Continued participation in the Executive Short-Term Incentive Plan with respect to the 2012 and 2013 fiscal years with the current target award of 85% of salary; provided, that the award earned for fiscal 2013 will be based on the salary earned in fiscal 2013 through the Transition Date;

 

   

Treatment of outstanding stock options and performance share units as provided under the applicable agreements and related plan documents; provided, that Mr. Molloy will be entitled to receive a prorated portion of the performance share units deemed earned following the 2014 fiscal year-end under the award granted to him on March 14, 2012, based on the months worked through the Separation Date;

 

   

Continued accrual of vacation through the Transition Date;
