committee shall impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the
exercise of a SAR under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable Federal securities law, under any stock exchange upon which such Shares are then listed, and under any blue sky or state
securities laws applicable to such Shares. In the event the Committee so provides in an Agreement pertaining to a SAR, Stock delivered on exercise of the SAR may be designated as Restricted Stock in the event the Participant does not complete a
specified service period after exercise.

Restricted Stock
8.1
Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock under the Plan to such Employees and
Non-Employee Directors and in such amounts as it shall determine, provided, however, that no Participant may be granted more than 20,000 Shares of Restricted Stock in any calendar year. Participants receiving
Restricted Stock Awards are not required to pay the Company therefor (except for applicable tax withholding) other than the rendering of services. As determined by the Committee, Shares of Restricted Stock may be issued in book entry or electronic
form or in certificated form. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, custody of Shares of Restricted Stock in certificated form shall be retained by the Company until the termination of the Period of Restriction pertaining thereto.
8.2 Restricted Stock Agreement. Each Restricted Stock Award shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify the Period of
Restriction, the number of Shares of Restricted Stock granted, and the applicable restrictions (whether service-based restrictions, with or without performance acceleration, and/or performance-based restrictions) and such other provisions as the
Committee shall determine. If an Award of Restricted Stock is intended to be a performance-based compensation Award, the terms and conditions of such Award, including the Performance Goal(s) and Period of Restriction and, if different, performance
period, shall be set forth in an Agreement or in a subplan of the Plan, which is incorporated by reference into an Agreement, and the requirements to satisfy or achieve the Performance Goal(s) as so provided therein shall be considered to be
restrictions under the Plan.
8.3 Other Restrictions. The Committee may impose such other restrictions under applicable Federal or
state securities laws as it may deem advisable, and may legend the certificates representing Restricted Stock to give appropriate notice of such restrictions.
- 10 -
8.4 Certificate Legend. In addition to any legends placed on certificates pursuant to
Section 8.3 herein, each certificate representing Shares of Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan shall bear the following legend:
“The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of
law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the FNB Corporation 2006 Incentive Stock Plan, in the rules and administrative procedures adopted pursuant to such Plan, and in an associated Restricted Stock Agreement. A copy of the
Plan, such rules and procedures, and the applicable Restricted Stock Agreement may be obtained from the Secretary of FNB Corporation.”
8.5 Removal of Restrictions. Except as otherwise provided in this Article, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock
Award made under the Plan shall become freely transferable by the Participant after the last day of the Period of Restriction and, where applicable, after a determination of the satisfaction or achievement on any applicable Performance Goal(s) by
the Committee. Once the Shares are released from the restrictions, the legend required by Section 8.4 herein shall be removed and, unless and until the Participant requests in writing, or the Committee directs, issuance and delivery in
certificated form, the Shares of Stock may remain in book entry or electronic form.
8.6 Voting Rights. Unless otherwise provided
in the Agreement, during the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise voting rights with respect to those Shares.
8.7 Dividends and Other Distributions. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement (which may or may not provide for the accumulation
and payment of dividends and other distributions made in cash or property other than Shares until the Shares of Restricted Stock to which the dividends and other distributions relates vest), during the Period of Restriction, Participants entitled to
or holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions made in cash or property other than Shares with respect to those Shares of Restricted Stock. If any dividends or distributions
are paid in Shares, such Shares shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and the same rules for vesting, forfeiture, and custody as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were distributed.
8.8 Failure to Satisfy Performance Goal(s). In the event that the specified Performance Goal(s) are not satisfied within the time
period established by the Committee, the Shares of Restricted Stock that were awarded subject to the satisfaction of such Performance Goal(s) shall be automatically forfeited and returned to the Company.
ARTICLE IX
Restricted
Stock Units
9.1 Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time
and from time to time, may grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan (with one Restricted Stock Unit representing one Share) to such Employees and Non-Employee Directors and in such amounts as it shall
determine, provided, however, that no Participant may be granted more than 20,000 Restricted Stock Units in any calendar year. Participants receiving Restricted Stock Unit Awards are not required to pay the Company therefor (except for applicable
tax withholding) other than the rendering of services.
- 11 -
9.2 Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be evidenced
by an Agreement that shall specify the Period of Restriction, the number of Restricted Stock Units granted, and the applicable restrictions (whether service-based restrictions, with or without performance acceleration, and/or performance-based
restrictions) and such other provisions as the Committee shall determine. If a Restricted Stock Unit Award is intended to be a performance-based compensation Award, the terms and conditions of such Award, including the Performance Goal(s) and Period
of Restriction and, if different, performance period, shall be set forth in an Agreement or in a subplan of the Plan, which is incorporated by reference into an Agreement, and the requirements to satisfy or achieve the Performance Goal(s) as so
provided therein shall be considered to be restrictions under the Plan.
9.3 Dividends and Other Distributions. Unless otherwise
provided in the Agreement (which may or may not provide for the current payment, or for the accumulation subject to the same restrictions, vesting, forfeiture, and payment as the Restricted Stock Units to which they are attributable, of dividends
and other distributions made in cash or property other than Shares), during the Period of Restriction, Participants holding Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights to dividends and other distributions made in cash or property other than Shares
that would have been paid with respect to the Shares represented by those Restricted Stock Units if such Shares were outstanding. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, if any deemed dividends or other distributions would be paid in Shares,
such Shares shall be considered to increase the Participant’s Restricted Stock Units with respect to which they were declared based on one Share equaling one Restricted Stock Unit. In addition, unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, during
the Period of Restriction, any such deemed dividends and other distributions for which rights are provided but that are not paid currently shall be deemed converted to additional Restricted Stock Units based on the Fair Market Value of a Share on
the date of payment or distribution of the deemed dividend or distribution.
9.4 Payment after Lapse of Restrictions. Subject to
the provisions of the Agreement, upon the lapse of restrictions with respect to a Restricted Stock Unit, the Participant is entitled to receive, without any payment to the Company (other than required tax withholding amounts), an amount equal to the
product of multiplying (i) the number of Shares with respect to which the restrictions lapse by (ii) the Fair Market Value per Share on the date the restrictions lapse (such amount, the “RSU Value”).
The Agreement may provide for payment of the RSU Value at the time of vesting or, on an elective or
non-elective basis, for payment of the RSU Value at a later date, adjusted (if so provided in the Agreement) from the date of exercise based on an interest, dividend equivalent, earnings, or other basis
(including deemed investment of the RSU Value in Shares) set out in the Agreement (the “adjusted RSU Value”). The Committee is expressly authorized to grant Restricted Stock Units that are deferred compensation covered by Section 409A
of the Code, as well as Restricted Stock Units that are not deferred compensation covered by Section 409A of the Code.
Payment of
the RSU Value or adjusted RSU Value to the Participant shall be made in cash or Shares as provided in the Agreement, valued at the Fair Market Value on the date or dates the restrictions on the Award lapse in the case of an immediate payment after
vesting, or at the Fair Market Value on the date of settlement in the event of an elective or non-elective delayed payment. Any payment in Shares shall be effected in book entry or electronic form, provided
that issuance and delivery in certificated form shall occur if the Participant so requests in writing or the Committee so directs.
9.5
Restrictions on Stock Transferability. The Committee shall impose such restrictions on any Shares issued in connection with a Restricted Stock Unit under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions
under applicable Federal securities law, under any stock exchange upon which such Shares are then listed, and under any blue sky or state securities laws
- 12 -
applicable to such Shares. In the event the Committee so provides in an Agreement pertaining to a Restricted Stock Unit, Stock issued in connection with a Restricted Stock Unit may be designated
as Restricted Stock or Stock subject to a buyback right by the Company in the amount of, or based on, the Fair Market Value thereof or otherwise in the event the Participant does not complete a specified service period after issuance.
9.6 Failure to Satisfy Performance Goal(s). In the event that the specified Performance Goal(s) are not satisfied within the time
period established by the Committee, the Restricted Stock Units that were awarded subject to the satisfaction of such Performance Goal(s) shall be automatically forfeited and returned to the Company.
ARTICLE X
Stock Awards
Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Committee, at any time and from time to time, may grant unrestricted Stock
Awards under the Plan to one or more Employees and Non-Employee Directors in such amount or amounts as it shall determine, provided, however, that no Participant may be granted Stock Awards in any calendar
year for more than 20,000 Shares. Participants receiving Stock Awards are not required to pay the Company therefor (except for applicable tax withholding). Payment of a Stock Award shall be effected as soon as practicable after the Award Date in
book entry or electronic form, provided that issuance and delivery in certificated form shall occur if the Participant so requests in writing or the Committee so directs.
ARTICLE XI
Stock
Payment Awards to Non-Employee Directors
Non-Employee Directors may elect to receive payment of their retainer and meeting attendance
fees (“Fees”) in the form of Stock Payment Awards in accordance with the provisions of this Section. An election to receive Stock Payment Awards must be made on an annual basis by delivering written notice to the Secretary of the Company
on the election form provided by the Company for that purpose (“Election Form”).
With respect to elections for the balance of
the calendar year containing the Effective Date, the election form must be delivered on or before May 31, 2006 and is effective only with respect to fees earned after the effective date of the election; and, with respect to elections for
subsequent calendar years, the election form must be delivered on or before the date of the last Board meeting in the calendar year preceding the year to which the election relates. In the event an individual becomes a Non-Employee Director after
the deadline for delivery of the election notice for a particular calendar year, the Company may, but shall not be required to, permit such Non-Employee Director to make an election to receive Stock Payment Awards for such calendar year. Once made,
an election for a particular calendar year may not be revoked and will be effective for all Fees owing to an electing Non-Employee Director for services to be rendered as a director during that calendar year.
Stock Payment Awards shall be made on a monthly or quarterly basis, beginning with the second quarter of the calendar year 2006, as determined
by the Committee. Stock Payment Awards shall be made as soon as possible but in no event later than 30 days after the last day of the quarter or month, as determined by the Committee, for which the Non-Employee Director’s Fees are earned.
The number of Shares constituting a quarterly or monthly Stock Payment Award for each electing Non-Employee Director shall be that number of
Shares, rounded to the nearest whole number, which
- 13 -
results from dividing the respective Non-Employee Director’s Fees earned during that quarter or month by the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the Determination Date (as hereinafter
defined). The Company shall send each electing Non-Employee Director a notice or letter of agreement setting forth the number of Shares constituting each Stock Payment Award and such other terms and conditions of the Award as are consistent with
this Article. The “Determination Date” shall mean the earlier of (i) the last day of the quarter or month for which the Non-Employee Director’s Fees are earned (March 31, June 30, September 30, and
December 31, respectively) or (ii) the effective date of an electing Non-Employee Director’s termination as a member of the Board prior to the end of a calendar quarter or month.
A Non-Employee Director shall have no voting or dividend rights with respect to, and no right to transfer any interest in, any Stock Payment
Awards prior to the Determination Date for such Award. Following a Determination Date, a Non-Employee Director shall be entitled to vote Stock Payment Award Shares and to receive dividends thereafter declared and payable on such Shares. Following a
Determination Date, the Stock Payment Award Shares shall not be subject to any restrictions on transfer and the Company shall, in accordance with each Non-Employee Director’s written request made on an Election Form, either cause a stock
certificate to be issued evidencing the Stock Payment Award Shares or maintain a book entry record evidencing such Shares. Stock Payment Award Shares for which no such written request is made shall be evidenced by a book entry record. Cash dividends
on Stock Payment Award Shares evidenced by a stock certificate shall be paid in cash, and cash dividends on Stock Payment Award Shares evidenced by a book entry record shall be reinvested in Shares, in each case only as and when dividends are
declared and paid to shareholders of record of Shares.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time, the Committee
may suspend the option for Non-Employee Directors as a whole or for any class of Non-Employees Directors to elect to receive Stock Payment Awards in lieu of Fees.
ARTICLE XII
Change in
Control
In the event of a Change in Control of the Company, the Committee, as constituted before such Change in Control, in its sole
discretion may, as to any outstanding Award, either at the time the Award is made or any time thereafter, take any one or more of the following actions: (i) provide for the acceleration of any time periods relating to the exercise or
realization of any such Award so that such Award may be exercised or realized in full on or before a date initially fixed by the Committee; (ii) provide for the purchase or settlement of any such Award by the Company, with or without a
Participant’s request, for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of such Participant’s rights had such Award been currently exercisable or payable;
(iii) make such adjustment to any such Award then outstanding as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control; or (iv) cause any such Award then outstanding to be assumed, or new rights substituted therefor, by the
acquiring or surviving corporation in such Change in Control.
ARTICLE XIII
Modification, Extension, and Renewals of Awards
Subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of the Plan, the Committee may modify, extend, or renew outstanding Awards and
may modify the terms of an outstanding Agreement, provided that the exercise price of any Award may not be lowered other than pursuant to Section 4.3 herein. In addition, the Committee may accept the surrender of outstanding Awards granted
under the Plan or outstanding awards granted under any other equity compensation plan of the Company and authorize the granting of new Awards pursuant to the Plan in substitution therefor so long as the new or substituted
- 14 -
awards do not specify a lower exercise price than the surrendered Awards or awards and are not of a different type (with Options and SARs being one type and all other Awards being a different
type) and, otherwise, the new Awards may specify a longer term than the surrendered Awards or awards, may provide for more rapid vesting and exercisability than the surrendered Awards or awards, and may contain any other provisions that are
authorized by the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no modification of an Award shall, without the consent of the Participant, adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Participant.
ARTICLE XIV
Amendment,
Modification, and Termination of the Plan
14.1 Amendment, Modification and Termination. At any time and from time to time, the
Board may terminate, amend, or modify the Plan. Such amendment or modification may be without shareholder approval except to the extent that such approval is required by the Code, pursuant to the rules under Section 16 of the Exchange Act, by
any national securities exchange or system on which the Stock is then listed or reported, by any regulatory body having jurisdiction with respect thereto, or under any other applicable laws, rules, or regulations.
14.2 Awards Previously Granted. No termination, amendment, or modification of the Plan, other than pursuant to Section 4.3 or
17.10 herein, shall in any manner adversely affect any Award theretofore granted under the Plan, without the written consent of the Participant.
ARTICLE XV
Withholding
15.1 Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit
to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy Federal, State, and local taxes (including the Participant’s FICA obligation, if any) required by law to be withheld with respect to any grant, exercise, or payment made under or as a result of
the Plan.
15.2 Stock Withholding. With respect to withholding required upon the exercise of
Non-Qualified Stock Options or upon the lapse of restrictions on Restricted Stock or upon the occurrence of any other taxable event with respect to any Award, Participants may elect, subject to the approval of
the Committee, or the Committee may require Participants, to satisfy the withholding requirement in whole or in part by having the Company withhold Shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be withheld. The value of
the Shares to be withheld shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Participants shall be irrevocable and be made in writing and in such manner as
determined by the Committee in advance of the day that the transaction becomes taxable.
ARTICLE XVI
Successors
All
obligations of the Company under the Plan, with respect to Awards granted hereunder, shall be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or
otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.
- 15 -
ARTICLE XVII
General
17.1
Requirements of Law. The granting of Awards and the issuance of Shares of Stock under the Plan shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or self-regulatory
organizations (i.e., exchanges) as may be required.
17.2 Effect of Plan. The establishment of the Plan shall not confer upon any
Employee or Non-Employee Director any legal or equitable right against the Company, a Subsidiary, or the Committee, except as expressly provided in the Plan. The Plan does not constitute an inducement or consideration for the employment or service
of any Employee or Non-Employee Director, nor is it a contract between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any Employee or Non-Employee Director. Participation in the Plan shall not give any Employee or Non-Employee Director any right to be
retained in the employment or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Except as may be otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or in an Agreement, no Employee or Non-Employee Director who receives an Award shall have rights as a
shareholder of the Company prior to the date Shares are issued to the Participant pursuant to the Plan.
17.3 Creditors. The
interests of any Participant under the Plan or any Agreement are not subject to the claims of creditors and may not, in any way, be assigned, alienated, or encumbered.
17.4 Governing Law. The Plan, and all Agreements hereunder, shall be governed, construed, and administered in accordance with the laws
of the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the intention of the Company is that ISOs granted under the Plan qualify as such under Section 422 of the Code.
17.5 Severability. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held illegal or invalid for any reason, the illegality or invalidity
shall not affect the remaining parts of the Plan, and the Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the illegal or invalid provision had not been included.
17.6 Unfunded Status of Plan. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive and deferred compensation.
With respect to any payments as to which a Participant has a fixed and vested interest but that are not yet made to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a
general unsecured creditor of the Company.
17.7 Transferability. Unless the Agreement evidencing an Award (or an amendment thereto
authorized by the Committee) expressly states that it is transferable as provided in this section, no Award granted under the Plan, nor any interest in such Award, may be sold, assigned, conveyed, gifted, pledged, hypothecated, or otherwise
transferred in any manner, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, prior to the vesting or lapse of any and all restrictions applicable to any Shares issued under an Award. The Committee may in its sole discretion grant an Award
(other than an ISO) or amend an outstanding Award (other than an ISO) to provide that the Award is transferable or assignable to a member or members of the Participant’s “immediate family,” as such term is defined under Exchange Act
Rule 16a-l(e), or to a trust for the benefit solely of a member or members of the Participant’s immediate family, or to a partnership or other entity whose only owners are members of the Participant’s family, provided that, following any
such transfer or assignment, the Award will remain subject to substantially the same terms applicable to the Award while held by the Participant, as modified as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine appropriate, and the Participant
shall execute an agreement agreeing to be bound by such terms.
- 16 -
17.8 Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement
pertaining to an Award, in the event that a Participant terminates his employment or service with the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason, then the unvested portion of such Award shall automatically be forfeited to the Company. Unless
otherwise provided in the Agreement pertaining to an Award, in determining cessation of employment or service, transfers between the Company and/or any Subsidiary shall be disregarded, and changes in status between that of an Employee and a Non-Employee Director shall be disregarded. The Committee may provide in an Agreement made under the Plan for vesting of Awards in connection with the termination of a Participant’s employment or service on
such basis as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, any provisions for vesting at death, disability, retirement, or in connection with a Change in Control, with or without the further consent of the Committee. The Agreements
evidencing Awards may contain such provisions as the Committee may approve with reference to the effect of approved leaves of absence.
17.9 Registration and Other Laws And Regulations. The Plan, the grant and exercise of Awards hereunder, and the obligation of the
Company to sell, issue, or deliver Shares under such Awards, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state, and foreign laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental or regulatory agency as may be required. The Company
shall not be required to register in a Participant’s name or deliver any Shares prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of such Shares under any federal, state, or foreign law or any ruling or regulation of any government
body that the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable.
17.10 Nonqualified Deferred
Compensation Plan Omnibus Provision. It is intended that any compensation, benefits, or other remuneration, which is provided pursuant to or in connection with the Plan, which is considered to be nonqualified deferred compensation subject to
Section 409A of the Code, shall be provided and paid in a manner, and at such time and in such form, as complies with the applicable requirements of Section 409A of the Code to avoid the unfavorable tax consequences provided therein for
non-compliance. The Committee is authorized to amend any Agreement and to amend or declare void any election by a Participant as may be determined by it to be necessary or appropriate to evidence or further evidence required compliance with
Section 409A of the Code.
ARTICLE XVIII
Substitution of Awards under Other Plans or Agreements
The Committee is hereby authorized to grant Awards on such basis as it deems appropriate, and to effect the issuance of Shares of Stock under
this Plan in substitution for options, stock appreciation rights, or other forms of equity compensation awarded and outstanding under any equity compensation plan of or agreement entered into with a business entity that is acquired by the Company or
otherwise becomes a Subsidiary on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate. The Committee is expressly authorized to provide that the exercise price of an assumed option or stock appreciation right may be higher or lower than the Fair
Market Value of the Stock to which a substitute Option or SAR relates in order to approximate the inherent economic value of the assumed option or stock appreciation right.
