SECTION 1.0 - GENERAL

1.1                               Purpose of the Plan

King adopted this Plan, before it became a separate publicly traded company, to aid it in attracting, retaining and motivating employees, directors and consultants of King and the Associated Companies who were expected to contribute to the success of such entities by offering them incentives that allowed them to participate in future growth in value of Ordinary Shares. The Plan was assumed by the Company, as of the Acquisition Effective Time, in connection with the Transaction Agreement and is being continued by the Company after the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Transaction Agreement solely in respect of awards in respect of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time which are assumed by the Company and converted into Awards in respect of the Company’s Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Agreement.  No new awards will be made following the Acquisition Effective Time notwithstanding any other term set forth herein.

1.2                               Types of Awards

The Plan allowed for the grant of the following Awards: Options, Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs), Restricted Share Awards, Restricted Stock Units (RSU) Awards, Unrestricted Stock Unit Awards and Performance Awards.

1.3                               Effective Date

The Plan was approved by the board of directors of King and by its shareholders on 6 March 2014 and became effective on the Effective Date.  The Plan was assumed by the Company as of the Acquisition Effective Time.  From and after the Acquisition Effective Time, the Shares available for issuance in respect of Awards granted hereunder (including Substitute Awards) are shares of Common Stock, and sections 3.0.  4.0, and 6.0 through 13.0 of the Plan are retained solely to the extent necessary or appropriate to understand and administer the terms of the Awards related to King awards in respect of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, which are assumed by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Transaction Agreement.

1.4                               Capitalized Terms

Capitalized terms not defined elsewhere in the text are defined in Section 25.

SECTION 2.0 - SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

2.1                               Number of Shares

The number of Shares of Common Stock that are available for issuance hereunder from the Acquisition Effective Time is the number of Ordinary Shares that were issuable in respect of awards granted by King prior to, and outstanding immediately prior to, the Acquisition Effective Time which are assumed by the Company and converted into Awards in respect of the Company’s Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the Transaction Agreement, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio.  Any additional Ordinary Shares that were available for issuance under the Plan immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time shall no longer be available for issuance hereunder following the Acquisition Effective Time, and no Shares of Common Stock shall be issuable in respect thereof.  No additional Shares shall become available for issuance hereunder following the Acquisition Effective Time.

2.2                               Lapsed, Returned Awards

Shares that are subject to Awards that lapse, expire or are forfeited or otherwise cancelled following the Acquisition Effective Time shall not again become available for Awards hereunder.

2.3                               Substitute Awards — Acquisition by the Company

Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, any option or other equity award in respect of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time that (i) was granted pursuant to an individual award agreement (and not under the Plan) prior to the Effective Date and (ii) pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, was to be assumed by the Company and converted into an option or another award in respect of Shares of Common Stock, shall be deemed to have been converted into a Substitute Award in respect of the Company’s Common Stock under this Plan.  Any Substitute Award shall have the same terms and conditions as were applicable under the underlying individual award agreement by which King effected the award and in place immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, subject to any amendments which were to come into effect at the Acquisition Effective Time, including such amendments as are necessary or appropriate to reflect the assumption, and the conversion, thereof into a right in respect of the Common Stock and as otherwise may be required to reflect the change of control of King.  The amendments contemplated pursuant to the foregoing sentence include: (i) applying the Exchange Ratio to determine (x) the number of Shares of the Common Stock to which such Substitute Award relates and (y) the exercise price per Share in respect of any Substitute Award that is an option to acquire Shares, (ii) substituting the Company for King in all

2

respects in regard to any such individual award agreement, including authorizing the Committee or the Board, as the case may be, to perform any action or to exercise any authority or discretion reserved to the King compensation committee or the King board of directors; and (iii) where applicable, any amendments made to individual award agreements pursuant to the AB Executive Service Agreements (as defined in the Transaction Agreement).

2.4                               Minimum Share Reserve

At all times the Company shall reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as shall reasonably be required to satisfy all outstanding Awards.

2.5                               Individual Limit

Prior to the Acquisition Effective Time, grants of Awards in respect of Ordinary Shares were subject to individual limits.  Such limits provided that no Participant could be granted Awards in the aggregate in any calendar year in respect of more than 1,250,000 Ordinary Shares, except that a new Employee (including a new Employee who was also hired as an officer or director of King or any Associated Company) could be granted in the aggregate in the calendar year in which he commenced employment Awards in respect of up to 2,500,000 Ordinary Shares.

2.6                               Variation in Share Capital

In the event that following the Acquisition Effective Time any change is made in the Shares, without consideration, through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization, reincorporation, share dividend, dividend in property other than cash, large nonrecurring cash dividend, share split, liquidating dividend, combination of shares, exchange of shares, change in corporate structure or any similar equity restructuring transaction, including, for the avoidance of doubt, capitalization of profits or reserves, capital distribution, rights issue, the conversion of one class of share to another or reduction of capital or otherwise, then the Committee shall proportionately and appropriately adjust any or all of the following: (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan set forth in Section 2.1; (b) the Exercise Price and/or number and/or class of Shares subject to each outstanding Option and SAR; (c) the Purchase Price and/or number and/or class of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards; and (d) the Purchase Price paid under any Restricted Share Award; subject to any required action by the Board or the shareholders of the Company and in compliance with Applicable Law; provided that (i) in no event shall the Exercise Price or Purchase Price of any share be less than the nominal value of such share, and (ii) a fraction of a Share will not be issued.  The determination of the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive.

3

2.7                               Source of Shares

The Shares issued or delivered under the Plan shall be authorized but unissued Shares or acquired Shares, including, subject to Applicable Law, Shares acquired by the Company or, subject to Section 2.8, the Employee Benefit Trust, on the open market or otherwise.

2.8                               Shares Acquired by the Employee Benefit Trust

Shares acquired by the Employee Benefit Trust may not be used to satisfy an Award (i) to the extent that such Shares would be offered or delivered to a person resident in the United States unless the Committee in its sole discretion is satisfied that such offer or delivery would be in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, and/or (ii) to a Director.

SECTION 3.0 - GRANT OF AWARDS

Except for grants made in substitution for awards in respect of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Acquisition Effective Time and assumed by the Company and converted to relate to Shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, no Awards may be granted at any time or times from and after the Acquisition Effective Time. The date of grant of an Award that was assumed by the Company and converted to an Award in respect of Shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Transaction Agreement shall be the date of grant of the Award by King in respect of Ordinary Shares.

SECTION 4.0 - APPLICABILITY

Only those Employees, Consultants, Directors and Non-Employee Directors who held awards in respect of Ordinary Shares that were assumed by the Company in accordance with the Transaction Agreement shall have any rights in respect of any Award under this Plan from and after the Acquisition Effective Time.

Without limiting the generality of any other provision of the Plan, except to the extent that so doing would impair the contractual rights afforded under any Award Agreement, any rules adopted or other determinations made by the Compensation Committee of King prior to the Acquisition Effective Time shall no longer apply with respect to Awards from and after the Acquisition Effective Time.

The Committee will have the authority to:

5.2.1                               construe and interpret the Plan, any Award Agreement and any other agreement or document executed pursuant to the Plan, and in the event of any dispute or disagreement as to the interpretation of any of the same, or as to any question or right arising from or related to the Plan, the decision of the Committee shall be final and binding upon all persons;

5.2.9                               reduce or waive any criteria with respect to Performance Factors;

5.2.10                        adjust Performance Factors to take into account changes in law, accounting or tax rules as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships, provided that such adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to persons whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code;

5.2.11                        adopt rules and/or procedures (including the adoption of any subplan under the Plan) relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate requirements of local law and procedures;

5.3                               Committee Discretion and Disputes

5.3.1                               Any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award shall be made in its sole discretion at the time of grant of the Award or, unless in contravention of any express term of the Plan or Award, at any later time, and such determination shall be final and binding on the Company and all persons having an interest in the Award.  The Committee’s exercise of any discretionary authority shall not obligate it to exercise such authority in a like manner thereafter.

5.3.2                               Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be submitted by the Participant or Company to the

6

Committee for review.  The resolution of such a dispute by the Committee shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant.  The Committee may delegate to one or more executive officers the authority to review and resolve disputes with respect to Awards, and such resolution shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant(s) involved, in the same manner and to the same extent as if the action had been taken by the Committee.

5.4                               Delivery of Documentation

The Award Agreement for a given Award, the Plan and any other documents relating to the Plan or an Award may be delivered to, and accepted by, a Participant or any other person in any manner (including electronic distribution or posting, including through any automated system, such as an interactive website or interactive voice response operated by King, the Company or any third party on their behalf) that meets the requirements of Applicable Law.

5.5                               Award Recipients in Various Countries

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the Applicable Law of any country in which individuals who are eligible for Awards or Participants are resident, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to:

5.5.1                               determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan;

5.5.2                               modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to individuals in any jurisdiction to comply with applicable local laws;

5.5.3                               establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent the Committee determines such actions to be necessary or advisable (and such subplans and/or modifications shall be attached to this Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the Share limitations contained in Section 2; and

5.5.4                               take any action, before or after an Award is granted, that the Committee determines to be necessary or advisable to obtain approval or comply with any local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act or any other applicable United States securities law.

7

5.6                               Section 162(m) of the Code

When necessary or desirable for an Award to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code the Committee shall include at least two persons who are “outside directors” (as defined under Section 162(m) of the Code) and at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” shall approve the grant of such Award and timely determine (as applicable) the Performance Period and any Performance Factors upon which vesting or settlement of any portion of such Award is to be subject.  When required by Section 162(m) of the Code, prior to settlement of any such Award at least two (or a majority if more than two then serve on the Committee) such “outside directors” then serving on the Committee shall determine and certify in writing the extent to which such Performance Factors have been timely achieved and the extent to which the Award has been earned or has vested or become exercisable or the Shares subject to such Award have thereby been earned or vested.  With respect to Participants whose compensation is subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, and provided that such adjustments are consistent with the regulations promulgated under Section 162(m) of the Code, the Committee may adjust the performance goals to account for changes in law and accounting and to make such adjustments as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to reflect the impact of extraordinary or unusual items, events or circumstances to avoid windfalls or hardships, including without limitation, (a) restructurings, discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and other unusual or non-recurring charges, (b) an event either not directly related to the operations of the Company or not within the reasonable control of the Company’s management, or (c) a change in accounting standards required by generally accepted accounting principles.

SECTION 6.0 - OPTIONS

6.1                               General

An Option is the right to subscribe for up to a specified number of Shares, subject to such conditions as may be determined by the Committee in accordance with the Plan.  The Committee may grant Options to Employees, Consultants and Directors (including Non-Employee Directors) and will determine the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price, the period or periods during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of the Option, subject to the following terms of this section.

8

6.2                               Exercise Price

The Exercise Price of an Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted provided that the Exercise Price will be not less than one hundred per cent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant of the Option and in no event will be less than the nominal value of a Share.  Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made in accordance with Section 14, the Award Agreement and any procedures established by the Company.

6.3                               Performance Factors

Exercisability of an Option may be, but need not be, conditional upon satisfaction of such Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are determined by the Committee and set out in the Award Agreement.  If exercisability of the Option is conditional upon the satisfaction of Performance Factors, then the Committee will: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Option; and (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance.  Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to Options that are subject to different performance goals and other criteria.

6.4                               Exercise Period

Subject to the conditions regarding exercise set forth in the Award Agreement governing an Option, the Option may be exercised for all, or from time to time any part, of the Shares for which it is then exercisable; provided, however, that (a) no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted, and (b) no Option may be exercised at a time when such exercise and/or the issuance of Shares pursuant to such exercise would be in breach of the Insider Trading Policy or Applicable Law.  The Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines.

6.5                               Method of Exercise

An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (a) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Committee may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (b) full payment of the Exercise Price for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised.  Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant.  Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a shareholder will exist with respect to

9

the Shares, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option.  The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares as soon as reasonably practicable after the Option is exercised.

6.6                               Termination of Service

If the Participant’s Service terminates for any reason except for Cause or the Participant’s death, Disability or retirement, then each Option held by the Participant shall lapse on the date of such termination of Service to the extent such Option is not exercisable by the Participant on such date, unless the Committee determines otherwise.  The Participant may exercise each Option, to the extent the Option is exercisable by the Participant on the date his Service terminates, within the period of three (3) months after the date the Participant’s Service terminates, but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Option, and the Option shall lapse upon the expiration of such period.

6.6.1                               Death

If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s death (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after his Service terminates other than for Cause or because of his Disability or retirement), then each Option held by the Participant shall lapse on the date of such termination of Service to the extent such Option is not exercisable on such date, unless the Committee determines otherwise.  Each Option, to the extent exercisable on the date the Participant’s Service terminates, may be exercised by the Participant’s estate or person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance within the period of twelve (12) months after the date the Participant’s Service terminates, but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Option, and the Option shall lapse upon the expiration of such period.

6.6.2                               Disability

If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s Disability, then each Option held by the Participant shall lapse on the date of such termination of Service to the extent such Option is not exercisable on such date, unless the Committee determines otherwise.  The Participant may exercise each Option, to the extent the Option is exercisable by the Participant on the date the Participant’s Service terminates, within the period of twelve (12) months after the date the Participant’s Service terminates, but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Option, and the Option shall lapse upon the expiration of such period.

10

6.6.3                               Retirement

If the Participant’s Service terminates because of the Participant’s retirement in accordance with his contract of Service, then each Option held by the Participant shall lapse on the date of such termination of Service to the extent such Option is not exercisable on such date, unless the Committee determines otherwise.  The Participant may exercise each Option, to the extent the Option is exercisable by the Participant on the date the Participant’s Service terminates, within the period of twelve (12) months after the date the Participant’s Service terminates, but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Option, and the Option shall lapse upon the expiration of such period.

6.6.4                               Cause

If the Participant’s Service is terminated for Cause, then, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Participant’s Options shall lapse on such Participant’s date of termination of Service or, if earlier, upon the service of notice of termination of the Participant’s Service, but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Option.  Unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, Cause shall have the meaning set forth in Section 25.

6.6.5                               Committee Discretion

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.6, the Committee shall have discretion to determine, at the time of grant of an Option or at any time thereafter, where it considers that it is necessary or appropriate, that an Option shall remain exercisable for a period after the termination of a Participant’s Service that is less than or greater than the period specified in this Section 6.6, but in no event later than the expiration date of the Option.

6.7                               Limitations on Exercise

The Committee may specify a minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent any Participant from exercising an Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable.  An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

6.8                               Modification, Extension or Renewal

The Committee may modify or amend the terms of, extend or renew outstanding Options and/or authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a

11

Participant, impair any of such Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted.

6.9                               Extension of Option Term where Exercise Is Prohibited

If the exercise of an Option, the issuance of Shares pursuant to the exercise of an Option, or the immediate sale of such Shares during the post-termination exercise period permitted under Section 6.6 would be in violation of the Insider Trading Policy or Applicable Law, then the period for exercise of the Option shall be extended such that the Option shall lapse on the earlier of (i) the expiration of a total period (that need not be consecutive) equal to the applicable post-termination exercise period under Section 6.6 during which such exercise or issuance or sale would not be in such violation, or (ii) the expiration date of the Option as set forth in the Award Agreement.

6.10                        Potential Termination for Cause

The exercise of an Option shall not be permitted during any period in which the Participant is subject to an investigation or disciplinary process which, in the Committee’s opinion, could result in a termination for Cause.

SECTION 7.0 - STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

7.1                               General

A Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR”) is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant, or Director (including a Non-Employee Director) in respect of a specified number of Shares that may be settled, in the discretion of the Committee, in cash or Shares.

7.2                               Terms of SARs

The Committee will determine the terms of each SAR including, without limitation: (a) the number of Shares subject to the SAR; (b) the Exercise Price and the time or times during which the SAR may be exercised; (c) the consideration to be distributed on settlement of the SAR and the time or times when the SAR will be settled; and (d) the effect of the Participant’s termination of Service on the SAR.  The Exercise Price of the SAR will be determined by the Committee when the SAR is granted, and may not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant.  Exercise of a SAR may, but need not be, conditional upon satisfaction of such Performance Factors during any Performance Period as are determined by the Committee and set out in the individual Award Agreement.  If exercise of the SAR is subject to the satisfaction of Performance Factors, then the Committee

12

will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period; and (y) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure the performance.  Performance Periods may overlap and Participants may participate simultaneously with respect to SARs that are subject to different Performance Factors and other criteria.

7.3                               Exercise Period and Expiration Date

A SAR will be exercisable at the time(s) or during the period(s) or upon the occurrence of events determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement.  The Award Agreement shall set forth the expiration date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the SAR is granted.  The Committee may also provide for SARs to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise (including, without limitation, upon the attainment during a Performance Period of performance goals based on Performance Factors), in such number of Shares or percentage of the Shares subject to the SAR as the Committee determines.

7.4                               Form and Timing of Settlement

Upon exercise of a SAR, the Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in the amount equal to the product of (a) the excess of the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price of the SAR and (b) the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.  At the discretion of the Committee, the payment from the Company for the SAR exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value (subject to payment by the Participant in cash of the nominal value of any newly issued Shares), or in some combination thereof.  The portion of a SAR being settled may be paid currently or on a deferred basis with such interest or Dividend Equivalent, if any, as the Committee determines, provided that the terms of the SAR and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, if applicable.

7.5                               Termination of Service

Vesting of a SAR ceases on the date the Participant’s Service terminates.  Unless otherwise stated in the Award Agreement, the provisions of Sections 6.6 to 6.10 will also apply to SARs, as they apply to Options.

13

SECTION 8.0 - RESTRICTED SHARE AWARDS

8.1                               General

A Restricted Share Award is an offer by the Company to issue or procure the transfer to an eligible Employee, Consultant or Director (including a Non-Employee Director) of Shares that are subject to restrictions, including restrictions on transfer, (“Restricted Shares”).  The Committee will determine to whom such an offer will be made, the number of Restricted Shares a Participant may acquire, the Purchase Price, the restrictions to which the Shares will be subject and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Share Award, subject to the Plan.  “Vesting” for purposes of this Section 8.0 shall mean the restrictions applicable to Restricted Shares lapsing in accordance with the Award Agreement and “vested” shall be construed accordingly.

8.2                               Restricted Share Award Agreement

All purchases under a Restricted Share Award will be evidenced by an Award Agreement.

8.3                               Purchase Price

The Purchase Price for a Restricted Share Award will be determined by the Committee and may be less than the Fair Market Value of the Restricted Shares on the date the Restricted Share Award is granted, provided that if the Restricted Shares are newly issued Shares, it shall be no less than the nominal value of the Restricted Shares.  Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 14, the Award Agreement and any procedures established by the Company.

8.4                               Terms of Restricted Share Awards

Restricted Shares will be subject to such transfer and/or other restrictions as the Committee may impose and/or are required by Applicable Law.  Lapse of restrictions may be based on completion by the Participant of a specified period or periods of Service and/or upon satisfaction of Performance Factors during any Performance Period, as set out in the Award Agreement and/or such other conditions as may be determined by the Committee.  Prior to the grant of a Restricted Share Award, the Committee shall: (a) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Share Award; (b) select from among the Performance Factors to be used to measure performance goals, if any; (c) determine the number of Restricted Shares that will cease to be subject to the applicable restrictions and thereby vest and the date(s) on which such vesting will occur; and (d) determine the treatment of Restricted Shares that do not vest

14

pursuant to the Restricted Share Award, which may include forfeiture or compulsorily transfer by the Participant upon such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine, and the consideration (if any) payable to the Participant for such Restricted Shares.  Performance Periods may overlap and a Participant may participate simultaneously with respect to Restricted Share Awards that are subject to different Performance Periods and having different performance goals and other criteria.

8.5                               Termination of Service

Except as may be set forth in the Participant’s Award Agreement, vesting ceases on the date the Participant’s Service terminates (unless determined otherwise by the Committee).

8.6                               Issuance or Delivery of Restricted Shares

The Company shall issue share certificates that evidence Restricted Shares pending the lapse of the applicable restrictions, and that bear a legend making appropriate reference to such restrictions.  To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Restricted Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing the Restricted Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated, and the Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificates.

8.7                               Release of Shares upon Vesting

As soon as practicable after vesting of a Participant’s Restricted Shares, subject to the Participant’s satisfaction of applicable tax and other withholding requirements, the Company shall release or procure the release to the Participant, free from the applicable restrictions, of his vested Shares, unless the Award Agreement provides otherwise, and deliver the share certificates.

SECTION 9.0 - RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT (RSU) AWARDS

9.1                               General

A Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) Award is an award to an eligible Employee, Consultant or Director (including a Non-Employee Director) covering a specified maximum number of RSUs.

9.3                               Purchase Price

The Committee may determine the Purchase Price, if any, applicable to the RSU Award, provided always that if the Shares to be issued in settlement of RSUs are newly issued Shares, a Purchase Price of no less than the nominal value of the Shares shall be paid by the Participant.  Payment of any Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 14 of the Plan, the Award Agreement and any procedures established by the Company.

9.4                               Form and Timing of Settlement

Settlement of vested RSUs shall be made as soon as practicable after the vesting date(s) determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, may settle vested RSUs in cash, Shares, or a combination of both.  The Committee may also permit a Participant to defer settlement under an RSU Award to a date or dates after the RSUs vest provided that the terms of the RSU Award and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, if applicable.

9.5                               Termination of Service

SECTION 11.0 - PERFORMANCE AWARDS

17

11.3                        Value, Earning and Timing of Performance Shares

Each Performance Share will have an initial value equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant.  After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the holder of Performance Shares will be entitled to receive a payout of the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the relevant Performance Factors or other vesting conditions have been achieved.  The Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay earned Performance Shares in the form of cash, in Shares (which have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the value of the number of earned Performance Shares at the close of the applicable Performance Period, and subject to payment by the Participant of the nominal value of any newly issued Shares) or in a combination thereof.

11.4                        Termination of Service

SECTION 15.0 - TAXES

15.1                        Withholding/Deduction Generally

It shall be a condition of the grant, exercise, vesting, cancellation or surrender of an Award, the issuance or delivery of Shares to a Participant pursuant to an Award, and any other action in relation to an Award that the Participant shall make such arrangements as the Company, King or any Associated Company or the Employee Benefit Trust or the acquirer in any Corporate Transaction or any other party affiliated to or associated with the Company may require for the satisfaction of all and any applicable taxes, social security or insurance contributions and other duties and imposts for which such entity or party is liable to account in any jurisdiction and the Company shall not effect or permit the grant, exercise, vesting, cancellation or other action in relation to an Award, or the issuance or delivery of Shares to the Participant, until it is satisfied that all such obligations are or will be satisfied.  Whenever a payment in satisfaction of an Award is to be made in cash, such payment will be net of an amount determined by the Company, King or the Associated Company employing or engaging the Participant, sufficient to satisfy all applicable tax requirements and any other liability legally due from the Participant.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company may withhold or account for taxes contemplated by this Section 15.1 by reference to applicable withholding rates, including minimum or maximum applicable statutory rates.

15.3                        Share Withholding

The Committee in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time and subject to Applicable Law, may require or permit a Participant to satisfy any tax or other liability due from the Participant as

21

Transfer Program, including (but not limited to) the authority to (a) amend (including to extend) the expiration date, post-termination exercise period and/or restrictions on transfer, forfeiture or compulsory transfer conditions of any such Award, (b) amend or remove any provision of the Award relating to the Participant’s continued Service, (c) amend the permissible payment methods with respect to the exercise or settlement of any such Award, (d) amend the adjustments to be implemented in the event of changes in the Company’s capitalization and other similar events with respect to such Award, and (e) include such additional terms and conditions and make such other changes to the terms of such Award or require the transferee to enter into a new Award Agreement as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate in its sole discretion.
