AWARDS

 

3.1

No Award is intended to confer any rights on the Participant except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. In particular, no Award should be construed as giving the Participant the right to remain employed by or to continue to provide services for the Company or any Subsidiary.

Awards shall be granted for no consideration or for such minimal cash consideration as may be required by applicable law.

 

3.3

Awards may be granted alone or in addition or in tandem with any other Award and/or any award under any other plan of the Company or any Subsidiary.

3.5

Plan Shares, including Awards in the form of Shares, shall be delivered in such form(s) as may be determined by the Board and shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Board may deem required or advisable.

The Board may grant Awards in the form of Options.

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

 

5.1

The right of the Participant to exercise the Performance Options, and the timing thereof, is conditional upon the achievement or satisfaction of the Performance Criteria, within the specified periods.

 

5.2

If a Performance Option is subject to Performance Criteria which must be achieved or satisfied within a period, such Performance Option can only be exercised or settled at or after the end of that period. Satisfaction of the Performance Criteria will be determined in the full and unfettered discretion of the Board following advice from the Committee. The Board shall notify the Participant hereof in writing.

 

5.3

For the avoidance of doubt, the Participant does not have the right to exercise the Performance Options before the ending of the Performance Period.

 

5.4

Performance Criteria may be measured on an absolute or relative basis and may be established on a Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units, divisions, Subsidiaries and/or business segments. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies determined by the Board following advice from the Committee, financial market indices and/or other objective and quantifiable indices. Performance Criteria may relate to performance by the Company and/or by the Participant concerned.

 

5.5

If the Board, following advice from the Committee, determines that a change in the business, operations, group structure or capital structure of the Company, or other events or circumstances, render certain Performance Criteria applicable to outstanding Performance Options unsuitable or inappropriate, the Board, following advice from the Committee, may amend or waive such Performance Criteria, in whole or in part, as the Board deems appropriate. Whereby it is considered that any amendment will not adversely affect the existing rights of the Participant.
