1.The Incentive Compensation Award. The MIC Award is subject to the terms and conditions of this Management Incentive Compensation Award Agreement ("Agreement") and the MIC. The Incentive Compensation Award is a cash award payable as set forth in this Agreement. The target amount of the award for the Employee, as a percentage of Employee's year-end annual base compensation from the Company, is set forth on Schedule 1 of this Agreement. The amount payable will be adjusted upward or downward, or may be forfeited, based on performance as set forth on Schedule 1 of this Agreement. "Vested" portion of the Award is the portion of the Award to which the Employee has a nonforfeitable rights. An Award shall be paid hereunder only to the extent that such Award is Vested, as provided in this Agreement. The Employee's rights to payment under the Award are subject to the restrictions described in this Agreement and the MIC in addition to such other restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law.
2.    Payment of Award. The amount determined under Schedule 1 shall be paid to the Employee in cash not later than March 15, 2018, subject to applicable tax withholding.
3.    Treatment of Awards Upon a Change of Control; Termination of Employment.
(a)In the event a Change of Control (defined below) occurs prior to the close of the performance year with respect to the Award, for the performance period from January 1, 2017 to the date of closing of the Change of Control (the "COC Performance Year") the applicable performance metrics specified in Schedule 1 of the Award Agreement shall be determined as follows: (i) the performance year shall be deemed to end on the effective date of such transaction; and (ii) the performance metrics shall be deemed achieved to the extent the applicable performance metrics specified in Schedule 1 of the Award Agreement for the shortened performance year described in clause (i) above are on target to be achieved based upon the financial information available to the Company. In the event such performance metrics have been achieved pursuant to the foregoing sentence for the COC Performance Year and the MIC (or an equivalent plan approved by the Board that is no less lucrative or generous than the MIC) is not continued for the period from the end of the COC Performance Year to the end of calendar year 2017, the full amount of the Award determined under Schedule 1 shall be paid to the Employee in cash promptly following the Change of Control, subject to applicable tax withholding. In the event such performance metrics have been achieved pursuant to the first sentence above for the COC Performance Year and the MIC (or an equivalent plan approved by the Board that is no less lucrative or generous than the MIC) is continued for the period from the end of the COC Performance Year to the end of the calendar year (subject to an adjustment for any payments made at the Change of Control effective date hereunder), the amount of the Award determined under Schedule 1 shall be prorated by multiplying the Award by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the COC Performance Year and the denominator of which is 365, and such Award shall be paid to the Employee in cash promptly following the Change of Control, subject to applicable tax withholding.

Operating Income Metric at maximum or above:    34% of Award = 1.5X

Free Cash Flow Metric below minimum:    33% of Award = no payment
Free Cash Flow Metric equal to minimum:    33% of Award = 0.25X
Free Cash Flow Metric at target:    33% of Award = X
Free Cash Flow Metric at maximum or above:     33% of Award = 1.5X

Revenue Metric below minimum:    33% of Award = no payment

Revenue Metric at target:    33% of Award = X
Revenue Metric at maximum or above:     33% of Award = 1.5X
The amount payable between the levels of Operating Income, Free Cash Flow and Revenue identified above shall be determined on the basis of straight line interpolation between points.
(e)    The Committee may in its sole discretion adjust Award amount determined under subsection (d) upwards or downwards by 20% based on a set of individual goals separate from the thresholds of Operating Income, Free Cash Flow and Revenue which shall be set by the Committee (or the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company as its delegate, except with respect to his own Award) and delivered to the Employee in a separate writing.
The amount payable with respect to an Award shall in all cases be capped at one hundred eighty percent (180%) of a Participant's target Award (1.8X).
