Compensation & Talent Committee approved revised PSU Agreement for uniformity across 2024-2026 grants.

All outstanding PSUs, including those held by executive officers and retired executives, amended effective April 10, 2026.

PSUs now feature double trigger vesting: termination without cause or good reason within one year post-change in control.

Vesting amount equals greater of target PSUs or actual performance over truncated period.

Retired executives' PSUs vest fully upon change in control at greater of target or performance level.

New PSU Agreement applies to future grants under 2010 Equity Incentive Plan.

Full analysis

The amendment standardizes treatment of performance stock units across grant years, shifting 2024 single-trigger PSUs to double-trigger vesting aligned with 2025-2026 awards. This reduces immediate dilution risk in a change in control by requiring both the transaction and qualifying termination. Investors benefit from clearer, consistent executive incentives tied to performance, with protections for retired executives holding awards. The revised terms under Exhibit 10.1 enhance alignment by vesting at the greater of target or truncated performance, potentially preserving value while mitigating windfall payouts.
