4. Administration
(a)
The Plan shall be administered by the Committee, which may delegate its duties and powers in whole or in part to any subcommittee thereof consisting solely of at least two
individuals who are intended to qualify as independent directors within the meaning of the New York Stock Exchange listed company rules, Non-Employee Directors within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Act (or any successor
rule thereto) and, to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code (or any successor section thereto), outside directors within the meaning thereof. In addition, the Committee may delegate the authority to grant Awards under
the Plan to any employee or group of employees of the Company or an Affiliate; provided that such grants are consistent with guidelines established by the Committee from time to time.
(b)
The Committee shall have the full power and authority to make, and establish the terms and conditions of, any Award to any person eligible to be a Participant,
consistent with the provisions of the Plan and to waive any such terms and conditions at any time (including, without limitation, accelerating or waiving any vesting conditions). Awards may, in the discretion of the Committee, be made under the Plan
in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or its affiliates or a company acquired by the
Company or with which the Company combines. The number of Shares underlying such substitute awards shall be counted against the aggregate number of Shares
available for Awards under the Plan.
(c)
The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any other determinations that it deems
necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan, and may delegate such authority, as it deems appropriate. The Committee may correct any defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the
extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable. Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of the Plan, as described herein, shall lie within its sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding
on all parties concerned (including, but not limited to, Participants and their beneficiaries or successors).
(d)
The Committee shall require payment of any amount it may determine to be necessary to withhold for federal, state, local or other taxes as a result of the exercise, grant or vesting
of an Award. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise, the Participant may elect to pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by (a) delivery of Shares or (b) having Shares withheld by the Company with a Fair Market Value equal to the
minimum statutory withholding rate from any Shares that would have otherwise been received by the Participant.
