Unless an Officer qualifies for a prorated Award as described in the Plan due to a Qualifying Change in Control Termination or as the result of the Officer’s Separation from Service during the second half of the Performance Period due to death, Disability, Retirement, or Impaction, the Officer’s Award will be forfeited upon the Officer’s Separation from Service prior to the end of the Performance Period. If the Company terminates an Officer’s employment for Cause during or following the expiration of the Performance Period, all vested and unvested Performance Shares shall be canceled and forfeited immediately, regardless of whether the Officer elects Retirement. As described in the Plan, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (determined as of the first day of the Performance Period) shall be entitled to a full (rather than a prorated) Performance Share Award, calculated at the end of the Performance Period based on actual performance during the Performance Period, if he has a Separation from Service at any time during the Performance Period for reasons other than for Cause.
