Each PSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock (a “Share”), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Plan and the Approval (as such term is hereinafter defined) including, without limitation, the potential upward or downward adjustment in the number of Shares issued to the Participant pursuant to this Agreement.
2. Vesting Conditions. The Participant’s right to receive Shares covered by this Agreement shall become vested on March 28, 2027, subject to (i) confirmation by the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company of the attainment of the 3-Year Cumulative Adjusted EBIT (“Adjusted EBIT”) and/or Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) performance conditions and the performance levels achieved, and to the other provisions set forth in Exhibit A to the minutes of the meeting of the Committee approving (the “Approval”) the grant subject to this Agreement and (ii) the Participant’s continuous employment or other service with the Company through the vesting date. The terms of this grant including the Adjusted EBIT and ROIC performance conditions; upward (up to a maximum award of 150% of the number of Shares) or downward (to the minimum award of 50% of the number of Shares) adjustments to the number of Shares earned, absence of vesting of any PSU shares if the minimum thresholds with respect to the performance conditions are not attained, based on actual performance compared to the performance conditions; the percentage of Shares earned based on satisfaction of the Adjusted EBIT or ROIC performance condition; accounting adjustments provided for in determining Adjusted EBIT and ROIC; and other matters related to the PSUs are all as set forth in the Approval. All determinations with respect to the satisfaction of the Adjusted EBIT or ROIC performance condition and the other matters set forth in the Approval shall be made by the Committee and shall be in accordance with the terms set forth in the Approval.
3. Settlement of PSUs. If and when PSUs become vested, the Participant will have the right to receive a corresponding number of whole Shares from the Company in full settlement of such vested PSUs, unless the Committee shall decide to settle such award in cash, or a combination of Shares and cash, with any cash paid in lieu of Shares based on the Fair Market Value of such Shares on the vesting date. Such Shares will be issued and delivered in certificated or electronic form, or if applicable such cash paid, as soon as practicable after the applicable PSU vesting date (but not more than 90 days after such date and in no event later than March 15 of the year following the year in which the vesting date occurs), subject to any applicable tax withholding and other conditions set forth in the Plan, this Agreement and/or applicable law.
