Section 8. Tax Provisions.

(a)    Withholding Taxes. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Policy such federal, state and local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

(b)    Section 409A.

(i)    This Policy and the payments and benefits hereunder are intended to qualify for the short-term deferral exception to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and all regulations, rulings and other guidance issued thereunder, all as amended and in effect from time to time (“Section 409A”), described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) to the maximum extent possible, and to the extent they do not so qualify, they are intended to qualify for the involuntary separation pay plan exception to Section 409A described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) to the maximum extent possible.

-5-

(ii)    To the extent Section 409A is applicable to this Policy, this Policy is intended to comply with Section 409A. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if on the date of termination of employment the Eligible Officer is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A as determined in accordance with the Company’s procedures for making such determination, to the extent required in order to comply with Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable under this Policy during the six-month period immediately following the Termination Date shall instead be paid on the first business day after the date that is six months following the Termination Date.

(iii)     If a payment hereunder that is subject to execution of the Release could be made in more than one taxable year, payment shall be made in the later taxable year.

(iv)    All references herein to “Termination Date,” “Separation from Service” or “Termination of Employment” shall mean separation from service as an employee within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h).

(v)    The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no liability to the Eligible Officer or any other person if any provisions of this Policy are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section.

(vi)    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to the extent any expense reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit under this Policy is determined to be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the amount of any such expenses eligible for reimbursement, or the provision of any in-kind benefit, in one calendar year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year (except for any lifetime or other aggregate limitation applicable to medical expenses), in no event shall any expenses be reimbursed after the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which such Eligible Officer incurred such expenses, and in no event shall any right to reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(c)    Section 280G Contingent Cutback. In the event that the severance and other benefits provided for in this Policy or otherwise payable to an Eligible Officer (i) constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and (ii) but for this provision, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then such severance and other benefits shall be payable either (i) in full or (ii) as to such lesser amount that would result in no portion of such severance and other benefits being subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, results in the receipt by such Eligible Officer on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of severance benefits under this Policy or otherwise, notwithstanding that all or some portion of such severance benefits may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code. To the extent any of such severance benefits are “deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, any reduction shall be made in the following manner: first a pro rata reduction of (i) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code as deferred compensation and (ii) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code, and second a pro rata cancellation of (x) equity-based compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code as deferred compensation and (y) equity-based compensation not subject to Section 409A of the Code; provided that reduction in either cash payments

-6-

or equity compensation benefits shall be made pro rata between and among benefits that are subject to Section 409A of the Code and benefits that are exempt from Section 409A of the Code. Any determination required under this provision shall be made in writing by the Company’s independent public accountants or other advisor selected by the Company (the “Accountants”), whose determination shall be conclusive and binding upon such Eligible Officer and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this provision, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and such Eligible Officer shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this provision. The Company shall bear all costs paid to the Accountants in connection with any calculations contemplated by this provision.

Section 9. Miscellaneous.

(a)    Entire Agreement; No Duplication of Benefits. Any amounts payable hereunder shall be reduced by any notice under, or payments in lieu of notice under, the WARN Act (or similar state law). Any amounts payable under this Policy shall not be duplicative of any other severance benefits, and to the extent an Eligible Officer has executed an individually negotiated agreement with the Company relating to severance benefits that is in effect on his or her Termination Date, no amounts will be due hereunder unless such Eligible Officer acknowledges and agrees that the severance benefits, if any, provided under this Policy are in lieu of and not in addition to any severance benefits provided under the terms of such individually negotiated agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall modify, terminate, supersede or replace any provisions under the Company’s equity incentive plan and individual award agreements thereunder, except for those provisions relating to continued vesting or minimum holding periods.

(b)    No Implied Employment Contract. This Policy is not an employment contract. Nothing in this Policy or any other instrument executed pursuant to this Policy shall confer upon an Eligible Officer any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate an Eligible Officer’s employment at any time for any reason. The Company and the Eligible Officer acknowledge that the Eligible Officer’s employment is and shall continue to be “at-will,” as defined under applicable law, except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in a written agreement between the Eligible Officer and the Company.

(c)    Exclusive Discretion. The Committee will have the exclusive discretion and authority to establish rules, forms, and procedures for the administration of the Policy and to construe and interpret the Policy and to decide any and all questions of fact, interpretation, definition, computation or administration arising in connection with the operation of the Policy, including, but not limited to, the eligibility to participate in the Policy and the amount of benefits paid under the Policy, and its rules, interpretations, computations and any other actions will be binding and conclusive on all persons.

(d)    CEO Authority and Discretion. With respect to a Non-Change in Control Termination or a Retirement of any Eligible Officer other than the CEO, the CEO may exercise discretion to deny any or all compensation payments or benefits under this Policy in the event (i) the Eligible Officer fails to comply with or agree to the terms of this Policy, (ii) the Eligible Officer fails to agree to reasonable requests made by the Company (e.g., the Company setting the Eligible Officer’s Termination Date), or (iii) the CEO determines that compensation payments or benefits under this Policy are not warranted based on the length or character of the Eligible Officer’s employment with the Company. The Committee will have authority and exclusive discretion regarding the application of this Policy to the CEO.

-7-

(e)    Notice. Notices and all other communications contemplated by this Policy shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when personally delivered upon acknowledgement of receipt, when sent by email or other electronic transmission, or when mailed by U.S. registered or certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. In the case of the Eligible Officer, mailed notices shall be addressed to them at their home address or email address shown on the Company’s corporate records, unless a different address is communicated to the Company in writing. In the case of the Company, mailed notices or notices sent via email shall be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notices shall be directed to the attention of the General Counsel.

(f)    No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Policy on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Policy.

(g)    Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Policy shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect or to any degree, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Policy shall not be affected thereby. The parties intend to give the terms of this Policy the fullest force and effect so that if any provision shall be found to be invalid or unenforceable, the court reaching such conclusion may modify or interpret such provision in a manner that shall carry out the parties’ intent and shall be valid and enforceable.

(h)    Successors. The Company shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Policy to an entity that, directly or indirectly, acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the Company. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Policy shall inure to the benefit and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. An Eligible Officer shall not have any right to assign their obligations under this Policy and shall only be entitled to assign their rights under this Policy upon their death, solely to the extent permitted by this Policy, or as otherwise agreed to by the Company.

(i)    Creditor Status of Eligible Officers. In the event that any Eligible Officer acquires a right to receive payments from the Company under this Policy, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

(j)    Governing Law. This Policy is intended to be governed by and will be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
